The Hetao Plain, also known as the Hejian.

The mother river of the Zhuxia nation, the Yellow River winds a zigzag bend here.

For millions of years, the continuous erosion of the Yellow River has made this place the most fertile land and the most beautiful pasture on the grassland for more than 1,000 miles.

When the Qin Empire was strong, 300,000 troops were stationed here, and 30,000 families were relocated at the same time.

The Qin people built water conservancy projects here, built city fortresses, and set up smelting workshops.

At one time, this place was far and wide, and the wheat show was gradually, and the grass millet oil became the land of fish and rice in the north.

However, with the fall of the Qin Empire.

All this was wiped out in the flames of war and the smoke of gunfire.

The Huns, who were driven away by the Qin, rode back on horseback.

They don't know how to produce and they don't know how to farm.

They have little to offer but to enslave and subjugate others.

As a result, the fortress built by the Qin people collapsed and was buried in the grass.

The workshops, workshops, and weeds they built were abandoned and frantically thrived in these formerly bustling centers of handicraft until they were completely engulfed and disintegrated.

The water conservancy facilities and channels built by the Qin people have long been buried in loess and have disappeared.

Occasionally, herders find one or two bricks and tiles inscribed with traces of the Qin people in some forgotten places.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything.

After the Battle of Pingcheng, Lu Xuan, the king of Yan from the Han Dynasty, and Han Wangxin, as well as Chen Xuan, Zhao Li and other losers, fled to the Xiongnu with their troops.

Among these people, there is Lu Xuan, who was named the king of Donghu by the Xiongnu Mao Dunshan Yu.

Lu Juan fled to the Huns that year and brought thousands of people with him.

Lu Juan and his rebels. Therefore, it became the Xiongnu Empire, one of the few tribes that cultivated and nomadic at the same time.

They will graze. But the farming techniques are not bad.

At the very least, in the territory of the Donghu tribe of the Lu family. They repurposed the infrastructure left behind by the Qin and dug several new channels for irrigation, where they remain until now.

However, all this, ends there.

At this moment, this territory of Donghubu, which used to be full of houses and wilderness, is already a hell on earth.

Thousands of barbarian cavalry. In this stuffed paradise of the past, there is no evil.

They kill men, **** women, and even children.

As for the houses and tents that were originally built on the grassland, at this moment, they have been ignited by a raging fire.

King Hujie smiled and watched all this with his own one eye, and blood kept dripping down his hands.

"King Lu of Donghu is dead!" He raised his head in the air and announced to his tribe: "Tell the Xiuzhi." All those who surrender, kneel and do not kill! ”

Xiuzhi is the meaning of army in the Hujie language.

Just like his own name, translated into Chinese, it actually means the commander of the army.

Hujie language. It is a language that they developed after decades of taking root in Jinshan and communicating with the local kingdom of the Western Regions.

Hundreds of years later, the Book of Jin recorded a proverb of the Shi Zhao regime: Xiuzhi replaced Ergang. The valley is bald.

It means to send an army and capture Liu Yao.

Later generations of archaeologists and historians based on this statement. The language of Shi Zhao and his ancestors, the Hujie tribe, is analyzed.

After studying the languages of hundreds of peoples that have appeared in China or around the world, archaeologists and historians will look at the languages of the Hujie and Shizhao peoples. They belong to the Turkic language family and are believed to be the distant ancestors of the Uighurs.

At least in terms of language, yes.

But in fact, at least for the time being, the appearance and lineage of the Hujie people had nothing to do with the Uighurs.

They are multi-ethnic.

They were a mixture of ancient Indian Aryans and ancient Tungusic peoples, as well as ancient Sogdians.

In the view of the Han family, it is a hybrid of the Cypriots, the Huns and the Kangju!

Therefore, they have not only the thick and short body and strong body of the Huns, but also the brown eyes and various hair colors of the ancient Aryans, as well as some characteristics of the Kangju people.

For example, the tribe no longer practices the traditional shamanism of the Xiongnu.

They converted to Zoroastrianism, which had come from far and wide.

Fire, in the life of the Hujie people, became sacred and important.

At the same time, the Hujie people also learned to farm.

In their homes at the foot of the Golden Mountain, there were many slaves who cultivated the land.

Although the technology is primitive, farming is very inefficient.

But compared to the nomadic life that depends on the weather for food, which may not be able to eat enough, farming can at least feed more people.

This is also the biggest change made by the Hujie people after moving west.

Their way of life has changed from the nomadic herding of their ancestors to semi-nomadic and semi-agrarian.

At this moment, I saw the perfect water conservancy facilities inside and outside the Donghu tribe, countless ditches and grain piled up in granaries.

And he knew that the population of this tribe was very important to him and his tribe.

As long as these people are obtained, it is likely that in the future, the Hujie people will no longer need to worry about hunger.

At the same time, he also turned his gaze to the south curiously.

He knew that at the foot of the Great Wall in the south, there was the mother country of the Donghu tribe in front of him, the Han Dynasty that defeated the Zhelan tribe!

"I have long heard that the Han Dynasty was rich and prosperous, the whole country was farming, and tens of millions of people were raised on tens of thousands of miles of land......," and he sighed in his heart: "If one day, I can lead the army south to rob and loot the Han Dynasty!" ”

If you can grab back to the south, just the looted population will be enough to support the Hujie tribe.

Pity......

He shook his head.

Now, the Han Dynasty in the south is no longer powerful.

Now, the news of Yin Zhixian's defeat has spread all over the grassland.

Some people even said conclusively that they saw with their own eyes that the army of the Han Dynasty carried Zhelan and Baiyang and the captives of the Right Xian King to the south, and the captured cavalry was defeated and strung with ropes by the Han Dynasty. Stretching for dozens of miles.

And the war horses, cattle and sheep captured by the Han Dynasty are all over the mountains. I don't know how to count.

With such a powerful empire, it is no longer something that he and his people can make up their minds.

That's what I'm thinking. Suddenly, on the grassland in the distance, galloped and rode a few times.

"Who is the king of Hujie!" A knight who led the gallop asked loudly in Xiongnu language: "I am the Sima of Yunzhong County of the Great Han Dynasty, and I am ordered by the county guard of Yunzhong County of the Great Han Dynasty and the Duke of Wei to order the king of Hujie, obey the order quickly, and stop all killing and plundering." Immediately release all the captives of the Donghu tribe, and wait for the decision of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty and your country Shan Yu! ”

And he frowned, shook his head incredulously, and said in his heart: "Looking for death?" ”

How can you spit out the meat that reaches your mouth?

Besides, why did the Han Dynasty take care of him? How could he manage him?

However, the next second, he was stunned.

Because he saw a familiar figure - Shan Yu's dog legs, and the left general Hu Yan was Tu. He also rode his horse to the left and right of the Han rider, and said loudly to him: "King Hujie obeys the order, this is Shan Yu's order, stop killing immediately!" Collect the captives. Waiting for Shan Yu's order! ”

When he heard this, he was immediately angry.

Others are afraid of Hu Yan as Tu, when he is afraid of a hair!

Alone in the military ministers. Now that he can't protect himself, why should he interfere with him?

Moreover. The one who ordered to leave the chickens and dogs of the Donghu tribe was also his military minister.

Good guys, bad guys. It's all done by Shan Yu.

What's the use of asking him to be a member of the Clan? (Now, Yin Zhixie's death has been confirmed, and he automatically considers himself a descendant of the Zodiac clan.) ）

"Xiuzhi obey orders: ......" and raised his hand and ordered angrily: "Keep killing, don't stop, I see what the Han Dynasty can do to me?" ”

Perennial at the foot of the Golden Mountain, fighting with the alien races of the West.

Hujie people have long developed the habit of being unruly.

In the past, Shan Yuting was powerful, but he could barely restrain and order the Hujie tribe.

But now?

Xiang can't wipe his own buttocks clean, and he still wants to care about what the warriors do?

More importantly, he needs to be tough enough to win the support of the Sulpping Clan and the four major clans.

And he and his father have been away from Shan Yuting's decision-making center for too long.

It's been a long time, and now there is no one for him in Shan Yuting.

And in the Xiongnu Empire, a tough leader, an iron-fisted leader, always got support.

But he didn't think about another problem - he is certainly not afraid of the Han Dynasty now.

His lair is tens of thousands of miles away from the border of the world, and the Han Dynasty people can't reach it at all, and the Hujie people have never dealt with the Han Dynasty in the south, and in their concept, the Han Dynasty is probably similar to the Kangju in the West and the former Wusun and Yueshi.

Strong is strong, but also limited.

However, King Kun and King Hutu don't see it that way.

After seeing the Han cavalry, they immediately ordered to stop killing and looting.

Their nest is on the Han-Hungarian border, which offends the Han Dynasty, but it's not good!

As the saying goes, stay a line in life, and see each other in the future.

Now, the Han Dynasty has shown its strength in the battle of Mayi.

The invincible King of Zhelan was captured, and the headquarters of the powerful Right Xian King was also annihilated, and even the King of Lou Fu was surrendered.

In the hands of the Han Dynasty, there are now nearly 20,000 prisoners of war.

Every tribe on the steppe knows that prisoners of war have another name - the Iron Army!

It's not just Chinese who know that the second devil is more terrible than the devil.

Nomads know this truth better.

After the defeat and capture, the tribal cavalry, in order to survive, in order to get rid of their slave status, in order to prove to the new master that they have indeed broken with the past.

They will be more active than everyone else in killing their own people and compatriots.

And the headquarters of Zhelan, Lou Fu, Bai Yang and Yin Zhixian are already the most elite cavalry of the Xiongnu in the south of the Munan.

Now, these cavalry have been spawned with a buff called 'For the Master'.

It is conceivable that if he offended the Han Dynasty, the emperor of the Han Dynasty would be angry, even if he just released those prisoners of war, it would be enough to turn the entire Munan upside down.

What's more, in the first battle of Mayi, the Huns still don't know how the Han Dynasty defeated the coalition army commanded by Yin Zhixian.

They only knew that all the south-invading tribes, including Zhelan, were defeated by the cavalry of the Han Dynasty.

The Zhelan tribe was still crushed by the Han cavalry after launching the decisive charge that they relied on to become famous.

The unknown is the most terrifying.

Now, there are already rumors in the steppe.

It is said that the emperor of the Han Dynasty invited the gods, and the gods shook the earth and mountains, first blocked Yin Zhixian's way back, and then when Zhelan charged, thunder fell from the sky, and killed the charging Zhelan cavalry, so that they trampled on each other in panic, and then they were defeated.

Some people even came up with conclusive evidence: the Han people have a book called "Poems", which records that hundreds of years ago, the Son of Heaven of the Zhou Dynasty invited the gods to send down great power to help him win.

The so-called: Xu Fang was shocked, Xu Fang was shocked, like thunder, Xu Fang was shocked.

A thousand years ago, the Chinese emperors of the Xia and Shang dynasties spoke directly to God, asking God to teach him how to govern the country, and God generously responded to the requests of these sons of heaven by sending down auspicious and auspicious signs.

made the wind and rain in China at that time smooth, the country and the people were safe, and no punishment was used for hundreds of years.

Obviously, these messy rumors and myths were carefully planned and instigated by the Huns of the embroidered guard.

But the point is, the Huns don't know.

In these rumors, which are true and false, half-true, and even mixed with fantasy novels and fairy tales, the Xiongnu country, especially the tribes in the south of the Munan, can only be said to be panicked.

In their minds and thinking, an invincible army like Zhelan was defeated, and not even a single one escaped.

It's not a god descending to earth, so what is it?

Moreover, what is even more terrifying is that the hussar general of the Han Dynasty deliberately released one hundred and twenty captured Hun slaves and returned to the grassland to report the news, these slaves were all Zhelan slaves who were captured in the battle of Wuzhou.

These slaves are basically guys who are frightened by the cuirass and have a broken heart.

Yizong feels that raising them is also a waste of food, and it is better to use waste.

And these slaves did not live up to the 'good intentions' of righteousness.

Spread the strength and invincibility of the Han army everywhere on the grassland, and deified the cuirassiers.

Everyone is three feet tall and three feet wide at the waist, riding horses like mountains and holding huge weapons, which can kill a bunch of people in one sweep.

And as soon as I asked about the specific situation, these guys immediately went crazy.

Their performance further deepened the fear and unease of the Makunan clan towards the Han family.

Now, to this day, there is no Makunan clan who dare to show off their might in front of the envoys of the Han Dynasty.

Even, many tribes have experienced subtle psychological changes.

Especially the two tribes of Hutu and Kunxie.

King Xiu Tu and King Kun even discussed in private: Do you want to establish contact with the Han Dynasty?

They can't be blamed for that.

It's really that they are too close to Yunzhong County of the Han Dynasty.

Plugged out from the clouds, the cavalry of the Han army will be able to reach the heart of the Hetao in a few days and go to their lair for sightseeing.

And King Hutu and King Kun Evil thought that they would not be able to defeat Zhelan and destroy Yin Zhixian's Han army no matter what.

In this case, of course, it is necessary to contact as soon as possible so that you can plan for the future in advance.

In case, the Huns' ship fails, then they can also change their masters, continue to be powerful, and be the king and hegemon! (To be continued.) )
