After some detailed inquiries, Shen Tang was immediately overjoyed.
"Barumu, Munda listen to the order! I order you to lead your troops and immediately go to join General Xin Qiji, and help General Xin Qiji remove the poisonous insects and defeat the Tubo army! As for the poisonous insect tribe..."
At this point, Shen Tang paused for a moment before continuing, "If they can sincerely join us and be used by us, then just like the Poison Ivy clan, they will join our army and return to Mongolia." Datong leader is it.
If they don’t want to submit, huh! There’s no need for them to exist.”
"As you command!"
Balumu and the other two immediately agreed to the order, especially Namunda, who was even more happy! This is the benefit of being the first to join.
In the past, my tribe was just similar to the poisonous insect tribe, but now, once they are captured, they can only be ruled by me.
Fortunately, I didn't resist at the beginning, otherwise, apart from becoming a ghost under the sword, how could I be as prosperous as I am now.
"Don't worry, Commander. I will do my best to help you generals conquer the Poisonous Insect Tribe."
With these two people going, Shen Tang naturally doesn't need to go there himself.
Moreover, with the means to restrain those poisonous insects, the Tubo people would have nowhere to escape.
Xin Qiji led 30,000 troops, plus thousands of Balumu's personal guards and the troops of the Poison Ivy tribe, which was more than double the number of the Tubo army. If the Tubo people could not be defeated, then this battle would be unnecessary. After the fight is over, it's better to go back to Lin'an directly...
The Poison Insect tribe is similar in size to the Poison Ivy tribe, with only tens of thousands of tribesmen.
With the advantage of local people, every move of Shen Tang and others could not escape their sight. Therefore, when Shen Tang and others entered Chengdu Fulu Road, the local tribes and Tubo people knew the news.
Shen Tang divided his troops into two groups, each with tens of thousands of troops. Although the Tubo invaded with more than 100,000 troops, it was obviously impossible to gather a large army to completely block the Song army in a short period of time.
However, they were the closest and only had about 20,000 soldiers who could be dispatched.
Therefore, the Tubo commander ordered the 20,000 soldiers to join forces with the local tribes and find ways to stop the Song army, or at least delay their progress.
As long as they are given a certain amount of time, they can completely capture the city of Chengdu. By then, almost the entire city of Chengdu will be under their control. They have plenty of time and methods to eliminate this Song army.
Teaming up with the Poison Ivy Tribe to ambush the Song Army was the first step! Originally, in their plan, although they did not ambush many soldiers, they could at least cause some casualties to the Song Army, and even directly defeat them. Not necessarily impossible.
When the time comes, the remaining defeated soldiers will come to Mianzhou City and be swallowed up directly by their main army.
But their plan went awry from the beginning.
Their ambush failed to achieve its original purpose, and the layout of Mianzhou City went bankrupt due to Xin Qiji's caution.
Therefore, these Tubo people could only retreat to the territory of the poisonous insect tribe and act according to the opportunity.
In the house of the patriarch of the Poisonous Chong tribe, several tribe elders and Tubo generals were having a banquet.
But I saw the leading Tubo general drank all the wine in one gulp, and then said unhappily, "Humph, that Qiang people dare not obey our orders. When these Song troops are dealt with, we must teach them a lesson."
The Qiang people are the top tribe in the entire Chengdu Fulu, and they have terrifying power in the north.
Just like tribes like Poison Insect and Poison Ivy, even three or five of them together are definitely no match for the Qiang tribe.
Moreover, there are so many Qiang tribes that they can even gather an army of 20,000 to 30,000 people.
If there is help from the Qiang people, the Song army can definitely be defeated in the north of Chengdu Prefecture.
However, although the Qiang people united with the Tubo people, they obviously did not want to become weapons in the hands of the Tubo people.
It would not do them any good to use their own strength to fight against the Song Dynasty, whether they win or lose. Instead, it would be more in their interests to sit back and watch the war between Tubo and the Song Dynasty.
Moreover, the Qiang people are different from small tribes such as the Poison Ivy tribe. The Qiang people ignore the Tubo people. Under the current situation, the Tubo people will not go to war against the Qiang people.
But these small tribes obviously had no more choices. Facing the Tubo people, they did not have the courage and strength to refuse.
This is why Shen Tang and others only encountered these small tribes and Tubo people.
"Haha, why should the general be angry?"
The leader of the poisonous insect tribe laughed loudly, "The Qiang tribe is indeed powerful, but we may not have to rely on them.
Without the help of the Qiang people, if the general could destroy these Song troops, wouldn't the credit be greater?"
"These Song troops are quite numerous and indeed not weak in strength, but they are in other places.
In our Poison Ivy territory, no matter how many they come, they can only be our merit!"
"With the help of our poisonous Zerg tribe, it's good that the general can drink here with peace of mind! However, when we defeat the Song army, we hope that the general will give our poisonous Zerg tribe a few good words in front of the commander! After all, we are different from other tribes .
Other tribes have other thoughts, but we, the Poisonous Insect Tribe, are sincerely united with the nobles..."
Facing the flattery of the Poisonous Insect tribe, the Tubo general also showed a bit of a smile on his face!
"Don't worry, I am a close confidant of the Commander-in-Chief. As long as I speak, the Commander-in-Chief will almost never refuse! I, the General, know that you are not satisfied with the status of your own ethnic group, but as long as we have the support of Tubo, although you will be able to It's a little difficult to become the top five tribes, but it can be done by getting you to join the decision-making team."
"As long as you serve me faithfully, I will never treat you badly."
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. After Shen Tang entered Chengdu Fulu, one was to sow discord between the local tribes and the Tubo people, and the other was to open a gap for the local tribes.
The Tubo people are certainly not fools. They certainly know that although these local tribes have united with them, they will not easily become their pawns.
Therefore, at the suggestion of the Tubo people, many local tribes united.
It is the alliance of hundreds of tribes that the elder of the Poison Ivy tribe mentioned before.
Since it is an alliance, these tribes will naturally be divided into high and low levels! Tribes as powerful as the Qiang tribe naturally occupy a dominant position, but these small tribes can only act under the intentions of the larger tribes.
Once there are levels, there will be injustice, and this is one of the purposes of the Tubo people.
These tribes could not work together, so they gave the Tubo people an opportunity. They secretly communicated with some small and medium-sized tribes and supported them in all aspects, making them the potential power and eyes and ears of the Tubo people among these tribes.
