Chapter 71 Sweeping down the enemies of the emperor
Unfortunately, the Great Yuezhi was killed by the Huns and drove away, and instead established the prosperous Kushan Kingdom, known as one of the powerful dynasties that were as famous as the Han Dynasty in ancient times!
Instead, I didn't have the intention to seek revenge on the Huns...
It is said that the White Huns here are the remnants of the Great Yuezhi that year, and they are mixed with many nomadic tribes in the area.
Speaking of which, they should have a deep connection with the Northern Liang Dynasty of Juqu Mengxun!
Liu Jinling took his subordinates all the way to Jinshan at a speed of lightning. He became more and more shocked and confused as he walked along the way.
But I saw that the grasslands were plump and rivers were crisscrossing wherever I passed. Many tribes lived here, with low winds and grasses, all of which were cattle, sheep and horses. It was a prosperous scene.
Liu Jinling's eyes were pounding and he was surprised to see it casually. The White Huns are probably not small, but the string control men should have at least tens of thousands.
These people from the grassland are indeed like weeds, and they are constantly killed!
No wonder the emperor mentioned the White Huns specifically. It turned out that under my nose, they had developed to such a scale! I was suddenly shocked!
In fact, this is no wonder Liu Jinling. The land of Jinshan is under the jurisdiction of the Western Regions Governor's Office, but in fact it is outside the Western Regions and is separated by the Tianshan Mountains, which is inconvenient to travel.
Even Liu Jinling didn't think that Rouran and other tribes had fallen to pieces in just a few years, and such a large grassland tribe emerged!
At this moment, the White Huns Khan had already heard the news that Liu Jinling, the governor of the Western Regions of the Great Han Dynasty, personally led 5,000 cavalry to patrol the Jinshan Mountain.
The Shanyu was shocked and his first thought was to lead his tribe members to migrate and hide.
Since the Xianbei tribes were completely destroyed, which tribe on the grassland has not spread the reputation and merits of the Han Dynasty?
The White Huns were just an inconspicuous tribe under Rouran. If it weren't for the fact that after Rouran's defeat and the White Huns had expanded several times, who would have heard of such a small tribe's name?
Now that Liu Jinling leads the iron cavalry, the first idea of the White Huns Shanyu is to come and ask for punishment, or exterminate the clan!
He wanted to lead his subordinates to escape, but where was there any time?
The common nomadic tribes live by water and grass, and the tribes are scattered. The Han army has arrived at the doorstep. At this time, where can we have time to gather the tribes?
Therefore, I could only honestly lead my elders to come to Liu Jinling’s horse to apologize!
"Why are there so many women?" Liu Jinling frowned a little. Could it be that all the men died in battle?
"Ahem, the White Huns respect their mothers and implement a polyandry system. The clan leader and elders are all women..." explained the staff who have clear customs.
Liu Jinling nodded and stopped asking. However, there were many places outside the border, not a big fuss.
"Governor-in-chief should not underestimate these White Huns. They are good at metallurgical cast iron..."
Liu Jinling nodded and saw dozens of women in sheepskin robes kneeling on the ground, which still made him frown.
Especially Liu Jinling noticed that these Hu people were wearing iron weapons, and their craftsmanship did not look too bad.
And those noble people were covered with all kinds of gold jewelry, with a wide range of colors, each of which was almost ten pounds on them. They also made Liu Jinling's mouth twitch slightly...
"Governor, the reason why this mountain of gold is called Jinshan is because there are many golds in it. There are also some iron ore. Tribes under the mountain of gold have all had such skills and are often used as slaves to the great clan!" said the staff member.
Liu Jinling nodded, but he didn't know what his aide said was right.
In another time and space trajectory, the Turks, who also walked out of the foot of the Golden Mountain for more than a hundred years, were originally the forging slaves of the Rouran people.
Moreover, it seems that the Turks should have a close origin relationship with these White Huns.
The Turkic nobles were all known as the Blue Turkic. It is said that because the Turkic nobles had blue eyes, while the lower ones had black eyes.
However, let alone these White Huns themselves, even Liu Jinling doesn’t know about these things!
At this moment, all the nobles of the White Huns crawled at Liu Jinling's feet, waiting for the orders of the Great Han Western Regions Governor.
Liu Jinling pulled his mouth for a moment, and he had laughed. After years of military career, the wind and frost had been engraved on his face for a long time, as stiff as a rock.
"The emperor has an imperial edict," Liu Jinling said lightly.
Everyone was shocked suddenly, and all the soldiers of the Han Dynasty dismounted and bowed down and listened to the emperor's orders.
"The emperor ordered the tribes and other tribes to migrate westward to wipe out some enemies for the emperor..."
The nobles of the White Huns couldn't help but feel a stir when they listened to the translation.
But more joy? Then there is no need to die? The most important thing is that the generosity of the Han emperor spread throughout the world.
The Qiang soldiers who followed Liu Shengzhi were now in full bloom, and most of their relatives moved in. Now they no longer grazed hard, but had lived in the fertile land of Middle-earth to cultivate.
This kind of treatment made other tribes on the grassland extremely envious.
Of course, the Han emperor's cruel means to the enemy shocked everyone on the grassland.
All the enemies of this great Han emperor, whether it is the Huns, Rouran, Tuyuhun, or Tuoba, Murong...
Every large tribe that shocked the grassland was trampled like mud under the emperor's horse's hooves!
Under such circumstances, they actually had no choice!
The nobles of the White Huns bowed to the ground: "We obey the great emperor's edict, and the emperor's enemy is our enemy. We White Huns must use our weapons to take away the heads of any emperor's enemy..."
The Han army was in a big uproar: "Governor, with our loyal and brave soldiers of the Han Dynasty, what kind of enemies do you need to use these White Huns?
As long as the emperor passes down a word, we will definitely fight to the death and kill the emperor's enemy on the horse!"
"It's hard for us to get over," Liu Jinling's eyes flashed, with an indescribable meaning: "The emperor wants to attack Persia!"
"Then let's go to Persia!" Han Jun shouted.
The Western Regions are not too far from Persia, and business travelers frequently come and go. There is nothing that the Han army stationed in the Western Regions does not know about...
Even those white Huns know it!
Although they don’t know why the emperor suddenly became interested in Persia thousands of miles away, since the emperor wanted it, they took Persia down and presented it to the emperor!
"The emperor also wants to destroy the remnants of the Kushan Kingdom, and also wants to destroy the Gupta Kingdom... and a place further west!" Liu Jinling said lightly. (To be continued.)
