The grassland is vast and the pastoral songs in the green fields.

I just experienced a bloody coup, but there was no trace of sadness in the continuous herds' tent.

The woman grazed her horses and gathered together in her spare time. She was rushing to make her husband and son’s robe on the battle, showing off her expensive gold and silver jewelry, and chatting about homely.

The man bent his bow and shot the eagle, comparing with each other with his martial arts and riding skills to prove his courage.

For thousands of years, the tribes on the grassland have fought and annexed, and the people of the Huns have probably become accustomed to this. Among the wolves, the wolf king has grown old and replaced by the new wolf king. In the eyes of these people, it may be natural.

What the Huns needed was a strong man, a leader who could not only lead them through the ice and snow, cold wind and cool frost, but also resist other wolves on the grassland.

During the Hetao Battle, the Xiongnu troops were defeated by the Qin army. The leaders of various surnames of the Xiongnu tribes retreated to Yinshan and gathered at the Shanyu royal court.

At a banquet, the tribe leaders of the three surnames of the Huns and the leaders of various tribes who were close to them were killed.

After this battle, Maodun successfully annexed the tribes of the Huns, and quickly appeased the people of various tribes, stabilizing the order of the royal court.

The Huns' tent.

In the huge brazier, there was a blazing fire. Wrapped with thick felt cloth, the frost and cold air outside the tent did not penetrate.

"Hurry! Be careful."

The old shaman commanded five or six Hun warriors to move a huge throne into the tent.

"Old Shaman, are you?"

The wolf girl Nuomin walked from the side of the big tent and asked in confusion.

The old shaman looked filled with joy and said, "This is the throne that the Xiutu tribe gave to the Shanyu. The Shanyu has basically unified the Huns and has become a real king. In the future, all the chiefs of each surname and tribe will come to see the Shanyu. How can the Shanyu do not have a grand throne?"

"Come here a little more." The old shaman was chatting with the wolf girl while directing the Huns' warriors to set the throne right.

Nuomin took a look at the throne. Its heavy and simple appearance was carved with stars and beast totems symbolizing the authority of the Chanyu. The most precious thing is that there is a white tiger skin on the throne. The fierce expression of the hideous tiger head was full of wildness and majesty.

The White Tiger was regarded as a god among the Huns. After this, the Shanyu's status would be more stable.

The old shaman worked for a long time and suddenly asked, "Where is the Shanyu?"

"The Shanyu competed with various warriors on the school ground outside!" Nomin replied. "In addition, in recent days, many tribes have sent envoys to express their loyalty to the Shanyu."

After finishing his busy work, the old shaman sat on the ground panting and asked, "What tribes are they?"

"The Qiao family, Yu family, Yuwen tribe. In addition, there are some sporadic small tribes."

The old shaman nodded, and Nuomin continued, "In addition, the Donghu King and Tuoba tribe sent envoys respectively."

"Oh?" the old shaman raised his head, looked at the wolf girl, and asked, "What did they say?"

"The King of Donghu congratulated Shanyu, hoping that the two families would be harmonious and resist the southern people together. The envoys of the Tuoba tribe were for... marriage." After Nuomin finished speaking, he looked at the old shaman, as if waiting for his idea.

The old shaman pondered for a while and said, "The Tuoba tribe is a large tribe in the Donghu, and has always been afraid of the Donghu King. The Tuoba sect had just experienced a crushing defeat in Yunzhong, and the 5,000 warriors he brought back were less than two or three. At this time, marriage may be a desire to seek foreign aid."

"What should we do?" asked the wolf girl.

"After all, Shanyu has to make the decision on this matter. Let him come back soon and get an idea!"

The herds tent surrounded and on the flat grass, a group of Hun warriors were competing with martial arts.

The Huns' Shanyu Maodun competed with his new commander Duoyan Boba in the schoolyard. The two took off their clothes and only had a pair of leather pants left on the lower body. They were sturdy, majestic, full of breasts, barefoots, and were competing against each other to find the enemy's flaws.

The concubine's son of the Huyan leader, Duoyan Boba, was not implicated in that coup, but instead was relied on by Maodun, inherited the Huyan family and became the new leader.

Maodun pretended to reveal a flaw. When Duoyanbo rushed over, he dodged and threw it to the ground with his foot.

Maodun took the opportunity to press it on, tied it to the ground, and smiled and said, "How about it, Duoyanboba, have you admitted defeat?"

"The Shanyu was slightly better, and he was convinced."

Maodun stood up happily, admired Duoyan Boba's straightforwardness, and pulled him up.

The pastoral tent not far away.

Hu Ji looked at this scene, put down the tent door, slowly turned around, and said, "This Shanyu is much harder to deal with than Touman."

A man shrouded in a black cloak looked at Hu Ji and turned slowly and asked, "Oh? What do you mean?"

"It seems to be insanity, but every move is very conspiring."

"This is not the best." The man in black smiled and said, "How can a simple person be feasible to deal with Prince Qin?"

Hu Ji picked up the silver pot on the table, poured herself a glass of wine. As soon as she tasted it, she frowned and said, "I'm used to drinking the mellow wine from Qin, and this sour horse milk wine is really a bit difficult to eat. How is the situation in the empire?"

"Just just ended, Ying Zheng ordered Meng Tian to lead his troops to settle down and plan to build the Great Wall along Yinshan. Once the Great Wall is built, it is probably not so easy for the Hu people to cross Yinshan again."

Hu Ji smiled, took a sip of the white wine in the wine glass, and smiled on her charming face, saying, "No matter how strong the city wall is, it cannot resist the erosion from the inside. Is the great troubles of the empire more than the Hu people?"

"What's the matter? Am I competing with Duoyanboba and others?"

Maodun complained and walked into his tent. When he saw the throne, his eyes lit up, he walked up and sat down.

"Shanyu, there is one thing that requires you to make an idea," said Nuomin. "The Tuoba tribe sent an envoy to express the intention of marriage."

Maodun looked happy and said, "Is it the daughter of Tuobashu who is known as the number one beauty in Donghu?"

Looking at Shanyu's happy look, Nuomin nodded helplessly and said, "It's Tuobayue, the daughter of Tuoba Technology!"

"That's fine! Let's get married!" Mao Dun waved his hand and made a decision.

"Shanyu!" Seeing Maodun hurriedly wanting to return to the schoolyard, the wolf girl stopped him and said, "The King of Donghu also sent an envoy to congratulate Shanyu, and expressed his willingness to join forces with our Xiongnu to deal with the Qin people together."

"It's great!" Maodun finished speaking, and had already stood up and prepared to leave the throne.

Nuomin was quite helpless with this Shanyu, not knowing whether he understood what he meant. Tuoba Shui, the leader of the Tuoba tribe, had always been afraid of the Donghu King. If he chose one, he could no longer choose another.

Nomin glanced at the old shaman standing beside Yi Zhan, and planned to turn to him for help.

"Shanyu, for the sake of Tuoba tribe, Is it worth it?" The old shaman finally couldn't help but ask.

"Which side has stronger power than Donghu and I, the Huns?"

"We, the Huns, suffered heavy losses in the war, and compared with the Donghu, they are already at a disadvantage." said the old shaman.

"Since that's the case, why do we still have to help King Donghu solve his internal threats and let him free his hands earlier to deal with me, the Huns?" Maodun said casually, stepped out of the tent, ran to the schoolyard excitedly, and went to find his warriors.

In the tent, Nuomin and the old shaman were stunned and it took a long time to come back to their senses.

………

"Why are you here to report to me now?"

Meng Tian scolded the guards who were accompanying him, then opened the door of his tent and walked in.

Meng Tian’s decorative tent is very simple. A table is placed with some bamboo slips and a few wolf-haired pens on it. The shelves on both sides are placed with military books and carved bows and swords given by Qin Emperor.

After the case was closed, there was a huge map hanging, which detailed the mountains and rivers between Hetao.

At this moment, several new cities have been added to this map, marking information.

These cities are new cities built by the Qin army after pacifying Henan.

A young man in brocade was standing behind the table and was looking at the map.

Meng Tian got into the tent, returned on one knee, bowed and said, "I will meet His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"The locations of these cities are all good, and the progress of reclamation of wasteland and building cities is also very fast. General Meng Tian is indeed the pillar of the empire, and his spirit is steadily connected with civil and military power."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince praised it."

Ying Ziyi turned around, looked at Meng Tian, ​​and said, "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, Prince!"

"This time, I came here in vain, just for one thing, to mobilize troops."

Ying Ziyi walked off the high platform where the table was placed, came to Meng Tian, ​​and said.

Meng Tian thought for a while and said, "Yunzhong County was plundered by the Northern Hu, which shows that it is insufficient defense. At the end, 20,000 soldiers will be sent to guard Yunzhong in the north to protect His Royal Highness."

"No, the general misunderstood. I came here not for the matter of Yunzhong, but for the purpose of mobilizing troops to go out of the frontier."

Meng Tian's face changed and she said, "I wonder how many soldiers your highness will be dispatched?"

"Ten thousand cavalry!"

"This, although Your Highness, the last general, is trusted by His Majesty the Emperor and has the right to deal with things at the moment, the war has stopped. The use of more than a thousand troops needs to be reported to the Taiwei Mansion, while more than a thousand troops need to be reported to the Emperor."

Meng Tian showed a worried look on his face and said, "What's more, the Huns have retreated for hundreds of miles now, and there is no war around. I wonder where Your Highness will be dispatched?"

"Of course, the Hu enemy will be chased north!" Ying Ziyi smiled and said slowly: "Before coming to Yunzhong, my father gave me the responsibility to defend against the Northern Hu. I feel that the Huns retreated at this moment, it is not far enough!"

"Your Highness, the matter of going out to the frontier to pursue Beihu is of great importance. As soon as the war ended, all the focus of the empire was on building a land in Henan. Ten thousand cavalry battles cost a lot, and they may not be allowed by the ministers."

"It's okay, the needs of this battle are all borne by me."

Meng Tian was stunned. He forgot that Ying Ziyi had his own fiefdom. Moreover, the taxes collected from the trade routes and the tributes from the Western Regions were astronomical figures.

Except for part of this money being tributed to the court, the rest belongs to the crown prince.

"From Wuchecheng to Fuping County, and then to Jiuyuan and the northern counties. The main hikes have been under construction one after another. Once connected, you can use them as long as you need combat preparations. There are vast fields at the western end of Beidi County, north of Fuping County, and east of Helan Mountain, with lush water and grass. I have sent people to build several horse gardens around to raise war horses and provide military supplies. At that time, I recklessly attacked the Huns in the clouds and attacked the north of the Huns."

"Your Highness!" Meng Tian looked around, took a step forward, and said in a low voice: "Before coming, Your Majesty gave me a secret order, and at the end, he would lead an army of 300,000 to defend His Highness at the critical moment. At this moment, the empire seemed calm, but in fact it was undercurrents. The terrain in the north of the border was complicated, the road was difficult to distinguish, and the transportation of food and grass was even more difficult. The army was lightly out, and it was difficult to take care of the beginning and end!"

"For hundreds of years, border generals from all countries have been blocking dangers by mountains to resist Hu's enemy. General Meng Tian, ​​why is this?"
