After launching their first blockade, the Tiger Tribe realized that they had encountered a strong enemy, and their illusions of wiping out the enemy halfway across the border were shattered.
The village wall of the Tiger tribe was made of rammed earth, and the height of the rammed earth wall was only 5 or 6 meters, which could only guard against the people who stole chickens and dogs, and if faced with the attack of the regular troops, the earth wall of such a high height was just like a sham. Tiger tribe in launching the second interception, has organized the tribe of women and children old and weak to drive livestock, with cattle and mules loaded with belongings and food, escorted the original captured to the small tribes of indigenous people to transfer, villages and cottages because of the tiger tribal chiefs counting on the later recapture, did not set fire to burn down. The second blockade of the Tiger Tribe, in addition to wanting to defeat the enemy to save their homes, the other is to delay the enemy's attack, to buy enough time for the tribe to move.
Before the valley army marched towards the Tiger Tribe's village, batches of scouts were constantly released, scouts are also known as scouts, scouts report back the news they scouted to the larger troops, who would adjust their battle plans according to the latest movements of the enemy. Zhou Cheng, after learning that the Tiger Tribe was organizing to launch a second blockade while letting the tribal people prepare to retreat, immediately formulated countermeasures, the cavalry battalion's more than three hundred cavalrymen using miscellaneous horses as warhorses were dispatched to chase the Tiger Tribe's retreating tribesmen, making sure to stop the retreating Tiger Tribe's team and snatch Tiger Tribe's property into their hands.
Tiger tribe's strong warriors have gone to intercept the valley army, to protect the retreat of the tribal people are not strong tribal people, these tribal people are facing the cavalry riding not very obedient horse, but when the cavalry catch up and dismounted to fight with them, Tiger tribe's weak men can't hold back, coupled with the Tiger tribe's capture of small tribal tribal people in the battlefield, to help the cavalry combined to wipe out the Tiger tribe's tribal people who had the ability to fight, and those who had the ability to fight were killed without organizing an effective counter-pit. Those who were able to fight were killed without organizing an effective counterattack. The Tiger Tribe's property soon fell under the control of the cavalry.
Wei Qing led the vanguard arrived, the cavalry is riding all over the plains searching for frightened livestock, the tiger tribe of women and children fleeing in all directions, as long as it is empty-handed escape are ignored. If the backpack driving mules, cattle and sheep livestock to escape, will be in hot pursuit, not to the property chase to not stop.
In this military operation of the valley army, more than 100 warriors of the Tiger tribe were annihilated and more than 300 were captured, more than 30 warriors of the two tribes allied with the Tiger tribe were annihilated and more than 400 were captured, more than 50 weaklings of the Tiger tribe were killed by the cavalry and more than 400 women, children, old and weak of the Tiger tribe were captured. Gold more than ten pounds, gold more than one hundred, brocade and silk more than two dozen, more than 200 big and small cattle, more than 300 sheep, more than 30 mules, more than 50 pigs, countless chickens and ducks, more than 1,000 stones of grain, a complete village and fortress. Up to this point, the Tiger Tribe's escaped more than 200 warriors, tribesmen more than 1,200 tribesmen, most of these 1,200 tribesmen are bare hands before escaping from the hands of the valley soldiers.
Valley soldiers in the military operation sacrificed nine people, seriously injured twenty people, slightly injured more than sixty people, because the Tiger Tribe used only a small part of the weapons are made of metal, light injured people are not injured to a great extent, will not be life-threatening, seriously injured people can save a large part of the life.
Compared to the Tiger Tribe Alliance's sizable number of 200 casualties and countless minor and serious injuries, the price paid by the Valley's army for this military operation was quite small, not to mention the rich spoils of war that made the army's casualty numbers seem worthwhile.
Chu Chao Hui received the report of the front line's success and brought his guards and the elders of the Tuoxiong and Eagle tribes to the edge of the Su Plains to see the fruits of victory.
"Zhou Cheng, did the accompanying healers treat the Tiger Tribe's wounded."
Chu Chao Hui found that among the Tiger Tribe warriors who were disarmed and sitting on the ground with their heads hanging down, several of them had wounds on their bodies that had not been bandaged and were dripping blood.
"Reporting sir, after the healers finished treating the wounded soldiers of our unit, they have already started treating the seriously wounded prisoners, and they have not yet taken care of these lightly wounded prisoners." Zhou Cheng was successful in his first solo military command, and his face carried excitement.
The accompanying healers in the army were all disciples brought out by healer Jiang and two other old healers, and healer Jiang personally followed them this time, treating the wounded soldiers with the twenty-first century method of saving wounds, and for healer Jiang, having several hundred wounded for him to practice clinically was an opportunity for him to validate the results of his medical work, and healer Jiang was busy with his work.
"Lord Chu, don't save the Tiger Tribe's captives, let them fend for themselves, it's their luck to survive, dying will save food." An elder of the Eagle Tribe looked at the moaning Tiger Tribe's wounded and felt really relieved in his heart, this elder had experienced the brutal tribal war twenty years ago, and resented the Tiger Tribe extremely deeply, he couldn't wait for the Tiger Tribe's people to die all together before it was too late.
"No! no! These captives must be saved, they must not be allowed to die, when these wounded recover, they will add to the Eagle Tribe." Chu Chao Hui shook his head, disapproving of the Eagle Tribe's elder's opinion.
"Adding to the Eagle Tribe?" Takao was filled with doubt, the enemy could add to them?
"They will all be good miners who don't need to be paid in the future!" Chu Chao Hui smiled faintly, these Tiger Tribe warriors were physically strong, and they definitely had more strength than the average person when digging up mines.
"Haha, not bad, in the future the miners have it." After Tuoxiong and the elders understood what Chu Chaohui meant, one by one, their eyes began to glow, and their gaze on the Tiger Tribe warriors was no longer hateful, but rather they were looking at the money making machine. Thinking that their enemies would have to make wealth for them under their whips, the Eagle Tribe chiefs and elders' faces glowed red.
Takusu's arrival embarrasses the happy Eagle Tribe elders as Takusu comes to tattle on them.
Tuosu young and impulsive, he went to Chu Chao Hui in front of the complaint, has been and cavalry battalion commander ZengYou quarrel, that ZengYou bandit origin, this life untamed, to Tuosu's accusation of where willing to admit, ZengYou not only do not admit negligence, but also words mean irony, ridicule Tuosu fire since so big, why not go to catch up with the whole world by themselves. The two men if not have Wei Qing pulling the fight, it is estimated that now has been three hundred rounds of war.
After Chu Chao Hui heard Tuo Su's complaint, he was furious on the spot, Zhou Cheng and Zeng You were both punished and were relegated to guard duty at Su Plain, these two men will take turns to lead the soldiers in the village garrison left behind by the Tiger Tribe, and from now on, they will protect the Eagle Tribe's safety here. When the Tiger Tribe is completely eliminated, the garrison can be withdrawn back to the northern part of the Yangtze River. In order to ensure that the garrison has material maintenance in the garrison, the two tribes that are allied with the Tiger Tribe have been placed in the garrison, and in order to make these two tribes feel at ease to plant their land in the Su Plain, Chu Chaohui also allowed Wei Qing to lead the troops to attack the two tribes, and the two tribes were defeated and surrendered, and the population of more than a thousand people was forced to migrate to Su Plain to plant their food. Cultivating grain.
For the collected booty, Chu Chao Hui did not keep it all, gold and gold transported back to the valley, three hundred plowing oxen left fifty in the Su Plain Resident, distributed to the Eagle Tribe fifty, transported back to Nambu one hundred, the valley one hundred. Sheep and mules are also distributed according to this ratio, chickens, ducks and pigs left a part of the reward combat troops, the other and brocade and silk together are given to the Eagle Tribe, a time, the army and the Eagle Tribe up and down the overflowing joy.
After dealing with the spoils of war, the army began to retreat in an orderly manner, the cavalry battalion withdrew only a hundred cavalrymen, the two infantry battalions went back eight hundred men, and more than three hundred cavalrymen and two hundred infantrymen were left in the villages and strongholds of the Plain Tiger tribe. The indigenous men of the two tribes who were relocated here began to raise the rammed earth wall and build water conservancy in preparation for spring plowing. In addition to the two tribes allied with the Tiger Tribe being forced to migrate, some small tribes that were not firm in their stance were also demolished by force and moved to the Su Plain village.
The Tiger Tribe's population was not large, only more than 2,500 people, the Su Plain, which was ten times the size of Nambu, was not developed much by them, and a lot of the area was overgrown with weeds, Chu Chao Hui was going to reclaim the farmland here and at the same time develop animal husbandry and set up a horse ranch here, the valley and Nambu were not suitable for a horse ranch, while Su Plain was not only suitable for setting up a horse ranch, but it was also a good place for cavalry training. Su Plain would be a training base for cavalry in the future. Of course, the infantry would often be sent here for combat maneuvers in the name of rotation, and the hostile target would be the remnants of the Tiger Tribe in the mountains to the south of Su Plain.
When the valley army had finished retreating, the chief and elders of the Eagle Tribe brought in the lead warriors who had followed the valley soldiers in battle, and asked the warriors to talk about what had happened when the valley soldiers fought the Tiger Tribe.
The valley army's military action against the tiger tribe, the feeling to the eagle tribe warriors is that the whole army team is forbidden to act as one, the soldiers' equipment is bullish, the weapons are sharp, and every weapon is a treasure weapon, the tiger tribe's backward weapons are like eggs touching a stone against them. And the valley soldiers' bows and crossbows are quite powerful, not only the range is far, the arrows are also with metal, the tail has feathers, the hitting rate of shooting the enemy is quite high.
Tuosu is one of the most excited to say, before he went to the battlefield, Chu Chao Hui sent a set of soldier's equipment to him, the same as the valley soldier's equipment Tuosu, in the battlefield to kill the hostile enemy to kill very painful, Tuosu's memories, he was cut down by the Tiger Tribe warriors there are seven, he himself only arm and thigh a bit of flesh wounds, after the Jiang Gui's bandage, there is no major harm.
"Pops! Tosu wants to join the army across the river." Takusu's battlefield report summary quote is amazing.
"Nonsense! How can you break away from the tribe." When Takao heard this, his eyebrows rose, and if there weren't a lot of people present, Takao would have wanted to slap his son.
"How is going to Lord Chu and Lord Zheng to join the army a way to break away from the tribe? Isn't our Eagle Tribe like brothers with the other side of the river? How can brothers be separated from each other?" Tuosu was unimpressed.
"The Qin people on the north coast are different from our tribesmen, they can only be Huben if they have a high status, you can only be an auxiliary soldier when you go, and auxiliaries are like slaves." One of the oldest elders of the Eagle Tribe had a better understanding of the Great Qin situation.
"I am the son of the chief of the Eagle Tribe, isn't this status enough?" Tuosu stood up his chest, a kind of primitive democracy was practiced in the Eagle Tribe, except for the captives, the tribesmen of the Eagle Tribe were all equal to each other, due to Tuoxiong's great contribution to the Eagle Tribe, he had a very high prestige among the tribes, the tribesmen were exceptionally respectful to the chief's family, Tuoxiong's family could enjoy privileges everywhere in the tribes, and Tuosu felt that he was the aristocrat in the Eagle Tribe.
Tuo Xiong looked at the young and vigorous son, can not help but long sigh, Tuosu rely on the help of Zheng Chu two people, led the tribal warriors swept around the small tribes, in the tribe of the prestige day by day, the tribal people have a large part of the default Tuosu as the future chief, the tribal people of the reverence, so that Tuosu forgot to forget that the natives of the south of the Yangtze River in the eyes of the people of the Great Qin is just as low as the slaves.
"Tuosu, the first warrior of our Eagle Tribe, you are noble and incomparable in the Eagle Tribe, but in the eyes of those Great Qin people, you are not even as good as their slaves." It was that oldest elder who spoke again.
"Nope! Councilor Jung and Chuji didn't see us that way!" Tuosu retorted.
"Yes, Lord Sima has been kind to us, and when the battle was over, he summoned us and praised us." Tuosu was not the only one who wanted to go to Nambu as a soldier, other warriors who followed the battle also wanted to go forward, the uniforms and weapons of the valley soldiers were attracting them.
"It's one thing to make peace and praise you, it's another to accept and use you, and no one dares to reuse the Fae warriors." The old elder waved his hand. The Eagle Tribe then only trusted the people of their own tribe.
"Who said that, Wei Qing told me that as long as the physical conditions are qualified, not only the Eagle Tribe warriors can enroll, but also the warriors of other small tribes can also go to participate, and there are several small tribe warriors who have already followed the retreating wooden boats." Tuosu was the one who saw those warriors before he got up his mind.
"Really?" The old elder opened his dry eyes with searching thoughts in his eyes.
When Tuosu and a group of young warriors left, Tuohyong and the elders were silent.
"Grand Elder, what are we attracting?" There was bewilderment in Tuoxiong's voice.
"It's not a jackal, nor will it be a tiger or leopard." Chu Chao Hui's series of strong arrangements before withdrawing his troops made the Eagle Tribe's elders realize something, it was as if they had touched something, but they couldn't feel any malice.
The Grand Elder concluded with the final words, "The Eagle Tribe will always be a friend to the North Shore people as long as we tribesmen are getting along better and better.
