The White Horse Raids the Three Kingdoms

For example, the Bank of China said that it would point out the old Shang Shanyu and reveal Han's weaknesses to him.

When Han Wangxin surrendered to the Xiongnu, he agreed with the Xiongnu to jointly attack the Han Dynasty.

Other generals personally led the surrendered troops and participated in the battle against Han.

Li Xu, the captain outside the Great Wall, took refuge in the enemy and taught the tactics of the Han army to Da Shanyu.

After the news was sent back to Chang'an, it was deliberately written as Li Ling.

As a result, Li Ling's family members were beheaded.Li Ling himself led 90 cavalry in pursuit of the Han army in [-] BC.

The background of the era of Han-Hungarian confrontation makes it easy for people to ignore the fate of individuals involved in it.

Politically, the Hu nobles all married the Xiongnu princesses.

Both Li Ling and Li Guangli married Shan Yu's daughter, and Han envoys such as Zhang Qian and Su Wu were also sent Huns wives and placed under house arrest and detention.

Because of Shanyu's importance and their marriage, they participated in the formulation of the Han policy, and actively participated in the power struggle within the Xiongnu. In another way, they kept in touch with their motherland.

Culturally, Bank of China and others taught the Xiongnu Chronicles.

This is of great significance for the Xiongnu to count the population and livestock, calculate the national wealth, and recruit human and financial resources.

Historically, the Bank of China said that Shanyu wrote letters to the emperor of the Han Dynasty. He instigated Shanyu to surpass the Han Dynasty in terms of letter form, content, etc. It can be seen that the writing habits of the Xiongnu in the Western Han Dynasty referred to the traditions of the Han people.

On the vast land beyond the Great Wall, they may be mixed with many Qiang people, Tocharians, Wusun people and other foreign races who were also taken captive.It is also possible to continue to engage in production activities with the original small group as the unit.Men may marry Huns or Cypriot wives, and women may have new foreign husbands.

Descendants of these people may listen to their parents and recall vaguely a homeland they will never revisit.

Then when they become adults, these people will join the cavalry going south or going west to fight against enemies who have never met but have similar blood.

They will not give up in the slightest. Most of these "wolves" who have been assimilated are only left with hatred and greed.

Facing the blazing gazes, the Han generals didn't hesitate too much. They drew out their sabers one by one and shouted loudly, "Let's go!"

The low-pitched horn sounded again, which was the order for the army to move out, making this desolate land even more desolate!

Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it seems that this yellow land will never get rid of war and poverty!

The sound of this horn is the eternal melody on this earth!

In the sound of the horn, the soldiers of the Huns galloped out of the big camp, and the horses stepped on the ground, splashing yellow sand and sweeping across. It was also like ten thousand horses galloping, with momentum like a rainbow!

In fact, purely speaking of the degree of brutality, the Huns are no worse than the later Mongols and Jurchens!

Although there are no Huns among our 56 ethnic minorities now, in ancient times, especially in the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu still had a strong sense of existence. They were once the largest nomadic people in the north, and their strength was undoubtedly strong.

Although generation after generation of fierce generals and strong soldiers in the Han Dynasty gave the Xiongnu a severe blow and gave the Han Dynasty a chance to breathe, the Huns still existed at this time and did not disappear, and basically in the later historical dynasties There are also their imprints.

After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

The Huns also pay attention to iron and blood bows, and they are also a huge tribal system that adopts the whole people as soldiers. When its power reached its peak, it was really a terrible opponent.

As early as the early Han Dynasty, the most outstanding military commander among the grassland peoples except Genghis Khan, the founder of the strategy of the cavalry regiment, and the well-known Huns among the Huns, Mao Dun Shanyu, had led the Huns army under his command to conquer the The brave Donghu people.

He successively occupied the upper reaches of the Liaohe River in the Daxinganling Mountains through wars, and then led the Xiongnu cavalry to defeat the powerful Yuezhi people westward, and surrendered Loulan, Qiuci and other 36 countries in the Western Regions, and took all the fertile land in the Qilian Mountains and Tianshan Mountains into his pocket.

Then he conquered Hetao land in the south, annexed the Loufan and Baiyang tribes of Beidi, and connected with the northwest frontier counties of the Han Dynasty; Many nomadic tribes have expanded their land as far as Lake Baikal in Russia, and unified the entire Mongolian plateau and part of the Siberian ice sheet under their own soldiers.

Afterwards, the greedy war machine, the Huns army, turned their horses around and pointed their arrows at the Central Plains. They attacked frantically. They once invaded Yan and Dai, and occupied the entire area north of the Great Wall.

So far, the sphere of influence of the Xiongnu has surpassed that of the Han Dynasty by several times, with a territory of [-] miles from east to west and [-] miles from north to south. The grasslands and deserts in eastern Asia are all owned by them.

At its peak, the total number of Xiongnu cavalry in the entire tribe amounted to more than [-]. In stark contrast, the Han Dynasty at that time had only [-] troops, and the cavalry was even more pitiful. .

In fact, if there is a real comparison, even the Xiongnu tribe during Li Mumengtian's time and the Xiongnu Empire under the rule of Maodun Shanyu in the early Han Dynasty may not exist in the same order of magnitude at all.

So in the face of such a powerful Xiongnu, how did Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty make it slump, and even in history, finally completely withdraw from the stage of Asian history?

First, keep the horses.

In the early years of the Han Dynasty, there was a shortage of Han horses. Liu Bang’s royal driver couldn’t find a few horses with the same coat color, but the prime minister Xiao He could only ride an ox cart, because a horse was expensive at that time. Bought three thousand acres of fertile land!

Therefore, Emperor Wenjing began to raise horses frantically. The government set up 36 official horse gardens in Bianjun, which were directly managed by the servants, and there were more than [-] horse soldiers under him.

At the same time, all counties and folks were encouraged to raise horses, and it was stipulated that with one horse, three people could be exempted from military service.

In this way, China's horse breeding industry developed rapidly. By the late Han Jing Emperor, there were more than 40 horses in the government garden alone, and the price of horses on the market dropped to only [-] yuan when it was the lowest.

In the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, every street and alley in the north and south of the Han Dynasty was filled with horses, and there were countless herds of livestock in the fields. Anyone with a relatively wealthy family would ride a stallion, and you would be ashamed to ride a mare when you went out. If you want to say hello to someone, if you go to the banquet with shamelessness, be careful not to be kicked out by the host!

Therefore, in the late period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, after the Great War in Mobei, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could casually organize 18 cavalry to go to the frontier fortress to show off his might, and wrote a very domineering letter to Uwe Shanyu, the Hun, and gave him two choose

First, today Shanyu can fight, and the emperor will stand by himself.

The second is not possible, that is, the south is subject to the Han, so why bother to escape the desert.

While raising horses and exploding soldiers frantically, the Han Dynasty adopted a frenzied economic and plundering war against the Xiongnu.

Yes, you read that right, in this world, nomads are not the only ones who can plunder farming peoples.The great pioneering work of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was to carry out the plundering war against the nomads.

For example, in the Battle of Henan, Wei Qing's army captured a total of more than one million cattle, sheep and horses, and the total number of livestock in the border counties of the Han Dynasty is no more than this.

When the Han Dynasty became rich, the Xiongnu naturally suffered a huge loss. In the past, every time they invaded Hanbian County, they plundered only tens of thousands of livestock. Now they lost more than one million yuan in one breath, which is equal to the accumulated results of the previous 70 years. Lost it all.

Although the Huns lost little in this battle, their economy suffered a serious blow; more importantly, the Huns lost the fertile Hetao grassland and moved to the south of the Yangtze River.

Another example is the Battle of Monan, Wei Qing's army won tens of millions of livestock from the Huns Youxian King's tribe, which was ten times that of the Henan victory.

In the Battle of Hexi, Huo Qubing captured the Hexi Corridor, causing the Xiongnu to lose the Hexi Grassland and Qilian Pasture on which they depended for survival.

From then on, the Huns sang this famous sad song day and night, as if they were mourning.

Then, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty moved the people to the north to consolidate the results of the war. He sent more than [-] men from Pinglinghou Su Jianxing to build Shuofang City and Wuyuan City. Hundreds of millions of people lived here, farming and grazing, and using the people to support soldiers, further reducing the living space of the Xiongnu.

So far, the Xiongnu lost only one-seventh of their troops in successive wars, but nearly one-third of their livestock and grasslands, and they could no longer consume with the Han Dynasty.

Thus, a tragic migration began. A total of 10 soldiers and civilians of the Shanyu tribe of the Xiongnu left their homes where they thrived and thrived. They carried their tents and belongings on chariots and horses, and crossed one Gobi desert after another. He went to the remote and bitter cold land of Mobei, and never recovered from the fall.

The grassland has never lacked masters. When the once-prominent Xiongnu fell lonely, the powerful Xianbei became stronger.

Now, this group of wolves, driven mad by the bitter cold, decided to put all their eggs in one basket again, and launched their attack and aggression when the Han Dynasty, a country that almost conquered them, fell into war and was extremely weak.

Then by digesting the "fat" materials bitten and torn from the behemoth of the Han Dynasty, strengthen the strength of their Huns, pass this year, and then turn their troops back to the grasslands, and take back their lords from the Xianbei robbers Site!
