The Necromancer of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 140 Follow me back to the Central Plains
Hu Chuquan came to Yuan Xu's tent.

The two sat facing each other.

Yuan Xu asked, "Did Shanyu come to see me and ask about the population and horses?"

"That's right." Hu Chuquan looked embarrassed: "The Xiongnu's various branches are scattered, and many tribes have not gathered until now. It is really impossible to send people and horses."

"The deadline I gave seems to be delayed by Da Shanyu." Yuan Xu sneered: "Tomorrow evening, if any tribe fails to deliver, I will destroy them. Please tell me."

Hu Chuquan was taken aback: "The general's meaning..."

"My meaning is very clear." Yuan Xu said: "Whoever makes me feel uncomfortable, I will make him feel uncomfortable."

"I understand." Knowing that Yuan Xu couldn't be persuaded, Hu Chuquan replied, "Let's go back and arrange someone to spread the news."

That night, Huchuquan sent hundreds of cavalry to send news to the Huns.

At first Yuan Xu only said that if the population and horses could not be delivered, the royal court would be wiped out.

The leaders of the various ministries didn't take it seriously, after all, disasters would not come to them.

This time, Yuan Xu pointed directly at them.

Moreover, the Xiongnu warrior who delivered the letter described to them how Yuan Xu single-handedly blocked the way of Wang Ting.

The leaders of the various tribes of the Xiongnu panicked, and quickly sent people to escort the plundered people and corresponding horses to the royal court.

Hu Chuquan convened many times, and all the ministries were shirking. Yuan Xu sent people and horses with a word.

At noon the next day, seeing the people and horses coming one after another, Hu Chuquan sighed in his heart.

The royal court was in decline, and all the ministries refused to follow the instructions. Instead, they needed Yuan Xu's threats before they were willing to get things done.

More and more people are gathering, and before sunset, all the people who should come have already arrived.

Hu Chuquan went to Yuan Xu's tent again.

Sitting outside the tent, seeing him coming, Yuan Xu stood up: "Did Dan send people and horses?"

"Exactly." Hu Chuquan replied: "All the people and horses are here, please take a count."

"Bring them here." Yuan Xu said to him.

Counting 10 people and hundreds of thousands of horses, so mighty and mighty, how can Yuan Xu count them all by himself?
After Hu Chuquan left, Yuan Xu took out the ghost piano and summoned the magic sound.

"Did my lord call me out because I couldn't count the numbers?" Moyin asked.

"Exactly." Yuan Xu replied, "There are so many people and horses, I can't count them all by myself."

"Level [-] summoning, although it is not directional, but the undead summoned by the lord can also help with liquidation." The magic voice replied, and then disappeared.

After she reminded, Yuan Xu played the ghost piano.

After a while, more than ten black shadows appeared in front of him.

Giving instructions to the dead spirit does not require him to speak, as long as he silently recites what needs to be done and fiddles with the ghost piano.

When Hu Chuquan led the Xiongnu warriors to drive the people and horses who were about to be sent back to the Central Plains, more than a dozen black shadows jumped into the torrent of people and horses.

Hu Chuquan and many Xiongnu warriors saw them.

Not sure what Yuan Xu was doing, the Huns could only pretend they didn't see anything.

"General, people and horses are here." Hu Chuquan came to Yuan Xu: "The population is more than [-], and the horses are more than [-]..."

"Is it all?" Yuan Xu asked.

Hu Chuquan replied: "Absolutely everything, I dare not hide anything from the general."

"I have ordered the dead souls to count, please wait a moment." Yuan Xu nodded.

It took a full hour for the dead soul to return to Yuan Xu.

Looking at the illusory dead soul, Hu Chuquan and the nearby Huns swallowed subconsciously.

The dead soul replied to the counted number of people.

Yuan Xu asked Hu Chuquan, "The population is 63 people, and the horses are 520. Is that the number?"

The population is accurate to the single digit, and it can be done in an hour with only a dozen or so dead souls.

Hu Chuquan looked astonished: "The dead souls driven by the general can be counted so quickly?"

"Of course." Yuan Xu replied: "The dead souls count the numbers. If they are not faster than humans, what's the use of them?"

"What the general said is true." Hu Chuquan agreed tremblingly, and then asked Yuan Xu: "Can we..."

"Where are the Huns going?" Yuan Xu asked.

"Go to the Western Regions." Hu Chuquan replied: "From now on, stay away from the Central Plains, and don't cause any trouble for the general."

"You do have good eyesight." Yuan Xu waved his hand: "Let's go."

Hearing his words, Hu Chuquan hurriedly beckoned his clansmen to leave as if he had received an amnesty.

The Huns left, and Yuan Xu faced hundreds of thousands of people who were about to return to the Central Plains alone.

With his hands on his hips, he shouted to the crowd: "Do you want to go back to the Central Plains?"

It has been more than ten years since he was taken captive to the Huns, and many people present have gotten used to the life of the Huns.

The number of people captured by the Huns back then was actually not so large.

Over the past ten years, they have given birth to many more, reaching more than [-].

In the Xiongnu, even though he lived as a slave, he still had a place to go after all.

A voice came from the crowd: "What can we do when we return to the Central Plains?"

"I knew you would ask this question." Yuan Xu replied: "Back to the Central Plains, I will give you land and help you build houses. From now on, you will never be enslaved by the Huns again!"

The crowd erupted.

What they worry about is that after returning to the Central Plains, they will have no fields to cultivate, no houses to live in, and they will only be reduced to other people's slaves.

Instead of that, it is better to stay in the Huns, at least the habitual life does not need to be changed too much.

"The Huns haven't gone far yet." Yuan Xu pointed to the Huns who were going away: "Those who are willing to be enslaved by them can follow. Those who don't want to be enslaved anymore and are willing to return to the Central Plains with me, from now on, follow me Walk."

Among the crowd, some were shaken, but more people did not leave, and they had no choice but to wait and see what happened.

No one followed the Xiongnu, Yuan Xu shouted again: "Since everyone is willing to return to the Central Plains with me, the two of us share a horse, get on the horse!"

People got on their horses one after another and followed Yuan Xu towards Juyongguan.

Only a day or two away from Juyongguan, Yuan Xu saw a group of people approaching ahead.

The group of people who greeted them, holding the banner of the Yuan family, was exactly Pang Tong and others who came to meet him.

Guo Jia and the others were also surprised when they saw a crowd of people heading towards Juyongguan.

First, an officer came on horseback. Seeing Yuan Xu, the officer hurriedly greeted him, turned around and left.

After a while, Guo Jia and others came forward to meet him.

"Sir, you really want people and horses here." Guo Jia said with a look of surprise.

"Since it's a forced debt, of course we have to use this method." Yuan Xu chuckled: "If I don't press fast, Hu Chuquan will never take it to heart. As long as he is given time to delay, I don't know what will happen when."
