I’m The King Chapter 81: :Hutu in trouble
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it has entered March. The sun finally has some energy and shows some enthusiasm. Under the sunshine, the snow that has covered the whole winter turns into The gurgling water began to moisten everything on the earth. Although the snow hadn't completely melted, some tender green shoots had emerged from below, swaying in the wind, showing the spring to everyone.
Latrobe took his own horse and wandered around the camp. In an hour or two, he had almost finished turning all the tents and seeing his only remaining people, and just half a year ago, Even in a day's work, he couldn't complete his old battalion. With more than 100,000 people, the Hutu tribe, which can gather 2,000 elite cavalry between three horns, has become a bereaved dog. There are less than 2,000 tents left, and with all our efforts, we can only form a cavalry of more than 400 people.
An infighting between Donghu tribes competing for grassland and territory, the Hutu tribe suffered a disastrous defeat, most of the people have become slaves of others, and most of the warriors spilled their blood on the land they lost On the fertile land. They could only flee all the way to the eyes of the Dayan people. If it hadn’t been for the words of Donghu King in the end, their enemies would drive them to death. Even if they got temporary safety now , but La Trobe did not dare to be careless in the slightest. His opponent would not let him go so easily. King Donghu's words worked on the surface, but in the dark, no one could guarantee that his opponent would not let him go. He came here on a dark and stormy night, killed himself and his own people, and then refused to admit it. Is it possible that King Donghu would offend another powerful tribe for the sake of a tribe that no longer exists? Is it? The head is just a few words of scolding.
In the final analysis, it is still about strength. If I want Hutu to survive, I can only increase my strength as soon as possible and lick the **** wound as soon as possible.
Although the looting of Dayan last winter took certain risks, the harvest was huge, not only a large amount of food, countless gold and silver, but more importantly, a large number of people. The Dayan people launched a plunder, and the targets of the plunder were only strong men, women and children, but last time, as long as they were human beings, the Hutu people would come and go. Now the Hutu people need a large number of slaves so that they can quickly Gather wealth and population. If the enemy attacks, at least these slaves can resist some soldiers for the tribe.
Strong male slaves can use simple weapons to resist when the enemy strikes, female slaves can bring more population to the tribe, and those children can become adult slaves in the near future.
In La Trobe's heart, the enemy is the enemy from within Donghu. As for the Dayan people, they are not within his consideration. Just relying on those people, even if his vitality is seriously injured right now, they cannot be his own. The opponent, unless it is Zhang Shouyue from Liaoxi County who personally commits the crime, but if that happens, King Donghu will never sit idly by. It will be a big battle between the Donghu people and the Dayan people, and Zhang Shouyue does not have the courage to do so.
The situation is getting better day by day. Just after walking around the camp, the cattle, sheep and horses gave birth to many cubs. Some thriving atmosphere, seeing that the spring grass has drilled out of the land, it will not be long before this place will become a lush grassland, where the Hutu tribe will spread their wings and soar in the sky again.
Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. La Trobe took a long breath, stretched out his hand to gather the white hair that was blown by the wind behind his head, and tied the silk tie that tied the hair even tighter. , In half a year, it was still black hair, but now, it is like snow in winter.
Hearing the sound of horseshoes in a hurry, La Trobe raised his head, and a blue war horse flew towards him from outside the barracks gate, galloping in front of him. He got off his horse neatly, "Patriarch!" The young knight ran over excitedly.
"What's the matter? Be in a hurry, Nafu, you are now a centurion!" La Trobe frowned, dissatisfied, Nafu is the newly mentioned centurion after the Great War In order to cover the retreat of the tribe, the experienced veterans have almost lost all of them.
"Patriarch, I was patrolling outside today and found a large convoy with more than a hundred people accompanying it. I followed and observed for a while. These guards are not elite. If they do it, they can eat it in one bite. " Nafu was very excited, and he also knew that now is the time when the tribe is eager to expand its strength.
Latrobe raised his eyebrows. He had just done a big job last winter. At this time, how dare the caravan dare to set foot on this land again?
"Have you seen clearly what their convoy is transporting?" La Trobe tapped his palm lightly with his horsewhip, and asked. If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, either it is nothing to fear, or it is a trap. No Who would be a fool to die.
"Patriarch, I have found out everything." Nafu said: "Half of it is salt and tea, and the other half is iron, rough iron, patriarch, these are all things we need urgently, and there are so few escorts , can be easily taken down, with these irons, we can definitely forge more scimitars, more arrows, and then grab more things, patriarch, I have inquired about it for a while, and it is near us , and there are quite a few Huns, as long as we have enough weapons, we can swallow them and strengthen our tribe.”
Latobe's expression turned cold, and the horsewhip tapped Nafu's shoulder lightly, "Nafu, it's very good that you can think so much about the tribe, work hard, you will have a bright future, This matter, let it be like this." Turning around and leading the horse, he wanted to leave.
"Patriarch, patriarch!" Nafu saw that La Trobe meant to give up, and couldn't help being anxious, "I only need a hundred riders, and I can take this team without losing a single person."
Latobe turned around with a smile, "Nafu, there are many things you don't know. Can the person who transported so much iron, salt, and tea out of the border of Dayan to come here be a simple person? We can't **** things, if we do, the Hutu Department will really be on the verge of death, so just pretend you didn't see it!"
"Why?" Nafu asked strangely.
"Because this batch of goods was sold to the Eastern Hu King." La Trobe decided to call the young man, "Nafu, we can escape this time and save this little blood, not because of our Hutu Department Good luck, but because King Donghu wants to keep an enemy like us as a restraint for our opponents, but if we take something that shouldn't be taken, in a blink of an eye, the Hutu tribe will be in this land Those who disappear above, no one will stay, do you understand?"
Nafu nodded, "Patriarch, I now understand that these people are dealing with our king, they are very powerful people, we can't afford to mess with them."
"Yes, we can't afford it!" La Trobe sighed, got on his horse, and ran towards his big tent. In the battle last year, he even lost his king's tent.
A plucked phoenix is not as good as a chicken, and a tiger descending the mountain is bullied by a dog. In the past, I was able to speak in front of the Donghu king, but now, I am afraid that I am not even qualified to enter the Donghu king's camp. up.
Latrobe, who was sighing all the way back to his big tent, never imagined that in the evening of this day, the convoy that he dared not move actually sent someone to find his big camp, staring at it. The rich middle-aged man in front of him, La Trobe frowned. For a while, he really couldn't think of why this man named Huo Zhu would give him so many gifts for no reason.
"Mr. Huo, we have never had friendship. Courtesy is a courtesy to others, and we must ask for something. We Donghu people don't like to go around in circles and get straight to the point. What do you want to do? If you can do it, I will accept these gifts. If If you can't do it, then I'm sorry." Latrobe said slowly.
Huo Zhu looked at the old Hu people who had fallen into Pingyang in front of him, and he was a little surprised. He had already found out the details of the Hutu tribe from Linghudan in Liaoxi County. The things given to him can be said to be what they urgently need, and the good things delivered to the door, this person can still bear his temper, which should not be underestimated.
After taking a sip of the milk tea that he was not used to, Huo Zhu smiled, "The patriarch Latobe said well, courtesy is polite to others, and you must ask for something. Presumably the patriarch knows who I am doing business with. Can you believe it if you think about it?"
"Of course, you are our Donghu King's guests, and when you come to my place, you are also guests."
"Well said!" Huo Zhu smiled and said, "I'm here to ask Patriarch La Trobe to kill a few people and destroy a city!"
La Trobe's eyelids twitched, "Kill a few people and break a city?"
"That's right, what I brought today is only a part of the deposit. If it matters, the proceeds from breaking the city will belong to you, the patriarch, and those few heads will bring you rewards several times the present gift." Huo Cast a leisurely tunnel.
"Destroy that city? Want the heads of those people?" Latube's heart was pounding.
"Break Fufeng City and get the heads of Cao Gaoyuan, the guard of Juliguan Town, Wu Kai, the magistrate of Fufeng County, and Wei Luhong of Fufeng County." Huo Zhu said relaxedly.
"You want me to break through Juliguan?" Latoubet said in surprise, "And Fufeng City?" It must be clear, let alone Fufeng City, even Juliguan, I can't beat it. The Gaoyuan you mentioned is guarding Juliguan now. I still have a lot of information about Juliguan Yes, this Gao Yuan is not an ordinary person, Juliguan has changed a lot now, with this little force in my hand, even if I take down Juliguan, the losses will be heavy, and the gains outweigh the losses."
"Why does the patriarch need to attack Juliguan? As long as he takes down Fufeng City, with his lofty temperament, he will definitely lead his army back to help. After they leave the pass, is it possible that you are still afraid of them?"
"I can't even take down Curieguan, how can I take down the stronger Fufeng City?" La Trobe shook his head again and again.
"Because I'm here, you will naturally take down Fuwang City without any effort!" Huo Zhu smiled.
"Who the **** are you?"
"My name is Huo Zhu, and I am the postmaster of Fufeng City right now!"
Latobejo was shocked, "Since you are the governor of Fufeng City, why did you encourage me to take Fufeng City?"
"There is nothing to hide, because the few people I mentioned offended a nobleman of our Dayan, who wanted their lives. As for other details, the patriarch doesn't need to know, right? "Huo Zhu looked at Latobe, and raised the milk tea in his hand: "Patriarch, this is a lucrative business. After passing this village, there is no such shop. When I go to King Donghu, I must be able to invite others. tribe, then there is no such thing as a patriarch!"
