The battlefield was finally cleared and all resistance was eliminated, leaving only the old, weak, women and children.
At this time, the guards supervised the search and seizure of the camp accounts, which totaled 70,000 taels of silver, not including gold and silver jewelry. The population of 1,000 was now only 600, and the women and children were all gathered together.
At this time, Jiang Chen came over and reported: "Among them are three hundred Wei women and one hundred women from Nancang County. These one hundred are all young women. They were robbed. Some have children, some have not yet given birth..."
Ye Qing understood the meaning and nodded: "These four hundred can be fully accepted. It doesn't matter if you have children. Mother and son or mother and daughter can be accepted together. The previous generation of Northern Wei women were Southern women. This second generation can also speak Mandarin and is specially registered.
.”
"My lord is kind," Jiang Chen responded and left happily.
The life span of women on the grassland is very short. Most of them begin to lose their appearance in their twenties and die from overwork before they are forty. Therefore, many women were kidnapped from the south and suffered miserably. Therefore, not only were they not angry with Ye Qingkulie, but they
His heart is filled with joy, this is his ideal lord
"Having reproduced for several generations, they were assimilated by the Northern Wei Dynasty. Let's not talk about it. They were just kidnapped. Compared with the cultural education and living conditions since childhood, will they accept the barbaric cultural environment and live as hard as the female slaves? Surely they can be treated differently." Watching Jiang Chen go away
Ye Qing thought to himself.
A group of disheveled women were brought out after screening. Some were wearing prairie clothes, and some were still wearing tops and skirts.
"As long as Zhongyuan Zhengshuo can stand upright for one day, the hearts of all people will not be destroyed. It is strange that they can be assimilated." Saying this, Ye Qing couldn't be happy.
Some of them were tortured and haggard in their twenties. When they saw the imperial officers and soldiers, and Ye Qing, who was like a general, they even cried bitterly in the camp and knelt down: "Today I finally see the heavenly officials and heavenly soldiers... But why did I come..."
Some of the Ye family soldiers looked sideways at the patrol camp. Strictly speaking, these people were the representatives of the imperial court, but when the patrol camp saw them, they were speechless... and some even hid their faces in shame.
Ye Qing watched silently and did not hesitate. After a long time, he gave the order: "Drive up the ox cart, including the wounded soldiers and the corpses of the dead. I will send a team of cavalry to escort them back. They are still young and can recover after good health."
"Also, these seven thousand cattle, sheep, and one thousand horses are driven all the way back. No one has to buy it. If you want to do this, you have to wait for me to come back."
It was arranged that a group of ethnic soldiers would be at Xiping Pass to meet him when he returned.
The army was regrouping, and Ye Qing said: "For the remaining Northern Wei people, select some girls with good quality and supple posture to stay in the mansion. Those who are basically adaptable can be left to work, and those who are really disobedient can be sold. There are some.
The family is willing to take over the training."
Some people felt very sorry after hearing this: "Why not keep them all, and they will all obey in a few years."
Ye Qing smiled and did not explain, how could he have this time to waste... The world has changed, and we only seize the day.
They have been trained in camping in the wild, especially the patrol camp. It was originally a regular army, so they camped in an orderly manner, and they still had their original tents.
They moved away from the place that was originally full of corpses and set up camp in front of the stream. After a while, pots and stoves were set up one by one, and smoke was curling up.
Ye Qing was not stingy at this time and ordered every ten people to kill a sheep and the officers to kill an ox, which immediately caused the army to cheer and talk and laugh loudly.
Ye Qing took a look around and found that after several battles, the general condition was good, and there was no vomiting or inability to eat meat.
After a while, the water in the pot boiled, and it was full of mutton. I put some salt and green onions, and threw some vegetables into it. The fire was so high that I even brought a few bottles of wine. Now I poured some into it. Suddenly, the meat was fragrant and the wine was fragrant.
It rises into the sky, and the fragrance overflowing makes people salivate.
The soldier swallowed his saliva and took out the big cake from his bag. It was already cold at this time, but when he put it on the baking pan, the sound of sizzling was endless and the aroma was fragrant.
"Come on, come on, eat." With the command, the whole army immediately started gobbling up the food, and there was a burst of laughter, and all the tension and sadness were swept away.
In the center, it was the same at this time. Ye Qing, Jiang Chen, Zhang Fangbiao, Hong Zhou and others were all devouring it, but instead of mutton, it was a calf.
Even these people couldn't enjoy the calf. At this time, they were stuffing pieces of beef into their mouths. Ye Qing looked at it with a smile and only said: "Slow down, be careful not to choke."
Everyone just responded vaguely and continued to devour. Ye Qing didn't say much. After a while, Zhang Fangbiao dropped a piece of cow bone and said: "The beating was smoother just now. I asked and found out that it turned out that this
It is a new tribe that was just separated from the larger tribe, and there are many southern girls in it. This is because the new tribe originally had more boys and fewer girls, so it increased its plundering of property from the girls in the south."
"Hmph, the words of these women were horrible and made people's nose sore. I didn't listen much and hid..."
Zhang Fangbiao was originally from the frontier. He encountered military disasters every year and felt the same way.
Jiang Chen just cursed: "This is because the local officials are incompetent and cannot protect them. They also deny theft and fail to report it. Otherwise, how could these tribes be so rampant?"
Hong Zhou said: "The imperial court mobilized troops this time, hoping to create a prestige, just like Taizu's early years, which caused the Northern Wei Dynasty to retreat hundreds of miles away and not dare to enter a single soldier."
Everyone nodded. Ye Qing closed his eyes and was speechless. He asked Zhou Ling to unfold the military map and said in a deep voice: "This time, we are going to do something big. How can we go back if we don't retaliate ten times and a hundred times?"
Everyone perked up and saw Ye Qing's finger pointing past the second target and pointing directly at a sign on the west side of the map, which was specifically marked: Tribe with dual surnames.
"Two closely married tribes are a characteristic of the grassland."
The purple disc in the White Jade Bookstore in Sichuan Lin Notes shows that before the Wei surname came to dominate the desert, there were still some members of the royal family, but they were all wiped out by Wei Shizong. This Wei Shizong was the emperor of the Wei Dynasty.
The power of the Wei Dynasty entered the grassland and created a new world.
Not to mention his great talents, he was the last emperor recognized by heaven in the Northern Wei Dynasty genealogy, leaving great strength and fame to his successors.
"This dual-surname tribe has a population of 5,000 and has over a thousand horsemen. It is the leader among small tribes. It has repeatedly attacked the transportation and sales of my bamboo leaf green wine in the grassland."
Ye Qing glanced at them and saw that all the generals were fighting high-spirited and looking at them intently.
Ye Qing stopped instigating and rubbed the tribe with his fingers: "It's rare for him to come to the grassland. How can I tolerate him? As long as this tribe is destroyed, I will have the courage to write to the court to ask for credit."
All the generals responded, and the victory gave them great confidence.
Only Jiang Chen had a secret concern in his eyes. He was familiar with military books and knew that the number of cavalry in the thousands would create a qualitative change, but it was hard to express it.
Ye Qing didn't say anything. He knew that this tribe was difficult to fight, so he purposely did this in order to give this army the edge to fight a tough battle. Now with the help of the right time, coupled with the use of Taoist talismans, the morale of the army's winning streak would be maximized to maximize its combat power.
It is already the rarest peak state of military strength.
If you can't fight even this, will you still shrink when you face a tidal wave of enemies in the future and when the weather is unfavorable?
Do you still need the initiative?
The two tribes were a little further away. They rushed to the outskirts at night on the third day and only rested for two hours when another wave of heavy rain and wind hit.
Quietly cover up three miles from this tribe's camp
With the sound of horse hooves, a bloody scout came over: "Report - we encountered scouts from other armies in the south. Our team killed three and two died.
"Been ambushed by design?" The generals looked at each other, and the first feeling was this, unbelievable: "Have you found out who the other party is?"
"Bringing a body"
"Whoever dares to openly help the grassland is not afraid of having his or her house confiscated and executed?"
"The south side... came across the ridge from the direction of Huoshan?" Ye Qing calmed down and smiled: "This is a standard secret attack method, it can be said to be an ambush, but we are a temporary target, and the time is completely wrong...
...explore again and prepare to meet the enemy.”
A few minutes is longer than a few years.
Another team of scouts came over: "Ten miles away from here, the enemy's position was south to west, heading due north, and suddenly stopped. I also saw this flag."
"Ten miles to the southwest and to the north?" Ye Qing was startled for a moment, then looked at the small tribe under the dark clouds to the west, and suddenly realized that this army was also going to attack this tribe, but it was not in position yet.
The scout drew the flag, and the generals looked at it and were all surprised: "No way... this is the flag of the Yu family army. Isn't this clan an ally of the Yu family?"
"The imperial court has decided to take action against the Northern Wei Dynasty. It has to position itself correctly. Once the situation changes, it will fall out with its former allies." Ye Qing sneered and said meaningfully: "Look, this is the family of the commander-in-chief."
Rough-skinned and thick-bodied, with an unbridled thirst for blood... Which of these so-called noble families is not such a big shark?
Ye Qing was very impressed by this. I don't know how many county noble families and middle-level tribes have grown up by fighting against each other in the past few years. The unlucky ones were all the big families and small tribes in the county - this is why he tried his best to push the family to the county crown.
reason.
In the buffer period between the lunar eclipse and the solar eclipse, if it goes too high, it will be directly suppressed by the imperial court and the Northern Wei Dynasty. If it goes too low, it can only be reduced to cannon fodder. In the true sense, only this middle layer has the greatest room to play and deal with the first
A great calamity.
As for the second wave, he must become the prince of Yingzhou like Yu Fan in his previous life... As for the third wave, no mortal forces can control it.
Step by step, take the lead step by step... I can catch up in this game
Thinking like this, Ye Qing smiled: "Don't worry about them. Once the Yu family army attacks, we will attack together."
"Do you want to say hello to the Yu Jiajun?" a general of the patrol battalion asked.
"What are you afraid of?" Ye Qing narrowed his eyes. Knowing the doubts in his heart, he only sneered: "There is no turning back arrow. Once the Yu family attacks, there will be no turning back."
"Our army's attack is based on cooperation and friendship. Is it possible that he dares to risk a second-line battle and start a war with us?"
"If you dare to do this, even if I can't kill him, I can still lead you to break out of the encirclement. At this time... haha, if you openly collude with the grassland to deal with the imperial army, the Yu family will die."
Everyone looked at each other and fell silent. As an army of the imperial court, they were extremely confident in their internal suppression.
"Zhou Ling, wave the flag," Ye Qing ordered decisively.
With the battlefield prestige accumulated from the two days of great victories, no one dared to question the official military order, and the entire army lined up.
