Chapter 811: The Forest Department (First Update)
What is the world?
The world is a big net.
In the center of this large web, seven of the most powerful spiders are fighting to the death, and whether any two of them are fighting, the whole web will tremble with it, so that all the other spiders will notice the movement.
In such a situation, the other spiders usually choose to intervene decisively, and once they find that any spider is becoming stronger, they will rush at the spider in unison, tearing at the flesh of the spider, making the spider as thin as they are.
But as time passed, the spiders suddenly discovered one day in great horror that a super spider had appeared.
Even if the other six spiders are combined, they are no match for this super spider.
After beating all the spiders, the super spider finally eliminated the first spider, and then moved on to another spider hiding far away from the edge of the spider's web, trying to completely destroy the second spider as well.
But what the super spider didn't notice was that at the edge of this huge spider web, there were other places that it couldn't notice, and some kind of fluctuation was quietly producing something that it didn't like very much.
There are many tribes on the long northern border of the Yan Kingdom, one of which is a relatively large tribe with tens of thousands of cavalry called the Shan Lin Division.
Since Qin Kai, the general of the Yan Kingdom, defeated the Donghu decades ago, the Donghu people were forced to retreat north to the Shalamulun River and even further north, where they began a long period of recuperation.
It was at this time that the forest department rose up and occupied this grassland.
These years have not been too easy for Donghu, they have the Xiongnu in the west and the Yan State in the south, which is not a neighbor to mess with.
Therefore, even if some of their territory is occupied by the forest department, the Donghu people who are so angry that they can only turn a blind eye to this choice.
Anyway, there are many pastures in the vast grassland, so he went with him.
It was under such circumstances that the forest department slowly developed and grew in the gap between several forces.
On this day, the patriarch of the Silin tribe suddenly gathered all the warriors in the tribe and lined up in front of his tribe's camp, as if waiting for someone.
On this point, it is natural that some people have raised their own questions.
Then the patriarch replied to his doubtful clansmen in this way: "What we are waiting for now is the master of the Monan steppe, the Xiongnu Shan Yu. ”
A general of the Silin tribe couldn't help but speak: "King, the current Huns are not what they used to be, they have been split into two parts and are attacking each other, do we really have to take this Huns seriously?" ”
The Patriarch of Lan Lin smiled and said, "Although it is true that Du Longqi that idiot doesn't need to be bothered, but this time it is Xian Shan Shan Yu who has come!" Now in the entire prairie, who doesn't know that Xianshan has the support of Zhao people behind him? We can't afford to mess with Zhao Guo. ”
A cloud of smoke appeared from far away on the horizon, which was a signal for the arrival of the cavalry.
The Patriarch of the Lan Lin soon met Xianshan.
Xianshan smiled and said, "After so many years, the patriarch is still so powerful. ”
The patriarch laughed loudly and said, "I haven't seen you for so many years, but the eldest prince of the Aries tribe has become the master of this grassland, please." ”
A banquet was then held in the tent of the patriarch of the forest.
The grassland people are very heroic when they drink, so soon everyone has a little bit of alcohol.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the Patriarch of Lan Lin waved away the others and smiled at Xianshan: "Shan Yu came all the way here, shouldn't it be just to have a drink with me?" ”
Xianshan smiled slightly, and said to the patriarch of the Lan Lin in front of him: "What the patriarch said is very true, since the patriarch is so quick to speak, then I won't talk nonsense." The reason why I came this time was mainly to hope that the Lan Lin tribe could join the Zhao State and help the Zhao State attack the Yan State together. ”
The patriarch looked Xianshan up and down, and said with a smile: "I have long heard that Shan Yu has now become a courtier of the Zhao people, and it seems that the rumors are true." ”
Xianshan's face remained unchanged, and he said to the Patriarch of Yulin: "The Zhao State is now the most powerful country in the world, and it is not a shameful thing to submit to the Zhao State. ”
The smile on the face of the Patriarch of the Lan Lin disappeared, and he suddenly snorted heavily, and said, "We people of the grassland should yearn for freedom, and we should not grovel and live under the faces of others!" ”
Hearing this, Xian Shan suddenly burst out laughing, and said to the Patriarch of Lan Lin in front of him, "Patriarch, this joke you said is really interesting. For a long time, many tribes on our steppe have been fighting endlessly, and it has always been the weak who grovel at the feet of the strong, so what freedom is there at all? ”
"I can assure you here that if you are willing to lead the tens of thousands of people and cavalry under your command to defect to the Zhao State, your Lanlin tribe will become a part of the Zhao State Border Cavalry Legion, responsible for guarding this place for the Zhao State. In addition, Zhao Guo will also provide you with help, such as clothing, food, iron tools, and so on. ”
The Lan Lin patriarch was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It is impossible for the people of the Zhao country to only give us benefits without any constraints, right?" ”
Xianshan smiled and said, "The patriarch is really smart, of course these help are conditional." First of all, the Zarin clan must pay tribute to 500 fine war horses every year. Secondly, once a war broke out in the Zhao State, then the Sulin clan must send warriors south to help the Zhao State fight. In the end, the Zhao State sent officials to govern the Monan Grassland, and the Lamin clan must completely obey the orders from the officials of the Zhao State and must not disobey any of them. ”
The Patriarch of the Lan Lin Clan was silent for a long time, and then spoke: "If I agree to this condition, then the first thing I should do should be to immediately lead the cavalry of our Lan Lin tribe south to attack the Yan Kingdom, right?" ”
Xianshan nodded, then smiled, "This is actually a good opportunity, isn't it?" After all, your Lanlin tribe can gain a lot of merits by attacking the Yan Kingdom, and these feats will help the Lanlin tribe to firmly take root in the territory of the Zhao State, and even hope to become a major force in the Zhao State in the future. ”
Patriarch Lan Lin laughed, shook his head, and said very firmly: "I'm sorry Shan Yu, although your conditions sound very good, but I have to refuse your request." ”
Xian Shan looked at the Lan Lin Patriarch in front of him in great surprise and asked, "Patriarch, why is this?" ”
The Lan Lin Patriarch sighed and said: "I know the people of Zhao very well, this is a country that is as barbaric as us in our bones, once our Lan Lin tribe surrenders to Zhao State, then sooner or later we will be completely eaten by the hungry wolf of Zhao State like Lin Hu and Lou Fu." So, I have to reject your offer. ”
After hearing this, Xianshan couldn't help but sigh and said, "So, is the patriarch determined to go against Zhao Guo?" ”
The Lan Lin patriarch nodded and said: "That's right, although the Yan State is much weaker than the Zhao State, but the Yan State is the suitable suzerain of our Lan Lin Tribe, because submission is acceptable to the Yan State, but what the Zhao State wants is annexation!" Since Shan Yu insists on serving the Zhao Kingdom, then when you come here, stay in my tent for a few more days, and after a few days, I will send someone to send you to Jidu, and use your head to show the loyalty of our Yulin tribe to the Yan Kingdom! ”
As soon as the words of the Patriarch of the Lanlin clan fell, several warriors of the Lanlin clan appeared in an instant and surrounded Xian Shan.
Xian Shan raised the wine in front of him without changing his face and drank it down, and then sighed softly: "This is really a pity. ”
The patriarch shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Take him down for me!" ”
It was at this time that a heavy sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the camp, and fierce shouts of killing also resounded throughout the camp.
All this made the Patriarch of Lan Lin suddenly shocked, stood up, and shouted, "What the hell is going on? ”
Xianshan sat on the spot and looked at the Lan Lin patriarch in front of him with a smile, as if he was looking at a dying prey: "I have been living in the land of Zhao for all these years, and I have studied the culture and books of the people of Zhao State. In a book, I learned four words, and that is to salute before soldiers. Since you are unwilling to agree to submit to Zhao and become a part of Zhao, then we can only solve this problem by force. ”
Hearing this, the patriarch of the Lan Lin was shocked and shouted, "Kill him!" ”
But at the moment when the words of the Patriarch of the Shan Lin fell, several figures rushed into the big tent, and with a few screams, several of the Patriarch of the Shan Lin Patriarch were instantly killed and injured.
The patriarch was so shocked by this sudden turn that he was about to rush out of the tent to escape, when suddenly a crossbow arrow shot in from the door of the tent and hit him in the chest.
Xianshan looked at the corpse of the Lan Lin patriarch on the ground, stood up with a very calm face, and walked out of the big tent surrounded by several guards.
At this moment, the entire camp of the Lanlin tribe has become a pot of porridge, and the coalition army composed of 20,000 Zhao and Xiongnu cavalry galloped left and right in the camp of the Lanlin tribe, killing the unprepared Lanlin people and crushing the army.
The battle came and ended quickly, and after half an hour, there was no one left in the camp of the Clan.
Those who dared to resist were all killed, and the rest fell to their knees in fear, waiting for the victors to deal with them.
There was a sound of horses' hooves, and then a general of Zhao appeared in front of Xianshan, who did not dare to slack off, and bowed to the general of Zhao in front of him: "Xianshan has seen the governor of Dadu." ”
The person who came was Li Mu.
I saw Li Mu nodding at Xianshan and said, "Are there any other tribes?" ”
Xian Shan smiled very happily and said, "Back to the Grand Dudu, this Lanlin tribe is already the largest tribe within a radius of a hundred miles in the vicinity, as long as this tribe is settled, no tribe will be able to cause any obstacles to our attack on the Yan Kingdom." ”
Li Mu nodded and said, "Very good, in that case, then you can continue to sweep this area with your Hun cavalry, and you will also be responsible for bringing these people back from the Lan Lin clan." ”
Xian Shan smiled slightly, turned his head to look at the unsmiling Judge Zhao Guojun standing beside him, and then said: "Although the Metropolitan Governor is relieved to go to conquer the Yan Kingdom, Xian Shan is here to wish the Metropolitan Governor success!" ”
