In the early period of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the capital was Pingcheng, and the kings often traveled eastward to Daning and Ruyuan. When they sent troops to Kumoxi and the Feng family of Northern Yan further east, they often took this route.
Geographically speaking, this is the sphere of influence of Youzhou Town. Li Keyong captured Youzhou and defeated the rebels several times. Not only did the people of the Han Dynasty in the Twelve States dare not make trouble, but even the nearby grassland tribes
He was also very dishonest and had been destroyed by the joint efforts of Shi Shanyou from Datong and Li Cunxiao from Guizhou.
Black Che Shiwei's strength is actually not weak.
When the Uighur Khanate was destroyed, and the Xigas people were unable to control the entire grassland, all the tribes enslaved by the Uighurs were freed, including the Khitan and Shiwei.
The Shiwei people were relatively strong at the beginning, and their nomadic range was north of the Yinshan Mountains, extending to the Tiande Army in the west and the Khitan realm in the east. However, they did not have the strength to occupy such a vast territory. After fighting the remnants of the Uighurs during the Huichang period, their territory was gradually shrinking.
Shanhou Dangxiang, Heishan Dangxiang, Tuyuhun, Tatars, remnants of the Uighurs and even the Xi people who migrated westward, who would not challenge them?
As a result of the competition, the Black Chezi Shiwei lost a large area of pasture and split into seven tribes. Now, one more surname has been added, namely the Eight Tribes of the Black Chezi Shiwei. Several of them are facing the "forest" because of their close proximity.
Under the pressure of the Khitan, he chose to make good friends with Youzhou Town, and the two parties were de facto allies.
When Li Keyong conquered Youzhou, Li Kuangchou recruited many Shiwei, Xi, Khitan, Uighur, and Tatar tribesmen to help him. Now Youzhou has changed its owner, and after careful consideration, the Shiwei tribes have joined Li Ke
Use and rely on each other.
The bloodline of Shiwei, the black charioteer, is very mixed, and the bloodlines among the eight tribes are also very different. The reconciliation tribe in the fortress is very powerful, and its bloodline is closer to the Yinshan Tatars and even Shatuo. It has quite a lot of Caucasian characteristics.
Sometimes people even confuse them with the Yinshan White Tatars and think they are the same tribe.
The eighth surname of Shiwei in the newly added black car has a strong Shatuo component. Most of them are the tribesmen who migrated out from the three northern Shatuo tribes, mixed with Shiwei, Uighurs, and Tatars.
The Wusugu, Mogeshi and other tribes slightly to the north or northwest are relatively similar to the ancient Wuhuan people in blood.
Mo Ge Shi is a transliteration, also called Mao Kaishi, Meguxi, Mao Kaishi, Mongolians. It was called Mengwu in the Chinese dynasty, and it was uniformly translated as Mongolia hundreds of years later. But there should be some problem here, Mao Kaishi is
The Black Chezi Shiwei or the West Shiwei, the first part of the Yinshan Shiwei, and the Mengwu Shiwei are the Northern Shiwei, which are closer to Tatar, and are even part of Tatar itself. However, because the pastoral areas of the Maogeshi tribe are more remote
In the north, they are connected with other tribes of Shiwei and the Khitan. Considering that they were constantly migrating under the attack of the Khitan, it is possible to merge with each other. Or, they themselves are the product of Shiwei's southward and westward migration.
The Ministry of Reconciliation originally herded cattle in the area north of Daning. After relying on Li Keyong, because of the favor of his adopted son Li Cunxiao, he moved further south to the vicinity of Daning, and also repaired the Tucheng in the Later Wei Dynasty.
Balala, the leader of the Ministry of Reconciliation, is only in his twenties this year, which is when he is extremely ambitious.
Like other leaders of the Shiwei tribe who migrated south, he developed a new livelihood of planting corn and wheat in addition to the traditional nomadic life, and it developed very well. He opened up hundreds of hectares of farmland in the Daning area.
The sowing was just finished a while ago, and spring wheat was planted. There are many iron tools in the tribe, which were learned from the Goguryeo people and are still used today.
Well, the traditional hunting industry has not fallen behind. The mountains in the Yinshan area are long and there are many wild animals. The Shiwei people often go into the mountains to hunt and obtain furs. Those relatives who are not as large as Beishiwei raise deer and hunt mink, but it is still a big deal.
The income is not small and should not be ignored.
On this day, Balala, who was drinking in Daning City, heard the news like a thunderbolt from the blue: there was a Dangxiang bandit in the west, and a small Yinshan Tatar tribe had been plundered and suffered heavy losses. The bandits were moving eastwards at a very fast speed.
Bala was surprised, and immediately summoned the nobles to discuss, and then gathered people. In a hurry, he only had three to four thousand people. After taking their horses and equipment, they hurried to the west.
It was almost noon, the sun was shining brightly, and a gentle breeze was blowing on the grassland, carrying the fragrance of green grass.
When I climbed up a high slope, I saw that the grassland to the west was filled with smoke and dust, and the horses and riders were overwhelming and boundless.
"Where did this person come from?" Bala looked very unhappy and asked to the left and right: "Could it be the Qibi tribe from the west?"
They only learned about the existence of the Qibi tribe in the past few months.
In the territory of Tiande Army and Zhenwu Army where their ancestors once nomadic, a "Supreme Khan" has emerged in the past ten years. With his strong will and ruthless style, he unified the Dangxiang tribes south of Yinshan Mountain, and then
It continued to advance eastward, squeezing the nomadic space of the Tuyuhun, Uighur, Tatar, Shiwei and even Shatuo tribes.
The Battle of Nuozhenshui that broke out last year wiped out the Yinshan Tatar elite, and then plowed the courts and swept the caves, occupying their pasture land, and did not give the Jin King Li Keyong in Hedong any face. The Qibi tribe was the black hand behind their eastward march.
, I have had several conflicts with everyone.
"It must be Qibibu."
"Maybe we even found help."
"The person who pretends to be the Supreme Khan is Shao Shude, the younger brother of the King of Jin, Shao Shude, King of Xia of the Tang Dynasty. The Qibi tribe must have brought Shao Shude here."
"Shao Shude has been struggling in the west, why did he suddenly move east? Isn't the west not enough for him?"
"He's too ambitious."
The more he listened, the uglier his face became.
He had been to Guizhou, met Li Cunxiao, and even met Li Keyong, so he had a certain understanding of Shao Shude.
To put it simply, he is the Khan of the Dangxiang people, and now he has conquered the Tubo people.
Dangxiang and Tubo were originally a group, just like the tribes of Beishi Wei, South Shiwei, and West Shiwei. They were inextricably linked. After the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, the Dangxiang people fled to the Hetao Grassland and continued to move eastward.
Going north, the power gradually developed into and outside the western section of Yinshan Mountain. The Tibetan Talent Wang family of the Black Mountain Party Xiang branch had even reached the junction of Tiande Army and Zhenwu Army, eroding the old land where Hei Che Shiwei once grazed.
Damn it, Dang Xiang is bullying people too much! The grassland in the west is not big enough for you to graze, so you have to come to the east to grab food?
"The ones coming must be Shao Shude's Dangxiang soldiers." Bala turned to look at the tribal leaders and said seriously: "The Tang Dynasty conquered Tubo, Dangxiang called Qiang Zhong, and we called Hu. Shao Shude unified all the Qiang tribes,
He is ambitious and must be thinking of marching to the north and east of Yinshan Mountain to expand the pasture for his tribe. He must be deeply loved by the Qiang people and has ill intentions towards us. The Abusi tribe has been severely damaged and reconciled. Nali and other tribes have also returned
Will it be far?"
"Why doesn't the King of Jin send troops?" someone asked.
"We can send people to ask the King of Jin for help, but we have to survive the first wave on our own." Bala said: "Abu Si's female Juan was kidnapped by him. I heard that he has become Shao Shude's family, and she is under him day and night.
Crying and begging, do you also want your Yan family, daughter, and granddaughter to be like this?"
"No need to say more, Mo Hefu, we will fight with Shao Shude." When everyone heard that it made sense, they immediately said.
"Okay, gather your troops to fight and fight them." Bala drew out his sword and said loudly.
More than three thousand knights quickly gathered on the grassland west of Daning City.
In the earthen city behind, some old people and young people also took up weapons and climbed up the low city wall to defend themselves against the enemy.
Several envoys rushed away to Yizhou, Guizhou, and Youzhou to ask for help.
Farmers, hunters and herdsmen from far and near brought their carts, cattle, sheep, horses and camels closer to the city wall to avoid being plundered.
It's too late to escape. Now we can only repel these people first. As long as we persist for a few days, the tribesmen scattered in various places will get the news and come to help one after another. There is no problem in gathering ten or twenty thousand soldiers.
"Woo" a long horn sounded.
The cavalry on the opposite side began to gather.
Bala could see clearly that there were about three thousand riders up and down, similar to the ones here. Judging from their attire, they had braided hair and fur clothes, and they were holding riding bows.
Bah! It’s indeed Qiang!
The Tubo people have braided hair, the Uighurs have loose hair, and the Khitan people have braided hair. They are very easy to distinguish.
"They moved!" someone exclaimed.
Bala glared at him and yelled on the battlefield. Is there any military discipline in this?
"Woo" short horn sounds were sounded several times in a row, and the cavalry on the opposite side began to speed up slowly and rushed towards this side.
"Behind us is our home, let's fight these jackals!" Bala raised his sword high and said loudly.
"Fight!" Once the barbarian's blood energy surged, he really didn't care about anything and rushed out following the leader.
Thousands of cavalrymen from both sides continued to accelerate, charged at each other, and soon strangled each other.
Yang Yue appeared on a high ground and carefully watched the fighting on the plain below the mountain.
The Shiwei people should have less than 4,000 cavalry, and the Shaqi Dangxiang and Tubo people should have more than 3,000 cavalry. Both sides used the traditional grassland cavalry and archery method. After getting close, they would circle and shoot arrows. Their archery skills were quite good. Some people kept falling off their horses and screaming in agony.
Sometimes he got too close, so he would draw his short weapon and fight at close quarters. After the kill, he would distance himself again, draw his riding bow and shoot.
This style of play is actually very dangerous. Because if you cannot control the distance well, you will fall into a close combat stage. If you encounter a Lancer at this time...
"The Po Chou clan's people have retreated." Yang Hongwang, the envoy of the Flying Bear Army, reminded softly.
The Po Chou clan is a powerful clan in Hexi. After Shao Shude occupied Lingzhou, he severely repaired them and fled to the west. Later, some of them surrendered in Shaqi, and now they have gone to Daning to fight for the Supreme Khan.
"Wait a moment." Yang Yue said patiently.
The fighting at the foot of the mountain became increasingly fierce.
The Po Chou clan had few people, and they had received an order in advance to fight while retreating, so they retreated half-heartedly. The Shiwei people became more motivated and started to fight, chasing after them.
To achieve great victory.
"It's time to take action." Yang Yue ordered.
Soon a flag bearer came over to deliver the order.
After a while, the dull sound of horse hooves sounded in the northwest.
The sound of hoofbeats was so heavy that even the Shiwei people who were chasing him were startled and confused.
The sound of horse hooves became louder, and a silver "wave" appeared in the northwest.
On the tall horse of the divine steed, a knight in silver armor is running towards him with a thundering force, holding a long and thick horse.
"Armored cavalry!" Bala recognized it immediately.
Such a tyrannical knight is like a god of murder when faced with light cavalry who don't even have a stomach on the grassland.
They have already started to move quickly, and they are not far away at all. They will be able to kill them in front of them very quickly.
"Being ambushed." Bala was shocked. He looked at his own troops who were struggling to hunt down the party members, and for a moment he didn't know how to gather his troops.
The sound of horse hooves also sounded in the southwest.
Another troop in silver armor, with riding bows on their waists and slender lances in their hands, appeared next to the woods.
"So many well-trained cavalry! Such sophisticated equipment! You still have to fight a fucking ambush!" Bala felt like crying without tears.
"Kill!" The armored cavalry from the northwest charged at them at high speed, their eyes behind the curtain shining with bloodthirsty light.
The Shiwei man was cut off at the waist and could not block a blow.
