"The great leader of Tanai, the warriors of the tribe are about to take down Heishui City. Next, as long as they capture Qishan County, the great capital of Shang and Zhou dynasties is close to us. However, there are more than one million defenders in Qishan County. The warriors of my tribe are not good at siege wars. What should we do?" asked the leader of a smaller tribe.

The camp was full of leaders of various tribes, as well as some people similar to military advisors.

The Tata tribe is one of the largest tribes in the grassland, and they are all subordinates to his tribe. Tanai has a high military power and has methods, but when it comes to marching and fighting, especially siege wars, he really doesn't understand it very much.

Tanai said to the tribal military advisor on the side: "Take wise man, how do you think we should capture this Qishan County city? The millions of people in the Central Plains are not afraid at all. It is just that this tall city wall blocked the iron hoofs of the warriors of my tribe."

"The warriors of my tribe are not good at siegeing the city, and the number of opponents is large. Relying on the city wall will cause a lot of casualties to the warriors of my tribe. However, outside the city, no one on the plain is the opponent of my tribe. We just need to waste it, and when they run out of food and grass, they will naturally take the initiative to go out of the city and fight us to death."

Taco analyzed that this is the weakness of their grassland tribe. They do not have advanced technology. Although they have been learning secretly from the Central Plains over the years, they have not cultivated their own craftsmen. It is really difficult for them to siege the city.

Tanai didn't understand very much, but he was willing to listen and nodded, "As far as Tak's wise man said, we are not in a hurry."

Everyone understood what he meant and expressed it clearly. Then Tanai asked again: "Where are the other tribes fighting now?"

The grassland almost emerged this time, but most of the tribes depended on a large tribe to fight each other.

The leader of the following tribe immediately said what he knew: "The big leader, the Jiuhu tribe and the Wild Wolf tribe are similar to us. They were also blocked by the Central Plains army. After several attacks, not many of them ended in failure and lost a lot of warriors."

"Haha, idiot, do you really think the people in the Central Plains are so easy to fight? Otherwise, we would not have been living in the grassland for thousands of years. The Central Plains would have been unified by my tribe." Tanai scoffed at their recklessness. In fact, he did not realize that he was the same as theirs. If he hadn't been a Taco wise man, he might have rushed forward now.

In fact, Tanai admires the culture of the Central Plains very much. Although their bodies are even as weak as lambs, there are many smart people, and some are even more cunning than foxes.

However, no matter how cunning prey is, it will be futile in front of the hunter and will sooner or later die under the hunter's bow and arrow.

Compared to the people on the grassland who are unscrupulous, the atmosphere of the coalition forces in the Central Plains is much more depressed. They really dare not send troops to fight against the grassland cavalry. More than one million soldiers and horses are huddled in the city, so how can it not make people feel depressed?

The commander of the coalition forces here was Ji Zhan, the general of the Shang and Zhou dynasties. His previous lessons allowed him to deeply understand the gap in combat power between the two sides. Moreover, although the coalition forces were dominated by him, no one was willing to charge forward. They all tried every means to reduce their own losses and did not do their best.

"Oh." He didn't have any time to say anything, so he had to say: "You send people to guard every corner of the city wall, and you must not give the enemy a chance to attack. Now you can only hold on first and wait for a suitable opportunity, hoping to defeat the other party in one fell swoop."

This is just hope, and I don’t know if such hope will appear. But he can’t say it

If you are discouraged, the morale of the army cannot be dispersed at this moment. If it disperses, it will be even more impossible to defend Qishan County.

The north was not smooth everywhere, but the Western Regions were in the direction. Because Chen Bingshu was the leader and most of the troops came from Xihao Kingdom, they fought many victories, which defeated the aura of these foreign races.

However, the coalition forces in the Western Regions were not vegetarians. They suffered several setbacks, but their troops did not suffer too much loss. The two sides were still in a confrontation. Unless the equipment was crushed, they really needed a suitable time to arrange troops and then fight wits and courage.

But none of them noticed that a group of people had quietly landed from the waters to the extreme east of the grassland, where there was an affiliated country that was once the Central Plains: the Dongyi Kingdom. However, when the Central Plains split into internal struggles in multiple countries, it quietly went out independently because it was separated from the grassland by a large mountain range and had never been threatened by the grassland. The Central Plains have almost forgotten it now, and its national strength is definitely not inferior to any country in the Central Plains.

However, such a country has become a hell on earth in less than a short time. Except for some surviving and fleeing people, the others are transformed into dead souls under guns and cannons.

"Hurry, don't stop artillery fire, just level the last city. We will only give us half a month. Next, we must pass through the Baiyun Mountains as soon as possible and attack the grassland."

The artillery fire continued to roar, and now every battle was made with cannons. The enemy they encountered could not stop their progress at all. The body was fragile and fell in pieces with the sound of gunfire.

"Captain, all the cities in Dongyi Kingdom have been leveled, except for a small number of people who have escaped, all the others have been killed."

The regiment commander heard the words without any nonsense and said directly: "Reorganize the army immediately and march towards the Baiyun Mountains urgently. There will be subsequent troops here to clean up."

"Yes, the leader."

The itinerary was extremely tight, and they left without a moment's stop. The subsequent one was another team sent by the Empire, which was specially used to clean the battlefield and prevent excessive corpses from causing epidemics. The number of people was not large, only a thousand people, but they were also equipped with excellent weapons.

The daily war reports will be constantly transmitted back. In addition to the analysis of the situation as the general staff, they must also be presented to Liu Feiyun for a look. After all, this matter was proposed by Liu Feiyun, His Majesty of the Empire.

"Liu Yi, the empire does not need to be so urgent. Take the grassland matters slowly." Although Liu Feiyun proposed a grassland strategy, such a high-intensity battle would hurt the soldiers' bodies.

Liu Yi heard his implicit meaning and said: "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry. This is just their normal training intensity. The current deployment is all obtained through rigorous analysis. Moreover, people from various tribes in the grassland are involved in the Central Plains. They cannot let them conquer the Central Plains first, otherwise they will lose a lot of strategic significance."

"No matter what, people-oriented." Liu Feiyun understood the empire's policies. Since Liu Yi said so, there should be no problem.

The attack on the grassland was carried out quietly, but there was not no movement. It was just a regiment of troops, strong firepower, and the distribution of tribes that had been discovered long ago. Most of the tribes left behind were old, weak, sick and disabled, and there was no possibility of anyone escaping.

Of course, there are always accidents in everything. For example, some people just happened to go out hunting, and some people were ready to have some "the sky is vast and the wilderness is vast" mood, and they were extremely lucky to escape.

However, it is hard to say whether they can pass on the tribe's experience. Liao on the grassland

It’s not difficult or easy to survive alone.

"Don't let anyone go, move quickly." The regiment commander personally directed the battle. Whenever they came to a tribe, the first thing they had to do was to surround them, then take several rounds of artillery fire, and then use muskets to harvest them, and there was no way to escape.

"The gods of heaven, it is the gods of heaven who come to punish us." These barbarians on the grassland also have their own beliefs. They think so about this powerful weapon, like thunder.

Most people in this era say about unknown and irresistible things.

"It was the leader who angered them. This is the god of the Central Plains! Why didn't our god appear!"

The group leader was too lazy to be slow to say about the shouts of these ignorant people, and directly drowned them all in the sound of gunfire. Then he drew a fork on the map and ordered: "Check the equipment, rest on the spot for ten minutes, and then the next tribe."

Finally, after a lot of hardships, the unyielding grassland warriors spread the bad news about the grassland to the ears of the leaders who were attacking the Central Plains.

Before the news came, they were complacent. They were about to harvest the delicious food in front of them with their blades. However, from the bolt of the blue, they turned out to be someone else's prey.

The mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole behind him. After hearing this, the leaders of all tribes changed their faces and said calmly: "What's the situation of my tribe now?"

However, as soon as he asked, the man had already fainted and traveled through mountains and rivers, and his body could not bear it.

Tanai waved his hand and asked someone to send him for treatment, while the others looked at him with concern. How could he not know about such a situation? These people had a desire to retreat in their hearts.

But there is a big picture in front of you!

However, there must be no accidents in their own ancestral land, not to mention that although they have been pressing against each other, who knows whether the enemies raging in the grasslands in the rear will attack them.

After discussion, everyone decided to retreat temporarily, and the grassland should not be missed.

"Retreat, retreat, the enemy retreat!" As the defenders on the city tower were still unclear, the enemy outside the city ran away overnight.

At this time, the spies were naturally not idle, and immediately found out the enemy's whereabouts. They really retreated. However, it is unknown what the reason is. Everyone speculated that something might be wrong in the rear, and the specific details still need to be inquired later.

The news of the retreat of the grassland tribe was immediately conveyed to the soldiers of the grassland tribe. They sent a small number of them to continue cleaning, and most of the troops were deployed on the way back.

"fire!"

Even if there are millions of soldiers, they are not afraid at all. When they pull out the formation, hundreds of cannons will instantly break up the opponent's formation, and the horse will be frightened. There is also a minefield arranged in advance, so the opponent cannot surpass it at all.

"I beat me hard, and I won't say I'll eat it all, at least half of the men will let them bury their bones here."

The leader actually wanted to destroy them even more, but it was obviously impossible. When they felt that it was impossible, they would inevitably choose to run away. There were only about 50,000 people who could not join the siege and could only watch them run away.

However, if the monks run away, they cannot escape the temple. The grassland will soon belong to the empire territory, and the people on the grassland will be slowly surrounded and suppressed unless they escape to the Central Plains.

But does Central Plains have their place to stay?
