Chapter 584: Clever Schemes
On the second day after the Qin envoys crossed the river and returned, the Qin army originally stationed along the south of the river began to set off, leaving only a part of the army stationed at the communication points along the river to continue to blockade the south bank of the river.
The scouts of the Huns saw this scene on the north bank of the river, and looked at the black army that could not be seen at a glance and began to move south, their faces were excited, and after leaving some people to watch, the rest of the scouts returned to the camp on horseback to report the news.
"The army of the Qin people began to retreat south?"
"Da Dan Yu is right, Qin Jun really can't hold on!"
In the king's tent alone, all the Xiongnu nobles were overjoyed when they heard the news.
After Li Shiqi left, Tou Manshan Yu once told everyone that the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Qin State were outside, and they needed to consume a lot of grain and grass every day, and there were deserts, Gobi and other treacherous terrain south of the river, and road transportation was very difficult, and it was absolutely impossible for the Qin army to last.
Therefore, regardless of whether the Xiongnu agreed to the Qin people's deal or not, the Qin army would retreat, and they did not need to worry at all at this point.
Now everything is said by Tou Mandan, so that his prestige is once again established among the Xiongnu nobles.
Coupled with the fact that he had seen through the Qin people's trading conspiracy before, even Wuluxu, who was an oppositionist, bowed deeply to Touman Shan Yu
This made Tou Manshan very proud.
And when people are proud, they are prone to ideas.
At this moment, Tou Manshan Yu had a bold idea in his heart.
He glanced at the nobles in the tent and said, "For the Qin people in Senei, cattle, sheep and horses are very precious materials, far more valuable than slaves, so before they withdraw to Senei, they will definitely send someone to escort our people here in exchange for cattle and horses. When the time comes, we can make a good deal with them, exchange the people back, and then ......"
At this point, Tou Manshan Yu showed a cruel smile: "We will raid their trading army, snatch back the cattle and horses, and by the way, rob the weapons and armor of the Qin people, turn all those Qin people into our slaves, and escort them back to the north of the river to graze for us!" ”
There was a dead silence in the king's tent.
The Xiongnu nobles looked at each other, but they didn't expect Da Dan Yu to come up with this idea of turning his face with the Qin people.
Hu Yanyu inexplicably remembered Li Shiqi's accusations and the fact that he instructed the Qin people to trade in good faith, and couldn't help but say: "Da Danyu, let's talk about the honest transaction with the Qin people, isn't it okay to do this?" ”
Tou Manshan Yu sneered: "What's wrong, let's exchange cattle and sheep for the clansmen in the hands of the Qin army, this Shan Yu will never make trouble in this matter, the transaction will definitely be completed smoothly, why is it dishonest?" We can wait until the deal is done before we do it. ”
The corners of Hu Yanyu's mouth twitched, but he thought about it, and what Da Shan Yu said made sense.
There is no doubt that the Xiongnu and the Qin people traded in good faith.
After the transaction, it is another matter to grab it, and the two have nothing to do with it.
Wulu was humbly worried that doing so would make him lose the opportunity to take back Henan, so he immediately persuaded: "Da Dan is more cautious." The Qin army dispatched hundreds of thousands of people this time, and even the Yue clan was not their opponent, the Yue clan's Marquis was captured and killed, and the tribe became a prisoner of the Qin people, which shows the strength of the Qin army. ”
"Now the Qin army is about to withdraw to Sene, and when they leave, we can take back the land south of the river without much effort, there is no need to provoke them again, in case it angers the Qin army, what should Zhao Tuo do if he transfers his troops and horses and comes to attack us?"
As soon as Wuluxu said this, Yi Hanye and other Xiongnu nobles thought of the strength of the Qin army, and even the Yue clan was overthrown by the Qin people, so they were naturally afraid and followed the persuasion.
Tou Manshan Yu smiled and looked at the persuaded Xiongnu nobles with disdain.
"The wolves of the steppe, when did they become so cowardly."
Tou Manshan Yu stood up, walked to the door of the tent in the eyes of everyone, and said: "What are you afraid of, even if I rob the army sent by Zhao Tuo to trade, rob the weapons and equipment of the Qin army, cattle, sheep and livestock, and turn all this army into slaves, he Zhao Tuo will not dare to attack us, so he can only roll back to the city in disgrace." Do you know why? Look outside! ”
Tou Manshan Yu stretched out his hand, pointed to the large golden grassland outside the tent, and shouted, "Have you seen it! The grass is withering, the flowers are withering, and it won't be long before the snow falls on the land, and winter is coming. ”
"Zhao Tuo, this little cub is very cunning, even if we rob the Qin army, with his treacherous character, he will not harden his head and lead troops to attack at such a time."
"Winter will be our biggest helper. If Zhao Tuo really brought his troops here, it would be even better, and hundreds of thousands of Qin people would be folded here! ”
Tou Manshan was full of confidence, and the content of his words made the Xiongnu nobles who were still afraid of them all excited.
That's right, winter is coming!
The Qin people came from the south and could not have adapted to the cold winter weather near the Great River.
Not to mention that after the cold winter came, the heavy snow closed the road, and the Qin people's army could not get supplies from the rear, even if the Huns avoided the battle, they could consume the Qin people here alive.
Looking at it this way, they robbed the Qin army of the transaction, and if Zhao Tuo knew each other, he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, and fled back to the Seinai with his army.
If Zhao Tuo didn't know what to do and really dared to attack, the cold winter would make the Qin people suffer a lot, and the Qin army would definitely have no return.
Big orders are in this policy, high!
robbed the Qin people, and the other party didn't dare to fight back, it was really refreshing!
At this moment, even Wuluxu admired it very much, and felt that there was indeed a huge gap between himself and Tou Mandanyu.
"Big order is a clever plan, admire!"
"Big order is in Gaojian!"
Bursts of praise.
Tou Manshan is inflated in mentality.
"Zhao Tuo, you are deceiving me with treacherous tricks on behalf of the land, and now I want you to taste the taste of being bullied."
"I'm going to make you regret what you did to Ben Shan Yu in the first place!"
Tou Manshan is full of revenge.
However, he did not sit north of the river and wait for Zhao Tuo.
The Qin army had already withdrawn south, and by the time they escorted the captured Huns here, it would be at least the end of September.
The Xiongnu could not gather in one place for a long time, because the local forage was not enough for a large number of war horses to eat, and they had to move frequently.
Therefore, Tou Mandan Yu only left the right general Yi Hanyi to lead 5,000 people to stay and inspect nearby, and he himself wanted to lead all the Xiongnu and Yueshi cavalry back to the Yinshan grassland in the north.
……
"Noble girl, the Qin people and the Xiongnu have made a deal, and I heard that their army has withdrawn south, and Touman is also preparing to lead the army back to Yinshan early tomorrow morning. This is completely different from the plan, we won't be abandoned by the Qin people, right? ”
At night, in the military tent of the Yue people.
Yaguda and the nobles of the Yue Clan looked at Su Jiasha with a frightened expression.
The Qin people's actions were too unexpected for them.
It was clearly said before that the Qin army crossed the river to attack, and the Yueshi cooperated from the inside, and the two armies joined forces to attack inside and outside to break the Xiongnu.
Why did the Qin people send envoys to trade land and slaves with the Huns before they started the war, and in the blink of an eye, they let the army retreat south, and no one should be afraid of this matter.
Su Jiasha said lightly: "Do you know who is the envoy of the Qin State who made a deal with the Huns?" ”
The nobles of the Yue Clan looked at each other, and they didn't know it.
Su Jiasha showed a slightly meaningful smile and whispered, "That person's name is Li Shiqi, and he is the most famous strategist under the general, and he is also the most powerful vertical and horizontal strategist in Great Qin. ”
"Eat it?"
Among the nobles, Yi Yaguda was quite fluent in the Qin language and knew some Qin affairs, and when he heard this name, he immediately remembered something, and said: "Is it the envoy of the Qin State who deceived Touman, Li Shiqi?" ”
Sugartha nodded, "That's it." ”
"Shhh...... Why is this person so bold, he deceived Touman before, and now he dares to come to the Huns as an envoy, isn't he afraid that Touman will be angry and cut off his head? ”
The nobles of the Zhongyue Clan were surprised.
Su Jiasha smiled: "It is precisely because the envoy sent by the Qin State is Li Shiqi that we don't have to worry about what happens. I have heard the reputation of this person be told by the merchant Jia of the Qin State that he deceived Touman in Daidi, causing his elite to suffer heavy losses and plunging the Xiongnu into civil strife. ”
"I heard that Li Shiqi later deceived the king of a country in the east, making the other party surrender without a fight, so that the Qin army surrendered a country without effort. It can be said that the person who makes a deal with him has never ended well, and there is an envoy who has come to eat, what are you afraid of? ”
Listening to Li Shiqi's envoy achievements, all the nobles of the Yue Clan were relieved at once, and they also understood the meaning behind Su Jiasha's words.
Someone even chuckled and said: "Such a person, Tou Man actually dares to make a second deal with him, and he is not afraid of being bullied by the Qin people again." ”
"Yes, this big Danyu looks very confident."
Sugartha smiled.
"Touman is going back to the north early tomorrow morning, let's follow."
"But this time, I'm afraid this place will be owned by the Qin State."
Tomorrow's three watches, work hard to complete
