Chapter 1106: The Huns' Civil War (2)(1/2)
Zhao Xincheng, the pearl of the Huns by Yuwu River!
The city is three meters high and the wall is seven feet wide, so it can stand three rows of warriors to defend.
There are many workshops in the city, with a large number of craftsmen gathering. It is the most important weapon production and manufacturing base and ore smelting center for the Huns.
Since Yin Zhixie's era, thousands of craftsmen of all kinds have gathered here all year round.
Moreover, they are basically the best and best talents within the control of the Huns.
At the beginning, Yin Zhixie and Zhao Xin worked hard to build Zhao Xincheng into the young mansion of the Xiongnu.
After more than 30 years of hard work and accumulation, Zhao Xincheng's smelting, casting technology and production scale have been continuously expanded.
Nowadays, tens of thousands of bronze weapons of various colors can be produced here annually. We have initially mastered the wrought iron technology and can process the meteorite on the grassland into excellent swords and swords. Unfortunately, the output is too small, which can only meet the needs of the Hun nobles.
In addition, the craftsmen in Zhao Xincheng were also responsible for restoring and maintaining the iron weapons seized and looted from the Han Dynasty.
Although, the technology of these people is about the level of Hindustan aviation.
But this is the only place where the Huns can repair and maintain high-end technical weapons that were seized from the Han army.
For example, big yellow crossbow, continuous crossbow, crossbow chariot, horse-killing sabre, etc.
Not to mention Zhao Xincheng, the Yitianyan Mountain (now the southern foot of Hangai Mountain), is located high and the fertile Yuwu River Valley is controlled, and the main road to head westward to Longcheng and Langjuxu Mountain.
Therefore, Zhao Xincheng's status in the Huns is no less than that in Longcheng and Holy Mountain. In fact, it is the economic capital of the Huns.
By late February, the river in Yuwushui suddenly began to rise sharply half a month earlier, but in just one night it flooded into disasters.
The surging river water soon flooded the mountain gorge south of Zhao Xincheng, and rushed towards the low-lying land at the foot of Zhao Xincheng with huge waves.
The surge in the river made it impossible for any enemy coming from Guyan Mountain to threaten Zhao Xincheng again.
"This is really a blessing from God!" Staring at the surging river, Tu Qi finally showed a smile on his face: "The God and the Sun and the Moon are favoring me!"
"Support the plow and the plow alone! Support the plow alone!" His subordinates shouted.
In their opinion, this is indeed the will of heaven, the blessing of the gods, and the ancestral spirits show their holy!
Otherwise, why did the Yuwushui water level soar so long this year than in previous years?
The early surge in Yuwushui River greatly reduced the pressure on Tuqiqi.
Since he claimed to be the Shanyu, all parties have immediately taken action against him.
A large number of troops gathered, and they were stunning to strangle him to death.
Now, the Yuwu River has soared, causing hostile forces in the upper Yanran Mountain and Guyan Mountain areas to come.
Now he only needs to use the period when the river water surges to eliminate enemies in the downstream of Yuwu Water, the Hungarian River Basin and the private canals and seas.
Then, he could truly subdue the tribes and become the real Huns Chanyu.
Instead of just like now, they can only control the empty shelf Shanyu in Zhaoxincheng and its surrounding hundreds of miles.
The commands issued leave the control area and basically have no effect.
Thinking of this, Tuqi ordered: "Send someone to tell the Subu Dangmi of the Subu clan that if the Subu clan cannot surrender to me within three days, then my great son of the god, the sacred lee, the sacred tutu, favored by the sun and the moon, will destroy the Subu clan and capture all their pastures, livestock, and slaves!"
"Your will!" The nobles immediately took the order and left.
Among the four major clans of the Huns, the Xubu clan has the weakest military strength and strength.
During last year's war, two thousand cavalry of the Subu clan were severely injured by the demon god from the Han Dynasty.
On the other hand, Tu Qi has recaptured Zhao Xincheng with the will of Hu Lu Gu since breaking through Longcheng.
Then he summoned his own tribal cavalry and received the service of some of the royal cavalry of Hulugu.
At this time, there were already 20,000 elite cavalry, and three ten thousand cavalry were divided into three ten thousand cavalry.
In terms of combat forces, he already has an absolute advantage over the Subu clan.
After a sudden attack, Tu Qi believed that the Subu clan would make a wise choice.
If the Subu clan surrenders, his power will increase greatly, and he can further force the Lan family, Huyan family, and the Shuang family to stand on the side.
Then, you can march into the Hungarian River and attack those who oppose him.
Ideally, it only takes two or three months to complete the unification of the entire Yuwushui and the Hungarian River Basin.
Then you can turn around and fight the forces of Tushe Shaman, Mother Yan, and the Right Virtuous King Sheli.
In the end, he used this power to force the wise men of the Western Regions to bow their heads.
The Hun Empire could then be reunified in his hands!
However, Tu Qi still had some knots in his heart, and was wary and wary.
Now, the Xiongnu tribes in northern Mobei have been divided into five camps and are in opposition and united.
He is one. The Tushe Shaman in Longcheng, Guyan Mountain, and the mother Yan clan are one. The right wise king Sheli, who was captured by the demon god of the Han Dynasty, can barely be considered one. In addition, the four major clans combined can also be considered one. Finally, the Yidingling, Jiankun, Right Clan, and some of the royal cavalry controlled by Ding Ling and Wang Weilu, were considered one.
And that King Ding Ling declared neutrality at the beginning of the chaos last year.
He sent representatives to all parties and declared that ‘we will always be loyal to the Shanyu’.
As for who is the Shanyu?
Of course, it is all parties that negotiate (fight) to make a decision.
They seem to do the same for a long time.
These guys led their troops into the valley between Yanran Mountain, Tianyan Mountain and Guyan Mountain, and did not interfere or participate in disputes between all parties.
He also treated the envoys sent by Tuqi with courtesy, neither being close nor being alienated.
In private, he looked even more worried about the country and the people, and was righteous, saying, "The First Shanyu, the Long Hou Shanyu, the Julihu Shanyu, etc., all took uniting the various ministries as their mission. We are deeply grateful to the First Shanyu, and we dare not disobey them and are unwilling to fight with each other's family."
The implication is naturally obvious that whoever is the winner will surrender to.
Because of this attitude, they attracted a large number of small and medium-sized tribes who were afraid of being affected by the war and gained support from many people within the Twin Clan and the four major clans.
Even around Tu Qi, some people think they did the right thing and think that this is the demeanor that the real Huns should have!
But Tu Qi has always had deep worries, always thinking that Wei Lu is hiding where he is planning something?
However, due to the lack of evidence, he was afraid of Wei Lu's strength and did not dare to break up easily.
Taking a deep breath, Tu Qi prayed in his heart: "I hope that King Ding Ling is the loyal minister of my Huns, just like what he said!"
If so, after he defeated, the vital energy of the Huns could be retained to the greatest extent that the troops controlled by King Ding Ling now would be comparable to him.
It controls Jiankun, Dingling, the three thousand cavalry of the Right School and about 8,000 to 10,000 elite royal courts. In addition, there are hundreds of tribes of all sizes and small. The total population is almost 140,000, and there are a huge number of livestock.
If he has a strange intention, he will not be able to imagine the consequences!
It is precisely because of their existence that Tu Qi and his opponents can maintain false peace in the past winter.
Fortunately, the current surge in the river water also cut off the passage of Wei Lu's westward advance.
Let Tuqi let go of his hands and concentrate on dealing with dissidents who threatened his rule in the Yuwushui Valley.
…………………………………………
Tu Qi's troops moved, and the entire Yuwu River Basin was instantly boiling.
"Is it worthy of killing the Shanyu people to surrender?" Xubu Dangmi, the leader of the Subu clan, had already received the promises of the Huyan clan, Lan clan and several Twin clan clans. Faced with the threat of the Tsaud, he naturally raised his neck: "Cut off his ears and nose, drive him out, and let him go back and tell Tuqi that the Son of the Tsaud will never surrender. If he wants to fight, then fight!"
As a result, the Huns civil war broke out.
When he heard that the envoy had encountered it, Tu Qi was furious and immediately led his cavalry out of Zhao Xincheng and rushed towards the pasture of the Subu clan with great momentum.
The cavalry on both sides immediately fought in the open area of the Yuwushui River Valley.
The cavalry of the Lan family and Huyan family also came immediately.
However, after the two sides fought, Xubu Dangmi and others immediately discovered something extremely unfavorable to them. Tu Qi wore the crown of the Xiongnu Shanyu and raised the dragon flag representing the Shanyu.
Their other cavalry and even the main cavalry began to shake and be scared.
Some small tribes even began to turn against each other.
There is no way, the Twin Clan's Shanyu accumulated power in the Huns for a hundred years and was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
All major clans and tribes have become accustomed to surrendering to the Shuang clan.
When you see the dragon flag, you will recall the years when you kneel in front of the royal court and bow down to your subordinates, becoming slaves and maids.
Where can I dare to fight?
And the avalanche-like chain reaction is like the domiro.
When a person who is shaken, afraid, and afraid appears, this emotion spreads throughout the army in an instant.
This made Subu Dangmi and others know that they must also have their own Chanyu to fight against Tuqi.
Because the Huns must have a master!
And he was a irritable man who always used a whip, whip them, and ravaged their master!
Obedience to the master is written into the DNA deep in the bone marrow of those slaves and herdsmen.
Just like they worship the sun, moon, mountains and rivers, and sacrifice to the gods and all things.
