Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 523 Wuhuan's Confidence

Hearing Lou Ban's slightly accusatory question, Su Puyan and Nan Lou who were present were all sweating for Lou Ban, fearing that Ta Dun would feel angry because of it.

Unexpectedly, instead of being angry, Ta Dun looked at Lou Ban with a bit more relief, and said, "Oh? That's right, our army of cavalry is here, and eating horses and chewing horses for a day is indeed a lot of money. , Then tell me, what should we do now?"

Encouraged by Ta Dun, Lou Ban became more courageous, and after thinking about it for a while, he said what he had thought up a long time ago: "Brother, I think we have only two ways, either to capture Ji Town, Kill Yuan Tanna, so that when we return to the grassland, even if the Huns come back, we also have the capital to boast, or we can take our current harvest and return to the grassland, so that even if the Huns return, we will have the confidence Go to war with them."

Hearing Lou Ban's words, both Su Boyan and Nan Lou fell into deep thought. After a while, they looked at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Never expected that Prince Lou Ban, who has always been mediocre, would say such reasonable words.

Among other things, at least being able to consider the return of the Huns is already one level above the two of them.

And Ta Dun was obviously a little surprised by Lou Ban's words, but he was more relieved.

It seems that my daily reminders are still somewhat effective.

Although Lou Ban's thinking seems to him to be a bit immature.

Ta Dun said slowly: "You can say this, which proves that you have really thought about it. This is very good, but it is not enough. Let me ask you, what do you think is the purpose of our going south this time?"

When Lou Ban heard Ta Dun's praise, he was delighted at first, but after hearing Ta Dun's question, he showed a look of bewilderment.

If he can say what he said just now, he is already dead. I don’t know how many brain cells are there, okay?

Now I have to ask myself what is the purpose of going south.

Are you Lord Wuhuan or am I Lord Wuhuan?
Seeing Lou Ban not speaking for a long time, he sighed. Although he was a little disappointed, it was still within his acceptable range.

He waved his hand to signal Lou Ban to return to his seat, took a look at the three kings below, and said in a deep voice, "Are we going south this time to kill Yuan Tan?"

The three kings immediately shook their heads.

Just kidding, when we attacked Xiangping before, we originally thought that Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang had left, and no one would smuggle weapons for him in the future.

Thinking of buying the bottom to get his mother's vote at the end.

How could Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang have been operating in Northern Xinjiang for so many years, turning the originally indestructible Han Northern Border into such a mess?

We are also very surprised to be able to achieve such a result, okay?
Seeing the three kings shaking their heads, Tadun showed a smile, tapped the table in front of him with his fingers, and said in a deep voice: "The purpose of our coming this time at the beginning was just to steal more women's property. When the Xiongnu go south, we have the strength to prevent the Xiongnu from attacking us, at least we can counterattack one or two times, have we achieved our goal now?"

Three kings, look at me, and I look at you. In the end, Lou Ban, the highest-status, said cautiously, "Have you reached it?"

Ta Dun nodded, shook his head again, and said, "It's true to say that we have achieved it, but what we have gained now is not enough for us to deal with the Huns' attack after we go back."

Ta Dun's tone was somewhat sighing: "We Wuhuan people have only used iron weapons in these years. Before that, we used bronze weapons bought by the Huns. This is the fundamental reason why we have been unable to defeat the Huns from the beginning to the end. , but now, we have a chance."

Ta Dun waved his hand, and a Wuhuan cavalryman hurriedly stepped forward and unfolded a roll of maps for him. Ta Dun pointed his finger at the location of Ji Town, and said in a cold voice, "Ji Town was arranged by the prime minister of the Han people, Yuan Shao, for more than ten years. The army of ten thousand is guarding, but now we have received information that the army of more than one hundred thousand has been dilapidated, and it is not suitable for a battle, but the people are useless, but their weapons and armor are still useful!"

Hearing Tadun mentioning Jizhen's armament storage, the three kings were taken aback for a moment, and then their breaths became short of breath involuntarily!
This time Wuhuan went south, he said he dispatched [-] cavalry.

But how many people are there in Wuhuan of the three counties?Could it be that there are only one hundred thousand?
Of course not!
Just the Wuhuan men who can ride horses and shoot bows, with the stability of the frontiers and the multiplication of various tribes over the years, the number of Wuhuan young and strong who can go to battle has reached 50!

If you add the old and weak women and children in the tribe, the total population of Wuhuan will once again break through the million mark nearly 200 years after Huo Qubing defeated the Xiongnu in the Western Han Dynasty and sealed off the wolves as Xuxu!

There is only one reason why only one hundred thousand cavalry were brought south.

That is Wuhuan's current armor reserve, which cannot be armed with 50 cavalry at all!
But what if Ji Town is captured and the military equipment that Ji Town has been stored in?
Thinking of the scene of 20 Wuhuan iron cavalry roaring and charging, the eyes of the three kings turned slightly red, and even their breathing became heavy!
Seeing that the enthusiasm of the three kings was successfully mobilized by him, the corners of Ta Dun's mouth could not help but evoke a smile.

Why are the Wuhuan people afraid of the Huns?

It is because of the background of the Xiongnu that even after being defeated by Yuan Tan, they can take out more than [-] cavalry to go south, return to their old pastures, and even go one step further and enter the Central Plains!
During this period, Xianbei and Wuhuan can be turned into their servants again!
But what if the Wuhuan people also have more than [-] or even more than [-] cavalry?

Thinking of myself, or my successors, one day, the Huns can be my little brothers, running around under my command.

Even though Ta Dun is already old, he can't help but feel his heart surge!
However, after the excitement, Lou Ban, who was the first to calm down, couldn't help asking a question.

"Brother, although Jizhen's defense is weak right now, if we really kill Yuan Tan, Yuan Shao will definitely retaliate against us. Although the Han people are weak, they are armed, and their strength is not to be underestimated."

Hearing Lou Ban's words, Su Puyan and Nan Lou immediately expressed anxiety.

Su Puyan, who was the most irritable, hurried out of the queue, saluted Ta Dun and said, "Your Majesty, Prince Louban is just in a hurry and has absolutely no intention of underestimating us Wuhuan people. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

After Lou Ban uttered that sentence, he also realized the problem in his words, and was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground to plead guilty.

However, instead of getting angry, Ta Dun showed a smile on the contrary, he laughed and said: "Get up, get up, Lou Ban, don't be afraid, you are right, then Yuan Tan is the eldest son of Yuan Shao, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and even more so from their Yuan family." If we kill him, just like they killed you, Lou Ban, I will do my best to avenge you, but..."

Ta Dun changed the subject and said with a sneer, "What if we don't fight him at all?"

Nanlou, Su Buyan and Lou Ban were stunned when they heard this.

Ta Dun said earnestly: "The grassland is very big, big enough to support us Wuhuan, Xianbei, Huns and even Qiang people, but it is still so vast that we can't see the border. No matter how powerful the Han cavalry is, at worst we go to the north. In the farther north, if you hide for a few years, no matter how many Han Chinese cavalry, how many years can they persist on this vast grassland?"

After saying this, Ta Dun looked at Lou Ban, and said earnestly, "My brother, you remember, we grassland people will not be defeated by the Han people, because our god is the grassland, and the grassland will always protect us. For us, as long as the grasslands are not destroyed, the Han people will never be able to destroy us!"

However, after saying this, Tadun suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart for some unknown reason.

That burst of throbbing directly interrupted Ta Dun's next rhetoric, and made him stop the action that he originally wanted to stand up and wave his hands to give orders.

And almost the same time.

Just walking out of the small courtyard, waiting to meet the envoy from Yecheng, which surprised Yuan Tan himself, also sneezed a few times heavily.

Rubbing his nose, Yuan Tan murmured a little strangely: "It's strange, who is talking about me?"

After looking around and touching his forehead to confirm that he was not infected with the wind and cold, Yuan Tan, who was relieved, put the matter aside and walked towards the mansion where he placed the envoy in Yecheng.
