Chapter 698

Once this news spread, there was the scene of Touman's fury just now.

Touman originally wanted to merge that tribe without spending a single soldier.

In this way, the prestige of the Xiongnu tribal alliance would be stronger.

Some who really didn't listen to persuasion were directly suppressed and subdued forcefully, just courtesy before force.

Another main reason is that their Xiongnu are weak, so they have to be like this.

In the south, there is the powerful Great Qin Empire, but it is far away, so there is no need to worry much about the Qin people.

Occasionally, they can go to harass and plunder some Qin people back.

But the nearby forces make them restless.

Because it is too close.

In the east, there is Donghu; in the west, there is the Great Yuezhi.

Both are stronger than their Xiongnu.

These two major forces are not comparable to the Xiongnu.

The Xiongnu happened to be caught in the middle and were the weakest side.

Only by uniting all the Xiongnu can they survive.

Unless it is a last resort, they must never go to war with their own people.

This time, seeing that the tribe was about to submit to his Xiongnu tribal alliance.

But such a thing happened at this critical moment.

Isn't this breaking his arm?

Isn't this weakening the strength of his Xiongnu tribal alliance?

After Touman vented for a while.

Began to calm down.

But the face was gloomy and scary.

Don't know what he is thinking.

"Chanyu, why don't we gather a great army to attack Great Qin?"

"Attack Great Qin? What are you kidding? Is your brain flooded?"

"There are three hundred thousand great armies guarding the Wanlichangcheng, what do we use to fight them?"

"Not to mention anything else, as long as we dare to appear, it is estimated that even escaping will be a problem!"

"We often harass Great Qin and plunder Great Qin, they just can't find our base camp, otherwise we would have been wiped out long ago."

"We just occupy the geographical advantage, and have a strong cavalry advantage, so they can't catch up with us."

"You still dare to say to attack Great Qin, have you been bought by Great Qin to be a spy?"

"You all misunderstood, the attack I said is not a real fight."

"It's just using highly mobile cavalry to play a raid, hitting them by surprise."

"Not for anything else, just to rescue that batch of people, retreat immediately after saving them."

A group of tribal generals offered advice one after another.

Wanting to rescue the people.

But Touman did not agree.

This method is too risky.

"To rescue those less than one hundred thousand people, gathering a great army to raid, the risk is too great."

"If something goes wrong, it's not worth the loss."

Touman shook his head; he really wanted to save them back.

But he would not bet on the safety of the tribal alliance.

The Xiongnu generals saw that the Chanyu said so, and it was not unreasonable.

All stopped talking.

They also know the power of the Qin people.

In the past, they could plunder Great Qin because of the advantage of cavalry.

It doesn't mean they are stronger than the Qin people.

The strong one is just the cavalry.

It is difficult for the Qin people to pursue, let alone find them.

They are nomadic tribes and can change locations frequently.

It is very difficult to find them.

The scene suddenly became quiet.

"Father, now that things have come to this, we can only go and see if we can save the people back."

"But the risk is very high at this time, and we can only raid to create chaos."

"If we don't save them, we don't have so many things to redeem them back."

A one-armed man spoke to comfort.

This person is Modu, who had an arm cut off by Ying Ying Zi Ye.

Now it seems that he has recovered.

Touman looked at this youngest son and showed a trace of relief.

There are indeed no extra horses in their tribal alliance to redeem people back.

But if they don't save them, they feel a bit sorry.

Modu also sees it more thoroughly; he is worthy of being his son.

"Redemption is impossible; the Qin people just want horses."

"We can't have so many horses sent over."

"You are right, unless it is a raid, creating chaos, perhaps there is a chance to save them back."

"If they can be saved back, they will definitely be willing to join our tribal alliance."

Touman has fantasies and does not want to give up the people of that tribe.

"Father, give me one hundred thousand cavalry, I, Modu, am willing to take a risk and save everyone back!"

Modu saluted with one hand; if he could do this and solve the problem for his father.

He could bring in a powerful help, and then his status in the tribal alliance would be even greater.

Touman began to ponder.

He didn't want to give up that batch of people, and now that Modu said so, it's not impossible to operate.

"One hundred thousand is too many, really can't take out so many troops."

"The tribal alliance also needs protection, at most can only give you fifty thousand cavalry."

"Cavalry has strong mobility, if operated properly, it is not without a chance."

Touman dared not give so many cavalry.

There are the Great Yuezhi and Donghu who are eyeing them nearby.

"Fifty thousand is fifty thousand, I, Modu, will fight!"

After weighing the pros and cons, Modu's tone was firm.

This time it is mainly to raid and create chaos, not without a chance.

Not to confront three hundred thousand Great Qin soldiers.

Play raids, create chaos, and retreat before the Qin people react.

If this matter can be successful, saving a batch of Xiongnu, the pros outweigh the cons, and it is worth a fight.

Even if the people cannot be saved back, he will not let people catch him.

Having had one experience, it is impossible to fall in the same place twice.

"Good!"

"Worthy of being my son."

"Has my style back then."

"Hope you can return triumphantly!"

Touman laughed, and could only try this way.

If it really succeeds, the strength of the Xiongnu tribal alliance will go to the next level. ===== CHAPTER 700 =====
