Hua Zichen charged the front team of Donghu twice. They tried not to go to places with many cattle and sheep, and only chased those royal nobles who were wearing gorgeous clothes and protected by soldiers, but it was useless. They broke up the other party's cattle and sheep. As long as the other party was not injured and could move, they would try to find their own cattle and sheep after the Qinglong Army retreated, and continue to march north. The Qinglong Army had no way to deal with them.
"Fifth Master, what can we do? No matter how many people we kill, it's useless. We can't hurt the other party's bones. We are too few. Otherwise, kill all their cattle and sheep and see where they hide." Tang Lei looked at Hua Zichen and said.
"Stop first! It's not good for us to kill like this. No matter how many [An Shen Hua] we have, it can't withstand this use. I'll ask Kai'er tonight!" Hua Zichen had no way to deal with this.
At night, the Donghu Royal Court's migrating army was the same as usual, doing what they had to do. They even arranged slaves to drive cattle and sheep to graze in the distant grasslands, as if they were despising the Qinglong Army.
The Qinglong Army randomly captured some cattle and sheep around, then made a fire and had dinner. Everything on the grassland began to become quiet. The cattle and sheep that were frightened and fled during the day slowly returned to the migrating army of the Donghu King's Court. Hua Zichen entered the [Family Secret Space].
Hua Kai had just returned from the four major colleges in Gaoliu City. He had arranged to hold two live writing sessions of "Journey to the West" at Gaoliu College and Gaoliu Ideological Education College in recent days. On the one hand, this was to quickly improve the family's cultural value, and on the other hand, it was to let all students see the means above the foundation-building realm, which was conducive to the stability of the Hua family's position in Gaoliu County.
Hearing his fifth uncle talking about the migration of the Donghu King's Court, Hua Kai said: "The Donghu King fell, and the Donghu King's Court must have felt it. They can no longer maintain their rule in the Donghu Kingdom. Leaving is a smart choice.
Giving up defense and letting you attack is also their last resort, but this problem is easy to solve."
"How to solve it?" Hua Zichen asked in surprise.
"If they can do this, we can use their methods to deal with them. We have already controlled the Buri tribe, and 30,000 cavalrymen are still there.
The convoy sent by Gaoliu City will be almost here tomorrow, with about 3,000 carriages and 10,000 ordinary people. It will take us two days at most to catch up with the migration team of the Donghu King Court with the slaves of the Buri tribe. At that time, let the militia ride horses to grab the cattle and sheep of the other side, and take all the slaves to the Buri slave army. Let the Buri slaves take care of the cattle, sheep and slaves, the militia take care of the slaves, and the slaves take care of the new slaves and cattle and sheep. I will send a hundred teachers and students from the School of Ideological Education.
You Qinglong Corps will follow behind the other side and eat away at the other side bit by bit. If the other side has a large army to resist, you will take action again. I believe that the Donghu King Court has no strength to compete with the Qinglong Corps." Hua Kai said.
Hua Zichen imagined Hua Kai's method, but he didn't think it was so simple. The Hua family has 3,000 carriages, and they can transfer some cattle, sheep, and slaves back to the Buri tribe, and then use some carriages to continuously send slaves and cattle and sheep back to the Leopard Jade Pass. I don't believe that the blood of the Donghu Royal Court can't be drained.
Then the Qinglong Corps had an idea, and they no longer rushed blindly. They returned to the rear of the Donghu Royal Court's migrating army, drove out some slaves and civilians together with cattle and sheep, and separated them from the Donghu Royal Court's migrating army. Then they didn't let the other party go back, and whoever resisted was killed directly. The Donghu Royal Court's migrating army in front ignored them completely.
In three days, the Qinglong Corps separated nearly 100,000 cattle, sheep, and horses, and more than 2,000 slaves and herdsmen. They didn't kill the other party, but controlled them. When the Donghu Royal Court saw what the Qinglong Corps did, they thought they were taking advantage, and they were very happy that the Qinglong Corps did so.
In the afternoon, more than 2,000 Suzaku Corps cavalrymen and 20,000 ordinary cavalry slowly drove from the southern horizon, followed by countless carriages. Everyone in the Qinglong Corps couldn't help laughing when they saw this.
Twenty thousand cavalrymen quickly controlled all the cattle, sheep, slaves and herdsmen separated from the Qinglong Legion, and captured all the slaves and herdsmen. More than ten slaves got off each carriage in the back, and those slaves began to control all the cattle, sheep and horses.
The Donghu Royal Court was also surprised to see the Qinglong Legion operate in this way. More than a thousand carriages pulled more than ten thousand slaves. These slaves had been educated by the Hua family and had some spirituality. At least they knew that the Hua family could feed them, and they were willing to listen to the Hua family.
At night, a strange scene appeared on the grassland. The Donghu Royal Court's migration army was in the front, and the Hua family's slave army was in the back. The front lineup was as huge as a giant, and the Hua family team was like a child compared to the other side.
On the second day, more than a thousand carriages took all the slaves and herdsmen of the Donghu Royal Court captured yesterday onto the carriages, and then filled other carriages with sheep. They left again early in the morning under the escort of the two thousand troops of the Suzaku Legion.
The Qinglong Corps started working again. They caught up with the tail of the Donghu Royal Court's migrating army, separated a part of the enemy, and then 10,000 militiamen rode horses to drive all the cattle, sheep, slaves, and herdsmen away from the Donghu Royal Court's army. They separated them 10 miles away, killed those who resisted, separated the cattle and sheep from the people, and escorted them to the slaves to take care of them.
The Hua family slave team was like sucking blood from the Donghu Royal Court's migrating army, sucking the enemy smaller and smaller little by little, and getting bigger and bigger. This lasted for three days.
On the afternoon of the third day, the Suzaku Corps came again with a thousand horse teams. They brought more than 10,000 slaves from the Buri tribe, so that the Hua family slave team could manage these cattle and sheep more easily.
On the fourth day, the horse team took away more than 3,000 Donghu Royal Court slaves and herdsmen and more than 5,000 sheep. The Donghu Royal Court's migrating army finally realized that this would not work.
Every two days, the team would appear once, bringing more than 10,000 people each time, and taking away thousands of them. The number of their livestock is decreasing by 50,000 every day. If this continues, their cattle, sheep and people will be plundered in less than a month.
On the fifth day, Hua Zichen saw that the migration team of the Donghu Royal Court began to move. They gathered some people and selected horses, as if they were going to form a cavalry to fight the Hua family. However, the Qinglong Corps was not worried about this at all. The total population of the Donghu Royal Court was only more than 100,000. After the vitality was damaged at Baoyu Pass, the last 30,000 cavalry were also defeated by them, and the other side could not organize much combat power.
The Qinglong Corps felt that it was easier to plunder the other side's livestock and slaves than before. Hua Zichen looked at the rear and saw that more than 300,000 cattle, sheep and horses had been robbed, and he waited for the carriage team to send them to the Buri tribe tomorrow.
Originally thought that the other side would wait until tomorrow to attack, when Hua Zichen went to plunder their cattle, sheep and slaves again in the afternoon, the scout reported that two cavalry armies ran out from the central area of the Donghu Royal Court, and rushed towards the Hua family slaves from both sides of the migration army. Each cavalry team had about 30,000 horses.
"Can the Donghu King's Court organize 60,000 troops? Could it be that there are other tribes supporting them?" Tang Lei was surprised when he heard the spy tell Hua Kai.
"No, the tribes have already let the Donghu King withdraw all their elites. It is difficult for them to send troops before the elites return to the tribe. I think they must have organized all the slaves, and maybe let women fight on horseback." A captain of the Xiantian Realm said.
"The other side is dividing its troops into two groups to destroy our slave team. They dare not let us plunder like this. No matter where the other side's troops come from, we can't be too careless. The militia doesn't have much combat power and doesn't have the strength to fight a big war. We can only rely on ourselves."
Hua Zichen began to divide his troops, the first, third, and fifth battalions on one side, the second, fourth, and special squadrons on the other side. He led one team himself, and let Tang Lei and Xue Pan lead another team. They gave up the entanglement with the rear team of the migrating army and ran to the two sides of the migrating army.
When the Qinglong Legion saw the other side's cavalry regiment, they almost laughed out loud. Most of the cavalrymen on the other side did not wear leather armor, and some did not even have complete clothes. They were pale and thin, riding small and weak horses, and most of them only had a wooden stick in their hands. The other side really used slaves as cavalry!
The Donghu royal court was still on guard against slaves at this time, and only dared to equip them with weak and weak horses, but what kind of combat power did their cavalry have.
Hua Zichen led more than 2,000 people from the Qinglong Legion into the enemy cavalry formation. Before the charge was over, the slaves in the rear had already begun to flee. When they rushed through the 30,000 cavalry formation, seeing that the other side had completely lost the will to resist, they dispersed and drove them all back to the migrating army. This time, the counterattack of the Donghu royal court became a joke.
In the evening, a hundred teachers and students from the Institute of Ideological Education from Gaoliu City arrived. They were all specialized in slave education in Gaoliu City. Some of them were originally slaves. Their purpose was to awaken the slaves and give them the idea of loyalty to the Hua family.
Hua Zichen warmly entertained the group of teachers and students. These 100 people were more useful than 10,000 militiamen. They no longer had to worry about the defection of slaves.
With the failure of the counterattack by the Donghu Royal Court, they had completely given up the idea of counterattack. Every day, everyone tried to move forward as much as possible. If they walked backward, they would be slowly eaten up by the Hua family. When the third batch of slaves from the Buri tribe arrived, this time they rushed more than 2,000 carriages and nearly 30,000 slaves, which rapidly expanded the Hua family's slave group.
Hua Zichen began to let 5,000 militiamen take 10,000 slaves to send 60,000 cattle and more than 20,000 horses back. The Suzaku Legion cavalry escorted them on the way. When the Azure Dragon Reserve Corps came back, they directly changed the Azure Dragon Reserve Corps and the Suzaku Legion cavalry to bring 10,000 slaves each to escort the cattle and horses. The sheep walked too slowly and could only be pulled by carriages. The Donghu Royal Court saw all this but had no way to deal with it. They could only speed up the pace of migration to the north. Facing the Azure Dragon Corps, if they dared to divide their troops, they would surely suffer a devastating blow.
