Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 211 Reaching a Union
The strong man slowly walked in from the door of the king's tent, stood in front of the deputy elder of the Yuezhi, glared at him, then bowed to Touman Shanyu and said: "Your Majesty, I'm back!"

"Modun!"

Touman Shanyu looked at him in surprise and asked curiously: "Didn't I transfer you to attack Zhao? Why are you back?"

Modu was the son of Touman and a prince of the Xiongnu clan.

Some time ago, the main city of Handan of Zhao State was captured by Qin State, and Zhao State was defeated.

After learning the news, Touman Shanyu transferred Maodun to attack Zhao's border and seize supplies.

Mao Dun sighed helplessly and quickly explained: "Your Majesty, although the Zhao State was defeated, the Zhao State's soldiers and horses are good at riding and shooting in Hufu, and they were unable to attack several times. I don't know why the Zhao Army directly retreated to the Great Wall. It was extremely difficult to capture it, so I led the army back."

Touman Chanyu took a deep breath, feeling helpless in his heart.

Zhao's cavalry is the strongest among the six countries, especially the Hufu cavalry, which is comparable to the strength of their prairie cavalry. What's more, there is veteran Li Mu in charge of command, so it is difficult for their Huns cavalry to take advantage.

Then Mao Dun's words came out, and he asked with confusion in his eyes: "Mo Dun, what did you mean by what you just said?"

Modun sneered, looked at the deputy elder with disdain and said, "Your Majesty, since the Yuezhi clan wants to discuss an alliance to resist Qin, why don't you come to our Xiongnu clan in person?"

"Besides, there is the Qiang clan in front of your Yuezhi clan. How could the Qin army bypass the Qiang clan and go directly to attack your Yuezhi clan?"

"No one in the world knows about our grassland and the Qin State. The hatred in the Central Plains is as deep as the sea. The Qin State will not take the risk of being surrounded and suppressed by the Qiang family and your Yuezhi and send a large army to directly attack your Yuezhi, right?"

After listening to Maodun's words, Touman also nodded and looked at the deputy elder again, with a cold murderous look flashing in his eyes.

If the deputy elder of the Yuezhi couldn't explain the reason, he wouldn't mind sending a corpse to the Yuezhi.

Looking at Touman Shanyu's gnawing eyes, the deputy elder of the Yue clan couldn't help but tremble. A burst of cold sweat broke out on his back. He took a deep breath and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the Qiang clan has been destroyed by the Qin State. The Yue clan has been destroyed by Qin. We are also being attacked by the Qin State, and my leader of the Yue clan is busy chasing the Qin army with his troops."

"The Qin State did not pay attention to the many tribes in the grassland at all. They even threatened that the Xiongnu tribe would be next!"

The deputy elder of the Yuezhi pointed the finger at the Qin army with embarrassment, hoping to convince the two of them.

really.

Touman Shanyu was shocked when he heard the news, and he was stunned.

Even Mao Dun, who had looked doubtful just now, frowned, thoughtfully.

Is it possible that Zhao State chose to defend the Great Wall because of Qin State?
If the Qin State really sent troops to attack the grassland, then the Zhao State would definitely take action and would definitely take advantage of the Qin State's attack on the grassland to gather all the soldiers and recapture the capital Handan.

Handan is not only the residence of the kings of the Zhao Kingdom, but even the mausoleums are in Handan. How could the King of Zhao just sit idly by?

Moreover, the Qiang clan has been taking advantage of the war between Qin and the Six Kingdoms in recent years to invade Qin on the border. It is not impossible to destroy the Qiang clan with the strength of Qin.

Everyone knows the Qin State's wolfish ambition to unify the six countries. Once the Qin State sends troops to the grasslands, it will not stop just because it kills a Qiang family.

Mao Dun took a deep breath, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and his tone was much gentler than before. He turned his head and asked, "May I ask the deputy elder, how many troops did Qin bring here?" The deputy elder told him bluntly. : "Twenty thousand Qin troops and fifty thousand herdsmen!"

"what?"

"Twenty thousand Qin troops!"

"Fifty thousand herdsmen?"

Touman Shanyu had a look of astonishment on his face, and stood up from the throne with a sudden movement. He looked at him with surprise in his eyes, thinking that he had heard wrongly, and asked again: "Are you sure the information is correct?"

7 people! !
The total number of these two parties is only 7!
How could 7 people wipe out the Qiang clan with more than [-] troops?

What's more, there are 5 slaves among them. How can these slaves defeat the prairie cavalry with their fighting power?
The Qiang clan of 10 people was wiped out by the Qin army of 2 people. It is impossible for anyone to believe it.

The deputy elder nodded heavily and said calmly: "That's all the spies saw!"

Although the Yuezhi clan could not believe it just like the Xiongnu, the fact was before their eyes, and the Qin State had even invaded the territory of the Yuezhi clan.

This also makes them have to believe it!
Mao Dun heard the implication of these words, 'These are the only things he saw', which meant that the Qin State might have more troops than these, and even hid some troops and horses, deliberately not revealing its true strength and luring the enemy.

Only in this way can the current situation be explained clearly.

Seeing the hesitation of the two men, the deputy elder of the Yuezhi continued: "Your Majesty, Prince, the Lord of Qin is marching to attack our grassland. The grassland is where our ancestors lived. No matter how many troops the Qin army has, they cannot be allowed to do this on the grassland. Such wanton behavior!"

"Besides, the six countries of the Central Plains have long hated the Qin State. If the Qin State marches into the grassland, the six countries will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to send troops to attack the Qin State. The Qin State will definitely withdraw from the grassland. If the Xiongnu clan is unwilling to join forces, we, the Yuezhi, will The strength of one clan can also repel the Qin State, and by then the Qin State will seize the supplies from the Qiang family..."

The deputy elder hesitated to speak and deliberately did not finish his speech.

When Touman Shanyu heard about the supplies, a glint suddenly flashed in his eyes. You must know that the reason why they worked so hard to attack Zhao was to seize the supplies. To the north of them, the Donghu forces had annexed other surrounding tribes. Their strength He is strong and cannot make enemies easily.

Next is the equally powerful Yue clan.

They were facing Zhao State head-on. Although their strength was average, Zhao State had trained a cavalry and developed Hufu cavalry and archery in recent years in order to resist the Huns. They could not get any advantage from Zhao State.

At present, if they can get a share of the materials that Qin State seized from the Qiang family, they can solve their problem of lack of materials, and they can even march to Donghu after two years of cultivation.

At that time, if they come back and capture the Yueshi, the entire grassland will completely belong to their Xiongnu clan.

The materials in the entire grassland will belong to them. With the development of these materials for several years, it is not impossible to enter the Central Plains.

Thinking of this, the corners of Touman Shanyu's mouth slightly raised, revealing a hint of a smile, he looked at the deputy elder of the Yue clan and said: "The deputy elder will go back first and inform the Yue clan leader that our clan agrees to the alliance and will lead the army in person in two days. Within Yueshi territory!"

The deputy elder nodded and bowed: "Your Majesty believes that if our two tribes join forces, no matter how many horses the Qin State has, no matter how powerful it is, they will be nothing compared to our army of prairie cavalry. The Qin State is seeking its own destruction." !”

"Then I will retire first and report this news to my Yuezhi clan leader!"
