Recently, she has always been regarded as a case of my class, a Thai driver who shocked the world 2,500 years ago.
Herodotus, the father of history, wrote it as Scythian, and also talked about three combinations, namely weapons, horses, and animal ornaments. And the carriage we see in the movie. This is also the triad of Xiongnu that later made Liu Bang dread in 200 BC.
Around 500 BC, Queen Tomyris defeated Cyrus the Great. Three hundred years later, the Xiongnu, Modun Chanyu, defeated Liu Bang and became his lifelong injury.

What led to the Huns' superiority?
First, of course, the cavalry. This was the Central Plains team at that time, which was still not suitable for it. When we think about the resurrected legion, what we see is one by one phalanx infantry, using spears to lead. Through this oppressive phalanx of infantry, the prime mover of the owl head destroys the confidence of the enemy. The cavalry is at best cooperative. This was still the case when Qin Shihuang destroyed the Six Kingdoms, and it was still the same when Meng Tian went north to fight the Huns with 300,000 people. But the strange thing is that they won the battle and did not continue to attack north.
The battle between Chu and Han, the chaos in the world, gave the Huns a chance to breathe.
In the siege of Baden, they gave full play to the advantages of cavalry, with strong maneuverability and great oppression. 400,000 people blocked Liu Bang so tightly that he could not come out for 7 days and 7 nights.

The second is the historical record of Han, they are not ashamed of running away. But the premise is that they have no property and baggage. This is the premise for the prairie peoples to maintain their purity and independence. Then in large-scale military struggles, they can mobilize civilian power at any time, or they can withdraw strategically at any time.
This is why from 133 BC to the middle of 90 BC, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty faced the military minister Shan Yu, it seemed that Wei Qing and Huo Qubing fought a very beautiful victory. In fact, they killed only tens of thousands of people. Their vast force could simply be moved quickly.
These can quickly see the advantages of Tomyris. They don't play tug-of-war, they all win or lose once.
