Chapter 522 The Shrinking Huns

Chapter 522 At the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, there is a huge pasture, because there are high mountains blocking the cold air flow in the northwest, so even in winter, you can raise livestock here.

And at the bottom of the valley between the Tianshan Mountains and the Altai Mountains, it is blessed with unique weather. When Touman was still there, he led the Huns to find this place and snatched it from Loulan.

If it weren't for the Zhu Party in the desert, the Xiongnu army would have even driven straight into the Loulan Kingdom. Now, the Qin army is invincible on the grassland, coupled with Donghu's reluctance to send troops, and winter is coming, Mao Dun can only avoid its edge and bring his people here.

On the Tianshan Mountains, it has snowed, but the valley bottom is still lush with branches and leaves, and the fresh grass is fat. It's just that this land is too small, and for the grassland people, the feeling of not galloping is very uncomfortable.

Now the two major forces on the grassland are shrinking here, and as long as the contradictions between them are not eliminated for a day, the friction between the big and the small will not stop.

"Big order! The people of Antulu are stirring up trouble again! ”

"Big order! Let me go pack up these little bits in Anturlu! It's all on top of us! ”

"Da Danyu, now that Antulu has suffered heavy losses, it is a good time to make a move, swallowing Antulu's power, after we integrate our strength, we will definitely be able to kill it back!" Maudun's men are all gearing up, and they are all trying to persuade Maudun to get rid of Anturu.

But Maudun was unusually calm at this time, because Maudon knew that he couldn't do anything to Antulu just yet.

Now that the entire Huns are almost cowering here, the morale of the people below has fallen to the freezing point, and if they do something to Antulu at this time, the people below will lose control.

Mao Dun got up and said: "Okay, now is not the time to do it, I want to fight, we really don't want to go back to the grassland, I will talk to Antulu about this matter, as long as this winter is over." A group of subordinates, you look at me, I look at you, and finally said in unison: "Yes, Da Danyu." "Actually, Antulu's side is also uncomfortable, because Antulu's subordinates reported that it was the people who were looking for trouble, and he was the injured party.

Antulu also did not intend to expand the situation, and after calming the people under him, he was ready to talk to Maudun.

The two thought of going together, and it was naturally a matter of course. Maudun and Antulu agreed to meet on the mountainside to discuss matters between the two tribes.

The men were all guarding from a distance, and the two of them sat on a boulder like old friends and looked at the valley.

"Antulu, it seems that our people are not very well-behaved." Maudon was the first to speak.

Antulu sneered and said, "You and I haven't panicked yet, but these people below are panicking." ”

"Maudun." Anturlu looked at Maudon and said, "After coming here, have you ever thought about getting rid of me?" Mao Dun said with a smile: "I want to have a breath of time, but I know that you can't die, if you die, we can only exhaust here, and then we really can't go back to the grassland." Antulu smiled: "If we really fight here, the rest of the people will survive well here." Mao Dun said: "You don't have to test me, if it really comes to that time, even if the Qin people don't come, Loulan in the south will come." ”

"What we need most now is not infighting, but to preserve our strength, otherwise whether it is the Qin people or the Loulan people, they will attack us."

"Antulu, those disobedient guys under you and me, although we can't kill them, let's hang them away, otherwise we will really make a move, and you and I can't stop it."

"It's nature." Anturlu said. Maudun said, "Is there enough grain and grass for you?" If that's not enough, I can help. ”

"That's enough, thank you." Anturlu said with his head bowed. The contradiction between Maudun and Antulu actually exceeds the contradiction between Haji and Maudun, after all, Antulu has used Maudun.

But in the face of justice, Antulu can often make compromises, and in the face of the chaos of the grassland, Antulu will also withdraw to preserve the strength of the grassland.

This may have Antulu's selfish intention of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, but it is undeniable that if Antulu hadn't withdrawn and reduced Maoton's casualties, I am afraid that this time the Qin army attacked, Maodun would not be able to bring his clansmen here.

Maudun actually admired Antulu in his heart, but he was also more afraid. However, while the two were discussing, on the Tianshan Mountain, there were more than a dozen people lying on their stomachs between the rocks, all holding binoculars, motionless and observing the situation at the bottom of the mountain.

The white tents of the Huns are very obvious at the bottom of the mountain, and there are at least two or three hundred thousand people in the tents that stretch for thousands of miles.

At this time, the Qin army was only separated by a mountain from the Xiongnu army, and was stationed in the southeast corner of the Tianshan Mountains. The area where the Qin army was stationed still enjoyed the benefits brought by the mountains, although the weather was slightly cold, but the cold wind was not violent.

After Qin Xi led his troops here, he personally led people to climb the mountain to find the whereabouts of the Xiongnu army, and finally found the traces of the Xiongnu army on the northern slope of the Tianshan Mountains.

However, Qin Xi was not in a hurry to send troops, after all, the Hun army came here first, and he didn't know what arrangements Maudun would have, and the risk of rash attack was too great.

Qin Xi plans to wait, first find out the situation of the Xiongnu army in secret, and at the same time, when Zarelina returns, maybe he can bring back the army of Loulan.

That's right, Qin Xi didn't really hope that Zarelina could let Loulan send troops, the reason why she agreed to Zarelina Qin Yun Loulan to call reinforcements was just that Qin Xi didn't want Zarelina to be sad, after all, this was the first time she took the initiative to share her worries.

And in Qin Xi's future planning, Loulan in the Western Regions will also be the land of Great Qin, and it is better for Loulan not to send troops, without affection, there will be no guilt.

The scouts had returned, and had brought back all the news.

"Your Highness, it seems that the contradiction between the Antulu tribe and the Maodun tribe still exists, and they have all retreated here, and there are still contradictions." Wang Li said with a smile.

Qin Xi nodded and said, "This is a good thing, as long as there is a contradiction between them, but the contradiction intensifies, our army will be able to save a lot of trouble." ”

"Now that the terrain over there has been figured out, can the Black Dragoon charge?" Wang Ben asked.

"Absolutely! As long as the black dragoon increases its speed from the periphery, it can crush the defense of the Hun army in one fell swoop. Zhao Yi said confidently.

Wang Ben said: "Your Highness, if our army wants to completely annihilate the Xiongnu army, I am afraid that we must divide our troops to block the west, otherwise the Xiongnu army is likely to flee westward." Qin Xi shook his head and said, "It can't be stopped, unless there are another 200,000 troops, it can't be stopped." ”

"Why don't we wait for General Meng to lead the troops over." Zhao Yi said. At this time, the guard walked in and said, "Your Highness! The crown princess is back. Qin Xi dropped the wooden stick in his hand and said, "Let's get here first, I'll learn about the situation in Loulan before making plans." ”

"No!"
