Although some men would rather leave their homes and go to South Vietnam to do hard labor and become slaves than follow Chi Nu, who pushed his own tribe to a dead end, this was only a small part after all.
Most people have lived on the grassland all their lives and are unwilling to leave their homes. However, they are forced to follow the Red Slaves and become accomplices of the tiger in order to have food to eat for themselves and their families and children.
Summer is the season for men to work and wait for the harvest, but after tasting the sweetness of annexing the Yun tribe, Chi Nu actually set his sights on the Northern Wei court.
The original words of Chi Nu Batian, the chief of the Chi Nu tribe, were: I have been dreaming of gods recently. He said that I am the son of gods who have come down to earth. I will lead my people to prosperous towns and let them live in warm houses. From now on, they will no longer suffer from the pain of displacement, no longer live in drafty tents, and no longer worry about having no harvest in winter.
My people, now that we are strong enough, why should we still live in this desolate grassland? Don't you want to live in a big house when you are tired and eat in a big restaurant when you are hungry?
Today, I, Chi Nu Ba Tian, will lead your army southward, occupy the territory of Northern Wei, break through the city of Northern Wei, and confront Northern Wei!
Of course, everyone except his own people scoffed at what Chief Chinu said.
The power of the Northern Wei Dynasty has become an unsurpassed myth. How can you, a patriarch of a grassland tribe, confront the Northern Wei royal family?
Although you already have 1.5 million troops, but...how many people are willing to join in?
On the other hand, the imperial court has 3 million soldiers surrendering. What can you use to fight them? This is not like taking off your pants to compare the size of that place. How can you just fight if the military morale is not stable?
Several tribes that had been oppressed and had nowhere else to go immediately stood up in opposition, which resulted in even more brutal suppression and even genocide.
Finally, everyone got scared.
If he fought, perhaps there would still be a glimmer of hope for his tribe and family. If he didn't fight, he would be killed by the red slaves now.
In order to resist, the chief of a tribe sent someone to secretly report the news to the Northern Wei court. However, the chief of the Chi Nu tribe had already prepared for this. After capturing the reporter, he wiped out the entire tribe. More than a thousand people in the tribe, regardless of gender, age or status, were all cut open and cooked into human flesh soup for the soldiers to eat.
Under this brutal pressure, opposition finally died down, and Chi Nu proclaimed himself emperor, establishing the Northern Chi Kingdom. With his 1.5 million-strong army ready to go, at the command of a single cavalry cavalryman, they would ride their steppe horses into battle against the Northern Wei!
Dicheng is the last small town north of the Northern Wei Dynasty. After leaving Dicheng, there is a vast grassland.
Although Dicheng is small, it is home to many businesspeople. Grassland resources are scarce, and many Northern Wei merchants love to trade their goods for mineral resources on the grasslands.
However, given that the people of the grasslands were poor and did not play by the rules, not only did the people of other countries, but even the people of Northern Wei were reluctant to have much dealings with them. Especially in the past two years, the people of the grasslands had been like hungry wolves, sometimes even starting to rob them.
Although this trend has never expanded under the suppression of the imperial court, most people doing business here are on guard. Therefore, all the businesses in Dicheng are small businesses, and many people still dare not do big things.
