After a long time, Iron Teeth exhaled a long mouthful of white mist: "Speak carefully, what food is it?"

Fu Guang blinked cunningly: "I want to ask the king to agree to something."

His attitude was very rude. Although he was obedient on the surface, he had a faint threat in his words.

Tie Teeth looked at him with a cold look.

Suddenly, I laughed.

This young man is far from as simple as he thought at first.

He has requirements and desires.

This is reasonable.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Tiechi dispelled most of his vigilance.

"I beg the king not to start a massacre after conquering Panshi Village. Of course, you can take away some of my tribe members, and you can also take away most of the food and property. I will only ask the king to leave half of the people... or less... it's okay." He hesitated a little and hesitated several times.

Tiechi felt that he had seen through the other party’s thoughts: “Do you want to be the leader of Panshi Village?”

"That location was mine!" This question was a strong stimulation to Fu Guang, and he screamed almost immediately: "Tianhao killed my father, and he snatched everything that should have belonged to me!"

Tie Teeth has a slight jaw. This is similar to what he learned. Panshi Village claims to the outside world that Fusong died of illness, but this result is actually not hidden from the heart. However, from the perspective of an outsider, Tie Teeth is so happy to see the Niu people in an internal strife. Now another son of the former leader Fusong comes out, and he always asks him to help him revenge... As for the gift he mentioned before, the credibility has increased exponentially.

Tiechi sneered: "It's too early to make the conditions now. Young man, you have to understand what "equivalent exchange" means. Let's talk about food first! That's the point."

Fu Guang, who had freckles on his face, obviously had no experience in this regard. He thought for a while, but in the end he still wanted to overwhelm reason and gained the upper hand.

"Tianhao is taking action against other villages under your rule by King. As far as I know, it even includes a city with a population of over 10,000."

Tiechi felt a nerve in his mind suddenly tighten: "To be specific. Which villages? Which city?"

"This... I'm not very clear. They have been guarding against me, and I have heard the news through other methods." Seeing the face of Tiechi that suddenly showed anger, Fu Guang quickly added: "But I know that they have raised a lot of food and intend to bribe and lure your subordinates, so that they can take everyone to betray the king like Black Tooth in the village."

Iron teeth slowly suppressed the mania in his heart, and the fierce light in his eyes quickly dimmed. He sat cross-legged in the car, gently tapping his knees with his middle finger in his right hand.

This is the point!

Fu Guang should not have lie, his words are extremely credible. Tian Hao, the current leader of Panshi Village... Humph! He did this before, using grain as an excuse to lure the three villages of Gushan, Miquan and Liankang to betray them at the same time, completely turning to the Niu tribe.

"Where is the batch of food you mentioned?" At this moment, Tiechi almost completely dispelled his suspicion of Fu Guang.

"When I left the village, they were putting the food on a slide. There were a lot of food and heavy. They couldn't walk fast. I guess it would be about one day away from your army, King."

"Their destination?" This is another focus of Tieto's concern.

"This... I really don't know. I only know the general direction. This is the secret I have tried a lot of effort to find out." Fu Guang replied carefully: "They are walking the road to the east."

The map I had seen before suddenly appeared in Tiechi's mind.

There is only one road from Steel Ya City to Panshizhai.

But there is a fork on the way. Just like a diamond, the two opposite corners extend in a straight line. Whether to the left or right, they will eventually walk to the line connected to the diagonal.

Which road to the east?

A trace of suspicion flashed deep in the iron-toothed eyes, and disappeared quickly.

The route to the west was chosen because there were large woods on the way, which could easily log and burn wood to keep warm. As for the east, there was a wilderness without any obstacles. If Fu Guang was a spy sent by Panshi Village to trick himself into being deceived, then this method would be too clumsy.

What are the benefits of cheating themselves on the road east?

ambush?

Don't joke, that open terrain is impossible to ambush. If it is an angled path formed by a valley, Tiechi will definitely be vigilant. But there are plains, and occasionally a few hills are also gentle slopes. If you really want to start a war in such a place, Tiechi will definitely not be able to find it.

"Enough for me to eat for a week?" After thinking for a long time, Tiechi asked seriously: "Is there really so much food?"

He was really moved.

Fu Guang took a step forward, his face full of ruthlessness and decisiveness: "I can't run away. Master, you can send someone to stare at me at any time. If I have a lie, cut off my head and divide my body, and let the king do whatever he wants."

The cold-faced iron teeth stared at him for half a minute, and suddenly laughed.

He put his right hand on his knee and gently stroked it, as if there was a small animal that was irritated by his master. His gentle tone was not used to the iron teeth: "Then just say it, you are leading the way. If everything is true, there is so much food you said, I promised to break through Panshi Village and leave you with 500 Cattle people. Haha... The Pig and Cattle people should be friendly in the times. With a young man like you as the leader of the village, I believe there will be more opportunities for cooperation between us."

...

With the new order issued, the army began to turn.

Tiechi specially selected the most trusted general and led two thousand elite soldiers, including personal guards, to set out in advance, and played the forward according to the route mentioned by Fu Guang.

The main force is behind, and the speed will definitely be slower. Tiechi is a cautious person. If there is an accident, the strength of the two thousand elite troops is enough to deal with it. The distance between the front and back teams is not too far apart. Keep in touch at any time, and either side can interact and support it.

Three times the manpower was arranged to monitor Fu Guang, all of whom were tall and strong guards. Compared to them, Fu Guang was just a toy: he was short and thin. Not to mention that he suddenly attacked him after leaving the surveillance, even trying to escape from that circle was a luxury.

Tiechi smiled with satisfaction.

This battle is somewhat interesting, not as boring as I imagined.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, news came from the front.

A messenger wearing light leather armor ran to the carriage quickly, knelt on one knee with ecstasy faces, panting, "Report to the King, the forward wins a great victory, we...we have received a lot of food."

Iron teeth suddenly lifted the curtain in front of the car, poked his head out of the car, suppressing his nervousness and expectation, and asked: "How many?"

"Many." The soldiers of the Pig clan obviously had no idea about numbers. He was restoring his breathing rhythm and trying to describe the matter clearly: "There are dozens of wooden cars, all filled with food."

Tie Teeth subconsciously raised his head and his eyes fell on Fu Guang, who was surrounded by his personal guards. He rubbed his hands with satisfaction and issued an order in excitement and happiness: "Speed ​​up, I want to see with my own eyes how many... Also, I will pass on my order, no one is allowed to eat without authorization, otherwise he will kill him."

The news of the victory of the first battle soon spread throughout the army.

The word "food" is repeatedly mentioned at an extremely high frequency, spoken from countless mouths, and penetrates into more people's ears.

"I heard that I beat the Niu tribe before and seized a lot of food."

"I know the man who ran back to pass the order. He said that the Niu tribe suffered a great loss this time, and the food we got was at least as high as the mountain."

"Then can we have a good meal tonight?"

"That's for sure. Only when you're full can you have the strength to fight! Hahahaha..."

People were talking and the sound became louder and louder. I could hear the iron teeth sitting in the carriage, and my expectation was much more swelling than before.

This is how war is. High morale needs victory to be maintained, and sufficient logistics supplies are also important. The gods are above us, and the gods are indeed blessing us. The most worried issue seems to have been solved. The stupid Niu tribe tribe has had an internal strife. God sent himself a spy, Fu Guang, to make up for his final shortcomings.

At dusk, the main force of the Pig Army converged with the vanguard, and Tiechi finally saw the batch of food that Fu Guang mentioned.

Dozens of sledges were surrounded by armed guards in the center. Each of them was large and there were supplies like a hill.

Frozen hard fish, large chunks of venison, bags of flour, cheese in large pottery jars, and twenty jars of wine.

The leader of the Iron-Telephant Guard, who was by the Iron-Telephant, lifted up the cover on the nearest slide and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, all the cars are full of food. I have sent someone to count them, and the types and quantities are very rich, which can be kept for a long time."

"Very good, this is exactly what I want." Tiechi had no doubt about the words of the personal guard commander.

He is actually a very cautious person.

The difference between truth and hypocrisy is so obvious that one can often judge from the appearance.

If only a few grain trucks are available, Tiechi will definitely still have doubts. Some links of the war are actually no different from fishing. In order to achieve the goal of annihilation of the other party, you have to pay some price and set up bait.

If the food in front of them was bait thrown out by the cattle people on purpose, then they would be too stupid. Iron teeth calculated that the number was so large that if they saved some food, it would be enough for all the soldiers under their command to consume one-way on the marching road.

Moreover, these grains are carefully selected and high-quality products. He has carefully looked at it: the cured meat is cut into fist-sized pieces, not shop-bred together with bones; frozen fish are carefully cleaned, specially hollowed out the internal organs, and cut them into small pieces. This method can be stored for a long time; although the pocket is a common rough noodles, it is not a "mixed substance admixture" commonly eaten by the pigs. There is no sawdust and grass seeds, nor is there any grass roots and bark that are ground into powder after drying. Such flour is delicious, nutritious and easy to digest.

There are a lot of cheese, and no one will give it to others for free. This thing is very expensive and can be sold at a very high price.

Finally, it is the wine contained in the jar.

They became the last evidence to dispel Ironto suspicion.

The only thing he didn't understand was why no cattle prisoners were captured, and even no other corpse was left at the battle scene.

"They ran too fast." The commander of the personal guard was helpless: "We don't know when they arrived, and the other party was very careful. There were not many Cattle people escorting the food. In addition to the people who were slid, they also brought dozens of horses. The terrain here is open and there are no obstacles. When they found them, they also saw us. As soon as I ordered a charge, they immediately turned around and ran away. According to my guess, the Cattle people had already received the news of our departure, but they didn't know which direction we came from. At the same time, they were thinking of rushing to transport the food in front of us, but they didn't expect to meet it on the road."

Iron teeth thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

This is the most logical explanation.

In fact, there is no need to think so much. The spoils you have obtained are the best proof. He smiled and ordered the guards to: "It's almost dark, so let's camp here tonight! Order the people below to distribute food according to the usual double standards, so that everyone can have a good meal."

Iron teeth need more morale.

In fact, he had a vague regret: if he wasn't so cautious, blocked the news in advance, and sent personal guards as strikers alone, he would have a great chance to eat up this batch of spoils.

It's too late to do anything now.

Everyone knew that a large amount of food had been seized, and everyone saw animal meat and flour. Especially those city lords and leaders who fought with them had a strong interest in cheese and wine... If they were not distributed to them, there would be many oppositions from below, and they would be very loud.

Since you can't hide it, let's just split it up!

Let everyone eat enough, treat everyone from soldiers to officers equally, so that they can show their fairness and justice as the patriarch.

We must look at it for a long time.

The Niu people in Panshi Village were indeed rich. Since they could use so much food to bribe other pig villages and instigate rebellion, the amount of materials stored in Panshi Village must be greater.

This battle will definitely bring great rewards.

Fu Guang did not lie.

Winning this battle should leave him with more people from the Cow tribe. Having such an obedient guy as the leader is equivalent to opening the door to the inside of the Cow tribe territory.

Any ruler who has ambitious ambitions likes to lead the way.

...

The strong aroma of food permeates the dark night.

Temporary camping is very simple, just put the baggage outside into a circle. The pigs are hard-working and can fall asleep peacefully even in the Bingtian Academy. Moreover, there are still a lot of bonfires, fragrant barbecue, and delicious soup.

The fish and venison were cut into pieces and the soup was not long. The soldiers of the pig clan took off their helmets, mixed the distributed flour and kneaded them, and baked them on a high heat to make bread.
Chapter completed!
