My younger brother Lü Fengxian
Chapter 25: Kill the Horse Oath!
Chapter 25: Kill the Horse Oath!
"So that's how it is!" Lu Yi's heart moved when he heard this, and the possibility of implementing his plan increased by 10%.
Upon hearing this, Hatter sat there awkwardly, after all, he was also a member of the Huns.
However, he was the only Hun present, and he was also the youngest, so he had no say at all.
Lu Yi was keenly aware of Hatler's embarrassment and took the initiative to toast him, saying, "Lu Yi is new here and doesn't know much about the grassland. I wonder if Young Chief Hatler can explain it to me."
"Since your benefactor has asked me to do so, Hatter is happy to explain!" Hatter looked at Lu Yi with gratitude, then immediately stood up and explained the details of the grassland to Lu Yi and others.
It was impossible for Lu Yi, a merchant from the frontier regions, to carry valuable goods across the border without any preparation. However, as a Han Chinese living in Bingzhou, his understanding of the grasslands outside the frontier regions could not compare with Hatter's.
Soon, Hatter knew the detailed situation of the Hu people on the grassland.
Lu Yi listened and took notes in his mind.
Some questions are raised from time to time.
The focus was on understanding the military situation of the Zade tribe and the personal character of the old patriarch of the Zade tribe.
"The Zade tribe should have been able to gather 800 soldiers, but Zador did not know how powerful his benefactor was and led his people to attack. Not only did 400 of his men suffer heavy casualties, but he himself died at the hands of his benefactor. After this battle, I'm afraid there are less than 600 soldiers left in his tribe.
"The Zade tribe will also decline from a medium-sized tribe to a small tribe like my Hunye tribe!"
Speaking of Zador, Hartle gritted his teeth in hatred, his tone full of the satisfaction of revenge.
However, his happiness only lasted for a short time before it was replaced by worry.
"However, even so, they are still the most powerful force on this grassland. I'm sure our tribe will be retaliated by the Zade tribe next."
"That may not be the case!" Lu Yi interrupted Hartel and put forward a different opinion.
"Just now, Hater, you said that the old chieftain of the Zade tribe, Ang Riduo, believed in high-handed rule. He was not stingy in spreading his brutality in the tribe and would execute the herdsmen in the tribe at any time. Everyone in the Zade tribe feared him like a tiger."
"Now that his only son, Zador, is dead, I think the remnants of Zador's tribe will not dare to return to the Zhad tribe to report this news to Ang Riduo!"
"Therefore, there should only be 400 old and weak people left in the Zhade tribe at this moment!"
Lu Yi looked at everyone with a burning gaze.
"I have an immature plan. Please listen carefully!"
"Brother Lu Yi, what are your plans?" Huang Yi asked curiously.
"If my benefactor needs any service from my Hunye tribe, please feel free to ask!" Hatter said hurriedly, wanting to repay Lu Yi.
"The Zhade tribe is tyrannical and unjust. Not only do they often rob Han merchant caravans and invade Han territory, they are even intolerant of their fellow Xiongnu people. Their numerous crimes will surely bring punishment from heaven!"
"Now we have six hundred cavalrymen in our combined forces. The enemy is in the open and we are in the dark. We are strong enough to fight against the Zade tribe on behalf of God."
"I think we should quickly prepare our troops and march out immediately. What do you two think?"
Lu Yi looked around at everyone, an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.
"Attack the Zade tribe?" Huang Yi and Hatler, two enemies on weekdays, looked at each other in tacit understanding after hearing this, and saw deep surprise in each other's eyes. However, in addition to being surprised, the two clearly saw the ambition in each other's heart outlined by Lu Yi's words.
"Damn it, let's drink it!" Huang Yi was the first to slap the ground, knocking the wine glasses and bowls in front of him to the ground, and suddenly stood up from the ground: "This Zhade tribe has repeatedly harassed my Han territory, plundered my people and killed my soldiers. This general and that old man Ang Riduo have a deep hatred for our country. If I don't avenge this, I will be eating the emperor's salary in vain!"
"The Zade tribe, relying on its power, not only occupied the pastures and water sources in the fertile areas, but also often extorted and humiliated our tribe. Today, the young chief of the Zade tribe, Zador, attempted to kill me and annex my Hunye tribe. There is a long-lasting hatred between our tribe and the Zade tribe. When Hatler returns to the tribe to report to his father, he will definitely support Lord Lu Yi's plan!" After Huang Yi expressed his opinion, Hatler also stood up excitedly and bowed to Lu Yi, saying: "My Hunye tribe is also willing to be commanded by Lord Lu Yi!"
"You two said it well!" Hearing this, Lü Bu could not hold back his excitement and slammed the table. "My Lü caravan has never provoked the Zhade tribe, but Zador wanted to rob the caravan that my elder brother had worked so hard to build. This is a personal grudge! I, Lü Bu, will always take revenge! I am willing to be the vanguard of the army!"
"Good!" Seeing that the plan was going so smoothly, Lu Yi was overjoyed and said, "With all the national hatred, family hatred, and personal grudges gathered together, we should kill horses and swear an oath to attack the Zhade tribe tonight!"
"Good!" Huang Yi clapped his hands and laughed.
"Of course!" Hartler's face flushed with excitement.
"Take a vow!" Lu Yi ordered, and Gao Shun wrote a vow containing the results of everyone's discussion with his pen as fast as a dragon.
Lu Yi and Huang Yi wrote their names on the oath one by one. Because the Huns had no written language, Hattere bit his thumb and pressed his fingerprint at the end of the oath.
"Bring the horse here!" Lu Yi shouted loudly, and Cheng Lian responded by bringing over Zador's extraordinary mount.
This horse is jet black with a handsome and slender body. It is a good horse picked out of a hundred miles away. If it were sold to the Han area, it would be worth one hundred thousand coins!
However, this horse has great symbolic significance because it is Zador's mount, but it has to sacrifice its innocent life for its deceased master.
"Kill the horse!" Lu Yi nodded to Lu Bu, who immediately shouted and cut off the horse's head with a single blow of his sword. The poor horse died instantly, fell to the ground, kicked its legs a few times, and then became motionless.
At this point, a set of oaths with the characteristics of the times was solemnly established.
Lu Yi, Huang Yi and Hartler, three people with very different identities, represented their subordinates and the forces behind them and briefly formed a small alliance.
"Although we have sworn an alliance, we should first elect a leader to command the troops."
"I would like to offer my personal recommendation to serve as the leader of the alliance and do my best to help the alliance. What do you think?"
Lu Yi looked at Hartler and Huang Yi, his eyes full of confidence.
The position of alliance leader is not only an honor, but also has enormous power. Not only can one command the various armies, but one also has a huge say in the distribution of spoils after the war. Therefore, Lu Yi naturally does not want to delegate the task to others.
"Yes!" Huang Yi thought for a moment and nodded in approval of Lu Yi's self-recommendation.
He now has only one hundred Han cavalry under his command. Although there are still some troops at the pass, they are needed to guard the pass and cannot move lightly. Therefore, the position of alliance leader will not be his no matter what.
"That's right!" Hartler was grateful to Lu Yi for saving his life. If he didn't repay him, he would lose his appetite. Therefore, he immediately agreed with Lu Yi's self-recommendation.
The first round of recommendations will be posted the day after tomorrow. Thank you all for your support.
If possible, please give this book a free subscription next Tuesday, thank you.
