Chapter 722
In Mobei Dragon City, the Chutian forces are hastily preparing for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky, and Chutian is preparing to concurrently serve as the Grand Chanyu.
Attacking the northern grasslands may be difficult, but it is not the most difficult thing.
The real difficulty is how to control the savannah effectively and at low cost.
Combined, the area of Monan and Mobei is only slightly smaller than the land in the pass, but the population density is not at the same level at all, and it is difficult to effectively develop it.
Therefore, in the past dynasties, many northern expeditions have been fought in Mobei, but it is difficult to control. With the end of the Northern Expedition, a new overlord will be born in the grassland.
In the end, nomadic tribes lived on the steppes.
Chutian wants to establish a new ruling system here, and throughout his life, this place will be firmly incorporated into the territory of the Han Empire.
It is very important for the various nomadic tribes on the prairie to recognize their rule over the prairie.
"The princes of the Han Empire want to ascend the throne, the Great Chanyu. This is really...unbelievable."
The person who manages Mobei Dragon City is Prince Yan. He heard that Chu Tian was going to hold a ceremony to worship heaven in Dragon City and become the Great Chanyu, so he couldn't react for a while.
The Great Chanyu is equivalent to the emperor of each tribe on the prairie.
"According to the order, go down and prepare."
As a player, Crown Prince Yan also pursues pragmatism.
If becoming the Great Chanyu can strengthen his rule over the northern grasslands, then it is all right for Chutian to be the Great Chanyu as one of his identities.
In Monan, Li Mu, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, was besieging Ji Porridge, the Zuoxian King of the Huns. Mao Dun arranged Ji Porridge in Monan as a retreat, but Ji Porridge was besieged by Li Mu.
The two fought near Yinshan Mountain, Ji Porridge was defeated, and the Xiongnu cavalry was besieged and tried to break out.
Zhao Kuo led a team of cavalry, blocked a gap, and blocked the Huns cavalry.
The Xiongnu cavalry attacked Zhao's border cavalry, and Zhao Kuo blocked the Hun cavalry who came all over the mountains!
"Can't let them go!"
Zhao Kuo drew his sword and personally led the troops to block the enemy cavalry.
Zhao Bianqi stretched his bow and drew the string, and shot tens of thousands of arrows at the Xiongnu cavalry, harvesting the enemy cavalry!
The Huns counterattacked fiercely. The bows and arrows passed over Zhao Kuo's head. The Huns cavalry drew their ring swords and fought hand-to-hand with Zhao's side cavalry!
"Our cavalry is about to break!"
A general riding on the border of Zhao State, with a somewhat flustered expression, asked Zhao Kuo for instructions.
"No matter what, we must stop Ji Piao's cavalry. He is the son of Modun. If he is allowed to escape, there may be endless troubles in the future! Follow me!"
"General, the cavalry of the Huns has gone crazy. You may be in danger if you step forward to fight!"
"The situation is critical, no one can retreat, and I am no exception!"
Zhao Kuo still personally commanded the reserve team and joined the battle against the Huns cavalry.
Ji Porridge's cavalry has gone crazy, they know the consequences of being besieged here, rows of Xiongnu cavalry launched an attack, and charged Zhao Kuo's cavalry.
The Xiongnu cavalry and Zhao Bianqi scuffled, and the sound of clashing weapons was everywhere.
"Kill the enemy general!"
Ji Porridge seemed to realize that Mao Dun died in battle. Facing Zhao Kuo's interception, he thought that the best way should be to kill Zhao Kuo and force the cavalry on the opposite side to disperse.
The Xiongnu's eagle archers shot and killed the cavalry around Zhao Kuo. Ji Porridge drew out his saber and charged at Zhao Kuo!
"Protect the general!"
Zhao Kuo's guards blocked Ji Porridge desperately.
Ji porridge has been killed in front of Zhao Kuo!
When Zhao Kuo fell into a panic, the cavalry led by Li Mu defeated the Huns cavalry in the rear!
Li Mu's cavalry, divided into two groups, surrounded the cavalry of Ji Porridge and Zhao Kuo!
Like his father, Ji Porridge is under siege and besieged on all sides!
Facing Li Mu, his struggle seemed to be of no avail. The Hun cavalry fell to the ground one by one, and Ji Porridge fought bloody, but it seemed to be of no avail.
Li Mu has a large number of cavalry, and he regards Ji Porridge as prey.
As more and more cavalry died in battle, Ji Porridge only had a few hundred cavalry around him.
Teams of Zhao Bian cavalry attacked Ji Porridge, the two armies melee, Ji Porridge slashed vigorously, but was still killed by Li Mu's cavalry!
The Zuoxian King of the Huns was crushed by Zhao Bian's horseshoe!
The Xiongnu's tribe in Monan was also suppressed!
Li Mu put his sword back into its scabbard, and looked at the messy battlefield. There were at least tens of thousands of Hun cavalry who died under the sword of his army.
Zhao Kuo turned pale, and thanked Li Mu: "If it wasn't for General Li, I'm afraid I would die under the saber of the Huns cavalry today."
Li Mu looked at this general who was gradually losing his immaturity.
Zhao Kuo is no longer the one who talks about war on paper. Under Li Mu's teaching, he has participated in many actual battles.
This time, Zhao Kuo also contributed to the suppression of the Xiongnu tribe in Monan.
"Although it's a bit reckless to fight in person, I hope you can remember that the battlefield is changing rapidly, and if you act in accordance with the art of war, you will only stick to the form. If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will succeed."
Li Mu is still optimistic about Zhao Kuo.
Zhao Kuo wiped the blood from his face: "The Huns in the southern part of the country were destroyed, and the Huns in the northern part of the country should have been suppressed by King Xia."
"Nine times out of ten, after this battle, there will be no more Huns."
Li Mu can deal with Ji Porridge on his own, and he believes that with so many elites brought by Chutian, they can completely suppress the main force of the Xiongnu in Mobei.
"The Huns are gone."
In the distant Huns Empire, Attila, the leader of the Huns, seems to have sensed that the Xiongnu civilization that may be related to it has completely declined, and even his own nobles need to be appointed by the Xia Palace to be legal.
Although resplendent and magnificent, Bleda's voice echoed in the slightly empty and fortified hall: "Your Majesty, Alexander, Hohenzollern and others are marching towards our empire."
Attila pondered for a while, and then said: "Let Temujin go to meet the enemy, and consume the Mongolian cavalry by the way."
"Temujin, there may be a rebellion."
"Except for his ability, we cannot resist the Western coalition forces."
The situation Attila, the whip of God, is facing is quite dangerous, especially after Jeska, who is good at defense, and the property looted from the Kingdom of Hungary were plundered by Chutian, the possibility of Attila's comeback has dropped significantly.
"Also, Sultan Hyrem of the Ottoman Empire had to return to his army to suppress the rebellion because of an alien rebellion in the country, and chose to withdraw from the Kingdom of Macedonia. Alexander can dispatch more troops eastward. Ekaterina of St. Petersburg is at the border Hoarding thirty soldiers and horses..."
"They just want to carve up my territory and plunder my population and gold and silver, but even if I die in battle, I will make them feel bad."
Attila's eyes gradually turned fierce.
Alexander's Macedonian army, Hohenzollern's Teutonic Knights, and Ekaterina's Tsarist Russian army all stared at the Hunnic Empire.
Almost at the same time, the Xiongnu civilization in the east and the Xiongnu civilization in the west shrank their forces in the world of "Lord", and it may not take long before there will be no more Xiongnu.
