Chapter 145: Dong Liao sends good news, Mo Bei sends a great gift
Li Cheng also joined the army at that time, and started his promotion by luckily killing the Beimang cavalry.
At that time, Li Cheng personally fought against Beimang.
At that time, it seemed that the Beimang cavalry was simply one against five, and a group of Beimang cavalry could even fight one against ten!
Beimang is the symbol of terror.
They could easily break through the defense line of Eastern Liao and invade the heartland of Great Zhou.
In that era, the people of Luzhou and Qinzhou were living in poverty and were often robbed by the Northern Mang.
It was also at that time that Li Cheng determined to wipe out the Northern Mang.
As Li Cheng was promoted step by step, by the time he became the commander-in-chief of Eastern Liao, it was already the end of the previous emperor's reign.
At that time, the army of the Great Zhou was still like this, but the Northern Mang, which originally had less than 10,000 people, already had more than 10,000 households.
Beimang also established eight tribes and remained extremely powerful.
But Li Cheng discovered that they were no longer the invincible Beimang with tens of thousands of troops as before, and the Beimang soldiers would also flee.
In the past, the soldiers of Beimang would never run away no matter what.
They will fight to the death until all are dead.
Even seriously injured Beimang soldiers would simply pretend to be dead.
When someone goes over to clean up the battlefield, these soldiers will try their best to launch a sneak attack and will take them with them even if they die!
The Beimang people at that time were very terrifying.
But when Li Cheng became the commander-in-chief of Eastern Liao, the people of Beimang began to flee.
Soon, not only did the Beimang people flee, they also began to surrender.
Li Cheng gradually discovered that this group of enemies had also changed.
Many high-ranking officials of Beimang, including Qinuchi, also knew about the changes in their troops.
Beimang is a bitter and cold place. Initially, Beimang only had one tribe, the Lion and Tiger.
At that time, looting was a way to save yourself.
The people of Beimang were also extremely poor. They could only rob others in order to return home and eat meat. If they failed to rob others, they would freeze to death in the snowy fields in winter.
The people of Beimang at that time were not afraid of death.
But after many years, the people of Beimang have changed.
The life of the tribal nobles was so luxurious that even the princes of the Great Zhou envied them.
The life of the Khan of Beimang was even more comfortable than that of the Emperor of Da Zhou.
For example, Zag has lived in a gorgeous tent since he was a child.
His father was the Khan of the Black Pig Tribe, and Zag grew up among lambs and gold.
Zag didn't know how cold the winter in Beimang would be.
Because there is always a heated bed in his tent.
Zag didn't know how his ancestors used bows and horses to scare their opponents.
Instead, I think all this is as it should be.
Originally, all this could still be maintained, and then the Northern Mang and the Great Zhou would just see which one was worse.
The one that rots faster will be swallowed up as nutrients.
But no one expected that the Great Zhou would have an emperor named Li Tian.
He cleared out the mediocre ministers in the court and appointed Tang Xiaoren to advocate reform.
Abolish the century-old river transportation problems and replace them with more efficient sea transportation.
Build railway transportation and open up the South Sea route.
Such an emperor is a disaster for Beimang.
Li Cheng studied new weapons and new combat strategies day and night.
I didn’t expect that they would surrender so quickly when they encountered the Eight Tribes of Northern Mang for the first time?
Li Cheng felt a little unsatisfied, but his subordinates were ecstatic.
Everyone knows Zag's flag.
This is the wolf flag that can only be used by the Khan of the Eight Tribes of Northern Mang!
The totem of the grassland is the wolf.
This means that the one who surrendered was the Khan of one of the Eight Tribes!
What an achievement this is!
This is an achievement that can earn you a title of nobility!
Li Cheng quickly accepted Zag's surrender.
The Black Pig Tribe, one of the eight tribes of Northern Mang, surrenders!
This news immediately reached Chinuchi's ears.
Qinuchi spat out a mouthful of blood!
"Zag! Why would Zag surrender? Shouldn't we send him to attack the fortress?"
Serving beside Qinuchi were his seven beile.
The Seventh Prince also investigated and said, "It was a staff officer under Zag who gave Zag the idea to bypass the fortress and attack the camp of the Great Zhou."
"They said the defense there must be weak. As long as we rush into the Great Zhou territory, we can rob and win."
Chinuchi even regretted his son-in-law's stupidity!
“Zag, this idiot, even if he can break through the defense line, can he rush into the heart of Da Zhou?”
"Doesn't he know that Li Cheng is best at layered defense?"
"This idiot! He ruined our good son!"
Qinuchi's face turned red with anger!
In fact, he didn't care about those wolf masters.
They surrendered before the war officially started. It seems unlucky no matter how you look at it.
And Chinuch originally just wanted Zag to try it.
Of course it would be best if Zag could be taken down.
If Zag cannot be defeated, then after suffering heavy casualties, Chinuchi can take advantage of the opportunity to take away his military power.
I didn't expect Zag to be such a loser!
Not only did he fail to take it down, he also ran towards the other side and gave himself a head.
And he surrendered so easily!
What do other tribes on the grassland think of this news?
Other tribes will surely shrink back!
Qinuchi became more and more angry and spat out blood again!
Here, Li Cheng verified Zag's identity and immediately had him escorted to Kyoto to report the victory!
Before the war officially started, a Khan from one of the Eight Tribes of Northern Mang was captured!
The morale of the Great Zhou is even higher!
Li Tian, who was enjoying himself leisurely in the royal forest garden, had no idea that his valued loyal minister Li Cheng was rushing to deliver him a big gift!
When Li Tian was happily instructing Concubine Mei in martial arts, the King of Mobei also gave him a big gift.
Li Guangmao, the prince of Mobei, led his troops to sweep the small tribes near the Lanlu tribe.
This is the unspoken understanding between the King of Mobei and the Lanlu Tribe.
The King of Mobei sent troops to harass, and the Lanlu tribe just happened to not want to attack the Great Zhou.
So the two sides started to cooperate with each other.
The Lanlu tribe has been having a great time these days.
Without having to send troops to attack the Great Zhou, there would be room to recuperate.
The Lanlu tribe took the opportunity to send troops and occupied the grasslands of several surrounding small tribes.
If these small tribes surrender, the Lanlu tribe will inform the King of Mobei's troops that this tribe is their own.
Small tribes that disobey will be marked as enemies by the Lanlu tribe.
Li Guangmao led the dragoons and focused on attacking this group of enemies.
This small tribe is not stupid either.
The Lanlu tribe's actions were so obvious that some small tribes simply surrendered to Mobei.
Some of them took refuge in the Lanlu tribe.
Some stubborn ones did not want to surrender to either side, but no one supported them, so they had to continue fleeing to pastures farther away.
When the third prince of Qinuchi arrived with the elite of the lion and tiger tribe.
The annexation of the Lanlu tribe has been completed.
After the Third Beile arrived at the Lanlu tribe, he was warmly welcomed by the Khan of the Lanlu tribe.
Qihar pulled the Third Prince and kept praising him for his bravery and invincibility, saying that he had the same demeanor as Qinuchi when he was young.
Qihar and Qinuchi are of the same generation.
After receiving Qihar's praise, the Third Prince felt a little better.
