General Qin

Chapter 431: Prince Modun

Outside Gaoliu City, felt tents are everywhere.

In a felt tent guarded by Shan Yu's personal guards, Yan Wangxi, who was covered in stinky clothes, opened his eyes wide and was aggrieved.

"Two hundred gold?"

"Damn it, the King of Yan Kingdom, the king of Gu, who is of the bloodline of Ji and a descendant of Duke Zhao, the King of Qin actually only offered a reward of two hundred gold for Gu!"

"It's unreasonable, it's just too much bullying!"

Yan Wangxi was very angry.

You must know that his son Yan Dan was rewarded with a thousand gold rewards by the King of Qin, but as the real King Yan, he was only offered a reward of two hundred gold. This is simply an insult to him.

Not to mention that he was talking nonsense in front of Touman Chanyu before, saying that he was worth a thousand pieces of gold, and described himself as worth a lot.

Unexpectedly, Hou Huyantiao, the capital of the left bone, punctured the cowhide after returning from Qin Jun's side, which made him very ashamed.

But after the anger was over, Yan Wangxi, who had calmed down, felt deep fear again.

"Then how can Zhao Tuo agree to this condition! Thirty thousand shi of grain, in this generation, is worth two hundred gold, plus ten carts of pearls, jade and cloth, it will cost four to five hundred gold. How could he, Zhao Tuo, be willing to agree?" ? Not to mention armor and weapons, how dare he hand over these things to barbarians, how dare he!"

Yan Wangxi roared in fear, his hands trembling unconsciously.

The Huns have always been mercenary, facing the strength given by the Qin people, they made up their minds to sell him.

Yan Wangxi knew that he was in a dangerous situation. In order to survive from this crack, he came up with a way to raise his own value and let the Huns break the contract and raise prices, thereby angering the Qin army.

It is best to let the Huns fight the Qin people, so that he can find a chance to survive from this crisis.

The development of the matter was just as he expected, the greedy Touman Shanyu, after listening to Yan Wangxi's nonsense for a while, was really moved by the huge benefits, broke the agreement with the Qin people on the date set, and temporarily raised the price.

According to Yan Wangxi's understanding of the Qin people, food and cloth are easy to talk about, but the control of weapons and equipment is very strict, and it is almost impossible to trade them to the Hu people.

But I didn't expect that Qin General Zhao Tuo actually agreed, and he agreed very readily. He agreed with Zuo Guduhou on the spot that Qin Jun would spend three days to raise supplies, and after three days, he could gather all the things and send them away. Come, exchange Yan Wangxi with them.

"If it falls into the hands of the Qin people, there is no reason for Gu to survive. Gu must not sit here and wait to die. If he wants to survive at this moment, the only way to survive is to provoke the Huns to fight with the Qin army."

"The Huns are greedy for profit, so I'm afraid they won't do it. In this way, they can only intimidate them, saying that the Qin army's false promise is actually a trick to attack the Qin army, so as to persuade the Huns to attack the Qin army. "

Yan Wangxi was in a desperate situation, his desire to survive was stimulated, his mind became more sensitive, and he quickly came up with a plan.

He ran out of the tent and shouted, "I want to see Shanyu! I want to see Shanyu!"

...

About an hour later.

In a huge dome.

Touman Shanyu of the Huns and the nobles of the Huns who went south this time were discussing what happened just now.

"The king of Yan said that the generals of the Qin State pretended to agree to our conditions this time, but they actually wanted to take the opportunity to attack us."

Touman Chanyu sat leisurely on the bed, scanning the people in the tent.

Hearing this, Huyan Tiao, the Marquis of Zuo Gudu, immediately shouted: "Da Shanyu, you didn't see the appearance of that General Qin today, he is just a child with no hair yet. , like a sheep seeing a wolf, very scared."

"He said that Qin's army only wanted to conquer Dai, and they never had any ill intentions towards us Huns. They only wanted to buy the King of Yan with money. As for fighting us, that's even more impossible. So The King of Yan said about the sneak attack just now, he must be afraid that we will sell him to the Qin people, so he made a special speech to provoke."

Touman Chanyu smiled: "The captured old sheep will naturally think of various ways to escape. It's normal for friends in the grassland to say these things."

Touman Chanyu thought of the sharp weapons he saw in the hands of the Qin army when the two armies confronted each other before, and a look of jealousy and envy flashed in his eyes.

"Although the sheep in the south are cowardly, the horns on their heads are sharp. If all the warriors under my tent can hold the weapons made by the Qin people, maybe they can have stronger force and defeat those damned enemies. "

Although the Xiongnu occupied the center of the grassland, they had powerful enemies on both sides.

Compared with the crown belt people in the south, the Yuezhi in the west and the Donghu in the east are the real threats to the Huns.

Just when Touman Shanyu dismissed King Yan's proposal, other Huns nobles also thought that it was a provocative word spoken by King Yan in order to survive.

A slightly immature voice sounded from the tent.

"Supporting the plow alone, Tu Shanyu, I think that old sheep said these words to save his life. But the Qin people in the south also need to be careful."

"The amount of food we asked for from them is so huge, and the large amount of pearls, jade, cloth, and weapons and armor are so precious. The general of the Qin people was not stingy at all, and he agreed immediately. Isn't this doubtful?" ?”

Following the sound, there was silence in the tent.

Immediately afterwards, Huyan Tiao, the Marquis of Zuo Gudu, said sharply, "Prince Maodun (mò dú) is very good, but not right."

"Because the things that General Qin gave us belonged to the Dai Kingdom that had just been wiped out. They just exchanged Dai Kingdom's grain and cloth with us. For them, there was no loss at all."

"As for the weapons and armor we asked for, the number of those Qin people is tens of thousands. Giving us one thousand is as simple and easy as plucking a hair from a cow."

"And buying that old sheep back will not only bring them a bounty, but also allow them to be promoted in Qin State. Naturally, they are willing to exchange such a huge benefit. Is there any doubt about it?" ?”

"As for what the old sheep said, the Qin people may come back and attack us. Hahaha, my grassland warriors are much more numerous and powerful than them. Do a group of sheep in the south dare to challenge the wolves in the north? "

Huyan Tiao looked very excited, because this time the transaction between the Huns and the Qin people was facilitated by him.

When the deal is completed, his tribe will get a lot of benefits, so Huyan Tiao is naturally committed to promoting this matter, not to mention that he thinks that King Yan and Mo Dun are talking nonsense.

Touman Shanyu turned his head and looked at a boy with braids and a half-moon scar on his forehead.

That was his son, Mouton.

Touman Shanyu said: "The Qin people in the south are very fond of their titles. It is a very precious thing, far more valuable than the food and cloth they give us, so they are willing to trade, which is not necessary. Suspicion. What the old sheep said was just a desire to survive before dying, so don’t take it seriously.”

Prince Modun was still a young man, and he had an idea in his mind, so he said it on the spot, he said: "What Shan Yu said is true. I just saw that these Qin people clearly have tens of thousands of troops, but they didn't even say the price, so they agreed. I have met our request, so I have some doubts. I heard from the elders in the clan that this was the general of Zhao State more than ten years ago..."

"go out!"

A voice suppressing anger resounded in the dome.

Tou Manchanyu's face was flushed, and his eyes were fixed on his son.

What happened more than ten years ago was an eternal pain in his heart.

Mao Dun was startled by Shanyu's anger, and immediately retreated tremblingly.

Behind him is Zuo Guduhou with a gloating smile on his face.

For young people who cannot speak, it is better to speak less.

outside the dome.

The wind with the smell of horse dung blows into Mao Dun's nostrils.

He looked at the dome where Shan Yu was, and clenched his fists.

"Since that woman gave birth to her son, Shan Yu has loved me less and less day by day."

...

Affected by Yan Wangxi's words, Touman Shanyu sent cavalry to patrol and be vigilant even though he seemed indifferent on the surface.

It's just that this vigilance was dispelled a lot on the second day.

Because the envoys of the Qin people came early.

This time, he took the initiative to bring the first batch of grain to show the sincerity of the Qin people.

At three o'clock tomorrow, I will finish writing the story of the Xiongnu and King Yan.

It’s the last day for double monthly tickets, ask for a ticket!

"Historical Records Biography of the Huns": Shanyu had a prince named Maodun. Later, she fell in love with the Yan family and gave birth to a young son, but Shanyu wished to abolish Maodun and gave birth to a young son.

There is no historical record of Maodun's age, but he will kill his father in thirteen years and take over the position. At this point, it feels like he should be ten years old, or even much older.
