Chapter 42, each with a ghost

Looking at the tribal leaders who were arguing to explore the way, the Donghu leader shouted

"Don't quarrel, what's the noise, the tribe that explored the path this time was elected by me, Toumandanyu and Leader Lin Hu, and the remaining one was elected by the people of the small tribe, do you have any opinions?"

These tribal leaders looked at the Donghu leader and shouted, and the rest of the people could only agree, and if they were not as strong as people, they naturally had to bow their heads.

Soon, the three of them each selected a tribe from the tribe that followed them and asked them to send people to explore the way, while the people of the small tribes agreed to send people to form a team and negotiate to divide the things they brought back equally.

"Then the army will set off first and set up camp thirty miles away from Yanmen Pass to attract Li Mu's main force." The East Lake Leader said.

This time the southward movement was proposed by the leader of Donghu, so the leader of Donghu was vaguely the boss of this loose alliance, Tou Manshan glanced at the leader of Donghu and said

"Ben Shan Yu went to mobilize the people first."

After saying that, he left, after Touman returned to his royal tent, he threw the saber in his hand aside, and the wolf priest in the king's tent saw Touman hurriedly stepped forward and asked

"Shan Yu, is something wrong?"

"Hmph." Touman snorted coldly and told what had just happened.

"That's a good thing, Da Danyu." The priest said with a happy face.

"What's good? These people all listened to the words of the Donghu leader one by one and ignored the bill, is this a good thing? Touman lay on the seat, picked up the wine jar, took a sip, and said dissatisfiedly.

"Listen to me slowly, judging from tonight's discussion, the Hu alliance seems to be stable, but it is actually very loose, and the internal contradictions are very serious, the leader of Lin Hu has the blood of the Central Plains, so many tribal leaders look down on him, except for some hardcore supporters, the rest are detached, and what about the leader of Donghu? Although he is brave and strategic, Donghu has a serious snowstorm this year, and his strength has been greatly damaged, so he will send people to unite the entire grassland to the south. The priest said

"You know all this you said, what do you want to say?" Touman asked.

"I know that Shan Yu has always had the ambition to unify the grassland, but Donghu and Linhu have always been the biggest obstacles, and this southward is a good opportunity, Donghu's strength has been frustrated, and Linhu cannot convince the public, as long as in this southward raid, Shan Yu shows the strength of my Huns, and shows a little favor to those Hu people, I think they will definitely take refuge in Shan Yu, when the Hu alliance exists in name only, Shan Yu will send the royal army with the tribe and these Hu people to annex Donghu and Linhu in one fell swoop, then the entire grassland will be Shan Yu." The priest said excitedly.

Tou Man listened to the words of the sacrifice or considered, for this plunder, he came with nearly 100,000 troops, including 30,000 Wang Court guards, 100,000 Donghu, 80,000 Linhu, and the rest of the tribe is about 100,000 people.

"Okay, according to what the sacrifice said, I will give full authority to the sacrifice for this war." Touman said as he slammed the table.

"Thank you for your trust, I will not disappoint you." The priest said.

"Hahahaha."

On the wall of Yanmen Pass, Li Mu looked at the Xiongnu and Hu people who were camping for thousands of miles in the distance, and his face was full of seriousness.

"General, the Huns and the Hu people don't seem to deal with each other, huh?" Sima Shang looked at the camp of the Xiongnu and Hu people and said.

The normal joint venture should be you have me and I have you, the Hu people and the Xiongnu seem to be stationed together, but in fact they are loose and abnormal, the Xiongnu are in the east, and the Hu people are in the west, and there is a seemingly tight but loose area between the two sides.

"The hatred between the Xiongnu and the Hu people does not have to be less than ours, this time because of natural disasters forced to unite to the south, but they are all ghosts, the Xiongnu have always had the idea of annexing the Hu people, and the Hu people are the same as the Huns and thieves, how can they let the Xiongnu camp with themselves." Li Mu's brows loosened slightly.

He originally thought that the Xiongnu and the Hu people would temporarily put aside their hatred this time because of natural disasters, but now it seems that he thinks too much, the Xiongnu and Hu people can only rely on their powerful cavalry, as for the brain, except for some sacrificial envoys, the grassland has nothing.

"Inform all cities to strictly defend and not let the Xiongnu and Hu people cross the border, and also do not take the initiative to attack, show weakness to the enemy, and strictly guard the surroundings." Li Mu commanded.

"It's the general." Sima Shang's face was full of helplessness.

Over the years, Li Mu has been running Yanmen County with them, Yanmen was often harassed and plundered by the Hu people in the past, and their soldiers were often weak, the Hu people's cavalry came and went like the wind, and their combat power was fierce, and their foot soldiers were not opponents at all. The country didn't bother to care about them when they saw them like this, just don't let Yanmen County lose it, and after a long time, they slowly became numb, and they became those bastard soldiers in their hearts, and they looked down on themselves.

But after Li Mu arrived, he first took them to win a battle, helped them find their self-confidence, and then began to continue to run Yanmen County, giving them the best treatment, and at the same time conscripting troops, blocking the plundering of the Hu people again and again, just when they thought that Li Mu would let them fight back, but Li Mu just let them keep the status quo, which made them very aggrieved.

Li Mu led them to win the battle, won the reward, defended their parents and friends, they were very grateful to Li Mu, the soldier's reward for the general was to go into battle to kill the enemy, but Li Mu did not allow them to go into battle, they thought that Li Mu felt that they were not good, so they trained desperately every day in order to repay Li Mu, they were holding back a wave of anger in their hearts, and this time the Huns and the Hu people made them see hope, an opportunity to show that they were not waste, so they were waiting.

After Li Mu's order to strictly guard against death was issued, the entire Yanmen County was mobilized, and the city was closed and no entry or exit was allowed.

At this time, the leaders of the grassland tribes were drinking, and the seats in the entire tent were divided into three parts, those who were loyal to Touman, those who were loyal to Donghu, and those who were loyal to Linhu, seeing that the tribal leaders under the leader of Linhu were just drinking in a sullen voice, Touman couldn't help but smile, and sure enough, as his sacrifice said, these leaders had a great opinion about the leader of Linhu.

"Shan Yu, two leaders, I don't know when we have to wait? Our sons have been looking forward to the treasures and women of the Central Plains for a long time. One of the leaders stood up and said.

He is the leader of the ragged, and the scarlet belongs to a large tribe that has just become strong recently, although it is not as strong as the Xiongnu, Donghu and Linhu, but it also has a lot of strength, and is vaguely the leader of those neutral steppe tribes.

"Don't worry, the leader of the ragged body, when our spies find out Li Mu's deployment, we only need to kill with one blow, and then we will drive straight into and take down half of the Zhao country, and then countless treasures, cattle and sheep, and women will belong to our grassland children." Touman laughed.

Four of their cavalry had already set out, and everyone was waiting for the return of the four cavalry, and once they returned, it would be time for them to march south.
