The protagonist stood at a high place not far from "Sitong City" and watched the commanders below gathered in units of legions to communicate with each other because of the controversial order he had just issued. , the entire Divine Envoy King Army no longer had the scene in the past where the protagonist gave an order and the three armies followed, but the protagonist had already expected it.

After all, this is the first time that the protagonist orders them to attack their original kin. Even if the protagonist has received ideological education before, he cannot guarantee that every commander will obey him.

Moreover, the news from the main nest "Qingqiu City" will more or less spread to "Dongyang City". The protagonist is not unaware that the messengers traveling between the two places, in addition to looking for him, have also come into contact with many male ants. .

Seeing that the chaotic scene could not be calmed down in a short time, the protagonist then asked the messenger to convey the latest instruction to all commanders: Commanders who do not agree with the order of the God Envoy King can nominate a representative to present the order to the God Envoy King. Express an opinion.

This order soon bore fruit, and a more senior team commander was elected and came to the protagonist.

What makes the protagonist more gratified is that several of his important ministers, such as Gun and Lan Bofei, did not accept the recommendation of the doubtful male ants and refused to come as representatives to confront the God Envoy King.

The protagonist has the impression that the male ant in front of him is a male ant from the main nest "Qingqiu City". When the protagonist first obtained the identity of the God Envoy King, he joined the protagonist as the commander of the supplementary troops, and he also He became a veteran who followed the protagonist in the war of reconquest, the war against parasitic ants, and the north bank of the river.

The protagonist is not a person who is nostalgic, but the commanders from the main nest do have conflicts of ideas and interests with himself and other commanders of the Angel King Legion.

This conflict was not deadly before, but it is now.

The protagonist looks at the male ant in front of him as if he were looking at a dead person. At this moment, the name of a historical figure appeared in his mind. This figure did not leave any records about his appearance, but he taught the world an idiom - killing chickens to scare monkeys.

This person is Modun Shanyu.

Maodun, leader of the Xiongnu, and member of the Luotang clan. He killed his father in 209 BC (the first year of Qin II) and became independent. During his reign, Modun Chanyu unified the northern grasslands for the first time and established a huge and powerful Xiongnu Empire. He was a talented strategist and military commander among the Xiongnu people. The beginning of fear.

Soon after Maodun Shanyu came to the throne, King Donghu took advantage of his unsteady footing and sent an envoy to ask for Shanyu's thousand-mile horse. In order to paralyze Donghu, Maodun gave the thousand-mile horse to King Donghu, regardless of the objections of the officials. The King of Donghu took it further and asked for Shanyu Yan's family. Both the left and right sides of Maodun were very angry and requested to send troops to attack Donghu, but Maodun still satisfied King Donghu's request. King Donghu thought that Maodun was weak and could be bullied, so he no longer took him seriously. Mao Dun took the opportunity to stabilize his rule, expand his armaments, and sent troops to raid Donghu. Donghu was caught off guard, and the king of Donghu was killed. All his people and livestock were obtained by the Xiongnu, and Donghu was destroyed. Maodun Shanyu also took advantage of his victory to attack the Yuezhi in Yongzhou in the Hexi Corridor, forcing them to move westward. This eliminates the threat from both sides. Later, he led the Huns to conquer more than 20 countries, including Loulan, Wusun, and Hujie, and controlled most of the Western Regions. To the north, they conquered the countries of Hunyu, Qushe, Dingling, Kunkun, Xinli, etc. To the south, they annexed Loufan and the territory under the jurisdiction of the Aries Henan King, and reoccupied the land south of the Hetao. The Xiongnu occupied a vast area starting from Yinshan Mountain in the south, reaching Lake Baikal in the north, reaching the Liaohe River in the east, and crossing the Congling Mountains in the west. They claimed to unite all the bow-wielding people into one family, and had more than 300,000 bow-stringers, making them the strongest in the north. large nation.

But what left the deepest impression on the world was the story of Maodun Shanyu who "murdered his father and killed his father" in his early years.

Maodun Chanyu was originally the son of his father Touman Chanyu and should inherit the throne of Khan. But later Touman Shanyu's beloved Yan family gave birth to a young son. Touman Chanyu wanted to kill Modun and make his younger son the prince, so he sent Modun to Yuezhi as a hostage.

As soon as Mao Dun arrived at the Yuezhi, Touman Chanyu immediately attacked the Yuezhi. The Yuezhi wanted to kill Mao Dun, but Mo Dun stole the Yuezhi's good horse and rode it back to the Huns. Touman Chanyu thought he was brave and ordered him to command ten thousand cavalry.

If you are unkind, I will be unjust. At this time, Mao Dun already had the intention of killing his father and seizing the throne. He made a kind of sounding arrow called Mingdi. When training his men on horseback and archery, he ordered: "Anyone who does not follow me and shoot at the target shot by my Mingdi will be beheaded."

Mao Dun first shot at birds and beasts. If anyone did not shoot at the target, Mao Dun killed them. Soon, Mao Dun shot his beloved horse with a resounding arrow. Those on the left and right did not dare to shoot, so Mao Dun immediately killed them. After some time, Mao Dun shot his beloved wife with a loud arrow again. Some of the people around him were frightened and did not dare to shoot, so Mao Dun killed them again.

A few days later, Maodun went hunting and shot Touman Shanyu's horse with a loud arrow, and everyone on the left and right followed suit. So Mao Dun knew that everyone around him was available.

Then he went hunting with his father Touman Chanyu, and shot Touman Chanyu with a loud arrow. The people around him also shot arrows at Touman Chanyu, and Touman Chanyu died on the spot. Afterwards, Modu killed his stepmother, younger brother and all those who disobeyed him, and then he established himself as Chanyu and seized power.

Modu's method of establishing supreme prestige is very simple and crude, and that is to use people's fear of death to make them form a mindset - if they disobey, they will be killed.

All living creatures have an innate fear of the destined return of death. Human beings have it, birds and beasts have it, and so do ants.

All creatures know that they should avoid fire, hibernate in cold weather, or eat more, or find a place to stay warm. This is due to fear of death and attachment to life.

In the ant nest, even a single worker ant or soldier ant is insignificant to the entire ant nest, but when encountering danger, these ants will still run for their lives frantically, not because they are important to the ant nest. Just give up your life if you have no choice.

The more intelligent the species, the stronger the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Earthworms know that exposure to the sun will kill them, but countless earthworms still come out of the ground every day when it is dark or rainy, and then accidentally stray into the hard soil and have no time to return to the ground, and are finally dried by the sun. But monkeys will never run wild where they can observe hidden dangers.

Male ants are obviously smart, but they are also afraid of death. Therefore, the protagonist has a way to make them obey in a short time!
