    Ma Liu was a master of setting fires, or God helped him. When the fire was lit, a strong wind came as expected. The grassland in autumn was already extremely dry, and any spark could turn into a huge fire. As a result, the wind  With the power of the fire and the power of the wind, the fire burned all the way north, turning everything along the way into ashes. The fire burned for three days and nights, and the grassland with a radius of more than 200 miles was completely destroyed.  It turned black, and until it encountered a river, the unstoppable fire demon stopped helplessly.

    Everything in the world is so strange. God always pushes you in the opposite direction. Some people can't bear it, but they become masters of arson. Some people want to live a happy life, but the current situation turns them into a murderer.  god!

    This is fate and luck!

    In any case, the fire really slowed down the Huns. The Huns never carried food and baggage when sending troops. The war horses were their feet, and the cattle and sheep accompanying the army were their dry food. But whether it was war horses or cattle and sheep,  , there must be sufficient pasture for grazing. Now the pasture two hundred miles outside Yanmen Pass has been reduced to ashes. This forced them to stop their progress and the whole army dispersed to harvest forage. After preparing a large amount of hay  , and then slowly approached the border. For this reason, the Huns army was delayed for five days; and five days was enough to affect the outcome of a war!

    The Huns came after all. On the eighth day when Xiao Yi took over the defense of Yanmen, the figures of the Huns cavalry appeared on the northern horizon. At first, there were dozens of scattered cavalry, but then the number became larger and larger, and the momentum also increased.  It is getting bigger and bigger, and the dust raised by the horses' hooves covers the sky and the sun. The cowhide tents are placed one next to the other. From a distance, it looks like mountains are pressing down on them, which makes people feel frightened!

    Outside the city, at the Huns camp, stepping on the scorched earth under their feet, looking at the giant pass in front of them like a giant beast, the great Chanyu-Hufro couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. The grassland is the lifeblood of the Huns, and the war is not yet going on.  From the beginning, the lifeline turned into a piece of scorched earth. This is not a good sign!

    This time the Huns went south to plunder all the elites. There were 60,000 cavalry, which was almost all the Huns had. To train a qualified cavalry, a mother on the grassland had to spend 20 years of hard work.  Years of time, but a small arrow cluster can make all these disappear, so if it is not necessary, he will never let his cavalry attack the Han people's city head-on. The cost of doing so is really too high.  Got it!

    Humphrey knew very well how many Han people there were and how many Huns there were. Even if he exchanged ten for one of himself, he could easily wipe out all the Huns, so he decided to use a strategy to capture this great pass.  A smart wolf king, in addition to crazy biting and fighting, should also learn to use his voice to scare his prey. The three words "wolf is coming" are sometimes more terrifying than the wolf itself!

    "Who is the Han guard at Yanmen Pass? How many Han troops are stationed here now?" On a high slope, Yu Fulo put up a pergola with his hands and was carefully watching the defense of Yanmen Pass. Dozens of people behind him  The kings and chiefs of various Xiongnu tribes were lined up on both sides, doing the same thing. Last year, their large army broke through the pass from here and plundered the counties in the interior. Therefore, facing this majestic pass, there were not many Huns.  Fear, a place that has been conquered by oneself, what is there to be afraid of?

    "Reporting to the Great Chanyu, since Yanmen Pass was conquered and demolished by us last year, the newly appointed governor Zhang Yang rebuilt it and moved a large number of people to live and guard the border. Later, Zhang Yang was promoted to the governor of Bingzhou, and this place was handed over to him.  A close friend, Mu Shun, reported from the spies that there are probably more than 10,000 Han troops in Yanmen Pass, and there are also more than 40,000 ordinary Han people who are as timid as lambs."

    King Youxian Huchuquan, as one of the strong contenders to be the next Great Chanyu of the Huns, will naturally not let go of such an opportunity to perform. He is already forty years old this year and looks very similar to his brother Yufuluo.  They are all so tough and brave, but compared with the great Chanyu-Hufro, he is a little less steady and a little more irritable.

    It¡¯s no wonder King Youxian, Hu Chuquan, is grumpy and time waits for no one!  Due to various reasons, the average life span of the Huns is very short. Even nobles generally find it difficult to live beyond the age of fifty. He is already forty years old today and may be killed by the great Kunlun at any time.  God summoned him away, but his brother Humphrey, who was several years older than him, was extremely strong. He could ride a strong horse, shoot a hard bow, and could even eat a lamb in one meal!

    Every time he sees that majestic body, King Youxian Huchuquan almost loses the courage to persevere. It is estimated that even if he dies, his brother Shanyu will still be alive and well, and his competition  His opponent, Zuo Xianwang Liu Bao, has a great advantage in age.Soon, a short, fat, bald, thick-necked Huns envoy with gold rings in his ears came up with several servants. The envoy also held a very delicate riding whip in his hand. According to the custom of the Huns, a large horse whip came up.  Chanyu's riding whip is the messenger's token. With this riding whip, you can order other tribes that submit to the Xiongnu royal court, and can even whip those disobedient chiefs. It is as effective as the gold medal given by the Han Dynasty!

    "The name of this messenger is 'Hu Tu Hu'. He was born from heaven and earth, made by the sun and the moon. Under the protection of the great Kunlun God, the Xiongnu Great Chanyu ordered. General of the Han family, as long as you are willing to open the city and surrender, I will give you the heart in your heart."  With your loyalty and the sword in your hand, my Shanyu will make you king and allocate you a territory on the grassland, where you can herd horses and sheep and live happily from now on!"

    The Huns envoy 'Hu Tu Hu' raised the whip in his hand and stammered what he meant in broken Chinese. He was very satisfied with this mission. In his opinion, under the pressure of the army, this Han general  He will inevitably choose to surrender; when the time comes, he can just take the opportunity to ask for some benefits. Aren't the Han people particular about treating guests and giving gifts? Moreover, the Han general in front of him is smiling at him, touching his nose while smiling, it seems  He looks very shy and reserved. It should be easy to deal with such a person

    He took the whip from the Huns envoy. The latter seemed very angry, but was immediately restrained by the soldiers around Xiao Yi with knives. It seemed that these Huns were also afraid of death!

    The whip is good. The white bone whip handle should come from some kind of ferocious beast. There is a faint scent of wilderness in it. The whip body is twisted out of fine cowhide bit by bit. The workmanship is very fine and it feels good in the hand.  It was very comfortable. Xiao Yi was surprised that the Huns could produce such exquisite handicrafts. It seemed that these thick and short bow-legged people were not just good at herding horses and sheep!

    "I have accepted the gift, but unfortunately, I was born and raised in the Han region, and I have never been able to herd horses or sheep, so I can only accept your kindness"  It's disrespectful! It's a pity that I'm very poor and have no wealth. My mentor taught me two things back then. One is to read and write, so as to promote the poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and music of my Han family; the other is to play with knives and use them.  Come to kill the enemy and protect the country. Since the envoy is here, I have no respect for you, so let¡¯s try this second sample!"

    After saying this, Xiao Yi's expression suddenly changed, and murderous intent emerged in his eyes. He pulled out the 'Greedy Wolf' sword with his backhand, and slashed with his hand. The Hun envoy's frightened head rolled to the ground. Even to the death, he could not understand that the Han people were not particular about  Is it because the two countries are at odds with each other?  Why does this Han general not obey the rules?

    Several servants brought by the Huns envoy were immediately executed by Xiao Yi's soldiers as if they were chopping melons and vegetables. They carefully wiped the blood on the swords with silk, and then Xiao Yi said slowly: "Cut the heads."  Hang them all on the city wall and tell the Huns to start a war!"
