Chapter 74 Farewell

"Congratulations to the host: Support the Ordos tribe and protect the main tent from being breached. Mission completed.

Reward: 10 drops of 10,000-year stalactite."

"The Hua family assisted the Ordos tribe in the battle and won, and obtained 135 points of family luck!"

In the second half of the night, Hua Kai finally received a system prompt. He got up and walked outside the tent, and heard the shouting and killing outside the tribe gradually weakened.

Not long after, the Ordos tribal warriors came back with a team of captives. The women and children ran out of the tent happily and shouted excitedly outside the tent.

It was not until dawn that Hua Kai saw his grandfather, fifth uncle, and Yu Jun coming back. Although they looked very sleepy, they were in good spirits.

"Kai'er, the Ordos tribe won, and the 50,000 Wuzhui tribe army was defeated. Only less than 10,000 Wuzhui cavalry escaped. The Ordos tribe is cleaning up the battlefield." Hua Xing entered the tent and said to Hua Kai happily.

"Are you three injured? Rest quickly after fighting for a day. We have fulfilled our promise to Chief Tiefa. We will leave after saying goodbye to Chief Tiefa." Hua Kai stood up and said.

"The three of us are not injured together. Chief Tiefa is busy now and I am afraid he has no time to pay attention to us."

Hua Xing's excitement calmed down when he heard Hua Kai say he was leaving. No matter how much he contributed to the Ordos tribe yesterday, he was still an outsider and they had to hurry back to the team.

As they were talking, they heard a noise outside the tent. Hua Kai walked out of the tent and saw Chief Tiefa coming outside their tent before he took off his armor.

"Haha! Brother Hua, we won. The Wuzhui tribe was defeated. We captured more than 20,000 slaves. It was just that Chief Wuzhui escaped. I plan to pursue the victory and break through the main tent of the Wuzhui tribe today. The main force of their tribe is basically finished. I want to see what he can use to resist our army." Chief Tiefa laughed when he saw Hua Kai.

"Then congratulations to Chief Tiefa. It's just a matter of time before the Ordos tribe becomes a large tribe on the grassland." Hua Kai replied with a smile.

"Brother Hua, aren't you going with us? When you go to the Wuzhui tribe, all the spoils will belong to you. Of course, the Hua family caravan has also made great contributions in this battle. When all the spoils are collected, you will not lose a penny of the spoils." Chief Tiefa was soaked in blood from head to toe, which shows how many people he killed.

"Thank you, Chief Tiefa, for your kindness, but the day for our caravan to go home has come. I'm afraid we can't go to the Wuzhui tribe!" Hua Kai returned.

"No... That's a pity! I originally wanted to break through the Wuzhui tribe with the Hua family... Since you insist, brother Hua, I won't make it difficult for you.

If the Ordos tribe defeats the Wuzhui tribe, many small and medium-sized tribes around will definitely surrender to us. If you want to buy more herbs, I will ask someone to collect them specifically. The Hua family will always be the best friend of the Ordos tribe." Chief Tiefa said sincerely.

"The Ordos tribe is also the best friend of the Hua family. Chief Tiefa can list the goods that the Ordos tribe needs, and we will send them next year... In addition to various spiritual medicines and herbs, we also need high-level animal bones, furs, and horses." Hua Kai said with a smile.

"Haha, of course... I wonder if Brother Hua can spare a word..." Chief Tiefa looked at Hua Kai and suddenly said.

Hua Kai signaled everyone in the tent to go out and avoid it. He saw that Chief Tiefa's brows gradually frowned.

"Brother Hua, I wanted to send the Hua family caravan a hundred miles, but the matter of the Wuzhui tribe cannot be delayed. Brother Hua knows that we are a subordinate medium-sized tribe in the Huhan tribe, but why do we have to face the pressure of the Wuzhui tribe alone?" Chief Tiefa said.

"This is indeed a bit strange. Why is the Wuzhui tribe not afraid of the support of the Huhan tribe?" Hua Kai asked.

"Hehe! The ten major tribes of the Xiongnu have been around for hundreds of years, and during this period, many medium-sized tribes have grown to a population of nearly 100,000. However, every time these medium-sized tribes have the possibility of being promoted to large tribes, they will be invaded by large tribes.

The ten major tribes of the Xiongnu either have other forces behind them to help them, or they have their own specialties. I have sent people to the Huhan tribe for help several times a year for so many years, but the Huhan tribe has always ignored them.

If the Ordos tribe took action later, perhaps the biggest obstacle to the Ordos tribe's annexation of the Wuzhui tribe would be the Huhan tribe."

Hua Kai also felt that the Xiongnu tribe was not as calm as it seemed on the surface when he heard this. If the ten major tribes wanted to maintain their rule, the powerful medium-sized tribes would inevitably be suppressed. It seems that it is not so easy for the Ordos tribe to become a large tribe.

Hua Kai realized the deep meaning of what Chief Tiefa said. The Ordos tribe needed the Hua family caravan and an ally like the Hua family. He would never have any ill will towards the Hua family.

"I understand, but the Guangxian merchant group has agreed to gather at the Huhan tribe at the end of June. If we are late, the caravan may not be able to return this year." Hua Kai was also jealous of the accumulation of a large tribe, but they could not waste too much time here.

"In this case, I will not keep you. I will have someone prepare the dried spirit cattle in the afternoon, and you can send someone to the main account to get it. Just ask if there is anything that the Ordos tribe can help you with. I will have someone calculate the spoils of the Hua family this time before dark, and then send them all over. I still have to lead troops to the Wuzhui tribe, so I won't send more. Brother Hua...see you next year!"

After saying this, Chief Tiefa left. This is a rare opportunity. If the Wuzhui tribe is conquered in one fell swoop without the Huhan tribe noticing, then the Wuzhui horse, one of the eight famous horses, will become the exclusive property of the Ordos tribe. How the other nine tribes on the grassland will deal with the rise of the Ordos tribe can only wait until later.

Grandfather, Uncle Five, and Yu Jun have returned to their tents to rest. The Ordos tribe organized an army of 40,000 and began to march towards the Wuzhui tribe. In addition to more than 10,000 tribal cavalry, the other 30,000 slaves were also the most elite slaves selected by the Ordos tribe. War is normal for all tribes on the grassland.

In the afternoon, a cavalry team from the Ordos tribe sent a dried spirit cow. Hua Kai bought several carriages from the Ordos tribe and divided the dried spirit cow into two and loaded them on two carriages.

When it was dark, another cavalry team sent the Hua family's spoils of war list. Because the captives were all newly captured, the Ordos tribe selected a team of 100 slaves from their elite slave camp, and there were also 80 horses. These captured were obviously deliberately given by the chief Tiefa.

On June 27, there were still four days before the Guangxian merchant group left the Huhan tribe.

The Hua family cavalry walked on the vast grassland, followed by a hundred Ordos tribal cavalry.

After a day of rest in the Ordos tribe, the Hua family caravan left the Ordos tribe. They walked slowly on the grassland, and hundreds of new Ordos slaves followed the caravan slowly.

Most of these slaves were loyal around 0 o'clock. Hua Kai couldn't let them ride horses. Besides, there were several carriages brought out from the Ordos tribe, and two of them were pulling more than 2,000 kilograms of wind-dried spirit cattle, so they couldn't walk too fast.

This wind-dried spirit cattle doesn't look very big, but the weight is beyond your imagination.

Think about it, the wild buffalo king weighing tens of thousands of kilograms has been wind-dried for several years or even decades, and its volume has shrunk several times. How can it not be heavy?

As they walked, Hua Kai saw that the slaves behind him couldn't walk anymore. The grassland was unbearably hot at this time, so Hua Kai had to order the tents to be set up and stop to rest.

After walking more than 40 miles in one morning, there was still about 450 miles from the Huhan tribe. It was too difficult to rush back in four days.

"Grandpa, this won't work. I plan to catch up with our caravan on horseback this afternoon, put some of the things on the carriage into the space, and bring a few of our carriages over." Hua Kai said to his grandfather beside him.

"I think this is necessary. Let your fifth uncle and Yu Jun follow you. You can probably catch up with the caravan by dark on your BMWs." Hua Xing agreed.

In the afternoon, without waiting for the main force to set off, Hua Kai set off with his fifth uncle and Yu Jun.

Hua Kai had the sense of Xiao Qiang and could know the approximate location of the caravan. He changed Xiao Qiang's perspective and found that it was actually walking alone on the grassland, and it seemed to be injured.

Xiao Qiang also sensed the master's observation of him. It felt the breath of a wolf pack not far away. It resisted the urge to fight in its heart and turned to walk towards the caravan.

At this time, the Hua family caravan had passed the Urad tribe, and the Jia family had withdrawn from the Urad tribe. Hua Fu rode back and looked behind him, but still could not see the figures of Hua Kai, Hua Xing and others chasing after him.

"Butler, don't worry too much. The Hua family has sent out three Qi training masters, who will definitely be able to break out of danger. Xiaoqiang has a connection with the head of the family, and there has been nothing wrong with Xiaoqiang these days. It is estimated that the head of the family has been delayed by something!" Wei Baotou came to the side of Butler Huafu to comfort him.

Speaking of Xiaoqiang, Butler Huafu was a little overwhelmed.

Before Hua Kai left, he asked Hua Xuan to take good care of Xiaoqiang, but Xiaoqiang disappeared quietly after recovering from his injuries. He was originally worried about how to explain to Hua Kai, but it returned to the caravan not long after. No matter how fast or slow the caravan went, he could always find it back in the carriage where he lived before dark every day.

Butler Huafu had no way to deal with this, but told Hua Xuan to notify him every time Xiaoqiang came back.

As he was talking, Butler Huafu saw a figure in the distance slowly running towards the caravan, and when he looked closely, he knew who it was if it wasn't Xiaoqiang!

"Why did Xiaoqiang come back so early today? It seems that his injury today is not very serious!" Wei Baotou said when he saw Xiaoqiang returning to the team.

Every time Xiaoqiang came back, he always had wounds of varying sizes on his body, but strangely, the next day, the wounds on his body would miraculously heal. This might be the unique talent of the Golden Mastiff!

Xiaoqiang caught up with the caravan, jumped on his carriage obediently, and lay quietly in the small nest made by Hua Kai for him. This reminded everyone of Hua Kai's days in the caravan. Xiaoqiang always lay there quietly like this. Butler Hua Fu didn't think too much about it. He was wondering whether to stop and wait for Hua Kai and the others. The caravan was about 200 miles away from the Huhan tribe. As long as he was willing, he could get there in more than a day.
