"Drive~drive~!"
"Drive~!"
The endless grassland is covered with white snow.
More than twenty men in different costumes were riding horses and running wildly.
On the grassland.
Between the hills and on the snow on the top of the mountain, there will be piles of stones of varying sizes.
Those are not graves.
Rather, it comes from a kind of prayer and supplication to God.
Under the hill.
Several men, women and children were sitting beside the water plants on the plain.
Next to these young and old, on the snow-covered plain that stretches to the sky, hundreds of black oyster cows and countless lambs spread across the entire ice and snow.
The word nomadic is perfectly interpreted in this scenery.
Listen to the sound of horse hooves in the distance.
The old and young men turned their heads to look, and then discovered that there were tribesmen on the path in the plain in the distance.
See this.
These old and young people turned around and continued grazing without paying much attention.
As they walked through the hills one after another, they passed through many tribes. After about an hour and a half, more than 20 men on horseback finally arrived at a huge tribe.
The tribe is set up under towering hills.
And this tribe, in the eyes of other tribes, is called Yueshi!
Within the tribe.
The snow here has long been cleared. At this moment, there are countless men and women next to the countless tents, and the crowds are dense. Among them, there are even more men selling stalls, and there are even some men from the Central Plains among them.
These more than 20 men followed the tribe and finally came to an 'ancient city' made of stone barriers and straw.
It is said to be an ancient city, but it is different from the cities in the Central Plains.
The ancient city in front of the tribe behind the tribe was dug out of a huge and towering hill.
There is no city gate.
But the way up was guarded by a dozen men armed with machetes.
"The Huns ask to see the king!"
Among the more than twenty men, a man stood out and said to the man guarding him. As he spoke, he pointed to the sky with his hands, then lowered his head and placed his hands on his left and right chests reverently.
Among the men guarding the road, one man returned the greeting, then turned and walked up the path behind him.
After a long time.
When the man came down, he said he could let him go up.
Salute again.
A man led two men, and a man from the Huns tribe, and then walked towards the ancient city.
The four of them followed the trail, and after going up a few steps, they could see a small hollow hollowed out every dozen steps on the mountain beside the trail.
The earthen door of the small cave is not big and can only accommodate one person entering or exiting, but the space inside can accommodate seven or eight people sleeping.
The man from the Xiongnu tribe didn't dare to look inside the pit when he saw it.
Because he didn't dare to mess with anyone inside.
The Yueshi are different from the Xiongnu. In addition to plains, the Yueshi's territory also has towering mountains.
The people of the Yuezhi tribe generally can only live in tents.
The people who live in these places that are warm in winter, cool in summer, and very safe are all members of the Yuezhi royal family.
End of trail.
The Hun man followed the three men to the small entrance into the mountain.
After entering the small opening, follow the narrow earth steps inside and keep walking up. After a while, you can walk out of the path.
Compared with what is below, after walking out of the trail, standing on the flat land in the middle of the mountain, the surrounding field of vision is endless, far wider than below.
And above, there are also houses made of wooden beams.
"Sanghia!"
On the flat ground in front of the wooden house, accompanied by several tribal maids, a girl came to four men and asked one of them.
The girl is wearing tribal costumes and accessories, with long hair tied on her head, and the colorful strips are fluttering in the wind.
"Sangjia has met Princess Yangjin!"
When the man saw the girl, he quickly blessed her.
During the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the Yuezhi bartered with the people of the Central Plains. After the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang Dynasty and established the emperor, the Yuezhi also implemented the kingship system.
The girl in front of her is now the daughter of the Moon King.
It is also known as the flower of Yuezhi.
"Why are you here today?"
The girl asked, her eyes looking directly at the sturdy Sanjia. This appearance gave people a sense of heroism.
On flat ground.
Face the inquiry. Sangjia, who was obviously tall and tall, looked at the girl in front of him, feeling a little frightened, his eyes panicked, and he quickly lowered his head.
Two years ago, their Xiongnu tribe fought with the Yueshi. Although this girl was particularly beautiful, in that battle, it was this girl who led the men of the Yueshi tribe to fight against the Xiongnu. In that battle, this The girl was armed with a machete and killed several Hun men alone.
After that battle.
It was said that the Yueshi, the entire Huns, and even Lin Hu knew that this girl was not only good at leading troops, but also good at fighting.
"Sangjia came to see King Yuezhi on the orders of Chanyu."
Sangia said to the girl.
Then he bowed his head again and gave a blessing.
The girl stood there, her long braids fluttering as the cold wind blew by.
Seeing Sangjia walking towards her father's palace above, the girl thought about it and walked quickly.
After a while.
In the ancient city, it is the largest and most luxurious wooden palace.
Sanjia met the Yuezhi King who was in his forties.
And he also bluntly stated the purpose of his visit.
"I, Shanyu, have received certain news. In more than a month, Qin State will change its general at Shangjun Gao Nu. By then, a young Qin general will be guarding it. As long as we take the opportunity to destroy the Qin branch in Shangjun An army of cavalry."
Sangjia said to the Yuezhi King, his tone was full of determination and confidence when he spoke.
This news was secretly told to the Xiongnu by an official of the Qin State, and the official's purpose seemed to be to want the young man to die.
Sangia believes it.
When the Yuezhi King knows this news, he will definitely understand what the Huns want to do.
"My Yuezhi is close to the north of Qin and Longxi. If we kill Qin's cavalry in Shangjun, where will Qin be?"
King Yuezhi said softly.
Understanding what the Xiongnu meant, the Yuezhi King was lying when he said he was not moved. In the past, if the Yuezhi warriors wanted to go south, they would definitely fight against the defenders of Qin's northern, Longxi, and Shangjun counties.
Qin's infantry were okay. They could still run away if they couldn't defeat the Yueshi, but Qin's cavalry was always a huge threat.
If they can really eat the 10,000 cavalrymen in Shangjun, then the threat of going south in the future will naturally be much smaller.
However, what if Qin retaliates?
"The Qin State destroyed Han. Now the vassal states in the Central Plains are all staring at the Qin State, especially the Chu State and Zhao State that are adjacent to the Qin State. How dare the Qin State launch a large army to attack the Yueshi at this time?"
Sanjia said loudly.
"The Qin State wants to retaliate. Firstly, this is not the Central Plains. Here, how can the Qin State's infantry be the opponent of the Grassland Erlang? Secondly, the Qin State loses this cavalry. Within three to five years, there will not be enough Iron cavalry, dare to come to the grassland to fight with the grassland warriors."
Inside the wooden palace.
Sanjia's words made everyone freeze in place.
The elders of the Yuezhi tribe started talking among themselves after listening to Sangjia's words.
Every elder understands in their hearts that the Huns' territory is close to Zhao, and Zhao has Li Mu, so the Huns dare not go south to Zhao. Now the Huns can only pay attention to Qin, and the Huns cannot bear the Qin cavalry, and they still want the Yuezhi Send troops together.
Although it is used.
But at the same time, they elders all knew that Sanjia's words were correct.
The State of Qin prepared for them to go south to the Central Plains every year.
The Yuezhi sent troops south every year, but mostly returned without success. The best result was that they could only rob one or two cities, and they did not dare to stay too long.
If this time we can really destroy the Qin cavalry in Shangjun.
Without the cavalry army, Shangjun no longer poses any threat to them.
That's a county!
Although it is bound to offend Qin, we are not worried at all.
As long as it eats that iron cavalry, what can Qin do?
This is the territory of Grassland Erlang. Not to mention Qin State, even Zhao State, no vassal state in the Central Plains would dare to send a large army to kill on the grassland, otherwise no matter how many people come, they will die.
This is also the reason why the Xiongnu were not destroyed by Zhao Guo Li Mu after their defeat.
Even Li Mu did not dare to lead troops into the grassland. How could the Qin State, which was defeated by Zhao Li Mu, dare to come to the grassland?
On the wooden palace.
King Yuezhi sat on the animal skin chair, thought for a moment, and looked at his daughter Yang Jin. He found that Yang Jin seemed to have guessed, like him, that there must be an expert behind the Huns.
What Sanjia said just now was not something a Huns could say.
Consider this.
King Yuezhi thought about it and no longer minded cooperating with the Xiongnu.
Since the Huns have the help of the Central Plains people behind them, they, the Yueshi, don't mind putting in some effort and waiting for another month.
Now appease the other tribes.
A month later, I will get it back from Qin with interest.
After a while.
King Yuezhi saw the elders nodding and looked at Yang Jin.
"Yang Jin, you send someone to inform all the tribes that the date of going south will be changed to one month later."
King Yuezhi said to his daughter.
When Yang Jin heard his father's words, he saluted and blessed, then turned and left.
Although she did not go south and invaded Qin.
But she had some impressions about the men from the Central Plains. Looking at the merchants from the Central Plains, she knew that in terms of strength, the men from the Central Plains could not compare to their prairie warriors.
Since my father decided to unite with the Xiongnu and go south.
She also wanted to take this opportunity to see how capable the Qin people were.
Will update again in the morning!
In the future, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing will not be the only ones. Good night, readers! !
