The night covers the hills, and the leaves are swaying. They pass through the woods, and the mountains near the hills cast a faint light of fire. It is a cave.

The wind blew through the entrance of the cave, and it was whistling. People were heard in the cave, and occasionally the sound of horses could be heard. In the stone cave hall, the thick porridge in the iron pot was boiling. Some people took large pieces of dried meat and peeled out the meat bit by bit, emitting an attractive aroma. Around them, hundreds of people rescued from the Huns looked nervously against the wall of the cave, and looked vigilantly at the group of horse thieves nearby, or at the iron pot cooking meat porridge and licked their lips.

Dongfang Sheng scooped a bowl of meat porridge, blew it, and handed it to a ragged woman. The other party's face was frightened and nervously shrank back, staring at the pottery bowl in his hand with numbness.

"It will be a blessing every day..." He opened his original intention to say, but then closed his mouth again. Not only the women in front of him, but many of them are like her here. Dongfang Sheng is not stupid, so he naturally understands what kind of treatment they have suffered before.

What's more, those who were rescued were used as items by Gongsun Zhi to negotiate with the government. After all, there were only a few who truly understood the truth in the words, so they were still scared of these people who were thieves.

The smell of blood was everywhere in the air, and several seriously injured people could not support it. The body was carried away by the minions, which caused panic. Dongfang Sheng stood up and asked someone to share the meat porridge in the pot with everyone. Only then did the hungry people feel a little stable.

The cave was going inside, and the torches were burning.

"When you have safely passed tonight, you will take a few brothers to choose some of them, so that the surviving brothers will be assigned by the head, and one or two or a few can be taught well. They are all from the northern borders, not that delicate, and there should be no problem riding a horse for two days. Our horses must take good care of them. Those who are injured and cannot fight will be pulled out and slaughtered, and they may be made into jerky. They may go out again in a few days, and the newly added people will also go out..."

In the dim fire, Gongsun Zhi was talking with the bald figure. After the first confrontation with the Huns, although he won, he lost half of his manpower. At that time, the horse thieves did not collapse and still depended on the help of wolves. Otherwise, one of them would run away timidly, and the one behind would be like an avalanche. If he wanted to survive, he had to make some arrangements. Even if he had not done these things at the beginning, he would have to force himself to adapt.

"... Only those who survive on the battlefield can be considered elite. We don't have many people, so we naturally cannot afford it. But there is no way. We don't have enough time. Only when the Huns robbed the border and the government has no time to pay attention to it can we build a large team. This is what I reacted when I saw Zhang Liao. If it were normal, they would probably have been doing the task of encircling us."

Gongsun Zhi's voice sounded under the torch light. The strong man sitting opposite him nodded from time to time and listened quietly, like a well-behaved student. Then, after thinking about some details, he frowned and asked, "It's good to pull the team up, but these newly added people have almost no combat power. The leader, if too many people die, people's hearts are in chaos. I'm afraid no one is willing to continue to work with us."

"What about food?" Gongsun Zhi bit off a piece of meat.

Gao Sheng laughed.

"The north has always been short of food and clothing. Many people just didn't take that step. I just pushed them and took them out. They were just wolf." After swallowing the meat, Gongsun Zhi stared at the bald man opposite: "Besides, I won't let them die easily. When I came back, didn't I mention that I had an idea? Now I have some clues, but it's not perfect yet, so let's talk about what I thought before."

The big man put down the sheep ribs in his hand, licked his fingers, and sat up straight. He was becoming more and more convinced by the young man. At this time, the other party was about to express his future plans. As the former leader of the Yellow Turban, he seemed to have returned to the tent of the coach and listened to the lectures of the Digong General.

"......We are in the north, facing the Huns and Xianbei. They grew up on horseback. If they want to have a foothold, they must have the same but different style of playing like them."

With a wild and rough body walking around, Gongsun Zhi continued: "I thought of the wolves. The wolves will not be hard against the powerful prey, but will adopt tactics such as roundabouts, hunting, siege, fatigue, etc. We have horses and bows and arrows. I will tell you these things in person, so I think no matter what new ones are joining or our old brothers, one person will have two bows, long-bow long-range shots, short-bow close shots, and no hand-to-hand combat with the other party, everything will be based on the command."

"Riding and shooting?" Gao Sheng pondered for a moment, "It's difficult to ride and shooting. Even if the old brothers are good at riding skills now, they may not be able to improve accuracy on the horse's back. Those newly added may not even ride horses steadily."

Gongsun Zhi waved his hand and said with a high tone: "It's okay. You can practice first in the past few days. Although time is tight, it is not useless. The one who can really train troops is on the battlefield. As long as you go to the land of life and death, people will fight to the death. If you don't fight to the death, you have to wait for death. In the past few days, your brothers will train them hard, ride horses, shoot arrows, and teach them all the skills. Whoever hides their own personalities will hit someone's board."

"Yes!" Gao Sheng's expression was serious, and he stood up and clasped his fists.

Over there, the words paused for a moment and slowed down: "There is another thing. You can look for this group of people to see if there are people who know how to work in carpentry. Let's make this work and do a few more."

He handed over a slightly stinky wolf throat.

After everything was explained, Gao Sheng pinched the wolf's throat and did not leave immediately. He whispered: "Chief, after returning, a brother asked me quietly, can you find a girl... After all, everyone is used to being a horse thief... and can't hold back."

As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the figure of the meat steak and stared at him silently. After a while, he spoke: "Yes, but you have to voluntarily. If you look for it, you will marry the other party. Many of these women have been ruined by the Huns. Even if they are discussed behind their backs, they will one day not be able to stand gossip... Marrying your brothers can save their lives."

"This..." Gao Sheng clenched his scalp and his head didn't turn around for a while. Why did he get married? "Then our combat power will be greatly reduced. Everyone will have concerns at that time, who will fight to the death?"

"Then have you ever wondered if the horse thief who has a family will sacrifice his life to protect his family? If he has children and they are all living in the White Wolf, they will only work harder, and I...relaxed."

Gongsun Zhi increased his tone of the last few words, with a smile on his face, the fire swayed, and his eyes looked sinister in the light and darkness.
