Chapter 3 Encountering the Tandaya Tribe

The southern town of Vabagong

Bagong means mountains in the local area

Here the rivers are crisscrossed and the mountains are continuous. Vabagong is located on a flat ground in the middle of the mountains, with a radius of less than a hundred miles.

Hearing that someone came to take over him, the original local official was a little ecstatic. He seemed to be afraid that Aiwa would change his mind to stay here after he came here in person, so he quickly packed his luggage and set off to leave this ghost place where he had been in charge for five years.

You know, in these five years, he has hardly lived a day of peace

Two times because he reported to the queen and asked to send troops to attack the Tandaya tribe, the queen sent an incompetent person like Federer, which made the Tandaya tribe revenge more. If it weren't for the protection of the strong city wall, his family would have been dealt with by Tandaya.

Aiwa and a few soldiers came to the city wall and looked towards the Tandaya tribe in the south.

Under the rays of bloody sunset, dust rose from the sky. In the dust, a group of people were slowly moving southwards.

Several servants were left by the old generals, and they were very familiar with the situation in this area. In order to repay Aiwa's favor, the old general specially selected several right-hand assistants to give him. Aiwa did not refuse and came to this unfamiliar place. Such a manpower was very necessary.

Tandaya stole the property of our people in the frontier again!

A servant sighed

Aiwa can be seen by the naked eye alone. Most of the people riding on horses are women, and their agile figures can be clearly distinguished in the sunset.

Don't we have cavalry, too?

Aiwa turned his head and asked the servant beside him

But they are nomadic tribes, living on horseback every day, very fierce. The so-called cavalrymen are just riding horses during training, and they are treated as a kind of fun. How can they compare to them?

The servant said

These servants had great expectations for their former chiefs, but after several attacks, Tandaya became more severe. The cruel revenge made the people on the frontiers of the Haas Empire even more miserable.

Therefore, I don’t have any illusions about Aiwa, the so-called general, after the door. I hope he will no longer cause any trouble and live a stable life

Do our cavalry often train?

Aiwa's eyes kept staring at the backs of the victors in the distance. Although they did not have eyes behind them, Aiwa could see from their leisurely figure that their mockery and contempt for the defenders of the Haas Empire.

Anger arose in Aiwa's chest

In which direction does Tanda Gals usually attack?

Aiwa's eyes moved away from the backs of the Tandaya men and turned to the surrounding mountains. I saw the valleys between these rolling mountains. Aiwa concluded that Tandaya must have flown in from these valleys.

Every valley may be their attack route. We have limited defense and cannot defend every pass. Moreover, our combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the enemy. Although most of them are women, their combat effectiveness is not inferior to men at all.

The attendant seemed to be reminding Aiwa: it is safest to stay in the city.

If you believe in your cavalry too much, you may even give your life to you

You mean, we can only let Tandaya plunder?

Aiwa's servant heard the implicit meaning in his tone

His sharp eyes were staring at the servant beside him tightly

Back to the head, I mean, if Tanda Yamen does not harass us, the existing army alone may not be able to do it.

The attendant quickly explained

So do you have any good solutions?

Aiva then asked, in fact, he didn't expect this servant to have any good solutions, otherwise, the former general should have adopted his suggestion and became famous in the Haas Empire.

No

The servant probably realized that he had said too much, so he quickly stopped and retreated to the back

If I pass the order, no one is allowed to act rashly within a month and train troops well. In a month, I will hold a big competition, and the winner will be rewarded!

A grand plan is brewing in Aiwa's chest

In this border town, a unit of two thousand people is stationed, of which infantry accounts for one third and cavalry one third

A considerable number of soldiers made mistakes and were exiled here.

In the eyes of ordinary people, these soldiers are just criminals, so the superiors here never regard them as human beings. It is necessary to charge in war, but there is never any reward.

Therefore, when the attendant heard that Aiwa was going to reward the winner, he really couldn't believe what his ears heard

But from Aiwa's tone of speaking, he could feel that this is a man who keeps his word!

The contempt for him just now gradually stopped

Aiwa has made many scarecrows, used as imaginary enemies for soldiers to train

The cavalry trained twice a day, allowing experienced soldiers or commanders to be coaches, once during the day and once at night. Since Aiwa has promised first, the soldiers not only worked very hard in collective training, but many soldiers also stepped up their training while others were resting, in order to make their debut in the competition.

While the soldiers were stepping up their training, Aiwa often brought some people to various mountain passes to inspect the situation

Within a week, he had already known the terrain of the mountain pass around Vabagong, especially the southern pass near Tandaya.

A week later, Aiwa brought half of the infantry to various mountain passes and made various strange things with trees, rocks.

The soldiers didn't understand, thinking that the new chief was a child who had not grown up and was just playful, but because Aiwa was a decisive person, no one dared to disobey his orders.

Just as the soldiers were conducting various trainings every day within the walls of Vabagong, the Tanda Yamen plundered the people on the border of the Haas Empire several times. The people on the frontier could only rely on civil self-defense organizations to fight against the Tanda Yamen, but the Tanda Yamen robbed them and ran away, and they had no choice but to do anything.

The reason why Tandaya only robs things and never hurts people is their own reason. They have strict discipline. In the process of robbing, no one is allowed to hurt the lives of the Vabagong people unless they have to be.

Therefore, in the past plunders, there were basically no casualties in Vabagong.

This is also the reason why the Haas Empire has not sent troops to attack Tandaya for a long time

After more than half a month of training, many officers and soldiers consciously improved their skills and their hands became itchy. The former commander was blamed by the queen for fear of causing casualties in soldiers, so he did not dare to send troops easily. In the long run, the soldiers' combat effectiveness will decline.

After Aiwa became the commander, the initial training did make them suffer. The soldiers had cursed Aiwa in their hearts.

But gradually, when they felt that their combat effectiveness had improved greatly, they admired the new commander again.

As his confidence in Aiwa increased greatly, an officer wanted to make a contribution in front of Aiwa, so a centurion named Samo took a team of men to rob a stronghold of Tandaya.

However, on the way back to the city, they were ambushed by Tandaya. After Aiwa led his troops to rescue, most of the casualties were rescued.

Aiwa had an order before, but without his order, no one was allowed to act rashly. The offenders were severely punished.

This officer named Samo thought he took the initiative to make a contribution, but he didn't expect that he was beaten by Aiwa's stick and was beaten to pieces.

From then on, the discipline in the army became more strict, and no one dared to take Aiwa's order as a joke

One month of training has ended, and the scheduled game time has come

Aiwa watched the battle himself

The main competition events are cavalry, cavalry, assassination, etc. Infantry is mainly compared with swordsmanship and gunsmanship. Assassination of long spears is very useful in battles and has become the main competition events of infantry.

Especially in riding and shooting, a large number of experts who can pass through the sun for hundreds of steps have emerged.

Aiwa asked the servants around him: Have you made any progress compared to their previous skills?

The answer is: It’s very different! It can’t be said in the same way!

If this army now fights against the Tandaya again, what is the chance of winning?

Aiwa asked proudly

If we use our current military strength to attack Tandaya, we will definitely be invincible!

The attendant was definitely not talking nonsense, but was shocked by the competition scenes seen in front of him.

Those soldiers are more capable than the other. If they rely on their current combat power to kill those Tanda Yamen, it will definitely be a small dish.

Aiwa sneered lightly. He had witnessed the combat power of Tanda Yaman with his own eyes. When the rescue was scattered, it was said that the other party was just an intermediate leader, but the ability to detour Lin Yayu had already opened Aiwa's eyes.

According to his judgment, the combat effectiveness of these soldiers is definitely not enough to compete with Tanda Yaman

Because he understood that Tanda Yaman would not kill until he had no choice but to kill, and would only start killing for life.

If the other party does not have the ability to be more skilled, he will not be able to do this.

In that battle, the soldiers of Vabagong tried their best and did not hurt a Tandaya man without any effort.

Aiwa knows this best in his heart

That's why he once again issued an order that he would never be allowed to fight without his order.

However, the garrison of Vabagong is no longer a piece of mud. If Tandaya sees it, he will definitely be shocked.

Aiva did not want to go to war immediately, but asked the Queen to send troops to reinforce. In the request, he also mentioned the letter of Chief Federer who knew the terrain here.

He must let the Federer boy make an ugly appearance in front of him and knock out his arrogance

A week later, Federer indeed brought two thousand men to the town of Vabagong under the order of the queen.

As the supreme commander of two thousand horses, Federer was a little arrogant in front of Aiva.

Aiwa, aren’t you very capable? Why, as soon as you arrived at Vabagong, you asked the Queen for help? The other party was just a few women, and they scared you into this way. Haha, you are really worthy of being the descendant of the general!

Federer is here to look down on anyone. He obviously suffered a defeat from Tandaya twice in a row, but he didn't feel ashamed at all in front of Aiwa, and he humiliated Aiwa.

After so long, he finally found someone like Aiwa, and finally saved some face, so he would not miss this opportunity.

Major Federer, I am all counting on you. I am harassed by Tandas here every day, especially when I hear their soldiers clamoring to cook my good friend Federer, I am even more angry. They are too arrogant, so I specially asked the Queen to send you to give Tandas a good look!

Iva knew that people like Federer could not resist the excitement. He replaced his hatred for Federer with Tanda's words, which stimulated Federer.

Just as I finished speaking, I saw Federer's face turned red

Aiwa, don’t worry, I don’t need any help from your soldiers. I must let Tandaya and other sex slaves lick your feet obediently, wait and see!

Federer said gritting his teeth

As the local magistrate, you came for Vabagong, why would I not help you? If the Queen knew that I was standing by and watching, wouldn’t I be punished?

Aiva wanted Federer to refuse his help, and then he would be good at his jokes and deliberately provoke him.

Don't interfere in this matter, I'm just fine. Of course, if I want to give some credit, you can go out of the city to greet me after I catch the enemy's head. It's not that I, Federer, don't believe in your soldiers. They play women and play cards. If you want to fight, it's better to stay in the city safer.

Federer looked at Aiva very contemptuously and said

According to Aiwa, Tandaya has unwritten rules. Every time he comes out to plunder property, he never kills people, but if someone dares to attack them on them, he will start a killing act.

It is also for this reason that half a month ago, Aiwa's subordinates violated the order and were retaliated by Tanda Yaman, with most of them being killed or injured.

Federer was also cruelly retaliated by them for coming to Vabagon's voluntary attack on the Tandaya camp and suffered heavy losses.

After all, Federer is the prime minister's son. He can't afford to lose this face, so he feels angry and wants to find an opportunity to take revenge on Tandaya. But he doesn't know where his weakness is, he only knows how to take revenge. Once he receives the queen's order, he comes happily.

And all this was long before Aiwa expected

Federer came to Vabagon for two days to rest. Reconnaissance personnel came back to report that the Tandaya was plundering their eastern regions, and there were almost no guards on their garrison.

Federer was very excited, but he did not tell Aiwa the news. He wanted to take the credit alone and invite her to reward him.

Keaiwa had sent someone to inquire about this news, but he knew better that Tandaya acted quickly and never spent the night in the plundering area. They would return to the base as quickly as possible to protect their homes.

When Federer got up early in the morning and set off with his troops, Aiva also led his people to stand on the top of the city to see him off.

Federer is a must-win attitude

Major Federer, I will hold a celebration banquet for you when I come back!

Aiwa stood above the city and said loudly

Federer smiled and rode away, and the dust rose up behind him

The army left the valley and marched towards the residence of Tandaya

Along the way, reconnaissance personnel kept coming back to report the movements of Tanda Yaman, saying that they did not see a large number of people coming out, and there were no Tanda Yaman who went out to plunder.

Federer was secretly happy and thought: This time, we must destroy the old nest of Tandaya, give them a heavy blow, and let out the anger in our hearts!'The team is getting closer and closer to Tandaya's residence, but there is still no movement. Federer's confidence has increased greatly because he is afraid that Tandaya who is left behind will find his own troops. When he is still two miles away from Tandaya's residence, Federer, who is eager to win, ordered and launched a fierce charge and killed the sky.

But just when they left the Tandaya residence less than a few hundred meters, several teams of Tandaya cavalry suddenly came out from all directions. Tandaya did not have a formal professional army, but they were all soldiers, and even teenage children could participate in the war, and they all took one as ten.

Federer's army, who was already afraid of being killed by Tandaya, was just brave on the surface. Once he saw Tandaya killing from all directions, he immediately became defeated.

Federer shouted loudly, using a horse whip and a sword to drive the soldiers forward, but the soldiers quickly ran away from Federer's side, and it would be useless if he shouted to his throat.

Seeing his two thousand troops being broken into pieces by the brave and good at fighting Tanda, Federer had to lead several followers to fight Tandada.

A girl in Tanda's costume rushed over, holding a long sword in her hand and stabbed Federer in school-level officer uniform; Federer's fighting spirit was inferior to the girl's sword energy, and the sword in his hand was shocked. Federer hurriedly pulled out a short sword from his waist to meet the enemy, but how could he be able to defeat the long sword in the girl's hand

The girl was agile and handsome, and was whirling across the horse's back. She cut Federer's reins with her sword.

Federer lost his balance for a moment and rolled down from the horse's back

His guards were even more able to fight against the opponent's handsome girls, and fled in scattered ways. Before Federer got up, he was tied up by the uniforms of several Tanda girls.

The self-righteous Federer became the captive of Tandaya!

Federer's soldiers were soon driven back to the city of Vabagon by Tandaya, but Aiva did not come forward to greet them, but asked the soldiers guarding the city to let them in and gather in a place to reorganize them.

dusk

Less than a few dozen meters to the right of the camp at Tandaya station, there is a small enclosure surrounded by a fence.

Federer was stripped of only a pair of pants and tied to a wooden stake. Although he was not beaten, the cold wind alone was enough to make him suffer.

Catherly, this time I made my first contribution. Last time he led people to attack our station. This time, I must let him taste our awesomeness!

A girl with curly blonde hair tied back into a ponytail, said to a mature woman who looked like a leader

The joy of victory made the little girl's face flushed and looked even more youthful.

Wuya, then this Federer will be handed over to you, and you can deal with it. If you want him to lick your feet at night, this little white face should be good

After glanced at Federer, Catherine turned to the girl who seemed thin and was just leaning on her armor to support her warrior.

Wuya walked to Federer with a whip in her hand. She turned the whip in her hand upside down and pushed it between Federer's ribs with her hand and twisted it hard. Federer immediately screamed, and saw that his ribs were twisted into a sagging inward by Wuya's horse whip.

When Wuya's horse whip was pulled out, Federer's ribs immediately rolled out!

Sweat was also oozing from his face.

Shit! I thought I was a hero, I couldn’t stand such a little pain!

Wu Ya threw the horse whip in her hand casually, and the horse whip immediately left a bright red mark on Federer's face.

You guys watch him well, don’t let this kid run away, let him taste the coolness of Tandaya at night!

After saying that, Wu Ya turned around and left with her entourage.

After sunset, night covered the entire sky above Tandaya, and even the camp tents were covered by darkness, so they could only vaguely identify their outlines.

With the cover of the night, the four elite soldiers sent by Aiwa quietly approached the yard where Federer was tied up.

Tandaya's soldiers stood in groups of three or three around the paddock. After all, Federer was considered the military leader of the Haas Empire. Although he was only a school-level officer, he was the highest commander of the attack on Tandaya, so he was closely guarded.

But Tandaya was immersed in the joy of victory. Although his boss repeatedly stumbled on Níng, the soldiers guarding Federer still had opinions because they could not rest sufficiently after the war. They never thought that on the night when they caught Federer, someone would come to rescue him.

Two soldiers standing in front were shot to death by the infiltrated Vabagon elite soldiers with poison arrows and fell silently; the other two Vabagon elite soldiers continued to approach Federer

Just beside Federer, two Tandaya soldiers kept stomping their feet to keep warm. It was late autumn in Tandaya, and the night was even colder.

Federer was already trembling with cold. At the beginning, he could still rely on his own fighting spirit to resist the cold, but that was too limited after all. Soon his fighting spirit was exhausted, so he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

The two Tandaya soldiers holding spears seemed to hear something and suddenly turned around, but before they could see clearly what it was, they had already been poisoned to the throat.

The distance is too close, just the arrow penetrates the throat, which is enough to be fatal, not to mention that the poison of the arrow quickly erupts within a few seconds, causing them to die immediately

Federer, who was tied up in big flowers, had not figured out what was going on, and one of the elite soldiers cut the rope that bound him with a dagger.

Don't talk, follow us, we were sent by Aiwa to rescue the general!

The elite soldier whispered

When Federer heard that Eva sent someone to rescue him, he was very excited on the one hand, but on the other hand he was embarrassed and hated. If someone else had changed, he would definitely appreciate the relationship, but it was this damn Eva!

But in order to survive, he had to escape from the enclosure with two elite soldiers who rescued him.

At this time, he had completely forgotten the coldness of the night, and he didn't care about the thorns under his feet, and ran out of the fence.

There was a team of people waiting to respond in the distance

A soldier put on a coat for Federer and helped him on his horse

A team of people heading towards Vabagong in the darkness

The exhausted Federer almost fell asleep on the horse's back. If it weren't for the two elite soldiers around him, he would have fallen off the horse's back long ago.

The elite soldiers of Vabagon came directly to Eva's command center with the embarrassed Federer.

Aiwa sat upright in a chair, like a very majestic military general. Over the past month, the military management has not only trained his soldiers, but also trained himself. He has become more experienced in his face that looks childish.

Especially his eyes became sharper and sharper, and more confident

Federer didn't expect that he would be brought here. Isn't this obvious that he wants to make a fool of himself in front of his enemy, Aiwa?

When he saw Aiwa sitting in a chair, Federer, in a mess, immediately turned around and wanted to leave

Commander Federer, why are you in a hurry to go back? Could it be that you are so tired that you don’t have the strength to stay for five minutes, right?

Aiwa stood up from the chair, intending to let Federer sit on the chair to his right

Didn’t you just want to hear me? You love Wa Dazhi and Dayong and rescue me from the enemy camp. I, Federer, is very grateful. However, if you want to use this as a threat to me to agree, then you will be in vain!

Federer's nerves have been tense for a long time, and he had thought about this problem on the way.

Since Eva sent someone to save his life, he certainly had to be grateful, but he could not serve as an exchange for him to agree to marry his sister to Eva 0 Haha, Major Federer, you were wrong. I am now the supreme commander of Vabagon, a soldier of the Haas Empire at the same time as you, and you are trapped in the enemy camp. Of course, I have the obligation and responsibility to rescue you. I am serving the Queen, so how can I have the selfishness you said? If I was trapped in the enemy territory, would Major Federer not send someone to rescue you? So, in the matter of sending someone to save you, you can never care about it. This is for the public, not for the private. In my memory, it seems that Major Federer has no merit to let me take risks with our personal relationship?

Aiva said, staring at Federer's already pale face

There is another meaning in his words, that is, if he had not been loyal to the Queen, he would not have sent someone to save him

Federer's face turned blue

A flash of white

He was ashamed of defeat, but now he appeared in front of Aiwa in such a mess. He really wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into it.

Come on, why don’t you change Major Federer into a neat military uniform?

Aiwa shouted to the guards

A servant left immediately, and in less than a few minutes he brought a military uniform.

Major Federer, just wear it. There is no military uniform in my military camp that is specially equipped for majors like you, but at least it’s important not to freeze your body!

Every word of Eva's concern is like a sharp knife stabbing Federer

But at this time he could only endure Aiwa's humiliation, because even the clothing of such a first-class soldier was provided by Aiwa, and he could not refuse

Under the leadership of the soldiers, Federer followed into the locker room, completely abandoning the sense of humiliation, throwing away the coat on his body, and changing into the soldier's costume.

When Federer changed into a soldier and came out of the locker room, Aiva said humorously: No, it’s more appropriate for Major Federer to wear this soldier uniform!

His implication is that Federer is not worthy of being a commander at all, but only a little soldier

This is undoubtedly an insult to an always arrogant officer. Federer was speechless for a moment, his face turned blue and purple.

And Aiva continued: Although you were captured by the enemy this time, I think this may not be a bad thing. At least we rescue you from their noses. This is very important to the other party's confidence. However, after this lesson, Tanda Yasu will definitely be very angry. It is recommended that you do not have any military operations recently. If it falls into Tanda Yasu for the first time, it will not be so comfortable!

Aiva's seemingly kind warning and as if mocking Federer, it made the arrogant commander's eyes protrude.
