Section 1510 Dark Forest
In the autumn and September of the seventh year of Yuande, it has been Hai (eighteen), Shunde (the old Dragon City). Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this moment, it was dawn, and Zhidu stood on the head of the former political and religious center of the Xiongnu Empire, overlooking the snow-capped mountains in the distance.
The sky is full of morning glow, and the winter morning of the grassland is particularly magnificent.
Since arriving in Shunde, Zhidu has been accustomed to coming in the early morning every day to welcome the sunrise.
At this time, Zhi Du always remembered the young faces in the Battle of Heyin.
Zhang Wei, the commander of the Bashang Army, was a burly young man, always full of vitality and all kinds of whimsical ideas, Zhi loved him very much, and was even ready to marry his daughter to him.
But this young man fell on the way of the charge.
When people found his body, they were shocked to find that the body of this high-ranking officer of the empire was full of enemy arrows, and his hands were strangled by the neck of a Hun nobleman, and his fingers were pinched into the flesh of the other party, strangled him directly!
Wang Feng, the captain of the Zuo Sima School of the Thorn Gate Army, is a son of the Taiyuan Wang family and was born in a famous family.
Zhidu still remembers the first time he saw this young man, he was dressed in white and fluttering, like a gentleman in the Book of Poetry.
However, he eventually collapsed under a hill in Heyin, and when he was found, his body was shattered.
His thighs and arms were cut off.
However, he still did not stop fighting, and crushed one of the Hun cavalrymen under him, his teeth biting deep into the throat of the opponent, biting his trachea, and his blood mixed with the blood of the enemy......
Thinking of these young people, these young people who should have a great future and future, Zhidu's heart felt a trace of sadness and sorrow.
But in an instant, this sorrow and sorrow turned into boundless power.
"Zhang Duwei, Wang Xiaowei......" Zhi Du thought about these young people, thinking of their faces that were once full of hope and vitality, he secretly decided: "The blood of all the monarchs will not be shed in vain!" This world must belong to Zhuxia! ”
Zhi is very clear that these young people died for the sake of Zhuxia.
Before they died, they all believed that they were fighting for the Three Kings and the Five Emperors, for the Son of Heaven and the Great Han, and for the Zhuxia nation.
Therefore, the only thing that can comfort them is to create a great era of the hegemony of the Zhuxia nation!
Let the wisdom and brilliance of the Three Kings and Five Emperors shine on the whole world.
Thinking like this, Zhi Du put his long sword into the sheath, and then slowly walked down the city tower, and ordered to the left and right: "Immediately convene the loyal army, the Loufu army, and the Juzhu army to discuss the affairs of the officers above Sima in Shunde......"
After thinking about it, he added: "Send someone to invite Guiyi Shan Yu and all the representatives of Dajia in Shunde to attend......"
It has been seven days since Zhidu came to Shunde.
For the past seven days, he has been familiarizing himself with the situation and getting to the bottom of it.
By now, the situation has almost been figured out.
He also has a general understanding of the current situation in today's Makunan.
Today's Makunan is divided into two main worlds.
The first is the pro-Han tribal forces with the Great Wall as the core.
These people are either the tribes that have long been infiltrated and controlled by the Han family, or those who have defected after the Battle of Mayi.
There are not many of them, and the total number is about 70,000 or 80,000.
But it's all about being reliable and loyal.
Today, these tribes have become part of the empire, and at least in wartime, the Han army can requisition grain, grass, horses, and even soldiers from these tribes.
On the other hand, there are various tribes scattered across the vast grasslands far from the Great Wall.
The minds of these tribes are also different.
Some people want to get by, some people go with the flow, planning to decide depending on the situation, and some people are ambitious, lurking in the wilderness of Makunan, waiting for an opportunity.
There is no doubt that Zhidu came to deal with these tribes this time.
Whether they are passable, or they are drifting with the tide and ambitious, all of them must be broken up, all of them must be dismembered, and all of them must be organized into households.
In the process, Zhi Du was convinced that the only reliable means and strength was iron and blood!
Only with unwavering will and unhesitating means can the Makunan problem be solved.
And what made Zhidu relieved was that before he arrived, the Lou Fu Army and the Loyal Warrior Army had already taken the initiative to solve the tribe within a radius of 300 miles near Shunde.
The heads of the chiefs of at least fifteen tribes are still hanging on the towers of Shunde.
The other tribes all chose to obey.
Their herdsmen, herdsmen, and even themselves, had to follow orders from Shunde, organize their households, and establish settlements one after another.
However, the problem of doing so is also significant.
First of all, it is the work of these dozens of tribes to organize the people together, which is too cumbersome, so that it occupies a lot of manpower of the Lou Fu army and the loyal army.
In addition, there is a serious lack of grassroots officials, and most of the current tribal settlements are actually just changing vests, and those who manage and control them are still the nobles and chiefs of the various tribes in the past.
It's just that the name has changed.
This is obviously not going to work!
Zhidu was already ready to let some veterans of the loyal and brave army unload their armor and transfer to civil affairs, to serve as Qiangfu, county lieutenant, and county commander in various places, so as to establish the first county of the Han Empire on the grassland near Shunde.
Even the name of the county and Zhi have already been thought of - Wuwei!
Use force to show the whole Makunan - you can only choose to surrender or die!
This matter can be implemented just by waiting to be reported to Chang'an and approved by the Son of Heaven.
But there is another problem, Zhidu has to be cautious.
Because the loyal army and the Lou Fu army have made big moves near Shunde in the past half month.
Now, the entire Makunan, and even Hexi and Makuhoku, have known the intentions of the Han family.
A lot of information confirms that the various tribes of the Makunan are intensifying their tandem and coordination.
They won't sit still!
It's a given!
Zhidu has also been prepared for this.
After all, he was ordered to come to Makunan to dig up the graves of the people who drew the bow, to dig up the foundations of their existence, to interrupt their traditions, and to exterminate their culture and customs.
In doing so, it will inevitably usher in a rebound, and a strong rebound!
In that year, Taigong was enshrined in Qi and was surrounded by the Dongyi tribe.
Taigong resolutely implemented the Zhou rites and used the Zhuxia method, didn't the Dongyi tribes also fight back?
There are also birds who come to the country of Lu, and they also have to use the sword of a gentleman to control the Quartet.
"The bus is thousands of rides, Zhu Ying is green, and the two spears are heavy. There are 30,000 public disciples, and Zhu Zhu is a shell. The number of disciples increases, Rong Di is Ying, Jing Shu is punishment, then I dare to admit it! Zhidu softly read the verses in this verse praising the deeds of the ancestors of Lu in the Lu country, and his eyes were full of sharpness!
"Yi Di is Ying, Jing Shu is punishment!" Reciting this famous poem repeatedly, Zhi Du raised his head and looked up at the sky, as if he saw the domineering spirit of the ancestors of the Lu Kingdom sitting on the palace.
Thousands of years ago, Bo Yu was ordered by the Duke of Zhou to take the country to Lu.
To the north of him, there are the Rong and Di tribes.
In his south, there are barbarians like Xu and Jing Chu and the remnants of Yin Shang.
Bo Bird did not have the slightest fear, let alone the slightest hesitation.
He resolutely took up his weapon and got into the chariot.
The bus is thousands of rides, Zhu Ying is green, the spear is like a forest, the bow is like rain, the 30,000 army is arrayed, the armor is distinct, the banner of the king of Zhou is flying high, and the war drums of Zhuxia are sounding.
Whether it is the Rong or the Di people, whoever jumps will beat whom!
Whether it is a remnant of Yin Shang like Xu Guo, or a careerist like Chu State who is eager to try, he will fight if he says it!
Yi Di is Ying, Jing Shu is punishment!
So, he hit a piece of heaven and a piece of the holy land of Zhuxia!
From now on......
"Then I dare to admit it!" With the hilt of the sword in hand, Zhi Du already knew what he should do.
Today, he has far better conditions than he did back then.
What did the bird have back then?
It's just 30,000 miscellaneous cards, and the enemies he faces include the Rong people, the Di people, and big countries like Xu and Chu.
There are also countless Dongyi tribes.
But he never feared or flinched.
With knives and swords, gee and spears, iron and blood, he laid an eternal mountain and river for the Zhuxia nation!
Today, he has the powerful Han Empire behind him.
The Son of Heaven rode hundreds of thousands, with a million! The Han Empire is rich and strong, just in the Longyou region of Daibei, the empire can pull out an elite of 100,000 people in minutes!
Under him, there are trump cards such as Lou Fu Army and Loyal Brave Army.
Moreover, unlike the army of birds, it is an outsider.
The loyal army, the Lou Fu army, is the people of the grassland.
They are familiar with geography and are well versed in the environment.
They are well-armed and well-trained.
And their enemies are nothing more than a group of defeated slaves and slaves.
A rabble, a bunch of grass chickens and dogs!
Therefore, Zhi Du already knows what he should do.
The kings and sages had already told him in books what he should do.
………………………………………………
The snow is falling, and the grassland is plugged in, and in an instant, it has entered the cold winter.
For those tribes far from the Great Wall and deep in the grasslands, winter is a nightmare.
Especially in the winter of these two years, they had an extremely difficult time.
The Huns were defeated in the battle of Yan Ji, and all the tribes were affected by the AOE and suffered heavy losses.
And the most injured are these non-headquarters, non-Xiongnu miscellaneous cards.
When the Xiongnu retreated north, they who remained in the south of the curtain almost fell into despair.
In order to survive, the various departments tried their best to kill each other.
For a bite to eat, countless people have come and gone.
Even so, famine was everywhere.
Only this year has it improved slightly.
But this is not the restoration of the grassland ecology, in fact, the evil fruits planted by the Huns, nature is far from smoothing them.
Large tracts of pasture and water sources have not been restored.
The loss of livestock and people is far from being made up – and even regressed.
If there were censuses and satellites in this era, people would be surprised to learn that in the past two years, the turf in the Makunan area has been declining, and the population and livestock numbers have plummeted!
It's not just large numbers of adults starving, dying, and being killed.
A large number of livestock, before they have time to grow up, are eaten.
What's even more terrifying is that the survival rate of newborns is almost zero......
Especially the children of herdsmen and herdsmen, they can't even open their eyes to see the world!
Tragic tragedies happen all the time.
Tribes began to flee.
However, this year, merchants from the Han Dynasty saved the Munan tribes.
They brought with them large quantities of grain, utensils, salt, and even luxury goods such as silk, iron, and bronze.
And all they wanted was furs, slaves and livestock, and even wool, which the Huns did not need at all in the past, they bought in large quantities.
Countless tribes, saved in an instant.
They only need to sell the livestock and slaves in their tribe that they cannot feed in the first place, and they can exchange them for life-saving food, and even luxury goods for sacrifice and enjoyment.
It's a great deal.
It is precisely because it is cost-effective, therefore, some smart people thought of it - since the Han Dynasty people want everything, then why don't I rob other people?
And so, the war began.
Clever people began to sneak attack, attack, and even attack their neighbors and friends in every possible way, killing their soldiers, taking women, livestock, and slaves captive, and exchanging a large amount of various supplies and even weapons from the Han Dynasty!
And this kind of thing, as long as one person takes the lead, others have to follow suit.
The reason is simple.
Even if you are sure that you are strong enough to protect yourself, and at the same time, you are kind-hearted and do not want to hurt others.
But the question is – how do you make sure that no one else comes to hurt you?
Even if you're strong enough to protect yourself, however, now, your opponent has someone to buff him and provide weapons.
If you don't kill others, they will kill you!
The Makunan area was instantly transformed into a dark forest.
Every tribe is a hunter.
They must carefully hide their true intentions and powers, and everyone is suspicious of each other and embankment.
Whenever there is an opportunity, it is a person who will attack the tribe in front of him.
Even if the other party was once a friend or relative.
Because, the fact of blood tells everyone that you don't attack? But there is no guarantee that the other party will not attack!
In this dark forest for survival, there are several tribes that have quietly grown and strengthened in the midst of war.
The largest of them is the tribe called 'Changlin'.
This tribe, in the past Xiongnu Empire era, was just a slave tribe, and the whole clan was only three or five thousand people, huddled in a horn in the south of the curtain, and even Shan Yuting did not know that there was such a tribe.
However, when the Huns ebbed and there was a power vacuum in the south of the country, in the midst of the crisis, the Changlin tribe quickly became strong through expansion and war under the leadership of its leader Changlin Dangtu.
Today, the Changlin tribe has a population of tens of thousands.
There are also two teams of 4,000 horsemen, equipped with luxury equipment that even the Xiongnu headquarters could not have in the past.
These include a large number of bronze collars, longbows, horn bows, and even a large number of 'advanced' bronze helmets and short swords from the Han Dynasty.
It's really the number one tribe in the south of the Makunan, and a well-deserved overlord of the dark forest.
At this moment, Changlin Dangtu was sitting in his royal tent, looking at the nobles in his tent with a nervous expression.
Because, he just got the news that the people of the Han Dynasty have revealed their true colors!
All the tribes in the vicinity of Shunde for hundreds of miles no longer exist.
Their chiefs and nobles, all killed.
The people were all forced by the Han Dynasty to 'organize their households and join the people'.
What is the Household Qimin? Changlin Dangtu didn't know, but he knew that the Han Dynasty's move was digging up the roots of the people who drew the bow, and the Han Dynasty wanted to eliminate the people who drew the bow!
This is something he absolutely cannot tolerate!
