Half a month later, the snow had covered the mountains, rivers, and lakes in the west of the river had been frozen.

The herders began to drive their livestock to transition from the Hexi Corridor to the warmer Heshuo area, and seek shelter at the foot of Yinshan Mountain.

This is the most important migration time for Hexi herdsmen in the year!

Millions of livestock were driven by countless people and headed south along the frozen river.

They would spend a month spanning more than a thousand miles of roads, finally reach Yinshan, and spend the entire cold winter and early spring there, returning in the second year late spring.

Those who participated in this great migration were basically herders from Huiqu, Xiutu and other tribes.

The post roads and post stations built and built by the Han family in Hexi provided great help for their migration.

It will save them from being lost and from being in danger in the wild.

Therefore, these tribes are all hard-core pro-Han factions.

The main force of the vassal commander of the Great Honglu was composed of the tribes with Neihexi.

As these herders left, Hexi suddenly seemed a little empty.

In the mountains and rivers, there are no more herders and their livestock.

Only immigrants and Qiang who settled here were left.

Zhang Yue took the Eagle Raider and rode his horse on the post road. His prosperous military appearance made the people along the way look at each other.

When approaching Guzang City near Xiutuze, it caused a sensation!

There is no way, the Yingyang Brigade is the coolest cavalry in contemporary times!

It is almost impossible to have this cavalry, a better cavalry in appearance and appearance.

The entire army has 1,500 cavalry, all of which are the elites selected from the best!

He is not less than seven feet tall and weighs no less than three hundred kilograms. Everyone is equipped with leather armor suitable for cavalry.

This leather armor is made of whale skin caught by the Haiguan Office, and is light and tough.

The sabers equipped are even more shiny and sharp.

Such an army dispersed in combat state and walked on the post road, with male hormones exploding, and naturally it could immediately attract everyone's attention!

After all, this is an era where people praise real men and aesthetic mainstream emphasize masculinity and courage.

When Yingyang Brigade approached Guzang City, Li Guangli led his personal soldiers to greet him.

"Is General Yingyang Zhang Gonghuiyi?" Li Guangli asked loudly from afar.

"That's right!" Zhang Yue replied loudly, "Dare you ask, "Who is the Lord?"

"Li Guangli, a despised wilderness, has seen General Yingyang!" Li Guangli replied loudly.

The two of them sang together, which eliminated the suspicion of the "national generals' private meeting" on the surface.

When it was spread to Chang'an, no one could bring this matter to the table.

After all, it is reasonable that General Li Guangli, the second-class general, led his army back to the army and passed through Guzang City where Xu Tu Ze.

Although the emperor ordered him to take charge of Hehuang affairs, the eagle and General Zhang Zizhong, at the same time, the edict clearly stipulated that he had the authority to "control the Bingzhou counties."

In this case, it is normal for General Ying Yang to lead his army to patrol Hexi to fulfill his obligations.

Furthermore, it is a convention and tradition that the Han generals perform troops in winter, and the war fires are storming the soldiers and tempering the soldiers.

This is a normal edge ball.

However, such a side ball can only hit this point.

Both Zhang Yue and Li Guangli understand that they must always be exposed to the public's sight and must not have any private secret meetings.

You can't stay here for too long.

Otherwise, it would be not a side ball, but a 'pinning general'.

This is not a minor crime!

If you are exaggerating it, you can directly deduct the label of "anti-Han-Liu Conspiracy Group".

This is not a good thing!

Especially for Li Guangli!

So, Li Guangli did not approach him rashly, but looked at Zhang Yue from afar and said according to the script: "What's the matter with the general?"

"Passing Hexi, supervising illegally, punishing powerful people!" Zhang Yue raised his head and said righteously.

"Oh..." Li Guangli suddenly realized and bowed: "General Gao Yi, I really admire him!"

So he said, "I have long heard of the illegal affairs of the powerful and powerful in Hexi and the corrupt officials. If the general needs it, I am willing to provide some clues..."

"I'm here to wait for Haixi!" Zhang Yue immediately bowed and returned the gift.

So, Li Guangli waved his hand, and someone immediately stepped forward and submitted a letter that had been sealed in a bamboo tube to Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue received it in his hand and did not rush to open it, and in fact he didn't need to open it either.

Because there is definitely no word about this bamboo tube and it is about the previous discussion.

Li Guangli’s sending this thing is a metaphor for you. I basically agree with it.

Zhang Yue would not greedily raise the price. He picked up the bamboo tube, bowed to Li Guangli again, then turned his horse's head and said to the left and right: "Go! Go to Dunhuang!"

Since Li Guangli had let go, Zhang Yue naturally wanted to immediately swear sovereignty over the entire Hexi.

Just like a lion on the African grassland, heading to the border, leaving its own scent mark, telling the four counties of Hexi to change their fathers, the Western Regions and the Huns, and they are not convinced!

And, there is no place that is more suitable for doing such things than Dunhuang!

………………………………

In this severe winter, the royal court of Mobei quietly returned to the traditional wintering place after the Huns fled north. It was located in the mountain gorge on the northern foot of Yanran Mountain.

Here, among the Huns, it is called "Jicuhes", which means "warm valley".

In fact, the same is true.

The tall and steep Yanran Mountain intercepts the cold wind and ice and snow.

The dense forests on all sides of the mountain gorges cover the enemy outside.

The resources of wild beasts and birds in the mountain mausoleum can also provide the Huns with a lot of protein.

This makes this place the best shelter for the Hun royal court, especially the noble women and babies in winter.

Just like in the past, the Huns would migrate their royal court to the foot of Yinshan Mountain in Heshuo in winter.

However, Qiquhes is not peaceful now.

The disease of Shanyu Hulugu becomes more and more serious in the winter.

Now, he has not even made any accounts for several days.

The royal cavalry loyal to Hu Lu Gu protected his royal tent strictly.

Except for a few of Hu Lu Gu's confidants, no one knows the specific condition of his body.

This caused storms inside and outside the royal court.

The four major clans, the mother Yan clan - Tushe Shaman and the Hulugu clan, began to fight against each other around the royal court.

However, there is still some restraint now and it has not finally broken up!

But everyone knows that once the fox and deer are breathing off.

The contradictions and conflicts inside and outside the Shanyu court will be immediately detonated!

By then, it will probably be an unprecedented internal strife!

The four major clans, the Twin Clan, the emerging mother Yan clan and the Tushe Shaman, will start a desperate battle!

I'm afraid there is only one winner who can survive and have everything.

no way!

In the past few months, the contradictions between the inside and outside the Shanyu court have been infinitely magnified by various factors.

In particular, Hu Lugu took the initiative to get closer to Tushe Shaman and his mother, in order to protect himself.

This made the latter legitimately spread among the Hun tribes and promote their own beliefs and doctrines.

With the cooperation of various shamans, the latter's influence quickly swept across the desert like wildfire.

The four major clans and the Twin Clan nobles were very dissatisfied with this. On the one hand, they sent people to contact the wise men, and on the other hand, they actively organized their troops to expel and attack the forces of Tushe Shamans, support the new shamans, and expel those old priests who were disobedient and unsatisfied.

Even in the name of a false god, many herders and even shamans who believed in Tushe Shamans were executed!

The Tushe Shaman side was extremely dissatisfied with this.

The lower-class herders, brainwashed and conquered by the miracles of faith and Tushe Shaman, began to resist their masters for the first time in history.

There are endless incidents of forceful confrontation and even violent struggles.

The Tushe Shaman made public statements many times, proclaiming that "those who believe in God and are loyal to the gods' religion will enter the kingdom of God after death and be with the sun and the moon...''Die for God will be favored by God's life'' God loves the world, just like the heaven and earth love living beings'. Such remarks stimulated the ignorant slaves and herders at the bottom, as if they were injected with chicken blood, and constantly raised the banner of Tushe Shaman and the gods, violently impacted and shaken the four major clans. The rule basis of the Twin clans in tribes is to take power from the secular nobles to the shamans representing the divine power.
