The snowfields are busy.
In the center of the camp tent, there was a large open space, which was large enough to accommodate thousands of soldiers to assemble.
Armed soldiers were surrounded by armed men, wrapped in animal skins with spears or sword hilts, pacing slowly to and fro.
In the middle of the clearing, there seemed to be a market in chaos, with herds of cattle and sheep, and many men, women, and children, busy in the midst of it.
These were Tatar herders who had been captured by the Warat army, and they were being organized to slaughter livestock.
Livestock have to be fed while they are alive, and the Tatar army even relies on grabbing the forage for the war horses, so how can they have the spare power to feed, and now it is the cold winter season, and the livestock can be preserved even if they are slaughtered, so it is just the use of these captured slaves to deal with them.
There is not much blood on the ground, the shepherds on the grassland, regardless of men, women and children, have a skillful skill in slaughtering livestock, only a palm-sized knife in their hands, can slaughter, peel, decompose a livestock, even blood is not wasted, in the whole process, splashed on the ground a few drops of blood, are considered to be unskilled.
After the livestock is slaughtered, the skin, hair, meat, horn, tendon, glue, bones, etc. should be classified and processed, and the whole body of the livestock is a treasure, and every part has great use, all of which are wealth, and naturally cannot be wasted.
The herdsmen in charge of slaughtering their animals were numb, many of which were meant to be used for this winter's food, and many of which were chosen for next year's mothers, ready to breed and be used as seeds, were now slaughtered.
However, the tribes on the grassland, the rise and fall, are now called masters and now called slaves, and everyone is used to it.
Their adaptation is very strong, and they can also face the reality: today you are my vassal, and if you defeat me, I will be a vassal to you; Now I am her wife, and I will serve your pillow and bear you children.
It is not easy to survive on the grassland, and the existence of life is based on righteousness, chastity and emotion, knowing that becoming slaves is the best ending, so they quickly entered the role and worked hard.
In a gray and tattered tent, Sakura stood there, her face cold and blue, pinching her cheeks, as if she was frozen.
This is a tent for slaves, and naturally there will be no felt carpet on the ground, and if she sits, it will be even more sad, so she can only stand.
Suddenly, a group of men in armor and neatly dressed men approached the tent, and those who were patrolling the edge of the field, pointing to the women who were working in the field, to see who was still passable, and who were going to wait for the slaughter of the cattle to be finished, and then dragged back to the tent.
The women who worked in the field were not too pretty, and the more handsome women had been preempted by the leaders and brought back their tents.
It wouldn't be a bad thing if the rest of these women were chosen, at least she would have a warmer place to stay, more food to eat than the others, and a better chance of surviving.
And whether those ordinary slaves, frozen or hungry, can hold on to it, it can only be left to fate.
In this cruel living environment, a beautiful woman is far more likely to survive than ordinary people.
The group stopped when they walked to the tent where Sakura was being held, and stood there in a row, with one of them striding into the tent with four guards.
She is Mrs.
Huo'a, wearing a precious sea dragon skin leather jacket on her upper body, but a pair of fox skin trousers on her lower body, and a pair of cowhide felt boots on her feet, which has a good warmth effect and is easy to ride and shoot, but she is a little bloated to wear, which hides her bewitching figure that turns all beings upside down.
From a distance, it seems that a noble leader with a fair face and graceful bearing, only when she gets close, can she see her charming facial features and a pair of watery peach blossom eyes.
These peach blossom eyes, but at the moment, they were faintly evil, staring coldly at Sakura, and for a long time, Mrs.
Huo'a slowly spit out a sentence: "Ulan Tuya, hello, you are very good" Sakura already knew that she had fallen into the hands of the pursuers sent by Mrs.
Huo, and after her identity was revealed, she knew that she would definitely meet with Mrs.
Huo, but at the moment she looked calm and did not panic, but just saluted Mrs.
Huo'a, and said calmly: "Ulan Tuya has seen Hatun" "I thought that you died in the battle between Hashha and the Three Kings, and I was sad for you for a long time" Speaking of this, a red tide of anger appeared on Mrs.
Huo'a's white face: "Although you and I are distant relatives of Ulantuya, but since you defected to me, I have treated you like a dear relative, it is really not thin, why didn't you say goodbye, and then defected to Arutai My Warat army was attacked as soon as they entered Tatar, they knew our route well, I have never been able to figure it out, but it turned out that you told why you did this" Sakura knew that this matter could not be hidden, and Mrs.
Huo'a must have heard the truth from the other captured generals, she had already thought of a statement, and then lowered her eyes lightly, and said lightly: "Because, I don't want to marry the Great Khan" Sakura slowly raised her eyes and said softly: "Hatun has a bad fate, although he now holds the authority, rules one side, and belongs to his life, but I can never help myself Ulan Tuya doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of Hatun, I have nothing, now only this body belongs to me, I want to give it to someone I love."
Mrs.
Huo'a laughed: "Ridiculous and ridiculous man hahaha, the reeds on the meadow, can you rely on giving you an ice cube, you can make crutches only wealth, power, and territory are real things, you still have this fantasy just for this, you betrayed me You said, we sent troops to fight against the Tatars, where did you find out the news" Sakura didn't say a word, only closed her eyes, covered her eyes with long, neat eyelashes, and raised her chin slightly, making a gesture of letting you dispose of it.
A guard next to Mrs.
Huo'a shouted: "Bold, Hatun asked, you dare not answer" Mrs.
Huo'a stopped his movements and said coldly to Sakura, "I heard that Arutai accepted you as a righteous daughter" Sakura pursed her lips and didn't answer, but Mrs.
Huo'a smiled coldly and said, "Okay, I treat you like my own, but you betrayed me and defected to Arutai, let's see what Arutai does to you."
The ice and snow are snowy, the road is congested with heavy snow, and the pedestrians are extinct, but in the vast snowfield, there is a group of people trudging forward.
The snow is knee-deep, the horses have been unable to run freely, once stopped, but also to wrap them with cold and warm wraps, belly, and felt blankets, to prevent the horses from freezing, this is not suitable for riding horses, so more than 100 people are divided into more than a dozen climbing plows, pulled by dogs, driving the climbing plough is from the Jurchen people to find the climbing plow master, under their control, the climbing plow is galloping on the snowfield.
Ding Yu wore a sheepskin jacket, cotton pants, astringent cowhide felt boots, a dogskin hood, and a towel on his face, the edge of the towel had been covered with a layer of white frost and snow, and a pair of shining eyes were also stained with a lot of frost, making a pair of thick eyebrows turn white.
In the distance, a gray shadow could be seen, a tabernacle, and at this time Arutai's garrison was about to arrive, and Arutai was receiving a messenger of Varat in the big tent.
Arutai grain and grass was burned, and he was furious, and he began to suspect that there was an enemy inside him, because the place where the grain and grass were stationed was very secret, even most people in his own clan did not know, but since he could know that the people who were the core personnel of the Tatars, he really couldn't guess who leaked the secret.
At present, the Tatars are in danger, and it is impossible for him to clean the interior in a big way, in order to stabilize the people's hearts, he has to press the matter and leave it alone, temporarily ask Liaodong for food, and at the same time urgently ask the Ming Emperor for mediation.
Because Ji Gang has done tricks, the development of the situation has been beyond Xia Xun's control, and the emergency measures that need to be taken involve military, political, diplomatic and other major aspects, without the permission of the emperor, Xia Xun can not move and it is impossible to mobilize troops and horses to make arrangements, so he hurriedly wrote a chapter, first to report to the emperor, at this moment the holy decree has not yet come down, Ding Yu received Arutai's message for food, learned that the Tatars were defeated, and hurried to investigate the latest situation.
Liaodong will become the main force to take over Tatar, and Ding Yu is one of the only three people in Liaodong who knows about Xia Xun's overall plan, so he naturally knows this task.
The other two are both commanding envoy Zhang Jun and political envoy Wan Shiyu.

Since he learned of the Tatar mutation, of course he had to take a closer look in order to understand it clearly and prepare for Liaodong's intervention.
Although Arutai suffered a big loss, fortunately there was still Liaodong as a backer, so he did not despair.
Although he suffered heavy losses, he also inflicted heavy losses on the Warat side, and Arutai broke several generals, but also captured several of Warat's generals, including Mandu Ratu, the Warat general who burned his grain and grass.
The most important factor that allowed him to stabilize the morale of the army was that in the chaotic battle, the king of Wara Xianyi, who was killed by the army, lost his surname in a stream.
This was the good news that he learned after cleaning up the battlefield, and now the heads of the Taiping were hanging on the high pole outside the tent, and they had caught this straw, and the Tatar tribes that were about to collapse had finally boosted their morale a little and prevented them from falling apart.
The envoys of the Warat side were not sent by the Great Khan of "Tokhot and Buhua", but by Huo'ahatun, Mandu Latu was a member of the wisdom and courage of the general under the Huo'ahatun tent, and he was also a supporter of Huo'ahatun, and his capture was a big blow to Huo'ahatun.
Huoa Hatun sent someone to send a message, willing to exchange Ulan Tuya for Mandu Latu, and the two sides will exchange horses.
Arutai was entrenched at the top, and as soon as he heard that the envoy explained his intentions, he laughed loudly: "It is ridiculous that Ahatunan dares to blackmail this king with a woman, you want to change it, and you will change the general, and the general under the command of this king, Ars, was captured by your Wara, and he was exchanged for him, and the king agreed."
When Ars's stunned father, Lord Na Song, the leader of the Chaba cadres, heard this, and couldn't help but glance at Arutai gratefully.
The envoy of Huoa Hatun said: "Arshuang was captured by the tribe of the Taiping Lord of the Xianyi King, the Taiping Lord died in battle, the group is in turmoil, how can Hatun ask for people from the tribe of the Xianyi King in order to replace the general of his own clan As far as I know, this Ulan Tuya is the righteous daughter of the king, and it is she who reported the news, so that the king won the first battle, annihilated my 20,000 troops of Wara, and the king has a great merit, does the king really bear to abandon it?"
Arutai's eyes were cold, and he shouted: "This king is determined to be in the world, just a woman, how can he ever take it to heart and say that it is just a Ulan Tuya, even if she is the biological mother and daughter of this king, and she has a wife, it is not a pity to change it, so let my love return, otherwise, it is just a life-and-death situation, what is the benefit of talking" To be continued:
