Tongluo Tribe

the Tongluo Tribe and a steppe tribe, which is based on horse breeding, live in the wilds on the edge of the Great Tang

the Tongluo Tribe is led by ***General Abusi*** and ***Abutong***, the son of General Abusi...

From birth, those from the Tongluo Tribe choose a colt to accompany them for life. They treat their horses just like their closest kin, so their horses also gain human traits. As such, the Tongluo horses are known to be untamable by anyone except for those from the Tongluo Tribe. The Tongluo are famed to be the strongest cavalry in the world. These people won't be easy to deal with!" Zhuang Zhengping whispered with a grim expression.

But even the elite steel cavalry which the Zhuang Clan took pride in couldn't compare with the elite cavalry of the Tongluo Tribe.

The Tongluo cavalry had to adhere to an extremely strict regimen and discipline, and in terms of how they treated their war steeds, the Zhuang Clan couldn't even begin to compare to them.

For one, every single Tongluo steed grew up with a Tongluo youth, and the both of them shared a very strong relationship. On top of that, their steeds were dressed in a close-fitting armor which shielded them from head to toe.

Before allying with Great Tang, the Tongluo Tribe served as mercenaries, and the money they earned was devoted to crafting such armor for their steeds.

At the same time, members of the Tongluo Tribe were also very adept at battle. The first food that newborn members of the Tongluo Tribe ate was raw food dripping with blood.

At seven years old, they would be expected to hunt wild wolves alone.

Their entire tribe took pride in combat, and it was a glory in itself to die in battle!

Furthermore, the members of the Tongluo Tribe also had a unique set of fighting and cultivation techniques. These were further refined over several millennia years of battle, and they were only passed down within their group.

As such, all members of Tongluo Tribe possessed extraordinary strength.

But even so, the members of the Tongluo Tribe were very limited. Due to long years of standing on the frontlines, the Tongluo Tribe faced as astonishingly high death toll in war.

To date, there were only around thirty thousand Tongluo warriors!

But nevertheless, this army of thirty thousand struck fear deep into both enemies and allies alike, thus allowing Abusi to rise to the position of a Hu great general!

Even the Zhuang Clan was filled with awe for the Tongluo cavalry.

They were true warriors of the battlefield!

The Tongluo Tribe formed a small faction themselves, and they didn't come into contact with anyone else. Besides Wang Chong, it was the same for the other clans in the capital, as well.

The members of the Tongluo Tribe were extremely strong, so there were many who respected them. However, Wang Chong didn't have a high opinion of them.

The Tongluo Tribe had allied themselves with Great Tang in the era of Emperor Taizong.

The Tongluo cavalry didn't join the ranks of Great Tang because their beliefs were aligned with them or anything. Rather, Emperor Taizong had forcefully annexed them with his powerful army.

Back then, not even the Eastern and Western Turkic Khaganate was a match for the militaristic Emperor Taizong, needless to say thirty thousand Tongluo men.

Judging their current plight, they chose to submit to Great Tang.

And in the time in between, the members of the Tongluo Tribe did contribute much to the empire. However, this was just a means for survival.

Wang Chong knew that the Tongluo Tribe would eventually betray Great Tang.

Considering how the Tongluo Tribe were forced into Great Tang at the very start, it wasn't surprising that they would eventually betray Great Tang. However, what Wang Chong couldn't accept was their action of massacring the civilians of Great Tang right after their betrayal.

As such, Wang Chong truly couldn't find the slightest goodwill for the Tongluo Tribe. (ch.300)
