Chapter 266: New Ideas
Chapter 266
The news of Natulu's killing and the surprise attack of the rear army by the Qin army soon reached Mao Dun's ears, and Mao Dun was immediately angry.
Mao Dun was one of his most trusted subordinates, but he didn't expect to die in battle before he officially started a war with the Qin army!
However, Mao Dun didn't have time to care about this, and personally took his men and horses to the rear army, but after arriving at the rear army, the Qin army ran away again, and this time he burned a lot of his supplies.
Extremely angry, Mao Dun slashed to death one of the leaders of the rear army, and lost so many supplies, which made the already not rich Xiongnu army even worse.
Antulu said on the side: "Da Danyu, the loss of this batch of grain and grass is likely to cause instability in the army's morale, I have a proposal." โ
"Say!" Maudun said through gritted teeth.
Antulu said: "Disperse the army, approach the border of the Qin, and finally assemble at the border of the Qin. โ
"No way!" Hagen, who rushed over, said: "My 300,000 troops dare to attack the Qin army here, if they are scattered, I am afraid that the Qin army will eat it." At present, our army can only speed up the march and resist the Qin border as soon as possible, so that I can't buy this Qin army. โ
Mao Dun said angrily: "What's the matter with the scouts who were discharged, didn't they all find the Qin army?" Check it out for me! Is there a fine work of the Qin army in the scouts! โ
"Da Danyu, what should I do next?" Antulu asked.
Mao Dun said with a cold face: "Pass the order!" The whole army is moving faster! Hagen, this time the Qin army appears again, if you don't catch up, don't blame Ben Danyu for not showing you mercy! โ
"Yes! Big orders are at ease! Hagen will definitely give it his all! Hagen clenched his fists and said.
Before leaving, Antulu glanced at Hagen with a sneer. Antulu is in charge of the scout's business, the scout didn't find out about Qin Jun, it was his responsibility, and now Maudun just gave yourself a warning, but he threw the matter to Hagen, which is obviously Antulu's protection.
Hagen naturally knew it, but Hagen was not dissatisfied with this, but was happy, because if this continued, Maudun would only need himself more and more, and he would be more and more secure.
And Mao Dun didn't think about these at all at this time, and now Mao Dun has a headache with the military's heart.
These two attacks by the Qin army, as well as the death of the forward general Natulu, have dealt a great blow to the morale of the army, and if they can't quickly break through the defense line of the Qin army, their position will also be shaken.
If there is anyone who is most angry now besides Qin Jun, it is the Sand Tribe.
The Sand tribe said that they would send troops south, but there is no trace of them until now.
If you go to the Sand Tribe, you have the best horses on the grassland, the strongest warriors on the grassland, and the best equipment on the grassland, but you haven't seen any trace of the Sand tribe until now.
In fact, it wasn't just Mao Dun who was looking for the Sand Tribe, Qin Xi was also looking for the Sand Tribe.
The prestige of the Sand tribe is not only among the Huns, but also deters the Donghu people, so that the Donghu people dare not act rashly.
As long as the Sand tribe appears, Qin Xi does not need to exterminate the Sand tribe, as long as the Sand tribe is dragged down, Donghu can send troops.
Of course, Qin Xi would not be able to drag the Sand tribe for the sake of Donghu, just to prove that they fought with the Sand tribe.

After Qin Xi shook off the pursuers behind him, he turned his head and went to make peace with Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi was relieved to see Qin Xi return safely.
Zhao Yi threw a small round tube back to Qin Xi and said, "My lord, what kind of telescope are yours, we can see them clearly before the enemy sees us dozens of miles away." โ
Qin Xi caught the simple monocular and said, "You kid be careful, there is glass in here, if it is broken, it will not be used." Then he took it back into the bamboo tube, only to see that the bamboo tube was still stuffed with cotton wool.
Zhao Yi said: "My lord, this time our army burned a lot of grain and grass of the Huns, which will definitely affect the military morale of the Huns, what should we do next?" โ
Qin Xi thrust the spear into the ground and said, "Tell me what you think." โ
Zhao Yi said: "The last general estimates that the Huns may speed up their march, and they will not even entangle with our army too much, and our next raids may not have much effect." โ
Qin Xi nodded and said, "Then what do you think we should do next?" โ
Zhao Yi thought for a while and said, "The last general thinks that it is too early to go deep into the grassland at this time, so it is better for our army to rush to the front of the Xiongnu army to set traps." โ
"The Hun army is in a hurry, and there will definitely not be too much defense against the road ahead, but the last general doesn't know how to let the Hun army go to our trap, after all, in the grassland, there is basically no road."
Qin Xi smiled: "It's very simple, we just build a road for them." โ
"Building roads?" Zhao Yi looked at Qin Xi with some disbelief.
Qin Xi said: "Yes, it is to build roads, build roads on the grassland, that is too simple." โ
"The whole army rests for a while, and then let's set off, go around to the front of the Hun army as soon as possible, the pits we rest in the evening are the best traps." Qin Xi said.
In a few moments, the army of five thousand set out again.
As for the other 1,000 men, they were sent to fetch supplies.
In fact, Qin Xi had already planned it when he came to the border, so he arranged for some merchants to enter the grassland through Donghu, and they brought all the grain and grass needed by the army.
As long as the wolf rider detached a thousand men and horses, he went to the grassland near Donghu to meet these merchants, and he could stay for seven days of grain and grass for the wolf rider each time, because even in this era, as long as it was not snowing, the grass of the grassland could still be eaten by the war horses.
The time spent on a wolf light ride to get supplies is about a day and a half, and it can be said that the efficiency is still very high, but the food will not be too good.
This time, it was the Qianfu Elder Zhu brought by Qin Xi from Xianyang who went to get the supplies, Lao Zhu was the oldest in the whole army and the most stable in his work, which made Qin Xi very relieved.
After Lao Zhu came to the Donghu tribe disguised by merchants, he asked people to quickly replenish supplies.
Due to the cooperation with Donghu, the tribe disguised by the merchants was also protected by the army sent by the Donghu people, but Lao Zhu still maintained a high vigilance against these Donghu people.
Whenever the people of Donghu approached the running wolf light horse, Lao Zhu would drive the people away, after all, the horseshoe stirrup and the improved saddle on the war horse were all the secrets of Great Qin.
A businessman suddenly found Lao Zhu and said, "My lord, Xianyang sent a letter quickly, and asked your lord to hand it over to Lord Qin Xi." โ
Lao Zhu took the letter and said, "Well, I will hand it over to the Overseer in person." Lao Zhu said and put the letter away.
Lao Zhu said: "According to the instructions of the adults, after replenishing the grain and grass this time, after you return to Donghu to replenish the supplies, you must move at least 100 miles to the north. โ
"Yes, my lord." The merchant arched his hand.
