On the same day, Bo Shi took the vanguard of the Huyi Army, which had just arrived in Chonghua, with more than 2,000 cavalry, marched north and arrived at the place where Chen Jiao camped.
Naturally, Chen Jiao and Bo Shi were very tight-lipped and did not show any intention of "talking" with the Xiongnu.
Otherwise, Bo Shi is worried that the rangers will tear him apart!
As soon as Bo Shi arrived, the Huns envoy rushed over immediately.
"My lord Tu She is willing to fulfill your country's wish!" As soon as the envoy met, he immediately told his master's reply and promise: "As long as the Emperor of the Han Dynasty can make my lord Tu She a Chanyu, then my lord Tu She will be She is willing to respect the Emperor of Han as the Chanyu of Heaven!"
When Bo Shi and Chen Jiao heard this, they were both very satisfied.
But they are also very doubtful.
Is the Righteous King of the Huns such a coward?
Neither Bo Shi nor Chen Jiao wanted to believe it.
Therefore, out of caution, Chen Jiao said: "Then please write a memorial letter first, and then send 50,000 cattle and horses..."
Words can be false, but words written in black and white and real animals cannot be false!
When the envoy heard this, not only did he not hesitate or hesitate as Chen Jiao and Bo Shi feared, but he looked very happy.
Just listen to him say: "My lord Tushe has prepared the musical instruments and 200,000 livestock!"
"But..." The envoy suddenly changed the topic and said: "I want you to know that my lord Tushe is sincerely willing to have good relations with the Han. However, there are also die-hard Shan Yuting in the tribe. I The Lord is worried that this generation may interfere with it, so please be considerate of your country..."
He continued calmly: "Perhaps your country can cut off these die-hard loyalists to Shan Yuting for my lord!"
This time, Hujie invaded the east and threatened a large number of tribes.
The number of cavalry from these tribes is even greater than that of the Hujie cavalry.
Normally, this is no problem.
On the grassland, it is common for one master to command thousands of tribes.
But in the current environment, it would be too fatal for the Hujie people.
In case there are die-hard loyalists to Shan Yuting among these tribes, or they simply want to replace the Hujie people and become the ones negotiating with the Han Dynasty.
So what should we do?
As standard nomads, the Hujie people know very well what the people who lead the bow will do when they encounter someone they cannot defeat.
Of course, kneel down, put your forehead to the ground, and give everything you have!
On the grassland, all tribes have the talent to change camps anytime and anywhere.
For the people who lead the bow, it is shameful to surrender and submit to the strong.
On the contrary, it is an honor.
Naturally, the Hujie people were very afraid. These intimidated miscellaneous people turned back, or simply replaced Hujie and became the ones negotiating with the Han Dynasty.
This is so terrible!
Therefore, the Hujie people decided to let these coerced scum die!
As long as they are all dead.
So, it doesn't matter whether they don't want to rebel, whether they want to be loyal dogs to Shan Yuting, or whether they are ambitious and want to replace Hu Jie.
Nothing matters anymore.
It is impossible for dead people to compete with living people.
Only by staying alive can the tribe continue and have a future.
As for the luxuries of loyalty and justice, they simply do not exist for the people who lead the bow.
Even Liejiaomi, the younger brother who was raised, nurtured and cultivated by the Huns themselves, could bite the Huns back. In the eyes of the Huns, no one in this world can trust them except themselves.
As for the Hujie people specifically, all the tribes that were threatened were labeled as dangerous goods.
Naturally, if his master reaches an agreement with the Han Dynasty people.
Then let those scumbags die.
It seems that this logic is a bit weird, but in fact, this is the subconscious way of the people who lead the bow or the nomads.
Just like herding or hunting, you must drive away or kill all possible competitors before doing it.
Both Bo Shi and Chen Jiao obviously couldn't keep up with Hu Jie Ren's thinking.
After all, there is a huge cultural gap between Han and Hungarians.
Hujie is even more alien to the Xiongnu.
It is natural that our thinking is not on the same level.
However, Chen Jiao and Bo Shi still understood at least one thing: Is the Xiongnu Youxian King planning to betray his teammates?
"The people of Yi and Di are all of the same kind!" Bo Shi thought in his heart, thinking that during the Battle of Mayi, didn't Yin Zhixie sell Aries?
The Aries King was even tricked to his death!
You must know that if they had not fallen into Yin Zhixie's pit, King Aries and his tribe would have had a certain possibility of escaping from the encirclement of the Han army.
But Yin Zhixie betrayed his teammates without hesitation for his own sake.
Now, the new generation of Xiongnu Youxian King has begun to betray his teammates after being besieged!
Is this a Huns tradition?
Once surrounded, betray your teammates.
but……
Chen Jiao and Bo Shi looked at each other and saw happiness in each other's eyes.
Huns sell teammates?
This is so great!
How can Bo Shizhengchou explain to the rangers?
If there is a chance, let the rangers enjoy their military exploits for a while before announcing the surrender of the Huns.
Then the rangers won't have too many complaints.
Thinking of this, Bo Shi asked tentatively: "How many die-hard followers are there in Shan Yuting?"
"About 20,000..." The messenger lowered his head and replied sheepishly.
That's right, Hujie really wants to sell out everyone he threatens.
Except for their own headquarters, everyone else must be abandoned.
This is not only because they are afraid of rebellion, but also because the property of a dead person is ownerless.
If they don't die, where will King Hujie go to collect the ransom payment of 200,000 livestock?
Is it possible that we still have to ask people to pay for it out of their own pockets?
That won't work!
Going on an expedition wastes money, food, and time, and you have to sell your own iron to pay the ransom fee.
Naturally, Hujie people would not be so stupid!
Of course, there is another consideration: if the Hujie people return to the grassland and the war between the Han and the Huns in the Riverlands ends in a draw, or the Huns win, then they can immediately turn their backs and disown them.
And without evidence and witnesses, Shan Yuting could do nothing to stop him.
And if the Han army is victorious or has a great victory, Hujie can keep the Han Dynasty's thigh, and can also declare to the outside world that "it was just inspired by the gods" without exposing the Hujie tribe's paper tiger nature, which is fierce and cruel, and will make it easier to rule in the future.
From a certain perspective, this is also a form of silence.
After receiving the messenger's accurate answer, both Bo Shi and Chen Jiao felt that their hearts were beating too hard.
Twenty thousand people?
Twenty thousand heads?
How much military merit is this?
At the very least, he can accumulate the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!
only……
Is what the Huns said reliable?
Could it be a scam?
But then, both Chen Jiao and Bo Shi decided that no matter whether it was a scam or not, they would put it into their stomachs first!
…………………………
After the agreement was reached, the envoy returned to his master and recounted today's negotiations with the Han people.
"Xiu Zhi..." Qi Zhi looked at the dozen nobles below him and asked, "Do you think the people of the Han Dynasty can believe it?"
These nobles are of course the backbone of the Hujie tribe.
Nomads are a strange mixture of contradictions.
On the one hand, most of them practice slavery and like to rob people and enslave others.
But on the other hand, the nomads, especially among the nobles, were very violent.
To what extent?
At the annual Tellurium Conference, Chanyu's gains and losses can even be discussed openly!
Within each tribe, the leader also needs to listen to the opinions of the tribe's nobles.
"Do the people of the Han Dynasty really want their king to be a chanyu?" Someone shook his head in disbelief: "Without the edict from the emperor of the Han Dynasty, I don't believe it!"
"But... what else can we do now besides trusting the Han Dynasty people?" Another person refuted: "Besides, I think the Han Dynasty also needs the cooperation of my Hujie tribe!"
"After all, your Majesty is also the descendant of the Luotang clan! He is the clan's descendant!"
"But what if the Han Dynasty people lied to us?" Another person was suspicious.
However, no one suggested confronting the Han army.
Because they don’t dare and don’t have the guts!
It is no exaggeration to say that only people in Hujie know what terrible predicament Hujie is facing now.
Internal and external troubles are constant, and the days are like years. This is the common feeling of every Hujie noble who knows the situation.
"That's enough!" Finally, a noble paced vigorously and said, "Stop arguing!"
He looked at Qie and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Qi Zhi stood up, looked at the man, and said: "Chanyu...our ancestors should have been Shanyu!"
"It's a pity that I met the old Shanyu..." Qiyou sighed.
Old Shanyu, every Huns knows how terrifying and powerful this hero is.
In his hands, a bunch of scattered people gradually merged into a country, a nation, and a voice.
If he were alive, everyone would just look up to him and not dare to challenge him.
The ancestors of the Hujie people once tried to challenge the elder Chanyu, but the result was obvious. Not only were they sent to Jinshan, but they were also deprived of the power of the clan and classified as a separate tribe.
It was not until this generation that they seized the opportunity and returned to Munan.
However, everything has changed.
After being in Nanchi for so long, Ji Zhi also came to understand: no one, whether it was the Munan tribe, the Mubei tribe, or the nobles of Shanyuting, liked him and his tribe.
This is not just because he is from Jinshan.
What’s more, the Hujie people’s beliefs, customs and living habits are completely different from those of the Huns.
In the eyes of the Makunan and Makubei tribes, he and his tribe were like clowns.
It's already a miracle that he can hold his nose and let him sit in the seat of King Youxian temporarily.
Does he want to go further?
No one will agree.
Especially those shamans are extremely hostile and hostile to the Hujie tribe and spread rumors about the Hujie people everywhere.
What is said about Hujie eating human flesh and even feeding on blood!
Where does this go?
The Hujie people only chose sky burial because of the influence of Zoroastrianism.
This is a matter of faith.
But unfortunately, the number of people who are willing to believe it is hard to count.
There was still hope before.
That's because the Lan family and the Huyan family gave him the illusion that as long as he could make meritorious deeds, he could outdo the military officials and at least be qualified to compete with Yu Shan.
But now he has completely woken up.
Neither the Lan family nor the Huyan family took him as an alien in their eyes, and they never regarded him as one of their own.
They were simply using him and his tribe to achieve their own ends.
Maybe the Lan clan and the Huyan clan had already been planning to take advantage of him and his tribe.
After thinking about it carefully, Landasin's performance before and after made him even more clearly convinced of this!
Moreover, his intuition told him that this time, even if he did not suffer a loss in the Han Dynasty or even won, as long as he returned to the grassland and Nanchi, there would definitely be a trap waiting for him.
Thinking of this, Qizhi stood up and said: "Xiuzhi! We Hujie people live on the Jinshan Mountain. We are completely different from the Huns on the grassland. The Huns have never regarded us as the same race!"
"I originally thought that when the Xiongnu's survival was in danger, the Xiongnu would change its mind, but I was wrong..." He said sadly: "Shan Yuting and the four major clans regarded me and all the Hujie people as
For the aliens!”
"For thirty years, Hujie has never had anyone guard Shan Yuting!"
"Thirty years! The Hujie people have never been invited to the Tellurium Conference!"
"I've had enough of those godly shamans in Dragon City, and I've had enough of those arrogant clans in Shan Yuting!"
"Ahura, the good god above, I, the master of Hujie, the supreme king of Jinshan, and the master of Nanchi, swear that I will spread the fire of light to the grassland!"
To the Huns, the Hujie people's beliefs were particularly dazzling and dazzling.
In the eyes of the Hujie people, isn't this the original shamanistic belief of the Xiongnu?
And this also means that Hujie finally gave up his efforts to break through within the Xiongnu system!
In Qie Zhi's view, he was more willing to trust and rely on the Han Dynasty than Shan Yuting.
Because as far as I know, the emperor of the Han Dynasty took very good care of his younger brother.
It can even be said that everyone is treated equally.
What's more, the emperor of the Han Dynasty was a living god.
It is not shameful to serve as the minions and hawks of a true God. On the contrary, it is very glorious!
Servant of God is a profession that most people don’t even have the qualifications for!
Now, the only question for the Hujie people is: is the emperor of the Han Dynasty a good or evil god?
Is he the God of Light who wants to save the world and redeem the world, or is he the God of Evil who wants to corrupt the earth and destroy the world?
But it doesn't matter.
Whether it is a good god or an evil god.
As long as He can protect Hujie and give him what he wants, Shanyu's throne.
Then, work for Him and become a Shanyu, so what?
Of course, this was the idea that Qie Zhi and the Hujie people saw with their own eyes and tasted the power of the Han Dynasty's powerful soldiers and horses.
People are like this. Unless they suffer a loss or get beaten, they can't judge what kind of existence they are facing.
"Ge Zhi!" Qie Zhi looked at the noble who asked him the question and said: "After I have negotiated with the Han Dynasty people, you represent me and the Hujie tribe and go to Chang'an of the Han Dynasty..."
"Everyone in the world says that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was a god. Just go and see if this is true." (To be continued.)
