Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Xian Shan nodded silently, and said: "Commander, there is a plain fifty miles north of here, and there are a series of small hills there. If you don't go closer and observe carefully, it is difficult to find a large number of people hiding behind the hills. Cattle, sheep, women and children."

Li Mu stared at Xian Shan for a while, then suddenly said: "Why didn't other people tell me this news?"

Xian Shan said solemnly: "Because none of them is the eldest prince of the Aries tribe, and the Aries tribe was once one of the most powerful tribes under Xiuli Shanyu."

Li Mu laughed loudly.

After a while, Li Mu suppressed his laughter and gave an order.

"The whole army gathers immediately and heads north. We must arrive at the place Xianshan said before sunset, and launch an attack on the women and children of the Xiongnu!"

Looking at the group of Zhao cavalrymen who had changed from being scattered to orderly in an instant, Xian Shan sighed secretly in his heart again.

The people on the grasslands have always only obeyed the strong. If this is the case, then it is not so unacceptable to obey the strong from the Central Plains, right?

Chapter 8 and One Raid (First update)

Facts have proved that Xian Shan's words are not wrong at all.

Just as the sun was about to set, Li Mu, who was heading north without stopping, was rewarded by the scouts.

"General, I found a large number of cattle, sheep and tents behind a large hill ten miles to the north. They should be the women and children of the Huns!"

Li Mu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly asked: "Can you be discovered by the other party?"

"Report to the general, the other party has not found our whereabouts!"

Li Mu glanced at the Zhao Hun cavalry scout in front of him who was not wearing Zhao Jun's armor and was completely dressed like a nomad, and he was completely relieved.

Obviously, the women and children of the Huns did not expect to be attacked nearly a thousand miles away from Yanzhi Mountain, so the vigilance of the periphery was also very loose.

If it was the main force of the Huns, Li Mu would have been discovered dozens of miles away.

Li Mu didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately ordered: "Send the order, the whole army dismounts and rests for an hour. After dark, we will attack the Huns' camp!"

The five thousand soldiers immediately dismounted according to Li Mu's order, took the horses to drink water and graze, and then ate some dry food, and then sat quietly in a place, waiting for the night to come.

Xian Shan found a big rock by the river, and sat on it blankly, quietly watching the torrential river flow in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.

Not far away came Tu Xie's loud voice: "Everyone have a good rest. When you go to kill the Huns, remember that the heads of the Huns have military merits. Don't forget to take them! Also, although the Huns here are women and children, but there will definitely be a Hun army that is not too weak to protect here, so you must follow the formation closely, don't run around and hug the Huns' women, so as not to be hit by the Huns Leng Jian, I don’t even know how he died!”

A Zhao cavalryman said with a smile: "Two or five hundred masters, these Hun women have such a strong smell of sheep, how can they sleep on it?"

A burst of laughter followed.

Tu Xie let out a yell, kicked a Zhao soldier's ass hard, and kicked him directly into the river with a plop.

"Grandma, which bastard last year was so crazy about women that he got up in the middle of the night and quietly went to the stables to find a mare? It smells like sheep. It's good to be a woman!"

A louder roar of laughter followed.

Xian Shan watched this scene quietly, and suddenly there was some kind of strange emotion surging in his heart.

A moment later, footsteps sounded behind Xian Shan.

Tu Xie sat down beside Xian Shan in a serious manner: "What, do you have something on your mind?"

"Yes." Xian Shan nodded lightly.

Tu Xie glanced at Xianshan, and said with a smile, "What's on your mind? You look like a woman with this sad look. It's impossible for a woman to manage the prairie in the future."

"You're a bitch!" Xian Shan replied angrily, obviously very dissatisfied with Tu Xie's underestimation, but after a while he still sighed and said: "Actually, that's what I'm worried about, Although I have made up my mind to seek refuge in the State of Zhao, I don't know what to do to satisfy King Zhao. You also know that such an errand is not easy to do. If one is not careful, it is very likely that I will Heads will fall."

Tu Xie glanced at Xian Shan in surprise, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Tu Xie's laughter was very loud, not only the many Zhao soldiers around looked at him, but even Li Mu, who was talking to several Zhao generals in the distance, also took a look here.

This obviously made Xian Shan lose face, he glanced at Tu Xie angrily, and said, "What's so funny!"

Tu Xie slowly suppressed his laughter, looked carefully at Xian Shan, shook his head and said: "Xian Shan, Xian Shan, it seems that you are no longer the brave and invincible prince you were back then, but a true prince. You are truly a commoner of Zhao State."

"I don't think there's anything wrong with being a commoner, and don't forget, didn't we agree at the beginning that we want to be a real Zhao people?" Xian Shan raised it almost habitually. One sentence.

Tu Xie shook his head, and said, "I didn't mean that, what I meant was, have you forgotten the law on the grassland?"

"Laws on the grassland?" Xian Shan seemed a little puzzled.

Tu Xie nodded seriously, and said: "Yes, the law on the grassland is that the weak obey the orders of the strong unconditionally. Now that we are weak and the subjects of Zhao, then of course we should obey the king of Zhao unconditionally." He told us to go east and we will not go west, and he told us to conquer Donghu and we will not conquer Wusun. As long as we Huns become the loyal shepherd dogs of King Zhao, then maybe he will be unhappy Whip us a few times, but you won't kill us for no reason, will you?"

Xian Shan looked at Tu Xie in astonishment: "I can't believe you said those words. To be honest, did the governor ask me to tell you?"

Tu Xie shrugged his shoulders, and said: "Don't take yourself too seriously, the governor may indeed want you to be the new king of the Huns, but don't forget that the new king has the governor and Zhao Huan on top of you." King of the country, as long as they want, you will be abandoned at any time."

Xian Shan closed his mouth very depressed, and after a while he said, "Why didn't I realize that you deserved a beating before?"

Tu Xie chuckled, patted Xian Shan on the shoulder vigorously, and said: "Okay, the time is almost up, we should set off, let's go."

After walking a few steps, Tu Xie suddenly turned around and took a deep look at Xian Shan.

"My friend, in fact, there should be no Huns from now on. There are only Zhao people on the grassland. As a friend, I sincerely hope that you can become a Zhao people through and through. Maybe this is not the case. You will benefit too much, but your children and grandchildren will benefit from your example, and your family will get blessings from your actions."

After saying these words, Tu Xie walked towards his subordinates without looking back.

Xian Shan stood there quietly, watching the direction in which his old friend was going away, and only sighed slowly after a long time.

The words just now were spoken by Tu Xie in the language of Zhao country. From the accent, you would even think that this is a complete Zhao countryman.

But when they separated two years ago, Tu Xie could not even speak more than ten sentences of Zhao Guo language.

"What a simple truth"

Several horses rushed past Xian Shan, and the orderly immediately shouted loudly: "The governor is ordered, get on the horse immediately, and set off after a cup of tea!"

After these days of tempering, Xian Shan stepped on his mount almost subconsciously, and then looked up at the sky.

The evening glow of the setting sun was extremely dazzling in his line of sight, it was red like the color of fresh blood.

The time is just right.

The sun gradually set, and the last ray of light was completely swallowed up, and the earth fell into darkness.

What Tu Xie said was not wrong, the Huns did send a strong enough general to guard the base camp, that is, the third son of Du Longqi Chanyu competed with his three thousand cavalry.

For nearly [-] women and children, [-] cavalry were actually enough. After all, the Huns' large troops had already wiped out the area within a few hundred miles, and there would be no human habitation at all.

So Zhubi didn't worry about any precautions. On the contrary, the son of Shan Yu, who was extremely depressed because he couldn't play, spent most of his time drinking and having fun.

On this day, Zhui Bi entered his big tent with his arms around a young Xiongnu woman who seemed to be quite noble, as if he was doing business, and he could vaguely hear laughter coming from the big tent.
