At this moment, all the Xiongnu nobles were surprised, shocked, and even afraid that the Han army appeared near Yaoyang!
He who had been thinking of surrendering was naturally overjoyed and ready to give his new master a big gift at any time.
However, this incident also stimulated other people, especially those nobles and tribes who were dissatisfied with the military officials but were unwilling to surrender to the Han Dynasty.
In their eyes, the Han Dynasty wanted to kill them all and leave no way for them to survive!
Once the Han army occupied Keyang, the main Xiongnu force would fall into a terrible and dangerous battle similar to the Battle of Mayi.
The land of thousands of miles from the bottom of Yanshan Mountain to the bottom of Yuyang Fortress will become a bloody place for the Xiongnu.
Although, the Huns can choose to disperse and break out.
The Han army will not be able to hold all the roads.
However, the consequences of doing so are not something they can bear.
Counting the slaves and herdsmen, there were a total of 120,000 people and hundreds of thousands of livestock. Once they were defeated, they would become meat on the enemy's chopping block.
In particular, the nobles from the northern part of the country and the royal court had witnessed such horrific scenes with their own eyes.
However, the target is not himself, but the Da Yueshi, Kangju and Daxia coalition forces.
On that day, in Juzhanti (the city of Alexandria in the far east), the Huns cavalry chased and killed hundreds of thousands of defeated coalition troops.
The Huns cavalry did not even spend much effort to make those who dared to resist fall into the river, jump into the cliff, or kneel down to surrender.
Of the hundreds of thousands of coalition troops, not even one out of ten could escape the pursuit of the Huns cavalry.
Most of them actually jumped into the river and drowned themselves...
The corpses of those cowards blocked several rivers for a time.
The plains and mountains were littered with corpses.
The Huns did not want, let alone want, to become such a tragedy.
"Great Chanyu!" King Quluo, who was already planning a coup, has now changed his mind. In his eyes, it doesn't matter whether the military ministers die or not. What is important is that he and his tribe cannot be defeated by the Han Dynasty.
People were surrounded in this terrible place, and then they were treated as pigs and dogs by the Han Dynasty people and killed.
Therefore, he stood up and bowed and said: "Please give the order immediately, the Great Chanyu. I am willing to be the vanguard. While the Han people are not yet stable, mobilize the main force to surround and kill them!"
"The spies reported that the Han Dynasty's cavalry generals had no more than 30,000 horses. Moreover, they had traveled a long distance and their horses and men were exhausted. This is the best opportunity to strangle them!" Huyan Dangtu also said.
"Da Chanyu, my brother heard that back then, Lan Tuoxin once proposed that if the Han Dynasty was too powerful to be defeated, we should abandon the defense of Munan, retreat to Hexi, and dredge Ji Mountain to lure the Han Dynasty to divide their troops, and then gather the main force of the Xiongnu.
Encircle and annihilate some of them..." King Xia also said: "Now, the chariot and cavalry generals of the Han Dynasty have thrown themselves into a trap. Great Chanyu, please make a quick decision!"
Under the heavy pressure of the Han army, the various ministries of the Xiongnu royal court finally put aside their differences and continued to face the enemy!
There is no way, everyone knows that once the whole army is wiped out this time, there will be no need to fight for Shan Yu's position or power.
The Xiongnu will decline rapidly and fall into pieces.
The most important thing is that the Han Dynasty army will probably take over Hexi and the entire Munan and even march into the Western Regions without any effort.
At that time, all the people who lead the bow will become slaves and vassals of the Han Dynasty.
Everyone's wealth and power will be in vain.
For these great nobles of the Xiongnu Empire, surrender to the Han Dynasty?
This is impossible!
Lou Fanren has surrendered, but what will be the fate of Lou Fan King?
He was ignored by the emperor of the Han Dynasty and was even sent to Juyang City in the Han Dynasty to study.
He can no longer even decide the life or death of a slave.
Therefore, when the Xiongnu went south this time, many Loufan nobles were willing to act as internal agents.
And after seeing the fate of King Loufan and the nobles of the Loufan tribe, how could these great nobles still dare to surrender?
Surrender to the Han Dynasty and become King Loufan again?
They are not that stupid!
Now, being forced to the cliff, they can only fight to the death.
The fear and awe were all swept away by this.
The military officials looked at their ministers and nobles and felt a little more comfortable in their hearts.
At least, now, his nobles and ministers have finally regained the pride and honor of a Hun warrior.
He stood up, nodded, and said, "I am guilty!"
He glanced at the ministers and spoke slowly: "Back then, this Chanyu had a dispute with King Youxian. In a moment of anger, he unjustly killed King Youxian. This was Benchanyu's fault!"
"Over the years, Ben Chanyu has regretted day and night. Every time he thinks about it, it was because of Ben Chanyu that the Han Dynasty became powerful and the Huns have fallen to this day! Ben Chanyu wants to kill himself!"
When the officials heard this, they all looked at the military officials blankly.
This was the first time that the Xiongnu Chanyu admitted his mistakes to the nobles and ministers.
Many people were in a daze for a while.
I can’t even believe my ears!
Is this still the same headstrong and arrogant military minister?
But they didn't know that this was the result of the hard work of Xia King and Huyan Dangtu, and now, when the Xiongnu Empire was facing life and death, the military officials had to make a decision in order to win people's hearts and win over the tribes.
There is no way, if we don't do this, the Hun Empire will really be hopeless!
The military officials did not want to be captured by the Han army, sent to Chang'an, and then raised as pets by their son-in-law, or even put in cages like tigers for others to admire.
Xiongnu Chanyu?!
What a strange thing!
Even, you will be ridiculed and ridiculed!
This is something that military officials are unwilling to face even to death!
Moreover, the military minister is indeed very regretful now.
Of course, it is not that I regretted killing King Youxian, but that I regretted not immediately responding to the request of King Zhao of the Han Dynasty and leading troops to seize the pass after killing Queen Youxian.
If he had known this, he would have led troops to destroy and burn the entire northern Han Dynasty even when the Xiongnu civil strife was still uncertain.
In this way, at least you don't have to worry about the Han Dynasty's attack today, let alone suffer this humiliation now!
"Great Chanyu!" Huyan Dangtu immediately knelt down and said: "Back then, Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty also had the experience of being besieged in Pingcheng, and Maodun Great Chanyu was also trapped in Donghu! As long as Great Chanyu
If Chanyu can work hard to govern, unite the tribes, and accumulate strength in the future, we, the Xiongnu, will definitely avenge today's shame!"
"Even if I can't see that day, my son and grandson will definitely continue my legacy!"
King Xia also knelt down and said: "Great Chanyu, there is a saying in the Han Dynasty: Knowing your mistakes can lead to great improvements! Today, Great Chanyu has suffered this humiliation. As long as he works hard to innovate and learn from the Han Dynasty, I promise, I will be great."
The Xiongnu will surely take revenge!"
He looked at the other nobles, raised his head proudly, and said: "Heads of all tribes and kings, please don't forget that we, the Great Xiongnu, also have the great Yuezhi, Kangju and Daxia, the treasure-hiding places!"
"The great Xiongnu has suffered such humiliation and failure today. Although it has taught us a profound lesson, it also tells us that for the time being, we, the great Xiongnu, cannot confront the Han Dynasty head-on!"
"And our great Xiongnu is so vast!" He said proudly: "It is tens of thousands of miles in length and breadth, and the vastness is boundless. The people of the Han Dynasty can go out of the fortress for a thousand or three thousand miles, but they can still go out of the fortress for thirty thousand miles?"
"As long as we, united as one, work hard to learn the knowledge, technology, and systems of the Han Dynasty on the one hand, and on the other hand, continue to march westward to plunder people and wealth, relying on the Western countries, the national power of our great Xiongnu will surely increase rapidly.
Recover and continue to grow stronger!”
"On the other hand, the Han Dynasty will face the obstruction of the vast sea and the constraints of the boundless Gobi Desert. They cannot threaten the survival of the Xiongnu!"
"Ten years from now, twenty years from now, we will definitely be able to take revenge!"
Listening to the words of Huyan Dangtu and King Xia, and then looking at the sincere expressions of the military officials.
Other tribes, especially the leaders of the Tokugawa tribe, became excited.
Yes, although the Xiongnu were completely defeated by the Han Dynasty.
But the Xiongnu were not at the end of their rope yet.
In the West, there are Daxia, Kangju, Yuezhi and even more docile Shendu who can be hired by the Huns' cavalry.
The Han Dynasty, on the other hand, would be beyond reach due to the barrier of the vast sea and the Gobi Desert, and could only watch as the Xiongnu slowly regained their strength.
Thinking of this, the fighting spirit of these nobles was rekindled.
Even the tribal leaders in Munan were moved.
For them, following the Xiongnu, although they would probably suffer a loss, they would have to migrate to Mubei or the Western Regions and live under the shelter of others.
However, surrendering to the Han Dynasty was even more disastrous.
No one wants to become the King of Loufan, to be ignored by the Han Dynasty, treated as a mascot, no longer able to dominate, or even to be ridden on the head by the slaves of the past.
How to choose, naturally there is no need to choose!
What's more, now that the military ministers have taken the initiative to admit their mistake in killing King Youxian, many people feel better and their grudges have disappeared a lot.
"Great Chanyu!" All the nobles in the big tent knelt down and worshiped: "Great Plough Gutu, you are the son of the sun and the moon, the darling of the gods. Please sing the Dy, and your slaves will be your hounds and falcons.
!”
However, the military minister opened his hands and said: "Transmit this Shanyu's order to take the three thousand horses of King Quluo, Xubu and Lan as the vanguard. This Shanyu will personally command the generals on the left and right of Wang Ting as the vanguard."
The central army, set up the dragon flag, with Zuo Daduwei and Zuo Dadanghu as the left and right wings, follow me and strangle the main force of the Han Dynasty's chariots and cavalry!"
He announced: "I am ordering all the warriors of the tribes to tell you that this battle is for the great Xiongnu and for the gods! It is for my descendants of the Xiongnu to not be enslaved and oppressed by the Han Dynasty!"
"Whether you are a slave or a noble, you must fight bravely!"
"Those who can take the first rank in the Han Dynasty, slaves will be promoted to herders, herders will be promoted to commanders, and commanders will be promoted to lords of Gudu!"
"If you can kill the officers above the Han Dynasty team leader, everyone below the Gudu Marquis will be promoted to the Gudu Marquis!"
"No matter who is able to kill the captain or captain of the Han Dynasty, this Shanyu will marry the daughter of the Twins!"
"Anyone who can take the head of the Han Dynasty chariot general, no matter who he is, will be named the King of Heaven and will be given 30,000 slaves, 3,000 female slaves, and 100,000 livestock!"
Finally, the military minister pointed to himself and said: "After this battle, if this Shanyu can return to the grassland, he must apologize to the gods and ancestors... Yu Shanyu, the virtuous king of the left, will be Shanyu, and the king of Xia will be the virtuous king of the right.
King Hu Lushe of Zuo Guli is the wise king of the left, King Quluo is the general of the left, Huyan Dangtu is the general of the right, and King Zhelan is the captain of the left. All ministers will assist me with all their heart, and we must make sure that our great Huns will no longer have
What a shame today!”
"Great Chanyu!" At this moment, the entire tent was filled with cries.
Many nobles were moved.
Everyone feels that although Junchen made many mistakes in the past, he is now a real Chanyu.
Just like Laoshang Da Chanyu, Maodun Da Chanyu is an ordinary person!
Dare to take responsibility, this is so rare!
However, King Xia and Huyan Dangtu were both shocked.
I couldn't believe my ears at all.
They all remember clearly how they earnestly advised them yesterday, but the military officials were unmoved. It was only today that they pinched their noses and agreed under the heavy pressure of the Han people. Even so, he was very unhappy and even killed him.
One of his beloved concubines.
what is going on?
Why did the military minister suddenly change into a different person?
But how did they know that this was just a blank check?
In Jun Chen's mind, at this moment, he had planned everything.
He will make everyone his pawns.
"Yu Shan...Father Shanyu is sorry for you..." the military minister said in his heart: "But don't worry, father Shanyu will definitely give you several smart and healthy brothers in the future...Anyway, your body is not good either.
good……"
On the grassland, it is never news that fathers and sons kill each other, and brothers kill each other for power.
For the sake of power, military officials can sacrifice everything.
His current generous words are just to stabilize his position.
When they returned to the grassland, news came that King Zuo Xian had died suddenly.
Can he, a Chanyu, really die?
No!
By that time, everyone, everyone who was persuaded and moved by him, will loyally unite around him.
However, he has not changed.
At least, he now knows and understands.
The Han Dynasty, at least now and in the next ten years, will not be an opponent of the Xiongnu.
We can only hope that the vast sea and vast Gobi can block and hinder the Han Dynasty's attack and buy him time.
In these ten years, he will speed up and rely on the Hanhai and Junji Mountains to deal with the Han Dynasty. If necessary, the Qilian Mountains, Hexi and even Junji Mountains can be given to the Han Dynasty.
It doesn't matter!
As long as the Western Expedition can be won and a steady stream of slaves and wealth can be obtained, this is enough.
The military officials didn’t believe it!
How could the Han Dynasty people continue to cross the Gobi Desert and launch thousands of miles of expeditions for ten consecutive years?
"I'll drag you to death! I'll wear you to death!" the military official thought viciously in his heart.
But now, his acting skills continue to soar. He pulled out the knife from his waist, cut his cheek in front of the nobles and leaders, let the blood flow down, and then raised his arms and shouted: "Now
! Let us, the descendants of the great Chanyu of Maodun, the warriors of the people who lead the bow, let the people of the Han Dynasty know that I, the Xiongnu, must not be insulted! Warriors! Pull out your weapons! I use the great Xiongnu to prop up the plow Gutu, risking my life.
As the descendants of the great Chanyu Dun, as the son of the great Chanyu, I command you to kill all the chariot and cavalry generals of the Han Dynasty! No matter what the cost!"
"Long live!" the military officials roared: "The people who lead the bow will never surrender!" (To be continued.)
