Chapter 700: The New Xiongnu Shanyu
The Southern Xiongnu King's Court, Shanyu Yufuluo, and his brother Hu Chuquan saw Ma Yuan, the envoy from the Xia Palace, and showed hesitation.
"We are still monitoring the Tuoba Xianbei in the Helan Mountain area for King Xia. They are attacking the Xianbei tribes in the west and want to unify the Xianbei tribes."
Yu Fuluo reported to Ma Yuan about the movements of Tuoba Xianbei and glanced at Ma Yuan for a more time.
Ma Yuan was responsible for managing some vassal tribes. He seemed to realize something, so he said: "You continue to be optimistic about the Tuoba Xianbei for the King of Xia. If they have any abnormal movements, then report to the King of Xia's Mansion."
Ma Yuan gave a little instruction and quickly chose to leave the Southern Xiongnu tribe.
"Master Lu invites us to visit the Southern Xiongnu tribes, why do we leave so soon?"
The civil servants who accompanied Ma Yuan were very puzzled. Ma Yuan only stayed in the Southern Xiongnu royal court for less than half a day.
"The guards around Yu Fuluo have murderous aura. The Southern Xiongnu tribe has been controlled by the new Xiongnu Khan. Even Yu Fuluo is under the surveillance of the other party. There is no need to monitor it. It is necessary to send troops to sweep the grassland again and completely resolve the threat from the grassland."
Ma Yuan considered the reactive Xiongnu tribes to suppress the tribes by force without force, and the problem of the tribes not being able to be solved without force.
"The Southern Xiongnu tribes are not large in population, how dare they betray us?"
"I guess Yu Fuluo met someone who could not refuse..."
Ma Yuan rode a war horse and returned to Yanmen County from the Ordos Plateau.
The thing that the Southern Xiongnu could not control was that they were desolate places and lacked teleportation arrays. The Xia Palace wanted to pass the orders, but even if they were whipping up, it would be too late.
"Deploy troops immediately and regain control of the Southern Xiongnu tribe!"
Ma Yuan asked Yang Ye, who was stationed in Yanmen, to obtain a cavalry to suppress the Southern Xiongnu tribe.
"I'll go with you."
When Yang Ye heard that the Southern Xiongnu King Ting dared to betray the Xia Palace, he immediately responded to Ma Yuan's request and led the Invincible Legion to suppress the Southern Xiongnu tribe.
Based on Ma Yuan's keen insight, he speculated that Yu Fuluo, the two leaders of the Southern Huns, had been controlled by others and could not help themselves, and the other party was a person who could not refuse Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan.
The Invincible Legion was urgently mobilized, and this legion was stationed in Yanmen County for a long time, with the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry as the vanguard!
After Ma Yuan left, a great figure from the Xiongnu tribe came to the Southern Xiongnu royal court. Even when Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan saw the visitor, they were all in awe and did not even dare to take a breath.
When the Huns were strong, they migrated to the West from the sea to Central Asia, and their descendants migrated to the West, with their influence somewhat similar to those of Mongolia and Turks. Among them, the Hun civilization also gave birth to many legendary heroes.
The Xiongnu Yizhixie Shanyu even fought against the Han Empire, but was defeated.
Later, the declined Huns were divided into two parts, one was the Northern Huns, who continued to oppose the Han Empire, and the other was the Southern Huns, who were dependent on the Han Empire.
The Han Empire at that time was somewhat similar to the Roman Empire, and many barbarians were used as soldiers. Later, the barbarians broke out in rebellions many times.
Western Rome was destroyed by barbarians, and in the east, the Western Jin Dynasty was destroyed due to the Eight Kings Rebellion and the Five Barbarians Invasion of Flowers. The Roman Empire left behind the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and there were still the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It has to be said that the situations in the East and West at that time were very coincidental, and the time period was almost coincidental.
Compared with the Northern Xiongnu, the Southern Xiongnu were less barbaric. Some of the Southern Xiongnu nobles were influenced by the culture of the Han Empire for a long time. They regarded themselves as Han ministers. Liu Yuan, a Hun who destroyed the Western Jin Dynasty, even called himself the King of Han, which was traced back to Emperor Gaozu of Han.
In the eyes of the Northern Huns, the Southern Huns were not only traitors of the Huns, but also lacked wildness and relaxed martial virtues.
In front of him, Yu Fuluo and Huchuquan were despised by the great Huns.
In the eyes of the great masters of the Huns, Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan, two generals who did not know whether they were platinum or diamond, could not even reach the king level, which really hurt the previous reputation of the Huns.
Moreover, Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan were having a miserable relationship. The princes who participated in the competition at the end of the Han Dynasty were beaten by various princes. The Southern Xiongnu had no sense of existence at all and the population could not grow.
Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan seemed to be submissive in front of this person, without ability, and could not be tough in front of the powerful Huns.
"That man named Ma Yuan left after staying in your tribe for less than half a day. He must have noticed that your Shanyu guard has been replaced by me."
After listening to Yu Fulu's description, the arrival of the Huns speculated that Ma Yuan had already noticed something wrong with the Southern Huns.
Yufuluo's Shanyu Guard (special arms, Southern Xiongnu Shanyu Guard, fifth-level light cavalry) is quite weaker than Yizhixie Shanyu's Shanyu Guard (special arms, seventh-level light cavalry).
The Shanyu Guard, the great Huns in front of us, is at the same level as the Shanyu Guard of Attila's Hun Empire, representing the highest military troops of the Hun civilization and the Hun civilization respectively.
In the eyes of the truly powerful Xiongnu Khan, Yuvluo's Shanyu guards were just more elite Xiongnu cavalry.
Ordinary people cannot detect the differences between the Xiongnu Shanyu guards, but General Fubo and Ma Yuan can see that.
Yufuluo was not his guard, but the guards of other Hun masters.
"Mr. Shanyu, the Han Empire is different from the past. There are many generals who compete with Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. The cavalry of King Xia of the Han Empire is even more terrible. We cannot fight against it, otherwise it will bring a catastrophe to our tribe..."
Yufuluo wanted to persuade the new Shanyu and gave up attacking the grassland.
Hu Chuquan also said: "Even Temujin and the others have failed, our Hun tribe cannot be an opponent of the Han Empire. Please think twice..."
Whether Yu Fuluo or Huchuquan, they once participated in the Battle of Hebei and Hetao with the Lord of Bingzhou, and had witnessed the great war between the princes of the Han Empire, and had no confidence in the restored glory of the Hun tribes.
Times have changed. Now the Han Empire is full of king-level and imperial-level military generals, and there are dozens of elite legions.
"We just want to return to the grasslands that belonged to our Huns, which has nothing to do with their Central Plains. Soon, maybe the Bingzhou legion will arrive and the Southern Hun tribes will migrate as soon as possible."
The great figures of the Huns still insisted on their own views and believed that the grasslands belonging to the Hun civilization should be recaptured. After all, the Hun civilization was the first grassland overlord.
"well……"
After Yu Fuluo and Huchuquan were controlled, they were helpless in the face of the determination of the great Huns.
The Invincible Legion came to the Ordos Plateau. The original Southern Xiongnu tribes had migrated, and some Southern Xiongnu populations that had not had time to leave were captured by Ma Yuan and others.
"Ma Yuan, as you said, the Southern Xiongnu betrayed our King of Xia. If they captured Yu Fuluo and Huchuquan alive, they must be killed."
Yang Ye counted the captive population of the Southern Xiongnu, which was only more than a thousand, and the remaining Xiongnu tribe population had entered the vast desert grassland.
"Yufuluo, Huchuquan has no ability. The one who really has the means should be the new Xiongnu Khan. He summoned the remaining Xiongnu tribes in Mobei and moved the Southern Xiongnu tribes. He probably wanted to reunify the Xiongnu tribes, conquer the Xianbei tribes, and become the new grassland overlord."
Ma Yuan quickly guessed the intention of the Huns.
Although the power of the Huns was not as stressed as the Mongol Empire and the four Khanate countries, it was still quite troublesome to conquer the tribes on the grasslands.
The Xiongnu Chanyu might be conducive to conquering the characteristics of the grassland tribes, so the conquest of tribes is faster. Some tribes that were originally attached to the Han Empire may rebel.
"Whatever their purpose is, just beat it. Let's go and chase."
Yang Ye thought about it and planned to use the captured Huns as a guide to pursue the main force of the Southern Huns.
"You can explore it, but be careful, divided into two cavalry to support each other."
Ma Yuan also wanted to know the whereabouts of the Southern Xiongnu as soon as possible. If he could regain control of the Southern Xiongnu tribe, it would be better.
The Bingzhou wolf cavalry chased the Southern Xiongnu to the north.
The Xia Palace, Xue Yue, who is in charge of intelligence, recently changed the focus of the investigation into various princes to prepare for the civil war.
However, changing the focus of the investigation into various princes will inevitably neglect the grassland.
Because the Hun tribes began to become active, Xueyue also aggravated the investigation of the grassland.
The scout did not disappoint her expectations and obtained a lot of information from the Hun tribe.
She took the initiative to visit Xia Prince's Mansion and informed Xia Tianliang of the Xiongnu tribe at the same time, some of which were quite amazing.
In the Xia Prince's Mansion, Xia Tianliang is teaching his son to read.
Chu Wu has learned to speak and know some simple words, and Ma Yunlu is also following Xia Tianliang.
As for Chu Xuan, the eldest daughter of Prince Xia’s Mansion, because she is young, Emperor Roufu is responsible for taking care of her.
"Who is the Hun Khan, who is he?"
Xia Yan heard that Xueyue brought about the Xiongnu Chanyu, who had recently led to the re-entry crisis of the prairie, put down his brush.
The grassland is too big, with countless tribes and extremely scattered. When the Chutian forces concentrate on preparing for the war of unification, they will inevitably neglect the grassland.
Unifying the Han Empire is the top priority of the Chutian forces at present, and the grassland is still second.
However, during the national war of "the rise of barbarians", troubles emerged one after another, and the main contradiction became to deal with barbarian tribes.
Xueyue solemnly said: "It is Maodun Shanyu who is unifying the grassland and trying to replace Temujin and re-establishing order in the grassland."
"Maodun Shanyu?"
Xia Tianliang's body shook. As a player, she knew who Maodun Shanyu was.
Maodun Shanyu should be the most talented and strategic military commander of the Hun civilization. He unified the northern grasslands for the first time, established a huge and powerful Hun Empire, defeated the Donghu and Yuezhi, and occupied the Western Regions.
Under the leadership of Maodun Shanyu, the territory of the Huns started from Yinshan in the south, to Lake Baikal in the north, to Liaohe in the east, and to Pamir in the west, rectified all nomadic tribes, and had more than 300,000 string control men, giving the Huns the capital to compete with the Central Plains dynasty.
Maodun Shanyu had a war with the Han Empire. His most famous deed should be the siege of Baideng, which surrounded Emperor Gaozu of Han in Baideng Mountain for seven days and seven nights.
During the reign of Emperor Gaozu of Han, the Huns were in a period of rising national strength, so the Han Empire was unable to defeat Maodun Shanyu at that time.
If such a hero is active in the grassland, it will not be a good thing for the Chutian forces in Bingzhou and Youzhou.
"After the beginning of spring, we will destroy Maodun Shanyu with the power of thunder and trembling."
