It can be said that from any point of view, the situation on the grasslands during this period was undoubtedly a bit "ridiculous".
The sudden death of the Prairie King, coupled with the murder of his two beloved sons, caused the originally united royal court to suddenly fall apart.
In just ten days, what makes people laugh or cry is that five "Prairie Kings" actually appeared on the grassland, and it is obvious that these are far from the final number.
Because his death was so sudden, the previous king of the grassland did not designate his heir. But his remaining sons who were still alive immediately tore off all hypocrisy for the throne of the king and directly entered the game.
The theme of killing.
Just four days after the death of the Prairie King, tens of thousands of people started a large-scale melee in the Prairie Royal Court. Those fierce prairie cavalry slashed their scimitars on the bodies of the same tribe as themselves.
Horse hooves trampled on the corpses of the tribesmen.
The screaming, screaming, and killing lasted for four full days. In the end, several sons of the weak prairie kings were uprooted and their tribes were annexed. The remaining four powerful princes were exhausted after fighting to the death.
Yu finally stopped fighting.
The grassland around the royal court has been stained with blood, with countless dead bodies, burning tents, flags, and thick black smoke. This was originally a holy place on the grassland, but now it has become a place of death.
Four days of killing caused the most powerful tribe in the grassland to suffer huge losses. In the end, the four princes finally reached a tacit understanding, and they gave up this kind of head-on fighting that would hurt everyone. When one of them was the first to start
When leading the troops to retreat, the remaining three people also made the same choice at the same time.
The four beasts, who were exhausted from the fight, realized that they could not kill all their opponents, and finally chose to retreat and leave.
The once bustling royal court quickly turned into a place of death. After the war, no one had the leisure to clean up the battlefield. The pasture here had been burned to a scorched earth, and the corpses were everywhere.
A dead place.
The once most powerful tribe on the grassland has been severely weakened. And this, without a doubt, has brought opportunities to other ambitious people on the grassland!
The customs on the grasslands are different from those of the Roland people. The barbaric grassland people do not have "hereditary" rules. They believe that the strong is respected. The throne of "Prairie King" is not passed down from me to my son, but from which tribe is the strongest.
Which tribe's chief will be the leader?
Originally, the tribe of the Prairie King was the most powerful tribe on the grassland, with a population of hundreds of thousands. It had occupied the royal court and the position of the Prairie King for many years. However, after this fight, the tribe suffered heavy casualties. More than 40,000 people were killed.
Biaohan soldiers died in these four days of fighting, and in addition, during the fight for the tribe's population, countless ordinary people and herdsmen died under the butcher's knife of hostile snobbery.
And in the end, the tribe, which was already severely weakened, was still divided into four tribes due to the breakup of the four princes!
When the four princes chose to leave with their men, it had basically announced the decline of the strongest tribe on the grassland!
Soon, within ten days, the chiefs of all other tribes and tribes on the grassland received four letters and orders conveyed in sheepskin covered with blood. This practice is the prairie custom.
The symbol of the king's royal destiny.
These four "King's Orders" came from the four princes. They all established themselves as the new kings of the grassland, requiring all tribes to obey their orders and calls, gather troops, and then attack the "rebellion".
Of course, the so-called rebel is his own brother.
Only a few weak tribes accepted the call of the Prairie King, and these weak tribes had no choice but to accept it, because the splintered prince's army was not far from their own tribe.
Most of the tribes, surprisingly, remained silent! Some even powerful tribes, after hearing about the split of the royal family, even sent people to drive away the messengers with whips.
Go out. At the same time, the words came out, "The position of the Prairie King must be elected by everyone. Since the king is dead, the new king should be elected by everyone. You, a brat, want to give orders to me?"
Some large tribes even immediately gathered their cavalry. They were not there to help a certain prince, but to "get a share of the pie"!
In the originally powerful lion group, the most majestic old lion died. After the internal strife, the remaining four young lion cubs bit each other until their bodies were covered with wounds. Then when they suddenly reacted, they discovered that,
Suddenly, large numbers of evil wolves with malicious intentions appeared all around!
The situation is generally like this.
As the younger brother of the former Prairie King, Hamuye was once in Wang Tingli. He was also the trusted advisor of the Prairie King, and he was the most familiar with the culture of the Roland people. He was also called "the only one on the grassland" by the Roland aristocratic circle.
a civilized man”.
Of course, the "peace talks" with Du Wei also improved his status in the Prairie Royal Court a lot.
After the civil war in the royal court began, this smart guy immediately refused the solicitation and help from his nephews, and then took all his tribesmen with him overnight, even abandoning many cattle and sheep, and himself.
The pasture, led the army and tribesmen, and left the royal court as quickly as possible!
The smart Hammuye knew that soon, it would become a dead place. If he continued to stay there, he would be involved in the fighting, and then he would be destroyed!
His choice was wise, because after the civil war in the Royal Court began, within just four days, several small tribes in the Royal Court became cannon fodder in the war. Together with their masters, they were killed and made into "human heads"
shelf".
On the fifth day after Hammuye evacuated the royal court, tens of thousands of people were already exhausted from the migration process, and then he met Saladin.
To be precise, Saladin brought a total of 10,000 elite cavalry. Each cavalry wore high-quality subway armor owned by Roland people, and the scimitars in their hands were all made of Roland people's finest iron!
These ten thousand cavalrymen suddenly appeared in front of the tribe's migration like undead spirits, full of murderous intent, but maintaining a panic-inducing silence!
Then, the messenger sent by Saladin brought only one sentence to Hammuyeh.
"Uncle, obey me or die."
Hamuye looked at the tribesmen behind him. His tribe was not powerful. The population was only 30,000, and the army was less than 10,000. Coupled with the continuous migration, people and horses were exhausted, and the opponent was obviously well prepared and waiting here to relax and work.
...If they fall out, Hamuye believes that the other party can overwhelm his team with just two charges!
More importantly, Hamuye is very self-aware. He knows that he is not a brave person. Unlike most prairie people, he prefers to use his brain instead of using a machete to solve problems. Even when the prairie king was alive
, he also serves as his brother's think tank most of the time.
Although his brothers trusted him very much, those fierce generals did not have much favorable impression of him. Because of his reputation of not being good at martial arts, his subordinates also lacked brave generals.
Therefore, Hammuye made a decision after only considering it for a short period of time.
"Everyone put down their weapons."
When Hammuye saw Saladin, his humble nephew, again, he immediately saw a completely different temperament on this guy's face!
Biaohan, cunning, cruel...
Where is the same guy who crawled on the ground and kissed his brother's feet in the golden tent?
"From now on, you just follow me. I'll be like... no, I'll trust you more than that old guy."
When they met, this was the first thing Saladin said to his uncle.
Old guy...Humuye is not a fool. He heard a hint of resentment in Saladin's tone, and thought of what this prince had done, and the beautiful woman he dedicated to the king.
Do all this need to be explained?
What a cruel wolf cub... The most important thing is that he can endure it!
A short question, a firm tone, and a tone that leaves no room for doubt.
Hamuye sighed inwardly. Maybe this wolf cub can really become a big figure.
No matter what, do you have a choice?
The surrendered tribesmen were driven by Saladin's 10,000 elite cavalry and were restrained. His own soldiers had laid down their weapons, and then were dispersed one by one and began to reorganize. Moreover, looking at Saladin's excellent equipment,
The army... There must be someone behind this guy, a Roland man! Otherwise, with his ability, how could he be equipped with so many elite weapons and armors?
Saladin was a little dissatisfied with Hammuyeh's silence, so he reminded his uncle in a low voice.
"Uncle, I remember you once said that half-heartedness is not a good habit."
This sentence gently struck Hammuye's heart. He raised his head, looked at Saladin, and then he smiled.
He made up his mind. Regardless of whether the opponent was a Roland or not, he was now in the opponent's hands. In order to survive, in order to survive... he had no choice, no choice.
Hammuyeh made a very smart move. He raised his hands above his head with his palms upward, then lowered his head and walked to Saladin, knelt down, and said loudly in a respectful voice: "Noble, great Lord of the Grassland.
Master, king of tribes...I, Hammuyeh, am willing to surrender to you. I will be your eagle, your horse, your whip, your scimitar...your will is mine.
mission!"
Then, without saying any nonsense, Saladin looked at his uncle, the only "civilized man" in the royal court.
He was very satisfied with the obedience shown by the other party, and then he asked his question directly: "Uncle, can you give me any advice about the current situation?"
In the west of the grassland, more and more tribal people have gathered. Including four princes who have proclaimed themselves "Kings of the Grassland" and more than a dozen small tribes following them. On this grassland, more than 200,000 people have gathered.
of men and horses.
And just a hundred miles away, there are three powerful tribes on the grassland, sending more than 50,000 cavalry, watching eagerly. Of course, in name, they only accepted the dispatch of a certain "Prairie King", but they were too late to do so.
He has not joined the battle group yet, he is just watching from a distance.
And further away, some large tribes are also ready to make a move.
The four princes are now riding a tiger, but unfortunately they are not outstanding talents, and are even very short-sighted. They are arrogant and ambitious. When they started, they did not even realize that after internal strife, their tribe had lost the ability to suppress the entire grassland.
of majesty.
And the position of the ridiculous "Prairie King" does not seem to be so easy to occupy. The "King's Order" issued was despised by several large tribes, and those who came to serve were only some small tribes, and many of them had ulterior motives.
guy.
Now they regret it. But there is no choice in this situation! They must fight on. If they retreat now, with their own strength, they may be swallowed up by others soon.
All four of them have only one choice: kill their other three brothers and recruit their troops and tribesmen. Only then can they have the strength to protect themselves!
Of course, they also made a common move at the same time. They all sent brave envoys, riding the fastest horses, to the foot of the most sacred Snow Mountain on the grassland to ask for the great, omnipotent wizard.
Your Majesty!
If he can be recognized by His Majesty the Witch King, then his position as the Prairie King will be secure!
Unfortunately, after the envoy was sent, there was no news for many days. This situation made the four princes very anxious.
Finally, on this day, they got good news.
At the same time, the four "Prairie Kings" all received a secret letter, which was sent from a distance by someone with a bow and arrow into the camp.
At the same time, the four prairie kings received a letter of "vote for integrity"!
