Way of Overlord-Chapter 443: Resistance in the South

All of Zamukha sons is quite obedient.

Not because they love their father but because they could not disobey the chief words.

Not to mention that the chief is their father

This method of enfeoffing them to different region works because it shows even the chief son had to work their ass off.

But now when the one that is always refereeing the match is not there, suddenly, these sons of his now become a very unstable factor.

All it needed is a spark that would turn the current already fragile situation into an internal war.

Will the chief of Vihur tribe dies? And if he dies who would succeed him?

Will one of his sons won the seat? Or will it be one of his bastards?

All the young wolves waiting for the old wolf to die.

When the old wolf dies, the young wolves would pounce on each other. Or would it be a foreign tribe that sees this as a weakness and cut the fortune of the Vihur tribe?

As long as Zamukha lives, the fate and fortune of Vihur tribe is still there. But once he die, the fortune and luck of the tribe probably would split into pieces.

In any other times, the internal problem of the Vihur tribe would not change much in the scheme of things. But now it’s a very different time.

Once the Vihur tribe splits, there will be tribes that would make sure that these division last.

[The Overlord of the North: Zamukha the Chief of Vihur tribe]

.......

On the western border of Vihur tribe is the Askazan tribe.

Askazan tribe is quite large but it has been a long time since they fight a real battle.

Askazan tribe chief is very old.

He did not make any moves at all during the expansion spree in the lower south.

Instead, he waited.

And waited.

And then when he heard that Zamukha the chief of the Vihur tribe is unconscious, he finally makes his move.

He did not attack Vihur tribe instead, he created an alliance with the Aoshi tribe.

He married his two daughters to Aobai and Aoba. Aoba is known to be a warrior of great strength

Like Belarion he was born with innate strength.

But he is not the chief of the Aoshi tribe.

Still, the chief of the Askazan tribe married his two daughters to Aoshi tribe and not only that he even give the seat of the chief of the Askazan tribe to Aobai

With the blessing of the former chief of Askazan, the Askazan tribe is no more and now there is Aoshizan tribe.

This is a combination of these two tribes names and now they are one

The former chief of Askazan tribe now become the High Elder of Aoshizan tribe.

And while the other tribes in the lower south is calming down, the tribe in the north began making move.

Aoba and Aobai rally his men and begins attacking Tare tribe and in one battle defeated the great warrior of the Tare tribe and quickly gained the surrender of Tare tribe.

Then instead of stopping their ride, the Aoshizan tribe begins attacking the Oglan tribe and is now advancing toward the eastern front of the Oglan tribe.

This battle between these two tribes probably would take months to settle but it is clear that the changes in Vihur tribe begins making changes to the northern tribes of the Southern Great Steppe

There is a new tribe on the rise in the north. A storm of the Southern Great Steppe this time might be started in an unexpected place

[Rising Tribe in the North: Aoshizan tribe]

.......

When the Toghrul tribe heard the happening in the north of his border, he was visited by the envoys of the Khagai tribe

A feast and a word of advice the Toghrul chief demand a battle. Ota came and defeat all the great warriors of Toghrul

Convinced by the strength of the Khagai tribe Toghrul surrender to Khagai, honoured as an elder and Valgrun stationed five thousand men on the border of the north.

On the eastern border, he is now neighbour with the Nergui and Chagai tribe as the two tribe that are hostile toward him

But with the surrender of the Toghrul tribe. the west is now decided. Two powers Khagai and the Three Great Tribes.

On the north there is Vihur and Aoshizan tribe. The free tribes that is still not under any great overlord is the tribe on the eastern side of the Southern Great Steppe

Now, all of them are waiting. Waiting for the right moment. Spring is about to pass and summer is about to come

And this summer, things would not be peaceful

...

The changes of the world did not only affect the Steppe.

Yan dynasty is also affected.

Most affected by the changes in the Steppe is the Nurshira region

Now it is basically abandoned by the central government and the people of Yan that used to treat people of barbarian descent like dogs is now being slaughtered by the thousands

Farmers could only use hoe and farm tools when being attacked. How could they win against the horsemen of the Steppe. Villages are burned and cities are looted and sacked.

And among them rises a Sirong warrior.

Qianrong Tuge

He is born in a small Sirong village in Nurshira region.

He has burned dozens of villages and kills every single Yan people who he called yellow shits

Tuge childhoods was a story of tragedy.

When he was young a general of the Yan dynasty come to his village kills all of his villagers and then forced his father to become their guide to show them the road in the mountainous region of the north.

That was the seed of the rebellion planted in his heart

Those soldiers did not need to kill the village. They have done nothing wrong to the Yan dynasty.

But his villagers were killed nonetheless. His grandmother, his grandfather, his mother, his brother and sisters, his cousins.

His aunt, his uncles, his relatives all of them were killed

The Yan people called them barbarians dogs and called them barbarian cowards. It wasn’t until he grows up he understood something

It did not matter whether he did something or not.

It matters that he is of a different race from Yan people.

Yan people look down on them and called them cowards because they fight with common people of the "barbarians tribes"

When they are face to face with the true horsemen of the Steppe, they run away like they meet the devil

Only in their books could they write stories like one Yan man is equal to five barbarians. That is because they inflate their wins and trivialize their losses against barbarian tribes

In other words, they lie to maintain the morale.

Qianrong Tuge has seen many Yan people. These are a group of people who kneels and kowtow at the first sign of trouble

They have no backbone, and not faith. They does not know shame and does not have honour

And because of that Tuge learns Yan words and Yan books. Why?

Because he understood one thing.

To defeat this vile race that bring destruction to the world, he first need to understand why they did what they did.

And learning Yan words, the more he hated the Yan people and all it stand for.

He understood that the Yan wanted to kill all the barbarians in the world

One of their ministers said "Break their lineage, break their roots, break their connections, and break their origins. Completely shovel up the roots of "two-faced people," dig them out, and vow to fight these two-faced people until the end"

To them, the "barbarians" would always be two faced people and only Yan people are noble people

The so called Yan people are protected only refers to one race.

The Yanhuang race. The others would not survive in this land.

Today, they would say they would protect you. Then the other day, they would change their words and eradicate your tribe

There is a story of one of the doctors of Yan people sterilize the entire tribe of Steppe people making them unable to have children.

The people of Yan are the bravest in times of peace, the most cowardly in times of peril, the strongest in the presence of cowards, the servants in the presence of the strong, fierce and hateful in the presence of the kind and shockingly silent in the presence of evil.

And as such, Tuge made his life mission to eradicate every Yan people he found.

You could not live with a race that only use lies and could not live with other races.

No matter how tolerant you are, this race would try to steal your land, and then after stealing your land, they could write in their history book justification of how that land was theirs

If the people of the Steppe does not fight, then this justification would be acknowledged in history.

So, they must fight. And they would fight until the last breath.

Tuge inherit this bravery, this blood of resistance against the Yan people oppression against his people.
