Chapter 442
Chapter 442
The Clean Water Lake, the largest water source near the Bass Tribe, feeds countless barbarians.
Unlike the Xia Kingdom, the barbarians do not have the habit of digging wells to get water. The way they get water is mainly through these naturally formed freshwater lakes.
There is a powerful barbarian tribe near almost every large lake on the grassland.
Water source is the foundation for the survival of the barbarians. Once there is a problem with the water source, the barbarian tribe will be forced to migrate.
There is no way. The racial characteristics determine the way of survival of the barbarians. Such a fatal weakness, the barbarians are powerless to change
"General, I have checked it out. There are 200,000 garrisons here to guard the Clean Water Lake."
The Bass Tribe is a large tribe with a large population, so it pays special attention to the protection of water sources.
"Okay, the whole army is ready to tear the enemy's defense line directly. As long as we rush to the lake, our mission is completed and we will move immediately."
Huo Qubing did not want to directly destroy this garrison. It is not that he cannot do it, but that it is unnecessary.
Leaving enough people behind can create greater panic and spread the news more widely.
The horses neighed, the crowds were noisy, and the sudden attack began.
In order to avoid being too conspicuous, the Barbarian Iron Cavalry did not change into the standard equipment of the Zhenbei Army, but still wore the equipment with the characteristics of the Barbarians.
Huo Qubing took off his beautiful armor, changed into the Barbarian armor, and personally led the army to charge.
"Enemy attack."
With a loud warning, the Barbarian Iron Cavalry responded quickly.
The Barbarian Iron Cavalry in charge here knew the importance of water sources, and they were usually more vigilant, so they did not appear to be confused when they were attacked.
The war was about to break out.
The Zhenbei Army did not take the destruction of the enemy as its main purpose, and the raid was very fast.
The Barbarians saw this scene clearly, and the other side was coming to destroy the water source.
So, the Barbarians were anxious and resisted desperately like crazy.
They knew very well that once there was a problem with the clean water lake, the Bass tribe would encounter unprecedented difficulties.
Unfortunately, the gap in strength was very obvious.
After nearly two hours of fierce fighting, the barbarians could not stop them and were killed by Huo Qubing.
"No, stop them quickly."
The barbarians saw Huo Qubing and his party arrive at the lake and take out a large number of packages from the backpacks of the horses, and they knew that it was bad.
It was too late, no matter how hard they tried, it would be useless.
Huo Qubing brought the poison developed by Hua Tuo, which was extremely strong and would spread rapidly once it was put into the water.
Without a special antidote, this lake was completely useless.
"Retreat."
The goal was achieved, and Huo Qubing led his troops to retreat.
The battle here had been going on for almost two hours, and the support of the barbarians was about to arrive. Huo Qubing would not delay and waste his manpower.
Huo Qubing rode away, leaving the barbarians with a desperate look on their faces, and led his army away.
Soon after, barbarian reinforcements appeared one after another around them.
But when they saw the situation on the battlefield, they knew that they were late.
At this time, Bass also came in person.
"Asshole, trash, come, drag him down and chop him up."
Water source is the foundation. If there is a problem here, let alone continuing to attack Barlett, their survival will be in trouble.
In anger, he did not listen to the explanation and directly killed several barbarian generals of the defending army to vent his anger.
"What are you still standing there for? Go check the water source."
Although he knew it was too late, Bass still had hope.
Several horses drank water, and just a few seconds later, several horses vomited blood and died.
"Barlett, you deserve to die, asshole."
Looking at such a powerful poison, Bass went crazy.
"Find a way to detoxify."
Leaving a word, Bass turned and left.
It was useless for him to stay here at this moment, and he had to find a way as soon as possible.
"Chief, there are more than a dozen small lakes nearby. Although there are not many, they can barely cope with it. These water sources must be protected."
Someone hurriedly reminded.
"Order the tribes near the lakes to move to the water source, and send troops there. They must defend it. If attacked, ask for help immediately."
Although it is not enough to solve the problem, if there are problems with these water sources, the Bass tribe must move.
It is extremely difficult for a tribe of this size to move, and it is difficult to find a place to go.
The grassland and water source must be suitable for supporting a large tribe.
There are many such places on the grassland, but almost all of them are occupied by forces. It is difficult to find an unowned land.
Now that the incident happened suddenly, Bass was not prepared at all. Where can he find it?
Besides, there are so many people in the tribe. Once they move, there will be too many difficulties.
"Send someone to the Barbarian Temple for help."
Bass said helplessly.
The best way now is to detoxify, and the barbarians have people who have this ability.It can only be in the Barbarian Temple.
The people in the Barbarian Temple are arrogant and powerful. No Barbarian leader is willing to deal with them unless it is absolutely necessary.
And those people are not free when they take action. The more serious the situation is, the greater the price they have to pay.
Bass really doesn't want to find someone from the Barbarian Temple unless it is a crisis.
"Chief, this poison is extremely powerful. We must be fully prepared."
Some people are worried that the people in the Barbarian Temple can't handle it, which would be a waste of time.
"Chief, why don't you do your best to attack Barlett? As long as you take down Barlett, our difficulties will be solved."
Someone suggested.
Bass fell into deep thought. If he could quickly take down Barlett in a short period of time, he would most likely be able to get a way to detoxify.
However, Bass also knew a lot about the situation in Barlett. Not to mention other things, just the solid city made Bass feel unsure.
If they united with the Gulun tribe, they would surround the cities of Barlett, cut off their food and water sources, and force Barlett to go out of the city for a decisive battle or surrender.
There was still a fight to be won in this battle.
But if they attacked by force, not only would the losses be too great, Bass was also worried that they would not be able to take it.
And he didn't have time to fight this battle slowly now. If the siege went badly and there were problems with the logistics, and the Gulun tribe knew about it, he would probably be retaliated.
On the grassland, there were no enemies or friends, only eternal interests.
Bass was also afraid that the Gulun tribe would cut off his retreat.
This wouldn't work, and that wouldn't work either. Bass was a little confused for a while, not knowing where to go.
"Chief, it's bad. The Barlett cavalry attacked our water source again, and the defenders couldn't stop them at all."
Well, Bass almost vomited blood. He hadn't figured out what to do here, and another small water source was lost.
If this continued, it would be too late to ask for help from the Barbarian Temple or to attack Barlett.
"Order the army to withdraw and disperse to guard the water source."
"Order the small tribes not to resist when they encounter the Barlit cavalry, and tell them that I want to see their heads."
Bass was at a loss and wanted to negotiate to resolve the issue.
