    The caravan had been walking north for four days and began to gradually enter the edge of the prairie. Just like there must be a patch of gray between white and black, this place became the gap between the two major forces of the Han and the Huns.  In the buffer zone, neither side could control this place, so it became a paradise for horse thieves and bandits.

    The Huns have only had tribal alliances for a long time, not a country in the true sense, and the tribes have been constantly fighting each other all year round. The powerful ones annexed the smaller ones, and the new ones replaced the old ones. The remnants of the dispersed Huns tribes often fled.  Go to the buffer zone and make a living by robbing passing business travelers. In addition, some murderous fugitives from the Han region, officers and soldiers who committed crimes, and some remnants of the Yellow Turban Army who are evading wanted by the court are all gathered in this area. Do you have various forces?  Me, you are among me, I rely on the saber in my hand to make a living, I can really be called a mixed bag of dragons and snakes

    Everything in the world is reasonable as it exists. Such a gray area has become an indispensable place for both the Han and the Huns. Some intelligence exchanges between the two sides and many shady transactions were completed in these places, so slowly  Both sides reluctantly acquiesced in the existence of this place. Due to the frequent turmoil in the mainland in recent years, the various tribes of the Xiongnu were also in constant disputes. On the contrary, this area became more and more prosperous, a kind of abnormal prosperity!

    At dusk, the caravan arrived at a river that stretches from east to west and prepared to camp here. The rivers on the grassland were just like the weather in this area. They were unpredictable. During the dry season in spring, the river water was waist-deep and knee-deep.  Slowly, like a jade belt across the waist of a prairie mother, but in the rainy season of autumn, the river water will surge suddenly, rushing down like a galloping horse, revealing its cruel and ruthless side, whether it is humans, horses or  It is extremely difficult for vehicles to pass.

    Before camping, it was customary for the leaders of each caravan to get together to discuss tomorrow's itinerary. When Fatty Cao arrived with sore and numb legs, the other leaders had already arrived, and they couldn't help but numb their legs.  Xiao Yi was talking together. Sitting was more tiring than standing. He didn't even dare to touch his buttocks to the ground. He relied on his two legs to hold him up. He had to pretend to have a condescending expression on his face. It was really tiring. It was tiring.  , and I¡¯m tired!

    "Haha! Hello, leaders, thank you for your hard work!" Fatty Cao's laughter came to him first when he was still more than ten steps away. He smiled when he met everyone and didn't speak when he didn't smile. This was his principle of life, as the saying goes.  Well said, even if you reach out and hit the smiling person, Fatty Cao is able to get around like a fish in the business circle just by relying on his ability to smile.

    "Thank you, Chief Cao!" The hierarchy of people can be reflected everywhere. Among the caravan leaders of each family, Su Shuang, Mr. Jia, and Mr. Hu were sitting on the cargo box, and the rest were standing around them.  On the side, when they saw Fatty Cao approaching, the other leaders all clasped their fists in return, but the three most powerful ones just bowed slightly, which was regarded as a greeting.

    In any case, as the leader of the caravan with the smallest manpower and the smallest power, he can receive unanimous courtesy from everyone, which shows that everyone recognizes Fatty Cao's abilities and also looks at his small caravan with admiration. After all, this strange caravan has been so popular in recent days.  The five-person caravan has indeed shown its abilities. Although there are only a few people, almost all of them have skills, except for the 'useless Xiao Yi' who can only eat and sleep!

    "Chiefs, it has been four days since we came out, and now we have entered the edge of the prairie. I don't know why, fat man, I feel more and more uneasy, as if something is going to happen!" Fear is contagious.  Yes, Fatty Cao kept rubbing his two fat hands while talking. The grassland in autumn is not cold, but his exaggerated movements immediately made everyone feel chilly.  When looking at the endless prairie around them, everyone was filled with fear, as if they sensed some danger.

    "Why are you panicking? We are a dozen caravans gathered together. There are five to six hundred people alone, and all of them are armed with weapons. If an ordinary team of horse thieves wants to take advantage of us, he has to think carefully about it first. Be careful.  Knock out some of his big teeth!" The leader Su Shuang had the most experience. He immediately spoke to reassure people. Seeing that everyone's expressions finally softened, he continued: "But what Lao Cao said is not unreasonable. This grassland  There are dangers everywhere, we must be more vigilant, do you have any good ideas?"

    "What are you afraid of? If there really is a blind thief coming, Master Hu, I am not a vegetarian with this knife. Come one, I will kill one, come two, I will kill both!" Among all the people, Master Hu is the most cruel and kind person.  Fighting, he stuck his sword on the ground, and the red silk on the handle suddenly buzzed and trembled. Half of his words were talking about horse thieves, and the other half was for everyone present to hear.

    "Hmph! What a great prestige. We are here to do business, not to kill people. If you can find a way to save us, please tell us how to do it. Don't just show your knife around."??Be careful of hurting yourself!  "Master Jia, who was dressed in white, had a livid face and pushed back hard. He seemed to be full of anger. As for who made him angry, only God knows.

    "Oh, I wonder what Mr. Jia has to say? It will open my eyes to Mr. Hu!" Mr. Hu played with the knife skillfully, but his eyes did not leave Mr. Jia's handsome little face. As he looked, the corner of his mouth  There was also a hint of a sinister smile full of meaning.

    "In my opinion, we can lengthen the team as much as possible and form a long snake formation. In this way, we can coordinate with each other and help each other. No matter how capable the horse thieves are, they will never think of surrounding us, even if the situation is extremely unfavorable.  At least a large number of people can escape!" Mr. Jia's "one-word long snake formation" method is actually a "gecko's tail-cutting" method, which involves sacrificing some people to take risks and preserve most of them. Although it is not a foolproof strategy, it is still  It's a solution in a crisis-ridden situation.

    "Is there a better way? If not, this is the only way!" Su Shuang began to ask everyone for their opinions. Obviously he also agreed with Mr. Jia's method. It is better for one person to die than to die together!

    Everyone immediately began to discuss it. Some people thought it was unfounded worry and they were just asking for trouble. With such a large caravan passing by, those little horse thieves would die if they came, but most people still thought it was better to be careful.  , but they couldn't come up with any specific solutions, they were just worrying about something. In the end, everyone's eyes turned to Fatty Cao again. You have to come up with a solution to the topic that you kid has caused!

    "Based on the fat man's humble opinion, running is not an option. We have many vehicles, so how can we outrun those horse thieves who come and go like the wind! We will only be eaten by them bite by bite For this plan, we should choose a better option.  At the campsite, this prairie river is winding and rugged. Why don¡¯t we find a turning point to camp? That way the campground can be surrounded by water on three sides. Everyone only needs to concentrate on defending one side, and then we can gather all the vehicles of each family.  Get up, connect end to end, and form a line of defense on the outside, with all the people and horses hiding inside. In this way, even if a large group of horse bandits attack, as long as they can't break through the line of defense, everyone will be safe!" Fatty Cao seemed to have already thought in his mind.  As if I had a draft, I immediately put forward a feasible suggestion.

    "Then what if the horse bandits block us in the river trap? They can't rush in, but we can't rush out either?" As soon as the suggestion came out, some attentive people immediately raised questions.

    "Don't be afraid. We have enough food and grass. We can eat it for ten days and a half. It won't be a problem. Moreover, the camp is backed by a big river, so you don't have to worry about drinking water. In the worst case, we will just spend it with them!" Fatty Cao waved his big hand, looking like he had already been there for a long time.  Thinking about it, "Those horse thieves always come and go like the wind, just like the wolves on the grassland. What they pay attention to is missing a hit and immediately fleeing thousands of miles. They never carry too much dry food with them. If we can  After ten days, they can¡¯t even stand it for two days.¡±

    "Okay, good idea! Just do what Fatty said!" After hearing Fatty Cao's idea, everyone clapped their hands and applauded. In the past, each caravan camped separately, and it was easy to be defeated individually. Now together, we have more strength.  If you are big, you will naturally become more courageous.

    "Then let's prepare separately! Each family is preparing more branches and firewood piles, just in case there is an attack by horse thieves, it will be easy to use during night battles!" Seeing that everyone agreed with his opinion, Fatty Cao made the final additions.  Finally, he turned around and left. He had other things to do, so he had to at least go back and report.

    "I didn't expect this fat man to be able to arrange troops in formation. He has rules and regulations. He is better than Mr. Hu!" Among all the people, Mr. Hu has been a soldier and been on the battlefield. Naturally, he immediately understood Fatty Cao's arrangement.  The clever part is using the river as a barrier and surrounding the vehicles as a wall. Not only can it prevent the cavalry from charging, but you can also stand on the vehicle and assassinate the enemy from a high position. It is also much easier to observe the enemy's movements. This is absolutely  It is a formal fighting method only found in the army.

    Mr. Jia was silent. He was always known for his extraordinary intelligence in the family. The rest of his brothers and sisters were far behind him. Otherwise, it would not have been his turn to lead the team deep into the grassland. You know, the family  There are a lot of brothers and sisters here; but now he has to admit that this fat man's method is much smarter than what he has always thought in his heart. When he thinks that his wisdom is not as good as that of a dead fat man who is a businessman,  Mr. Jia felt as depressed as if he had eaten a fly.

    "He has expert guidance behind him!" After a long silence, Su Shuang said with certainty. He always looked at people with a vicious eye. Although Fatty Cao was a business talent, when it came to marching, fighting, arranging troops,  Formation, that is definitely not his strong point, there must be an expert behind him to give him guidance, but his small caravan only has five people in total, who will be the expert?  ?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
