Chapter 375
"No, General Long Qi is the most capable of leading troops to fight in this army except me. If he follows me, once something happens here, it will be like a person in charge. These ten thousand troops are the top priority for me to stand out in the territory of the Huns. You must not make any mistakes! Although General Long Qi is not General Long Qi, I have a killer move, which is a gift given to me by the Emperor of Qin."
Seeing that Xiang Yu was indeed calculating about this matter, Yu Ji could only sigh. She knew that she would definitely not be able to persuade Xiang Yu.
However, the reason why Yu Ji was able to stay with Xiang Yu for so long and made Xiang Yu unable to get any interest in the second woman was because Yu Ji was really an optimistic temperament among women.
She was very supportive of Xiang Yu's decision because she knew that no matter what her opinion was, Xiang Yu would do those things. Since that is the case, naturally, Xiang Yu could not do these things with his unsupported emotions, right?
Another important reason for this is that Yu Ji is very confident in Xiang Yu's ability. She knew that if Xiang Yu wanted to do anything, he would almost certainly succeed. Since he met Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu has never failed much except under the command of the Emperor of Qin.
The reason why he was defeated by the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty was in Yu Ji's opinion because the power of the Qin Dynasty was too large and was not something that Xiang Yu could match. Xiang Yu chose the road to restore the Chu State, which was an impossible path, so no matter where Xiang Yu went, it would be a kind of progress in Yu Ji's eyes.
So, when Xiang Yu said such words, Yu Ji could only put his good expectations in the future. Although Xiang Yu did not tell her clearly, Yu Ji could feel more and more that Xiang Yu was no longer so concerned about returning to the old land of Chu, and the change happened when Xiang Yu and Maodun attacked the Qin Dynasty.
This year, the summer of the Huns has not yet ended. It should have been the time when the northern grasslands were rich and beautiful, but this year was like winter was approaching for the Huns.
After learning that Maodun had failed in the battle to attack the Qin Dynasty, all of them were crying and robbing the earth. For the most ordinary Huns, Maodun Shanyu had almost never launched any battles except for the great victory against the Donghu.
Not starting a battle would be a great gift to them. In this way, the women of the Huns would not have to worry every day that they would become widows after one night and that their children would lose their father forever.
Another thing is that once the battle on the grassland fails, I might become a slave to others, so reducing the battle is the most recognized thing for the Huns civilians.
After destroying the Donghu, Maodun wanted to attack the Central Plains, but in fact he also created momentum within the Huns. When he really went to attack, the people of the Huns were also looking forward to it, because they heard that once they conquered the Central Plains, they would no longer have to live such a wandering life, but would have a stable residence like the people of the Central Plains and no longer have to be displaced.
But obviously, Maodun's dream was shattered, and the expectations in the hearts of the people of the Huns were also shattered. The only thing that made them feel a little relieved was that the biggest difference between attacking the Qin Dynasty and attacking the Donghu was that even if it failed, even their Shanyu died. However, as the most ordinary people of the Huns, even if their homes were no longer complete, they would not have to be slaves to the Qin people.
So at this time, almost all the civilians of the Huns had a hope, that was, to quickly select another Shanyu. Even if they did not have the ability of Maodun, they would at least lead the various tribes that survived at this time to develop better than the Donghu people.
This is not because of anything else, but because if the Donghu people found that the Huns were not as good as theirs one day, they would almost certainly kill them. Not only would they take back the land they had stolen by the Huns before, but the Huns now would definitely become their slaves. After all, this was how the Huns used to the Donghu people.
The tribal leaders who survived the Huns obviously had this idea. The reason why they summoned all the tribal leaders of a slightly larger size in the Huns to the royal court was that they really didn't have much selfishness.
Under the leadership of the Xiongnu Shanyu Maodun, they were much better than before when the Huns were not as good as the Shanyu but when the tribes fought on their own, so they hoped to let capable people take power and continue to lead them to maintain the advantage of the Huns on the northern grasslands.
Xiang Yu also discussed it with several leaders of the larger Hun tribes who survived. Although Xiang Yu did not have any decent tribes on the territory of the Huns, he had 10,000 elite cavalry. For these cavalry for several days, even if it was these remaining large tribes, it would be very difficult to get all together with his own tribe.
Another thing is that Xiang Yu's ability was already well known to the leaders of all tribal leaders on the Huns' territory when he led the cavalry of the Huns to annihilate the cavalry under the Donghu King. No one would want to offend such a person. Otherwise, if they were really angry, they would have to rage on the grasslands of your Huns with these 10,000 cavalry. If they wanted to annihilate Xiang Yu, they would not know how much troops they would have to spend.
Thinking of this, almost all the leaders of the Huns reached an agreement, that is, they must treat Xiang Yu and his 10,000 cavalry as guests of the Huns like Maodun before. Only in this way can the Huns' combat effectiveness continue to maintain their advantage over the Donghu and Yuezhi, otherwise, the enemy would see the opportunity and would only attack them continuously.
This time, the Xiongnu royal party gathering was quite hasty. They considered the time when the farthest person came, and then only left one day's space.
So the day after Xiang Yu made the decision, he rode his horse to the royal court of the Huns. As he himself said, he only brought two of his own personal guards, and the serious general was not one of them.
Because Xiang Yu was located at the place where the Huns and Donghu were previously bounded, it was almost the most time-consuming to reach. When Xiang Yu rushed to the Xiongnu royal court alone, almost all the leaders of other tribes had arrived here, and they were mainly waiting for Xiang Yu.
The night when Xiang Yu arrived at the Xiongnu royal court, the meeting of the Xiongnu leaders began to be held in the royal court's tent.
The Huns did not do anything like the Central Plains people. They had no rules and no leader. As long as the leaders of the Hun tribe who were invited here were qualified to be the new Huns, the new Qianyu of the Huns, but there was not much scope. First of all, if your force could not occupy the top few of these dozens of people, then the Shanyu could not be yours.
Another one is that if there are only a few hundred cavalry in your tribe, you will certainly not have to join in the fun.
To put it bluntly, in the Huns, you are still awesome as long as you are awesome, and your team is awesome, you will have the chance to reach the peak of power. However, they are more straightforward than the Central Plains, and the principles are all the same.
When Xiang Yu stood in the Huns' tent and glanced at the less than fifty Hun leaders standing in the tent, Xiang Yu felt a little clear-headed.
It was just like what he had seen and thought before that almost all the leaders of the large tribe who had been following Maodun had lost in this battle. The people who organized this gathering this time were not very trusted by Maodun before, and that they did not participate in the deep-seated tribe leader in this war to attack Daqin.
However, Maodun's previous confidants had greatly reduced, but it did not mean that there was no more. As soon as Xiang Yu stood in the big tent, he immediately felt a few unfriendly gazes.
"Isn't this person a member of my Huns? Why did he appear here? This person followed Maodun Shanyu to fight. Maodun Shanyu was captured alive by the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. However, he returned without any injuries. There must be a fraud. He heard from the people around Maodun Shanyu who escaped from the Qin Dynasty. After entering the Qin Dynasty, Maodun Shanyu had ordered the killing of this person for some reason. However, he was ambushed by the Qin people at that time, and he was fled by this person in the chaos. Now that he thought, it was probably this person who colluded with the Qin people, so he killed Maodun Shanyu. Today, we should be here to kill this person and avenge Maodun Shanyu!"
Before the others could speak, one of the leaders couldn't wait to stand up and pointed his finger at Xiang Yu.
This situation was something Xiang Yu had thought of on his territory before. After all, there were still many tribes before Maodun and tribes related to it, but he also thought about it. Because of the situation at that time, it was impossible for too many people to know. In addition, Maodun Shanyu had become a past in the Huns, so there would not be many people who wanted to be enemies with him. Of course, this was just something Xiang Yu imagined himself. If these people really did not recognize him as a Central Plains, then he really had no choice.
After this person finished speaking, Xiang Yu did not immediately refute, but watched coldly. The expressions of the people almost fell into his eyes, which made him quickly know who was in the same group with this person and who were not hostile to him.
Sure enough, after this person finished speaking, two more people stood up one after another, pointing their fingers at Xiang Yu. The scene became a little subtle for a moment. If two or three people stood up, Xiang Yu's position would be a bit unfathomable.
"I am indeed not a Hun, but if I want you to destroy the country and the race, I could use the Donghu to kill all the elite cavalry of the Huns when I fought with the Donghu. Why do I have to wait for today? I and the Emperor of the Great Qin are irreconcilable enemies. You and others also have scouts lurking in the land of the Great Qin. How can you not know about this? If I die today, I wonder if I can become a move by you and others to establish their authority?"
Xiang Yu's words at this time can be regarded as a way to reveal the secrets of heaven. Although the Huns' thoughts are generally simple, of course there are also those who are tempted. Maodun was one of them back then, and these people are obviously the same.
Of course, they all knew that Xiang Yu was powerful and was not a Hun, so they had already discussed it in one place before they came. At this gathering, they took the opportunity to destroy Xiang Yu, which was considered to have established power. In addition, the union of several of their not-so-small tribes, they believed that the position of the new Huns' Shanyu must have emerged from them.
The other leaders of the Hun tribes had never expected this level before, but Xiang Yu actually said this, and they saw that it was really the case. If you just let you get rid of Xiang Yu, who can get rid of you again?
"How dare you, a person from Central Plains, talk nonsense now? Today, in this holy land of the Huns, we will kill you!"
The people who stood up looked at each other and knew that Xiang Yu could not continue to say this. It was the kingly way to cut off his head as soon as possible.
"Kill me? OK! But I heard the duel between the Huns, that is the most fair. Since I represent the leader of my power today, you will naturally fight with me personally! But I am afraid that you will say that you have bullied you, so today you will come up at the same time. We will compete in the middle of this big tent. Life and death are destined. How about it? But if you want to use the warriors in the clan, you should ask the dozens of other leaders whether they agree?"
Xiang Yu's move was like a straitor, which was really very smart.
Originally, those people were really planning to summon several warriors from the clan to come and kill Xiang Yu directly, but they never thought that Xiang Yu was so prepared so well that they were interrupted by Xiang Yu in an instant.
And according to Xiang Yu, you leaders who just attacked me can go together, but I will admit that I die. Now, they are a little bit difficult to get on the throne. If they don’t go, they will not be able to get on the Huns in the future. Such a person will not be able to become the Huns’ Shanyu.
