On the grassland, the sound of horse hooves sounded loudly.
The gate of the camp was opened in advance, and a group of knights who came from outside were able to enter the camp smoothly.
Entering the camp, Yushan reined in the reins and dismounted. Someone immediately came to hold the horse.
The dozens of knights following him all dismounted and surrounded Yu Shan in the middle.
Soon, Yu Shan arrived outside a large tent.
Looking at the Sirius flag swaying in the wind behind the tent, Yu Shan's face became increasingly gloomy.
At this moment, a man walked out of the military tent. He was Yushan's nephew Wumeng.
"Your Majesty, please come in quickly, the Great Chanyu is waiting for you!" Wumeng said solemnly.
Yu Shan did not dare to neglect, so he quickly walked into the big tent.
Inside the big tent, there were more than a dozen people in Wuyangyang, all of whom were sons and nephews of Yushan, and they were all trustworthy people.
On the soft couch in the center of the military tent, the current Chanyu Maochu was lying on it, with a blood-stained bandage wrapped around his body.
Due to excessive blood loss, Mao Chu's face turned pale, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a living dead.
Seeing this scene, Yushan was greatly shocked. It was hard for him to imagine that the father of Hero I would become like this.
I remember that the last time the two of them separated was about half a year ago. At that time, the father and son had agreed to go hunting together next time they met.
"Father, my son is back!" Yu Shan knelt in front of the bed.
After a few breaths, Mao Chu opened his eyes and turned slightly to look at his son.
"How many people...have you brought?"
Although he really wanted to care about his son, for Mao Chu, the inheritance of the Xiongnu was undoubtedly more important at the moment.
"My son has brought 20,000 fine cavalry!"
Hearing this, Mao Chu nodded and said: "In a moment, you...in my name, summon...all the ministries for discussion. Those who don't come...will be killed as soon as possible!"
Mao Chu spoke intermittently, as if he was going to die in the next moment.
"My son understands!"
After pausing for a few seconds and waiting for his breath to come over, Mao Chu continued: "You have to be careful... Anlida, he and the Western Man... may be colluding!"
Anlida is the current Righteous King of the Huns, the younger brother of Mao Chu, and the second in line of succession to Chanyu.
In other words, this guy was Yushan's biggest competitor, not to mention that now he has hooked up with Ximan.
A few days ago, Yushan won a victory on the southern front, but then bad news came. The main force on the middle line was attacked by the Western Barbarians, and the army suffered heavy losses.
Of course, the Western Barbarians did not gain any benefit from this battle. Jinanta's elite suffered heavy losses, losing more than 5,000 lives.
However, although the Huns were on guard, the Chanyu was hit by an arrow.
Fortunately, Mao Chu blocked the news immediately, so the entire royal court was not thrown into chaos.
However, he did not show up for several days, which still aroused rumors, and some people even tried to break into the palace, and were eventually beheaded by the grandson of the tent.
The first ones who came were just captains of thousands, so these juniors could naturally stop them.
But later on, when the princes of various tribes wanted to visit, the sons of Yushan could not stop them, so Mao Chu immediately recalled his eldest son.
"Go!" Mao Chu's voice was trembling, and his breath was even more disordered.
Although he was worried about his father, he had more important things to do at the moment. Yu Shan did not act like a girl and saw him simply stand up.
"Everyone, get up..." Yu Shan said to the younger members of the clan.
Among these people, the oldest is only twenty-two or thirty years old, and the youngest is only seven or eight years old.
As the successor of Shanyu, Yushan has extremely high prestige among these people, and everyone should obey his words.
"Now there are people who want to seize the power of my family and destroy the great Xiongnu. As the descendants of the gods, you must do your best to defeat these people!"
The Xiongnu claimed that Chan was the son of the God of Heaven, so the descendants of Shanyu's family were naturally the descendants of the God of Heaven.
"Those who have already led the troops should return to their respective units and only listen to my orders!"
There were dozens of people present, thirteen of whom had already led the troops. The total strength was seven to eight thousand, which was a force that could not be ignored.
The key point of Yushan's last sentence is to unify the thoughts of his nephews and prevent them from being "bewitched" by their superiors.
After everyone responded, the dozen or so people leading the army left the military tent.
Looking at the remaining children, Yushan solemnly said: "Little boys, hold on to the sabers in your hands and guard your father!"
"yes!"
Although the children at the scene were young, they still had a look of determination on their faces. They were children who grew up on the grassland.
This scene made Yu Shan feel relieved, and then he walked out of the military tent.
Time must not be wasted. The most important thing right now is to decide on the inheritance. The longer it is delayed, the more likely things will happen.
In addition to the military tent, Yu Shan looked at his personal guards and said: "Immediately go and send an order to the princes and generals, asking them to come to Shan Yu's tent in the afternoon to discuss matters!"
After everyone got the order, they immediately left. Yushan immediately found someone and asked them to find the generals of the Royal Guards.
The royal court originally had an army of 100,000, of which 30,000 were directly under Shanyu's control. Although more than 5,000 were lost in this battle, there are still 25,000 cavalry left.
Including the 20,000 cavalry brought by Yushan, he can control more than 40,000 troops. Even if other forces outside the royal court rebel, he will not be too worried.
Of course, it is never advisable to be conceited at any time, so Yushan will still do his best to properly deploy his troops.
If you want the army to be able to move forward, you must at least meet with the general who is leading the army, so that things can be done in unison.
It was during the implementation of this step that something went wrong.
There were a total of five captains of ten thousand, and two of them said they were in urgent need and could not come for the time being.
You know, it has not yet spread that Mao Chu was injured. Yu Shan sent the Shan Yu's order to inform these people, but these people dare not come.
If these two men are not dealt with, it will be equivalent to giving up nearly 10,000 cavalry, which Yushan will never accept.
When the time came to show off his courage, Yu Shan didn't hesitate at all. He only took 500 personal cavalry and rushed towards one of the 10,000 cavalry.
Yu Shan was the Xian King of Zuo, and his status was respected among the Xiongnu. Naturally, no one could stop him on the road, so he appeared outside the main tent of Zhu Wanqi.
Captain Yi Qingcang left the military tent in panic. When he looked around, he saw that all his close associates had been pushed to the outside. In front of him were all the elite cavalry led by Yushan. He knew that a disaster was coming."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for my crime!" Yi Qing simply admitted his mistake.
Sitting on the horse, looking at the epidemic kneeling in front of him, Yu Shan asked softly: "What benefits has Anlida given you?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Qing was shocked and quickly replied: "I have no dealings with Anlida!"
Yushan immediately rebuked: "Then the Shanyu sent an order to let you go, why don't you go?"
Yi Qing didn't know how to answer for a moment, he was hesitant and at a loss.
However, the next moment, Yu Shan directly drew out his waist knife and slashed at Yi Qing, who was leaning back. The next moment, blood spattered everywhere.
This result was not only unexpected by Yi Qing, but also by the soldiers present.
All in all, why did King Zuo Xian kill the captain of ten thousand men? Why did the captain of ten thousand men disobey the Great Chanyu's order?
The low-level soldiers basically have no sources of information, so it is normal for them to not understand the scene before them.
At this time, Yushan shouted loudly: "I heard it clearly. Yiqing colluded with the Western Barbarians and intended to disrupt the Xiongnu. I, the king, obeyed the order of the Great Chanyu and killed him!"
"Your new captain of ten thousand is King Iron Sea. He will lead you on behalf of the Great Chanyu. Do you all understand?"
This Iron Sea King was naturally a close confidant of Yushan, and he had already thought of a killing strategy before he came.
Seeing the crowd gathering more and more, Yu Shan's voice suddenly rose and he yelled: "Have you heard that?"
