Chapter 316: Xiongnu and Donghu Peace Talks
Chapter 316 The invasion of Donghu was both a disaster and a blessing for Maudun.
When he first received the news, Maudun's popularity had plummeted, and some of the tribal leaders below had even chosen Antulu to take his place.
And Maudun soon took advantage of this great war to re-establish his prestige. Under the leadership of Mao Dun, the Xiongnu army not only resisted the invasion of Donghu, but also pressed Donghu back for hundreds of miles.
Anturu looked at the high-spirited Mao Dun sitting on it, and felt very unhappy, but he still pretended to be happy, and sang and danced with the other leaders.
Anturlu had had the opportunity to replace Maudun before, but his modesty, and Mautun's kneeling, gave Maudun a chance.
Let Maudun completely turn over in this big battle. Maudun glanced quietly at Antulu and then at Haji, who was sitting nearby.
Maudun has always been wary of Anturu, and as for Haji, Maudun is also a little scared in his heart, and even now Hadji is even more threatening than Antulu.
In the battle with the Qin State, the Haji tribe suffered the least losses, and now its strength is also the strongest.
If Haji was Hagan's final say, Maudun wouldn't have been too worried, but Haji had returned.
This person who was loyal to Touman and was sent to Qin to die by himself was impossible to be loyal to himself. And on the grassland, even those who are loyal to themselves can rebel, let alone those who have enemies.
Maudun stood up, raised his wine glass, and suddenly the big tent fell silent, and everyone looked at Maudun.
Mao Dun exclaimed, "Tomorrow is the last battle!" I'm going to show those Donghu dogs! The strength of our Hun warriors, drive them out of our steppe! The Hun warriors are mighty! ”
"Big order is mighty! Big order is mighty! Big single in the mighty ······" The crowd shouted in unison.
The next day, the Xiongnu army, under the leadership of Mao Dun, and the Donghu army led by the king of Donghu lined up on the grassland.
As the horn sounded, Mao Dun and King Donghu charged forward, leading their respective armies to charge each other.
The war broke out, and in just an instant, hundreds of people fell off their horses, and blood continued to splash on the snow, staining the snow under the hooves of the war horses red.
After the two armies fought for nearly an hour, they each retreated to the previous front, not because either side was defeated, but because they were both tired.
Maudon wiped the red ice pick hanging from his beard, then reached out to wipe the hot blood from the knife.
On the opposite side, King Donghu had one of his two braids cut off, so King Donghu picked up a knife and cut off the other braid himself.
Donghu can be said to be very aggrieved, after learning that the Qin State defeated the Xiongnu and the wolf light cavalry defeated the grassland black sand, the king of Donghu decisively sent troops.
At first, it was very smooth, even if there was some resistance when the black sand of the grassland appeared, Donghu still went all the way west and occupied a large area of the grassland.
However, when Mao Dun led his troops to attack from the south side of his army, Donghu suffered heavy losses in the first battle, and then lost the grassland he had taken one after another, and now he was beaten back to his original place by Mao Dun only one step away.
This battle is related to the coercion of Donghu, if they are defeated by the Xiongnu with the help of Qin, then Donghu will become a joke, and even a piece of meat in the eyes of Qin.
Therefore, Donghu can't lose this battle, even if the king of Donghu dies in battle, he can't lose. Before this battle, King Donghu had arranged the aftermath and was determined to fight Mao Dun to the death.
Mao Dun took a few breaths and said: "Is this Donghu King crazy, how fierce he is today, the losses of our army will be very heavy if these continues." Antulu rode beside him and said, "If you don't have a duel, I'll go and take off the head of King Donghu!" At this moment, the Donghu camp on the opposite side suddenly separated and made a way.
I saw a Donghu man with two braids, stepping on the back of a horse, riding a war horse and slowly walking out of the Donghu camp.
Mao Dun and the others suddenly changed their faces after seeing this person, this person is the number one master of Donghu, Meng Xi!
Meng Xi twisted his neck and said to Mao Dun: "I heard that the guy in Sha was severely injured and recaptured back to the north, are you Huns sure that you Huns will continue to fight?" I, Moncey, can play with you. Mao Dun's face turned dark, if he wanted to kill himself and several leaders behind him in the midst of the army, it was like digging for something, but if he didn't fight, his prestige would inevitably be damaged, and then it would be time to give Antulu and Haji a chance.
Maudun glanced at Antulu and Haji, and saw that neither of them meant to speak, and immediately understood that these two guys would definitely not say a word at this time.
Moncey said: "Maudun, don't talk nonsense, either I will kill you among the ten thousand armies, or you will retreat a hundred miles, choose for yourself!" Mao Dun suddenly clenched his fists, if he retreated, his prestige that he had regained would be completely destroyed, but if he did not retreat, he was sure that he would be able to escape Mengxi's hunt.
Just as Maudon was in a dilemma, a man passed over Maudun's head and suddenly appeared in front of the two armies, and this person was none other than Blackhill.
After seeing Heiqiu, Meng Xi immediately frowned, Heiqiu's strength was comparable to him, and the two had only fought half a year ago.
Moncy looked at Heiqiu and asked, "Heiqiu, aren't you just asking about things between tribes?" How did you get here today? Heiqiu stood on the snow and said with a smile: "This is not a matter between tribes, but between the two grassland tribes of the Xiongnu and Donghu. Moncey lowered his feet, lay down on his horse, looked at Heiqiu, and asked, "Do you really want to take care of this?" ”
"That's right."
"Do you have to do it?"
"You have to do it." Meng Xi straightened up, took a deep breath, and said, "Since this is the case, it is not a way to fight like this, it is better to sit down and talk." How is it? My king? Finally, he looked at King Donghu and asked.
King Donghu knew that he couldn't fight it, otherwise he might have to fold here, so he nodded and agreed.
Monsey looked at Maudon and asked, "Then do you want to talk?" Mao Dun hesitated suddenly, do you want to talk about it?
Heiqiu turned to look at Mao Dun and said, "If you don't talk about it and the fight starts, then I won't be able to make a move." Mao Dun was taken aback, then nodded and said, "Okay! Talk! King Donghu rode to Mengxi's side and said, "Then let's agree that tomorrow, or here, one person and one ride, with the Black Hill and Mengxi as witnesses, how about it?" ”
"Okay, that's it." Maudon said. Heiqiu suddenly laughed and said, "Hahaha! Isn't this the end, Donghu has lived the days of Donghu, the Huns have lived the days of the Huns, why do you want to fight and kill, withdraw it! "After the time and place agreed in the peace talks were set, the two armies withdrew from the county at the same time.
Mao Dun also wanted to invite Heiqiu to the barracks for a drink, but in the blink of an eye, Heiqiu was gone, and there was not even a single footprint on the snow.
