Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 448 Fighting the barbarians won without a fight ([-])

Fusu laughed, and said: "Da Shanyu treats the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. The state of Chinese etiquette never does such villainous things. We are the Clothes Club, and the prince does not want to see the Xiongnu. Later generations seek revenge from us in China and do what Cao Mo did to Duke Huan, so please rest assured, we will never detain him.”

Detaining Maodun now can indeed save a lot of trouble, but if you think about it carefully, it can only be a short-term gain and plant the seeds of hatred.Mao Dun is different from the general minority leaders. He is not only a political leader, but also the spiritual leader of the Huns. It was under his leadership that he defeated the invincible Donghu in the eyes of the Huns. The spiritual sustenance of the Huns.If you detain Maodu now, it will be tantamount to making all the Huns hate China, and they will all be unwilling to avenge Maodu. In this way, it will be really difficult to stabilize the northern frontier.

Furthermore, the current Maodun and Daqin haven't scratched their heads yet, and they are still trying their best to maintain the friendly situation between the two countries. Detaining him now is unreasonable in terms of emotion, reason and righteousness, and will be blamed by future generations. Historical charges are something that any politician has to worry about.

The most realistic consideration is that as soon as the strategic layout of the Qin Dynasty is completed, the war with the Xiongnu will definitely end, and the Xiongnu will undoubtedly lose, so why rush at this moment.You must know that defeating Modu on the battlefield and capturing him now have completely different spiritual feelings towards the Huns.Defeating Maodun with real swords and guns on the battlefield will only make the Huns feel that Maodun is inferior to others. It is not the fault of the Great Qin, and his status in the hearts of the Huns will drop a lot. His status has soared, which will be very disadvantageous for controlling the Huns in the future.

The last question is that Zhou Chong, a modern person, is well aware of how serious the northern issue has troubled China. It can be said that as long as China exists, the harassment of the northern minorities has continued.It is precisely because the northern minorities harassed the northern frontier that troubled successive dynasties. In order to deal with the remnants of Mongolia in the north, the Ming Dynasty had to abandon the powerful fleet of Zheng He's seven voyages to the West, which made future generations sad.

In order to stabilize the north, the dynasties of all dynasties have adopted a two-pronged strategy of combining power and virtue. Now, seizing Maodun can only lose the hearts of the northern minorities, and it will discourage those who intend to defect to the Great Qin.

Based on these considerations, when discussing whether or not to take the opportunity to seize Maodu, Zhou Chong opposed it.This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to seize Maodun. After repeated weighing, everyone unanimously decided that it is better not to do anything. Although there will be a certain price to pay in the future, the most important thing is to get a stable northern border.

Xu Luo and the others didn't believe that Fusu's words were true at all, and were still looking at Zhou Chong and the others, wondering how to hijack Zhou Chong or Fusu and use them as amulets to escape.

Mao Dun believed that what Fu Su said was true, because he also thought that the time for Qin Chao to catch him was not ripe enough, and said with a smile: "The state of etiquette is the state of etiquette!"

Meng Tian sneered and said: "I, Meng Tian, ​​am not going to be a villain. I want to fight Da Shanyu on the battlefield with my real skills."

Mao Dun's eyes lit up, and he moved with joy, and said: "General Meng is proficient in the art of warfare, and he uses soldiers like a god. If you are the opponent, let him fight a good battle, no matter whether he wins or loses, it will be a joy in his life. But, There will be no chance like this, the Great Huns and Great Qin are friendly, so how can they fight wars?"

The first half of the sentence is the truth, and the second half is the face of the situation.

Meng Tian thanked politely and said, "No, Da Chanyu, the opportunity has come."

Mao Dun raised his eyebrows, he was really surprised, what he fears most now is going to war with Qin, can he not be surprised when he hears this?Pretending not to know the reason, he asked, "Why did General Meng make such a statement?"

Meng Tian's expression remained unchanged, and he said: "Da Shanyu doesn't know anything, the crown prince has dispatched troops and generals to set up a battle, if Da Shanyu doesn't agree to restore Donghu, we have no choice but to start fighting."

"Ah!" Xu Luo and the others also didn't expect Qin Guoguo to do this, and they were all surprised.

Mao Dun held back his shock, and said with a smile: "The general is joking. I know a little bit about this battle. With the strength of our Huns, it is not enough to fight a big battle with Daqin. If it is in the land of Donghu, we can fight here." In this battle, Ben Shanyu is still a little confident and will not be at a disadvantage." From what he thought, he led the soldiers of the whole country into the land of Donghu, no matter how fast the Qin army moved, it would not be able to go anywhere fast, and it was impossible to mobilize many soldiers. The army has a great chance of winning if it really fights.

Fusu nodded to Chen Ping. Chen Ping unfolded a military map and saw many arrows drawn on it.Pointing to the map, Chen Ping said: "Please look, Da Shanyu. This road is General Wang Ben. He has led [-] cavalry to drive behind you. The prince's intention is obvious, that is, to cut off your reinforcements and put you in the middle of the road." Donghu's army is divided into two, so that we can defeat them one by one.

"Here is our elite team, which is due west of you. This one is due east of you, and the Chinese army led by the prince is in front of you. You are already in an ambush on all sides. It can be said that you are in a desperate situation. Once you start fighting, You have nowhere to go."

Mao Dun is a master of military affairs, and he can tell at a glance that this is definitely not a joke, and it is not used to blackmail him. His heart is pounding, and it is about to pop out of his chest, and he said in surprise: "This, this, this..."

Zhou Chong said with a smile: "You are thinking that so many of our troops are mobilizing, why didn't you notice it? In fact, the reason is very simple. One is that your army is busy chasing the remnants of Donghu and sharing the fruits of victory, so there is no defense at all. Us. Second, you never thought we would do this, let alone your generals. We did all your scout posts, and you thought it was done by Donghu people, so this deployment must be completed Actually not difficult.

"We know this fait accompli, it is very difficult for Da Shanyu to give up, so we have to prepare for the worst. To get Da Shanyu to agree, we can only rely on our strength."

This statement is half true and half false. It is not so easy to complete the military deployment that Chen Ping said.It is true that Wang Ben led [-] cavalry to Maodun's retreat. Where are the other troops in place?

Mao Dun knew that it would be impossible not to agree to Qin Chao's conditions, but it was really hard to agree to it, and it was difficult to decide at the moment.

Fusu reminded: "Did the Shanyu realize that besides General Wang Ben, we also have General Li Mu. What I can tell the Shanyu is that General Li Mu has gone to Hetao now. His purpose of going is Even if I don’t say it, you understand it too. Since we want to fight, we must fight big, Daqin will never just fight Dachanyu in the land of Donghu.”

If Li Mu went to the land of Hetao, he would be ready to attack the royal court of Shanyu. This was what Mao Dun feared the most. His face changed again and again, and he suddenly thought that this was indeed a good way to wipe out the Xiongnu. Su, why did they tell themselves?As soon as he thought about it, he immediately understood Fusu's intentions, and said with a smile: "What conditions does Daqin have, please tell me, Prince."
