[You started training cavalry squads, created excellent horse harnesses for them, and trained cavalry battle formations. After half a year, you created an elite squad.]
If you train a whole army, it will definitely take longer. But training only thirty people is more than enough for Zhang Beichen. Moreover, these Donghu people are good at riding. They only need to learn tactical cooperation and their combat effectiveness can greatly increase.
Half a year later, the Great Shanyu Daji came to the scene as promised and brought the leaders of various tribes.
Daji first watched the thirty people trained by Zhang Beichen. Seeing that they were all majestic and imposing, he was thinking in his heart: "This Zhang Beichen is indeed something."
Daji knew the cavalry very well. Just looking at the appearance of these people and their well-trained appearance, he knew that this team had extraordinary combat power.
He thought to himself, if he sent a cavalry to fight the soldiers trained by Zhang Beichen, wouldn’t it be too embarrassing to lose?
So Daji asked, "Who wants to take action?"
The Xianbei Khan was dissatisfied with Zhang Beichen at Manhe because Zhang Beichen and Wuhuan Khan were too close to each other and helped Wuhuan Khan do a lot of things.
He stood up and said, "Master, let the warriors under my tent teach him a lesson!"
"Okay!" said Daji, "I am here to watch the battle. If you win, you will be rewarded with a hundred cattle and sheep!"
"Abide by the order!"
Yu Manhe specially selected his elite warriors to fight Zhang Beichen's cavalry.
Both sides held swords without a sharp edge, and the spear tip was also wrapped in animal skin.
"Charge!" Yu Manhe shouted, and his thirty warriors rushed up on horseback.
On the other hand, the cavalry trained by Zhang Beichen were well-trained and formed a battle formation and fought with the opponent with the power of the battle formation.
Yu Manhe's cavalry relies purely on personal bravery, while Zhang Beichen's cavalry is also moving at high speed, but maintains its formation at all times.
In this way, there are people defending, attacking, and silhouettes in the front, back, left and right cavalry formations at all times.
After two consecutive charges, Yu Manhe's cavalry had all collapsed, and although Zhang Beichen's team was injured, their overall combat effectiveness was still more than 70%, which can be said to be a complete victory!
Seeing these cavalry trained by Zhang Beichen, the tribal leaders of the Donghu were all scared!
The combat effectiveness and discipline of this cavalry are too strong. Especially those strange horse harnesses, relying on him, almost everyone in the formation can become the top cavalry!
Wuhuan Khan was secretly surprised that Yu Manhe's team was no less than his elites, and was defeated so badly under Zhang Beichen! Could it be that the cavalry of Yan State is really so strong?
The Great Shanyu Daji was also solemn in his heart. He could not guarantee that his personal guard would be able to defeat the people trained by Zhang Beichen.
If Yan State really had so many powerful cavalry, then Donghu would be in danger!
Yu Manhe lost, feeling both ashamed and angry. He said to Daji: "Da Shanyu, this person must not be kept! If he is alive, he will definitely become a big trouble for my Donghu!"
Daji looked at Zhang Beichen, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Zhang Beichen was calm and said, "Da Shanyu, now I am in Donghu, and this cavalry has also been trained for Donghu."
"Besides, the generals of Yan State have already mastered my training methods. Now that I have no benefit in killing me, I might as well let me serve the Great Shanyu and train cavalry!"
"Donghu is not short of excellent knights. As long as there are powerful cavalry, it is not impossible to annex the Huns and go south to the Central Plains!"
Daji was very moved, and the staff advised: "Master, that's true. It's a pity to kill him!"
Daji laughed and said, "Is this king a narrow-minded person? Zhang Beichen, he has trained very well! I will be rewarded!"
"From now on, you will serve as my commander and train cavalry for me!"
"Yes!" Zhang Beichen has successfully entered the Donghu.
As for helping Donghu train cavalry, he will of course train, but it will be hard to say who this cavalry will fight in the future. Maybe they will hit their own people?
Zhang Beichen settled down in Dongju like this.
...
In Yan State, Yan Qingdian finished his court.
The ministers reported that since Zhang Beichen went to Donghu, the Donghu people have never invaded the territory again.
Yan Qingwu couldn't help but miss Zhang Beichen a little, although Zhang Beichen has always been unruly to her and is a little cheap.
But he was not around, and it seemed that he had lost a lot of fun.
"Zhang Beichen must be suffering at this time, right?" Yan Qingwu thought that the barren land like Donghu had harsh conditions.
Moreover, the Donghu people were vicious. As a hostage to the enemy country, Zhang Beichen must have suffered humiliation in Donghu!
When Yan Qingwu thought of this, she felt very upset.
"I shouldn't have sent Zhang Beichen as a hostage!"
"Donghu, I must destroy you!"
...
At this time, countries have begun to enter a period of rapid expansion.
The Qin State had already taken over the surrounding Rongdi tribes and was competing with the Wei State for the territory of Yiqu State.
South Korea and Zhao also conquered small countries such as Zhongshan and Song.
This time, the King of Chu first destroyed Yue Kingdom to prevent the previous demonic path from appearing again.
The State of Qi was in civil strife and split into two states of Qi.
...
Time flies and another year passes.
During this year, Zhang Beichen trained cavalry for the Great Shanyu in Donghu, and made some achievements. The strength of the Donghu cavalry indeed increased greatly and began to pose a threat to the Huns.
For the time being, Donghu has no energy to invade Yan State.
Because the Xiongnu Shanyu Maotai was rising rapidly, it had already threatened the security of Donghu.
There are two key territories here.
One is the Kruren Valley occupied by the Donghu people, and the other is the Turle Valley occupied by the Huns.
Nomadic peoples live by following the water and grass. These two places are lush and lush. Both sides covet each other's territory and often fight.
Both sides built a large number of Otuo in the valley, a kind of earthen castle used to defend.
It can be said that as long as you occupy the other party’s valley, you can have rich resources and completely subvert the opponent.
Last time, Daji asked Maotai to pay tribute to him. Although Maotai agreed, the tribute was reduced a lot.
Now, Daji has focused all his attention on Mao Tai and is not in the mood to care about Yan State.
After all, Yan State still has to face the Central Plains countries, and the Huns are on the edge of Donghu, threatening the Donghu base camp!
...
Zhang Beichen has been looking for a way to split Donghu. In more than a year, he really found it.
The interests of the three major tribes of Donghu are unevenly distributed, which is an unignited powder barrel.
At present, Daji's tribe is too strong and no problems can be found for the time being.
We can only start with the two tribes of Wuhuan and Xianbei.
Although the Wuhuan and Xianbei tribes have always had conflicts, they are not as good as wars.
Zhang Beichen really discovered a blind spot.
The Khan of Wuhuan mentioned before that his daughter was born beautiful and was known as the number one beauty in Donghu. Even the Great Khan Daji had always been thinking about it.
Zhang Beichen discovered that the Great Khan Daji was thinking about the daughter of Wuhuan Khan, not only coveting her beauty, but because Wuhuan Khan Hao Zhen, he had no son!
This means that as long as you marry his daughter, you can legitimately annex the Wuhuan tribe!
Not only Daji thinks so, but also the Xianbei Khan Yu Manhe thinks so, so he proposes marriage to Hao Zhen many times, hoping to marry his daughter. Hao Zhen always believes that his daughter is now the saint of Wuhuan and has not yet arrived to marry. Rejected on age.
The Wuhuan tribe and the Xianbei tribe all have their own sacred mountains, namely the Wuhuan Mountain and the Xianbei Mountain.
Zhang Beichen was very effective in training troops for the Great Shanyu. In addition, Wuhuan Shanyu had a good relationship with him, so he was able to freely enter the territory of the Wuhuan tribe.
At the foot of Wuhuan Mountain, Zhang Beichen came on a horse.
He shouted loudly at the foot of the mountain: "Ziyi, I'm here!"
The sound echoed in the valley. After a while, Zhang Beichen heard the silver bell ringing, and saw a purple figure riding a red horse running towards him.
On the horse's back was a girl in purple. She had healthy wheat-colored skin, no trace of fat on her calves and waist, and she had a smart skill, and she had a long and thin braid and danced with the wind.
This is the daughter of Wuhuan Khan Hao Zhen, Hao Ziyi.
She looks light and agile, but she also has a bit of wild aura. These two feelings are not at all contradictory to her, but instead have a unique beauty.
"Brother Beichen, what good things do you bring to me this time?" Hao Ziyi rushed to Zhang Beichen, turned over and dismounted, and asked expectantly.
Hao Ziyi was ordered by her father to live near Wuhuan Mountain and had never had the chance to go out, so she was very curious about things outside.
In particular, she often heard her father say that the Central Plains is a prosperous place, where there are more treasures and new things than the grasslands.
Zhang Beichen, a person from Zhongyuan, naturally became her channel for contact with the outside world.
Zhang Beichen took out an iron short sword from his bag and said, "This is the iron sword from the Central Plains, you can try it."
At this time, Donghu was using bronze ware, and they did not have the iron smelting technology yet.
Hao Ziyi held the iron sword, waved it a few times, and said in surprise: "So light!"
"And it can be sharp!" Zhang Beichen asked her to find a tree and tried it, and it was true.
Hao Ziyi said happily: "Thank you, Brother Beichen! Ziyi also has a gift for you!"
As she said that, she took out an exquisite bone whistle from her bag and said, "This is made from the bones of monsters. She also prayed specifically to the Wuhuan Mountain God to give spiritual power to Lord God!"
"Brother Beichen, as long as you are near Wuhuan Mountain, I can hear this bone whistle!"
Zhang Beichen took the bone whistle and thanked him the same.
Next, he accompanied Hao Ziyi to play.
As an old driver, he is very capable of facing an innocent and romantic girl like Hao Ziyi.
Before he knew it, Hao Ziyi regarded him as her caring brother.
Of course, the Xianbei Chanyu Yu Manhe often made excuses to see Hao Ziyi, and Hao Ziyi didn't like him at all.
Yu Manhe always thought he was very manly, but he didn't know that the smell of his frequent non-showing makes Hao Ziyi feel uncomfortable when he sees him.
So Yu Manhe has been defeated by Hao Ziyi.
[Spring goes and autumn comes, Hao Ziyi is about to become an adult. According to the clan rules, the Wuhuan tribe will hold an adult ceremony for her and will also marry her out.]
