Chapter 598: The Huns Withdrew
Finally, Touman appointed Zahe, the leader of the Zhahe tribe, the largest tribe in the new camp, as the vanguard general and led the 30,000 troops in the new camp to resist the Qin army.
Zhahe was very excited after receiving the order, and even thought it was Prince Maodun who said good things.
After Zhahe became the vanguard general, he was assigned to lead 30,000 troops to the border to attack Meng Tian's army.
He also told Zhahe to focus on defense and never attack.
This instruction made Zhahe stunned for a moment, and he felt very baffled that there was such a thing in this world. He was allowed to be a vanguard not for attack, but for defense.
Little did he know that Touman's purpose was to delay his attack, not to attack. Once he attacked, 30,000 men would face the well-prepared hundreds of thousands of Qin troops, and the whole army would be annihilated in just a few days.
What he didn't expect was that from the moment he became the vanguard general, he had become an abandoned son. Not only was he an abandoned son, but the 30,000 troops he led also became abandoned.
Meng Chongde and a group of special forces were also among the 30,000 troops.
In fact, they wanted to assassinate Touman and others last night, but they heard something interesting. .
Last night, they sneaked into the camps of Touman, King Zuo Xian, King You Xian and the general.
Just when they were about to assassinate each other, they got an interesting thing one after another, that is, kill the prince, seek refuge with the prince, and protect the prince. The prince is Mao Dun.
In Touman's camp, he learned that Touman wanted to kill the crown prince and made his youngest son Jile the crown prince.
How did King Zuo Xian and King You Xian know that in order to protect the prince, they not only need to protect the prince, but also let the prince share power with Tou Man so that the father and son can check and balance each other. In this way, the two of them can secure their positions.
As for the general, he had already seen Mao Dun's ambition. He knew that if he wanted to secure the position of general, he could only choose another Mingzhu.
Mao Dun is the best choice. The general has decided to take refuge in Mao Dun. He will express his feelings as long as he sees Mao Dun next time.
At the same time, the general also knew Touman's plan. In order to prevent Touman's plan from succeeding, he decided to betray Touman together with Mao Dun.
This news told Meng Chongde and others that this Man would not live long even if he did not kill him. What was more important was to keep them alive and cause chaos to the Huns, so that they could take action at that time.
Immediately they decided to give up the assassination and set off with Zhahe.
There was only one thing they didn't know, and that was that Touman and the others were about to retreat. No one except a few important people knew about this.
By the time they all found out, it would be more than ten days later.
It didn't take so much time, mainly because Meng Tian wanted to unite the 30,000 Xiongnu army to survive.
In the end, relying on Meng Chongde's internal division and Meng Tian's dispatch of eloquent people to analyze the interests, it took more than ten days to successfully persuade this group of Huns soldiers to surrender.
Of course, Zhahe also surrendered. He was just a wallflower. He would defect to wherever it was advantageous. If the situation was favorable to the Qin army, he would defect to the Qin army. If the situation was favorable to the Xiongnu, he would defect to the Xiongnu.
When Meng Tian's army arrived at the foot of Yin Mountain, they found that there was no large army at the foot of Yin Mountain, and only a few shepherds were herding sheep. Upon inquiry, they found out that the Xiongnu army had retreated in more than ten days.
"It's really unexpected that they retreated," Meng Tian said.
"Father, why not set up camp here and let's wait for General Han and the others." Meng Chongde said.
Meng Tian nodded: "Okay, I'll send out some scouts and you go out too. The scouts will inquire about the situation, while you continue to persuade the remaining Huns. Those who don't surrender will be killed."
"promise."
However, Meng Tian and the others never dreamed that although Tou Man retreated, they did not retreat so peacefully.
The fiefdoms of King Zuo Xian and others were raided by a group of Mo Dao soldiers led by Han Xin.
Although the people did not die, a large number of cattle and sheep died. If the people were brought with them, the Xiongnu army would be defeated.
There was not enough food, but before the time reached the Yuezhi Kingdom, the Xiongnu army fell apart.
And the most important thing is that after meeting Mao Dun on the road, Touman was actually killed by Mao Dun. Not only that, Mo Dun also killed the Yan family, his half-brother, and the group of ministers and officials who disobeyed him. The leaders of various tribes.
The Huns army carried out a thorough purge, and now all the remaining people are those who support Moton.
Moreover, Maodun also married the daughters of two virtuous kings on his left and right, completely stabilizing the Huns.
However, their goal has not changed, and they will continue to send troops to deal with the Yuezhi Kingdom. As long as they deal with the Yuezhi Kingdom, the countries in the Western Regions will surrender, but at that time, they can borrow troops to attack the Qin army again.
But what they didn't know was that after Han Xin discovered the traces of the Xiongnu army, he followed them, and he followed them directly to Mobei, the former home of the Xiongnu.
Han Xin then led Mo Dao soldiers back to the border town. After Meng Tian learned of the situation, he dispatched a large army to attack the Xiongnu.
The Xiongnu who didn't know the situation were still fighting with the Yuezhi Kingdom. Suddenly, a large Qin army appeared behind them, which frightened them. Finally, after being encircled and suppressed by the Yuezhi and the Xiongnu, Maodun fled to Donghu with the remaining troops.
The Yuezhi Kingdom saw the power of the Qin army and immediately chose to surrender and decided to send envoys to the Qin Kingdom, Xianyang City.
But this was two years later, when Qin An had already appeared in the eyes of the world.
Back to a few months ago, the five Guiguzi people went down the mountain. Tang Bing, Wu Shi and Zhou Shu went to the Ministry of Education, while Guiguzi and Huang Shi went to see Qin An.
But the Ministry of Education is eager to make progress, but it is difficult to meet Qin An.
If you want to see Qin An, you have to cross the blockade of the Qin army led by Li Xin outside the village.
Guiguzi and Huangshi arrived outside Zhaojia Village according to their own calculations, but had no choice but to retreat because of the large army.
Huang Shi smiled and said, "No wonder we all concluded that we have no chance to meet the Emperor Master today."
Guiguzi also smiled and said: "That's true, but we don't know the reason, and now we know.
Old friend, what do you think, should we bypass this group of Qin soldiers and march in uninvited? Or go and say hello to the First Emperor? "
Huang Shi smiled and said: "Although it is difficult for the Qin army to capture us, it is difficult for us to gain the trust of the emperor's master, which is not good for us."
"Yes, we still have to go find Ying Zheng." Guiguzi said, "I had known that I would have to enter Xianyang City, so why not go with Tang Bing and the others."
"Haha..." Huang Shi laughed, "A dignified Guiguzi will also make miscalculations."
Guiguzi smiled and said: "I am also a human being, not a god. Old friend, let's go."
"Walk."
Xianyang City is now very lively, and people from hundreds of families have appeared one after another, famous and unknown, all want to join the Education Bureau, and all want to keep their proud works.
