Nine hundred and seventy-third section wolf Juxu seal (2)
From Prayuyu Mountain, heading north.
It completely entered the hinterland and core of the Huns.
When the weather is good, as long as you climb up the mountains, you can even see the winding Yuwu River Valley looming among the mountains in the distance.
Now, it is the fourth day after the end of the Battle of Hequ.
The Han army led by Zhang Yue has infinitely approached the hinterland of the Kent Mountain Range, the most important place for the Huns to worship the sky, Guyan Mountain and Langjuxu Mountain.
Mount Kent is not a mountain.
It is a mountain range like Daxinganling and Yanshan Mountains.
It cuts the central and eastern parts of the Mongolian Plateau from southwest to northeast.
The southwest direction is the Yuwushui River Basin, the economic lifeline of the Huns.
There are the most fertile pastures controlled by the Huns, the largest farming area and the strongest handicraft gathering center Zhao Xincheng.
On the western foothills, it is the most important holy mountain of the Huns, Langjuxu Mountain and Guyan Mountain where its Longcheng is located.
"So I've been making a mistake..." Standing on a mountain and looking into the distance, Zhang Yue smiled: "This wolf lives in Xu Mountain, not the wolf lives in Xu Mountain..."
In the past, Zhang Yue always mistakenly believed that the Langjuxu Mountain that Huo Qubing climbed was the Buerhan Mountain in later generations.
But now, he finally knew that he was wrong!
The Buerhan Mountain in later generations was able to become a holy mountain because of Genghis Khan!
The Huns were not nomadic peoples of the Donghu clan.
They are nomads who rose in Hetao!
Their enemy was Donghu, the ancestor of Genghis Khan.
For the Mongolians, there is a good reason to choose Buerhan Mountain as the holy mountain!
Temujin, who rose in the eastern part of the plateau, then conquered the Krei tribe to the central part, and the Naiman tribe to the western part, would naturally list Buerhan Mountain, the source of the river, the ancestral land where he rose, as a holy mountain.
The Huns were different. They rose south of the Hungary River (now Selenge River), wiped out the Donghu to the east, drove out the Yuezhi to the west, and then dominated the grassland empire.
For the Huns, their holy mountain must be the highest peak at the source of their rising mother river!
When tracing the source from the Hungary River, what comes to your eye must be the highest peak of Kent Mountain in the west of the Yuwushui Valley!
And in this area, there is a mountain that is particularly towering!
Moreover, it happens to be the birthplace of Yuwushui, the Hungary River.
More importantly, the straight line distance between it and the Yuwushui Valley and Ulaanbaatar in the center of the Tula Valley in later generations is only 80 kilometers!
It is the Zaluchut Mountain in later generations.
Located in the northeast of Ulaanbaatar, the western foot of Kent Mountain. (I would like to remind you that if you have the opportunity to go to Mongolia, if you want to admire Huo Qubing's great achievements, don't go to Buerhan Mountain, nor can you go! The location where Huo Qubing really sealed the wolf Juxu Mountain should be Zaluchut Mountain. This place is not listed as a forbidden area in Mongolia. You can enter and visit and pay tribute!)
The reason why this mountain was chosen as a holy mountain by the Huns was extremely sacred.
In addition to being the source of his mother river, it is also because, standing on this mountain and looking west, you can overlook the Hang Ai Mountain, the Hung River, the Yuwu River and the Hei Water Basin.
Just like Genghis Khan standing on Buerhan Mountain, he can overlook the Greater Xing'an Mountains to the northeast, control the Krulun River and Onen River, and control the entire eastern grassland.
This is the geopolitical choice of the nomadic empires that rose in different regions.
The discovery of this situation undoubtedly reduced the burden on the Han army for Zhang Yue and the Han army that had reached this expedition, allowing Zhang Yue to have more time to complete the mission of re-taking the idol journey!
Of course, the risks have also increased accordingly!
The Han army had to be careful to deal with the threat of the Hun cavalry that might come from the Yuwushui, the Hungarian River and even the Hala Valley.
but……
There seems to be no need to worry at the moment!
Since the Han army crossed Mount Pangyu, along the way, the Hun tribes surrendered.
Especially after the Xuyanzi led the way, tribes of all sizes, large and small, could only kneel down and be captured if they didn't have time to run away!
As for resistance?
It doesn't exist!
It has a clan of the Twin Clan, plus the power of the Han army.
As long as there is no stupid person in the sky, he will know that kneeling down and raising his hands to surrender is a wise move!
So, within four days, the Han army surrendered tens of thousands of Huns.
More than 200,000 livestock and as many as 50,000 horses were seized.
Including the tens of thousands of livestock seized from Prayuo Yushan, as well as the captives and the captured Xiongnu prisoners of war.
Now, behind the Han army, countless prisoners and livestock are followed.
Zhang Yue was too lazy to spend time managing these people.
Throw them to Wuheng people for management!
So, Wu Heng cried with joy, and his loyalty increased slowly.
And Zhang Yue also fulfilled his initial promise and followed me, women, livestock and wealth are indispensable!
These surrendered Hun tribes of the Huns were naturally divided up by the various tribes of Wuheng.
Countless people formed a family overnight, and even successfully took over and became the father of several children.
I was so happy that I was almost crazy!
As for the captured young and strong Huns...
Zhang Yue has not yet figured out a way to deal with them.
But they will definitely not be left on the grassland.
They will not be handed over to either Wu Heng or Xu Yansheng!
Fortunately, these people are honest and docile.
After surrendering, he realized the reality and was extremely respectful. Almost no one was making trouble. Everyone recognized their role and value.
This may be the reason why nomadic peoples can always exist.
As long as they are defeated, their surrender and obedience to the victorious side will make people feel so high that they have no excuses to attack!
"Shizhong Gong, our army's vanguard, has approached Guyan Mountain..." Xu Xiangru rode his horse and walked to Zhang Yue and reported: "No trace of the Hun cavalry has been found at present. There seems to be no Hun cavalry near Guyan Mountain..."
Zhang Yue listened, nodded slightly, and said, "Tell the striker, don't advance rashly, continue to wait on the periphery!"
Guyan Mountain is the Dragon City of the Xiongnu and the burial place of the Xiongnu Shanyu.
It is equivalent to Luoyang and Pei County in the Han Dynasty.
Although the Han army won consecutive battles, the Huns may not be able to fight for trapped beasts in the local area.
Be careful, it's absolutely true.
However……
After Zhang Yue issued an order for an hour, he received a report that a large number of Xiongnu herders and nobles who took the initiative to surrender appeared outside Guyan Mountain, among which there were even hundreds of "loyal ministers and righteous men" who claimed to be captured and detained.
After receiving this news, Zhang Yue was slightly surprised and immediately brought the cavalry and rushed there with him lightly.
Because he knew that this discovery might be the greatest gain of this expedition besides victory, the Han army and the Han Dynasty.
A best script to inspire national morale and unite the government and the people!
