Inside the palace.
"My lord, the Japanese on Ezo Island have also been basically wiped out." The Great Chanyu of the Xiongnu knelt there respectfully.
"When the Great Chanyu rewards those who have rendered meritorious service, what do you need?"
The Great Chanyu of the Xiongnu shook his head: "In this war of annihilation, our lord, we did not play a significant role. It is our honor to serve our lord so diligently."
We have no need for any rewards or honors.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tian smiled slightly: "Rewarding merit and punishing demerit are my bottom lines."
"Someone come and offer me a seat."
Soon, several eunuchs brought over a few chairs and placed them in front of them.
The Xiongnu Chanyu and Princess Hanxiang stood there, not daring to sit down.
"Sit down, everyone. This is an order," Jiang Tian said coldly. These Xiongnu people are no longer needed.
However, there's no need to kill them all.
Jiang Tian, who is well-versed in history, knows that the Xiongnu people in history were divided into two groups.
One wave of people surrendered to the Han Dynasty and have been completely assimilated.
Another film, heading west, became the Scourge of God, striking European countries until they cried out in despair.
The earliest name for the Scourge of God was not for the Mongol cavalry, but for the Huns led by Attila.
The Left Wise King, the Right Wise King, the Left Guli King, the Right Guli King, the Great Chanyu of the Xiongnu, and Princess Hanxiang then sat down.
“I know that gold and silver are not very useful on your grasslands. What you need are iron tools, salt and grain.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"When you head west to the Great Wall, I will arrange for people to prepare hundreds of thousands of ironware items for you."
In addition, I will give you another 1 million catties of salt.
500,000 fine horses and cattle.
"These are all as rewards for your contribution to the war that destroyed Japan."
Upon hearing this, the Xiongnu Chanyu and his men quickly knelt down.
The Great Chanyu of the Xiongnu said, “Our lord has treated us so kindly that we are filled with trepidation.”
"That's all you deserve."
"If you need grain in the future, you can use the cattle and sheep you have to trade with people inside the pass."
"clear……"
These Xiongnu people witnessed the Ferghana horses ridden by Jiang Tian's cavalry.
These Akhal-Teke horses were of excellent breed, and even the Xiongnu people, who were used to seeing fine horses, were very envious of them.
"I will provide you with over 70,000 sets of high-quality armor and over 70,000 high-quality bows and arrows."
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this.
The armor worn by these Xiongnu cavalrymen was all leather.
The armor that Jiang Tian exchanged in the system was all Bright Light Armor. If the Xiongnu could get a pair of Bright Light Armor, they would be laughing in their dreams.
Jiang Tian snapped his fingers, and several eunuchs brought over a suit of bright armor and a super-powerful recurve composite bow.
“Take a look at these armors and bows and arrows. I will provide each of you Xiongnu cavalrymen with a set.”
"Of course, the armor of your Xiongnu Great Chanyu, Princess Hanxiang, the Left and Right Wise Kings, and the Left and Right Guli Kings is specially made; your armor and bows are all unique."
Everyone stood up, and they all gathered around.
They examined the armor and the super recurve compound bow bit by bit.
The Mingguang Kai has a unique design; wearing it is practically like wearing a heavy tank.
This armor was far superior to the leather armor that the Xiongnu people usually wore.
In ancient times, a piece of armor was quite expensive.
Having armor is definitely something a cavalryman can be proud of.
If a country can equip itself with 70,000 sets of Mingguang armor, these 70,000 troops will be able to sweep across the world wherever they go.
The Xiongnu Chanyu and his companions touched the gleaming armor, giving it a thumbs-up and praising it highly.
"With this armor, we will never again tolerate invasions from other countries on the grasslands."
"With this armor, our Xiongnu will surely be able to sweep across the grasslands. What are the 16 kingdoms of the grasslands? As long as our lord gives the order, we will annihilate all 16 kingdoms of the grasslands."
"If every soldier could wear this kind of armor, they would be overjoyed."
Princess Hanxiang held that incredibly powerful recurve composite bow.
This compound bow has several pulleys on each side, and the little girl tried to pull it.
"My lord, what is the range of this recurve composite bow?" The little girl pulled the heavy recurve composite bow with ease.
"The maximum range can reach more than 500 paces."
Everyone was stunned when Jiang Tian said that.
500 steps, which is 750 meters.
The ability to shoot an arrow more than 750 meters away is something that even the most skilled archers of the Xiongnu could hardly accomplish.
With this recurve composite bow, even an ordinary, weak woman can shoot down an eagle soaring in the sky.
"With a few more modifications, it's not impossible for this bow to shoot more than 1,000 paces."
Everyone present stared wide-eyed upon hearing this.
"This batch of armor and bows will be delivered tomorrow, so your men can prepare."
"Yes..." The crowd knelt down respectfully once again.
"Xiongnu Chanyu, I hope you can conquer a vast territory."
After Jiang Tian finished speaking, he led everyone straight to the study at the back.
A map hangs on the wall of the study.
This map is a world map.
The world in which the Great Xia Dynasty existed was almost identical to the world of the 21st century, except that its territory was much larger—more than ten times larger.
The group looked at the map, but they didn't take it seriously; they had no idea what it was.
"This is a map of the world," Jiang Tian said, pointing to the red and green markings on the wall.
No one seemed to have any sense of the map.
It wasn't because they had no interest in the land, but because these people were almost illiterate.
Almost no one can understand maps.
“Let’s take a look at where we Xiongnu are located,” Jiang Tian pointed to the long, narrow map of Japan that looked like a caterpillar. “We have been in Japan for more than half a year. This is the entire location of Japan.”
Compared to the entire world map, Japan's location and size are almost negligible.
"My lord, do you mean it took us more than half a year to conquer this place that's like a caterpillar?"
Jiang Tian nodded.
Everyone believed Jiang Tian's words without a doubt.
Everyone present was shocked.
"We fought for more than half a year, traveled thousands of miles, and went through so much trouble, and only then did we finally capture such a big place?"
"This is simply incredible."
"My lord, where is the Great Xia Dynasty?" Princess Hanxiang asked quickly.
Jiang Tian pointed to a vast expanse of blue: "This whole area is just the ocean. Do you remember how long it took to get here by boat?"
Jiang Tian pointed to the location from Penglai County to Shikoku Island in Japan.
