Qin Dong could hardly believe that he was betrayed by a liaison one moment ago and hunted down, and he crossed over after waking up one second. Looking at his thick and powerful arms, the bulging green tendons on the back of his hands, a standard cowhide armor, and a sheathed scimitar hanging from his waist, he received the original memory of this body, and only then did he know that he had traveled to the royal court of the Xiongnu Empire at the end of the ancient Roman era in Europe, which was Hungary in later generations, and he was one of the Han slave soldiers in the guard under Erak, the son of Attila of the Huns, and his name was also Qin Dong.

The owner of this body, Qin Dong, was originally the son of a merchant from the Northern Wei Dynasty of China, the famous heroine Mulan was in this era, the merchant brought his caravan with a large amount of silk and porcelain to Constantinople, the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, to do business, went to be sacked by bandits, most of the caravan was killed, only the remaining three family members were alive, the merchant wanted to cry without tears, so he had to take the remaining three family members to stay, and later married a Roman woman in Constantinople and gave birth to Qin Dong, Ten years later, the Huns came, besieged Constantinople, the merchant and his son Qin Dong and the remaining three Han people went out of the city to work together and became slaves of the Huns, and within a year the merchant died of illness, leaving only Qin Dong and three other Han people, Qin Dong was only thirteen years old at that time, and after two years Qin Dong was fifteen years old, he grew strong and strong, and there was a set of family heirloom horse warfare marksmanship left by his father, the strength of horse warfare is not trivial, and he was selected as the guard of the Xiongnu prince Erak, and it has been two full years now.

Roman Empire, Attila the Huns? Hiss-Qin Dong couldn't help but gasp, who is Attila? He was as famous as Genghis Khan Temujin, and 750 years before Genghis Khan Temujin, he led the Hun Iron Cavalry to bring terror and destruction to Europe, he led a terrifying Iron Cavalry across the European plains, and established a vast empire across Germany, Russia, Poland and Southeastern Europe. This title indicates the fear and helplessness of the Europeans towards Attila and the Hun cavalry he led.

The Xiongnu originally lived on the Mongolian Plateau, living on nomadic herds, often harassing the territory of the Han Empire in the south, the Han Dynasty fought with it for a hundred years, and was defeated by the famous generals such as Wei Qing and Huo Qubing of the Han Dynasty and fled to the northern grassland, and later it was divided into two, the Southern Xiongnu went south and annexed the Han Dynasty, and the Northern Xiongnu began to move west in 91 AD.

After disappearing for more than two hundred years, this westward migration of the Huns appeared in 290 A.D. in the Alan, east of the Don River in the steppes of South Russia, and north of the Caspian Sea.

With their recuperation and supplies in the kingdom of Alan, the Northern Xiongnu were completely rejuvenated, and their predatory and greedy nature made them covet the steppes west of the Don River. In 374 AD, the Huns, under the leadership of Dadan Yu Baramber, crossed the Don River and launched an attack on the Ostrogoths, who were the opponents of the Huns, who had never fought with cavalry before the arrival of the Huns, and had never seen such a swift offensive. Under the overwhelming blows of the Hun cavalry, the Ostrogoths fled westward to the Danube. In search of a new place to live, the fugitives attacked the Visigothic tribes along the way, uprooting them and driving them further west.

Soon, on the route of the Visigoths, the Vandals, the Franks, the Burgundians, and the Anglo-Saxons, like rolling snowballs, poured westward one after another. The Huns' attack drove almost all the Germanic tribes.

After sixty years of conquest, the Huns grew stronger, and Attila finally sat on the throne of the Hun king, who was more ambitious and aggressive than his predecessors. Historically, Attila has been a prominent character. The Xiongnu Empire during Attila's period was the last and most glorious chapter in the history of the Xiongnu. He humiliated the Romans and frightened the Germans, and had a great power to frustrate and helpless the Westerners.

Qin Dong never thought that he would travel to the same era as Attila, in this period, China was in the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, large and small warlords fought for years, and the Roman Empire was divided into the Eastern Roman and Western Roman Empires as early as 395, and it was in the waning state. The Roman Empire had long since been conquered by Attila.

Qin Dong had studied this period of history and the famous Battle of Shalong when he was studying at the military academy before, and he made no secret of his preference when he saw this historical record, and when he first learned about Attila's great deeds, he was fascinated by these Huns, the role of their history, their dramatic fate, their outstanding military and diplomatic genius, and their influence in the Western world as a true Eastern people, to be precise, a descendant of Yan and Huang. It can also be said to evoke a strong emotion in him.

Qin Dong knew that the famous Battle of Chalons had happened, and after the defeat of Attila in the Battle of Chalon, he attacked the Gaul region south of the Alps and northern Italy, and his troops were under the city of Rome, and he could take the city of Rome, but the Western Roman Emperor Valens III was far away from Ravenna, and Pope Leo I persuaded Attila to retreat.

After a year's recuperation from years of war and illness, Attila married a Germanic girl, Ildi.

Suddenly, someone tapped him on the shoulder, and he heard a Chinese voice behind him: "Young master, you drank so much last night, why did you get up so early?" ”

Qin Dong looked back and saw that it was a middle-aged man who was close to forty years old, and his mind was full of memories, knowing that this person was one of the family members brought by his father from the Northern Wei Dynasty of China, named Liu San, Qin Dong showed a smile and said, "Uncle Liu, what are you doing?" By the way, what about Uncle Ma and Uncle Wang? ”

Liu San pointed to the barrel in his hand and said with a helpless expression: "Milking the mare's milk, those two old immortals are also milking the mare, there are dozens of mares to milk the mare's milk today, if you can't finish it, dinner is not found, hey, when is this day a head!" ”

As a slave, Qin Dong has a deep understanding of the situation, if he can't eat enough and don't warm up, the master will add punches and kicks or whip it down if he is not satisfied, and he is covered in injuries, but fortunately, they are Han, and the Hun master sees them as Han people, and they are very hardworking, and they generally do not embarrass them, but if they can't finish their work, they will be whipped and have no food to eat.

Qin Dong got up and patted Liu San on the shoulder and said, "Uncle Liu, don't worry, I've already saved some money, and I'm just a little bit close to being able to redeem the three of you!" ”

When Liu San heard this, he immediately looked excited, grabbed Qin Dong's arm and hurriedly said, "Young Master, you, what you said is true?" ”

"Of course, believe me, I am now the bodyguard of the eldest prince, and the eldest prince often has rewards!" Qin Dong said with a smile.

Liu San nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, those Hun nobles will have a lot of money as long as they reward a little casually, you must work hard, and don't be sold to others by the eldest prince again!" By the way, you hurry back, today is the second day of Da Shan Yu marrying a new daughter-in-law, the eldest prince will definitely go to see Da Shan Yu and the new Yanzhi clan, you go back quickly, if the head of the guard can't find you, you will be in trouble."

Attila marries a new daughter-in-law? Qin Dong seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle Liu, what day is today?" ”

Liu San said: "It should be March 16."

"Uncle Liu, do you know what year it is?"

Liu San scratched his head and asked, "What year?" This is stumped for me, if we follow the chronological algorithm of our Central Plains, I really don't know which emperor is reigning now, but if we follow the chronological algorithm of the Westerners, today should be the twenty-eighth year of the reign of the Great Qin Emperor Valentinian III."

Qin Dong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly realized that the Christian era has not yet been adopted, and it will take another hundred years or so for European countries to gradually adopt the AD era, and before the adoption of the AD era, the chronology methods of European countries are varied, some use the year of the city was built, some use the age of the emperor's reign, some use the name of the city consul, and so on.

Qin Dong calculated, if it was the twenty-eighth year of Emperor Valentinian III, then this year should be 453 AD, etc., March 16, 453 AD? Qin Dong suddenly remembered, didn't Attila suddenly die on the wedding night of March 15 in history? It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that the guards found that Attila had not yet come out of the new house and felt that something was wrong, so they forced their way into Attila's new house, and found that Attila had been dead for a long time, while the poor bride was curled up in the corner of the bed, shivering.

After Attila's death, his sons fought among themselves, and the powerful Xiongnu Empire collapsed in just one year, and the Germanic barbarians who belonged to it suddenly rebelled, and the Huns were almost slaughtered, and only a few integrated into other peoples, and since then there has been no Xiongnu in this world.

Qin Dong remembered that he was the slave guard of the eldest prince Erak, and when those barbarians slaughtered the Huns, he would definitely not be spared, if he didn't want to die, he had to find a way to protect himself, and wait until the Hun Empire collapsed to master a strong enough army, and then he would not have to be afraid of being slaughtered by the barbarians.

Yes, you must find a way to save yourself, in this chaotic era where human life is cheaper than grass, only you can save yourself, Qin Dong didn't want to die again, he walked out of the tent and observed the position of the sun, and found that it was about twelve o'clock in the afternoon, which means that Attila had died last night, but it had not been discovered yet, and in the afternoon, the guards would break in when they saw that Attila had not come out.

Can you use this to your advantage? Qin Dong pondered for a while, immediately took the spear and horse harness in the corner of the tent, and ran towards the stable, shouting as he ran: "Uncle Liu, I'll leave first, I'll come to see you another day, and when I come, I'll redeem you, Uncle Ma and Uncle Wang!" ”
