Zhang Beichen followed the envoy of Yan State and headed all the way to Donghu.
Donghu is an alliance of nomadic peoples, similar to the Huns. His living habits are also relatively close. This is not the first time that Zhang Beichen has explained to the nomadic peoples. He knows all the rules and habits clearly.
The mission came to the golden tent of the Donghu King. The Donghu King could also be called the Donghu Great Chanyu and Daji.
Daji sat on the throne made of golden beast bones, looked down at Zhang Beichen condescendingly, and mocked: "This man is just two arms and two legs, not as powerful as you said! If you want him, it's better to ask more. food!"
"Master, why not chop him up and feed him to the dog!" said a strong man with undressed hair. His hair was thick and there was a odor on his body. He probably hadn't taken a shower for a long time.
People in the Central Plains are relatively more hygienic. In the surrounding tribes, only a few nobles pay more attention to etiquette and hygiene, and some just don’t care at all.
Zhang Beichen looked at him and said, "Is this person who raises dogs for the Great Shanyu?"
After he said that, everyone laughed.
The man said angrily: "Bold, I am the Khan of the Xianbei tribe, Yu Manhe, Zhang Beichen, you are looking for death!"
As he said that, Yu Manhe was about to step forward to attack Zhang Beichen. The Great Chanyu Daji scolded, "Yu Manhe, don't touch him for now."
The hostages that were finally received cannot be beaten to death by Yu Manhe.
"The people in the south are sharp-tongued!" said Daji, "It will be fine after grinding. In the future, you will raise horses for me. You should treat my horse as my parents, and I will not raise them well. Whip to serve!”
After saying that, Daji was unwilling to say more and directly asked someone to take Zhang Beichen away.
The staff suggested: "Da Shanyu, this person has some talent, maybe he can use it."
Daji chuckled and said, "No matter whether he has talent or not, I will first hit him and let him know the rules of my Donghu!"
...
So, Zhang Beichen began to raise horses in Donghu. The Donghu people deliberately made things difficult for him and exiled him to a cold and remote area. There was nothing, and they had to build a house by themselves, find food by themselves, and even sent someone to monitor him.
It doesn’t matter to Zhang Beichen. Isn’t it just a wilderness to survive? It’s not that I haven’t been there before.
In this simulated time and space, his cultivation level has reached the peak of the eighth level. This strength, let alone hunting wild beasts, even killing ferocious beasts, there is no problem with demons.
While raising horses, Zhang Beichen kept trying to collect information here. He often distributed food to the soldiers who monitored him, taught them martial arts and riding skills, and soon became familiar with the people around him.
Zhang Beichen also roughly understood the situation of Donghu.
Although Donghu is a tribal alliance, he mainly talks about three tribes.
The first is the tribe of the Great Shanyu Daji of the Donghu, which is the strongest, with more than 40,000 cavalrymen. It can be called the Donghu tribe directly.
The second is the Xianbei tribe, and the leader is the Xianbei Khan Yu Manhe who had spoken rudely to him before.
The third is the Wuhuan Tribe. Zhang Beichen, the leader of the Wuhuan Tribe, had seen him in the golden tent before. He was a dark-skinned man named Hao Zhen.
The matter between Donghu is basically the final say of these three tribes.
Among them, the Xianbei tribe and the Wuhuan tribe often clashed for territory, water and grass.
During this period, the Donghu and the Huns also fought hard.
The territory of Donghu happened to be adjacent to the territory of Maotai, the Xiongnu Shanyu. Maotai had not trained his invincible wolf cavalry at this time.
During this period, Mao Tai had just killed his father, and had just been in the Shanyu position for a few days, so he naturally had no ability to fight against Daji.
In order to seek peace, Mao Tai also sent a lot of cattle, sheep and horses to Donghu.
Zhang Beichen thought to himself that there is actually a lot to do here.
Donghu seems to be powerful, but in fact its internal organization is loose. If civil strife occurs and external enemies are associated with collapse, it is very likely to collapse.
...
Three months passed, and the Great Shanyu Daji of Donghu was idle for one day, and suddenly remembered that he had a hostage from Yan State Zhang Beichen.
He asked, "Is Zhang Beichen dead now?"
He thought that the Prime Minister of Yan would definitely not be able to stand the harsh environment here and could not survive.
Who knows the subordinates report: "King, he is not dead. He lives well. The soldiers praised him, saying that the horses he raised were fat and strong, and were very obedient. The leaders of some small tribes even often went to invite him.
Drink and eat meat!”
"What?" Daji heard this, how could this work? I took you as a hostage, not letting you come here to enjoy your happiness!
He ordered: "Go and call Zhang Beichen to me!"
"Abide by the order!"
...
At this time, in the wooden house built by Zhang Beichen himself, Zhang Beichen was drinking with a tribe Khan.
Khan and the leader had similar meanings, but during this period, the Shanyu was the highest honorary title.
The one who drank with Zhang Beichen was the Khan of the Wuhuan tribe, Hao Zhen. Hao lived on the border between Donghu and Yan when he was young, and also learned about some of the cultures of the Central Plains. Once he came to ask Zhang Beichen for some questions.
Beichen told him one by one.
Hao Zhen found that Zhang Beichen was indeed very talented, so he often visited him and regarded him as a free aide.
"Brother Zhang!" Hao Zhen picked up a glass of horse milk wine and said, "Last time, according to what you said, our cattle and sheep are cured! I didn't expect that you, a native of the Central Plains, could understand so much! I wish you a cup of wine!
”
"Brother Hao, you are polite. Everyone is friends, this is all right!" Zhang Beichen said with a smile.
"It's a pity that Brother Zhang is now a hostage, otherwise I will definitely invite you to the Wuhuan tribe and let you be a little coach!"
Xiaoshuai was an official position in their tribe during this period, similar to the leader of a small tribe and equivalent to a general.
"Let's talk about it if you have a chance."
The two were chatting when Daji's envoy came, claiming that the Great Shanyu was going to see Zhang Beichen.
Hao Zhen stood up and said, "Brother Zhang is in danger, so let me go with you."
Zhang Beichen did not refuse, after all, no one knew what Daji was thinking.
Through Hao Zhen, he also learned about the character of this Donghu Da Shanyu. Daji was very brave and was not afraid of death when fighting.
His strength is now in the semi-saint realm!
In addition, their tribes were all brave people, and Daji defeated the Huns and Yan people several times, so he became the Great Shanyu.
This does not mean that Daji is a good leader. He is greedy and lustful. He enjoys the best meat every day. He also dominated his mother, father and brother's women. As long as he likes them, he will not fall behind.
Hao Zhen's daughter was also favored by Daji because of her natural beauty. In order to protect her, Hao Zhen had to send her to Wuhuan Mountain as a tribal saint who sacrificed to heaven, and Daji was not willing to force her to leave.
[You and Hao Zhen came to the golden tent of the Great Shanyu of Donghu.]
Daji looked at Zhang Beichen and saw that except for his darker skin, he did not look haggard, but instead he was full of energy and energetic.
Daji sneered: "Okay, Zhang Beichen, are you here to be a hostage or enjoy your happiness?"
Zhang Beichen knew that Daji liked flattery, so he said, "Donghu water plants are lush, cattle and sheep are plump, which is much better than Yan State, so he naturally lives better."
Those people in the Central Plains have always despised nomadic tribes, believing that they cannot feed themselves, do not cover their bodies, and are barbaric and uncivilized.
Zhang Beichen, the prime minister of Yan State, actually said that Yan State was not as good as Donghu. This foreigner praised his tribe, which satisfied Daji's vanity. He laughed and said, "Okay, you are a powerful person.
!”
"Today I will let you see the strength of my Donghu. People come to roast the tiger I hunted, so that the Prime Minister of Yan will open his eyes!"
Daji was happy and even invited Zhang Beichen to eat tiger meat.
At the banquet, Zhang Beichen continued to flatter Daji, but it was not a brainless flattery, otherwise it would seem too fake. If necessary, he would still be as arrogant as the Prime Minister of Yan State.
After all, if you don’t have the standard, what you say will not have the standard.
Daji was full of wine and food, pointing at the warriors under his command and said to Zhang Beichen: "Zhang Beichen, look at my Donghu warriors, how about I compare to the Huns?"
Zhang Beichen said: "The Huns are fierce, but the Donghu people are more brave. At this time, the Donghu cavalry is stronger than the Huns. But I heard that the Huns Shanyu Maotai was blessed by the beast god and was training a powerful team.
cavalry."
"If this cavalry is trained, the Donghu will be in danger!"
"Hmph!" Hearing him say this, Daji snorted coldly: "My Maotai, I can kill him easily! His father has been defeated by this king many times, but he has not grown all his hair.
What to fight with me?"
On the side, the Xianbei Khan said to Daji at Manhe: "King, I think this person is deliberately provoking the generals, wanting us to fight to the death with the Huns, and then he will get a bargain from behind!"
Zhang Beichen said: "Khan underestimated the Great Shanyu too much. With the strength of the Great Shanyu, it was only a matter of time before the Xiongnu and Yan State were captured!"
"Hahahaha!" Daji smiled, "Zhang Beichen, you are not loyal at all!"
Daji asked again: "What if I, Donghu warrior, compared to the cavalry of Yan State?"
Zhang Beichen said: "It is naturally far better than the previous Yan cavalry! But if it is compared with the current Yan cavalry, I am afraid it is worse than the current Yan cavalry!"
As soon as Zhang Beichen finished speaking, Daji's face changed immediately. He inserted the flesh-sharing knife to the ground and said coldly: "You Yan State cavalry have been defeated repeatedly, and are you qualified to be comparable to my Donghu Warriors?"
Zhang Beichen was neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "That was the former Yan State cavalry. Now Yan State cavalry, after my special training, is no less powerful than the Donghu warriors!"
"Your special training?" Daji looked at him questioningly, "Do you have this ability?"
"Of course!" Zhang Beichen recommended himself and said, "If the king doesn't believe it, I can train a team. In just half a year, the king will send a team to compete with the cavalry I trained. If he loses, the king will kill me.
Or baked!"
Zhang Beichen said this, and Daji naturally would not admit defeat. He said, "Okay, you are so arrogant, I will teach you a lesson!"
"I will give you thirty cavalry and give you training. After half a year, I will watch the battle myself!"
