Night is falling, and the temperature is gradually dropping under Guyan Mountain in summer.

Chang Hui tightened the brand-new clothes on his body.

This is a very simple linen coat, the bottom is very long, not as tight as the hufu.

However, Chang Hui was reluctant to let even a speck of dust fall on it.

only because the placket of its garment is right-handed.

Touching this simple placket, Chang Hui couldn't help but burst into tears.

"It's been eight years...... he muttered, "I can finally wear Han clothes again......"

"Brother Ziqing, ......"

"I'm going to pick you up!"

With that, he strode forward, following the man leading in front of him, all the way to the barracks in the distant light.

"Chang Gong, please wait for a while......" When he walked to a heavily guarded military tent, the leader turned around and said to Chang Hui: "Wait for the next official to go to serve Zhongjian Wenjun Zhang Gong!" ”

When Chang Hui heard this, he hurriedly stood up: "Your Excellency! ”

But a moment later, the door of the tent was opened.

A young general, dressed in armor and wearing a long sword around his waist, led more than a dozen generals and walked quickly.

"The foot is the deputy envoy of Su Ziqing, the old middle prison general?" The young general was pleasantly surprised: "I am the envoy of the festival ordered by the Son of Heaven, and Zhang Zizhong in the servant, on the orders of His Majesty, I am here to take Ming Gong home!" ”

When Chang Hui heard this, especially when he heard the word "go home", he finally couldn't help crying.

Eight years of wind and frost, eight years of hardship, and seventy-two months of bitterness finally came out at this moment.

However......

Chang Hui remembered the situation when he was out of the plug.

On the day of the mission's departure, there were more than 100 people.

They shouldered the mission of persuading the Xiongnu Shan Yu, letting Shan Yu go to the Han Dynasty, and quelling the war.

Today, however......

At the beginning, there were hundreds of heroes in the huge mission, but there were only more than a dozen people left.

Others, dead dead, missing missing.

Thinking of this, Chang Hui cried and said, "The villain implores the angel to send troops to Beihai to pick up the general who has been transferred to the middle prison!" ”

I heard the young lieutenant say, "Don't worry! ”

"Han loyal ministers, no one is missing!"

"Once the king is here, he will not let the loyal ministers and righteous men shed blood and tears!"

"This envoy has sent an envoy to tell the Xiongnu: order them to reply to this envoy within two days: whether to return all the Han subjects who have been captured, detained, and taken captive in the past!"

When Chang Hui heard this, he looked at Zhang Yue in disbelief and asked, "Serving Zhonggong, will the Huns agree?" ”

"Do they dare not agree?" Zhang Yue grinned lightly.

In the hands of the Huns, there were Han hostages.

Zhang Yue directly pinched the ** of the Huns!

So far, on both sides of the Gonglu River, the four main large sheep basins, have been controlled by the Han army.

This means that if the Xiongnu did not agree to Zhang Yue's conditions, they would obediently return the detained envoys, the captured border soldiers and merchants, and the captured Han soldiers.

Then, Zhang Yue will use a fire to burn all these sheep basins!

When the time comes, see if the Huns are bitter, or Zhang Yue is crying?

In addition, Zhang Yue also held hundreds of Xiongnu nobles in his hands.

It's not just the royal family of the Twin Clan.

The four major clans, as well as the descendants of the main Xiongnu tribes, had many captured by Zhang Yue.

As long as Zhang Yue showed a little willingness to exchange, even if the Xiongnu Shan Yu did not agree, the current leaders of the Twin Clan and the four major clans would press the head of Hulugu and force him to agree.

So, it's actually not that hard.

Zhang Yue knew that the Huns would definitely agree!

Therefore, in addition to returning all the Han subjects who were detained, captive, and captured.

Zhang Yue returned to the Xiongnu and prescribed a poison condition!

The content of the treaty is only one - within three days, the Huns must send 50,000 gold to Zhang Yue.

As a ransom for the Han army to withdraw and not to burn its sheep basin.

If the Xiongnu refused, then Zhang Yue would not only burn the sheep basin, but also set fire to all the pastures he saw, and implied that the tombs of the five Shan Yu mausoleums of the Huns, the five of Longcheng, were also in the hands of labor.

This condition, the reason why it is poison.

is because 50,000 gold is not a bottom line for the Huns.

And in terms of value, it is far lower than the capital and collateral in Zhang Yue's hands now.

Considering the credibility of the Han family, the Huns could fully accept and agree to this condition.

But the problem is that nowadays, there are only a handful of people who can call the shots!

So, whether the man agreed or not, waiting for the return of the order, there was only one fate waiting for him - to die on his back.

Agreed, lose power and humiliate the country, go to death!

If you don't agree, you will be stingy with 50,000 gold, and the sheep basin, pasture and ancestral tombs will be destroyed by the Han - go die!

Therefore, it is a poison.

If you send it out, you will definitely be able to kill a high-ranking nobleman with a very high status in the Huns and great authority.

In turn, it further stirred up the contradictions within the Xiongnu and further increased the differences between various factions in their country.

………………………………

More than 10,000 miles away.

The core of the Northern Western Regions Province, west of the Guizi Kingdom, in a basin surrounded by high mountains.

In later generations, it was the core of the famous Tarim Basin, and today it is the most developed area of agriculture and animal husbandry in the Western Regions.

Rushing rivers, rushing east from between the oases, emptied into distant lakes.

Under the crescent moon, the sages raised their heads and looked at the crescent moon.

Wearing a traditional Hun felt hat, he looked a little proud and complacent.

Beside him, the messenger from Wusun waited carefully.

"The king, the little envoy is here, it is on the order of my country's Kunmo, to congratulate the king, and finally got his wish, for the great Huns' Zuoxian king......" The envoy smiled and said: "My country's Kunmo, specially ordered me, Wusun Liang horses 100 gold, Kangju beauty 40, tribute and king, talk about respect......"

"The Fat King has a heart!" The sage replied with a shallow smile: "Please tell the Fat King that the Great Huns and Wusun are from the same source, and they have been a brotherly state for generations, and when this king ascends the throne, he will meet with Kunmo in the Tianshan Mountains to rebuild the friendship between Maodun Dadanyu and Laoshang Dadanyu and Wusun Kunmo......"

At that time, the heads of state of the two countries will swear an oath...... The Western Regions will be stable and united......"

When the messenger heard this, his face immediately became embarrassed.

Rebuild the relationship between Maudun, Lao Shang and Wusun?

Isn't that the relationship between a father and a son?

It took three generations for the Wusun people to get rid of the situation of being controlled and pinned down by the Huns, and you will be destroyed when you come to power?

Big face or big heart?

And, more importantly, last month, the king of the day did not have such an attitude.

At that time, he was conclusive - when this king repelled Hulugu, he would be brothers with Kun Moyo, and his words even revealed that he wanted to divide the Western Regions equally with Wusun.

Let Wusun control the western part of the Western Regions and the Green Mountains, and recognize Wusun's supremacy in the Western Regions.

The Xiongnu and Wusun jointly dominated, discussed, and decided the affairs of the Western Regions.

Now, as soon as the fox deer girl left, the sages tore off their original oath, and even wanted to ride on the heads of the Wusun people to show off their might!

This made this Wusun envoy feel humiliated.

It's just that I can't have a seizure at all, so I can only smile and remind the sages: "King, the name of my country's Kunmo is Weng Guimi, not the 'Fat King', and I ask the king to respect my country's Kunmo ......"

"Your envoy is too careful...... the sage smiled disappreciatively: "Who doesn't know that the countries of the Western Regions don't know that your country's Kun Mo is the 'Fat King'?" ”

He patted the latter on the shoulder and said gently, "Don't worry about it, envoy...... After returning home, please pay attention to your lord, lose weight ......"

"This man is too fat, and he will have trouble walking......"

"The country is too fat, and it won't be very good......"

The sage demonstratively puffed out his biceps and boasted: "There should still be some strength to make people respect......

He looked back and smiled: "What does the messenger think?" ”

When the envoy listened, his face was about to turn red, he clenched his fists tightly, looked at the sages, reluctantly bowed his head, and said: "The words of the king, the little envoy must convey them to my lord Kunmo, the son of the great white wolf, the Kunmo favored by the god of goshawks and crows!" ”

The sage laughed out loud, he raised his head, and said, "Then please ask the messenger to tell the fat king of your country—this king has ordered Zuo Dadu Lieutenant to close the passage between Qiuzi, Yanxu and Wei Li......"

At the same time, he has also ordered the right lieutenant to lead the army to the Luntai area to strengthen the vigilance of the Han people...... Please also ask your country not to challenge our bottom line......"

The sages of the "Han ......" looked at each other solemnly: "The enemy of the Great Huns!" ”

"Your country, don't provoke our country!"

"Otherwise......" the sage sneered.

The envoy could only bow his head and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, my country has never made a choice between Han and Hungary......"

"The Xiongnu Shan Yu, the brother of Kunmo in my country, the ...... of respect and love"

"Han Tianzi...... The male lord who my lord Kunmo admires also ......"

"Hehe......" The sage licked his lips, stared at the latter with murderous eyes, and said meaningfully: "Your country should do it for itself!" ”

Then he turned his head and walked forward with his close henchmen, leaving the Wusun messenger directly in place.

All the way to the river, the sage's face instantly became extremely difficult to look at.

"Wusun people! Wusun people! ”

"It will be a great trouble for this king's henchmen in the future!"

He blushed and clenched his fists, completely forgetting that not long ago, he was still Wusun Kunmo's best friend, an old friend of the Han Second Division's general, and even hinted at his willingness to share the Western Regions with Wusun equally!

Today, he is the king of the Xiongnu Zuoxian, the king of the day, and the future Shan Yu.

In particular, after the news of Hulugu's illness came, he had already put his ass in the position of Xiongnu Shan Yu.

So, everything changed.

Han's second division general is too strong!

Moreover, the elite soldiers under his command are like clouds, and there are countless fierce generals, which is not something that he and the Huns can challenge and defeat at present.

As a result, Wusun became his confidant.

In particular, he served as the king of the Japanese for many years and was well aware of the situation and situation in the Western Regions.

During the years when the Han and Hungarians fought for the Western Regions, the Wusun people rode the wall on both sides and gained great development space and speed.

Its army, its population, its livestock, is constantly expanding.

Wealth is also accumulating over time, gradually increasing.

Originally, Wusun was divided internally.

Between Kunmo and Xiao Kunmo, there is a political disagreement, the two forces are intrigued, and they are pinned and restrained by the Huns, and they can't jump.

However, after that little Kunmo went to the Han Dynasty last year, the main forces in his country finally reached an agreement on the Han and Hungarian issues.

Fat King Weng Guimi and Xiao Kun Mo Nimi officially put aside their past differences, and their domestic attitudes were reversed.

The pro-Han faction began to occupy an absolute advantage, and the pro-Xiongnu faction retreated one after another.

Especially in the past few months, because of the problems between him and Hulugu, the pro-Xiongnu faction in Wusun has suffered a devastating blow.

Kunmo's Lady Zuo and other Xiongnu (princesses) were all left out in the cold.

Yueshi Xihou and other powerful factions even killed and expelled the Huns around him.

At that time, the sages were afraid that they would not be able to protect themselves, so of course they did not dare to interfere, and even had to support these actions of the Wusun people.

And now......

The sages gritted their teeth.

In his heart, Wusun's priority has surpassed that of Han!

He even thought that he must first destroy, conquer, and defeat Wusun before he could compete with Han!

Otherwise, behind the buttocks, there is such a two-and-five-boy, and he won't sleep steadily!

The sages' left and right henchmen, listening to their master's words, also followed: "The king is wise! The king is wise! ”

The instantaneous change in the international situation immediately turned the two allies, who were originally dependent on each other and helped each other, turned against each other!

Of course, at present, for the time being, the sages lack strength, and there is no effective way to deter and attack the Wusun people.

The only way to weaken the Han-Uzbek ties is to close the roads that were once deliberately open and restrict the flow between Wusun and Han.

"By the way...... the sage turned his head and asked, "These days, have there been people from King Jiankun or King Ding Ling who have come to find this king?" ”

Everyone listened, looked at each other, and said, "Back to the king, there is no ...... for the time being."

The sage hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind and said, "Then send someone to take the initiative to contact!" ”

"King Ding Ling and King Jiankun are all indispensable talents of my Great Huns, and they must be encircled!"

"They cannot be missing from this king's future plans!"

After Yin Zhixian, the heart of every Xiongnu Shan Yu was extremely clear - if you want to survive and survive under the increasingly powerful and fierce attacks of the Han army, the help of the generals, nobles and civil servants from the Han Dynasty is indispensable!

Because......

Compared to the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu were too backward and primitive.

But......

If the sages think like this, the people around him may not be.

Especially the representatives of the four major clans who followed him and withstood the pressure of Fox Lugu.

They looked at each other, and then said, "The king, the king of Jiankun, and the ministers are naturally admired, but ...... Na Ding Zero King, the ministers are not convinced! ”

"King Ding Ling, who led the elite of Mobei, was easily defeated by a child of the Han Dynasty, and even affected Longcheng and the Holy Mountain...... Such a person, how can he be valued by the king? ”

The sage listened and shook his head, "You don't understand ......"

Of course, he also knew that he had to appease and win over these nobles who followed him, so he said, "Of course, you don't have to worry about ......."

"When this king ascends the throne, he will be rewarded for his deeds!"

"Shan Yuting's left and right generals, the left and right big bosses, the left and right bone marquis, and the left and right captains, it's time to change people......

"In addition, Shan Yuting's main captain of 10,000 horses should also be replaced......"

Such a straightforward promise immediately made everyone else let go of the mustard in their hearts, knelt down one after another, and kissed the grass at the feet of the sages: "Great Tu Lu, may the gods and the sun and the moon always favor you!" ”

The sages looked at these people and shook their heads in their hearts.

Although he finally survived the most difficult moment, he was even closer to the throne of his dreams.

However, the more this happened, the more frightened he felt.

Because, he doesn't know how he will face the empire in the south that is getting stronger and stronger in the future!

The nightmare of the Huns, the central country feared by the people who drew the bow!

This time, a partial division of the Han people, taking advantage of the gap in the westward expedition of the main force of the Xiongnu, broke through the entire Gonglu Shui, and went straight to Longcheng and Wolf Juxu Mountain.

Next time, if you give them another chance.

I'm afraid the Huns are about to fall into the abyss of national extinction!

What frightened the sages even more was that the commander of the Han Dynasty was said to be less than twenty years old this year.

It is said that the age is not much different from that of the man named 'Champion Hou', when he swept Hexi, single-handedly subdued the two major tribes of Hun evil and Hugh Tu, and let tens of thousands of Hun cavalry unarm.

"Han, why are there so many heroes and heroes...... the sages sighed with emotion: "And I, the Huns, have been on the big single since they were old, but one generation is not as good as the next?" ”

And this is the problem that he must face and solve after he takes office!

That young man, after this battle, will definitely take power!

It will definitely become a big problem for him, and even a mortal threat!
