Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 190
After Qin Wangzheng conquered the Xiongnu in the north and Baiyue in the south, the land of the Central Plains fell into several years of recuperation, but a huge storm broke out on the Yinshan grassland.

A year ago, Touman Shanyu's wife Yan Shi [yan zhi] gave birth to a son. Yan Shi was doted on and Touman was old. She was worried that she would fall out of favor after Touman left, so she persuaded Touman to change her position. His own son, the prince.

However, as the crown prince, Mo du has always been brave, and his subordinates obeyed his advice. If he abolishes the elders and replaces the younger ones, he will definitely be opposed by many tribal leaders.

So Touman came up with a plan, summoned Mao Dun into the camp, and persuaded Mao Dun to go to the Yuezhi as a hostage and form a permanent alliance with the Yuezhi.

However, as soon as Maodun reached the Yuezhi, Touman rushed to attack the Yueshi, intending to let the Yuezhi king kill Maodun.

Unexpectedly, there was a flaw in the plan, and Touman ignored Modu's courage and wisdom, so that Modu ran thousands of miles on the vast grassland and came to Touman Chanyu's camp.

Touman, who thought that Maodun was dead, saw that Maodun suddenly appeared in front of him, and broke out in a cold sweat. He thought that Maodun's soul was still alive, and he came to ask for his life.

After calming down his flustered mood, Touman slowly got up from the bed, adjusted his clothes, and explained: "The Yue family plundered a hundred good horses in our Yinshan grassland, so I ordered the tribe to attack, but I never wanted to implicate you! "

"Fortunately, the heavens protected you and let you come back unscathed. Only then did my restless heart calm down."

"Right now, the stubborn Yuezhi has been planning to march eastward and harass our grassland. Now I order you to lead [-] cavalry to repel the Yuezhi!"

Modun's eyes were steady and he nodded silently. But when he came out of the tent, Modun was full of murderous intent, as if there was a deadly sharp knife hidden in his eyes. He inserted his fingers into the soil and struggled: "Can't I see that this is you? Is your conspiracy going to work? I will definitely take this revenge on you!"

The valiant Maodun led [-] elite cavalry, marched eastward, and repelled the Da Yueshi. The Yuezhi king was afraid of Maodun's bravery, so he took the initiative to cede the fifty-mile grassland to the Xiongnu for peace.

Touman was overjoyed, and talked with his subordinates: "If there is no Maodu, the Da Yuezhi would have plundered our land long ago!"

From then on, Touman no longer wanted to kill Maodun, but entrusted him with the important task of guarding the grassland and deterring the Yuezhi, so that the Yuezhi did not dare to invade westward for two years, and the Xiongnu's grassland gained a brief moment of peace.

Mao Dun worked hard on special research, invented a bow and arrow that could make a loud noise, and told his subordinates, wherever I shoot, you will follow me to shoot.

In the first few times, Modu shot at the mountain insects, birds and beasts, and the soldiers behind him followed him and fired all arrows. As for those who were hesitant or even did not shoot arrows, Modu mercilessly stabbed them all to death.

However, Maodun became more and more tricky, and shot at his own BMW and his wife successively. Many people dared not shoot arrows and were all beheaded.

After three months, Touman Shanyu launched the first big hunt in autumn, and Modun secretly shot at Shanyu's horses. Although the soldiers on the left and right were a little afraid, they were afraid of being killed by Modun, so they took up bows and arrows and shot at the horses.

Touman didn't blame him, it was all because of Modu's mistake, but the next day Modu shot at Touman, and the left and right also shot and killed Touman.

But Mao Dun was not afraid in the face of danger, followed his subordinates to confess Touman's various mistakes, and raised his arms and shouted: "Touman is dead. As the prince, I am naturally the new Shanyu!"

Mao Dun's tone was extremely cold, which made the soldiers on the left and right creepy, but they had already shot Touman to death, so they could only follow Mao Dun willingly.

However, the news brought by Meng Tian was far more terrifying than Mao Dun's succession.

Meng Tian stepped into the main hall, knelt down to salute, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Maodun succeeded to the throne as the Xiongnu Shanyu. Donghu asked Maodun for a BMW and his wife, and Maodun agreed one after another."

"Who would have thought that Donghu would intensify and demand thousands of miles of land from Maodun, but Maodun did not compromise, but took advantage of Donghu's relaxation of vigilance and attacked in one fell swoop to seize Donghu's thousands of miles of land!"

"At the same time, Maodun successively repelled the Yue clan, Zailoufan, Baiyang, Yanyan, Linhu and other tribes, occupied the Yinshan grassland, and is recruiting troops, intending to take back Hexi, Henan, and Hetao!"

In an instant, the court hall, which was as quiet as a cicada, exploded in an instant, and all the officials looked at each other, showing a look of horror.

In just one and a half years, Mao Dun succeeded to the throne, flattened Donghu, expelled the Yuezhi, and included all the places north of Helan Mountain into the territory of the Xiongnu. The speed is astonishing.He is even more ruthless.

Regardless of the opposition from the left and right, he actually aimed the arrow at his biological father. Moreover, Donghu was arrogant and wanted thousands of miles of grassland. Maodun flattened Donghu in one fell swoop, captured the people of Donghu, and massacred all the officials in the capital.

Even Meng Tian gasped for such an opponent, not to mention the court officials, they were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat.

Qin Wangzheng's heart is complex, cruel and cruel is the true nature of the empire, and Mao Dun does have his demeanor back then.

From the very beginning when he asked for his wife and horses, Mo Dun didn't care, it was like giving them away, after all, they were all his personal things.

But once the Donghu intensified and asked for land, Maodun refused on the grounds that "land is the foundation of the country", and even sent troops to destroy Donghu.

This is enough to prove that Mao Dun is by no means a reckless man, but a strong man who is good at planning.

Qin Wangzheng stood up suddenly, with a solemn expression, and said coldly: "General, order people to secretly monitor every move of the Xiongnu. If there is any abnormality, the general can directly mobilize the army!"

After all, Qin Wangzheng handed him the tiger talisman of the 30 Great Wall Army. This is a mission and a responsibility.

The general is away, and the emperor's order is not accepted, and Meng Tian can directly transfer the army, which is the greatest trust given to the Meng family by Qin Wangzheng.

All the officials stared wide-eyed, their faces full of disbelief, 30 soldiers directly awarded Meng Tian, ​​and they were not worried about Meng Tian's rebellion at all, what a great trust this is!

Meng Tian prostrated himself on the apricot wood floor, took the military talisman with both hands solemnly, his heart was like a rushing sea, and said solemnly: "I will not disgrace my mission!"

After Meng Tian received the Tiger Talisman, he didn't dare to neglect in the slightest, galloping fast on the straight road.

After watching Meng Tian leave, Qin Wangzheng's dignified complexion relaxed a bit, but he still had concerns and was ruthless, and he was summoning an army. He was going to fight Qin Guoyu to the death!

Qin Wangzheng glanced at the officials and asked: "Generals, can anyone go to the Helan Mountain grassland to spy on the Huns?"

It is dangerous enough for a sheep to enter a tiger's lair, let alone a sheep that breaks into the territory of a pack of wolves. If it fails, it will be killed by Mao Dun as an assassin. Who would dare to take the risk?
Under the eyes of everyone, Ting Weixi from Weidi walked out from the group of officials. He thought he was going to stand up and take risks, but he shook his head and said slowly: "Your Majesty, although I will not go, I am willing to recommend someone to go. I am sure that no one can do it except him!"

This sentence aroused Qin Wangzheng's interest, and all the officials also asked questioningly. Ting Weixi said solemnly: "Dangjun Sheriff-Chen Ping!"
