Volume 11 Zhang Gongbei Looking at the Sirius Chapter 1122 The Covenant (17)

No matter what other people think, the establishment of the covenant was quickly settled in discussions between several tribes, and the covenant formed into a written one, and now it is impossible to see how effective it is.

There are many cases of tearing up the covenant on the grassland. The Hu people on the grassland have no loyalty. This is a bit too much, but on the grassland, oaths are not a reliable thing. Of course, compared to the Han people, the oaths of the grassland are more binding, which is an indisputable fact.

But then again, once the covenant is involved, the Han people's emphasis on the covenant is not comparable to that of the Hu people.

This alliance has such a covenant that rarely appears on the grassland, at least it is much more at ease than verbal oaths. With evidence, it is still more practical than empty talk.

The most fundamental thing about the covenant was written by Zhao Shi himself. There are only two things, one is to fight against each other without invasion, and the other is to fight against the enemy together.

It seems simple, but in fact there are many details. The first is equivalent to the protection of each ministries for their own territory, ensuring that allies will not attack and fight arbitrarily and eliminate the possibility of civil strife. Moreover, there are small clauses to explain, and finally explain that once there is a dispute and can be negotiated privately, they will discuss and resolve it privately, and if neither of the two ministries that have caused the dispute will be satisfied.

Then we have to convene a small alliance, and all ethnic groups send envoys to discuss and decide the result. Whether everyone is satisfied or someone is dissatisfied, they must accept it.

It is strictly forbidden for all troops to kill each other. This is the fundamental reason for this. If someone violates it, he will be severely punished by other departments.

This article has obvious benefits for the alliance. But in the long run, this article is likely to make the Hu people in the grassland bigger, and for the Han people, it is not too in line with the Han people's goals.

But then again, as long as the Han people are a little stronger, they will not expect the Hu people to leave the Han people alone and do what they do. In fact, it is still the same old saying that they cannot make it themselves. No matter how good the alliance is, it is useless, and in the end it depends on their own strength.

Now it seems that under this alliance agreement, the pattern of the central grassland has been actually set. The three tribes coexist here, but they also restricted their mutual annexation and powerful ways.

As for the second article, when they jointly fought against the enemy, the Qin people occupied an absolute dominant position in it and had the power to recruit various ministries to participate in the war, while the other ministries did not have this authority, and they had the power to share the spoils.

Of course, in order to appease them, there are also detailed rules. For example, when a tribe is threatened by foreign tribes, other tribes have the obligation to help it fight, see the size of its power, and also have the power to obtain spoils.

In fact, most of these are based on some treaties in later generations. The binding force is naturally far less powerful and rigorous than in later generations, but it can already unite several tribes closely together.

In this way, the Qin people had actually gained the power to recruit soldiers on the grassland, which seemed to have an equal taste, but had already taken the prototype of the Eight Banners of the Later Eight Banners.

The covenant was finally decided, and the days of the alliance were not far away. The leaders of the tribe who had been exhausted very much gathered together and finally began to discuss the details of the alliance.

Compared to signing a covenant, the matter of the alliance is actually much simpler...

In the late autumn season, a grand alliance finally kicked off on the Yunwai Grassland. Whether it was the number of participants or the number of tribes here, it was unprecedented since the fall of the Great Turkic Empire.

After receiving the invitation, guests from various tribes who came here to participate in the alliance came to their seats with complex expressions. Looking at the series of grand scenes, many people had changed their thoughts and made various difficult decisions.

However, no matter what kind of thoughts you have, everyone understands that after the Naiman tribe was defeated, the overlord here seems to have not changed much except that one has changed to three.

Moreover, the tribes occupying here may not be as powerful as those of the Naiman tribe, but they have the vitality and enterprising spirit that the Naiman tribe does not have. Moreover, except for the Han people, the other tribes have deep roots on the grassland.

The Tatars have always occupied the grasslands in Yunzhong and outside Yunwai. As a branch of the Mongolian tribes, the Krei tribe is one of the longest-established tribes among the Mongolian tribes.

As for the Naiman people, let alone, they who were almost completely born from the Naiman tribe, although they played the role of losers, their influence in the central and northern grasslands did not disappear. As long as they can consolidate their position in the alliance, they may be the second only to the Han people in this tribal alliance in the future.

There were so many people coming to this Manghui that they could not even sit in a tent.

Therefore, when the alliance was held, a new camp was built, with long tables and chairs arranged far away. On the front of these tables and chairs, there was a high platform, with many flags flying on the platform...

The grassland people follow their own rules and invite guests and their followers to take their seats. Only then can the most noble people climb up to the platform and become one of the guests that the host values ​​the most.

Several tribes of the alliance were well prepared. Not only were friends from several tribes, but their enemies came here, but several tribes showed their minds and did not use some small means to humiliate their enemies. All the messengers who came here received corresponding hospitality and did not do anything to the seats.

For example, the envoys from the Mongolian tribes came to the high platform. Obviously, several tribes recognized the strength of the Mongolian tribes. However, looking at the people on the high platform, the envoys from the Mongolian tribes must be very embarrassed now, because they are almost all their enemies around.

The Meyer-given people, Tatar people, Naiman people, and Kelie tribes seemed to have had disputes with them except for the Qin and Tatar people who had no relationship with the Mongolian tribes, and the dispute was not long-standing.

In the central grassland, due to the long suppression of the Naiman minister, there were only two tribal leaders who were qualified to go up to the high platform, and they both had a good reputation. If used to describe it in the words of the Han people, it would be highly respected.

However, a good reputation also means that the tribe behind them is not very powerful. Many people also understand that these two old guys must have expressed their loyalty to the new master when they can walk onto the high platform. Many leaders of the Naiman tribe who came here cursed in their hearts, cunning old guys...

Several tribal leaders from the northern wasteland also went to the high platform. Among them, except for the Achina tribe, who is known for his bravery and good combat, the others had ancient and noble blood flowing, and an old man was a descendant of the Huns.

Although the glory of the Huns had long disappeared on the vast grasslands, there were legends left by the Huns in the Western Regions and even to the west. There, their reputation was more awe-inspiring than the Turks, and some of the descendants of the Turks were mistakenly called the Huns by the locals.

However, no matter what, this alliance showed the decline of the grassland tribe from another aspect. There are fewer and fewer tribes on the grassland that can be called noble and have strong strength.

Needless to say, the Naimans and Tatars, but the Mongols in the northeast, plus the Tatars and Meyer beggars, are actually descendants of the Wei people from the Anshishi. However, although they have such a origin, they have always been symbols of barbarism.

But now, they have become the new prides on the grassland.

The Khitans, Jurchens, and Xixia people on the grasslands have passed. All of these tribes nowadays do not seem to be powerful, but they all occupy large areas of grasslands. Is the alternation of new and old on the grasslands silently completed?

But it is not silent. Think about it, the turbulent days on the grassland have never stopped in the past ten years, and the source of all this is actually in the Northeast.

During the process of unification of the Mongolian tribes in the northeast, they once constantly collided and fought with the Naimans, Tatars, and Meyerki. In the end, they not only expelled the Krei tribes, but also defeated their enemies.

What extended the storm was the war between the Naimans and the Krei tribe, the civil strife and revival of the Tatars, and even the subsequent defeat of the Naimans.

During these wars, all the tribes in the grassland were severely damaged. The tribes here seemed to be strong, but in fact, they were all covered in scars and exhausted...

But no one can compete with them between them. They came to a very wonderful time period, with a faint confrontation but a balance.

Among them, no one has the ability to annex each other anymore. Now it seems that the Mongolian tribes are the most powerful, but when several tribes united, the Mongolian tribes could only sigh.

In fact, the arrival of the Qin people was the key to establishing this balance. Not only did they defeat the Naiman tribes before the Mongolian tribes, but they also quickly united all tribes in the central grasslands and suppressed the Mongolian tribes on the northeast grasslands.

If the Naiman tribe cannot be defeated, there will be no war to annex the Kelie tribe later. The losses of the Mongolian tribes were much greater than they thought...
