The Xianbei nobles, led by the Putou brothers to reach a consensus, were not slow, and the leaders of the various tribes pacified the people, recruited warriors, and soon rearmed an army of more than 30,000 in Danhan Mountain. And the Xianbei warriors in the central and eastern parts of the country have been mobilized to gather together in a steady stream. Danhanshan's strength continued to strengthen, declaring to the Xiongnu his determination to resist foreign enemies.

More than 300 miles west of Danhan Mountain, the temporary camp of the Hun army, Liu Yuan listened to the detailed report with a thoughtful expression. Over the years, many shadows have been sent to Xianbei one after another, assassinating and setting off turmoil, and investigating Xianbei news.

Liu Yuan has always had a premonition about the news from Xianbei Shan Yuting, but now that he really learned about the actions over there, he was still disappointed. "Stand down!" Seeing the spy kneeling in front of him, he commanded.

Originally, Liu Yuan's plan was that if the chaos on the side of Danhan Mountain continued, the Xiongnu army that had finished recuperating would not hesitate at all. Liu Yuan will lead the army, cross the revenge water and go straight to Danhan Mountain, and then give Xianbei a heavy blow. Even if you can't fight and defeat Xianbei, you will have to completely destroy its royal court.

But now, under the threat of his own strong intervention, Pu Tou and the others forcibly pressed the internal contradictions and concentrated their forces to deal with themselves, and Liu Yuan could imagine the resistance that could be met by rashly attacking. Liu Yuan was not very worried about the tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry that were temporarily armed, but there were still hundreds of thousands of Xianbei tribesmen behind Danhan Mountain, and they should not be taken lightly.

On a thousand-mile expedition, his 30,000 Hun cavalry could not resist the "crowd tactics" of the Xianbei people. Even if he can win in the end, how many elite knights will be left of the elite knights he has worked hard for several years, and how to end it with heavy losses, losing both sides is not the result he wants to see.

sighed silently, this is the heritage of Xianbei, Tanshi Huai has been operating hard for decades, and now it has left too valuable wealth for future generations. Helian and Putou lost so much strength, coupled with the internal friction of the turmoil over the years, they quickly recruited tens of thousands of troops.

If this is a Hun, it will definitely hurt the bones, and it may even collapse. Guanghe was attacked by Dong Zhuo in Xihe in the third year, and Liu Yuan directly lost thousands of troops, which made Liu Yuan feel painful, and it took a long time to recover his strength.

Thinking about this, Liu Yuan was envious, and at the same time, his ambition for Xianbei became even more intense. The desire to annex Xianbei and become the overlord of the steppe is even more fervent. The world is in contention, population is the foundation, as long as there are people, land, cities, food, and troops, these will all be there, Liu Yuan is very sober-minded.

No matter how vigorous the ambition in my heart is to annex Xianbei, the reality is that it cannot be achieved overnight. Liu Yuan could only suppress his ambitions, calm himself down, and seriously conceive of his future strategy for Xianbei.

The wind is light and the clouds are light, the blue sky is thousands of miles, and the scenery of Monan is beautiful. A heavy rain has just passed, and the wind is a little wet, slowly blowing, revealing coolness.

The Xiongnu camp was very lively, shrouded in noisy sounds, Liu Yuan rode lightly, patrolled the camp, breathing fresh air. The horse's hooves trampled lightly, splashing patches of grass clippings. The sound of the water rang in my ears, and the horses' hooves stepped on it, leaving a row of shallow pits and overflowing a layer of rainwater.

A few showers of heavy rain left the grass wet and muddy. The time is not with me, Liu Yuan sighed in his heart, it was muddy after the rain, and it was not suitable for cavalry combat. What's more, the Hun army was not all equipped with farriers like the guards, and they ran frequently, which caused too much damage to the horses.

A splashing sound came, attracting Liu Yuan's attention, and when he turned his head, he saw that a young Hun soldier was working his war horse. Rolling up his sleeves and carefully removing the mud from the horse, the horse let out a hissing of enjoyment.

Liu Yuan became interested, rode his horse closer, and the soldier immediately noticed. Seeing Da Shan Yu coming towards him, he immediately stopped his movements and knelt down with some Xiongnu warriors around him: "Meet Da Shan Yu!" ”

"Which tribe?"

"Tu Ge...... No, the Northern Huns, under the command of Lord Chiyi! ”

"How old are you?" Looking at the immature warrior in front of him, Liu Yuan asked.

"Seventeen!" A little cramped, the soldier's face was nervous, and he replied in a trembling voice.

"Seventeen!" Liu Yuan sighed with emotion. At this age, he went out with his own expedition and was bloody on the battlefield, and there were many such young people in the army at this time.

"The battlefield is cruel, have you ever been afraid?"

"Don't be afraid, follow Da Danyu, we are invincible!" Hearing this, the young man's face showed a hint of admiration: "Da Shan Yu has already led the army to the expedition when he is younger!" ”

"Oh?" Seeing the state of the young soldier, Liu Yuan seemed to be very satisfied, it seems that his deification in the Xiongnu tribe has been very effective in these years, as can be seen from his expression.

A smile appeared on his face: "It is worthy of being a warrior of my Huns, a good man, work hard, and strive to become a ten-commander, centurion, and thousand-commander!" After encouraging him, Liu Yuan left.

Looking at Liu Yuan's distant back, it was not until he was covered by the tent that the young man got up and exhaled. "Boy, you're so lucky that you can talk to Da Shan Yu!" An elderly soldier next to him spoke, his tone revealing a sourness.

Ignoring it, the young man looked very excited, and Da Shan Yu actually encouraged himself personally. In the future, he must fight hard to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and become a ten-commander, centurion, and thousand-commander, Da Shan Yu said so, and at this time he suddenly wanted to fight Xianbei in his heart.

In Liu Yuan's big tent, he convened the central generals to discuss the matter, and after some time here, Liu Yuan finally made a decision on the next move of the Xiongnu. After sweeping the generals in the tent, it can be regarded as a wealth of talents, several Huns have upper-class nobles in the ranks, and some have been digested before slaughtering each person.

He said in a deep voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, there is news from Xianbei, Putou and the others have reached an agreement, and they have raised tens of thousands of troops to prepare to deal with our army. And the strength of Danhan Mountain is still being strengthened, I don't know what to think about the next actions of our army? ”

No one spoke, almost everyone knew that Da Shan Yu was afraid that he had already made a decision, and for them, he just had to wait for orders. It seems that he suppressed them too ruthlessly, Liu Yuan knew in his heart that in front of him, there were few opportunities for these generals to perform in decision-making.

There was some emotion in his heart, Liu Yuan still understood the disadvantages of his own words for a long time. Looking at Xu Bu Chiyi, it was obvious that he wanted him to speak.

"Da Danyu, our army's labor expedition has lasted nearly two months, and the consumption is huge, although the morale of the soldiers is still high, but they are also exhausted. Although the grain and grass were supplemented by plundering the Xianbei tribe, the consumption of ordnance and arrows was huge. The strength on the side of Danhan Mountain still exists, and it cannot be destroyed suddenly, and our army still has tens of thousands of Xianbei people who are divided into troops to guard the prisoners, and the military strength is even more insufficient. The rainy season has not yet passed, and it is close to the cold winter, the situation is unfavorable to me, and there is still a threat of Xianbei in the west in the west. Subu Chiyi calmly spoke his thoughts.

After listening to Xu Bu Chiyi's narration, Liu Yuan showed a smile on his face, which was deeply in line with his thoughts. With a straight face, he said slowly: "What Chi Yi said is reasonable, the situation in our army really can't be dragged on any longer!" Tell the soldiers, pack up the packing materials, and our army will ..... tomorrow"

Then he spit out two words: "Withdraw the troops!" ”

"Also, release Helian. After being Xianbei Shan Yu for so many years, I believe that he still has some power in Xianbei, and he will never be uprooted by Putou and others. Let Helian go back and add another fire to Xianbei! When the tent was dispersed, Liu Yuan suddenly commanded in a cold voice, his eyes flashing with sinister and cunning.
