This battle against the Setong tribe was the largest and last surprise attack launched by the Tang army after they arrived in Tuguhun.

After this battle, although Cheng Yaojin, Liu Hongji and others transported back a large amount of supplies, the news of their arrival here was spread by countless scattered Setong tribe members.

In the next period of time.

Although Cheng Yaojin and his team led their troops to sweep around like plowing the ground, they did not encounter even a Tuguhun tribe except killing some scouts sent by Tuguhun people and exploring the sentry.

The small tribes that were scattered around the country had already packed up their things before Cheng Yaojin and the others arrived and fled to the distance with all the belongings they could take away.

As for those big things that cannot be taken away, or the ranch reserved for winter, they also burned them to the fire!

For a time, as Cheng Yaojin's army marched, he often saw black smoke columns soaring straight into the sky in the distance.

Every time I saw these smoke pillars, Xiao Han knew that it was another Tuguhun tribe who made up his mind to set fire with his own hands to burn everything that was useful to them.

"Damn it, it's burned again! These barbarians are so amazing!"

On this day, Xiao Han and his army finally arrived at Harteng after a long journey.

But what is disappointing is that this place is still the same as the tribes of all sizes they passed by before, and it has long been empty, leaving them with only a huge camp site burned by the fire.

Let the army camp near a river that is not polluted by ashes.

Xiao Han, Cheng Yaojin and others drove out together and searched around here.

It is obvious that the Harteng tribe in front of me is really large in scale, at least not much smaller than the Setong tribe.

Unfortunately, the place has become charred now, with only some completely carbonized fences left, and they are still quietly standing on the dark land, as if telling their unwillingness.

"His grandma, isn't it said that the Halten tribe's life is honest and aggressive? Why did he follow him? "

At the forefront, Cheng Yaojin jumped off the horse, then reached into the thick ashes. Until he confirmed that the ashes were cold inside, he then pulled his hand back in disappointment and cursed.

Judging from the temperature of these ashes, people have been away for at least a few days. At their speed, they don’t know where these people are leaving. If they want to chase them, they will definitely not be able to catch up!

At this time, Liu Hongji, who was following behind, also drove his horse slowly. He did not dismount like Cheng Yaojin, but rode on the horse and looked down at the huge camp wreckage and smiled bitterly:

"Brother Cheng, they are stupid, but not stupid! There are so many people now, it would be strange if they dare to come and fight with them in their tribe!"

Duan Zhixuan snorted coldly and said, "Then they can join forces with several more tribes and go together! My mother is so happy. It's been a few days and I can't even see my personal hair! If this continues, I will still be a big fight, and it's almost the same to play hide-and-seek!"

"Ahem..."

Xiao Han fell at the end of several people, and when he heard them talking, his brows frowned.

He coughed twice, and was about to speak, but he was not careful that Xiaodong, who was not far away, seemed to find something. Suddenly he pointed to a place and shouted: "Mr. Marquis! Come and see!"

"What do you see?"

When Xiao Han heard Xiaodong's shouting, his expression was stunned at first, then he hurriedly moved forward, rushed to Xiaodong, and looked at the position he pointed at.

“That’s…”

And this look! Even though Xiao Han thought he was knowledgeable, he couldn't help but widen his eyes by the scene in front of him.

I saw that it was under a gentle slope not far from Harteng Camp site!

A large area of ​​ashes that could hardly be seen at first sight suddenly appeared in their eyes!

The scale of this ruin is so large that it occupies almost all of their sight, several times larger than the Harteng tribal camp I just saw!

And, unlike the camp site that burned almost clean!

Although it was also burned by the fire once, some burned corpses can be clearly seen among the ashes of the ruins!

This adds a bit strange and cold to this place!

"This is their sheep plate! Such a big sheep plate, they said they would burn it, and they would burn it?"

Just as Xiao Han looked at the wreckage in shock, Liu Hongji, who was following behind him, also took a breath!

"Sheep plate?!"

Xiao Han had heard of this term in the mouths of others before.

It is said that this is a place like a safe haven opened by some large tribes on the grassland in order to allow livestock in the tribe to survive the winter safely.

And it is called a disk.

It is because on weekdays, the shepherd will throw the cow dung, hay and other things they have picked up here.

Gradually, this place will become a little higher than the surrounding area, and it looks like a plate.

In winter, cattle and sheep will lie on these cow dung and keep warm on the hay, so it is called sheep plate.

Among the grassland tribes, a large sheep plate is often the greatest wealth in their tribe!

Because of such a sheep plate, it often takes years or even decades to complete it.

With it, the livestock in the tribe can be lying on it during the snowy season, thereby isolating the cold and moisture brought by the earth, making it easier for them to survive the difficult winter! It greatly increases the chance of livestock survival!

You should know that on the grassland, every winter, there will be shepherds who will be frozen to death because of the livestock in their homes and will be frost-free, which will lead to their lives being unsustainable after the spring of the next year, so they can only commit themselves to other livestock families as slaves and servants!
