Chapter 174: Decision
On the grassland of Mobei, there are flags as far as the eye can see, and under the dragon flag, the Xiongnu's single in the king's tent stands majestically.
As a single dome, it is extraordinary!
The size alone is equivalent to the size of dozens of ordinary domes!
It can accommodate more than 200 people at the same time, and there is even room for more than 100 samurai to hide in it.
Since Maodun Shan Yu, this dome has been the residence of the Xiongnu Shan Yu in the past dynasties.
Wherever they go, they will take it with them.
It also witnessed the accession and death of the digital Shan Yu, and witnessed countless bloody pasts.
Now, its owner, lying on the couch in frailty, looked at the man in front of him.
"King Jiankun, haven't you come back yet?" Fox Deer Gu asked in a low voice.
"Returning to Da Shan Yu, it should be soon...... "A nobleman cried and said: "King Jiankun will be back soon, please hold on to Da Dan Yu!" β
Fox Lugu listened, but shook her head: "Don't comfort me......"
"King Jiankun...... It's about too late to get back......"
Now, I'm afraid that Junji Mountain has been blocked by snow, right?
Even if Li Ling dared to risk being trapped and dying in a snowstorm to rush back, and successfully cross the extremely dangerous Junji Mountain Range in this season, the private canal will become his nightmare!
Even the most experienced herdsmen would not dare to trespass in the private canals of the Bibi Sea, which are dominated by storms and extremely cold and cold weather, during this season.
Therefore, Hulugu knew very well that he would not be able to hold out when Li Ling came back.
He had to make arrangements for what was going on after his death.
"Tu Qi ......" Fox Lugu looked at her cousin, beckoned to him, and said, "You come to me!" β
Tu Qi, the king of the right valley who had been standing on the side, listened, stepped forward a little stupidly, knelt down and said, "Da Danyu, what do you command?" β
In his heart, Tu Qi didn't understand it very much.
Although he and Hulugu are cousins, however, Xianxian is also Hulugu's cousin!
In fact, Tu Qi and Hulugu are not very compatible.
As the king of Yougu Li, a high-ranking nobleman who is only at the top of the succession sequence, Tu Qi has been the target and target of Hulugu in the past few years.
Especially in recent months, Hulugu was eager to put Tu Qi to death, and in order to suppress and restrict Tu Qi, Hulugu even helped the Tu Lu shaman.

However, today, Hulugu suddenly sent someone to summon Tu Qi here.
It is impossible for Tu Qi not to be afraid in his heart.
No, Hulugu promised to allow Tu Qi to bring his personal guards here, and made public the order to summon Tu Qi.
If he borrowed a few more courages from Tu Qi, he wouldn't dare to come here - what if he came and couldn't go back?
Hulugu didn't care so much, he struggled to get up, looked at Tu Qi, and said: "The Han people have a saying: The country cannot be without a king for a day!" β
"This is indeed a wise saying!"
"Now, my Great Hun is suffering from internal and external troubles, and there are endless turmoil, but I am ......"
Hulugu looked at Tu Qi, took a deep breath, and then had the strength to continue: "Now, Zuo Tu Hao's ancestors are far away in the Western Regions, and they are facing the oppression of the Han Dynasty's army, and I am afraid that they will have nothing more than rushing back to take the throne for a while......
"I'm worried if I'm unlucky...... I'm afraid there will be no peace in the country forever......"
"So......" Hulugu looked at her cousin in front of her and said solemnly: "Tu Qi! The heir of Mao Dun Da Shan Yu, the bloodline of Juli Lake Shan Yu, are you willing to take over my burden, swear to heaven and earth, swear to my ancestors, and become the new plough of my Great Huns? β
When Tu Qi heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of incredulity.
Single?
Who wouldn't want to be?!
What's more, he Tu Qi does have that strength!
He had a 10,000-cavalry in his headquarters, and before King Yu Jing left, he entrusted his tribe to him, so that he got the 10,000-cavalry force left by King Yu Jing.
As long as one or two of the four major clans are united, they will have the qualifications and strength to sit firmly in this single position.
Not to mention, now Hulugu personally proposed to let him inherit Shan Yu's position.
This means that he will get the inheritance of Hulugu - the more than 20,000 elite royal court cavalry.
With the support of this power, coupled with Shan Yu's will, he doesn't need the support of the four major clans, and he has the ability to sit firmly in this Shan Yu's position!
It's just that in this steppe, there is nothing that does not need a price!
Even if it's water, it needs something to exchange.
Tu Qiming
White, what must Fox Lugu need him to give?
So, he bowed his head and bowed, and said, "O great plough and lonely plow, I am naturally willing to inherit your glory, but what do I need to do to be as great as you?" β
Fox Lugu propped up her body and laughed: "Tu Qi, my brother, you should know how to do it......"
Tu Qi lowered his head, naturally understanding what the other party meant-this Shan Yu always cared about and remembered his son and his future status.
In the Xiongnu, there is a tradition for brothers to die and nephews to die.
After thinking about it, Tu Qi knelt down in front of Hulugu without hesitation and swore an oath: "The great plough is lonely, I am willing to swear to the heavens and the earth, the sun and the moon and the spirit of all things: after I die, I will be succeeded by your bloodline, if I violate this oath, I will be abandoned by all things, cursed by the sun and the moon, and sink into the hell of fire and blades for life and death, and my children and grandchildren will be cursed forever!" β
As he spoke, the king of the right valley took out a knife from his arms, and then cut a deep wound on his cheek with the knife in front of the fox deer girl.
Blood immediately flowed from the severed flesh and down his cheeks to his neck and chest.
And Tu Qi's eyes were a little hideous, and tears were rolling in his eyes.
This is the most solemn and strict oath of the Huns.
Traditionally, the oath made through this ritual cannot be violated, and those who violate it will be besieged by all!
This is not only an oath to the gods of heaven and earth and the ancestral spirits, but also an oath to one's own soul.
On the grassland, a person who can violate the oath of all things in heaven and earth, as well as the ancestral spirits and his own soul, can no longer gain the allegiance and trust of others.
Back then, and Marquis Shan Yu, he could only wait for Xianxian's father to die, so he dared to play a sideline game, and found an excuse to exile Xianxian to the Western Regions, which set up Hulugu.
Even so, in order to stop the mouths of the nobles of the various tribes, and Marquis Shan Yu could only watch the sages slowly control the Western Regions, and today it has become a force that cannot be defeated, becoming a destabilizing factor within the Xiongnu.
It can even be thought that - if it were not for this, maybe today's Xiongnu would never have fallen to Si.
Therefore, Hulugu looked at Tu Qi, and he said seriously: "Tu Qi, the king of the right valley, I, the great son of heaven and earth, the plough favored by the sun and the moon, with the power given to me by the sun and the moon of heaven and earth, I hereby make you Zuo Tu luxury, my heir!" β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Almost at the same time, a group of light riders, stepping on the snow, appeared in front of Wei Lu.
"King!" The nobleman led by him came to Wei Lu, turned over and dismounted, knelt down and bowed: "The minister is fortunate not to be dishonored!" β
When Wei Lu saw this person, the haze on his face was immediately swept away, and he hurriedly stepped forward, helped the person up, and said, "Brother Wang Xian has worked this trip!" β
This person was ordered by Wei Lu to secretly go to the Western Regions to contact Wang He of Li Ling.
Wei Lu took Wang He to a nearby secret vault, ordered people to retreat left and right, and set up a separation zone, and then he immediately asked impatiently: "What did Li Shaoqing say?" β
"King Jiankun, it's the same as the king's thoughts......" Wang He showed a bright smile and said, "Moreover, the implementation began immediately!" β
"When the minister was passing through the Pu countries, he heard the news of the fierce battle between the king of Jiankun and the general of the second division of the Han Dynasty at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains......"
"It is said that although King Jiankun had to lead his army to withdraw from Weili, he also gave Li Guangli a cruel lesson!"
"Good!" When Wei Lu heard this, he immediately laughed: "If this is the case, my great cause will be a few percent more!" β
Before this summer, Wei Lu was still assisting Hulugu and Zhongxing Xiongnu, so he slapped the old emperor of the Han Dynasty in the face.
However, with the northern expedition of the upstart of the Han Dynasty, he and the entire Xiongnu were defeated.
Wei Lu's mind has completely changed.
In particular, after he witnessed the riotous operation between the Fox Lugu, the Tu Lu Shaman, the Four Great Clans and the Twin Clans, the previous blood has completely cooled!
Because he clearly saw what the internal chaos of the Huns had become?
It's just chaos, the key is that no matter which side performs, it can be described as 'cruel' and 'stupid'.
Wei Lu searched through all the memories and history books he knew, and could not find a worse example than the current Xiongnu interior.
In particular, some guys within the four major clans and the twin clans, in order to fight against the invasion of the faith of the slaughtering shaman, even their own mortal enemies can come up with the fact that they can make a fuss, which makes Wei Lu completely dead.
These Huns are hopeless!
If they continue to play like this, don't say anything about the Xiongnu.
I'm afraid that next year today, the Xiongnu, as a unified system, will cease to exist!
All sides will play pig brains, and besides, once this civil war starts, there will be no peace!
And the Xiongnu themselves were not the opponents of the Han Dynasty, so wouldn't it be suicide to engage in this kind of infighting?
Wei Lu didn't believe it, the four major clans and the Twin Clan, Fox Lu Gu, and even the Tu Yu Shaman didn't know the result of continuing like this.
But none of them would budge!
What hope is there for such a Huns?
When this idea was born, Wei Lu's first thought was not how to redeem it.
Rather, it's a terrifying thought β in that case, why not let me be in charge?
When this idea came to mind, Wei Lu could never go back to the past.
Because he found that compared to the current weak scum of the Huns, idiots without strategic vision and foresight.
He is undoubtedly the real hero!
Able to bend and stretch, have the right to soldier.
What's moreβthere are still chips in his handsβHulugu's sons are all under him and Li Ling.
The Son of Narrow Heaven ordered the princes to do it, Duke Zhou did it, Duke Qi Henggong did it, and he and Li Ling couldn't do it?
The only thing that worries him is that if Li Ling doesn't want to open it, there will be no way to continue.
But now, the facts tell him - Li Ling is the same as him, and the hero sees something the same!
This made Wei Lu extremely excited!
With Li Ling's support, the plan can continue!
Wei Lu was about to ask Wang He about the affairs of the Western Regions, when someone outside the tent whispered: "King, king, something is wrong, someone in the king's tent has come to report, Shan Yuzheng summoned Tu Qi, the king of the right valley, and wants to set up Tu Qi as the left Tu Qi!" β
When Wei Lu heard this, his eyes widened, and his face immediately turned red, and after a long time, he spit out a sentence: "Hulu Aunt, you actually dare to rebel?!" β
There is no doubt that Fox Lugu's hand was completely unexpected by Wei Lu.
Even, so to speak, beyond everyone's imagination.
Right Valley Liwang Tu Qi?
It was a thorn in the past that was like the sages, and it was a representative figure of the Twin Clan's incompatibility with Hulugu, and it was also an ambitious figure.
However, in the past, this person was weak and weak, and he had no capital and fox deer aunt to call for him.
Now, Hulugu suddenly merged with it, and she wanted to set up that person as Zuo Tu Lu? !
Once this happens, Wei Lu is very clear, what will be the consequences?
He paced back and forth in the tent, countless thoughts flashed in his mind, and finally, he gritted his teeth and said to Wang He: "Brother Wang Xian, I have worked hard for you, please go and meet the mother of the Yan clan and inform Shan Yu of the current situation!" β
"Yes!" When Wang He heard this, he immediately bowed and said, "The minister will do it!" β
Seeing Wang He's distant back, Wei Lu thought about it, opened the tent door, walked out, and said to the cronies standing outside the tent: "You immediately go and inform the Han officials and Qin officials in the various ministries, and ask them to let as many people know about this matter as possible, especially the clans and noble races of the four major clans!" β
"In addition, immediately go and inform all the Jiankun cavalry and Ding Ling cavalry, and order them to be on standby at any time!"
Ordering all these things, Wei Lu clenched his fists and scolded viciously: "Hulu Aunt, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" β
In his original plan, he would gradually take advantage of Hulugu's illness to slowly complete the infiltration and influence of the main force of the royal court, and with the help of Li Ling's influence in the royal court, after Hulugu's death, he immediately controlled the royal court, concealed the news of his death, and then notified Li Ling, so that the ancestors could come to Mobei.
Wait for the sages to arrive with people, and then unite the internal and external forces to turn it into a puppet.
even, by some means, let it 'pawn'.
So you can justifiably support a young lord, and pretend to be a regent under the pretense of being ordered!
But I didn't want to, Hulu Gu suddenly came to such a hand.
completely disrupted Wei Lu's plan, Wei Lu was naturally not an honest person, and he refused to be stupid to let Hulugu pick peaches for nothing and become yellow hair.
Simply, do not do two endlessly, completely detonate the current contradictions, in order to seek an opportunity for the fisherman to compete with the clams for profit!
However, Wei Lu would never have imagined that he would detonate more than just the contradictions he saw.
It is the contradictions that the Xiongnu have precipitated and accumulated for more than 30 years since Yin Zhixian!
Those contradictions that have been covered up and hidden by generations of Xiongnu Shan Yu and nobles have been deliberately concealed.
But now, stimulated by the new variable, the slaughter shaman, and the blow of last year's fiasco, these contradictions can no longer be hidden!
They are like lava under the Yellowstone volcano, boiling, ready to break through the earth's crust and change and reshape the entire Mobei!
