Chapter 915

Ha Da urged them, hoping this group would agree to the plan.

Upon hearing this, the generals' expressions were not pleasant.

They quieted down as well.

They weren't stupid; would they really be safe after handing over one hundred thousand horses to redeem the Chanyu?

After they handed over the horses, would they have to walk back on their own two legs?

By that time, would the three hundred thousand Qin troops not pursue them?

Just thinking about it made it seem impossible.

By then, perhaps even more people would die.

If they were the Qin, they would absolutely not give up such a good opportunity.

At this moment, the generals.

One after another, turned their gazes toward Prince Modu.

They didn't know how to choose.

They wanted to leave the decision-making power to Prince Modu.

With the Chanyu absent, logically, the Crown Prince was the highest authority.

Although Modu had not been favored by the Chanyu before.

Ever since Prince Maoshi was captured.

Modu, as the Crown Prince, had established a certain prestige in the army.

Many people favored Modu, so they all looked to him.

Modu's face was gloomy and shifting.

Looking at the panicked generals, he wasn't doing much better himself.

This news was too shocking.

It gave him the urge to flee this place immediately.

If he had known the Qin had so many soldiers here, he wouldn't have wanted to bring people here.

Now, caught in a dilemma, he was somewhat at a loss.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, what should be done?

He truly didn't want to give those one hundred thousand horses.

What would he do if he redeemed Touman?

If Touman didn't return, he would be the new Chanyu.

If Touman returned, he would need to use so many horses to redeem him.

Losing so many horses all at once.

He didn't want to do something that would damage his own foundation.

Moreover, redeeming Touman brought him no benefits at all.

What he needed to do now was convince those generals not to give the horses.

Otherwise, with the cavalry lacking so many horses, the days ahead would be difficult.

"Ahem."

Modu cleared his throat.

"General Ha Da, I misunderstood you before."

"I apologize to you now; I am sorry."

"You did not betray the Great Xiongnu; you had good intentions."

Modu apologized to Ha Da in a proper manner, his face full of repentance.

Ha Da was somewhat bewildered, not knowing what Modu was playing at.

But for His Highness to apologize to him, he dared not act presumptuously.

"Prince, you don't need to apologize to me."

"I was also in the wrong just now."

"I was just anxious to save the Chanyu and caused offense."

"I hope the Prince will not take it to heart."

Ha Da also admitted he had acted wrongly just now, hoping Modu would not take offense.

Now that Modu apologized, he felt somewhat flattered.

It felt somewhat unreal.
