Chapter 207: Compare who is ruthless
Mao Dun looked at his henchmen for a long time, and then muttered to himself, "Strategist, there are some things that can't be said casually!" ”
"Lord Wang, you have to believe me, Shan Yu's messenger will definitely not be so simple!" The wooden drum beat insisted.
"What about the evidence? What evidence do you have? Why? Maudun said worriedly.
"The proof is that all this time has been an anomalous reaction alone! Lord Wang, if you think about these things together, don't you think there is a lot of room for it? The wooden drum beat the analysis.
"It's very true, but isn't it too decisive to conclude that my father Khan has a connection with the Han people based on this? What if he was talking to the old fellow Uvi about something? Maudon retorted.
"Even if you discuss affairs with King Youxian, then there is no need to hide from you, you are the future master of the grassland, what kind of things are worth hiding from you?" The wooden drum played and delved in.
Mao Dun, who was still swearing, was not calm when he heard this, indeed, what kind of thing is worth hiding from the two of the grassland? It's definitely not going to be a good thing anyway!
"Lord Wang, it may be that I am too worried, I think we should wait a little longer, wait and see if there will be any news from Atilu!" After thinking about it, I decided not to talk too much about it.
"That's all there is to it now, I hope it's just a misunderstanding!" Maudun already had a hint of faith in the words of the wooden drum. After all, in the grassland, feelings and the like are the least valuable, and they can be sold at any time.
At this time, Li Mingyuan was in high spirits and set off with the team to the camp of the Huns, along the way. It wasn't that a Hun scout appeared around, apparently spying on the team. But it was not expected by the Huns. This Han cavalry does not seem to be as timid as they remember, but has an indescribable arrogance.
"Here, the Huns' brigade is coming!" Gao Zhiming looked intently at a team that was coming rapidly in the distance, and frowned slightly. Everyone looked up, and sure enough, a group of cavalry galloped in the distance, kicking up billowing smoke and dust, and the rumbling horses' hooves were mixed with the sonorous sound of swords, and the mist emitted by many war horses. There are countless faces that have been weathered and frosted.
"It deserves to be a nation right away. This is much more sensational than the cavalry of my tiger Ben charging! "Li Mingyuan's first personal contact with the cavalry of the Huns' brigade was still slightly shocked.
"Hmph, what's the big deal. Give us 100,000 good horses. Guarantee to beat the Huns to the ground! A general said disdainfully.
Complaints about subordinates. Li Mingyuan just smiled slightly and did not respond. A strong cavalry is not something that can be built with a few horses. No matter how good the horses are. It is also a tool, and the key is to look at the person riding the horse. The Huns grew up on horseback. The degree of cooperation with the horses is far from being comparable to that of the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army.
"Everyone give me spiritual points, if anyone loses face in front of the Huns, if I don't clean him up, Lord Hou will also clean him up!" Li Mingyuan glanced around everyone and found that the big guys were quite full of spirits, so he greeted them with his head held high.
Touman was still more concerned about this matter, because this batch of grain and silver was too important to him. Although he knew in his heart that Xiahou Yong would not obediently pay according to the number, he felt that it was a little bit more extortive. If the Han people knew each other, he could consider only letting Zuo Xian's royal troops make some tentative attacks, after all, now was indeed not the right time to fight a war.
In order to prevent outsiders from detecting that he had contact with the Han people in private, after learning that the envoy was about to arrive at the camp, Touman immediately sent his own guards to welcome people back, so as not to be seen by those who were interested.
"You are the envoys sent by the Han Chinese!" The leading Hun general is called Hu Yanhao, who is the head of this group of Hun armor horses. In childhood, the Huns rode sheep and hunted birds and rats with smaller bows and arrows, and as they grew up, they began to shoot slightly larger and cunning animals, such as foxes and rabbits.
From an early age, they battled with these animals and learned to devise ways to capture and hunt. When they succeeded in catching their prey, they lit a fire in the wilderness and roasted its remains for consumption. When they can draw the bow and learn to shoot arrows, they will be organized into armored cavalry, ready to fight at the needs of the tribe! And the Hun armored cavalry exercised in this way is comparable to the elite cavalry of the Han people.
Li Mingyuan looked at the condescending Hu Yanhao, and felt quite unhappy, he was here to negotiate, not to surrender. Although this kind of negotiation belongs to the type of errand, but how can it also represent the Han people of the whole world, why are you a small Hun leader, why are you majestic in front of Lao Tzu?
"It was, but not anymore!" Li Mingyuan shot back with the same contemptuous gaze.
Hearing this, Hu Yanhao's smile suddenly condensed on his face, the Huns were the same as other nomadic peoples, "transferred with animal husbandry", and their livestock were mostly horses, cattle, and sheep, while camels and donkeys were relatively few. Their life is to live on water and grass, there is no fixed place to live, and they do not take farming as their main way of life, but they have a strong desire for possessiveness, and each person has a piece of land on the grassland.
Due to their national culture and little contact with other civilizations, the Xiongnu did not have a written language, and everything was transmitted orally. Because of this, they attach great importance to their words and deeds, take responsibility for what they say, and often do what they say. They were quite decisive in everything they did, and never changed their decisions, and if a Hun changed his decision in the course of doing things, it would be considered a shameful act and would be despised by others.
Of course, these conditions have changed to a great extent after the marriage between the two sides during the Han Dynasty, but only a few have been affected by the change, such as the Han Yuanhao tribe, etc., and many conservative Xiongnu tribes still live according to the customs of their ancestors.
Hu Yanhao is a typical figure among the Xiongnu conservatives, he is illiterate, but he does not allow anyone to deceive himself, let alone tease himself, especially since this person is still a Han Chinese.
"Han, what do you mean by that? Is it an envoy, could it be that you are teasing the warriors of the Huns? Hu Yanhao stared at Li Mingyuan and said with a fierce voice.
I have to say that the Huns are still more hideous, and they look quite terrifying, but this trick has little effect on Li Mingyuan, when he was a soldier in his previous life, he was a drug lord who was a hundred times more ruthless than this kind of person, and the arms dealers have seen a lot, and this kind of stubble role also scares and scares those who have never seen the world. Even the generals behind him have no change in their faces, everyone is human, two shoulders and a head, who is afraid of whom! (To be continued......)
