To this day, the Hu tribe still maintains their nomadic habits and style. They can pack up their tents and set out, and they can set up camp on the spot when they find a suitable place to stay. Although their settlements do not have city walls as barriers, they are not as good as brick and tile houses.
It was stable but had strong and convenient mobility. This was one of the important factors why the Central Plains dynasty was mainly on the defensive against the northern nomads.
If you look for him, there will be no trace in the vast earth; if he attacks you, it will be a divine weapon descending from the sky that is hard to guard against.
Therefore, those warriors who can in turn conquer the nomads can leave the title of peerless generals in history.
…………
The location where Asier is currently camping is just outside the west side where the small tribes gather. He asked Brother Xing to send someone to deliver the news of the banquet. He could arrive within ten days at the earliest.
And Azir wants to let the most reliable warriors of the Ule tribe conduct the last rehearsal within these ten days.
If you ask the question "Is twenty people enough?", then I can only answer you that it is not enough.
But there is no other way. The experience Asier heard from He Nan is - if you want to do something secretly, the fewer people involved, the better. Every more person, the better.
There will be one more possibility of leaks, so sometimes fifty people are really not as efficient as five people.
And the most terrible thing is that sometimes the secrets may not be revealed through a mouth, but an expression, a look, or an action can make people tell that something is wrong. To use Sheng Guo's words to describe it, "When something goes wrong, something will happen."
There is a demon”.
In short, while Asier was busy preparing for the banquet, the ten days passed in such a hurry, and on the "right day", Asier was already ready to welcome all the distinguished guests.
.
"Brother Asier, I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon!" A majestic and muscular man jumped off the horse. He looked more mature than Asier, but he was not a few years older - this was Agu
A Yin, the son of Noyan from Labu, had a similar temperament with Asir and hit it off immediately. His father was ill and could not attend the banquet, so he asked A Yin to take his place. "Who was the first person I arrived?"
Asier stepped forward and hugged Ah Yin: "You arrived early, the fifth one. Brother Ah Yin, please go to the tent and rest for a while!"
According to the different distances between each tribe, Asir planned a route for sending people to deliver the message. In his imagination, everyone would arrive from the evening of the ninth day to the afternoon of the tenth day, and the Agula tribe was 30 kilometers away from here.
The furthest one, Ah Yin's speed shows how much he values himself.
Shortly after Ah Yin entered the tent, chiefs from other tribes also arrived one after another, some of whom were traveling together due to the overlap of routes. Before the sky completely darkened, the representatives of the fourteen tribes finally gathered at Asir.
Within the golden tent, a total of fifteen small tables were arranged in a circle along the tent, and Asier, as the owner, naturally sat in the center, facing the door.
In fact, the relationship between these fourteen tribes is not so good that they can sit at the same table to eat. Especially some of the more powerful tribes often fight for the status of the fourth Dahu tribe.
At this moment, sitting across from each other and seeing the familiar but annoying face of the other person, it was difficult not to glare - but for the sake of the master Asier, he didn't have an immediate attack.
For these relatively rough and heroic prairie men, Asir, who has been deeply influenced by the culture of the prosperous country, does have a strange charm in him. Although it is not exaggerated to the point of making people "worship at first sight", it does not look like it.
The monk's face looks at the Buddha's face. If the person sitting here today is Noyan Suhe, these people will also come to attend the appointment.
In fact, after the split of the Khanate, the Wuleh Tribe also had major or minor conflicts with all the tribes here. There were wars and frictions, and the reason why they can accept Asir's plan with a relatively peaceful attitude today is
On the one hand, the invitation was due to the Wu Le tribe's rising strength, and on the other hand, it was because I thought Asier was a good person.
The "nice person" Asir is indeed extraordinary. When he returned to his homeland from Shengguo, he brought back a lot of Shengguo's specialties as gifts, and he was fully prepared for this trip - he made preparations according to the promises of each tribe.
He gave corresponding gifts according to Yan's preferences, which won the favor of these people. And when everything was ready today, Asir also got straight to the point: "Uncles, uncles, and eldest brothers, since you have given me face,
Then I, Asier, won’t give in… The reason for inviting you all today is actually because I have two things to ask for your help with.”
In fact, this sentence is not surprising. The youngest ones here are all twenty-five or six years old. Regardless of the size of their territory, they are all leaders of one department. Of course, they know that Asir is so attentive and there is a reason for it.
But they all made the same choice - no matter what Asier wanted to do, it didn't hurt to listen first, and if possible, it wouldn't be too late to sell him a favor.
Although some thoughtful people expected that Asier would do something earth-shattering by inviting the leaders of the fourteen tribes together at once, they also considered other factors - Asier's feelings for himself
I respect you very much. If you stay behind closed doors, you will look very disrespectful to others, and may even incur retaliation from the Wu Le tribe.
The most important thing is that as a social animal, "being gregarious" is almost an instinct - if thirteen people go and you don't go, what if they gang up to deal with you? Even if they don't want to deal with you, they still
Isolation is also inevitable. To take a step back, in the end, you won’t have a share in sharing the benefits.
"Even if I don't agree, he won't kill me in front of so many people, right?" I can't say that it's all, but at least when most people think about whether to agree to go to the banquet, the last step is very similar.
, a rhetorical question to myself.
Coincidentally, Asier, who invited them, had also thought about a similar problem, but here the host and guest changed places - if there are people who don't agree, should they do it in front of so many people?
How about killing him with face?
After Asir bluntly revealed his purpose, everyone was silent for a moment, but then Dai Qin, the oldest and more powerful leader of the Baoyan Batu tribe, acted as a representative and said: "My nephew, but
It's okay." The rest of the people also nodded.
"As you all know, I, Asier, have just returned from the Central Plains..." Even Asier himself can't remember how many times he has said this opening sentence. Anyway, these fourteen people have heard it at least once: "And father
The reason for calling me back is that he wants to choose the successor of Noyen of Ulebu from among the three of us brothers."
As Asier said, everyone was also thinking about it. In fact, this request was not unexpected. The residents of nomadic tribes are highly mobile, and it is common for members of several friendly tribes to live together. Su
It is no secret that He wants to choose a successor from his three adult sons. Many people have even heard of the rumor that Delhei and Dalai conquered the Olesu tribe from the west.
"Although I, Asier, have this confidence, because I have just returned to the Ule tribe, it is difficult to compete with my brothers in terms of power, so I want to get everyone's support. I invite everyone here to get a clear attitude -
If there are any conditions, we can discuss it!" Nuoyan's son looked quite sincere, and after finishing speaking, he toasted everyone with a glass of wine.
As expected, Ah Yin was the first to jump out to support Asier, but unlike Ah Yin who stood firm, most people did not express their attitude immediately - because this matter was not about drinking two drinks and giving a few gifts.
It can be settled.
On a small scale, this is a family matter, and as outsiders they cannot interfere; on a larger scale, this is the selection of the heir to the biggest Hu Bu Nuoyan, and it can affect the whole body, and it may affect the entire family.
Hu Bu's future is uncertain.
If the heir to the largest Hu tribe is a barbaric and brutal killer, the cattle, sheep, snakes, and rats on the entire grassland will have no peace; and if he is a fool, it will definitely cause the decline of the Wule tribe, and it will also lead to the situation.
Variety.
Furthermore, they not only know Asier, but they also know Delhei and Ta Lai. Today you agreed to Asier's request. What if the other two people ask you to do the same tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?
And in the end, what everyone cares most about is their own interests - should they choose someone to support, or should they just ignore the matter and ignore it? Azir is indeed a seemingly very kind person, and helping him at this time is the best option.
It is equivalent to providing help in times of need, and he will definitely reap considerable rewards in the future; but on the other hand, he is indeed the weakest one. Even if he helps him, he may not be able to win. So whether Delhei or Ta Lai who became Noyan
Will he take revenge on himself?
As I said, a person's life comes from his own choices, and everyone's choices will intersect and affect the future. Here are fourteen of the most powerful people on the grassland, so what will happen to their choices?
What kind of shocking storm will happen?
Azir also saw everyone's hesitation, so he added: "If you have any concerns, you may wish to tell them one by one. As long as I can answer them, I will tell you everything."
The old man Dai Qin is a very knowledgeable person in the city, and his style is to get as much information as possible before making a decision, especially to find out from the details information that was not intended to be exposed, so he asked tentatively: "
Nephew, does Noyan Suhe know that you came to us for help?"
"Father, he has no objection." Asier told a lie that was not too big or too small. Su He did agree with Asier's strategy, but Asier did not reveal all the details of his plan.
Dai Qin's hand on the table was slightly clenched, and his long eyebrows were trembling slightly. He and Su He were old acquaintances, and in his impression, Su He was not someone who would do such a thing.
Lao Daiqin was still making plans here, and Mo Zhigen from the Halbala tribe also asked: "If one day we really go to war with your elder brother, how many people do you think it will take to defeat him? How many soldiers and horses do you have?" Hal
The totem of the Bala tribe is a black tiger. This is a very warlike tribe that has always admired the strong. Morigen has always admired strong generals like Delehei, so he spoke to Asier with a somewhat critical tone.
the meaning of.
Of course Azir didn't agree with him, and he didn't want outsiders to think that their brothers were jealous: "I never thought that my hands would be stained with my brother's blood."
"Then what help do you want to ask us to give you?" Mo Rigen asked again.
"Of course I need more soldiers, but that's not the reason for starting a war, it's just to ensure victory." Asir answered the next question by the way: "If I become Noyan of Wule, I will definitely be a good person.
More in return for all those who have helped me.”
"For example?"
"For example... the lands of Ersu and Gawler."
