I, the prince, only want to be deposed.

Chapter 457: Have you seen how powerful I am?
"Is this true?"

Xianbi's eyes lit up when he heard this.

How could he know that at least half of what Wei Lu said was made up by his imagination based on what he knew after hearing Liu Ju's "slip of the tongue".

What's more, his imagination makes sense and is completely logically consistent.

Especially the matter of the "silver mountain", which instantly made all the details and motives more reasonable.

Although Liu Ju was sure that the few words revealed to Wei Lu during that "slip of the tongue" might not be enough to save his life at a critical moment, such a person would definitely betray the Han Dynasty and reveal them to the Huns in order to save his life, which would plant the seed of westward migration in the hearts of the Huns anyway.

When the Han army put more and more pressure on the Xiongnu and officially began to threaten the Chanyu's tribe, this seed would take root, sprout and bear fruit.

After Wei Lu's thinking, his analysis turned out to be true.

Not to mention Xianbi, even Liu Ju felt that he had made a major strategic mistake, giving the dying Huns an opportunity to strangle the Han Dynasty.

"Of course I take it seriously. I wonder if the Right Wise King knows that Han silver coins have appeared in the Western Regions?"

Wei Lu asked back with a smile.

Xianbi nodded:

"I have seen it before. The silver coin has the head of the emperor of the Han Dynasty engraved on it."

"That's it. When has the Right Wise King ever seen the Han Dynasty use silver coins? Even now, the Han Dynasty still uses copper coins called 'Wu Zhu Qian'."

Wei Lu said with reason and evidence,

"All signs indicate that whether the Han Dynasty is marching into the Western Regions or suddenly starting a war with the Xiongnu again, it is all to open up this trade route to the West and make the silver mountain play its due value."

"The Xiongnu have occupied the Western Regions for a hundred years and have had a profound influence on these small countries in the Western Regions. Therefore, if the Han Dynasty wants to open up this trade route, it will always have to go through the Xiongnu. That's why they suddenly launched a large-scale attack on the right part, which is closest to the Western Regions."

"In addition, the Han people have also been making significant moves in the Western Regions recently."

"First, an organization called 'Western Alliance' was established, calling on the countries in the Western Regions to fight against the Xiongnu together. More than a dozen countries have been won over, including the great country of Qiuci."

"Now we are going to make peace with Wusun, the largest country in the Western Regions. If this goes through, most of the Western Regions will probably be in the hands of the Han Dynasty."

"If we continue to exert our influence westward, will the other small countries just obey us?"

"In this way, the business path may be successful..."

Hearing this, Xianbi showed some anger on his face, and he gritted his teeth and cursed:
"How dare the Wusun dog slave marry the Han without the knowledge of the Xiongnu? Do you think the Xiongnu no longer exist?"

"You Xian Wang calmed down."

Wei Lu smiled and advised,
"At this point, the interests involved have already become clear. The Right Wise King should report this matter to the Chanyu. If a decision can be made in time and the Han Dynasty's real plan fails, it will weaken the Han Dynasty and strengthen the Xiongnu, and the Right Wise King will become the Xiongnu's greatest contributor."

Of course, this also includes Wei Lu himself.

He thought very clearly that if he wanted to report the matter to the Chanyu, he would naturally have to introduce him, the envoy who betrayed the Han Dynasty, to the Chanyu in order to increase the credibility of the matter.

In this way, he will have the opportunity to perform in front of the Xiongnu Chanyu, and his future is promising.

Therefore, there is no need to hide your incompetence in front of Xianbi in this matter, as you will definitely get some credit.

"Um……"

Xianbi then fell into deep thought. Wei Lu had completely convinced him, but he just had a strange feeling.

"Wei Lu, why do I feel that you Han traitors are taking us Xiongnu further and further away?" "What do you mean, Right Wise King?"

Wei Lu quickly suppressed his complacency and asked subconsciously.

"First, Zhao Xin, who betrayed the Han Dynasty and surrendered to the Xiongnu more than ten years ago, suggested that the Chanyu leave Yinshan and move to Mobei to tire out the Han soldiers. As a result, after the Han army chased them to Mobei, they were not tired at all and even had enough energy to perform Fengshan in Langjuxu Mountain."

After thinking it over, he expressed his thoughts.

"Now you have pointed out the major flaws in the Han Dynasty's strategy and proposed that the Xiongnu migrate westwards to the west of the Western Regions to undermine the Han Dynasty's plan."

"Isn't this just taking us Xiongnu to a place further and further away from the Han Dynasty?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Lu's heart immediately rose to his throat again, and he hurriedly explained:

"Your Majesty, I am loyal to you. I have no such thoughts. I am just putting myself in the shoes of the Xiongnu. If you don't believe me, please cut open my chest and see whether my heart is red or black!"

"Don't be nervous. I am not blaming you. I just said this casually."

Xianbi smiled and said,
"If the Chanyu had not listened to Zhao Xin's advice, it would have been much easier for the Han Dynasty to attack the Xiongnu's Dragon City. The Xiongnu would have suffered even greater losses and might have been destroyed long ago."

"The news you brought is equally important. I'm afraid it has something to do with the survival of the Xiongnu and their long-term plans. How could I not believe it?"

Wei Lu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to thank him:
"The Right Sage King is indeed worthy of the name 'Sage'. I have seen it."

"But the Right Wise King is so wise. If he loses troops and territory in this battle, I'm afraid he will be harassed after arriving in Longcheng. I really can't bear it. I wonder if there is anything I can do for the Right Wise King. I will definitely not refuse even if I die."

Xianbi smiled proudly:
"Don't worry. If I had been defeated by someone else this time, I would have been in trouble. Fortunately, the person who attacked me this time was Wei Qing... Even though I was defeated by Wei Qing, I was able to bring back so many people. Even though I was defeated, it is still an honor!"

"???"

Wei Lu was dumbfounded.

How dare you say "honor in defeat"?
You clearly ordered the other tribes to fight to the death, but when you saw the situation was not good, you turned around and led your soldiers to run away, and were afraid that you would run slower than the other tribes. Where is your shame?

If all Huns are of this character, I'd better seize the time and find an opportunity to escape back to Han.

Anyway, no one knows that I'm a traitor yet. Maybe after I go back and make up some nonsense, I can still be portrayed as a warrior who swears to die rather than surrender, and still get rewards from the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

……

More than a month later, Weiyang Palace.

"As expected of my great general, look, Su Wen, come and take a look too!"

Liu Che's face was flushed as he shook his feet. He threw the victory report to Su Wen who was waiting beside him and said in high spirits,
"He defeated the right wing of the Xiongnu in one battle and attacked the court of the Right Sage King. He has regained his former might. I know that he is not old and his abilities have not declined at all!"

"That rebellious son had just made a small contribution to my master, and he dared to claim a great victory. His tail is almost up in the sky."

"Isn't it time for him to see how powerful I am?"

"..."

Su Wen just kept smiling and saying congratulations.

Yes, yes, your majesty and Wei Qing together are the nemesis of the Huns, invincible...
