Chapter 179 The Xiongnu will visit
It is generally believed that Touman was the first person of the Xiongnu to be called "Chanyu", but the person who made the Xiongnu truly strong was his great son Maodun Shanyu.
Under the leadership of Mao Dun, the Xiongnu destroyed Donghu and conquered Loulan, Wusun, Gekun, Xinli and other countries.
Li Nian mentioned at the Great Qin Dynasty meeting that the insufficient population and property of the Xiongnu would definitely force the East Hu and Loulan countries to use them. This is what he was referring to.
In the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty was not fighting against the nomadic people of the Xiongnu, but the huge system established by the Xiongnu. It was equivalent to fighting against multiple countries with the Xiongnu as the core.
The Xiongnu who became powerful in the hands of Mao Dun had hundreds of thousands of people who controlled the strings. It was Liu Bang's "Baideng Siege" that was carried out by him. He was also the one who wrote harassing letters to Lu Pheasant.
Touman's eyes fell on the young man Modun and asked: "Modun, what do you think?"
The young man's words made him feel uncomfortable, because the young man's map cannon Include him in that.
Criticizing all the leaders as people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and who are afraid of the leader and the tail. Isn't he, the Shanyu who is also a little afraid of the Qin Dynasty, also among them?
Although the young man didn’t say it explicitly, he could still understand the meaning behind the words. And if people have ghosts in their hearts, when others mention relevant things, they will feel that they are talking about themselves. .
Although he was dissatisfied with the young man Mao Dun's words, Mo Dun also broke the originally dull atmosphere, which was beneficial to Tou Man.
He was also afraid of Qin Bujia, but he didn't want to surrender or escape without a fight. If Qin was just a mud tiger, wouldn't they have a chance to go south?
The south is so wonderful, with warm climate, fertile land, gorgeous clothes, exquisite and delicious food, and beautiful women.
In the original atmosphere, many leaders were obviously too afraid of Qin. Even if they said "How about we kneel down to Qin?", it would not be surprising, and it would even attract many people. recognized.
This is not what Touman wants to see, but because he is also afraid and can't take the initiative to say it, Maodun just becomes his mouth substitute, saying what he wants to say but can't say.
So Emperor Qin had great ambitions, but he didn’t?
He also wanted to lead the Xiongnu to become stronger, and to occupy more land for his sons to graze. The Xiongnu were a pack of wolves on the grassland, and he was the wolf king. How could he be so afraid before the war started?
After the battle more than twenty years ago, Touman has been trying to wash away the stain of the past.
After more than twenty years of self-cultivation, the losses of the year have been made up. Now the Huns have fat horses and strong men, and there are many people who can control the strings. No matter how strong Qin is, he feels that a touch should be OK.
But the other leaders feared Qin like a tiger. Although he was a Chanyu of the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu was not his party. Without the support of those leaders, this war would be difficult to fight.
Mo Dun heard a trace of dissatisfaction in Tou Man's tone, but he was not too worried about it. He was just an insect sitting in Shan Yu's seat, and sooner or later he would take his place.
What's more, he is the most outstanding among his father's sons. He is the prince of the Huns. Who else can his father choose if he doesn't choose him?
Even if his father makes him a younger brother now, he can't compete. The age gap between them is too big. He will be strong while his younger brother is still young.
Mao Dun replied sternly: "I think it's ridiculous to be timid before fighting. On the military formation, if you don't dare to fight, you don't need to fight, and you will be defeated."
"The Qin army may indeed be strong, but they are also human beings. They will die if their heads are beheaded or their necks are wiped. What is there to be afraid of?"
The young man is fearless, and his tone is full of fear and fear. If the Qin people come, then fight with them. They have one head and two legs. Who is afraid of whom?
Modun added: "And the news sent back is that Emperor Qin is very ambitious and may use troops against us. That is to say, this news is not completely sure of Emperor Qin's intentions."
Speaking of this, Mao Dun glanced at the tribal leaders in the hall: a group of insects were so frightened by an uncertain news. At least it would not be too late to be afraid after it was confirmed that Emperor Qin would send troops.
Modun knelt down on one knee to Touman and expressed his true thoughts: "Chanyu, I request to go to Qin to find out the truth of Qin!" Touman said: "How to find out?"< br>
Mao Dun said: "The Emperor of Qin will be very happy when he is called the emperor. We will go there to congratulate him. The Emperor of Qin will not refuse. We can just bring something that Qin does not have and I have as a gift."
“This trip to congratulate Emperor Qin on proclaiming himself emperor is false, but is actually to explore the country of Qin. Regarding our attitude, we must also let Qin know that we are powerful and cannot be underestimated or insulted, so that it can quench its desire to conquer us, so we must bring the strongest and bravest warriors in the tribe. "
< br>Hearing this, Touman felt that he had understood what Mao Dun meant. Meaning, looking at the son half-kneeling in front of him, he frowned: "You want our warriors to compare with the Qin people?"
One leader said anxiously: "Chanyu, no, You can go to congratulate Emperor Qin, but don’t let our warriors compare with the people of Qin. If we win, Emperor Qin may be angry and send troops to attack us; if we lose, Emperor Qin may think that we are weak and send troops even more.”
Maodun wanted to curse and use the “civilization” on the grassland. Use the phrase "to greet this leader. You haven't even compared it yet, so you are afraid that it will be like this?"
Anyway, we just can’t compete with the Qin people, otherwise no matter whether we win or lose, the Qin Emperor will be invited to send troops?
The leader of another tribe said: "I think it's okay! Just compare it with friendship and see how powerful the Qin people are. If Emperor Qin has the demeanor of a king, he won't mind."
"If we win, it will enhance our power and make the Qin people know that we are not easy to bully. They will be more cautious when deciding whether to send troops to conquer us; if they lose, how will the Qin people decide? , I can’t help but wait Let’s decide.”
“Furthermore, Shanyu and everyone, if Emperor Qin really wants to send troops, wouldn’t he send troops if there are no warriors from our clan to compare with the Qin people?”
< br>These words made many leaders nod, and their original fear receded. These people suddenly became clear-headed: Yes, if Emperor Qin really intends to send troops to them, it cannot be determined by comparing a group of warriors with the Qin people. .
These leaders began to speak out in support of Mo Dun, which made Mo Dun feel that these people were not completely degenerated into insects, and they still had some courage.
Mao Dun said: "Our warriors gallop on the grassland all year round. Even if they are not as good as the Qin people, their riding and shooting bravery will definitely not be weak."
If it were replaced by certain dynasties, , if they were facing a big coward, Mao Dun would not say that. They would think that their warriors are better than these dynasties in all aspects, but Qin deserves their respect.
Because Qin's achievements were so conspicuous that they, the barbarians, were also convinced.
In the early Han Dynasty, Mao Dun dared to lead an army to invade and surrounded Liu Bang on Baishan Mountain. He must have thought that the Qin Dynasty was destroyed and wanted to test the Han's weight.
The result of Maodun's test was that the man was okay, but just like that, so he wrote a letter to sexually harass Lu Fei in the future.
Ke Maodun didn’t know that his descendants understood that the Han Dynasty was powerful and should not be underestimated.
Modun continued: "In addition to exploring the Qin Emperor's intentions and knowing Qin's strengths and weaknesses during this trip, if we know that Qin is very strong and invincible, we can also make people stay and learn from its strengths. "Return."
Touman thought about it. After a while, he said to Mao Dun: "Since you proposed it, you will lead the people there."
After finishing this sentence, Touman added another sentence: "If you cause trouble in Qin, I will I won’t protect you!”
Mao Dun didn't pay attention to the last part of Tou Man's words and immediately accepted the order. He just wanted to visit Na Qin.
If Qin is strong, he will learn from it, learn from its strong points, and surpass Qin in the future. If Qin is only strong on the outside and weak in reality, then it will be treated as prey and hunted down in the future.
As for whether it is dangerous to go to Qin?
What danger could there be?
Could it be that Qin Hui didn't even want to show any shame and attack a thirteen-year-old boy like him?
No matter how you think about it, it’s impossible!
