Chapter 204 Zhao Miao's Helplessness

On the grassland, the royal court of the Huns.

In the depths of the desert thousands of miles away from the Great Wall, no matter how powerful Daqin's iron cavalry was, it would be difficult for them to extend their tentacles here.

After returning from the disastrous defeat in Longxi, the power of the Huns has been reshuffled.

Touman Chanyu's prestige was greatly damaged. In order to control the situation, Zuoxian King Maodun stepped forward and wiped out some desperate tribes one after another, so that the entire Xiongnu returned to a normal state again.

Touman knew that his position was unstable, so instead of continuing to insist, it would be more appropriate to abdicate directly and let Xian.

Therefore, he gave up the position of the Xiongnu Shanyu to Maodun.

The first thing Maodun did when he inherited the position of the Great Chanyu was to send troops south to seek revenge from Qin.

Many Xiongnu nobles stood up to oppose it.

In the past, the Xiongnu united with the Yuezhi tribe to assemble hundreds of thousands of troops, but they could not gain half of the advantage in the hands of the Qin army. Now that the Huns have lost their troops and lost their generals, if they want to seek revenge from them, it is really difficult for the current Xiongnu alone.

One side agrees and the other side opposes. Just when both sides are in anxiety, Touman's daughter, Princess Misha, who is known as the flower of the grassland, stands up and agrees with her brother Modun's plan.At the same time, he also told all the barbarians in the grassland about the latest situation in Qin.

The state of Qin is no longer the state of Qin in the past. Now the tree has fallen and the monkeys are scattered. This big tree is now riddled with holes.In the northern border, the Qin army has all withdrawn, and the prosperous land is completely undefended. In this case, the Xiongnu's cavalry is absolutely invincible.

Misha's words made all the Huns see hope. Taking advantage of this excellent opportunity, Maodun quickly mobilized an army of [-] troops, and took the opportunity to quickly move south, aiming directly at the north of the Great Wall.

The Qin army near the Great Wall had already withdrawn, and now thousands of miles were deserted, and the cavalry of the Huns went south quickly. In a few days, they regained Hetao and occupied Shangjun and Jiuyuan of Qin.

When the news spread to the Central Plains, the world was shocked.

The Huns have always been enemies of the Central Plains Dynasty, and the two sides can be said to be immortal, but this powerful enemy has always been resisted by the three of Zhao Yanqin.

Since the unification of the Qin State, the Great Wall in the north has been continuously reinforced. Many people in the Qin State feel that this is a waste of money and people.

But now they know that they really did something bad.

In Julu City, Zhao Miao was summoning the old Ministry of Zhao State there.

The two countries of Wei and Chu restored their country one after another. As the second most powerful country in the late Warring States period, Zhao would be underestimated if they didn't seize the time to restore their country.

"Everyone, Qin State has given up Shangjun and Jiuyuan. These places are the territory of our Zhao State. This king has thought about it for a long time. If he wants to revive our great Zhao foundation, he must first gain a foothold in these two places."

"What the king said is true."

"But my lord, the main force of the Qin army is in the east of the river. If we attack Shangjun and Jiuyuan, the Qin army will inevitably not attack us. If the Qin army comes to attack, we may not be able to resist it!"

"Yes, the Qin army is so powerful, how can we be their opponents."

Zhao Miao looked at the group of people in front of him with helplessness in his eyes.

Once upon a time, Zhao and Qin were the most powerful countries in the world.Although Zhao's national strength and territory are not as good as Qin's, Zhao's military strength is no worse than Qin's.

But now, the descendants of the princes and princes of the Zhao Kingdom have fallen to the point where they have turned pale when they talked about Qin.

Can Da Zhao still have a chance of revival?
"The current goal of the Qin army is to consolidate the land in Guanzhong. They are too busy to take care of themselves. How can they fight us. It is the most suitable time to attack. I intend to gather the [-] troops under our command and march towards Shangjun. First occupy Shangjun. Take Jiuyuan again."

Zhao Miao made a decision, and it was naturally impossible for everyone to say anything against it.

"Your Majesty, I admire you."

"I'll admire it."

Regardless of whether they really surrendered or not, everyone agreed at this moment.

Seeing everyone, Zhao Miao finally let out a sigh of relief and said: "Okay, since everyone agrees, we are ready to start immediately. After Taiyuan is conquered, it will be the time for my great Zhao to re-establish the country."

"Long live the king, long live the great Zhao."

Just as everyone was cheering, a guard quickly ran in from outside.

"Big, Your Majesty, it's incredible."

"What does it look like in a panic?" Zhao Miao frowned, looking at the guards and said dissatisfied.

The guard didn't bother to wipe the sweat from his forehead and quickly explained: "Your Majesty, the Huns, the Huns conquered Shangjun and Jiuyuan, and now the soldiers are heading south to the east of the river."

"What?" Zhao Miao stood up in surprise and looked at the guard in front of him speechless for a long time.

And the many courtiers of Zhao Guo beside him also showed expressions of astonishment.

They had just made a plan to attack Shangjun Jiuyuan. Now that the Qin army didn't come, they didn't expect the Huns to come first.

"Your Majesty, what should we do?"

"Yes, my lord, shall we still fight Jiuyuan and Shangjun?"

Looking at the crowd in front of him, Zhao Miao felt as if ten thousand muddy horses were galloping in his heart.

The Qin army is very strong, but the Huns are not weak either!
Not to mention millions of armored men, they still have at least hundreds of thousands of cavalry.

Zhao Guo would not be afraid if he still had 20 flying cavalry in hand, but now they only have [-] soldiers, how can they be the opponents of the Huns.

"How many troops did the Huns send?"

"At least 15 people."

After the guard's words came out, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Shangjun was the barrier of Zhao State in the past.

If Shangjun falls, the situation in Zhaojun will be critical.

The Huns were not fools. They knew that there were hundreds of thousands of Qin troops in the east of the river. If they attacked, they would be asking for their own death.

But Zhao County is different.

The Qin army in the You Dynasty was too far away, and now the Qin army in various places is on the defensive and will never interfere in the affairs of Zhao Jun and the Central Plains.

If the Huns came to kill them, it would be absolutely difficult to withstand the pressure of the attack only by relying on the defense in Zhaojun City.

Unlike the Qin army fighting, the Qin army may still have a way out if they catch them, but the Huns will definitely kill them if they catch them.

"If we knew this, we shouldn't have left Xianyang. At least Xianyang is protected by the Qin army, so we wouldn't be in danger." A Zhao nobleman whispered.

"That's right, I didn't want to leave at first, and I blamed you for forcing me away. It's all right now, everyone is out of luck."

"How about we go to Dai County? There are Qin troops stationed there, no matter how courageous these Huns are, they can't attack Dai County!"

Everyone said what they said, without any shyness about Zhao Miao who was next to him, speaking in frustration.

Sitting at the front, Zhao Miao's face was ashen, looking at the group of subordinates in front of him, his eyes were full of anger.

He really wanted to teach these people a lesson, but he also knew that the people of the Zhao country were unstable. If he vented his anger, the people might become distracted, and the possibility of rebuilding the Zhao country would be even lower.

Resisting his anger, Zhao Miao showed a smile and said: "You don't need to worry too much, we can go to Daijun first, my country of Zhao has the support of the people there, it will be easier to restore the country, and I believe that the Huns will never dare Invade Dai County."

Everyone had long been terrified by the sudden change, and when they heard what Zhao Miao said, they immediately agreed.
