Chapter 273 I am on Yinshan Mountain
This turned out to be a declaration of war.
The King of Vegetarian!
The popularity of this name on the grassland is beyond the imagination of the people in the Central Plains. Even if you don’t go to the State of Chu, you know that the people of Chu believe in Taiyi. The tribes on the grassland all know that Su Wang is the ancestor god of the people in the Central Plains, just like the gods in their legends.
Not to mention that many people on the grassland today are from the Central Plains. Maodun is very clear about this. He looks like a Central Plains person and must have Central Plains blood in him, but he doesn't say it just for the sake of unifying the grassland.
Because on the grassland, only those who migrated from the Central Plains have culture and technology, which can strengthen the tribe and easily gain a relatively high status.
Maodun was naturally angry about Luoling's declaration of war, because Luoling directly mentioned the Huns at the beginning, which was equivalent to pointing at Maodun's nose and calling him a dog.
There were many tribes on the grassland that called themselves Xia people, but about one-third of them called themselves Xia people, such as Maodun, who looked similar to the people in the Central Plains. There were also those who called themselves Kun. There were hundreds of them in total. After being unified by Maodun, they were all called Xia people or Xiong people. The pronunciation of Xia and Xiong is similar.
As Maodun read the letter, his anger disappeared. He passed the letter to his attendants and laughed loudly, "I once heard someone from the Central Plains say this.
The Luo family is the descendant of the Su King of the Central Plains. It has been passed down from the Bang Zhou era for a thousand years. The head of the Luo family can communicate with the heavens and possesses unfathomable power.
I thought only idiots would believe it, but I never expected that the head of the Luo family himself believed it and came to the grassland alone.
Was he going to perform a trick of communicating with God for us in person, just as he said in his letter, and send down snow and wind to punish us?
This is probably a joke. I want to arrest him.
He is a noble of the Han Dynasty and the head of the Luo family. I heard that he has a lot of books at home, so he must be very knowledgeable. Although he is a little naive and stupid, he is still courageous. He is a perfect son-in-law for me. "
After saying that, he burst into laughter. He didn't notice how ugly the faces of those who escaped from the Han area became. The name Luo Ling was divine in the Central Plains.
No matter whether it was Xiang Yu or Liu Bang, both of them were true heroes, but they couldn't help feeling uneasy when facing Luo Ling, so they all gave Luo Ling countless rewards without any prior agreement, and then let Luo Ling sit quietly in Zhaocheng and not come out.
"Great Son of Heaven, Supreme Chanyu, please allow me to tell you about the Mausoleum of Duke Zhao."
Finally, someone couldn't help but speak out. After all, he didn't want to follow Maodun to find Luo Ling and die. "Zhao Gong is the descendant of Su Wang and the agent of God. He has the supreme power to call the wind and rain and control the wind and snow. This is not something we can resist."
Maodun laughed again upon hearing this. "Can the gods of the Central Plains still control the grasslands? I am the descendant of heaven, the sun and the moon surround me, I am the greatest Chanyu, even the emperor south of the Great Wall is not as noble as me, how can I still worry about a mere nobleman?
I'm afraid any king in my Khan's tent is equivalent to the so-called Zhao Gong."
The Xiongnu kings flattered him, saying, "You are the Great Khan born by heaven and earth, appointed by the sun and the moon. You are the most noble man in the world. We will follow you and establish the great country of Daxia. All the people who draw bows will submit to you."
The bad luck of the small defeat just now was swept away, and Maodun immediately said in high spirits: "Let's go to Yinshan to see who this Luo family's patriarch is. How dare such a shameless person run to the grassland and humiliate the supreme Chanyu like this."
After saying this, he completely ignored the people of Zhu Xia who looked as pale as death, and immediately gave the order to lead the army to Yinshan.
…
After the Huns withdrew, Han Xin certainly would not let his guard down. These people who were good at drawing bows came and went like the wind. If they came back to attack while his formation was dispersed, he would die without knowing how he died.
"The Huns' army is heading towards Yinshan Mountain?"
Han Xin looked at the news with some surprise, and then he saw Luo Cai walk in, saying with a smile on his face: "My dear, don't worry, the Huns went to Yinshan because my elder brother went to the grassland alone some time ago and stayed there."
Han Xin stood up and asked, "Brother, you went into the grassland alone? Isn't that extremely dangerous? Cai Niang, I will send troops to rescue you immediately."
Luo Cai waved his hand and chuckled, "Don't worry, my dear, my elder brother is a genius, are you just talking?
One man can be as powerful as a million soldiers. This is not an exaggeration. Cai originally thought that the elder brother would not take action, but he actually went to the grassland. The Hu people are in trouble. "
Han Xin was shocked and his scalp tingled. He had some vague guesses. After all, Luo Ling was known for his predictability and success, and for his excessive supernatural power, which had never been seen in any other head of the Luo family before.
Many ancient records are now considered to be fabricated by later generations. After all, those events happened hundreds of years ago, and it is hard to believe them without seeing them with one's own eyes.
…
Chang'an City.
Luo Yi also received Luo Ling's letter, so he hurriedly told Liu Bang. Liu Bang asked curiously, "Zi Yu, what did Zhao Gong go to the grassland for?"
Luo Yi said solemnly: "Your Majesty, my elder brother went to the grassland on the orders of the Su King to give the Chinese people and the Han Dynasty a chance to recuperate. You see, the Xiongnu will encounter a great disaster, and then we can focus on governing the country."
Liu Bang's eyelids were twitching. He had roughly guessed what Luo Ling was going to do, but he was still skeptical. Could it be that the spirit of King Su was really in heaven?
Could it be that Zhaogongling was really able to call the wind and rain, rather than relying on Luo's understanding of celestial phenomena?
From the Su Wang Calendar, we can know that Luo was well versed in astronomical phenomena and could even calculate the time of rain and snow. Many people believe that the events recorded in history books were all calculated by Luo.
So he asked tentatively: "Zi Yu, will the Xiongnu be destroyed because of this?"
If the Huns were destroyed directly, he would never try to attack the Luo family again, which would be really terrible.
Luo Yi shook his head and said, "Definitely not.
Your Majesty, there is nothing in this world that can be obtained without paying. The man is a sapling that is growing vigorously, not a vine that can only grow around a big tree.
The King of Su may relieve our stress like he does now, but he will never solve all problems and let us sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor.
What Su Wang has always believed is that we have to rely on ourselves to obtain everything in this world. This is the principle of a gentleman's constant self-improvement.
If everything can be obtained simply by praying to the Su Wang, then are humans still humans, or are they appendages of the Su Wang?
If one day the King is gone and no longer responds to the call of his people, will we just do nothing?"
Liu Bang was moved when he heard this and said, "The King of Su is truly worthy of being the ancestor god. He not only has the power to protect future generations, but also has such wonderful thoughts to teach us. We are so lucky.
When Duke Zhao returns from the grassland, I will confer upon him a divine title as the Son of Heaven, ranking him among the sun, moon, stars, mountains, and rivers, and offer sacrifices to him every year."
The highest deities worshipped by the emperor are naturally the heaven and ancestor gods, and below them are the sun, moon, stars, mountains, and rivers. This is already quite extraordinary.
…
Yinshan Mountains.
Luo Ling looked at the vast plain south of the Yin Mountains. There was the Hetao, the most fertile land for the Xiongnu, bar none. He murmured softly, "If we seize the Hetao and drive the Xiongnu north of the Yin Mountains, the Central Plains will be stable."
Then he felt the ground beneath his feet tremble slightly, and in the distance there was a lot of dust and smoke, that was thousands of horses galloping. Luo Ling smiled slightly and said, "Grandfather Qiao Yun, the Xiongnu Chanyu is here."
Qiao Yun raised the whip in his hand, not afraid at all, but rather happy that he was already so old, but could still experience such an exciting scene. "If I were young, I could kill him with one arrow for the master of the family, just like killing Bai Qi."
The Huns rushed to a nearby place, and Maodun saw Luo Ling at a glance. Even at such a long distance, he could still see him clearly. He was so conspicuous, just like a beam of light shining on Luo Ling in the dark night.
Maodun led his army forward and shouted from a distance, "Are you the Han noble who brought the letter? Come down and pay your respects quickly. I will spare your life. Or do you want to punish the entire grassland by sending snow and wind as you said in your letter? Unfortunately, this is a grassland and we have our own supreme gods, hahahaha."
Maodun's voice echoed in the mountains as it was passed on by the soldiers, and the Xiongnu nobles laughed loudly. Luo Ling did not expect that Maodun would say it directly without him having to say anything.
So he shouted loudly: "Modun, the whole grassland will pay the price for your arrogance today. No one, not even a god, can insult the Supreme Su King, not even the gods of the grassland."
Luo Ling would not kill any of the soldiers present, because there was really no need to do so. Today's incident would become a seed, deeply buried in the hearts of these soldiers and nobles, and then spread to the hearts of countless Huns through them.
God of the four seasons!
Luo Ling took out this powerful artifact, which is the most powerful artifact that has ever appeared in the family.
These artifacts were marked as unique, and each one was extremely powerful. The reason why the God of Four Seasons was at the Profound Level instead of the Earth Level was because it consumed too much luck points.
If we ignore this point, the God of the Four Seasons is simply a small astronomical observatory, and almost has the ability to destroy a small agricultural country.
The only drawback is that it consumes too much of the family's wealth. The Huns' land is five thousand miles from east to west. It is simply a dream to want to use this artifact in such a large territory.
If the Xiongnu's main resources were not concentrated in the not-so-large area of Hetao, Luo Ling would never have thought of coming to the grassland to use this artifact.
————
Thanks to Luo's good habit of writing history, the records about Zhaogong's journey to the grassland are very clear, and we can even clearly see Zhaogong's route.
We have no idea how he managed to cross thousands of miles of vast grassland with only a groom and a carriage, and without concealing his identity, escape unscathed from the Huns' butcher knives and the huge natural disasters of the time.
The contents of history books are naturally unreliable. This may be an eternal mystery that will never be solved. - "One Hundred Unsolved Mysteries in Chinese History"
