A month later, the news of Touman Shanyu's murder finally spread throughout the grassland. For a time, the entire grassland was panicked, no matter which tribe.
North of Wolf Court, near Beihai.
In the Hedu tribe's tent, Heda looked at Hedu Ye and Sha Linmu in horror.
"Prince Heda, Shanyu is dead, what do you want to do?" Hedu also looked at Heda with contempt as if he was a villain.
Heda couldn't stop trembling all over and said tremblingly: "Chief of Hedu, our common enemy is the Qin people. I am willing to be your slave and fight against the Northern Hu and Qin people for you."
Hedu didn't laugh at him, it was meaningless.
After a long silence, looking at Heda's trembling legs, Hedu also said: "In this case, I allow you to become my slave. From today on, I am Hedu Shanyu, as long as you surrender under my feet , I will avenge Touman Shanyu."
Heda lowered his head, bent down deeply, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you to Hedu Shanyu, the villain must be on the front and back of the horse!"
Hedu also waved his hand: "Go out and feed my horses."
He Dazhan retreated tremblingly, the coldness deep in his eyes well hidden by him.
Shalin Mu thought for a while, raised his head and said: "Chanyu, now that Touman Chanyu is dead, why should we keep him? After all, he is a hidden danger."
Hedu also smiled slightly: "Now that Touman is dead, the most lush grassland of the Xiongnu is occupied by the barbarians, we must get back Langting as soon as possible. Under the banner of avenging Touman, who among the grassland tribes dares to disobey?"
Sha Linmu suddenly understood, nodded and complimented: "The Chanyu is extremely wise, and as long as the Chanyu continues to lead the Xiongnu, we will definitely defeat the Qin and Hu people!"
But he was wondering in his heart: "When will Hedu Ye, this reckless bull, start using his brain to think about things?" '
Hedu also laughed loudly and said: "Brother Salin, you and I have been brothers for many years. You don't have to call me Shanyu from now on. It doesn't sound comfortable!"
Sha Linmu said hurriedly: "I dare not, the Chanyu is the Chanyu, how can we not talk about respect and inferiority?"
Hedu didn't hesitate anymore: "Now that Touman is dead, I and I are the only ones in control of the Huns. Come on, keep drinking. I haven't been this happy for a long time!"
The two of them drank until it was getting late. Shalinmu had long refused to go back to the tribe to end the drinking game, but Hedu also dragged him to drink. Unknowingly, Salimu and Hedu also fell to the ground drunk.
Seeing that the two of them were drunk, someone walked into the tent and ordered the guards to carry Salin Mu out.
Heda, who was feeding the horse, saw Salin Mu being dragged out. The guards he brought had long since disappeared. He lowered his head and raised his mouth slightly: "Hey, let's fight! Hedu, it's your turn next! "
The next day, Shalinmu's body was covered with arrows from the Qin army and was carried back to Shalin.
Shalin Mu's death immediately caused an uproar in the northeastern part of the grassland. Several large tribes in the Shalin tribe accused Hedu of killing Shalinmu, and then blamed it on the Qin people, threatening to make Hedu pay with blood. For a time, the two tribes were at war with each other.
When Hedu heard about it, he immediately called Heda in and shouted angrily: "Heda! Is this your plan? Now Shalinmu is dead, but the Shalin tribe has assembled 30,000 cavalry, and they want me to Hedu Department will pay the price! Could it be that you deceived me?"
Just as Salinmu thought, with Heduye's character, the first thing he thought about after Touman died was not how to get back Langting, but how he couldn't wait to ascend to the throne as Shanyu.
Originally, Hedu also asked Salinmu to come here just for Shan Yu.
But just the night before Salimmu arrived, Heda suddenly jumped out and persuaded Hedu to wait for the opportunity to kill Salimmu first, complete the unification of the north, and then take back the Wolf Court under the banner of revenge for Touman. , in this way, you will be able to respond to hundreds of calls on the grassland.
Hedu is also reckless, but not stupid. Although Heda's plan sounds like a good idea, his previous attitude towards him was that he wanted to eat his flesh and sleep with his skin. How could he be so kind to give him advice?
Heda's answer to him was: First of all, now that Touman, Multie, and Wanda are dead, the only person on the grassland who can become a chanyu is Heduye. If he wants to avenge Touman, only Hedu can help him.
Secondly, it is impossible for anyone to support me as a Shanyu if I lead my troops twice, once with no success and once with the entire army annihilated. Moreover, there is a very capable brother Maodun who is eyeing him, so he can only choose to support Hedu and become a chanyu.
After hearing this, Hedu still had doubts. Not all the Shalin tribe were fools. What if the Shalin tribe didn't believe that Shalin Mu was killed by the Qin army?
Heda even said that there was no need to worry. The Qin army had just plundered Langting, and even Touman Chanyu had been captured and killed in Xianyang. Isn't it a piece of cake to kill a Shalinmu?
Hedu also thought about it for a long time and felt that it was indeed a good idea, so he immediately followed the plan.
But now the Salin Department really doesn't believe it, and the reaction is so big. Isn't this pushing yourself into a pit of fire?
Heda heard the words and said respectfully: "Don't panic, the Shanyu of Hedu. The response of the Salin Department is indeed beyond my expectation, but there is no need to worry at all."
Hedu also frowned: "Why don't you worry?"
Heda said cautiously: "Hedu Chanyu, now you have 40,000 elite cavalry, while the Shalin tribe only has 30,000 weak cavalry. Although it is said to be 30,000, I think it is not even 20,000."
"You might as well send people to spread the word that several large tribes of the Shalin tribe have long been interested in replacing the leader of Shalin. Therefore, they have to ignore the critical moment when the leader of Shalin has just died, Touman Chanyu has been killed, and the Huns have lost all south of Langting. , can’t wait to fight for the position of Shanyu. In this way, we can directly send troops to annex the Shalin tribe, it’s as easy as a piece of cake!”
Hedu also said coldly: "People from the Salin Department may not necessarily support me becoming a Shanyu!"
Heda didn't care at all about Hedu Ye's attitude and continued: "Hedu Chanyu, everyone will support you. This Chanyu position belongs to you!"
"Oh? Why?"
Heda smiled slightly: "Because you have me in your hands, Touman Shanyu's son, Heda!"
Hedu also suddenly realized: "You mean to use your name to make them think that Touman Chanyu is here for me?"
Heda nodded: "Hedu Chanyu Yingming!"
I have long scolded Hedu in my heart: 'You idiot, you finally understand. I really don't know why Hedu chose you to be the leader! '
Hedu didn't have a long memory at all. After hearing Heda's words, he was overjoyed: "Okay! Don't worry, Heda. As long as I'm here, I will guarantee your prosperity and wealth throughout your life!"
After saying that, he couldn't wait to organize his army and spread rumors.
Half a month later, Hedu also led a mighty force of 40,000 to the Shalin Department.
Two days later, Hedu returned to Hedu with only one arm left, and only more than 10,000 of the 40,000-strong army came back alive. On the other hand, the Shalin tribe had almost all their troops. Although they also suffered heavy casualties, they managed to save their grassland.
After coming back, Hedu immediately raised his sword to find trouble with Heda, but was told that Heda took his own sword and claimed to collect grain and grass, and rode his horse to the west at high speed. Only then did Hedu remember that he was in a hurry to leave that day and actually left He Da alone in his tent...
