"It is possible not to eat food, but if you don't eat salt, you will become swollen and lose your energy over time, and eventually die of salt deficiency in your body. How is this possible?" Lu Bu's Tolidu's words asked.

Tollido immediately explained: "The Jiedu did not know that Evanke usually had half-herding and half-hunting. He spent most of his time hunting in the mountains and old forests in the northern North Sea, and he spent half a time nomadic on the grassland at the foot of the mountain, and rarely interacted with the world. Although people outside also regarded them as Dingling people, in fact, we Dingling people rarely traded with them. Therefore, they were actually isolated from the world and naturally could not obtain salt and food. However, they had abundant fish hunting resources. On weekdays, they collected and dug wild fruits and vegetables from the mountains and forests to satisfy their hunger. As for salt, as far as they knew, they relied on eating and drinking deer blood to replenish the salt needed by their bodies."

Lu Bu nodded and said, "So that's it. It seems that this method of not fighting the Quren's soldiers is not working." Lu Bu meditated for a while and said to Tolidu: "You should settle down in Beiming City first. Immediately meet with all the generals to discuss the Northern Expedition of Evank, and the Yakuk, Tungus, and Ewenk tribes and tribes that are also north of the North Sea. I hope this time, we can make a concerted effort to reach the Beiming Sea."

"The Sea of ​​Beiming!" Tolidu exclaimed after hearing this, and then he changed his tone and said, "Even if the small people who have lived in the North Sea for a long time have only heard of it, they only know that there is ice and snow all year round. The sun cannot be seen in winter, and the sun never sets in summer, but it is always only a height of one rod. I heard from the elders that there is at least three thousand miles away from the northernmost end of the North Sea. There is an endless annual frozen snowfield between them. What should the Jiedushi go to such a bitter and cold place?"

"Because this is the entrustment of King Liang!"

The meeting convened by Lu Bu quickly made a decision, and Toulidu sent an order to let the Dingling troops around the North Sea gather on the northwest coast of the North Sea. Through the vast North Sea, this task was unlikely to be completed in a short time, but with the support of the North Mansion Viking fleet, it would not be a problem to do this.

Lu Bu and Pang Tong followed with three thousand infantry and cavalry. In Beiming City, only Li Su and two thousand soldiers were left to guard Beiming City.

When they arrived at the northernmost end of the North Sea, Toulidu had completed Lu Bu's order, built a camp here, gathered nearly 10,000 war cavalry, and began to use Viking ships and the traditional large wheel carriages of the Dingling people to accumulate supplies. Lu Bu sent a large number of Liang army scouts every day, and Dingling Rangers were everywhere to investigate the movements of the Avenke people.

...

On the edge of the border between the grassland and the forest, several people wearing leather robes and fur hats rushed out. Their leather robes and fur hats were roughly made, looked dirty, and exuded the fishy smell of animals. At a glance, you can tell that it was a simple hand-processing product. Behind them were a few large gray dogs with huge bodies.

These big dogs grinned, and their brown and green eyes emitted fierce eyes from time to time. It turned out that they were not dogs, but domesticated wolves. These people were the Ivanks' reconnaissance troops.

A man suddenly found a black shadow sliding across the ground. He immediately looked into the sky with vigilance and saw a white-headed hunting falcon circling in the air. The man immediately took off the bow on his horse's back, pulled the hard bow full, and shot a strong arrow into the sky.

With a long eagle roar, the white-headed hunting falcon had fallen freely from the air. Scout Evank rode over and picked up his prey, but found that the falcon had a ring on its claws.

"Someone is nearby!" He exclaimed at the two companions next to him. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of arrows breaking through the air and the barking of dogs. A heavy arrow crossed the top of his head and shot at one of his companions. The heavy arrow penetrated his companions' body in the blink of an eye.

"How is that possible!" The scout Evank screamed in his heart. He didn't know what he saw in his eyes, because there was a fine iron armor hidden under the leather robe he was with, and it was so easily penetrated by arrows.

Immediately afterwards, several more dogs rushed out, and the taming wolf of the Evank people immediately met, and the two sides immediately bit each other. The gray wolf's mouths were fierce, but the mountain-chasing dogs that Liang Jun scouted fought tenaciously. After biting, no matter how hard the other party struggled to fight back, they would never let go.

A gray wolf's forelimb was bitten by a mountain dog. It continuously used its sharp teeth to bite the other person's neck and waist, and dripping the mountain dog's bloody biting, but it still did not let its forelimbs get out of the other person's mouth. In the end, the mountain dog completely cut off, and the gray wolf took back the bitten forelimb, clamped its tail, and limped away.

The Liang army scouts who rushed out also fought with these Evanks, and the weapons collided violently. Then there was a wailing sound of being hit by the knife. At the end of the battle, only two Liang army scouts survived, and one Evank escaped. But there was also a dying Evank lying on the ground.

The two Liang army scouts struggled to put the living on the horse's back and brought it back to a temporary stronghold. The Liang army scouts at this stronghold used some means and quickly made the Evank man say what Liang army wanted.

Liang Jun finally discovered a camp with Ivanke on the grassland, and the information immediately reported to Liang Jun's main camp at the northern end of the North Sea in the form of a fast horse relay.

Lu Bu led a light cavalry battalion, a heavy cavalry battalion and the three thousand Dingling war cavalry immediately dispatched and rushed towards the target. Lu Bu decided to launch a surprise attack on the Ivanks at the fastest speed, so all the cavalry were used.

Lu Bu saw the tents scattered on the grassland from afar. It must be the camp of the Evanks. He raised his arms and waved them into the air a few times. The cavalry immediately whipped their horses and rushed towards the target faster. But what surprised Lu Bu was that there was no response in the camp. After looking closely, there was no one in it.

Lu Bu murmured in his heart: "Is there a fraud?" But Lu Bu quickly dispelled this doubt. He is now carrying 4,000 troops. Even if there is a fraud, it is a matter of soldiers coming to block the water and flooding the soil.

Four thousand cavalry rushed into the camp quickly, and the cavalry drove their horses back and forth in the camp, lifting the curtains of the tent with long spears and knives. Only then did they find that there were no people, no livestock, and no large carts and supplies in the camp. This was completely an empty camp.

Lu Bu immediately ordered loudly: "The whole army is on guard against the enemy's ambush." ​​The cavalry formations of the cavalry immediately changed into defensive formations, but after waiting for a long time, no ambushed enemy troops were found.

At this time, several Dingling men came over with a man wearing a torn leather jacket and an old leather hat. One of them reported, "You reported to the Jiedu, we have caught a living!"

Lu Bu asked the living slowly, "Say, where are your people going now?"
