"Send my order and speed up! Get to the defined location before dark!"
After taking out the map and checking the direction again, Liu Deng did not dare to neglect and directly ordered to speed up.
Entering the Hetao area, this area is already under the control of the Huns. This is the first time the Han Dynasty has sent troops to the Huns in recent years.
Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, until now, this is the first time that the Han Dynasty has targeted the land of the Xiongnu.
Whether successful or not, their feat will be remembered in history books.
"Your Majesty, the open terrain here is indeed a good place for building a city. You see, the land here, although it has not been cultivated, is actually so fertile. If we can control this place, within three to five years, this place will become the largest capital of our country. Granary!"
Since it was time to build a city, it was natural to bring along a few officials who were skilled in building a city.
Wang Ziyun is considered to be the most proficient architect in Dai Kingdom. His family has been doing this job for generations. Although he is not well-known in the court, he is almost unknown.
However, this is indeed a person who can do practical things. He is the general builder of Daiguo Academy.
However, something unexpected happened this time, and Liu Deng had no choice but to second him temporarily.
"What Ziyun said is right, but our top priority is to establish a firm foothold here first. After we have a firm foothold, we will build two more fortresses in the southeast and northwest, and three cities to watch and help each other. The large area in between Can’t we grow crops in this area?”
"Mr. Wang is indeed right. This is indeed a good land, but it is not easy to hold it..."
Li Guang was not as optimistic as them. At this time, he was extremely alert for fear of a sudden attack by the Huns.
"Don't worry, even if the Huns find us in a short time, they won't act rashly! They are more scared than us at this time!"
Liu Deng once again received several pieces of accurate information along the way, even though Liu Deng had already imagined Wang Chong and his team's combat power to be very high.
However, this time they still gave Liu Deng a big surprise.
"My lord, do you have any good news?"
Hearing what Liu Deng said, Li Guang asked quickly.
"See for yourself! It's hard to imagine how magnificent the Great Qin Rui Shi was back then..."
Liu Deng said, took out a note from his sleeve and handed it to Li Guang.
"How is this possible? Three thousand cavalry entered and exited seven times among the Huns, completely scattering King Aries' 10,000 cavalry! When did the Huns become so easy to kill?"
Li Guang was completely confused when he saw the content above.
Even Liu Deng was speechless. Although he didn't want to believe it was true, it was indeed the fact.
Although the Huns still had the advantage in strength and completely surrounded them in the Yinshan Mountains, and they were not that far away from here, only more than 150 miles in total.
However, Liu Deng did not plan to directly send troops to support at this time.
Not far away is the surging Yellow River, and across the river is the Henan Plain.
What Liu Deng wants to do now is to build a city on this narrow plain between the Yinshan Mountains and the Yellow River.
With this city as a foundation, he could encroach step by step, and within three or two years, he would be able to bring the Hetao Plain into the Han's sphere of influence without losing any blood.
After all, with the current level of science and technology, it is impossible to build a stone bridge over the Yellow River.
Usually when the Huns crossed, they would take advantage of the dry season of the Yellow River to return.
In order to wipe out Wang Chong's tribe this time, the Huns put in a lot of effort and mobilized almost all the troops that could be mobilized north of the river and south of the Yin Mountain.
Everyone was led by Yi Zhixie, who had just won the battle. Most of the tribes of King Aries and King Loufan were not on the north bank, but they still gathered 50,000 people.
"Report! Report back to the king, we captured a spy. He claimed to be a businessman from our country and came here to explore the terrain on the order of the king!"
While several people were talking, a scout suddenly came from the front to report.
"Bring him here!"
Liu Deng suddenly became energetic. Of course, for such an important matter, he had to send someone to investigate in advance.
This businessman named Zhou Wenjie was the candidate specially arranged by Liu Deng.
They have been communicating with Aries King Loufan all year round, isn't it just for today?
"Grassman Zhou Wenjie meets the king!"
Not long ago, a middle-aged man who was tied up came over with tears in his eyes.
"Who asked you to tie him up? Untie him quickly!"
Seeing the way his clothes were tied up, Liu Deng quickly waved his hands to let him untie them.
After all, although on the surface they are just a group of businessmen, secretly what they do for the country is not much easier than these soldiers who serve as soldiers and feed themselves.
Even if the soldiers died in battle, as long as it was not a big rout, there would always be a corpse left behind. But if their identities were exposed, I am afraid that the only fate would be to be killed by the Huns and thrown on the grassland to be fed. Wolf.
This is a real head-in-the-waistband business, and such awareness should indeed be given some due courtesy.
"Don't be offended. This is good for you and everyone! Just accept some grievances. I will celebrate your success when you get back!"
Seeing Du Ziteng and the others hurried forward to untie him, Liu Deng got off his horse and came to help him straighten his clothes.
"The common people know it. Your Majesty, you don't need to say anything more. This is the terrain that I have discovered. Please take a look at it, Your Majesty!"
Zhou Wenjie didn't waste any time. He simply took off his robe and tore open the lining of the robe, revealing a large map inside.
This small map not only marked the location of the Xiongnu tribe, but also marked numerous wells and rivers. It seemed that they suffered a lot along the way.
"Please see, Your Majesty, this is where we discovered the ore veins. The terrain is open and it should be the best choice to build a cement kiln!"
Zhou Wenjie didn't say any more nonsense and pointed to the place where the triangle area was drawn on the map.
"Very good. You have made a great contribution this time. You don't have to participate in the rest. Just do your own thing!"
After all, they have been dealing with the Aries King Loufan Wangbu for so many years. It would be a real pity if this relationship network was completely severed like this.
Even if this city is established, Liu Deng must prepare for the next step to take over the Henan Plain!
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty!"
Zhou Wenjie didn't say much, he cupped his hands towards Liu Deng, then stood up and left.
"Your Majesty, with this map, our next actions will be much easier!"
