Chapter 208: Sitong City (2)

The protagonist stands on a high place not far from the "Sitong City", watching the commanders below gather together to communicate with each other because of the controversial order he just issued because of the legion, the entire Divine Envoy King Legion no longer has the scene of the protagonist's order and the three armies in the past, but the protagonist has expected it.

After all, this is the first time that the protagonist has ordered them to attack their original kindred, and even if the protagonist has previously been educated, it is impossible to guarantee that every commander will obey him.

Moreover, the rumors of the main nest "Qingqiu City" will more or less spread to "Dongyang City", and the protagonist is not unaware of those messengers who travel between the two places, in addition to looking for himself, he has also had contact with many male ants.

After watching the chaos of the scene not subside for a short time, the protagonist asks the herald to convey an update to all the commanders: commanders who disagree with the Divine Envoy King's orders can nominate a representative to express their opinions to the Divine Envoy King.

The order quickly paid off, and an older squad commander was elected to the protagonist.

What makes the protagonist more relieved is that several important ministers under his command, such as Rolling and Lan Bofei, did not accept the recommendation of the questionable male ants, and refused to come to confront the Divine Envoy King as representatives.

The male ant in front of him,The protagonist has the impression that it is a male ant from the main nest "Qingqiu City",When the protagonist first obtained the identity of the Divine Envoy King,,He joined the protagonist as the commander of the supplementary troops.,It's also a veteran of the war with the protagonist in the Reconquest Warใ€The war against the parasitic ants and the north bank of the Great River.ใ€‚

The protagonist is not a nostalgic person, but the commanders from the main nest do have a conflict of ideas and interests with themselves and the other commanders of the Divine Messenger King's legions.

This conflict was not deadly before, but it is deadly.

The protagonist looks at the male ant in front of him as if he were looking at a dead man. At this moment, the name of a historical figure came to his mind, and this figure did not leave any record of his appearance, but taught the world an idiom - kill chickens and make an example of monkeys.

This man is Mao Dun Shan Yu.

Mao Dun, the leader of the Huns, the Suo clan. He killed his father in 209 BC (the first year of Qin II) and established himself. During his reign, Mao Dunshan unified the northern grasslands for the first time and established a huge and powerful Xiongnu Empire, which was a talented military strategist and military commander among the Xiongnu people, and also the beginning of the fear of the Han people for the northern nomads in the Qin and Han dynasties, and even for thousands of years in the future.

Soon after Mao Dunshan ascended the throne, the king of Donghu took advantage of his unstable foothold and sent an envoy to ask for a thousand miles of horses. In order to paralyze Donghu, Mao Dun gave Maxima to the king of Donghu despite the opposition of his ministers. The king of Donghu got an inch, and asked for Shan Yu's clan, Mao Dun was very angry left and right, and asked to send troops to attack Donghu, but Mao Dun still met the requirements of the king of Donghu. King Donghu thought that Mao Dun was weak and could be bullied, and no longer took it seriously. Maodun took the opportunity to stabilize his rule, expand his armaments, and sent troops to raid Donghu, Donghu was caught off guard, the king of Donghu was killed, and his people and livestock were all obtained by the Xiongnu, and Donghu was destroyed. Mao Dunshan Yu took advantage of the victory to attack the Yueshi of Yongzhou in the Hexi Corridor and forced it to migrate westward. Thus the two-sided threat is lifted. Subsequently, he led the Xiongnu to conquer more than 20 countries such as Loulan, Wusun, and Hujie, and controlled most of the Western Regions. To the north, it conquered the countries of Hunyao, Qu She, Ding Ling, Qi Kun, and Xinli, and to the south, annexed the territories of the south kings of Loufu and Baiyang Henan, and reoccupied the land south of the Hetao. The Xiongnu have a vast area from Yinshan in the south, Baikal Lake in the north, Liao River in the east, and green mountains in the west.

But what left the deepest impression on the world was the story of Mao Dundan's "Ming Di Killing His Father" in his early years.

Mao Dun Shan Yu was originally the son of his father, Tou Manshan Yu, and should inherit the throne of Khan. But later, Tou Mandan gave birth to a younger son in the Yan clan he loved, and Tou Mandan Yu wanted to kill Mao Dun and set up his youngest son as the crown prince, so he sent Mao Dun to the Yue clan as a hostage.

As soon as Mao Dun arrived at Yue's, Tou Mandan attacked Yue's on horseback, Yue's wanted to kill Mao Dun, Mao Dun stole Yue's good horse and fled back to the Xiongnu on it. Toumandan, believing him to be brave, ordered him to command 10,000 cavalry.

If you are unkind, I will be unjust, and Mao Dun already had the intention of killing his father and seizing the throne at this time, and he made a kind of arrow, called Mingdi. While training his men in the art of archery on horseback, he ordered: "Whoever does not shoot the target of my chirping dischief with all my might will be beheaded." โ€

Maudun was the first to shoot birds and beasts, and if someone did not shoot the target of the arrow, Maudun killed them. Soon after, Maudun shot his beloved horses with arrows, and if the people on the left and right did not dare to shoot, Maudun immediately killed them. After some time, Maudun shot his beloved wife with arrows, and some of the people on the right and left were afraid to shoot, and Maudun killed them again.

After some days, Maudun went out hunting, and shot the horse of the head Mandanyu with a rattling arrow, and the people on the left and right followed suit. So Maudun knew that the people around him were all usable people.

Then he followed his father Tou Man Dan Yu to hunt and shot Tou Man Dan Yu with a sound arrow, and the people on his left and right followed him to shoot arrows at Tou Man Dan Yu, and Tou Man Shan Yu died on the spot. Later, Maudun killed his stepmother, younger brother and those who disobeyed him, and only then did he establish himself as Shan Yu and seize power.

Maudun's method of establishing supreme prestige is very simple and brutal, that is, to use people's fear of death to make them form a mindset - if they do not obey, they will be killed.

All living beings have an innate fear of death, human beings, birds and beasts, and ants as well.

All living beings know that they should avoid fire, hibernate in cold weather, or eat more, or find a place to warm themselves, which is the fear of death and attachment to life.

In the ant nest, even if it is a single worker ant or soldier ant, these individuals are insignificant to the entire ant nest, but when they encounter danger, these ants will still run frantically for their lives, and do not give up their lives at will because they are dispensable for the ant nest.

And the more intelligent the species, the stronger the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm. Earthworms know that sun exposure will kill them, but every day there are still countless earthworms that take advantage of the dark or rainy time to burrow out of the ground, and then accidentally strayed into the hard ground and did not have time to return to the ground, and finally were dried by the sun. But the monkeys will never run to a place where they can observe hidden dangers.

Male ants are obviously smart, but they are also afraid of death. So, the protagonist has a way to get them to obey in a short time!
