Mao Dun was overjoyed, this is the effect he wanted!

That's right, the purpose of agreeing to King Donghu's request twice before was to arouse the anger of the officials.

Because he killed his father to stand on his own, many ministers in the Huns did not accept him, which can be said to be discordant.

But now, with the help of Donghu's hatred, he has successfully united the hearts of the Xiongnu. As long as he attacks Donghu this time and wins another big victory, he will be popular in the Huns, and there will be no hidden dangers.

Thinking of this, Mao Dun yelled: "Okay! Immediately mobilize Qi's army and go to Donghu, but if there are retreaters, they will be killed without mercy!"

2 Chapter Twenty

On the same day, Modun gathered all capable warriors from all tribes of the Huns, a total of [-] troops, and in the early morning of the next day, they went east and went straight to Donghu!

The [-] army was full of murderous intent, from the nobles to the soldiers, all of them were full of anger and hatred towards Donghu.The whole army held a breath of anger in their hearts, vowing to wipe out Donghu this time!

When Mao Dun saw the whole army, he was filled with righteous indignation and fighting spirit. He was also very excited and excited, because he had waited a full year for this day.

In the past year, Maodun can be said to be reckless, swallowing his anger every day.

Killing his father to stand on his own feet, the hearts of the Xiongnu were scattered, and they themselves had no prestige. The tribes of the Huns were in danger of splitting.

Coupled with the great power of the Eastern Hu, the Xiongnu can be described as internal and external troubles, and may be destroyed at any time.

In order to paralyze Donghu, he ignored the objections of his officials and gave the Chollima and the Yan family to Donghu King.

For this reason, he was scolded by the officials as a timid coward, and countless people laughed at him behind his back and looked down on him.

However, Mo Dun knew that he had to do this.

Firstly, to paralyze Donghu, and secondly, to make the Xiongnu accumulate anger against Donghu.

Because the hearts of the Xiongnu were not in harmony, if they declared war at the beginning just because the Donghu King asked for a thousand-mile horse, the various ministries of the Huns would not respond one after another.

At the same time, if Donghu cannot be paralyzed, even if his order to declare war can get the response of all the Huns, but Donghu is powerful, and the battle will only result in a disastrous defeat.In that case, as Shanyu himself, he would be even more prestigeless, and it would even lead to the danger of a direct split among the Xiongnu ministries.

Therefore, only by letting the Huns accumulate enough anger, only by letting Donghu feel reassured enough and despise the Huns enough, can he give an order, the whole army responds, and at the same time catch Donghu by surprise and have a chance to win a big victory.

As long as he fights against Donghu and wins a beautiful battle, his position in the Xiongnu will be completely stabilized.Next, you can lead the Huns to rise and take off on this northern grassland, and even establish a powerful Huns empire.

Looking at the [-] army twisted into a rope due to anger, Mao Dun's heart was surging. At this time, he seemed to have seen the hope of victory.

Of course, he believed even more that he would be able to realize his ideals and goals.

Destroy the Donghu in the east, attack the Yuezhi in the west, conquer the Hetao in the south, and build a Xiongnu Empire that is stronger than the Great Qin!

Thinking of this, Mao Dun's blood boiled with excitement, he raised his horsewhip, and roared: "March faster, and kill Donghu by surprise!"

Seventy thousand soldiers rode on horseback and raised their whips and shouted: "Destroy Donghu, kill Donghu! Hurrrrrrr..."

…………

At the same time, the Great Wall Camp.

Han Xin had already ordered [-] cavalry to line up in the parade field of the Great Wall camp.

The Great Wall camp has a total of [-] cavalry, but now it is divided into two, with [-] under the command of Han Xin and Zhang Han.This time they have only one purpose, that is to set off for the Xiongnu, suppress the Huns royal court, and be responsible for deterring the Xiongnu, so as to ensure the safety of Li Yang's envoy to the Xiongnu.

The other [-] cavalry, led by Wang Li, sit in the rear, ensuring that they can deal with all emergencies.

Han Xin had already installed the saddles and stirrups brought over from Xianyang for the [-] iron cavalry in the review field. All the soldiers, riding on horseback, were as stable as Thailand, tall and straight, and more powerful than ever.

Saddles and stirrups caused a shock in the entire army at the Great Wall Camp.

Seeing the horses equipped with saddles and stirrups, the soldiers riding on them, relaxed and stable as Mount Tai, made everyone's eyes straighten!

Wang Li exclaimed directly: "This is a divine weapon!"

As frontier soldiers who have guarded the north for many years, they know too well the role of saddles and stirrups.

The reason why the cavalry cannot be used as the main force, but can only be used as a side force, is because the cavalry has poor combat effectiveness in addition to its mobility and flexibility.

The root cause of all this is that the soldiers are riding on horseback, their feet have no point of support, they can only clamp the horse's belly tightly with their legs, and hold the weapon with one hand, with very little strength.Moreover, it is easy for people to fall off their horses when fighting, and cavalry are also prone to fatigue, and their combat effectiveness is often inferior to that of infantry.

However, after the saddles and stirrups brought by Li Yang were put on the horses, things were completely different.

At this time, the feet of these cavalrymen in front of them have a support point, and they can use the strength of the whole body to their arms, freeing their hands, which greatly increases the flexibility of combat and the power of hacking and killing.

From Wang Li to ordinary soldiers, when they saw the saddles and stirrups equipped, they knew very well in their hearts that with the saddles and stirrups, from now on, the cavalry would become a formidable, fighting force. A strong main force.

Thinking of this, Wang Li and others all praised this artifact, and at the same time praised the person who invented this artifact for his great contribution, which will completely change the fate of the cavalry.

Li You on the side smiled proudly: "General Wang, in fact, the inventor and creator of this artifact is right in front of our eyes, and it is our supernatural dean!"

"Ah? This... this artifact is... invented by the coach!"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in shock.

At this moment, they believed in the second legend about Li Yang even more.

They had already heard that paper was invented by Li Yang, and kites were invented by Li Yang, but now, he has invented such cavalry artifacts as saddles and stirrups. Are there so many fetishes here?

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Li Yang with admiration, then gave him a deep bow, and said in unison: "The coach has a unique knowledge, is extremely intelligent, and has unrivaled wisdom. No one can compare with him. I admire him!"

Li Yang smiled and waved his hands: "It's just a small invention, it's nothing, what's the point!"

Humble, the coach is humble again!

Everyone smiled, they have never seen such a humble person as Li Yang since they grew up.

Is this a gizmo?

If it's a small invention, why hasn't anyone invented such a magic weapon for thousands of years?

Moreover, saddles and stirrups can completely subvert everyone's perception of cavalry in the past!

With this invention, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry has to be increased by at least two or three times.

Just when everyone thought Li Yang would really be joking, Li You nodded sympathetically and said, "You generals don't know something. If you compare the saddle and stirrup with the dean's papermaking and printing skills, this saddle, stirrup The stirrup is really a gizmo."

"..." Everyone was stunned for a moment, and were speechless.

Although what typography is, they don't know.But papermaking, as everyone knows, is a huge invention in the history of Chinese civilization.

If you really compare it with papermaking, the saddle and stirrup are really insignificant.

Thinking of this, everyone has a feeling of seeing a monster.

Coach, he really is an extraordinary man through the ages, very comparable to others!
