Bang!
The dull roar suddenly broke the tranquility of the grassland.
The left eye of a bison that was eating grass on the river bank suddenly burst into bright blood. Its huge body suddenly lost its balance and fell heavily to the ground.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Before the other bison could wake up, the same roaring sound came one after another.
One by one, the bison were either killed on the spot, or were wounded and running wild in pain. The entire herd fell into complete chaos.
However, the hunters rode fast horses and approached from different directions. Fireguns emitted Tuan Tuan white smoke and shot deadly pills, killing all the surviving bison.
These bison are a specialty of West Sea Great Grassland. They are huge and strong. An adult bull can even weigh more than 2,000 kilograms. Its Mercedes-Benz collision force plus a pair of sharp horns will make even a black bear run away when it encounters them.
Since bison live in groups and are very strong individually, only a few smart and capable hunters dare to hunt them. If they are not careful, they may lose their lives.
However, in front of the hunting team equipped with heavy fire guns, this group of local bullies on the grassland became lambs to be slaughtered!
They whined and fell into a pool of blood. Only a few cows and calves were deliberately ignored by the hunters and fled into the distance in terror.
"Wan Sheng!"
Cheers of victory sounded among the hunters.
Wang Chen smiled slightly and threw the empty long gun in his hand to the bodyguard beside him.
In order to welcome and accommodate the incoming refugee army, West Sea prefecture city, which had just calmed down, tightened its strings again and began to operate at extraordinary speed and efficiency.
On the one hand, Wang Chen sent caravans to purchase livestock and food from herdsmen in various places. On the other hand, it organized hunting teams to hunt wild animals such as bison and wild sheep on West Sea Great Grassland.
There are a huge number of bison on the grassland, and a bison is full of treasures. Its fur can be used to make fur clothes, and its tendons can be used to make bowstrings. Not to mention beef, it is a very nutritious food.
Including cow horns, cow bones, and cow hooves are more useful, and even cow dung can be used to fertilize fields.
In order to obtain these precious resources as soon as possible, Wang Chen personally led the hunting team deep into the grassland to hunt the bison herds.
Accompanied by loud whistles, the hunters dismounted one after another, pulled out the daggers they carried and began to process the trophies.
Materials such as cowhide, beef, and beef bones were quickly broken down, and the blood was wiped off, then smeared with salt and minced herbs, and finally placed on different carriages.
These trophies will be sent to the outskirts of West Sea prefecture city as quickly as possible, cooked before the meat spoils, chopped into pieces, added with flour, ghee and dried wild vegetables, then kneaded into balls and smoked to dry.
Made into fist-sized rations.
Only two regiments of this kind of military ration are needed to give an adult the strength to walk all day and all night!
A single bison can save hundreds of refugees from starvation.
In fact, prairie bison are not easy to deal with. Their thick fur can resist the damage of bows and arrows, and they are extremely powerful. When they go crazy, they are very scary.
However, faced with the bombardment of heavy firecrackers, they could only be reduced to food.
Just to prevent the bison from becoming extinct, Wang Chen specifically ordered some cows and calves to be let go so that they could have a chance to reproduce and be used for future use.
At this moment, a loud eagle cry came from the sky.
Wang Chen looked up and saw a black shadow swooping down towards him like lightning.
He raised his arm, and a Hawk Falcon landed steadily on it.
Wang Chen took off the bamboo tube tied to the eagle's leg, crushed the beeswax on the top, and poured out a roll of silk paper.
He unfolded it and looked at it, his expression moved slightly.
After thinking for a while, Wang Chen took out a pen and paper and replied to the letter, then stuffed it back into the bamboo tube and sealed it before returning it to the eagle's legs.
The guard on the side cut two pieces of fresh beef and fed it to Hawk Falcon. After eating, Hawk Falcon chirped twice with satisfaction, then spread its wings and soared into the sky.
"Let's go!"
Wang Chen said in a deep voice, "Follow me to greet the guests!"
He patted Yellow Dappled Horse underneath him, and the latter immediately spread its hooves and rushed forward.
The whistle sounded, and dozens of elite riders followed closely behind.
With these personal guards, Wang Chen headed north, Mercedes-Benz flying on the vast prairie.
At noon the next day, he and a group of personal guards arrived at the northern border of West Sea Prefecture.
To the north of West Sea Prefecture is Jichuan Prefecture. Although this county is only half the area of West Sea Prefecture, it is much richer than the former, and its population is several times larger. It is also one of the few counties that chooses to be loyal to Emperor Yuanjing.
However, Jichuan Prefecture did not take any hostile actions against West Sea Prefecture who had raised the "anti-flag" and even allowed refugees to enter West Sea Great Grassland through their own territory.
Of course, this may not be a good intention. After all, Jichuan Prefecture does not have the ability to feed so many refugees, so he is happy to throw this big burden to the Qingyun master.
Wang Chen received the flying eagle message from Qin Qingxuan yesterday and learned that the first batch of refugees was about to arrive at the border between the two counties, so he rushed over with his personal guards to meet them.
This group of refugees is of great significance to the West Sea and Hanhai Commandery counties, so Wang Chen took action personally.
"Lord Grand Tutor, this is Wild Mountain Slope."
One of the guards compared the map and said, "Going past is the Jichuan Prefecture area. Would you like me to take someone there to investigate?"
"That's fine."
Wang Chen said, "Take two people over to take a look and pay attention to safety."
Wang Chen himself and other guards camped on this gentle and open slope, waiting for the arrival of the refugees.
He had previously sent someone to notify West Sea prefecture city to immediately mobilize personnel and materials.
Wang Chen observed the surrounding environment and terrain, and felt that it was very suitable to build a temporary camp here to handle the refugee team.
His biggest problem now is that he lacks a group of talents who can take charge of their own affairs. Otherwise, many things do not need to be done personally and can be completed by his subordinates.
In the final analysis, Princess Qingyun's appeal is too weak.
If you want to take over the whole world, it's obviously not possible to rely solely on Wang Chen.
Therefore, he hopes that accepting the refugees this time will bring him more talents.
Until dusk at sunset, a team appeared on the plain in the distance, and the number continued to expand.
The refugees are coming!
"So many people!"
The guards standing on Wild Mountain Slope with Wang Chen were dumbfounded.
Because the number of refugees arriving in the first batch far exceeded their imagination!
The scale of this refugee team is very large. The long team seems to have no end in sight. Most of them are walking forward, surrounded by a large number of carriages, and the mountains and plains are covered with darkness.
From a distance, it brings heavy pressure to everyone.
Immediately afterwards, several Knight rushed out of the refugee team and quickly rushed in the direction of Wang Chen.
The personal guards who went to Jichuan Prefecture to investigate first came back.
And Qin Qingxuan is following them! ——
The first update is sent.
