Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 720: The Golden Man and Da Shanyu
"It's over."
Xiao Siwen and Brother Yelu Xiu were released from the house arrest of the Huns. They witnessed the 200,000 Huns and Xianbei cavalrymen left in the war, leaving only more than 100,000. The great Modun Chanyu was killed in the war.
A group of Khitan cavalry arrived, and one of the Khitan generals dismounted.
"You're still alive!"
Yelu Xiezhen gave Yelu Xiu a thick hug.
The two remaining commanders of the Liao Kingdom joined forces again at this time.
"Since you are here, then Yanyan must be here too."
Xiao Siwen found out that Yelu Xiezhen also participated in this war, and Xiao Chuo should also come to Langjuxu Mountain.
"Father."
A woman dismounts and meets her father.
"Yanyan, you are..."
Xiao Siwen found that his daughter had changed into the armor of a general of the Han Empire.
"There is no way out. If our Khitan tribe wants to survive, we must make some sacrifices, and this sacrifice is the price we pay in exchange for the survival of the tribe."
Xiao Chuo's eyes were firm.
The population of the Khitan tribe has been defeated many times, and there is not one out of ten, or it has been exiled to other tribes and become slaves.
In order to keep the last members of the Khitan tribe, as Xiao Chuo said, a certain price must be paid, and this price may even be Xiao Chuo himself.
"What do you mean..." The acquaintance is more like the father, Xiao Siwen quickly understood Xiao Chuo's meaning, "You can act according to yourself, but you don't have to have any psychological burden, the Khitan tribe will be gone without it."
Xiao Siwen has experienced so many major events in a short period of time. He has witnessed the collapse of the Mongol Empire, the Liao Kingdom, and the Xiongnu successively. He no longer cares about the existence of the Khitan tribe.
"Father, do you want to see His Royal Highness King Xia?"
Xiao Chuo knows that Xiao Siwen is currently in the Khitan tribe and is one of the few surviving Khitan ministers, and he can also gain a foothold.
"It's time to see him, or I won't be at ease giving my daughter to him."
Xiao Siwen has no objection to the special marriage, which may be a good thing for the Xiao family.
Xiao Siwen followed Brother Yelu Xiu to see Chutian.
Chu Tian was leading his troops to clean up the battlefield. There were innumerable Xiongnu cavalry and Xianbei cavalry captured, and many of them were herdsmen who had been forced into the army by Modun Chanyu.
"This is a special item seized from the guards of Morton. I don't know what it is."
Chutian's cavalry found a strange item while sweeping the battlefield.
This is a gold-forged Hun statue only the size of a palm.
Chu Tian grabbed the golden man and checked its properties.
[Name]: ? ? ? ?
【Civilization】: Xiongnu
【Grade】: ? ?
【Effect】: ? ? ?
"Huh?"
This is the first time that Chutian has obtained items that cannot be viewed at all.
"Could it be that this kind of item still needs identification skills? Or, it's just an ordinary piece of gold, without any special features?"
If it is just an ordinary golden statue, although it is very valuable to ordinary people, for Chutian, who has an army of millions, a piece of gold is a drop in the bucket, and its value is not high.
Chutian's annual military pay is calculated on the basis of tens of millions of silver.
Joan of Arc came over and blinked curiously: "My lord, what is this?"
"Should be a treasure."
Chu Tian carefully weighed the golden statue. He did not believe that the important props that Mo Dun brought with him was just an ordinary golden statue.
When Sun Bin arrived at the battlefield, he heard that Chutian had obtained a special golden figurine, so he immediately came to check, and finally said slowly: "This is the golden figurine used by the Xiongnu to sacrifice to the sky, it can bless the prairie with good weather and water plants in the coming year. Plump."
"It turned out to be a golden man."
Chutian has heard of this special prop. In fact, this prop is not completely fictitious, but has a historical origin.
Dragon City is a sacred place for the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu sacrificed to the sky locally, and the golden man was the core tool when the Huns sacrificed to the sky.
When Huo Qubing defeated the Huns, he once seized the sacred relics of the Huns.
"Does the military advisor have the ability to identify this golden man?"
When Chu Tian saw Sun Bin, he immediately recognized that it was a golden man from the Xiongnu. He believed that Sun Bin had the skills to identify special items.
"Of course."
Sun Bin waved his robe, and Chu Tian could already see the effect of a special item called "Sacrificing the Golden Man to the Heaven".
[Name]: Golden Man
【Civilization】: Xiongnu
[Grade Rank]: Royal-level special props
[Effect]: 1. The person who holds the props will hold the ceremony of worshiping the sky in Longcheng every year, and can obtain the effect of the official position of "Da Chanyu" for one year; 2. The results of the ceremony of worshiping the sky are divided into three states : Great auspiciousness, small auspiciousness, natural disasters, for a period of one year.
Auspicious status (20% probability), the growth conditions of grassland aquatic plants are improved by +25%, the probability of snow disaster and plague is -25%, the probability of excellent war horses is +5%, and the popular sentiment of grassland tribes +20.
Xiaoji state (probability 60%), the growth conditions of grassland aquatic plants are improved by +15%, the probability of snow disaster and plague is -15%, the probability of excellent war horses is +2%, and the popular sentiment of grassland tribes +10.
Natural disaster status (probability 20%), the growth conditions of grassland aquatic plants are improved by -15%, the probability of snow disaster and plague occurrence is +15%, the death rate of war horses, cattle and sheep is +2%, and the popular sentiment of grassland tribes is -10.
"Da Chanyu" effect - a special official position, the title of the Xiongnu monarch, but it does not have to be held by the Huns, it is actually the emperor of the grasslands.
During the period of being a big orderer, the people's hearts of various tribes in the grasslands +15, the loyalty of the grassland army +15%, the damage of horseback and shooting +5%, the marching speed +3%, the economic, political and military development speed of the grasslands +5% .
"No wonder Mao Dun can command the various tribes on the grassland. The Huns and Xianbei cavalry are quite fierce in battle, and they also have a certain degree of loyalty. It was easy to surrender after Mao Dun died. It turned out to be related to his identity as Da Chanyu. If I have the effect of Da Chanyu, and the cavalry of the grasslands such as the Cowardly Xue Army and the Mongolian Cavalry have slightly improved their abilities..."
When Chutian saw the ceremony of sacrificing the sky, he could also obtain the official title of "Da Chanyu" that came with Mordun.
At present, the official positions of Chutian are General and Shepherd of Yanzhou.
At that time, Chutian would be the general of the Han Empire, the shepherd of Yanzhou, and the chief Shanyu.
Dadan is the official position of the nomadic civilization, and holding this official position is the basis for ruling the prairie.
From this point of view, this special item "Sacrificing the Golden Man to Heaven" seems to be just a piece of gold, but its practical value is quite amazing, and it is the most valuable sacred object of the Xiongnu civilization.
There is a 20% chance that the Ceremony will fail.
However, the probability of success is 80%, which is enough.
The golden man can only guarantee that the prairie will have good weather for four-fifths of the time.
"After returning to Longcheng, I will immediately arrange the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens. I want to become a big danyu and stabilize the people's hearts of the various tribes in the grasslands."
When Chutian got the golden man, the first thing he thought of was to take the throne and become a danyu, so that he could gain the legitimacy of ruling the grasslands.
Modun's position in the grasslands is equivalent to Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains. The two people can have an equal dialogue.
The position of Da Chanyu is on the same level as the emperor of the Han Empire.
Therefore, many kingdoms established by nomadic civilizations have to call themselves Dadanyu to win people's hearts.
Of course, in the eyes of the Huns or other nomadic tribes, this is the status of Da Chanyu.
In the eyes of the princes of the Han Empire, the position of the Han emperor was still higher than that of the Dan.
"Qin Liangyu made the greatest contribution in this battle..."
Chu Tian counted the military exploits of each of the generals. Among them, Qin Liangyu ranked first for killing Maodun Shanyu, beheading tens of thousands of northern Xiongnu cavalry, and capturing tens of thousands of southern Xiongnu cavalry.
In particular, the credit for capturing the Southern Xiongnu cavalry was the military exploit that Yufu Luo gave to Qin Liangyu.
For Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan, Chu Tian couldn't laugh or cry. The two Xiongnu leaders were two stubborn heads, and they didn't have the ruthlessness of Mao Dun and Shan Yuning.
Modun was indeed fierce, and his cavalry also caused a lot of losses to Chutian.
As the descendants of Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan, after they became attached to the Han Empire, they did not have much nostalgia for the grasslands.
"According to what was said before the war, if you kill the Modun, you will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver."
Chutian fulfilled his promise and ordered 10,000 taels of silver to be given to Qin Liangyu as a guest general.
Modun's head is indeed worth 10,000 taels of silver.
Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci and others all had a chance, but if Modun didn't break out in their direction, they could only stare blankly.
"Will ten thousand taels of silver be too much..."
Qin Liangyu only came to the north occasionally. Because there were no princes in the southern barbarian region willing to intervene, he had nothing to do. As a result, he got 10,000 taels of silver in a trip to the north.
"Take it as my support for the Nanman region."
Chutian originally thought that the 10,000 taels of silver would be obtained by his subordinates, so Chutian was very generous at the beginning, so he could not break his promise now.
The higher the status, the more attention paid to the promise, otherwise it will lose people's hearts greatly.
The 10,000 taels were used by Chutian to win over the generals in the southern barbarian region, which was a little bit of money back.
Qin Liangyu will bring Fu Luo and Hu Chuquan: "These two people, please deal with His Royal Highness King Xia."
Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan were pale and sweaty as they knelt in front of Chu Tian: "Modun kidnapped us to rebel, we can't refuse..."
"In the name of Da Shanyu, I will abolish the identity of the Southern Xiongnu's Shanyu. From now on, the nobles of the Southern Xiongnu tribes must be appointed by the Xia Wangfu."
Chu Tian was actually dissatisfied with the affair between Fu Luo and Hu Chuquan.
In fact, this is a historical problem left by the Han Empire's acceptance of the South Huns after the Hun Empire was split into the South Huns and the North Huns.
The Han Empire's weak control over the Southern Xiongnu left hidden dangers for the Five Husbands.
At present, the Southern Huns still have their own hierarchical system. Yufuluo is the Shanyu of the Southern Xiongnu. The Han Empire can intervene ~IndoMTL.com~ on the issue of the successor of the Southern Xiongnu's Shanyu. Some Xiongnu nobles were still decided internally by the Southern Xiongnu.
This time, with the betrayal of the Southern Xiongnu, Chutian gained more political capital and the right to appoint and remove the middle and high-level leaders of the Southern Xiongnu.
"The royal court of the Southern Xiongnu was abolished, and the Southern Xiongnu was divided into fifteen banners, which were dispersed inhabited. Each banner set up a town, and every five banners set up a county. Without permission, unauthorized migration is prohibited. Officials collect taxes, keep horses, recruit soldiers, and officials are dispatched by the Xia Wangfu, accounting for at least 70%.”
Chutian forcibly disbanded the Southern Xiongnu royal court, and divided the Southern Xiongnu into three counties and fifteen banners, which were scattered all over the grassland to fill the population.
The farming population is not very willing to live on the grassland, and the environmental carrying capacity of the grassland is relatively weak. If it is cultivated at will, the soil fertility of the grassland will be quickly lost.
Therefore, the grasslands are still mainly developed for animal husbandry. No one is more suitable for grazing than nomadic tribes.
The biggest threat to the nomadic tribes is their erratic whereabouts. Chutian let the Huns live and supervise, and develop animal husbandry and horse administration on the grasslands.
In the future, Chutian will need a lot of war horses for the westward expedition.
The Mongolians marched westward, with one man and many horses, and Chutian had to prepare for the future.
If an army of 500,000 people marched westward, with an average of four horses per person, then two million war horses would be required.
Every year, war horses die due to diseases, wars, and cold winters, and at least hundreds of thousands of war horses are produced every year to make up for the losses.
The Mongolians and the Huns would raise horses. They have the living skills of raising horses, and the cost is very low. There is no need to specially dispatch farmers from inside the customs to raise horses outside the customs.
Even if this generation doesn't work, be well prepared for the next expedition.
Chutian has already made his own abacus.
