Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 340 The Bitterness of Mao Dun

It is conceivable that if this policy is really implemented, the Huns will really be doomed.

"All priests automatically become nobles of the tribe. They serve the gods full-time without grazing. The clan leader has no right to punish them without the consent of the high priest. If the sacrifices are insufficient, Daqin can make up for one or two as appropriate." Ziying continued to say what he loved Subsequent additions to this condition.

"I promise." Although the high priest Zhe Xing thought of the consequences of this condition, he didn't have the courage to refuse Ziying's condition.

He is the high priest of the Huns, and this condition virtually makes his status above the patriarchs of the various tribes. To maintain the status of the priests of each tribe is to maintain his status.

As for the future of the Huns, even if this strategy is implemented, the Huns may survive for hundreds of years. By that time, I have already turned into dust on the grassland. .

Moreover, Ziying only prohibits priests from marrying wives and having children, but there are no priests who do fish and water.

"Fourth, the cultural traditions of the Xiongnu cannot be changed, and the ministries cannot learn Qin language and Qin system, and the books of the south should not be circulated on the grasslands."

"I promise." Zhexing agreed with some decadence.

Zhe Xing, who is familiar with the Southland, knows that if he agrees to the condition of Ziying, the Huns will never be able to get rid of their ignorance.

Furthermore, Zhexing also believes that the more ignorant the clansman is, the easier it is to strengthen his rule.

Ziying really can't think of any good "cultural traditions" that the Xiongnu had at this time that needed to be protected. According to Ziying's understanding, the current Xiongnu belongs to the kind of culture that is completely blank except for primitive worship. .

The current Xiongnu is still in the extremely primitive era of counting with knots even in terms of counting methods.

As long as the Huns do not have access to excellent culture, no matter how strong their soldiers are, they will at most just go south to plunder.

There is no ability to rule the land of the Central Plains.

This can also be said to be a strategy to prevent the Huns from ever being able to rule the Central Plains. The reason why the later Mongol Yuan and Manchu Qing were able to form effective rule over the Central Plains is not unrelated to the vigorous acceptance of the inheritance of Han culture.

These four are the strategies that Ziying can think of against the Huns. To a large extent, these strategies of Ziying borrowed from the strategies of the later Qing Dynasty against Mongolia.

In fact, the implementation of these policies is also very effective, and the Mongols almost became extinct while moistening things silently.

Although the policy of directly burning, killing, and looting like the Jin Dynasty's policy of reducing the population was more effective, it was very easy for the grassland people to stand together and fight against the enemy.

The high priest Zhexing's lofty status among the Huns also made him a very suitable puppet.

I believe that with his brainwashing ability, he will be able to strictly implement these policies by then.

"It's just that my Daqin is temporarily unable to completely wipe out Shanyu's army, but I can promise you that the day my Daqin horses step on the grassland will be the time when you come to the grassland."

After finishing speaking, Ziying smiled and helped the high priest Zhexing who was kneeling on the ground to stand up.

"As long as I don't die, this agreement will always be valid."

There is no surprise about this point. Now that the Xiongnu is in a strong army, it will not happen overnight to surrender the entire grassland, and may not even see this day in his lifetime.

However, this goal that he had been looking forward to all his life finally had some light.

Now that a consensus has been reached, Ziying will not continue to waste time here, after all, the chasing army behind will catch up at some point.

It's just that now Langjuxu Mountain and Longcheng, the two most important places for the Xiongnu in Mobei, have been picked, and now Ziying's goal is how to escape with the remaining Qin army.

……

When Mao Dun's army arrived at Longcheng, there was no sign of Qin Jun.

Mao Dun silently rode on the horse and stared at the ruined Dragon City for a long time.

"Prince, are we still chasing?"

The guard next to Mao Dun asked, and from the guard's question, we can also see the change of the Xiongnu army's mentality at this time.

When they set off from Jiuyuan, they were still complacent, thinking that the Qin army would be wiped out immediately with a move of the army. However, after chasing for thousands of miles, not only did not one Qin army be killed, but this Qin army was wiped out to King Zuoguli first. Wang Ting burned down the holy mountain and flattened Longting, and the Qin army has not been traced until now.

So the guard asked directly, whether to chase or not.

Because even if he was a small soldier, he knew that at the speed of this Qin army, they would not be able to catch up at all.

As soon as this sentence was finished, the guard regretted it.I'm afraid that Mao Dun will punish him for his words that discouraged him so much.

However, to his surprise, Mao Dun just glanced at him indifferently, and said without any emotional fluctuation: "Chasing, of course we have to chase, we will go wherever Qin Jun goes."

"Let's pass on the recent events to Shan Yu with a falcon." Shuo Modun continued sadly.

Mao Dun knew that his future was over, and the things that this Qin army had done in Mobei had exceeded the limit that he could bear.

As soon as my letter is delivered, I am afraid that the siege of Jiuyuan will come back without any success.

The belief of the Huns in the gods is very pious and firm, so after Touman Shanyu unified the Huns, even though he deprived the high priest of the ruling power over the secular world, he did not dare to attack Zhexing. Instead, he selected warriors from all tribes to come. As a royal guard.

If the Huns knew that the royal court and the holy mountain were destroyed by the Qin army, Touman still led the army to confront the Qin people and did not return in time.

It may be difficult for him, the Shanyu, to gain the support of the grassland people.

More than [-] troops went to intercept this Qin army with only a few hundred people. I am afraid that even if the commander of the Qin army died in the desert, it would be enough to show his life.

That's right, it was several hundred. Through the surviving people in the temple, Mao Dun already knew the exact number of this Qin army, which was only a few hundred.

Where did the rest of the Qin army go? At this moment, Mao Dun had no mind to think about it.

The Huns in the temple are naturally loyal to Zhexing, and it is impossible to tell Maodun about Ziying's meeting with Zhexing, but the number of Qin troops still told him truthfully.

As for how they survived, it is explained that they relied on the courtyard wall to confront the Qin army. The Qin army was small in number and worried about too many casualties, and because of the pursuit of soldiers, they let them go.

What Maodun can do now is to chase after this Qin army desperately. Although it is difficult to catch up with this Qin army with perverted mobility, at least it cannot be lost.

Wait until the Huns' 10,000+ army returns together, and then let Shan Yu destroy this daring Qin army with his own hands.

10,000+ is right a few hundred, it's a bit bitter to think about Maodun, when did the Huns get pushed to the extreme.
