Chapter 118: Battlefield on the Western Front!
The battle in the east is in full swing, and the Xiongnu in the west are already ready to move.
Prairie, wolf court.
"Father, Beihu is now attacking Donghu with all his might, it's better for us to ......"
Tou Mandanyu is waiting for the arrival of the four major tribal leaders, and Da is chatting with Tou Mandanyu.
Hearing Heda's words, Tou Manshan Yu shook his head and sighed lightly.
"Heda, you are so impatient, if I am gone, how can you hope to become Shan Yu."
He Da was stunned, bent down and said, "Father......"
Tou Man waved his hand.
"I know what you're trying to say. Now the four Huns plus the Wolf Court, which one is not with different thoughts. It took me a lifetime to get these four tribes to form an alliance, but they only got food because they followed me, do you think they will obey my orders if I can't fill my stomach with them one day? ”
"Titomur is not so simple, even if Er'er can successfully take Donghu, he will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Losing both sides is the best outcome for us. As you said, we took the opportunity to occupy the territory of Beihu, do you think that Hedu and Shalinmu in the north will sit idly by? This is their chance to grow! ”
"At that point, this fragile alliance will fall apart in an instant."
He Da frowned and said, "Can we just keep letting them have their own ghosts?" Especially that Heduye, who was extremely disrespectful to his father in the Wolf Court last time! ”
Tou Mandan's eyes were slightly cold, and he did not reprimand Heda again.
"Heda, that's exactly what I expect from you. You're capable, ambitious, and that's a good thing. When the time comes, we will unify the grassland, it is a unification in the true sense, everyone will bow down to the Wolf Court, and I will build a country like the Qin people! ”
Heda suddenly realized that his face was happy.
It turned out that the father had already made a plan, and the child also had this idea. Only by turning the grassland into a country, as the Qin people did, can we compete with the Qin people. As now, the tribes nominally obey their father's orders, but in fact they are like scattered cattle and sheep, and we will never be able to defeat the Qin people. ”
Historically, it was during the Qin and Han dynasties that the Xiongnu gradually grew stronger, forming a nomadic collective with a truly national nature, threatening the Central Plains for nearly two thousand years!
That's why I'm so anxious to start a war against them, once the Xiongnu have integrated all the tribes on the steppe, it will be almost impossible for Great Qin to destroy them at that time.
"I just don't know when."
Tou Mandan's deep eyes seemed to devour all the grasslands as far as his eyes could see.
"The opportunity is coming soon!"
Soon, the four tribal leaders gathered in the Wolf Court.
Hedu also still has the expression of the first and second expressions of the king of heaven, and after everyone is seated, he will be the first to speak.
"Shan Yu, we didn't return last fall, but we have to plan hard this spring!"
Tou Manshan Yu regained his calm expression and nodded.
"The leader of Hedu is right, this time I have sent scouts to investigate everywhere, and the mysterious Qin army seems to have disappeared in Qilian Mountain. My guess is that what happened to Hulmu was just an accident, and we don't have to be afraid. ”
Sha Linmu agreed: "Shan Yu is right, how can the Qin army have that strength, we were bluffed for a while. ”
Mu Ert and Wan Da Zhi did not speak, silent, not knowing what they were thinking.
Hedu also saw the expressions of the two, thinking that they were frightened, and hurriedly got up and said loudly: "Shan Yu, I, Hedu, am willing to be a striker!" This time, I want to give those Qin troops in Qilian Mountain a good look! ”
Tou Manshan Yu glanced around, and saw that Mu Erti and the two did not speak, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Doesn't anyone else want to be a pioneer?"
Sha Lin Mu was afraid that Mu Erti and the two would take the lead, so he got up closely: "Shan Yu, my Shalin Department is willing to follow the Hedu Department and jointly attack Qilian Mountain!" ”
Seeing the performance of the two, Mu Erti slowly spoke.
"Shan Yu, our department is already in the southern part of the grassland, if we are the forward, I'm afraid the two divisions of Hedu will not be able to keep up. So I'm willing to wait and agree with the Hedu Department as a pioneer. ”
Wan Dayuan followed up and said: "The Wan Da Department also agrees with the Hedu Department to be a pioneer. ”
Hedu also sneered, squinted at Mu Erti and the two, and said sarcastically: "Why, you were frightened by Qin Jun's bluff? I'm not afraid! ”
Mu Erti rarely didn't fight back, and said lightly: "I'm thinking about you, Hedu, don't you thank me, forget it, and mock me?" ”
Hedu was also speechless for a while.
People are afraid that they won't be able to catch up with the hot food, so let themselves go first, is there something wrong? Nothing is wrong with it!
After holding it for a long time, Hedu also clenched his fists and squeezed out: "Thank you, ...... Ang"
Everyone discussed for a long time, and finally finalized the details of the attack: Hedu also led 40,000 cavalry, known as 100,000 as the vanguard, to attack Wuwei; Shalimmu led 30,000 cavalry, also claimed to be 100,000, followed closely; Mu Erti and Wan Da led 70,000 cavalry, claiming to be 200,000, to attack Qinchang; After leading 50,000 cavalry from his headquarters, He Daze took the two eastern counties of Hexi in one fell swoop, thus cutting off the connection between the three western counties and Daqin.
Seeing that Hedu also went out with Sha Lin Muxing, Tou Manshan sneered.
"Don't you want to be a striker? Then let you do it! ”
Hearing this, Heda asked, "Is this what my father said about the timing?" ”
Tou Man Shan Yu nodded.
"The four major tribes have poured out, and although I can't be sure where the mysterious Qin army is, what I can be sure of is that they must exist. Even if they don't show up, the five counties of Hexi, especially Wuwei, are already building a strong city. Even if the two parts of Hedu can be captured, they will suffer heavy casualties. At that time, their life and death will be nothing more than my words! ”
"Remember, your 50,000 cavalry must not enter the battle too early, we just need to sit back and wait for them to fight the Qin army."
"The father is wise, the child will do it!"
Wan Dayuan here did not rush back to his tribe, but came together with Muerti.
"Brother Mu'er, why don't you let me compete for the vanguard? I don't need to say more about the benefits of taking the lead in Qilian Mountain, right? ”
Mu Erti looked in the direction of Qilian Mountain, and he was long gone, and he was so reckless that he was pressed to go out to duel.
"Brother Wanda, people's hearts are unpredictable. Trust me, you once saved my life, I won't hurt you! ”
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Wan Dayuan didn't ask any more questions, and hugged his fists and said, "Of course I believe you!" Then I'll go back to my tribe and reorganize my army, and we'll meet in your tribe!" ”
Over there, Hedu and Sha Linmu had already hurried back to the tribe, immediately regrouped their troops, and couldn't wait to go south.
Twenty days later, the 70,000 cavalry of the two had crossed the 70,000 cavalry of Mu'er and Wanda and continued their march south.
Two days later, Murti led two cavalry troops from the western steppe.
After crossing the western foot of Yinshan Mountain, Hedu also went straight to the western foot of Helan Mountain, passing through there to reach Wuwei, while Muerti passed through the oasis northeast of Qinchang and went straight to Qinchang.
The cavalry led by Heda stayed at the western foot of Yin Mountain.
Looking at the familiar scene, last time he was here to wait for the news of the annihilation of Hurda's army, and suddenly felt a cold wind coming, and hurriedly entered the big tent......
