It seemed they wanted to see some clues from his face.

But Hada's face had no other expression except for that extremely angry look.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Seeing Hada not speaking, Prince Modu sneered repeatedly.

He felt that Hada was hiding something, and he felt uncomfortable if he didn't get the words out.

Hada stopped speaking.

His expression was gloomy and uncertain.

"Someone, take Hada down and treat him as a traitor."

Prince Modu saw Hada not speaking and directly issued an instruction.

Soldiers heard this and were about to walk forward.

At this moment, everyone present began to suspect Hada's motives were impure.

Therefore, they were willing to accept this instruction.

"Wait a minute!"

Hada stretched out his hand and blocked the soldiers' advance.

The soldiers also stopped obediently and just looked at Hada.

Hada scanned everyone, staying on each general's face for a while.

"Aren't you very curious?"

"Then I can tell you."

Hada finally compromised.

Originally, he didn't intend to say it.

After all, this news was a bit shocking.

Saying it would only scare many people.

According to his plan with the Chanyu and others, give one hundred thousand horses to ransom people, and then immediately withdraw from here.

He didn't believe that these Xiongnu cavalry could beat the Qin Ruishi.

The Qin Ruishi of today were different from the past.

They had horses and many new types of weapons.

The combat power of the Qin cavalry was by no means inferior to the Xiongnu cavalry.

Their proud Xiongnu cavalry was not worth mentioning now.

The best way now was to use horses to trade for people.

But now everyone was misunderstanding him, forcing him to tell the truth.

Everyone, including Prince Modu, quieted down.

Now that it had come to this, there was no rush.

They wanted to see what else Hada had to say.

"Aren't you curious where my guards went?"

"Aren't you curious why I wanted to take one hundred thousand horses to trade for people?"

"I can tell you all, I hope you don't get scared."

Hada looked at everyone, a trace of loneliness flashing on his face.

Making everyone feel a bit confused.

Hada's actions were too abnormal, making them not know what to do for a moment.

"Speak quickly, don't be slow."

"I want to see what you can say."

"You've wasted a lot of our time."

"If you have anything to say, say it quickly."

"We still have to save people later."

Prince Modu looked at Hada with disdain; he felt Hada was just wasting their time.

"Our people were ambushed, including me, and we were all captured."

"The reason I was able to come back was the result of Chanyu Touman's negotiation with the Qin people."

"Finally, the Chanyu asked me to come back and ask you for one hundred thousand horses to ransom people."

As soon as Hada said this, a group of people was stunned.

The Chanyu asked Hada to come back and ask for one hundred thousand horses?

They were ambushed and all captured?

Whether it was the Chanyu who asked Hada to come back, they didn't know.

But it might be true that they were ambushed.

Being ambushed was also justifiable.

Otherwise, how could only Hada come back alone?

But the number of Qin cavalry was so small, how could they ambush tens of thousands of them?

Some people didn't believe it, feeling confused.

"The Qin cavalry only had about twenty thousand people, how did they ambush you?"

A general didn't believe Hada's words.

This reason was a bit far-fetched, but it explained the result of Hada coming back alone.

"Your news is behind."

"Your news sources were all passed back by us."

"The Qin cavalry before was indeed about twenty thousand."

"Later their reinforcements arrived, otherwise they couldn't have ambushed us."

Hada smiled bitterly; thinking of the Qin reinforcements, he felt his heart tremble.

Too many Qin Ruishi had come.

He really couldn't summon the courage to resist.

Qin reinforcements arrived?

As soon as these words were spoken, Prince Modu and the others suddenly realized.

It seemed that this reason was justifiable.

Otherwise, twenty thousand cavalry couldn't possibly ambush Hada's tens of thousands of cavalry; this was not realistic.

Even if the Qin cavalry were powerful, it was impossible for only Hada to escape alone.

"The Qin reinforcements arrived, and you were ambushed; that's understandable."

"But now our reinforcements have also arrived, can the one hundred thousand horse ransom be voided?"

"That's right, even if the Qin reinforcements arrived, they couldn't possibly have as many people as we do."

"Don't forget, this is our territory; are we afraid of Qin reinforcements?"

"Now we have more than two hundred thousand people, and there are infantry coming behind."

"It is estimated that it won't be long before we have more people."

"There is no need to fear the Qin soldiers at all."

The generals knew that many infantry were coming behind them.

Therefore, they were not afraid even if the Qin reinforcements arrived.

Hada saw that this group of people was high-spirited, and it was really not easy to dampen their spirits.

If they knew how many troops the Qin people had, would it scare them?

"How many people do the Qin reinforcements have?"

Prince Modu saw that Hada's expression was a bit wrong, and asked this key question.

At this moment, the generals all looked at Hada curiously.

They were also very curious about how many Qin reinforcements there were.

Could they have more than their Xiongnu reinforcements?

This was not realistic at all.

After all, this was the great grassland.
