Chapter two hundred and sixty fifth situation
Chapter 265: The World of Storms
The wind and clouds are surging, on this vast land.
Over the past hundred years, countless tribes have lived a life worse than cows and horses under the oppression of the Khitans.
All the pastures with abundant water and grass were taken away by the Khitans; areas with warm climates were where the Khitans lived. The cavalry of the Liao Kingdom roared on the ground, robbed the property and population of various tribes, killed men who dared to resist, captured women and children as slaves, and forced various tribes to pay tribute every year. The amount of tribute paid was astonishingly large. In order to collect the tribute, the greedy Khitan officials did not hesitate to force countless families to destroy them. Anyway, these people were not Khitans, one was counted as one less. Even if they all died, the Khitan officials would only feel happy and not have any mercy.
All tribes live in bitter and cold places, struggling on the brink of hunger and death. Most of the things obtained from grazing and hunting are tributed to the Khitans. The food left behind cannot even fill their children's stomachs. Seeing the skinny children crying loudly, and even losing weight in hunger, every parent is heartbroken and hates the cruel Khitans to the bone.
But today, all this hatred has a chance to be repaid!
The powerful Hualie tribe rose on the grasslands in the northwest direction and launched a fierce offensive, quickly seizing many cities of the Khitan Kingdom, and including the vast grasslands and wilderness within its control. The territory was so wide that it had surpassed the Great Liao.
Under the order of Khan Luo Dacheng, Hualie's tribe issued an edict to the world, calling on all tribes to rise up and resist the tyranny of the Liao Kingdom, until the Great Liao Kingdom was eliminated, and the brutal Khitan was overthrown, and no longer overwhelmed the people of all races and acted as a blessing.
With the efforts of countless business travelers and spies, rumors spread from all over the world and spread to various tribes on the edge of the Liao Kingdom.
In the rumors, the Hualie tribe was exaggerated to become the largest power, with millions of huge cavalry, and could easily defeat the Liao Kingdom. In such a short time, the Hualie tribe has seized thousands of miles of the Liao Kingdom's territory. At this speed, it will not take too long for the Liao Kingdom to exist!
The originally arrogant Liao Kingdom had been completely suppressed. After the civil strife of the third prince Begute, the Empress Dowager Xiao Nojin and his brother Xiao Xiaoxian were not even able to organize a new army to go to the northwest to attack Hualie's troops to revive the Liao Kingdom's prestige.
The only thing they could do was to order militias to organize in various places to strive to protect the territory and protect the people and resist the invasion of the Hualie tribe. However, under the fierce offensive of the Hualie tribe, small cities were captured one by one, and the defenders, militias, and Khitan people were either killed or became slaves, living a tragic life of losing their freedom.
Some small cities were deterred by the Hualie tribe, and the defenders had to make painful decisions to surrender to the Hualie tribe.
The surrendered army, cities and Hualie's troops gave great preferential treatment. First of all, they did not have to die, secondly, they did not have to be slaves, and their property would be retained. However, from then on, they would have to be organized into different 100 and 100 households and 100 households organizations, and were arranged strictly according to the military household system.
A large number of Khitan people were incorporated into the Hualie tribe, and they swear allegiance to the Hualie tribe and act according to the will of Changshengtian. From then on, they will become ordinary tribes of the Hualie tribe, and work hard together with other tribes to fight for the interests of the Hualie tribe.
Among them, Xiao Xianbu's family played a great role.
They were originally prominent Khitans and had a high reputation among the various Khitan tribes. However, because they were defeated in the power struggle, they had to travel far away to join the emerging Hualie tribe.
As Princess Xingping's uncle, Xiao Xianbu was also valued by Luo Dacheng and participated in the political affairs of the Hualie tribe with his sons and nephews. Many people were appointed as hundreds of households and deputy thousand households, and lived a prominent life again on the grassland. Luo Dacheng seemed very kind and generous to those who sincerely did things for him.
As the husband of Princess Xingping and the righteous brother who was publicly recognized by the third prince Begute, Luo Dacheng issued an order to various Khitan tribes that he must surrender to himself and issued a manifesto to fight against the tyrannical Empress Dowager Xiao Nojin, and the tyrannical uncle Xiao Xiaoxian, and claimed that any tribe that does not surrender to him would be punished the most severely!
Countless envoys who persuaded surrender were sent to various Khitan tribes. In those occupied areas, more and more Khitan tribes surrendered to the Hualie tribe in exchange for peace with the tribe. The Hualie tribe also treated the surrender equally, dispersed their tribes and incorporated them into their own tribes, and was careful not to allow the Khitans to have the advantage in any Thousand-House Organization, but in general life, they were still taken care of them so that these anxious new surrenderers could calm down.
According to the line between Princess Xingping and Xiao Xianbu, Luo Dacheng also had a formal status among the various Khitan tribes and gathered a large number of Khitan tribes as part of his subordinates. Since joining the Hualie tribe, these tribes have no longer been Khitans, but a branch of the Hualie tribe. Just like the powerful nomadic peoples in the past annexed other weak nomadic peoples, they do not need any blood relationship. With just one order and one oath, a nomadic people can grow in the shortest time and become an emerging large tribe with a large population.
Faced with the rapid development and growth of the Hualie army, Xiao Nojin and Xiao Xiaoxian, who controlled the Liao Kingdom, had no choice but to order the counties to work hard to defend and protect the country and the people, hoping to stop the Hualie army's further military operations through the cold weather and win a chance to breathe.
The reversal of strength and weakness has been revealed to the people of the world. Around the Liao Kingdom, various tribes that have been oppressed by the Khitans over the years have roared up and formed a stream of troops, rushed into the territory of the Khitans, burned, killed and looted, seized their property, food, cattle and sheep, and took them back to support their relatives and children.
In the border area, countless Khitans cried and wailed, and were displaced. The tragic experiences that the Khitans inflicted on other nations in the past are now added to the Khitans.
In the eastern part of the Liao Kingdom, the Khitans in various regions were able to form an army to counterattack the various tribes, but Xiao Nojin was still issuing orders to move northwest as much as possible to defend the areas near Shangjing, so as not to be invaded too deeply by the cavalry army of Hualie's tribe and threaten the security of Shangjing.
At this moment, the military operations of the Hualie army began to slow down. After all, it was already winter. No matter how the soldiers of the Hualie army resisted the cold, they would still be affected by the cold weather. The northern part of the continent is extremely cold, which is hard to withstand. If this continues, it will probably cause non-combat reductions in subordinates, and the losses will be greater than gains.
In Jingbian City, a grand shaman prayer ceremony is being held. Countless people crowded on the streets of Jingbian City, looking at the high platform set up in the center of the city, and expressions of excitement and piety appeared on their faces.
These people are all immigrants. Their sources include Han people, Shubu people, Khitan people and Dangxiang people. But now, they are all ordinary tribes of the Hualie tribe, and there is no difference in their identities.
Under the order of the Hualie tribe, they moved here, and each household was allocated land to carry out grazing and farming activities. All the Khitan tribes in the city and nearby have now become slaves, leaving Jingbian City far away and leaving this fertile land with abundant water and grass for later immigrants.
On the platform, more than a dozen shamans were playing music, their faces full of piety and fanatic expressions.
And in front of them, the beautiful woman in bright shaman robes and dancing gracefully is the pride of the Shubu people. The most beautiful flowers on the grassland make countless people admire Meng Yilan.
Her beautiful face was also full of pious expressions, and she danced towards the sky with a bright smile, dedicating all her piety to the master of the grassland nation and the great immortal world.
Standing in the crowd, surrounded by countless loyal guards, Luo Dacheng looked up at the beautiful woman on the platform, secretly exclaimed and delighted, and a smile appeared on his face.
When the festival reached its climax, all the members of the Hualie tribe fell to the ground and worshiped the high platform devoutly, hoping to get the blessing of the heaven of immortality and live a happy and fulfilling life, and live a richer life in this newly owned land; or in the battle, they can defeat all enemies who violate the will of the heaven of immortality, seize their property and cattle and sheep, and achieve their name as a warrior in the battle expressing their loyalty to the heaven of immortality.
As the Khan of the Hualie tribe, Luo Dacheng had the right to worship him without much respect. He just bowed slightly and made a pious wish to the high platform: he should treat her well forever in this life to repay her love for herself over the years.
The festival brought the curtain to an end in a solemn and frenzy atmosphere. After this festival, Jingbiancheng will become one of the most devout cities in the area controlled by Hualie’s tribe, defending the border defense of Hualie’s tribe, so that the Liao people who intend to fight back will not gain any advantage.
Late at night, in the most prosperous mansion in the city center, Luo Dacheng hugged Meng Yilan and kissed her lips lightly. After a long battle, he enjoyed this rare and wonderful moment.
Under the steaming and roasting of charcoal, the room was as warm as spring. Meng Yilan's beautiful face was filled with spring, and she snuggled in his arms and endured his love.
Although she was confused, her mental state was no longer comparable to the past. At that time, because the practice of exercises gradually began to show signs of being possessed by the demons, under Luo Dacheng's efforts, she did not hesitate to use her skills to suppress the confused true energy in her body, and finally led her true energy on the right track and became clear. Now, she is Luo Dacheng's powerful arm helper, and has become an important force in his actions of mastering the divine power.
Sitting on the bed, quietly looking at the beautiful grassland woman, one of her formal princesses, Luo Dacheng smiled, slowly lowered his head, and kissed her bright and rosy cherry lips as bright as a flower stamen.
She was already pregnant with her own child, which made Luo Dacheng even more pampered her. She gently hugged her delicate body, just like holding a beautiful pearl.
