”Reporting...” Master, something terrible has happened. ” Just then, another servant ran in and said angrily: ”Master, all the Pitiful Moslems Tribes at the north side of Tianxi County City have submitted to the Han army, causing them to gather all three ten thousand people horses, and split into three groups as they charged towards us.”
”What?” Dahuru was shocked, her eyes stared straight at the servant: ”Where are they already?”
”Master, they have already reached the mountain range, they are only half a day away from here.” The servant quickly said.
”Damned thing, why did you only report it now?” Dahuru glared at the servant angrily, but he could not bother with the servant anymore, she immediately ordered the butler: ”Immediately send people to inform the tribes, tell them to keep the old people and children, the young and robust men and women immediately retreat back to korean.”
”Yes sir!” The butler replied and turned around to leave. His heart was filled with fear, he wished he could leave this place early and go to korean's territory. At least, the Han army should not be able to chase after the korean. If the Han and korean people fought, they probably wouldn't think of them anymore.
”Wait a minute,” Dahuru beckoned with her hand. When the butler turned around, he said fiercely, ”Inform the tribes to burn the crops. They definitely won't leave any grain for the Han army.”
”Yes sir!” The butler, Goddard, clasped his hands together before turning around and leaving the hall.
Due to the continuous rain, the roads in the mountains became even more muddy. If they were not careful, they would fall, and even their horses' hooves would slip. The mounted soldiers had no choice but to jump off their horses and ride with them, seriously affecting the speed of the troop.
”What kind of weather is this? Are we letting them live?” ”If it's a few more days, I'm afraid that even the stones will get soaked.” Sun Guan slipped and almost fell down. He could not help but scold in anger.
”Haha …” Wu Dun laughed, and shook off the mud on his feet: What are you so anxious about? We don't have to go to war, we just have to scare them, there's no need to be so fast! ”
Indeed, Sun Guan and Wu Dun were not in a hurry to travel, but were walking slowly towards the Dahuru Tribe. They sent out large numbers of exorcism troops to search for their way forward with great fanfare. Not to mention ambushing them, even the Pitiful Moslems scouts who were hiding on the mountain path and spying on them were scared to the point of running away.
Other than defending the city, they gathered their three ten thousand people s and split them into three groups, pouncing majestically towards the Dahuru. Actually, they did not want to eliminate the Pitiful Moslems, but wanted to create a situation where they could pressure him with their presence, scaring him away and forcing him to run to korean's territory.
”Reporting...” Master, all the tribes of Pitiful Moslems are fleeing towards the south. But as they ran, they set fire to the crops. It's just that because of the continuous rain and the wet orange stalks of the crops, they didn't start a fire. ” A scout ran over and reported to Sun Guan and Wu Dun.
”Haha …” The heavens are truly on my side! ” Sun Guan raised his head and looked at the dusky sky, suddenly he liked the rainy weather: ”Those vicious Pitiful Moslems, they actually wanted to burn the crops. Who knew that the sky wouldn't listen to their wishes, the orange pole is too wet, so they can't burn it.”
”Hehe …” Who was it that was cursing the weather just now? Why did you suddenly like the weather again? ” Wu Dun laughed, pretending to be serious as he said, ”Be careful when you speak from now on. If you offend the heavens, be careful when you get struck by thunder.”
”Only an old fellow like Dahuru should be struck by lightning. He actually wanted to burn down the crops, and wasn't willing to leave us a single grain.” Thinking of the Dahuru's viciousness, Sun Guan said furiously, ”If we capture him, we must definitely starve him to death!”
”Reporting...” Master, there are two Pitiful Moslems s who claim to be and Li Da's messengers. Not long after, another scout came over to report.
”Oh …” Ever since he sent the two of them to attack Dalic Tribe, he did not know anything about these two fellows. Sun Guan immediately waved his hand, ”Quickly call them over.”
Not long later, the scout brought two messengers of the Pitiful Moslems. Sun Guan looked and saw that it was actually those two unlucky bastards whose ears had been cut off by the Dahuru. They walked forward, bowed and said: ”Reporting to my lord, Zhang Hu, Li Da, the two masters followed Dalic Tribe, and chased south.”
Sun Guan waved his hands, allowing the two Pitiful Moslems s to leave. He turned his head and said to Wu Dun: ”Zhang Hu, Li Da, these two fellows are bold and greedy, aren't you afraid of being surrounded by the Pitiful Moslems?”
”You can't blame them for this, didn't you tell them to adapt to the situation?” Wu Dun glanced at Sun Guan, and said thoughtfully: ”We should immediately report this to the Lord General, and at the same time adjust our tactics. Otherwise, we really might cause Zhang Hu and Li Da to fall into a passive situation.”
”You're right!” Sun Guan thought for a while, then called over the herald: ”Report to the Lord General immediately, tell them that the Pitiful Moslems has fled to the korean's territory, and request for instructions. He also informed all the cavalrymen to increase their speed and catch up with him. At the same time, inform the Wasteland soldier, and ask them to leave a portion of their troops behind to take over Pitiful Moslems's village, and the others to continue chasing after the Pitiful Moslems.
Zhang Hu and Li Da tightly held onto the remaining Pitiful Moslems s of the Dalic Tribe, and chased for three days in a single breath. Borrowing the advantage of their horses, the Han Army finally surrounded them all in a valley. After a short and intense battle, the Dalic Tribe was completely wiped out.
”Let's go back.”
After cleaning up the battlefield, Zhang Hu waved his hand and ordered the convoy to return to the north, as he prepared to return to cavalry brigade to report to the main generals Sun Guan and Wu Dun. This mission to attack the Dalic Tribe should have been completed perfectly. Even though he had chased them for three days, he had not allowed them to escape.
”Reporting...” Milords, something is not good, there are more than two thousand korean people in front blocking our way, and they are currently fighting with our front lines! Just as Zhang Hu and Li Da were leading the group back to the north, scout suddenly ran over to report.
