"Clan... Lord Lieutenant, don't you send someone to Jiuyuan City to ask for help? ā
It was the elder of a large clan of the Donghu tribe who followed Hu Zhong to the north who spoke, and as soon as he spoke, the elders of the other major clans also looked at Hu Zhong who was quietly looking at the countless figures of horses riding together on the vast grassland in the distance.

From the time Hu Zhong left Xianyang and led more than 300,000 Donghu people to drive more than 1 million cattle and sheep all the way north to Langjuxu Mountain, at the request of Mohuer, the Donghu people's title to Mohuer was no longer the previous patriarch, but the county captain.
On the vast grassland covered by a blue-yellow felt carpet, the cavalry of the Donghu clan and the Hun cavalry who came south to recapture the holy land of Langjuxu Mountain were fighting to the death.
Every second, countless Donghu Jian'er or Xiongnu barbarians fell from their horses, and then were trampled into meat and mud by the galloping war horses, which became the soil nourished to the grassland.
The Hun cavalry had appeared near the camp of the Donghu clan a day earlier. However, as early as when the Hun cavalry was still hundreds of miles away from the Donghu camp, the cavalry scouts of the Donghu clan had already discovered the arrival of the Hun cavalry.
On the one hand, because of Hu Hai's warning, and on the other hand, the Donghu people, who had already experienced a sneak attack and almost wiped out their clan, also learned to use scouts to warn in advance.
Therefore, as soon as Maodun arrived, the cavalry of the Donghu clan had already completed the assembly, and rushed up against the Hun cavalry who were rushing to kill.
Two peoples who have lived on the prairie for generations already have a hatred that cannot be dissolved. The collision staged again on the prairie this time must be like Mars hitting the Earth.
This prairie, which could have housed countless grassland tribes, is now only the victor who can stay.
If you don't die, I die.
Just as Hu Hai expected, winter is coming. Mao Dun really couldn't withstand the pressure of the Huns and went south. Whether it was to recapture Wolf Juxu Mountain or to regain the halo he had lost because of the Donghu clan, this battle meant belonging to the prairie for Mao Dun and Hu Zhong.
The 150,000 string-controlled cavalry is the largest force that Maudon can gather now. Naturally, there are many old people among them. This is all the men of the Huns who can occasionally get on the horse.
It is a man who can get on a horse, not a young man who is skilled in a bow horse.
The 100,000 cavalry is all the young and strong of Hu Zhong, the 300,000 Donghu people. Some old and weak, Hu Zhong was not recruited. Because the Donghu clan is different from the Xiongnu clan in Maudun, they still have a giant behind them.
In terms of numbers, the Hun cavalry was 50,000 more than the Donghu cavalry. In terms of overall quality, the Hun cavalry was almost the same as the Donghu cavalry equipped with the Great Qin standard cavalry armor.
The battle has been going on for more than an hour, and the more than 200,000 cavalry who have been strangled together have already shown their exhaustion. The defense line composed of the cavalry of the Donghu clan has been crumbling under the crazy impact of the Hun cavalry.
The defeat has been revealed!
"Nope! The warriors of the clan can still hold on! The Huns are also at the end of their crossbows! Hu Zhong was silent for a while, and suddenly refused.
"Patriarch. The warriors of the clan can indeed hold on, but there are still more than 200,000 clansmen behind us. Once the warriors in the clan are killed and wounded, our wives and children, the cattle and sheep in the old and small clans will become the trophies of the Huns! ā
Elder Donghu, who had spoken earlier, prostrate himself on the ground and sobbed and persuaded.
"Go and gather all the men in your clan who can mount their horses, and prepare to gallop to the aid of our warriors."
Hu Zhong quietly looked at the two groups of people in front of him who were still fighting to the death, and said lightly.
"Patriarch, Emperor ...... of the Qin people"
"Your Majesty!" Hu Zhong suddenly turned his head to look at the elder who spoke.
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty. His Majesty the Emperor only asked the general to give us 100,000 people of weapons and armor, and all the elite and strong people in the clan have been gathered, and if they are summoned again, they will all be old and weak! And we don't have any armor or weapons for them! ā
"All the men are called. Maudun will retire! Just go! ā
Hu Zhong turned his head to look at the Donghu cavalry, who had been forced to retreat by the Hun cavalry's crazy charge.
"Yes!" The elder reluctantly got up, mounted his horse, and galloped away.
In less than a moment, the sound of the horn suddenly sounded from the camp of the Donghu clan. Begin to reverberate in the endless steppe.
"Didn't the patriarch say that His Majesty the Emperor has promised that as long as the Huns come to attack, we can ask General Meng for help at any time, and General Meng will definitely send troops to rescue His Majesty's Donghu people. Why did the patriarch insist that the warriors of the clan would fight and shed blood with the Huns? ā
An old man with white hair asked.
This is the current tribal elder of the Donghu clan. In the past, the authority of the Great Elder who was in charge of the sacrifice could even compete with the king of the Donghu clan, but now the Donghu clan has long since lost the royal family, only the patriarch Mohuer. The authority of the Great Elder has also been lost.
"The Great Elder has never been to Xianyang, and he has not met His Majesty the Emperor. This question should be asked! ā
Although the power of the Great Elder of the Donghu clan is no longer comparable to that of the past, Hu Zhong still has great respect for the Great Elder.
"Great Qin is not a Huns! His Majesty the Emperor is not even the Maudun child! When Hu Zhong said His Majesty the Emperor, he bowed to the south and saluted from afar.
"Xianyang and his party, Mo Huer will never forget the wealth and strength of Daqin! Even if the Huns and all the people of my Donghu clan are exhausted, it is impossible to defeat Great Qin! Even General Meng's Jiuyuan Army couldn't defeat it! If there is a next time, Mo Huer will definitely bring the Great Elder to Xianyang to meet His Majesty the Emperor! ā
When Hu Zhong spoke, his eyes flashed with envy and awe. The towering Great Qin Heroic Martyr's Tower, the twelve huge golden figures that are not like human tracks, the well-planned streets of Xianyang City and the solemn and majestic Xianyang Palace all emerge in front of you.
"I, more than a million people of the Donghu clan belong to His Majesty the Emperor, if everything depends on His Majesty the Emperor, what is the use of my Donghu clan? Now that His Majesty is ordering General Meng to use troops against the Qiang and Yue clans, it is the time when my Donghu clan is sharing worries for Your Majesty, how can we easily ask General Meng for help?
This time, Mohuer can hear a word from the Qin people, and his heart will be different if it is not my clan! In addition, my Donghu clan was attached to the Xiongnu first, and His Majesty was in the rear, how could Your Majesty not have the slightest defense against more than one million people of our clan?
His Majesty the Emperor divided my more than 100,000 Donghu people into three places, and let Mohuer lead more than 300,000 people to occupy the Xiongnu Holy Land to build a new county, why? Hundreds of years ago, why did the dog Rong clan who dominated the prairie extinct? The Great Elder must have known more than Mohull.
The tribesmen are nomadic in the savannah, and nature is free. But today it is the Huns who want to destroy our people, and who will they destroy our people in the future? If you want to protect my Donghu clan from generation to generation, these more than 300,000 Donghu people have all died in battle, so what's the harm of this wolf living in Xu Mountain?
We are waiting to fight to the death today, His Majesty the Emperor is the son of heaven, and he can know the loyalty of my Donghu clan. ā
