    "Your Highness, those Han people have come a long way after all. There are only so many of them. There are fifty or sixty thousand people eating horse chews. I don't believe they can carry more than two months' worth of food and grass!"

    Morrie said decisively.

    "But we have lost so many cattle and sheep. If we mobilize another army at this time, the tribes nearby will not be able to supply it"

    When thinking of this, Yu Dan felt useless again.

    "If they hadn't lost so many cattle and sheep to Long Xiao's sneak attack before, they could still afford to lose a few more 50,000 troops at this time.

    "Your Highness, isn't this the place where King Aries and King Loufan belong? If we fight them here, shouldn't they provide some cattle and sheep?"

    Yu Dan lowered his voice and said.

    "Very good! Send me the prince's order to mobilize another 50,000 troops from within a thousand miles! Send someone to inform King Loufan and King Aries to send me 200,000 cattle and sheep within half a month!  "

    Yu Dan gritted his teeth. Liu Deng was right in front of him. If he still let him run away this time, how could he talk about inheriting the throne of the Huns in the future?

    "No!"

    Seeing that Yu Dan finally agreed, the remaining captains quickly stopped talking nonsense and immediately turned around and started working on their own.

    In the next few days, outside the Han army's camp, the Huns once again established a joint camp, and the two sides seemed to have fallen into some strange balance.

    Liu Deng welcomes the peace of the Huns. After all, it takes time for them to build a city.

    Although they didn¡¯t carry much food and grass, Liu Deng didn¡¯t panic at all.

    ¡°In fact, when the last resort came, they still had a large number of horses to slaughter.

    But the Huns are different. Although the terrain here is open and the pastures are fertile, the problem is that the pastures nearby cannot support so many cattle, sheep, and horses.

    Most of what the Han army carried was grain, but the main food of the Huns was cattle and sheep!

    The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there is no way to preserve meat for a long time.

    The nearby pastures cannot support so many cattle and sheep, but if they are slaughtered in large numbers, they cannot be preserved for a long time. The Huns are destined not to last long.

    ??Besides, although Beidi County and Shang County have been completely disrupted, they should be able to restore basic order in a month or two at most.

    At that time, if the Huns still dare to confront them here.  If Zhou Yafu really took advantage of them, they would all be miserable.

    Yu Dan mobilized an army as the prince of the Huns. There is nothing to say about this kind of thing. How could the nearby tribes dare to offend him?

    Even Yu Dan¡¯s forced extortion of King Aries and King Loufan Niuyang was suppressed by Yi Zhixie forcefully.

    When he heard the news, Yu Dan was silent for a long time. He knew in his heart that this was not a shoe helping him, but a shoe waiting to laugh at him.

    Ten days passed. The Huns brought a large number of cattle and sheep, and then recruited a large number of troops.

    Eighty thousand Xiongnu troops surrounded Liu Deng's camp, but they still showed no sign of attacking.

    "Your Majesty, our army only has ten days of food reserves"

    Um.  The city has been besieged by the Huns. Even though Li Guang had begun to save food consciously, he still couldn't stop the food consumption rate. After all, it was not an easy task to feed these 50,000 mouths.

    "Isn't there still ten days left? In two or three days at most, even if our city is completed, I think it's time for Zhou Yafu to move around!"

    Liu Deng is still very confident about Zhou Yafu, after all, the king himself is here now.

    This is the reason why he insists on coming here in person this time.

    If he had not been here personally, it would be difficult to say how the imperial court would treat this new city in the end.

    After all, this is just a small city less than ten miles away. Instead of spending a lot of resources here, the ministers in the court are probably more willing to give up completely.

    But with Liu Deng here, at least the wealthy families in Chang'an City must agree with Zhou Yafu's action of sending troops this time!

    Liu Deng forcibly tied himself to this city, and by the way, he pulled all the shareholders of SF Express onto this chariot.

    Although he also knows thisIt is indeed very risky to do it, but the problem is that if he doesn't do it, Liu Deng really can't think of a better plan.

    ¡°After all, in matters like government affairs, it is often not up to the emperor to do whatever he wants.

    "At least as far as the current emperor is concerned, his grasp of the imperial army is far less stable than that of the emperor who lived through the ages.

    But this was also determined by the unique political system of the Han Dynasty. Before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty reformed the system, the number of courtiers was too large.

    So big that if they united together, they would be enough to influence the emperor's will.

    Although it seems a bit pseudo-scientific, we have to admit that most of the time the truth is often in the hands of a few people.

    At the very least, looking at the Han Dynasty, if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had not been determined to insist on using troops against the Xiongnu,

    Even if they did not hesitate to reform the political system and consolidate all power in the emperor, if it were another person, it is estimated that even if the Xiongnu problem continued until the Three Kingdoms period, it is unlikely that any emperor would be able to make up his mind to destroy the descendants of the Xiongnu.

    "Your Majesty, are you saying that Zhou Yafu will bring troops to help?"

    Li Guang¡¯s eyes suddenly widened. If troops were sent from Beidi County to help, the road would be too far. If they were ambushed by the Huns, the entire Beidi County would be burned to the ground again.

    "Why did he come here? Don't you think it would be more effective if Zhou Yafu made a surprise attack here?"

    Liu Deng looked at the sand table in front of him and suddenly smiled evilly.

    "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

    Li Guang¡¯s face was full of disbelief. Isn¡¯t the position pointed by Liu Deng¡¯s hand exactly in the center of the Hetao Plain?

    "Zhou Yafu doesn't need to come over at all. He only needs to lead his troops to surprise the Aries King's station. They don't even need to fight at all. Even if there is a slight disturbance, do you think the Aries King can still sit still?"

    No matter what, this is the territory of King Aries, and almost all the Xiongnu tribe here are subordinates of King Aries.

    If the Aries King heard that something happened to his hometown, would he still be able to calm down and be at the mercy of Yu Dan and Yizhixie?

    You must know that whether it is King Aries, King Loufan, or King Hunxie, they are not Huns!

    "It's just because of the strong strength in their hands that they were named princes after taking refuge with the Xiongnu. But what if the strength in their hands is no longer there?"

    Can they still enjoy their wealthy jobs?

    On the one hand, they use their own people to work for the Huns, and whether they win or lose, it has nothing to do with them.

    On the other side is your own nest, which is eagerly waiting for rescue. Do you still need to settle this account?

    "Report! Zhou Yafu led 30,000 troops to surprise Haizili. We, our tribe"

    "What happened to our tribe? Tell me clearly!"

    The Aries King, who was enjoying the wine and food, suddenly stood up, grabbed the scout's collar, and asked fiercely.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
