When Junchen Chanyu heard the words of the soldier in front of him, he was shocked.
Yet another tribe was slaughtered, two tribes were slaughtered. This was nearly 5,000 Xiongnu people!
The Xiongnu had a small population, and five thousand people could provide at least one thousand outstanding Xiongnu warriors!
Now that so many commoners had been killed or injured, he was in a bad mood!
However, while he was shocked, he was slightly relieved that the situation of the Han army was now clear.
It was only a 2,000-man Han army. The commander of this Han army was really bold!
Which general of the border county was it?
Junchen Chanyu thought with a deep expression.
"Alright, I understand. Tell General Zuo that we must destroy this Han army and then ask him to bring the head of this Han army general to me!”
Junchen Chanyu waved his hand at the soldier in front of him.
"Yes, Chief Chanyu!"
The Xiongnu soldier quickly left the tent.
Seeing the soldier leave, the Chief was no longer in the mood to enjoy the exquisite pastries. He left the king's tent with a bad expression.
Although he was not in a good mood, the military minister was not too worried. General Zuo had already led his troops to chase after them. In a day or two, General Zuo would definitely catch up and destroy this Han army.
However, he still sent people to inform the various Xiongnu dignitaries, telling them to inform the tribes within their sphere of influence to maintain vigilance in case they were attacked by the Han army.
After that, he sat in the court of the Chief, quietly waiting for the news of the destruction of the Han army. He wanted to see which general of the Han Dynasty dared to be so bold and arrogant as to lead the army into the Xiongnu grasslands.
Until noon, there was still no news. Because of this, the military minister Chanyu was in a bad mood and drank a lot of wine to relieve his boredom.
Until evening!
Ta…
A warhorse entered Dragon City at high speed and arrived in front of the Golden Eagle King's tent.
The soldiers quickly dismounted from their horses and reported to the king before quickly entering the tent.
At this moment, in the main tent!
The military minister Chanyu was sitting on the throne and drinking with a few ministers. He was also waiting for news from the front!
When the soldier entered, his sharp eyes immediately fixed on him. He guessed that it was a message from the front.
However, looking at him, the military minister Chanyu frowned slightly. Why was there no joy on this Xiongnu soldier's face other than fatigue?
What was going on?
Just as he was feeling a little strange, the Xiongnu soldier who had rushed into the king's tent hurriedly said,
"Great Chanyu, bad news. The Han army suddenly attacked the Solitary Tribe. Nearly 5,000 people from the Solitary Tribe were slaughtered!”
" What?!"
"What did you say?"
General Shan Yu stood up with his eyes wide open. Wasn't it the news of the Han army being destroyed?
It was actually news of his tribe being slaughtered again! Moreover, it was a tribe of more than 5,000 people. This was no longer a small tribe!
Even a tribe like this could send out 1,000 elite Xiongnu cavalry, not to mention that the Xiongnu people were good at riding and shooting. Even if the majority of the tribe were old, weak, women, and children, 5,000 people could still form a powerful fighting force!
The other party only had a mere 2,000 people. How could they slaughter a tribe with so many people so easily?
"When did this happen?”
General Chanyu asked coldly.
"Reporting to the Great Chanyu, before dawn, the Han army attacked the Solitary Tribe while they were sleeping!”
The soldier said in a panic!
"Damn it! Damn it! Were the people of the Lonely Tribe pigs? Did they not even arrange for guards? How could they let the Han army charge in so easily?”
Junchen Chanyu was extremely furious by this bad news!
A tribe of five thousand people! Five thousand Xiongnu citizens! This was the most precious wealth of the Xiongnu!
Adding on the 5,000 casualties from before, nearly 10,000 Xiongnu people had died in the hands of this Han army!
Thinking of this, the Chief felt his heart palpitate and ache. In two days, nearly ten thousand Xiongnu people had been killed. This…
" Reporting to the Great Chief, I heard from the people of the Lonely Tribe that the Han army was dressed like the Xiongnu people, so they didn't pay attention to it. Therefore…"
The Xiongnu soldier looked at the furious and terrifying appearance of the Great Chanyu and trembled.
The military minister Chanyu's face was extremely gloomy when he heard this. He stared at the Xiongnu soldier and asked coldly,
"Where is General Zuo? Why hadn't General Zuo caught up to the Han army?”
"Replying to the Great…Great Chanyu, General Zuo asked me to tell the Great Chanyu that this Han army is different from the past. They don't carry any extra baggage and are extremely fast.”
"General Zuo also asked me to report to the Chief Chanyu and ask him to order the various tribes to send out cavalry to encircle and suppress this Han army. At the same time, take precautions!”
Although the Xiongnu soldier's heart trembled, he still reported the Left General's words to the Chief.
When Junchen Chanyu heard this, his expression changed!
He was very clear about General Zuo's ability. He would definitely do his best to chase after the Han army as soon as he received the news. Now, even he had not caught up with the Han army. It was obvious that the Han army was very fast.
"Damn it! When did the Han army become so reckless?”
Junchen Chanyu shouted angrily. In his impression, wherever the Han army fought, the grain and supplies would be transported. This time, they did not even bring the grain and supplies.
It was obvious that this Han army was feeding on the Xiongnu's cattle and sheep!
After the Xiongnu soldier finished speaking, the expressions of the officials in the king's tent changed drastically. They were furious and incredulous.
In two days, he had slaughtered three tribes of the Xiongnu. Nearly ten thousand Xiongnu people had been killed. This was simply shocking!
If the other party had sent out an army, they would not have been too angry. But now, the other party only had a mere 2,000 men!
Two thousand men had slaughtered nearly ten thousand Xiongnu people, and this made them furious!
"Chief Chanyu, immediately send out many cavalry to encircle and suppress this Han army!”
"That's right, Da Dan Yu. Order all the troops to move out. The other party has fewer people, so we will definitely be able to destroy them!”
The few ministers who descended to the mortal world stood up aggressively and said to the military minister.
Junchen Chanyu's face was gloomy. He knew that he couldn't delay any longer. He looked at Zhongxing Shuo beside him and said,
"Zhongxing Shuo, do you have any good ideas?”
Zhongxing Shuo shook his head and then said seriously to Junchen Chanyu,
"Chief Chanyu, the generals of this Han army are very bold and cunning. Their speed is too fast, and there must be Han people in the army who are very familiar with the terrain of the grasslands. Therefore, if we want to destroy them as soon as possible, we must immediately inform the leaders of the various tribes and order the generals of the various tribes to lead their troops to encircle and suppress them. Only then can we force them into a corner!”
"Apart from this, I think that you should also order the various tribes of the grasslands to strengthen their vigilance and be careful. At the same time, some small tribes should immediately migrate and temporarily move near the large tribes to prevent a sudden attack by the Han army to ensure their safety!”
The military minister nodded. This was the only way now. Otherwise, more tribes would be slaughtered by the damned Han army.
He didn't hesitate to send his men to the various tribes on the grassland to relay the order.
Since yesterday, the military minister Chanyu had been issuing orders to be on guard. He had issued three orders in a row, one more strict and one more urgent. He had even ordered the small tribes to immediately migrate to the surroundings of the large tribes.
In an instant, the entire grassland was shaken. The Xiongnu people of many tribes were flustered and afraid when they received these orders. The entire tribe did not dare to relax and waited for the order.
