Chapter 81: Fighting

Although they were wrong, in a sense, it was relative.

"Take him down first, let him think about it." Ashye glared at Bolmu fiercely, and said directly to Tuomur next to him.

"Yes!" Tuomur's face was also very unsightly, because this trouble was brought by Bormu, and if it wasn't for Bormu, the warriors of their tribe would not need to go on the expedition.

I have to say that this is also a characteristic of the steppe, whether it is the growth of the Turkic tribes or the growth of the Mongolian tribes, when they are strong, there are many tribes attached to them, and these tribes will send troops, pay taxes, and even obey their management.

The soldiers of these tribes will also die for the sake of these powerful tribal leaders, but in reality these small tribes do not have any sense of belonging to these large tribes, and these large tribes do not care about these small tribes.

In the eyes of these powerful tribes, as long as they are strong enough, there are more and more small tribes attached to them, and they don't care about the life or death of these small tribes.

The same is true in times of war, people like Tuomur don't care about the lives of other people who are attached to their tribe, they only care about the lives of their own tribesmen.

This is also the reason why, when these powerful tribes are lonely, the empires built by nomads quickly disappear, because they have no cultural heritage, so they have no sense of belonging, no sense of honor.

Throughout the history of the Tang Dynasty, it can be seen that although the Tang Dynasty solved the Turks in the early stage, but to the Tang Dynasty tacitly, the Turks rose again, but with the decline of the Tang Dynasty, the Turkic Empire of the steppe also declined quickly, and once again entered the era of countless tribes fighting each other.

It was not until the Mongol tribes became strong that the steppe was unified again.

And Mongolia still has this nation in later generations, because Mongolia established a unified and complete country, Genghis Khan completely unified Mongolia, and established the Yuan Dynasty, so to the rise of the Jurchens later, the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, Mongolia did not seem to be like the tradition on the steppe, sincerely obeyed the Manchu Qing, and then also changed the title of its own tribe, but still called itself Mongolia.

That's why culture matters!

There were so many nomadic tribes in history, but in modern times, more than a thousand years later, almost all those who can leave a name in modern times are nomads who have established powerful countries.

After Bormu was taken down, Ashye looked at Mingyue with a wry smile: "Mingyue girl, do you think we still can't fight?" ”

"Actually, even if you didn't see Bormu, didn't you guess that Bormu and they did it first, Chief? When you asked me, you already have the answer, Chief, don't you? Mingyue said with a smile.

Ashye was speechless for a moment, indeed, he had already guessed.

And the reason why he is angry is only because the enemy is strong, and if the enemy is not strong, he will not care whose hand it is.

"Okay, so how are we going to fight?" Ashye nodded helplessly.

"There is a saying in our grassland, a wolf can't eat a hound, and a storm can't blow an eagle. So we can't sit idly by and ignore this matter, no matter what the reason is, we must be beaten. Mingyue said seriously.

"Do you remember the words your father left for you when he returned to the Immortal Heaven?" Mingyue looked at Ashye and asked.

Ashye was stunned for a moment, although he didn't know how Mingyue knew about this, but he understood what Mingyue wanted to say, the sentence left by his father was also a proverb on the grassland: "When you are not strong enough, you must rely on the strength of others." ”

Ashye sank his heart and thought about it carefully, and after a moment, Ashye raised his head and said: "Miss Mingyue, you are right, but war, if you master the time, you will take the initiative, and obviously now that the other party has the time, he is around our tribe, and he is visiting these small tribes around him every day, we can't sit idly by." ”

Mingyue smiled, and said with a smile on her face: "Chief, in fact, there is another sentence, it is not only the steel knife that can kill people, but also time and patience, isn't he Huo Gang visiting these tribes, but he doesn't kill them?" ”

"Anyway, if he doesn't kill people, what are we afraid of? As long as you can bear it, leader, we can wait until the soldiers of Loulan, Gaochang, and Yanqi come over! Even the chieftain can send a messenger to the king's city to report the matter. Mingyue said seriously.

"Of course, this loss must be the prestige of the leader, the army has been assembled, whether to fight or not, it depends on how you decide the leader." Mingyue said casually, as if she was telling an irrelevant matter.

"It's a choice, there's no right or wrong." Mingyue looked at Ashye, the smile on her face was put away, and she began to become serious.

Ashye was silent for a moment, he understood Mingyue's words, this is a choice, iron or patience, both of which can be said to be things that a leader must have, he is not an ordinary Turk, and if he wants to be a good leader, he must also make a choice.

Silence returned to the tent, and Mingyue didn't disturb Ashye's thoughts, in fact, as she said, it was a choice, there was no right or wrong.

The Turks have almost no recorded history, but the Han dynasty next to it has a long history, Mingyue is familiar with their history books, it can be said that among the emperors of the Han dynasty, both of them have famous people.

For example, hundreds of years ago, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is synonymous with martial arts, then Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty can be said to have exerted forbearance to the extreme! He hated Huo Guang to death, but he has been silently patient, even if Huo Guang died, he did not retaliate immediately, but still gave the Huo family a constant illusion, until he completely mastered the entire Han Dynasty, he directly killed the Huo family!

This is a kind of forbearance! It belongs to the emperor's ninja, but the one next to him, Mingyue shook his head invisibly, after all, he is just the leader of a tribe, not an emperor!

"I'm going to fight!" Ashye gritted his teeth, raised his head categorically and spoke.

Mingyue didn't have any surprise on her face, but nodded very simply: "Fight and fight, since the decision has been made, then the leader can't hesitate, fight, sooner rather than later, we will set off tomorrow!" ”

"Good!" Ashye's words were all held back, in fact, he still wanted to explain why he was fighting, because they had thousands here, close to 10,000 cavalry, 10,000 cavalry, and let the other party's 1,000 cavalry crisscross his land.

If this continues, his Ashye's status in the Western Regions will be completely gone, what prestige does he have? How else to lead these tribes?

It's just a pity that Mingyue seems to understand his thoughts and doesn't ask, which makes Ashye have no place to say what he wants to say.
