Chapter 290: Defeated in 1 attack
This is an inconspicuous depression, but what is commendable is that there is a small puddle of water at the lowest point of the depression!
Around the small puddle, hundreds of tattered tents were set up in a disorderly manner.
The tribal leader is a white-haired old man!
He looked at the tribesmen scrambling to get water, and his heart was filled with worry:
The Wolf King Khan is going to be the king! The bloodthirsty Wolf God is thirsty for blood again! The sky in the Northern Wilderness is going to change again!
What should a small tribe like ours do?
His small tribe was just a subordinate tribe of the Lone Wolf Tribe. Now the Lone Wolf Tribe was divided up, and the subordinate tribes were also annexed! His small tribe was too far away from the Heavenly Wolf King's Court, too close to Southern Chen, and too weak and small, which is why he was able to survive until today.
However, according to legend, the million-strong army of Southern Chen is advancing step by step towards the Tianlang King's Court. And the King's Court is also reorganizing its various departments!
For someone like me who once supported the Lone Wolf Tribe, the best outcome would be that I would be killed and my family would be reduced to ordinary slaves!
Continue to be the tribal leader? No doubt.
But how could I be willing to die! Besides, even if my tribe is small, I am still a noble man! How could my family become slaves of others?
In order to save his life and to maintain his status as a superior person, he had no choice but to take his tribe and seek refuge with someone else!
I heard that the Zhenyuan Yuanyuan Yan family in Jinzhou is recruiting talented people! If I take my people to join them, maybe I can continue to be a leader! Moreover, one of my sons has already established a connection with the Yuanyan family.
This place is only a few hundred miles away from Yuan Yan's private army. As long as we are careful and avoid the slow-moving Chen Dynasty troops, we can be under the command of Yuan Yan within ten days.
At that time, in addition to continuing to be a superior person, you will also be able to enjoy the wealth and glory that would never be possible in such a bitter and cold place in the north.
"Go! Tell everyone! After eating and drinking, hurry back to the tent to rest! Once the sun sets, we will take advantage of the brightest moon to hurry on! Let them be patient! When we meet Lord Zhenyuan's army, we will have endless delicious food and wine to drink!"
The tribal chief saw that the number of people fetching water was decreasing, so he gave orders to one of his confidants.
"Yes! Chief!"
"Also, send dozens of people to guard the area within ten miles. You must defend against the Chen people! Even though the Chen army is moving like a turtle, we still have to guard against them!"
"Yes! Chief!"
"Then hurry up! Ah... I'm so sleepy! I'm going to go back to my tent and take a nap! Nothing is urgent before sunset! No one is allowed to disturb me!"
"Yes!"
Perhaps because he was too old, the old chief fell into a deep sleep soon after returning to his tent.
In his dream, his son became a high-ranking official under Duke Zhenyuan, and he lived in a mansion that was not available in the Northern Wilderness. Countless servants surrounded him, serving him and calling him "Master".
What he eats and wears is even better than when he was in the Northern Wilderness, which makes him smile all the time!
"Oh! Jinzhou is still the best!"
The old chief sighed in his dream!
"Oh no! Oh no! The Chen people are attacking us!"
"Run! There are too many people!"
"Hurry! Run! Don't worry about those things! Escaping is the most important thing!"
Suddenly, the panicked shouts of the tribesmen woke the old chief from his sweet dream.
The old chief rushed out of the tent in a hurry, only to see that the entire tribal camp was in chaos under the setting red sun.
"What's going on? What on earth is going on? People from Chen? Where did the Chen people come from? How did they get to the camp? Where are our sentinels? Why didn't they come to warn us?"
The old chief grabbed a tribesman and asked.
Seeing that it was the old chieftain who grabbed him, the tribesman had to patiently say, "Master Chief! You should run too! There are several thousand Chen people coming this time! We are no match for them at all! As for those patrols, I'm afraid they have been killed by the Chen people long ago! Old Chief, you should run too!"
After the tribesman finished speaking, he struggled to break free from the old leader and fled to the southwest.
"Chen people!? Thousands!? How is this possible! Didn't they say that the Chen people have dispersed their forces? Didn't they say that they were all organized into battalions? How could there be an army of several thousand people?"
The old leader was a little confused!
However, the approaching shouts and screams left him no time to be confused!
Under the red sun, no one knew how many troops from the Chen Dynasty were coming to attack, and the entire camp was in chaos with people crying and shouting!
Soon, the old tribal leader fled to the southwest with the crowd.
He actually didn't want to escape to the southwest, but there were Chen Dynasty's troops in all directions except the southwest.
Moreover, the Chen Dynasty's army was almost entirely composed of cavalry. If you ran slowly, you would definitely not be able to escape.
The old chief finally found a few trusted men and rode on a horse, but he was hit by a heavy arrow before he got out of the depression for only half a mile.
Shoot him off his horse.
Now everyone is in a hurry to escape. The few confidants of the old leader have either been killed or injured, or have fled. Who would care about him?
The old leader fell heavily to the ground. Although he was dizzy, he did not die immediately. Instead, the pain made him more energetic.
The old leader endured the severe pain and watched some of his horsemen pass by him. Soon, a group of staggering tribesmen rushed over.
Before the old leader had time to call for help, a group of Chen cavalrymen surrounded him from both wings.
"Put down your weapons and I will spare your lives. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!"
"Put your hands on your head and lie on the ground! Anyone who dares to stand up will be killed without mercy!"
"Everyone, get down on the ground and don't move! Anyone who doesn't obey will be killed without mercy!"
These Chen people rode their horses and shouted loudly! If the Northern Wilderness barbarians made any unusual moves,
You will be attacked by swords and spears and die!
The old leader curled up, not daring to move! However, he was not willing to just wait for death!
When he saw several people who were obviously dressed as officers approaching on horseback, he shouted with all his might: "General! General! Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! We are here to surrender to Da Chen! We are not Da Chen's enemies! Please understand, General!"
This was Liu Feiyun's first time leading an army in battle! Although the enemy was only a small tribe with less than a thousand fighters and less than a hundred soldiers, Liu Feiyun still acted as cautiously as a tiger attacking a rabbit!
In this battle, he did not ask how many enemies he could annihilate, but only hoped to build up the confidence of victory for the entire battalion through the victory of the first battle!
After fully listening to the suggestions of his subordinates, especially those from the Northern Wilderness, Liu Feiyun decided on a strategy of bluffing as the main method, supplemented by cavalry harassment, not engaging in head-on conflict with the enemy, but only attacking from the wings and the rear!
But! The enemy was too impatient to fight! With just a bluffing attack, the enemy lost their composure and was defeated by our attack!
