Chapter 1113 Are you also worthy of the surname Tzuyu? (1)
**
Naturally, the Huns' calculations could not be concealed from others.
We are all people who lead the bow, how can we not know what the Huns think?
It's just that people die for wealth and birds die for food.
This world has never been short of people who are blinded by interests or have a sense of luck.
Soon, the argument stopped.
Because Huyan Dangtu became the referee.
"King Qu She... the nobles attack first..." He said slowly: "Now that Qu She's tribe has left, the fox tribes will take second place. After the fox tribes have left, Lu Nan will take second place..."
Huyan Dangtu arranged the order of attack one by one.
Then he said: "As long as those Han Dynasty creations can be destroyed, not only the destroyers will get the rewards I promised, but the other attacking tribes will also get one thousand slaves and five hundred maids each!"
As soon as this new reward came out, all the tribes were immediately excited and shouted: "General Zuo, please rest assured, the slaves will definitely destroy all the creations of the Han Dynasty!"
Huyan Dangtu looked at the faces of these people and nodded with satisfaction.
In his heart, he sneered again and again.
"Go, go! Let's all go!"
"The more blood feuds you have with the Han Dynasty, the more secure the position of our great Huns will be!"
Of course, there are also smart people who stand silently and watch with cold eyes.
"These people are crazy!" King He Lai quietly stood aside and thought, "Do they think the Han Dynasty people don't have enough martial arts?"
The Battle of Heyin has shown the fact that the combat effectiveness of the Han Dynasty people has greatly exceeded the expectations of all the people who drew bows.
Even the elite and powerful Xubu clan cavalry from the Xiongnu headquarters were nothing compared to the Han cavalry.
Back then, in the battle between Yin Lieshui, Zhelan's cavalry braved the Yuezhi forces three times their own, lost half of them, and charged wildly. It was already the most brutal battle on the grassland.
but……
In the Battle of Heyin, the Han Dynasty cavalry faced the Xubu cavalry, which had an absolute advantage, and faced off head-on, completely defeating the Xubu cavalry.
This was even more tragic than the original Battle of Yin Lieshui.
The Han Dynasty even suffered more than half of the battle losses, but they were still organized, orderly, and combative.
And that Han army was clearly just a partial force.
Now, under Gaoque City, is the main force of the Han army.
Didn’t you see the battle flag of the Tiger Guard flying high?
To fight against the Han Dynasty emperor’s imperial guards?
King He Lai feels that he still wants to live a few more years...
But...
He didn't bother to remind those fools who were blinded by interests.
For nomads, not only can they defeat and conquer their opponents, they can also strengthen themselves.
Even if your opponent is defeated, you can also strengthen yourself.
As long as other tribes suffer heavy losses, then the Herai tribe will naturally rise.
Just like King Horai, there are four or five others who have similar ideas.
These guys looked at each other, then buried their heads deeply, showing a pleasant smile.
………………………………
At the same time, in the distant desert, it was snowing heavily.
The closer you get to Makuhoku, the colder the climate becomes.
In such a season, generally speaking, there will be no trace of human activities, except for the Dinling people. On the grasslands, the Tinling people play a role similar to scavengers in nature. They will seize every possible opportunity to sneak around.
poaching the Huns' livestock and forest beasts.
At the foot of Junji Mountain, a cavalry group of several hundred people trudged hard through the wind and snow.
Landasin wore a thick felt hat and a wolfskin coat, looking at the thick white snow on Junji Mountain.
His eyes gradually became firm.
Junji Mountain is the hometown of the Lan family and the place where Shanyu imprisoned felons.
In the Xiongnu Empire, there was only one kind of person who was a repeat offender: ***.
All other crimes will be sentenced on the spot.
Either kill or punish.
Only **** can be eligible to be imprisoned.
Historically, most of the ** would be exiled, as the Bank of China said.
Only those top nobles with noble status and noble blood can enjoy the qualifications of imprisonment.
The person who was imprisoned in a cave prison in Junji Mountain was named Liu.
Did the Xiongnu have a Liu family?
Of course!
Since the marriage between Han and Huns, the Liu family was born among the Xiongnu royal family.
This is because of the tradition of the Xiongnu: except for the royal clan's Luutang family, no one else is worthy of the surname Luutang.
Therefore, those who are not worthy of the surname Luantang can only take the surname of their mother's family as their surname.
The nobleman imprisoned here is the son of the elder Shanyu and the youngest brother of the military minister Shanyu. He was once named King Ruoda.
At the same time, he was also the first person within the Xiongnu to advocate Sinicization and learn from the Han Dynasty.
But precisely because of this, he violated the taboo of a once powerful force within the Xiongnu.
This force was led by Han Wangxin, the remnants of Chen Xi, Wang Huang and other descendants of Han rebel generals who surrendered to the Huns and Han Dynasty.
It's also funny to say.
In the history of the Xiongnu, those who loudly advocated maintaining the original tradition of the Xiongnu and staying away from the culture and luxury goods of the Han Dynasty were all surrendered subjects of the Han Dynasty.
Such as the Bank of China said.
Sometimes these are even more excited than the Huns themselves.
Whenever you see a Xiongnu noble learning something from the Han Dynasty or loving the treasures of the Han Dynasty, it is as if your parents are dead.
On the contrary, the Huns themselves did not care about this.
During the period of the Shanyu, King Ruoda vigorously promoted the Han Dynasty's way of life within his own tribe.
He ordered his tribe to support the elders and take care of young children. He changed the Huns' tradition of strong men occupying the most social resources and instead worked hard to protect women and children.
On the other hand, he ordered his army to implement the strategy of riding in the fields in the countries of the Western Regions.
This was also the first time that the Huns began to try to focus their food sources on farming.
These measures of his were very effective, greatly improving the living conditions of his tribe, and the population and livestock increased much faster than other tribes.
Even the wise kings on the left and right could not match the population growth rate of his tribe.
This caused panic among many people.
Especially those who surrendered from the Han Dynasty. With Bank of China taking the lead in the connection, King Ruoda was accused of "attempting to communicate with the Han Dynasty" and "plotting to assassinate Shanyu".
Therefore, he was imprisoned in Junji Mountain by the order of his old superior, Shanyu, and was never allowed to leave.
Landasin chose to return to Junji Mountain at this time because he wanted to meet this legendary figure.
In essence, Landasin felt that the defeat of the previous King Ruoda was not unjust.
Among the royal families of the Xiongnu, those princes from the Han Dynasty who married princesses would change their names and surnames when they grew up to show their determination not to associate with the Han Dynasty people.
This person is the only one who still uses his mother's surname even after he reaches adulthood.
As the eldest son of the Lan family, Lan Tuoxin knew very well that King Ruoda was not dead.
On the contrary, he lived a good life.
After climbing hundreds of steps along Junji Mountain, Landosin came to a valley covered by snow and dense forests.
As soon as he entered, dozens of warriors who were on guard and on guard came out of the valley.
These people were slightly startled when they saw Landosin, then knelt down and worshiped: "Master!"
"Where is King Ruoda who is imprisoned here?" Landasin asked.
"Master, please come with your servant..." A noble-looking man stood up and said.
Under the guidance of that man, Landosin entered the depths of the valley. Here, there was a natural cave that led deep into the mountain.
The temperature in the cave was so low that even Landosin felt a little cold.
Follow the cave and go deeper.
In the dark distance, a burning bonfire was particularly conspicuous.
Landasin walked over and saw a comfortable little house covered with soft hay.
Wooden boards were used around the house to insulate the walls of the cave.
On the burning bonfire, there is also a funi (a Huns utensil, a bronze vessel similar to a kettle) boiling, and a middle-aged man with disheveled hair but who has taken care of himself very clean is sitting next to the fire.
, wearing a thick bearskin coat.
On the wall not far away, there is half a lamb hanging.
It seems that the imprisoned King Ruoda is still living a good life.
This is normal. Even back then, Bank of China said he was exiled to Beihai, but in fact he had enough food and clothing. The military official Shanyu even gave Bank of China 200 sheep and five horses.
This is enough to prevent him from starving to death in the North Sea.
What's more, this man is the son of the great Chanyu, a member of the royal family of the Luotang clan.
Landasin came over, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Slave Landasin has seen King Ruoda!"
"Lanta Xin?" The man looked up and asked, "Is he the current patriarch of the Lan family?"
"Not yet!" Landosin said: "The current Zuo Danghu is the uncle of a slave!"
"Oh..." King Ruoda nodded, added some firewood to his campfire, and said, "Then you will be the next head of the Lan clan!"
Landosin did not deny it, but just smiled and said: "The king is indeed as calm as the legend says!"
"Haha..." King Ruotuan waved his hand and said, "There is nothing indifferent..."
He raised his eyebrows and asked: "What is the Chanyu in power now?"
Landasin was about to answer, but he suddenly waved his hand and said: "Let me guess..."
"Father Chanyu probably passed away..." King Ruotang said with his fingers: "I just don't know that he lived for a few years after I was imprisoned. However, based on my inference, father Chanyu should be
He won’t live long, after all, his health has been bad..."
"Second Jizhou Chanyu has passed away more than ten years ago..." Landosin said.
King Ruoting blinked and said, "No wonder, no wonder the head of the Lan clan dared to come to see me!"
"Is the third order the military minister or the Youxian King?" He murmured to himself, and then smiled: "It should be the military minister... If it is the Youxian King, you probably don't dare to come to see me..."
"Who comes after the military minister?"
He thought for a while, then lowered his eyes and said with great sadness: "It must be someone I don't know..."
The period when he was active was at least twenty years ago.
Twenty years is enough time to kill two generations of chanyus.
Landasin looked a little sad.
This man once made all the difference in the history of the Xiongnu, and was so popular that he aroused the unanimous hatred of King Zuo Xian and King You Xian.
Among them, the military officials of King Zuoxian at that time just watched with indifference, sitting back and watching the show.
And King Youxian was the one who added insult to injury.
This man's dismounting also caused drastic changes within the Xiongnu.
His loyal supporter and die-hard supporter, the then Zuo Dadu Lieutenant Zhang Ni led his troops to attempt to launch a coup by taking advantage of the opportunity of the old Shanyu to leave Shanyuting, but failed.
Zhang Ni led his troops to escape from Shan Yuting and fled to the Han Dynasty.
This led to the largest war between the Han and Hungarians after the Pingcheng.
The two countries have been at war with each other at the Great Wall for nearly a year and a half!
"Your Majesty, the third military minister Shanyu is still in power now..." Landasin couldn't help but tell him the answer.
When King Ruotang heard this, he smiled mockingly: "It's the military minister... I remember that the military minister and King Youxian have always been at odds with each other. It seems that King Youxian is dead, either dead or imprisoned like me.
!”
"Your Majesty is wise, and I admire you greatly!" Landasin said with a smile.
But King Ruotang stood up, looked at Lan Tuoxin, and asked: "Then what is the intention of the next head of the Lan family to come to see me, a useless person who has nothing? I have no use value!"
"The king is joking..." Landasin knelt down and worshiped: "I came to see the king to ask you to come out and save the Huns!"
"Save the Huns?" King Ruotuan bit his lip and asked, "Have the Yuezhi people come back?"
"No..." Lando said sincerely: "So that the king knows that the Great Chanyu has marched thousands of miles westward, destroyed countless countries, and if he defeats the Yuezhi again, it is estimated that after a few more attacks, the Yuezhi will be completely destroyed...
"
"Then what you are talking about is..." King Ruotan turned his attention to the south: "Han Dynasty?"
Han Dynasty...
His body also has the blood of the Han Dynasty...
He once yearned for Chang'an in the Han Dynasty and wanted to visit Chang'an, the great city where his mother was born and lived.
but……
Were the people of the Han Dynasty that powerful?
He became a little confused.
From Landosin's description, it is not difficult to see that the Xiongnu Empire today should still be very strong. Shanyu's Western Expedition destroyed countless countries, and the Yuezhi people fled again.
But alone in the south, the Han Dynasty, which had been more than capable of defense and insufficient of offense, rose rapidly.
It has even threatened the survival of the Xiongnu.
is it possible?
Landasin is kidding, right?
"Tell me, what's going on?" King Ruotan asked seriously.
Landasin then described the changes in the world in the past ten or twenty years one by one.
When it comes to the death of the old Shanyu, the military minister Chanyu took advantage of King Youxian's failure in the southern invasion to launch a coup, bloodbathed the Shanyu court, killed King Youxian and a large number of nobles, and exiled Zhongxing Shuo and other southern invaders, he
Some were silent.
And when he heard that the new king of the Han Dynasty had ascended the throne, worked hard to govern, and soon conquered Korea from the east, surrendered to the people of Hao, and fulfilled his destiny, his expression became serious.
Then came the Battle of Mayi. Zhelan's cavalry was broken and sank in the sand, Yin Zhixie died in the battle, and Aries and Loufan were wiped out.
King Ruotang finally couldn't sit still.
Finally, Lan Tuosin said: "Now, the Han Dynasty's army is approaching Gaoque, and the Hejian Land is no longer safe. Moreover, the eastward invasion force led by him has also been blocked by the Han Dynasty between the white mountains and black waters. The Huns are already in danger.
I sincerely ask your Majesty to come out and assist the Shanyu to save the fate of the Huns!"
After hearing this, King Ruoting sighed and said, "Even if I am willing to go out, I'm afraid the Third Shanyu may not be willing to let me out!"
"Besides, I've been away from the world for too long, so long that I don't know the changes in the world. What will happen if I leave?"
"When the king was here, the elder Shanyu also praised him and said: After my death, King Ruo Tu will be the wise man of the Huns. I have already heard of your wisdom. As long as the king is willing to come out of the mountain, I will definitely ask you.
Chanyu approves!”
"Besides, your Majesty can also educate King Zuo Xian. King Zuo Xian is only eight years old this year. He is very smart and is my hope for the future of the Xiongnu!"
After hearing this, King Ruotan laughed and said: "It doesn't make any difference whether you go out or not. I have been reading the Han Dynasty books left to me by Mu Yan recently, so I have quite a lot of experience. Please tell Shan Yu!"
"Please give me your Majesty's orders!" Landasin hurriedly listened attentively. He was very clear about this man's former reputation.
Even his teacher, the Bank of China, mentioned King Ruoda many times, thinking that he was the smartest and most strategic person among the masters of Shanyu.
Bank of China said that when he was about to die, he even regretted that he had joined forces to frame this King Ruoda.
This shows how powerful this person is.
King Ruotang looked at the bonfire and said: "If it is true as you say, the Han Dynasty has a divine emperor on the throne and divine cavalry charging, then it will never be an advantage!"
"Please Shanyu give up all unnecessary places as much as possible..."
"The grassland is vast enough that the Han Dynasty people can march thousands of miles, but they cannot march thousands of miles!"
"Also, please Shanyu continue the western expedition, but no longer for plunder and conquest, but for rule and enslavement!"
"Everywhere you go, set up large and small canal commanders and tribal kings. If you can farm, you can ride on the field; if you can herd, then use the tribe to herd!" He smiled and said: "The world is so big, the people of the Han Dynasty cannot keep fighting.
In the past, and once the journey of the expedition was delayed for thousands of miles, the supply lines and logistics of the Han Dynasty army would definitely become a weak point! The Xiongnu, on the other hand, could always receive supplies and support from local tribes and kingdoms, and we had already established a
Invincible!"
Landasin was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Your Majesty is really a man of God. This plan can solve the urgent need of the Xiongnu!"
He was even more determined to invite King Ruota to come out.
But little did he know that he had forgotten a very important condition.
He is not a Chanyu, or even a member of the royal family of the Luantang clan.
He is just the eldest son of the Lan family.
At this moment, in the far western region.
The military minister Shanyu, who had just returned to the land of the former Wusun Kingdom, was greeted by a bunch of nobles crying and complaining.
"Great Chanyu, please let your slaves make the decision..." Countless people cried and knelt in front of the military ministers, including even the military minister's nephew, the military minister's brother-in-law, etc.
Mu Yan's death hurt the interests of many people.
Especially those within the Luotang clan who relied on the protection of the Mulan clan.
You Guli Wang Yishi was furious.
Moreover, it is difficult to find a way out, so I am very happy.
As soon as he heard about what Landosin had done, he immediately ordered the shamans under his control to make up all kinds of jokes and falsehoods in Makuhoku.
He even made it fake that there were wailing sounds in the tombs of Shanyu and Modun Chanyu, the elders of Longcheng.
This made both the Tokugawa clan and the Luotang clan fearful.
What's even more troublesome is that several of Landosin's brothers also took the opportunity to jump up. (To be continued.)
