There is one foot three feet of snow, no more than a horse's hoof. Mobile version https:m.
Compared to the snowfall in the capital city of Dalong Dynasty, the snowfall in the Turkic tribes was even worse. As far as the eye could see, the sky and the earth were all covered in snow.
The snow-covered road made it difficult to find, but a mighty and continuous group of cavalry was on its way without any hindrance, and accurately found the road they had walked in the past in the snow.
There are tens of thousands of cavalrymen. Looking at the dense darkness, it is as depressing as dark clouds falling from the sky.
The cavalrymen under the tens of thousands of cavalrymen were all majestic and powerful Turkic horses. The cavalrymen who were rushing in the cold snow sneezed from time to time, and the heat filled the air.
Tens of thousands of cavalry were dispatched with great force, but the thick snow seemed to be the best shock absorber, completely covering the sound of horse hooves.
An exquisite and spacious carriage drove in the middle of the cavalry team, tightly protected by the cavalry in the middle.
A horseman came in the opposite direction through the snow and tied the war horse in front of the carriage: "Princess, the situation of the Tuoba tribe has been clearly investigated. Now they are making fire to cook. They are defenseless. There are 7,000 warriors and war horses.
Fifteen thousand horses, and more than 30,000 people, young and old, orphans and widows.”
A bright wrist stretched out from the carriage, and the cavalryman immediately handed over the information in his hand.
A moment later, a clear and majestic voice came from the carriage: "After the ceremony, I ordered General Khanna to detach a cavalry of 3,000 people and detour from the west of the Tuoba tribe to attack when the time comes. General Shi Sizhe led 2,000 cavalrymen.
The cavalry will take a detour three miles away from the king's tent of the Tuoba tribe. Do not act rashly and wait for my princess's order."
"It's an order."
"Commander Morton sent a team of envoys to the Tuoba tribe. After Generals Khanna and Shi Sizhe made arrangements, they went to recruit Tuoba King Tuoba Khan."
"As ordered, Princess, what should I do if the Tuoba tribe refuses to surrender to my Huyan tribe?"
"Similar to the Tuli tribe of the Rouran tribe, there can only be one king on the grassland, and that is me, the Huyan tribe."
"Follow orders."
The person in the carriage who was dressed in military uniform was none other than Princess Wanyan Yanyu of the Kingdom of Jin.
Through the bright light in the carriage, Yan Yu was reading a book with a meticulous expression. There was a maid serving beside her and there was nothing else in the huge carriage.
It is unbelievable that Yan Yu, a member of the female class, dared to lead tens of thousands of cavalry on an expedition.
Moreover, it is not surprising that nomadic people like the Turks regard women as accessories.
Yan Yu married Hu Yanyu, the second prince of the Huyan tribe, as the eldest princess of Jin Kingdom, just for the dream she swore for love in her heart.
Even though Huyanyu is not taken seriously by the Huyan tribe, the eldest princess of Jin is different. As the eldest princess of a country, she is not much more noble than the Huyan tribe.
After marrying into the Huyan tribe, Yan Yu used the dowry she brought from the Kingdom of Jin to win over people's hearts, develop her own confidants, and cultivate her confidants.
The various Turkic tribes do not have the same concept of the Han people as the emperor, the father, the son and the son. They have always believed that the strong are respected, and some people were a little shy about Yan Yu's wooing at the beginning.
Over time, gold, silver, jewelry, silk tea, these rare things on the grassland, coupled with Yan Yu's ability to inspire people, gradually many generals began to tilt the balance towards a woman like Yan Yu.
Especially after knowing that her husband, the second prince Hu Yanyu, did not care about this matter, many generals who were convinced by the eldest prince Hu Yanchile were gradually taken under Yan Yu's command.
Compared to the outspoken eldest prince Huyan Chile, Yan Yu's ability to depict big cakes gradually warmed up a group of Huyan tribe generals.
Unifying the grassland, leaving only one tribe on the grassland, the most powerful tribe, the Huyan tribe, was born from their hands. They will be believed and worshiped by future generations.
No one can bear the temptation to let his tribe replace the already existing royal court of Spies and become the king of the grassland.
Things unfolded slowly and secretly. When Hu Yanzhuo, the king of the Huyan tribe, discovered that something was wrong, Yan Yu already had the appeal in the Huyan tribe that could respond to hundreds of calls.
In addition, in order to avoid enmity with the Jin Kingdom, Huyan King Huyanzhuo could only allow the situation of two opposing powers to appear in the Huyan tribe. On one side was the eldest prince Huyanchile, whose people's hearts were gradually unstable, and on the other side was Yan Yu who was in the prime of his life.
The reason for this situation is that Yan Yu, with his eloquent words and eloquence, drew a huge cake for the people of the Huyan tribe.
Snowfall on the grasslands is something that all Turkic tribes do not like very much, because when heavy snow falls, countless cattle and sheep of their tribe will freeze to death.
Warm tents are not enough for people to live in, so how can we provide shelter for cattle and sheep? We can only watch them freeze to death, roast them with tears in their eyes, and their mouths are full of oil.
The heavy snow covering the grassland is the most difficult time for each tribe. No one can resist the natural disaster, not the Han people, not even the Turkic tribes who make a living by herding and regard cattle and sheep as their lives.
Yan Yu, who gradually came to power, began to form a caravan to try to trade with the Dalong Dynasty, but failed. Then he traded with the Kingdom of Jin. With the name of the eldest princess of the Kingdom of Jin as his support, the caravan of the Kingdom of Jin started a mutually beneficial trade with the Huyan tribe.
The Kingdom of Jin needed strong horses to form its cavalry, and the Huyan tribe needed silk and food to survive the five cold months of winter.
The Queen of Jin Kingdom was the only one who knew about Yan Yu's ambitions. The words Queen Wanyan Wanyan said before Yan Yu married the Huyan tribe were still a little chilling when she recalled them occasionally.
For the sake of a man, he would not hesitate to plunge the world into war. This kind of thinking is too cruel and vicious.
However, when the queen knew that the Jin caravan had started border trade, it was too late to stop it. At that time, the Huyan tribe had already accumulated a large amount of food under Yan Yu's operation.
The first snowfall of the cold winter fell about a month ago. Yan Yu knew that his opportunity had come, so he strongly persuaded Huyanzhuo to attack the surrounding small tribes and slowly strengthen the Huyan tribe.
As the king of the Huyan tribe, Hu Yanzhuo is more ambitious than others, but he is also very cautious. He is afraid that other tribes of the same size as him will not sit back and watch the growth of the Huyan tribe and will definitely hinder it, making him unable to make up his mind again and again.
Yan Yu told the Huyan tribe that no tribe would hoard as much food as the Huyan tribe. Even if they knew about it, they could only sit back and watch without doing anything.
If you have too much time to take care of yourself, how can you hinder the growth of the Huyan tribe?
However, Hu Yanzhuo did not agree with Yan Yu to send out all the troops and destroy several surrounding tribes in one go. Instead, he went through the process step by step, first allocating 5,000 elite soldiers to try.
Although Yan Yu was annoyed by Hu Yanzhuo's timidity, she did not refuse. She knew that once Hu Yanzhuo tasted the sweetness, her inner desires would expand endlessly.
It can be seen that Yan Yu has a good grasp of people's hearts.
The five thousand elite soldiers of the Huyan tribe marched directly towards the Rouran tribe under the command of Yan Yu. The attack method that had been calculated dozens of times in their hearts was masterfully commanded by Yan Yu.
They laid an ambush, sent people to persuade them to surrender, and attached themselves to the Huyan tribe. How could King Rouran be willing to become a vassal of the Huyan tribe and directly expel the Huyan tribe's envoys.
That night, as the sound of horns pierced the tranquility of the Rouran tribe, five thousand elite cavalry launched an undeclared war against the Rouran tribe.
The Rouran tribe was caught off guard and was killed by a sudden attack of 5,000 cavalry. There were countless casualties and the Rouran King was beheaded directly.
In this battle, they captured 2,000 Rouran tribesmen cavalry, more than 10,000 young and old, more than 20,000 cattle and sheep, and 4,000 horses. They won the first battle and returned home with great gains, which made Hu Yanzhuo completely excited.
