Chapter 280: Attack of Temujin (2)
Amid everyone's confused gazes, Temujin stood up suddenly, walked slowly to the map, and said calmly to everyone: "The huge territory on this map, including Xianbei and Wuhuan now, was mine four hundred years ago. The jurisdiction of the Great Huns.”
Temujin looked at everyone with glaring eyes and asked loudly: "Who can tell me who won such a huge territory for the Huns?"
As soon as Temujin finished speaking, everyone, including Huchuquan, shouted in unison: "Mòdú Da Chanyu."
【The author only knows the correct pronunciation of Maodun, embarrassing! 】
Maodun was the first real king of the grassland. During his reign, the Xiongnu not only unified the grassland, but also defeated the Han Dynasty to the point where they could not lift their heads.
Bai Dengzhi besieged Liu Bang, and then humiliated Lu Pheasant in Manshu, which shows how glorious the Huns were during the Maodun period.
So even though Maodun succeeded Shan Yu by killing his father, he is still a hero in the hearts of all the Huns.
If a person has achieved too much, even if he has made some "small mistakes", he will naturally be ignored by others, such as Li Shimin and Mo Dun.
Seeing that the mention of the legendary Chanyu Motun really aroused the pride in everyone's hearts, Temujin nodded with satisfaction and rode the railway while it was hot: "Yes, it was under the leadership of the great Chanyu Motun that I, the great Xiongnu, swept across the grassland, suppressed the Han people, and made unparalleled feats..."
Under Temujin's deliberate exaggeration, everyone couldn't help but feel excited, as if they had returned to the most glorious era of the Huns.
"But why was Moton Chanyu able to lay such a foundation..." Temujin pointed to Monan on the map and said with a disappointed look on his face: "But in our generation, we can only defend such a large territory. on one's last legs?"
Everyone could not help but look ashamed. Ever since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty mobilized his country to help Wei Qinghuo to cure his illness and leave the fortress, the Huns have been declining.
Nowadays, even a frontier governor of the Han Dynasty (Qin Wen) can beat him to the point where he can't hold his head up.
The ironclad and cruel facts leave no one with any way to defend themselves.
Although the main reason for the failure of the Xiongnu has little to do with the people present, it is really surprising to think that the Xiongnu, who were once extremely glorious, now only owns Monan and Hetao.
Seeing that the heat was almost over, Temujin immediately encouraged him: "Motun Chanyu can achieve such great achievements, so why can't we? Temujin believes that everyone present is by no means weaker than his predecessors."
"Now that the three tribes are weak, it is a golden opportunity. As long as we, the Xiongnu, can seize this opportunity to conquer the three tribes and then unify Mobei, we will have the capital to compete with Xianbei Wuhuan for grassland hegemony."
Everyone's blood couldn't help boiling when they heard it, and even their breathing became rapid.
Grassland hegemony, this was such a distant and unattainable goal for the Xiongnu.
Hongnu chanyus throughout the generations have been striving for this goal, but unfortunately they all ended in failure. Can Temujin do it?
must be able to!
The Xiongnu fell to this point just because they lacked a great leader, and today's Shanyu Temujin is an invincible grassland war god, so why can't he lead the Xiongnu to the current prosperous age?
At this point, everyone present could not help but feel full of confidence in Temujin, believing that he would lead the Huns to regain their glory. Seeing the change in the spirit of everyone present, Temujin smiled and continued: "I also know that with the current strength of the Xiongnu, it is very difficult to unify Mobei, but it is not impossible. Method!"
Everyone was suffocated, and Huchuquan looked at Temujin in shock. He actually said that there was a way to unify the Mobei grassland? What a joke!
"Mobei is just a pool of stagnant water. We have been fighting all year round, but no one can do anything about it. Now that all the elites of the three tribes have been injured, even if I, the Xiongnu, don't send troops, will the other tribes let the three tribes go?"
Hu Chuquan was stunned. Yes, even if the Xiongnu did not send troops, other tribes who had grudges against the three tribes would still send troops to attack them. Wouldn't it be easier for them then?
“The biggest purpose of the Xiongnu sending troops this time is not to expand their strength, but to muddy the stagnant waters of Mobei, so that the various tribes in Mobei can kill each other and fall into endless wars to consume their own strength.”
Seeing that everyone was dumbfounded, Temujin nodded with satisfaction and continued: "When they have polished off their information, if I, the Huns, send out a large number of troops, I will naturally be able to easily conquer Mobei."
“Great Dan Yu Yingming!”
Fanatical roars roared out, and everyone was filled with confidence by the scene described by Temujin, and even seemed to see the Huns once again becoming the overlord of the grassland.
Seeing Liu Bao shouting along with everyone, Hu Chuquan finally understood why this ambitious nephew was so determined to support Temujin.
Liu Bao was young and inexperienced after all. Although he was ambitious and driven, he was also an angry young man at heart. Therefore, he was simply deceived by Temujin and believed in Temujin's lie about recasting the glory of the Huns.
This is called sacrificing small details for the sake of righteousness!
Hu Chuquan is no longer that ignorant young man. Temujin’s plan seems to him to be very good, but it is also very difficult to implement. If it cannot succeed, then what’s the point of making a good plan?
Huchuquan looked at Temujin with a serious face and asked in a deep voice: "May I ask Shanyu, how do you plan to muddy the stagnant water in Mobei?"
Temujin smiled indifferently and said slowly: "Destroy their clan and annex their people, but do not occupy their land."
Huchuquan frowned slightly. The total population of the three tribes was about 300,000. If they were all annexed, they could repair most of the Huns' losses. But if they didn't occupy all the land, how could they unify Mobei?
Temujin naturally saw Huchuquan's doubts and slowly explained: "Second brother, you said that the Huns want to use the territory of the three tribes to make friends with 'Shiwei', what will be the result?"
Huchuquan's pupils shrank, and he finally understood Temujin's method of muddying the waters.
The Shiwei people in Mobei are actually the predecessors of the future Mongolian people.
Shiwei is the largest tribe in Mobei, and is also the most likely to unify the Mobei tribe. It has 400,000 people and 100,000 cavalry.
The Shanyus of Shiwei in the past dynasties were all ambitious and wanted to unify Mobei. It is not difficult to imagine that if Shiwei obtained the land of the three tribes at once, his power would increase greatly, and he would inevitably embark on the journey to unify Mobei.
By then Shiwei will definitely encounter joint resistance from all ethnic groups in Mobei. While the Xiongnu are recuperating and regaining their strength, they are also always ready to set foot in Mobei at any time, and then unify Mobei and compete with Xianbei Wuhuan for grassland hegemony.
Perhaps Temujin is more suitable to be a Chanyu than me.
Temujin’s excellence made Huchuquan feel a deep sense of frustration.
Huchuquan sighed and said, "Huchuquan agrees to send troops!"
Temujin burst out laughing when he saw this, and immediately ordered: "We, the Xiongnu, will send 40,000 troops this time. King Xian of the right (Liu Bao), Zhebie, and Tuo Lei will go with the army, and King Xian of the left will stay at Meiji."
Temujin, who was Genghis Khan in Mongolia, is now plotting against his ancestors. I don’t know what Temujin would think if he knew about it.
【Happy Children's Day to everyone, I guess not many minors will read this book. The second update is in the evening. 】
