Under the attack of the regular army and crossbows, the ordinary tribes had no ability to fight back at all.
Except for a few people who tried their best to escape, the rest were all slaughtered.
After killing the tribe, head forward immediately.
With a large number of scouts checking the news, even if many tribes unite to find the Dayuan army to settle accounts.
But they couldn't catch the tail at all.
Wherever they went, tribes were completely slaughtered.
Li Ye made a big detour, then attacked Jinguo and Khitan, using the same method to continuously slaughter the tribes.
Make the enemy feel frustrated and dizzy.
Even if a tribe catches up, they will be defeated quickly.
The wounded were severely injured, leaving corpses all over the ground, and they fled in panic.
The barbarian king is leading his army to attack the city with all his might.
With Shi Wushuang's guidance, he became much smarter.
Just bypass the big cities and focus on attacking small counties.
There were very few troops stationed in the county town, and the city walls were low.
It only takes a few attacks to break through easily.
After they broke into the city, they started a massacre, and the women were raped and then killed.
The whole city was in a state of devastation, and not a single person was left alive.
They captured several cities in succession and reaped rich rewards.
Even Zhao Wudi led his troops to harass and attack from the rear.
But they don't care at all.
Even if you are attacked by surprise and suffer losses, you should not pursue.
Just blindly attack the city.
This made Zhao Wudi very angry.
The barbarians' sudden change in fighting style made him extremely uncomfortable.
Since they cannot defeat the other side, they will not take the initiative to attack.
It's impossible to lure them away.
The most troublesome thing was their newly built shields, which had extremely amazing defensive power, making crossbows almost completely useless.
Only at this moment did Zhao Wudi remember that Li Ye had warned him before that he must not rely solely on the crossbow to win.
Otherwise, you will suffer losses sooner or later.
"Damn it! These enemy troops really deserve to die."
Every time he saw the tragic scenes in the captured cities, Zhao Wudi was filled with rage and wished he could lead his troops to charge across the city and fight the enemy to the death.
But he knew very well that he must not do so. This was Dayuan's most elite army and there must not be any mistakes.
If his impulsiveness caused huge losses, he would be betraying the Sixth Prince's trust.
At this moment, the enemy army was very proud, and after tasting the sweetness, they admired Shi Wushuang even more.
"As expected, the advice given to us by Wushuangzi is very effective.
We are all cavalry and should attack the weakest points.
If Dayuan sends a large force, we will retreat immediately; they can't catch up anyway."
"Hahaha, we should have robbed them a long time ago. The income is so lucrative, why bother spending a lot of money to do business with the Sixth Prince?"
"If we just take down Tang like this, I'm afraid that Sixth Prince will be so angry that he will vomit blood.
Let's see what else he can do to us."
During the break, the Barbarian King was discussing the location of the next attack with his generals.
At this time, a fast horse rushed into the camp.
"The king is gone, something happened in the tribe!"
The Barbarian King was interrupted and became furious: "What are you yelling about? What else could be happening at this time?
Tell those tribes that our attack is going very smoothly and we will be able to bring them a large amount of supplies soon.
Make up for all their previous losses.
Everyone, stay here and behave yourself. No one can cause trouble for me at this time."
"No! The Dayuan army invaded the grasslands and slaughtered the tribes at will.
We have had a dozen tribes massacred.
By the time I arrived, at least hundreds of thousands of people had been injured.
I guess in the past two days, I don’t know how many tribes have been massacred by them.”
After hearing his subordinates' report, the Barbarian King was immediately furious: "What did you just say? Which great army is so bold as to attack the grassland?"
"It is currently unknown, this army has never been seen before.
There are about 20,000 of them, and they are well-equipped with elite troops.
Each man had four crossbows, and each had three fast horses to ride in turn.
They came without a trace, and even our tribes united to intercept them, but were defeated by them.
I'm afraid only the king can lead his army to defeat them."
After hearing the description of the army, the Barbarian King immediately thought that it must be the army sent by Li Ye.
Furious, he overturned the table and roared in rage, "The Sixth Prince of Dayuan actually massacred the barbarian tribes. I will never forgive him.
I must capture him and tear him into pieces to quench the rage in my heart."
All the generals present were panicked.
There are many of their tribes on the grassland. If they are all massacred by Li Ye's army, their families will be completely finished.
He asked me in great panic, "Which tribes are being massacred now? Is our tribe among them?"
"Your Majesty, we cannot wait any longer. We must lead our army back immediately, find this army, and annihilate it."
The Barbarian King's face was extremely gloomy. The situation was now dire and it would be a shame to give up.
He was considering whether there was a compromise solution. Even if the army did not return to defend, they could still rely on the strength of the tribe to destroy the Dayuan army.
He also wanted to understand that Li Ye's purpose in doing this was to force them to retreat.
Once you retreat, you will always be vulnerable.
As long as they attacked Dayuan, Dayuan could send cavalry to attack their tribe.
From now on, it will never be possible to obtain enough supplies by looting the Dayuan clan.
While he was thinking hard, several khans from the Khitan Jin Kingdom also came to the tent.
With a panicked look on his face, he said to the Barbarian King, "Have you heard the news on the grassland? A large army has invaded the grassland and is looting everywhere.
We must immediately lead our troops back to encircle and suppress the enemy.
Otherwise, our country will be completely finished!"
"Don't worry, let me think about it!
Don't you think this is a conspiracy set up by the enemy?
Once we retreat, there will be no chance of attacking Dayuan anymore."
The Barbarian King said with a gloomy face: "We should immediately send people back to unite all the tribes and temporarily recruit all the fighting men into the army.
Let them form an army of 50,000 and search the grasslands for any signs of Dayuan's army activity.
Once found, we can destroy it!"
"It's impossible. You forgot that the Dayuan army is fully equipped with crossbows, and each person has at least four.
Without armor and shields, we are no match for them!" the Jin Khan said anxiously.
Their country is not very large and their population is relatively small.
The Dayuan army had massacred more than 30,000 of them.
At this rate, it won’t be long before the entire tribe is slaughtered.
Without population, wouldn’t he, the Khan, be left alone?
The smaller the country, the more urgent it is to make money.
Their population is only tens of millions, and they simply cannot afford such a huge loss.
"Yes, we can't wait any longer, we must return to defense immediately."
