Zhou Cheng led his army to hunt down the coalition forces of Ding Ling and Rouran from day to night.

More than 6,000 enemy troops were killed and more than 6,000 war horses were captured.

The Ding Ling and Rouran coalition forces fled in all directions and were defeated.

Tian Chou also killed someone today. This was his first time killing someone.

The moment the long sword pierced the enemy's chest, the feeling of warm blood splashing on his face, and the image of the enemy looking at him with hateful and desperate eyes were all fixed in his mind.

He Man and Zhou Cang each led their troops to continue the pursuit.

Zhou Cheng, on the other hand, gathered his troops and horses and set up camp to rest.

At this time, there were obviously fewer people in the death camp in the camp.

As Zhou Cheng said, they are all dying people, but it is so refreshing to have wine, meat, women, and horses riding on the grassland.

Moreover, they all felt that being able to fight with Zhou Cheng was the luckiest thing in their lives.

Outside the tent, a bonfire was lit, and a war horse was roasting on the fire rack. Zhou Cheng asked Tian Chou,"How did you feel in the first battle?"

Tian Chou replied,"It's a little different from what the Art of War says. In a daytime battle, without the lord and the bravery of the death cavalry, the dawn cavalry, and the tiger camp, it would be difficult for the enemy's vanguard to fight. Break."

Tian Chou fought with Ding Ling. The opponent was not only savage and brave, but also powerful, with superb shooting and riding skills.

Facing such an enemy, without strong generals and strong troops, it would be difficult to win.

Zhou Cheng said:"I don't understand the art of war, nor have I read it. However, your suggestion is correct. Attack the forward and attack its two wings. The enemy is indeed panicked and defeated. This saves us a lot of energy. Of course, No one is born with the ability to lead troops in war. You have done a good job and know how to analyze the enemy's military formation and attack the enemy's vital points."

Tian Chou stood up and saluted Zhou Cheng:"Chou is young and still has many shortcomings.……"

Before Tian Chou could finish speaking, Zhou Cheng waved his hand and said,"I am also young, only two years younger than Huo Guanjun, who went deep into the desert for the first time. Age and origin do not affect my ability and talent. I trust you, that is trust. You."

Tian Chou was moved from the bottom of his heart. He died for his confidant. Being able to be trusted by Zhou Cheng made him unable to help but salute again. His voice was slightly choked and he said:"I am willing to die for the Lord."

……

When Zhou Cang and He Man returned, they did not bring back many war horses.

Although the troops were routed after a night of pursuit, Ding Ling and Rouran's equestrian skills were indeed superb and they could not accept it.

Zhou Cheng joined Zhou Cang and He Man's troops, and the vanguard continued northward and entered the territory of the Ding Ling people. There was no large force waiting for Zhao Chen, Zhen Xian and others.

During the march, Xu Fang's

Guan Hai led an army of 50,000. Under the guidance of Qianman's cavalry, he successfully found and defeated Fuluohan's tribe, killing more than 20,000 Xianbei young and old, young and old, and capturing 10 people..

Among them, there are 30,000 Xianbei women, more than 60,000 Han men and women, and the rest are Dingling and Rouran people, all slaves of the Xianbei people.

The number of cattle and sheep obtained in this battle amounted to more than 200,000, and more than 40,000 horses.

Fulohan wanted to retreat because his tribe was attacked by surprise, and the whole army had no intention of fighting. However, during the retreat, he was chased by the Qianman tribe and suffered heavy casualties, so he had to rendezvous with Budugen first.

After listening to the report, Tian Chou said:"My lord, Fu Luohan suffered heavy losses. He must have joined Bu Dugen in pursuing Guan Hai with resentment. Although Guan Hai gained a lot in this battle, it also slowed down his march.."

After listening to Tian Chou's words, Zhou Cheng also felt that it made sense. Guan Hai had 50,000 people, but he brought more than 200,000 cattle and sheep, more than 40,000 horses, and more than 100,000 people.

If they want to retreat, they will definitely be overtaken by the Xianbei people.

Moreover, how could the Xianbei people let Guan Hai leave with his population, cattle, sheep, and horses?

Zhou Cheng asked:"Do you have any suggestions?"

Tian Chou said:"Inform Qianman that we are willing to distribute more than 30,000 Xianbei women, nearly 10,000 Dingling and Rouran people, as well as half of the cattle, sheep, and horses to them, and then inform Han People continued to go north, driving cattle and sheep, and sent scouts along the way to guide them."

Zhou Cang was the first to stand up and asked,"Military advisor, why should you give it to them?"

Zhou Cheng glared at Zhou Cang and said,"Shut up. Mouth."

Zhou Cang sat down, but his eyes were still waiting for Tian Chou.

So much loot.

There are more than 30,000 Xianbei women. As long as everything goes well, they can give birth to more than 10,000 or even 20,000 more people next year.

There are also cattle, sheep, and horses. With these cattle and sheep, it is enough to last until the summer grain harvest, and hundreds of thousands of people can live without worries.

Tian Chou replied:"Qian Man needs these people to expand his tribe."

He Man snorted:"Nonsense, we need it too."

Bang! Zhou Cheng slapped the table hard, which made He Man tense up in fear. Zhou Cheng said,"If you are rude to the military advisor again, I will kill him." Zhou

Cang, He Man and others did not dare to speak anymore.

Tian Chou said:"If our army monopolizes the population, cattle and sheep, Qianman will definitely sit idly by and let Guan Hai be attacked by Bu Dugen and Fuluohan. But we promise to give Qianman our cattle, sheep, war horses, and population. Qian Man has no reason to refuse, and people are close and distant. If Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen want to regain the population, they must attack Guan Hai and Qian Man at the same time. In comparison, Qian Man is more hateful. In this way, the pressure on Guan Hai will be reduced. Much smaller."

Zhou Cheng nodded:"It makes sense."

Tian Chou continued:"Although these people, cattle and sheep were handed over to Qian Man first, as long as the lord's fierce generals and powerful troops go out to fight, there is nothing on the grassland that cannot be taken. ? Now it’s just temporarily stored in Qianman’s place and can be retrieved later."

Zhou Cang, He Man and others felt relieved after hearing this.

……

In March 185 AD, Zhou Cheng sent an envoy to reach an agreement with Qianman. Qianman obtained nearly 40,000 Xianbei women, Dingling people, Rouran slaves, and half of the cattle, sheep, and war horses.

The Qianman tribe was in urgent need of strengthening itself, so they immediately sent someone to accept it.

Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen, who were preparing to attack Guan Hai, once again pointed their finger at Qian Man. The two sides started a fierce battle on the grassland, and the Xianbei Civil War escalated again.

At the same time, Zhou Cheng led the army and began to attack the Ding Ling people.

The cavalry trampled through the camp of the Dingling people, killing the young, old and weak of the Dingling people, and captured a large number of women, cattle, sheep, and war horses.
