Chapter 49: New Meiji King City
The army returned south to Jiling, and the Tu tribes from Wuyuan had been relocated here under the order of Ji Louyuan. The Xiongnu partial army sent to Wuyuan at the beginning was very smooth in the sweeping and conquering of the Tu Tribes, and the Tu Tribes in the Five Plains were not strong and were quickly subdued.
At the beginning, Wang Zhi came to vote, so that Ji Louyuan had a clear judgment of the situation in Wuyuan, Putou led the army of 10,000 cavalry, and had completely captured the counties, and after thinking about it, he ordered people to move the Wuyuan Tu to the south of Yunzhong to resettle. In the face of the Xianbei people, who were still sharp and aggressive, Ji Louyuan consciously began to shrink the power of the Xiongnu.
The southern part of Yunzhong, centered on the two counties of Jiling and Shanan, as well as the western part of Dingxiang, was tacitly regarded by Ji Louyuan as the sphere of influence of the Xiongnu, and was used to settle the Tu tribesmen. Accumulate strength and serve as a base for future expansion to the west, north, and east. After a walk among the tribes and exerting a large influence on Danyu, Ji Lou Yuan led the army to the territory of Dingxiang.
Go south along the river, but half a day, you will go to Tongguo. Dingxiang this county, the land is small, the population is sparse, the whole county is divided into two by the Great Wall, for Ji Louyuan, it is better to settle the Xiongnu tribe. Occupying this land can not only avoid conflicts and disputes with the Han people to the greatest extent, but also not break through the bottom line of the Han court.
Tongguo, Wucheng, and Luoxian are located on the western border of Xiang, and if they control this land, they can form a triangle with the Jiling in the north and the Meiji royal court in the west. Ji Lou Yuan originally wanted to shrink the power of the Xiongnu and gather the Xiongnu tribes in this corridor around the three places, which was extremely conducive to Ji Louyuan's control of the entire Xiongnu.
On the east bank of the river, tens of thousands of Tu tribesmen in Dingxiang County were gathered, and everyone looked at Ji Louyuan wearing the golden eagle helmet with some confusion, knowing that from this day on, they would be reclassified under the rule of Da Dan Yu and the royal court.
Ji Lou Yuan forcibly recruited more than 30,000 knights from all the Tu tribes to bring them back to the royal court, and he would not leave too much military power for the Tu tribes before he completely subdued the hearts of Tu Everyone, so as not to be accidental.
Looking at the more than 60,000 people gathered around him, Ji Louyuan was overjoyed, before the expedition, there were only more than 30,000 troops, and the losses were not small after a long battle, but the number of returning troops increased dramatically.
The decision to slaughter each is really right, the law of survival in the world, the weak eat the strong, in the grassland, or only by annexing others to fatten themselves, can we expand our strength the fastest. Slaughtering more than 100,000 people in various tribes, after annexation, his strength has increased so much. The Xianbei tribesmen are millions, if they can be swallowed by whales, then the strength of the Xiongnu ...... Looking at the north, Ji Louyuan's eyes were full of greed and ambition.
Leaving Chi Yi to lead 5,000 troops, inspect and defend the various departments of Tu, monitor the Xianbei and Han armies, and Ji Lou Yuan began to lead the army west to Meiji. Although there were twists and turns, this battle was finally victorious.
The army marched forward, endured more than a day of cold and freezing, and finally saw the water flowing into the river in the south. The water level dropped a lot, the entire river surface was shrouded in a layer of frost mist, and the Danxia bamboo forests on both sides of the river bank also had some gloom, seeing this familiar scene, all the Hun soldiers couldn't help but show a trace of relief at home.
Ji Louyuan couldn't help but smile, he had been on the expedition for more than three months, but he was tired, and his mental excitement could not hide his physical exhaustion, and he could relax and rest for a while. Wine, food, silk beds and beauties, Ji Lou Yuan can't wait to enjoy it.
Affected by the solar terms, the Xiongnu tribes scattered in the northern grassland of the West River by Ji Louyuan gathered around the royal court early, the weather was very cold, but hundreds of thousands of Huns gathered for the winter, the whole royal court was still lively, and the sound was mixed between heaven and earth.
The news of Ji Louyuan's triumphant return came early, which caused the Meiji Xiongnu to be excited, and under the leadership of Lan Zhi, Qiu Lin and other old ministers, they gathered in the east city of Meiji, waiting for the return of the army. Many people whispered and discussed Da Shan Yu's victory fiercely, and the cold wind swept and shivered, which did not affect the high mood at all.
The front army of the army rose from the end of the grassland, and a warm cheer exploded in Meiji. After two quarters of an hour's effort, the army entered the road vacated by the center, Ji Louyuan led the army to give alms, proudly listened to the warm cheers of the Huns, enjoyed it very much, sat on the horse, waved his hand, and his body shook a little.
The Hun soldiers who followed him also felt deeply honored, I don't know how long, the Hun soldiers did not enjoy such a warm welcome, such glory. Looking at the hundreds of thousands of people around them, all the soldiers couldn't help but straighten their backs and enjoy the adoring gaze of the people. The Tu Ge soldiers who followed back to the royal court were also infected by the grand and enthusiastic scene, and the apprehension in their hearts dissipated a lot, and it seemed that it was not bad to follow Da Danyu.
After walking for five or six miles, the army stopped, Fei Fei and Lan Yu were in the center, Lan Zhi, Zheyu, Dangfu and others were guarding the side, blowing a cold wind, all waiting for Ji Louyuan's return with a happy face. Ji Lou Yuance stepped forward immediately, glanced at everyone, dismounted domineeringly, waved his cloak, and walked forward.
Several people knelt down and said, "Welcome to Da Dan Yu Triumph!" Then the surrounding Huns slowly knelt down, nobles, subordinates, slaves, respectful. The soldier dismounted, fell to the ground on one knee, and offered his fanatical worship. Hundreds of thousands of people knelt down in unison, and the scene was spectacular for a while.
Looking around, the corners of Ji Louyuan's mouth couldn't help but hang an arc, this is the feeling of leading hundreds of thousands of people in the clan, so wonderful. The charm of power simply makes him unable to extricate himself, and the eldest husband should be like this! "Get up!" Ji Lou Yuan said lightly.
After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Fei Fei and Lan Yu, the two of them had big bellies, obviously standing in the cold wind for a long time, and their pretty faces were red from the cold. Ji Lou Yuan hurriedly asked the maid to help the two of them up, stepped forward and gently stroked the belly that was pregnant with his blood with his left and right hands and said, "The child is about to be born!" The two smiled.
"Long live the big order!" Under the leadership of Lan Zhi, the Huns who got up began to celebrate, and the servants were waiting for the generals, roaring very happily. In the deafening sound of congratulations, Ji Louyuan led the people into the Meiji King City.
The pressure borne by Zheyu and Helan Dangfu during the period of Jilouyuan's expedition was not small, guarding the royal court, taking into account the management of hundreds of thousands of people, and regulating the disputes between the ministries. With their weak prestige, even if they had the support of Lan Zhi and other old ministers, they were quite tormented, and the return of Ji Lou Yuan also made them breathe a sigh of relief.
Meiji has been repaired and expanded after three months of Zheyu, and the face is new again, the city is four or five miles long and wide, and the moat surrounds the city. Although the scale is still not large, it has begun to take on the image of a royal city, unlike the previous dilapidated Xiaoyi. Hundreds of brand-new houses have been rebuilt in the city, lined up in three or four wide streets, clean and bright.
There is a palace in the north city, the atmosphere of sinicization is strong, not big, there are only more than 20 houses, this is the palace specially built for Ji Louyuan. The main hall is seven or eight zhang high, and there are two towers of more than ten zhang on both sides, standing on the top enough to overlook the entire royal court. "Zheyu, you gave Ben Shan Yu a big surprise!" Looking at this brand-new hall, Ji Lou Yuan said to the Yu Yu beside him with some joy.
Under the leadership of the Han craftsmen, he quickly completed the entire palace, and said to the craftsmen around him with great satisfaction: "From today on, all the craftsmen of the Han people are out of slavery, and you are my Hun craftsmen, and you are the only ones who repair and repair the work, and do the work of the Hun project!" The craftsman's face was overjoyed, and he bowed down and said, "Thank you Da Danyu, villain!" "Are you an official? It's a pity that it's in the Huns.
The door creaked, and was slowly opened by four wrestlers, and Ji Lou Yuan stepped in front of him, stepped on nine stone steps, and sat on the throne. There were hundreds of Xiongnu nobles who entered the hall, looking up at Ji Lou Yuan, who was high above, and the feeling of surrender in their hearts was extremely strong, divided into four columns, and knelt down and kowtowed together: "Meet Da Danyu!" ”
Ji Lou Yuan stood upright, with great power in his hands, and a sense of self-respect and pride in suppressing the world overflowed his heart. Spread out his hands, leaned on the armrest of the throne, and said majestically: "No courtesy!" ”
