Such a result was what Xu Dayan and Su Chuoxier had expected. They looked at each other and smiled. They did not hold Na Miye and others responsible for defeating the mourning master. Instead, they held a banquet and treated several defeated soldiers.
The elders expressed their comfort. Then Su Chufuli took advantage of the situation and put forward the suggestion that soldiers from all ministries should be unified under Xi Xier's dispatch in the future.
The defeated elders no longer had many men to rely on. The fallen tribesmen were still waiting for Xu Dayan and Su Chuixil to find a way to rescue them, so they had no choice but to humbly agree to Su Chuo's request to secede.
Seeing that his orders were no longer supported by anyone, Chuo Xier brought in a captured elder of the Xi tribe and ordered him to swear an oath to the Immortal Heaven that he would not lead troops to invade again. Then he released him.
Go back and discuss the exchange of prisoners, corpses of the dead and war compensation for the Lin and Xi tribes.
There were far more prisoners and enemy corpses in the hands of the Zhulin coalition than those obtained by the Suotou Xi tribe in the final counterattack. Therefore, Xu Dayan offered a sky-high price and asked the elder named Wu Yile to bring a message to
After the two sides exchanged prisoners and corpses on a one-to-one basis, if the Xi people were willing to give 10,000 sheep to redeem all the remaining prisoners of war, the Zhuxin coalition would be willing to use the corpses of all the Xi people's dead in the war as an additional reward.
Return them to the Xi tribe for burial. If the Xi tribe cannot come up with so many sheep to ransom people, the value of a captured soldier is ten sheep, and the value of a corpse is three sheep. The general's ransom will be determined according to the number of troops he leads.
If the price rises, the elder's value will increase five times.
"Our Xi tribe cannot afford so many sheep!" Elder Wu Yile turned pale with anger and protested loudly. If the Xi people had enough sheep to support the tribe's survival, they would not brave the wind and snow to attack
The Zhuxin Alliance. Besides, the Xi tribe is not entirely responsible for this war. The tribes of the Xi tribe are refining their troops every day, so they may not be tempted to sneak attack on the Xi people in Suotou.
"If you can't get it out, you can gather it together in batches. The deadline is before the grass turns yellow next autumn. After this deadline, all the captives will be slaves here forever!" Su Chuixil said deliberately pretending to be sinister.
.Before proposing this sky-high price, he, Xu Dayan and others had already estimated Suotou Xiren's strength after this battle, and had long expected that the other party would not be able to pay the full ransom.
The reason why he offered a sky-high price was because Xu Dayan told him that the Zhulin coalition still needed time to train. In terms of personal bravery and force, the coalition warriors were unparalleled. In terms of tactical cooperation and battlefield coordination capabilities, the coalition soldiers were not a regular army at all.
adversary.
"The Immortal God will curse you evil-hearted profiteers!" Wu Yile cursed, turned around and walked out of the tent. Amidst the sneers of the tribal warriors, he took the dried meat and mare's milk that Suchuixil "sent" to him.
, mounted an old and thin horse that had lost its hair, and stumbled out of the camp.
When Miye and the others saw the other party's embarrassed look, they thought that if Su Chuofuli hadn't been there to pick him up on the way, he would be the one leaving Suotou Xibu like a bereaved dog at this moment. They were even more convinced of Xu Dayan in their hearts, and looked towards
Brother Su Chuixil's eyes also became a little more friendly.
Thinking of Su Chufu Li, the elders suddenly remembered another young man from the Han family named Fu Li. Ever since he returned to the camp after winning the battle that day, this young man had disappeared in front of everyone. If we talk about his merits in detail, this man's merits
I'm afraid it's not under Xu Da's eyes. Especially for the injuries of various tribes on the battlefield, without the support of the legend that the Holy Wolf once blessed the boy, they would not have been able to survive such serious injuries and still have a chance.
Survive.
Li Xu didn't know that the entire tribe was grateful for his benefits. After the victory in the camp robbery, he quietly returned to his tent. He was depressed and had no way to vent. Even the celebration banquet held by the Su Chuan tribe that night was reported as a headache.
The excuses have not gone away.
After finding a deserted corner to hide and get drunk, Li Xu suddenly became obsessed. Every morning before dawn, he would get up on horseback and dance with swords. After the sun came up, he would casually go to Aslan's house for some food.
Then he went to Duer's house to visit his sleeping companions, and then began to practice riding and shooting.
"If my martial arts skills were half, or even a quarter, of Brother Maogong's, I wouldn't have let Bashimi fall down and be hacked to death. And I wouldn't have let Dur lose an arm for me!"
While practicing my shooting skills hard, I blame myself at the same time.
When everyone went hunting that day, he was the first to raise his head. He ran to the Crescent Lake to create a chance for him to wash away his shame. Young Li Xu had never experienced any big storms, and suddenly he saw his companions around him one by one.
Dying in front of his eyes, it was easy for him to put the responsibility on his shoulders. Xu Dayan tried to persuade him many times but to no avail, so he had to let him slowly come to his senses.
Xu Dayan believed that Li Xu could free himself, but the young girl Tao Kuo was worried. Seeing Li Xu's stupid appearance, she no longer bothered to settle with him for his bad words that day to drive him away, but instead spent every day
They all brought fresh goat's milk to quench his thirst. Seeing that Li Xu's fingers had blood blisters from drawing the bow all day long, they specially asked for his father's jade finger cots and gave them to Li Xu to protect his hands.
Li Xu refused to accept such an expensive gift. He politely declined Tao Kuo Tuosi's kindness on the pretext that he used finger cots to affect the flexibility of his fingers. Tao Kuo Tuosi felt distressed when he saw his bloody hands and reminded him to always remind him.
It was the archery skills that damaged the bow. When Li Xu heard this, he thanked him loudly and put away his treasure. Then he went to the public treasury and borrowed five hard bows commonly used by the people of the Xi tribe for riding and archery, and practiced hard day and night.
"Silly Fu Li, you keep cumming, no one will care if you're exhausted!" Tao Kuo Tuo's eyes turned red with anger and he stomped away. After walking far away, he secretly turned around and faced that silly boy.
Very sad.
"The ideas of the Han people are different from those of us men. How about you ask Aunt Qing what to do specifically?" Eru saw that her sister was sad, so she quietly gave her some advice. The Han people all have exquisite hearts, like
Brother Xu used traps to defeat the enemy's army, and quietly used the enemy's hands to wipe out his father's opponents. I would not be able to find another one even if I searched all over the grassland. Although Fu Li looks better than Brother Xu.
Honest, who can be sure that his wisdom is shallower than Yueya Lake? Instead of trying to guess their thoughts, it is better to find a more attentive Han to help think of a solution. Besides, Aunt Qing and the two sisters have a deep relationship, so this is a small thing.
She shouldn't refuse if she's busy.
After Tao Kuotaosi listened to his sister's suggestion, the clouds on his face disappeared. He happily took a brush and got into Aunt Qing's tent with the excuse of asking for advice on painting skills. Two women, one big and one small, were in the tent.
After muttering for most of an hour, Aunt Qing finally gave her daughter a very pertinent advice as a person who had experienced it: "As a man, there are always some hurdles that he needs to go through on his own. Instead of feeling sorry for him and crying for him, why not
Give him a push from behind. After passing this hurdle, no matter how stupid his heart is, your shadow will still be left behind!"
The girl blinked her big watery eyes and thought for a long time, but she seemed to understand. She couldn't care less about the details of how to carve her own shadow in the other person's heart. How to help Li Xu overcome his own hurdles, but
It is a top priority in the eyes of young girls.
"Aunt Qing, he, he doesn't tell others what's in his heart!" The girl pouted her mouth in grievance, with tears in her eyes. Although Aunt Qing's suggestion was good, she didn't know why Li Xu was stupid.
I don't understand how I can try to help him solve his problem.
"Stupid girl, don't you have eyes? When did he start to be stupid and why? What does he want? Didn't you see or hear at all?" Aunt Qing stretched out her finger and tapped Tao Kuotuo.
Si forehead, said lovingly.
This is the good thing about the daughter of the Lin tribe, she can love or hate. Unlike when I was in Jiangnan, I had many things to say but dared not say them to anyone. The family rules constrained all behaviors. Even if I was thinking in my heart, I could only
Hide it tightly until all memories have turned yellow.
"Him?" Tao Kuotaosi finally got some insights. After summarizing the causes and consequences of the Battle of Crescent Lake, he came to the conclusion that Fu Li was resentful of his own poor swordsmanship and his inaccuracy with bows and arrows, which resulted in the pain. But the girl herself
His sword skills are even worse, and his archery skills were originally better than Fu Li's, but now they are probably not as good as Fu Li's. There are really limited ways in which he can help him.
"Alas!" Aunt Qing saw the girl's worry about gains and losses, and her heart was full of pity. She stretched out her hand to hold Tao Kuotaosi in her arms, patted her back and comforted her: "You don't know how to do it yourself, you can ask others to teach her.
.I guess he already has a clue about the skill of riding and shooting. As for the scimitar, you take him to the coppersmith and tell him that I asked him to teach Fu Li martial arts!"
"Thank you Aunt Qing!" Tao Kuotaosi happily broke away from his arms and saluted Aunt Qing repeatedly.
The coppersmith surnamed Wang in the tribe has unparalleled wrestling skills. No herdsman half as young as him can defeat him. If he, a Han Chinese, teaches Fu Li, it will definitely be ten times more effective than other people's guidance. If Fu Li then trains the coppersmith
I have learned half of the sincerity in treating Aunt Xilin... The girl's fair skin slowly turned pink, and her eyes were brighter than the stars in the night sky in an instant.
Aunt Qing's words definitely made sense. After listening to the girl's suggestion that he go to the coppersmith Wang to learn skills, Li Xu really stopped being "crazy". The arrow in his hand flew out with a whoosh and hit the bull's-eye fifty steps away, and then packed up.
Good at bows and arrows, he walked towards the group of felt bags belonging to Wang Bronzesmith.
"You're just going like this?" The girl stomped her feet in protest.
"Oh!" Li Xu woke up from his dream, walked back and unhooked the horse assigned to him for his military exploits from the wooden stake, held it in his hand, and headed towards the direction of Wang Bronzesmith's house again.
"Being a disciple in the Central Plains requires a ceremony of apprenticeship. Tao Kuotosi, thank you for reminding me!" Li Xu, who had misunderstood the meaning, said in a smart way as he walked away, completely unable to understand the girl's painstaking treatment of him.
"Get out!" Tao Kuo Tuosi scolded, tears streaming down his eyes. Li Xu saw the girl suddenly turned against him, and was stunned in place by the scolding. He didn't know what he had done wrong, and offended the tribe again.
Weird woman gets angry.
The girl shed tears for a while, but when she saw Li Xu's stupid look, she was so angry that she smiled. She wiped away her tears, stepped forward, took the other person's hand and said, "I'll go with you, in case the coppersmith doesn't recognize him."
