The guards brought by the king of the Huns rode high-headed horses, surrounded by a procession of relatives, and there was more and more a coercive or condescending posture.

The trembling send-off mission, which was surrounded by trembling, smelled a strong smell of blood in its nose and listened to the screams of the Huns in their ears, as if a flock of weak lambs were about to enter the slaughterhouse.

People are the animals that are most easily infected by the environment, and this emotion instantly plunged the family sending team into an ominous pessimistic mood, Li Han was angry, with the unwillingness of the weak, he secretly swore that he must become strong as soon as possible.

If possible, one day, he, Li Han, will ride on a high horse, overlook these Huns who have put so much pressure on him, and let them know how ridiculous and stupid they are to put such a position against the Han people led by him Li Han today.

Walking across the pontoon bridge, there was a strong fortress, the gray-white exterior wall looked very strange, Li Han felt a bit like a lime wall, but he couldn't believe that the Huns would use lime.

In order to solve the confusion, he consciously walked against the wall, under the cover of the big sleeves, pulled out a hunting crossbow arrow mounted on the wrist and stabbed the wall, with great force, the result was only a small white spot, it seems, the sturdiness of this decorative material is not simple, if it is just lime, it can definitely be easily pierced.

This material attracted Li Han's great attention, and it happened that several horses quickly passed by him, and seeing that the Huns were all serving the fake Liu Bottle and getting off the carriage, no one noticed him, so he simply jumped off the horse and slowly surrounded the fortress with his hands behind his back to observe.

A succession of horse teams galloped past Li Han's side, that is, from the edge of the fortress, and the horses' hooves stepped on the ground and made a "dong dong" like a rapid sound, which sounded like the noisy drum beat before the opening of Peking Opera, but it was not like the down-to-earth sound of "getting it", which was weird!

The Huns rode on big horses, condescendingly and obliquely clinging to the fortress, the so-called "Holy Son" with a suspicious face. Feeling that the horse team could scare the Holy Son into dismounting against the wall, it was the pride of their group of grassland iron horsemen, and they roared one after another, deliberately galloping around the fortress and Li Han who was squeezed on the fortress by them, satisfying their strong pleasure of conquering this Holy Son who made them doubtful.

However, this stupid demonstration gave Li Han a more calm opportunity to observe, and he could already conclude that the foundation of the fortress was hollow, that is, the strong fortress had a pedestal, and the bottom of the pedestal was empty.

Oh, my God!

The Huns were able to build a strong fortress that could not be pierced by even sharp crossbow arrows on a pedestal, so how strong and load-bearing this pedestal must be!

It doesn't matter. Importantly, what is the purpose of this?

Don't......

How can this fortress be moved?

After Li Han came to this conclusion, the face presented in front of the Hun knight was even more like a coward.

I don't know what Liu Qi, the emperor's father-in-law, thought of, so that he would send his favorite son-in-law to the Xiongnu to "act cheaply", but Li Han traveled all the way, with his sharp eyes that were above the times, but he did discover many crises that the envoys of the Han Dynasty of the same era could not discover, such as sophisticated iron equipment, such as superb horse taming. Such as the abundance of minerals, such as the building materials of this strong fortress.

Even the Huns' method of stockpiling grain such as ghee cubes and beef pine mare's milk wine greatly exceeded Li Han's expectations.

The reason why the Huns did not dare to go far in the early war was that they were generally swept by the wind. They quickly withdrew after grabbing a ticket, because they could not carry heavy supplies, but on the way here, Li Han witnessed Huyan Tieji's guards take off their iron helmets. Pour in some dry and fluffy beef floss and soak it in boiling water for a nutritious beef broth.

The Huns also put the ghee cubes made of mare's milk into the gourd, poured water and hung them around their waists. After a day of galloping and sun exposure, the ghee block naturally fermented into the natural old yogurt of later generations, which is the prototype of mare's milk wine that the Huns said, with meat floss and old yogurt, it can definitely provide abundant nutrition for the Hun army, this thing is easy to carry, it is estimated that the next war, they will make great use of this reserve grain technology.

In all these seemingly ordinary phenomena, there are hidden advanced techniques that cannot be discovered by the Han Dynasty people who like to be unprovoked and contemptuous of other races, such as Zhang Fangda, who always holds his head high along the way, turning a blind eye to all these things that shocked Li Han.

If the Han Dynasty did not know the true strength of the Xiongnu, or looked at new things with old eyes, and still used the old policy of "soldiers and horses go first before moving grain and grass" to conquer the Xiongnu, it would obviously not have an advantage.

In Li Han's mind, all the advanced productive forces and high-end technologies that surpassed the Han Dynasty should not exist, and he decided to take advantage of the time of the Xiongnu to find out the mysteries of the Xiongnu's mining and smelting techniques as soon as possible, as well as the mysteries of building materials and construction techniques.

This is also crookedly in line with the content required by Liu Qi's edict, which is likely to appear on a whim.

And at this moment, Li Han's face was as pale as if he was frightened, not that he was frightened during the performance, but that he was really frightened!

It's just that it is not the fierceness of the iron cavalry that scares the Holy Son, but this mysterious fortress.

The hollowness of the fortress's foundation reminded Li Han of an article he had seen before crossing over, and he had a fierce argument with his father about the legend that the Huns had built a huge mobile castle, which recorded that the Huns were able to make thousands of domes and fortresses move at the same time, changing the location of the royal court at any time on the grassland.

At that time, Li Han thought that although the yurt could be dismantled and replaced, how could the earth-and-stone fortress be moved flat? For more than 100 years BC, the Xiongnu as the largest country in the world, when it was most prosperous, the population did not exceed two million, and the grassland did not have the exploration of mineral deposits, exquisite smelting technology, and even all kinds of craftsmen needed to borrow and ask the Han Dynasty for it, how could it be possible to build such a huge and exquisite mobile castle?

Li Han's father didn't think so, he thought that the Xiongnu people were blessed with unique natural resources, and when their ancestors came out of the mountains to dominate the grasslands, they understood that they would make blowers out of cowhide, cut down trees and light fires to melt away half of the mountains and open the way, how could there be no advanced productive forces and sophisticated skills?

Dad also ridiculed Li Han, like many arrogant Chinese, for blindly despising the nomads, but in fact, people can dominate one side for hundreds of years, and they definitely have advanced skills that the Han Dynasty cannot match.

At that time, Li Han was not convinced, and he couldn't figure out how the ethnic minorities who didn't read or read, and only knew how to ride horses and herd sheep all day long could have the skills to surpass the people of the Central Plains, but today it seems that he is indeed a frog at the bottom of the well, blinded by the superiority of the descendants of Yan and Huang, and underestimated this huge alien race!

"Li Han, my brother, what are you doing here?"

Suddenly, a shout came, and Li Han saw Yi Zhi rushing towards him in a hurry, and when he saw those knights surrounding Li Han to show off his martial arts, he frowned and waved his hand, and those people left with a roar.

"Your knights seem to think it's funny to trap me here." Li Han took out a silk handkerchief and said leisurely while wiping the dust on his face that was picked up by the horse's hooves.

Yi Zhixian was not good at being polite, he had something in his heart, so he grabbed Li Han and asked in a low voice: "I heard, the princess talking in the carriage is actually Liu Er that you promised to give me, right?" Have you changed your mind and want to give her to my brother? You're not enough brothers. ”

Li Han didn't expect Yi Zhixian's ears to be so sharp, Xiang Liu spoke in the carriage instead of the fake Liu Bottle, he recognized him, originally he didn't take advantage of Xiang Liu's idea, but because of Yi Zhixian's anxious look when he mentioned that Xiang Liu might be possessed by Da Danyu, he suddenly had an evil idea - to imitate a Diao Chan Xu Ye and let them have infighting!

For Xiang Liu, Li Han's feelings are quite complicated, from the beginning when he found out that Xiang Liu lied to him that she was also coerced by Chu Tiangong, and then "coerced" him to have to go on this trip to the Huns, he couldn't fall in love with this woman who was stunning but definitely not lovely.

He is not a beast who only thinks on the lower half of his body, he does things only on impulse and not on his brain, he is a man with wisdom, how can he be fascinated by Xiang Liu because he keeps saying that he will marry him sooner or later?

The reason why he came to this trip to the Huns was because Li Han wanted to come himself. You must know that Lu Dao has been recognized by the royal family in the capital, and the safety of his family has been entrusted to Liu Che, which can be described as extremely safe, then, his quiet making money in the capital to support his family seems to be quite boring, plus getting Fan Zeng's treasure poem in the dungeon of Chutian Palace, which inspired him to be full of pride in the Han Dynasty leisurely between the rivers and lakes, and followed the family envoy to take a trip to the Huns, which just met his wishes.

As for falling in love with Liu Bottle later, it was completely an unexpected gain, not because Xiang Liu thought that he was blinded by lust, so he was stupid to follow the north.

But Li Han has a kind of moral cultivation that men in later generations respect women and can't bear to see women sad, and Xiang Liu's recognition of him is also a little moved, and his feelings for this Nizi are quite complicated, he can't love but can't hate it, and he can't get rid of it completely, so he resigned himself to fate.

However, in the clouds, Xiang Liu pretended to be clever and wanted to provoke a jealous conflict between him and Yi Zhixian by his posture, which made Li Han really see through Xiang Liu's stupid and vain nature, and the little affection he had for her disappeared.

Otherwise, Li Han never disdained to take advantage of women's arrogance, and he definitely wouldn't have heard that Yi Zhixian was afraid that he would give Xiang Liu to the military ministers, and his first reaction was to learn from Situ Wang Yun in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
