Chapter 345 Three Dog Ropes(2/3)
In the early days of its establishment, the Han Dynasty was humiliated and plundered by the Xiongnu for more than seventy years. After three generations of emperors, it was able to avenge its previous humiliation during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, Qin can unify the world, but the grassland cannot follow!
However, the Qin State is now busy destroying the six countries and unifying the world, so it is impossible to send troops to intervene in the grassland situation.
Then supporting a grassland force to check and balance the grassland and disrupt the grassland is the best choice.
Although Touman was not as outstanding as his son Moton, he was able to establish a national power on the grassland in history.
It is not a big problem to withstand the pressure of Donghu and Yuezhi. If it is really unbearable, Qin can also provide appropriate support.
If the wolf clan rises too quickly, they will reduce their support, pull the wolf clan away, or secretly support the Yuezhi and Donghu.
Touman should be allowed to live longer to prevent him from being killed by his son Moton.
As long as Touman does not die, Maodun will not be able to ascend to the throne.
Or simply kill Mao Dun by any means necessary.
Anyway, we cannot let this Xiongnu hero who destroyed Donghu, crippled the Yueshi, conquered Loufan and other countries, captured the Hetao area, dominated the grasslands, and established the Xiongnu Empire to come to power.
All in all, all operations are to maintain the balance of grassland forces.
Wait until Qin unified the world and rest for a while before intervening in the grassland situation.
Although the situation of three pillars is good, how can it be compared to being divided into four?
Although the threat from Baiyue is not small, it is the grasslands that can cause serious trouble to the Central Plains.
After killing the threat of the grassland, there is plenty of time to slowly adjust and develop the Baiyue Land.
It seems that it is necessary to support Touman's rise to power, and the old wolf king will not listen to him at all.
Touman relied on him, and where he relied on Qin, he did not dare to turn against him before he was still young.
But a wolf cub is different from a dog cub, let alone a cunning, vicious, wild and ferocious old wolf in its prime.
Therefore, there is no shortage of dog leashes!
Although it can't completely avoid backlash, it can at least make it more difficult to backfire, and it can be replaced with less effort after the backlash!
"Grind ink for me."
After saying this, Cheng Yu stood up and walked towards the table.
"Here."
Zhong Qian quickly ran to the table, picked up the ink stick, and started to use the water.
When Cheng Xiu took out the paper and the brush, he was almost finished. After he finished it, he stood away in a very polite manner.
Cheng Xi dipped his pen in ink, pondered for a while, and started writing.
He prepared three dog ropes to tie around Touman's neck, two of which could not fall on the paper.
The dog rope that fell on the paper was to send the two women of the old Wolf King to Qin according to the original agreement.
In the past, the old wolf king was not dead yet, and he was in the grassland, so it was difficult to take action. Now what excuse does Touman have to delay?
Not surprisingly, the old wolf king will definitely take his two daughters with him.
First of all, as a nomadic people, the wolf clan went south in full force, and it was impossible to leave the old, weak, women and children where they were.
Wouldn't staying on the grassland give Donghu, Yuezhi, and even other tribes a chance?
And as you move closer to the south, the climate is not that cold, and fewer livestock and people die.
It is also easier to replenish supplies.
In addition, going south to plunder was a big gamble.
If it succeeds, everything is easy to say; if it fails, it is not certain whether the position of Wolf King can still be secured.
The old wolf king who cannot lead the wolf pack to hunt successfully is destined to be abandoned.
If the old wolf king is born, he will need to use the two sisters to win over the big tribe to support him.
With the beauty of the two women who are famous in the grasslands and the temptation of the next generation of wolf kings, it may be difficult for the leader of the big tribe to resist the temptation.
If the old wolf king dies, the two sisters will not only have legitimate status, but also hold the power of the old wolf king's old tribe.
Any one of them who marries the leader of a large tribe will not only gain the status of orthodoxy, but will also greatly increase their strength.
You have both good looks and good looks, as well as the temptation of stunning beauties. If you operate it well, you can protect yourself and the tribe.
In the future, there will be an opportunity to help the old wolf king's grandson regain the position of wolf king.
As for the possibility of one of the two sisters becoming the Wolf King, it is too small.
After all, this is a place where women are born as daughters and can be inherited by prairie women, where women are trophies.
Unless the two sisters are incredibly powerful, they will have some chance of crushing the leaders of the major tribes.
By controlling the two sisters in the Qin State, all the heads of the big tribes of the Wolf Clan, including Touman, lost their orthodox status.
The so-called name and implement cannot be faked by others, which shows the importance of title.
In short, with a legitimate title, there will be more supporters and fewer enemies.
On the contrary, there will be fewer supporters and more enemies, and the gap will be huge.
Without an orthodox title, even if the Touman tribe is one of the best in strength, it will be very difficult to become the new Wolf King.
The wolf clan has six major tribes. In addition to the strongest old wolf king's headquarters, there are also five major tribes.
Although the Touman tribe is fighting for one, it is not enough to crush the other four tribes, and it will definitely rely more on the support of Qin.
The greater the support, the deeper Qin's penetration into the Wolf Clan will be, and the stronger the control of Touman, his enemy.
If the control is strong to a certain extent, it is not impossible for Touman and Maodun to die suddenly...
When the two daughters of the Wolf King were sent to Xianyang, the elder sister would be given to Brother Wang, and the younger sister would be happily accepted by him.
When Touman is dishonest or Qin has enough power to attack the grassland, he can send troops to the grassland in the name of the king's brother and the heirs of the eldest daughter of the Wolf King.
The name is very simple, to fight against rebellion!
Simple yet effective.
This heir must have been deeply influenced by the Qin State. After the successful crusade, he would lead the transformation of the wolf clan in all aspects.
Over time, it became the hunting dog of the Qin State, which will surely better check and balance Donghu and Yuezhi, causing the grassland to fall into pieces and become a piece of loose sand.
When the time comes, it will not be impossible for Brother Wang to add the name of Heavenly Khan, Holy Khan, etc. to his name as the First Emperor.
Out of various considerations, Cheng Xi asked Tou Man to sacrifice the two sisters!
Otherwise, without further ado, the Qin army would still stare at Touman's tribe and beat them severely.
If the losses were heavy, would the predatory prairie wolves let Touman's tribe go?
On the grassland, isn't it true that the large tribes eat the middle tribes, the small tribes, the medium tribes eat the small tribes, and the small tribes eat the herdsmen?
Even if Touman escapes by chance, the possibility of becoming the new Wolf King will be basically lost due to the chain reaction.
His father is not the Wolf King. Even if Mao Dun inherits Tou Man's position, it will be extremely difficult to unify the grasslands and establish a huge nomadic empire!
This is still a situation where Mao Dun can survive internal and external attacks. If he dies, everything will stop.
By taking one step slowly and one step at a time, Qin will have more time to recover from the damage caused by the attack on the Six Kingdoms and have more time to intervene in the grassland situation.
The other two dog ropes that cannot fall on the paper, one of which is penetrated through Touman's reliance.
It would be best if Touman and his descendants could be killed suddenly at any time.
The last one is to carefully select some of the prisoners of war from the wolf tribe and give them different treatment, benefits, transformation and brainwashing.
In the end, they were trained into a prairie scimitar loyal to the Qin State, so that the young master of the Qin State with the blood of the old wolf king could be brought to the grassland in the future.
You can also include the prairie wolf who failed in the somersault battle with the Wolf King.
When the time comes, this wolf-skinned Qin Xin's army will be mixed with Qin's serious army.
With troops who are familiar with the customs, topography, and communication of the grasslands, it will be much easier for the Qin army to deal with Touman.
In the future, it will be easier to influence the wolves and domesticate them into hounds, which will indirectly influence other grassland tribes and deepen Qin's influence.
As long as the alien army is controlled properly and does not spread too much, it is a very useful knife.
Although there have been situations in history where foreign tribes counterattacked, such as the Wuhu rebellion in China, the Anshi Rebellion, etc., there were also cases where the foreign troops were more loyal than the Central Plains army.
Of course, considering the overall situation, the alien army should always be small in size, as the consequences of backlash would be too serious.
The people of the Central Plains have expanded from a small area in the Yellow River Basin to the present level. Is it difficult for them not to have abundant martial virtues?
It’s just that the Central Plains has always been a farming civilization and is very picky about land.
Land that cannot grow crops or has poor crop yields, unless it plays a major military role, is "barren land" and will cause more harm than good.
When the most fertile land is occupied, it is inevitable that we will stop making progress.
If crops could be grown in grasslands, jungles, mountains, seas, and the Gobi Desert, and the yields were acceptable, there would be no need to worry about other people!
This is the perspective of farming culture, but the perspective of industrial civilization is naturally different.
