"Land and water, the Golden Horde has summoned us all the way to obtain the land and water of the tribes?"

Coming out of the tent where the guests were entertained, on the way to wait for Zhao Hou to arrive, the patriarch of the Kongtong clan recalled what Yidun said, and his mood could not be calmed down for a long time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Land and water, both of which are equally important to farmers and nomads.

There is a typical example in later generations, when the Qin and Han dynasties were at the turn of the Qin and Han dynasties, the Xiongnu and Donghu were tied to the grassland, and the king of Donghu heard that Mao Dun killed his father and stood on his own, and the internal instability was unstable, so he sent a messenger to Mao Dun to ask for the thousands of horses of Tou Man Danyu. Mao Dun asked the ministers, and the ministers all said: "Maxima is the treasure of the Huns, and it cannot be given." Mao Dun said that he did not spare a mere horse and gave it to Donghu. The king of Donghu had to inch into Mao Dun and said, and he wanted Mao Dun's Yan clan again. Mao Dun asked the ministers on the left and right, and the ministers on the left and right were angry and said: "Donghu is humiliating the Huns, please send troops to attack them!" Mao Dun once again said that he didn't care, and gave his most beautiful Yan clan to the king of Donghu to play.

The king of Donghu thought that Mao Dun was timid, and became more and more arrogant, and sent an envoy to Mao Dun for the third time to ask for the open space between the Xiongnu and Donghu, and Mao Dun asked for the opinions of the ministers, and some of the ministers said: "The Xiongnu are thousands of miles away, and there is land and water, and it is not a big deal to give them." Unexpectedly, this time, Mao Dun was furious and said: "Land and water are the foundation of the country, how can they be given to others!" ”

So Mao Dun killed those who abandoned the land lightly, raised troops to make enemies with Donghu, and destroyed Donghu in five battles......

Although this was more than 200 years later, for the Heshuo tribes such as Kongtong, Linhu and Baiyang, land and water are also the source of survival for the tribe. Without land, their cattle and sheep will have no place to graze, and without water, their people will dry up and thirsty.

To dedicate the land and water passed down from generation to generation to foreigners, the patriarch of Kongtong is unwilling.

But they are all small tribes with a population of no more than 10,000, how can they have the strength of the 100,000 bow-leading warriors of the Huns in later generations? With the newly emerging Donghu being beaten down, the strength of the Zhao State and the Saiwai tribes has been completely unbalanced. Looking at it, the military discipline of the Zhao army is like wings, the number of people is like the prosperity of the forest, and the elite armor and crossbow guard the key places, and they can't compete with it......

After coming to Longcheng and seeing the strength of Zhao with his own eyes, the legs of the patriarch of Kongtong became weak, and he became more and more determined in his original plan, instead of resisting and being wiped out, it is better to symbolically accept the land as a vassal and be Zhao's subordinate state according to what Yidun said......

Thinking of this, the patriarch of Kongtong remembered that his wayward daughter had run away with another man.

"Did you find it!?" He grabbed his sons.

The eldest son hurriedly said, "I haven't found it yet." ”

The patriarch of Kongtong was almost crazy, and he stomped his feet again and again, sighing.

At this time, it was already close to the afternoon, the sun was shining, and after Yidun had ordered the ears of the tribes, they asked them to gather with their troops on both sides of the spacious straight road in Longcheng to visit the ceremonies scheduled for the afternoon, such as drinking, sacrificing prisoners, and ceremonies, when Zhao Hou would personally go out of the city to review the three armies.

The people of the Kongtong clan crowded into the crowd, waiting for a long time with a dry mouth, Zhao Hou had not come, but Kongtong Mingzhu had returned.

Seeing his daughter reappear in front of him, his face was depressed, and the patriarch of Kongtong couldn't care about the thunder, he pinched his daughter's arm fiercely and asked her where she had gone in a low voice.

If she goes outside to mess with people and breaks her body, the price of this daughter will be greatly discounted, if it is given to Zhao Hou, will Zhao Hou think that this is humiliation?

Kong Tongzhu obviously cried a lot, her eyes were still full of tears, she shook her head desperately in the face of her father's questioning, and at the same time her eyes were full of resentment to look at the white horse knight who accompanied her back, she was walking gracefully towards the gate of Dragon City, as if waiting for someone.

Why is she a woman? teasing her like this, that slap was completely incomprehensible.

At this time, the scene became noisy and noisy, and the eyes of the patriarch of the Kongtong clan also turned to Dragon City, focusing on the person waiting for the white horse knight, and couldn't help but gasp and say, "The Golden Horde is here." ”

Kongtong Mingzhu wiped away her tears and looked at the middle of the gate of Dragon City, where she saw the most gorgeous horse, the most beautiful armor, and the most majestic king she had ever seen in her life......

……

During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the chariot was the main equipment of the army, and the horse armor was used to protect the driving horse, and in the era when the cavalry of the Zhao State was rampant all over the world, the horse armor was used on the war horse.

The horse that Zhao Wuxian rode was extremely miraculous, a rare horse in Saibei, and his body was covered with a full set of fiery red leather horse armor, with lacquer on his face, and often painted with exquisite patterns, which was extremely dazzling.

The armor he wore was an ornate iron armor, each hook plated with gold and shining in the sun. The white feathers on the crest stood tall and the large mantle was woven of countless golden threads, so heavy that it seldom floated even when the horse galloped, and once mounted, it almost completely covered the hind legs of the mount.

When Zhao Hou rode out of the Dragon City on horseback, Zhao Jia and a group of Zhao generals waited at the door, staring at him intently, as if he was the only sun in Saibei.

Zhao Wuxian has seen a lot of knowledge in the big scene, compared to the alliance in the Central Plains, this Dragon City Conference is just a small banquet, and he doesn't have to wear a dress, but a military uniform, purely showing force, considering the aesthetics of the outside of the Saiwai, there is no need to be too particular, the more local tyrants and gold, the better.

The hidden danger in the north has disappeared, he seems to be in a relaxed mood, and points to the small red palm mark on Zhao Jia's face, and asks with a smile who dares to offend his "hussar captain".

Zhao Jia recalled that Fang had just pushed the boat down the river and teased the playful behavior of the grassland girl, and couldn't help laughing again, but said: "It's okay, I just met a little wild horse on the grassland, with beautiful fur, my sister was very happy in her heart, and wanted to tease her, but when she surrendered her, she was thrown off by this fierce horse." ”

She is dressed as a samurai on weekdays, and sometimes Zhao Wuxian doesn't know whether to treat her as a sister or as a younger brother, and also smiled: "To deal with horses, you need to have a forage in one hand and a dagger in the other, just like dealing with these Cypriots." ”

Under the protection of the Yulin guards, Zhao Wuxian walked to the front row on his horse, turned back and said to everyone: "Feed the fodder later, now, let the departments outside the Saiwai see how sharp and cruel Zhao Guo's dagger is!" ”

He ordered Zhao Jia to drive forward, Zhao Jia agreed, rode a white horse, glanced at the empty pearl in the crowd, smiled, and then became serious, rode forward, held the flag, and said loudly: "The three armies come forward, drink to, and offer prisoners!" ”

……

Horns are a common occurrence in northern tribes, generally made of animal horns, with a high-pitched and powerful voice, and are used on the battlefield to give orders or boost their might.

However, the twelve large bronze horns at the head of Longcheng City were something they had never seen before, and according to Yi Dun's meaningful introduction, this was a creation made by Zhao Jun by returning all the captured Donghu bronze blades to the furnace. Each one has a thick waist and is placed in the north of Longcheng, which complements the head of Liuhe that has been dried, showing off the great martial arts of Zhao State.

"Ahh

When they were blown by the topless and puffed chest warriors of the Zhao Kingdom, the tribal leaders were terrified, and Kongtong Mingzhu also covered his ears, and the whole world trembled under the hiss of the giant trumpets......

With the sound of the horn, the Zhao army barracks outside Longcheng also opened neat soldiers one after another, they were in the north of Longcheng, Zhao Wuxian and many Saiwai clans looked at the following array: I saw that the Chinese army formed a phalanx of 10,000 people, all of them were white-dressed, white-clothed, plain-armored, and white-feathered, and their commander Xu Qu stood in the center with a plain flag, and he still held the tablet of Yu Xi in his hand. The same is true of the left army, all of them are naked, and they are red, Danjia, and Zhu Yu, and they are like fire. The same is true of the right army, all of them are Xuansheng, Xuanqi, black armor, and black feathers, and they are like ink.

The three armies are bright in three colors, the armor soldiers are sharp, or they are holding strong crossbows and long ge, or they are contradictory with short halberds, and they look extremely majestic.

Subsequently, under the leadership of Zhao Jia and others, Zhao Guo's light car and cavalry also took neat steps and roared. The iron cavalry in the front row was fully armed, with red tassels floating on their pockets, and the dark heavy armor was bulky but very terrifying, wearing red battle robes outside, holding iron spears that were more than a foot long, riding on tall horses, and the war horses were wearing leather armor similar to Zhao Wuxian's mount.

And the thousands of light cavalry behind were not inferior, wearing straight-edged ring-headed knives with black scabbards, and some of them also carried crossbows with their arms on their backs, and behind their horses, there were a bunch of unkempt captives......

These are the leaders of Donghu who were captured in the Rao Leshui and Chishan areas, and after a month of captivity, they were taken here today for a prisoner sacrifice ceremony.

The generals stepped forward to offer prisoners, Zhao Wuxian didn't look at it much, waved his hand and let people carry it to the front to kill, hundreds of bloody heads rolled together, their blood was mixed into the wine jar, Zhao Wuxian poured it into the bowl with his own hands, the first one paid tribute to the heroes who died in battle, the second one respected the heaven and earth, ghosts and gods, and the third one drank with the three armies, rewarding the meritorious soldiers!

After drinking, the infantry cavalry of the three armies reviled the brigade again, and every step they took made a murderous shout, and their sound shook the heavens and the earth, and the faces of the people outside the Sai were pale.

The reason why such a day is another military parade and the sacrifice of prisoners is nothing more than to kill chickens and monkeys and show their teeth to various departments outside the country.

The effect is extremely significant, and the leaders and subordinates of the various departments outside the Saiwai, who have never seen such a powerful army, are all afraid, for fear that those who themselves will follow in the footsteps of those Donghu people.

In a panic, the patriarch of the Kongtong clan trembled, remembering what Yidun said, "Leading the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister", taking advantage of the silence of the three armies shouting and stopping, gritted his teeth, pulled his daughter forward a few steps, bowed to the chief, and said loudly: "Support the plow and be alone!" ”

"Hold the plow alone!" The other stunned Lou Fu, Bai Yang, and Lin Hu departments woke up like a dream, learned from the Kongtong clan, and also bowed down to Zhao Wuxian's position, and said loudly in the Hu language of the Yin Mountain area: "Support the plow and be alone!" ”

"The plough is lonely!"

Tens of thousands of Cypriot tribes gathered here, speaking in unison, it was no less than the three armies of the Zhen Brigade.

Zhao Wuxian was a little puzzled, turned around, and asked Zhao Jiadao, who was proficient in foreign languages behind him: "What does this mean?" ”

Affected by this scene, Zhao Jia was also very excited, she lowered her head on the horse, put her hand on her chest and bent down to salute her brother, and then raised her head, her eyes, which had not been in tears for many years, were already full of tears.

"Shan Yu, which means the owner of the vast land, and the plough is lonely! It is the meaning of the Son of Heaven! ”

In the midst of a noisy cheer, she shouted with all her might: "Brother, you are the king of all the tribes, and the proud son of heaven outside the fortress!" The plough of the grassland is lonely and single! ”
