Chapter 589: Maudun's Intentions
Mao Dun's words made the people around him, especially Touman, a little unhappy.
"Maudun, are you sure they're lying?" Touman asked.
"Father." Mao Dun said, "Whether it's true or not, we have to treat them as if they were lying and when they have already surrendered to Great Qin."
Otherwise, let the soldiers know that Anan was killed so easily, and the consequences would be very serious. ”
Touman frowned slightly and said, "But that's hundreds of lives." ”
"So what." Mao Dun said casually, "Compared to the army of 200,000, a few hundred people are nothing.
Father, for the sake of the overall situation, you should give the order. ”
"No, I will never allow you to disregard people's lives without permission." Touman said in a deep voice, "What's more, it's still my Hun warrior." ”
"Father." Mao Dun said in a deep voice, "They will destroy the morale of the army that has been accumulated with great difficulty, and without morale, we can only be beaten passively." ”
"Then lock them up." Touman said.
Mao Dun thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, I'll go and detain them myself." ”
Subsequently, regardless of whether Touman agreed or not, he directly dragged the soldiers of Tongchuan to the place where the hundreds of deserters came.
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." When hundreds of deserters saw Maudun, they knelt down and saluted.
Mao Dun bowed his head and said, "No need to be polite, get up." ”
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie." The crowd stood up.
Mao Dun said, "You tell me, what are Qin An's recruits like? How were you defeated by them, and how did you retreat?
I want you to tell me everything that happened. ”
"Yes, Prince." One of the soldiers said.
His official position seemed to be relatively large, as if he were a centurion, and he told everything about the cause and effect of the matter.
It's just that in the end, the Mo Dao soldiers didn't say anything about the use of bows and crossbows, the reason is very simple, everyone is desperately running forward, how can they have time to look back and see what happened behind?
But all who turned their heads remained there.
After Mao Dun listened, he learned about the weapons of the Mo Dao soldiers, and the other party didn't know how to describe them, so he asked the soldiers to draw them.
When everything was understood, Maudon spoke again: "Brothers, thank you for telling me everything.
I have bad news for you, too. ”
The centurion suddenly felt that something bad was happening, and immediately asked, "May I ask the prince." Don't know what bad news it is? ”
"Shan Yu is afraid that you will spread the news of Anan's death and what happened at the border just now, which will affect the morale of the army.
Therefore I am commanded to deal with you. ”
"What?"
The centurion and a group of other deserters were shocked.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you want to kill us?" The centurion looked at Maudon warily.
Mao Dun sighed and said, "It's not that I'm going to kill you, but I'm just going to kill you." ”
"The Prince's Palace...... Woo...... You ......" As soon as the herald on the side spoke, before he could finish his words, he was beheaded by Mao Dun on the side, and when he died, his eyes widened, and he looked completely dead.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what are you ......" The centurion was a little confused, and looked at Mao Dun suspiciously.
The other deserters also looked at Mao Dun with puzzled expressions.
Mao Dun immediately explained: "He was sent by Shan Yu to monitor me, and Shan Yu ordered me to kill you, but I can't bear it, you are all warriors of the Huns, and if you want to die, you can only die on the battlefield, how can you die in the hands of our own people."
So, I'm going to let you go. ”
"Thank you, Prince." The centurion and others knelt down to thank them.
Mao Dun immediately helped them up and said, "After you leave here, is there any other place to go?" ”
Everyone suddenly showed embarrassment, they had all just come back, where else could they go except to follow Shan Yu?
The centurion suddenly said, "Your Highness the Prince, why don't you let us follow you." ”
"Follow me?" Mao Dun said in surprise, "Once you follow me, Shan Yu will definitely know that I have disobeyed his will, and then not only you will be in trouble, but I will also be in trouble." ”
"His Royal Highness the Prince." The centurion said, "We are willing to honor you, and we are only willing to obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
If Shan Yu is looking for trouble with His Royal Highness the Prince, we will help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince kill Shan Yu. ”
"Yes, kill Shan Yu."
"Kill Shan Yu."
For a while, the crowd was furious, and they all said that they wanted to kill Shan Yu, which made Mao Dun look embarrassed, but his heart became more and more excited.
The centurion didn't know what Mao Dun was thinking, and when he saw that he was embarrassed, he immediately said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, if you have any concerns, you can arrange for us to go to the camp in Shan Yu now, and we can help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince solve the trouble now." ”
Mao Dun immediately refused: "No, absolutely not." Now that our Huns have finally gathered, if they die at this time, they will definitely be in chaos again, and when the time comes, the Qin army will take advantage of it, then it will be too late for us to regret it. ”
"Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince planning to watch us die?" The centurion asked again.
The other deserters looked at Maudun one after another, their eyes full of pleading and the desire to survive.
Maudun walked up from side to side, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Okay, you follow me, but you leave the barracks now, and then go to my barracks, and take my sign and say that you are new to joining."
As for other things, don't mention anything, don't mention anything, especially Anan's death and the matter of the Qin army. ”
"No." The centurion replied.
"However, when you leave the barracks, you must tie me up and knock me out as if you had escaped, this is the tiger talisman, you take it."
Afterwards, Maudun gave the centurion a tiger talisman that could mobilize his personal guards.
Now he doesn't have many personal guards, and he urgently needs manpower, and although the centurion's group is a deserter, they are also Hun warriors, and they are by no means ambiguous in fighting.
It's just that they may really be frightened by the Qin army's strong combat power.
As long as they can overcome this fear, they can still become a powerful Hun warrior, not to mention that Mao Dun is really short of manpower, and finally decides to take the risk of taking them under his command.
After the centurion took the tiger talisman, he said to Mao Dun: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you have not offended your humble position. ”
After saying that, he slapped Maudon on the neck and had him tied up.
Then there was a scene where the centurion and hundreds of other Hun cavalry broke through and left the barracks.
The matter was quickly reported to Touman.
Touman immediately led a group of people to the camp where the soldiers were being held, only to find that the herald had been killed and Maudon had been tied up.
"Wake up the prince." Touman said immediately.
Someone then untied Maudun's rope and woke him up.
Touman immediately came to Maudun and asked, "What happened?" ”
