Chapter 916: The cost is too high, refusing to redeem the hostages

~3 min read 425 words

But Ha Da still hadn't forgotten the purpose of this trip.

"Prince Modu, can we use one hundred thousand horses to exchange for the Chanyu?"

Ha Da also knew that one hundred thousand horses was not a small number.

But the current plan was to redeem the Chanyu first and then make further arrangements.

One hundred thousand horses was something the Great Xiongnu tribal alliance could still afford.

Ha Da looked at Modu with hope.

Now that Modu had apologized, he felt this matter was going to succeed.

Meanwhile, the generals looked at Modu with furrowed brows.

If Modu agreed, what would they do?

Give them or not?

If they didn't give them, they would tear off the mask of civility.

If they did give them, their subordinates would have to walk back, and such a crisis would be even greater.

Deep down, they didn't want to give up those one hundred thousand horses.

After all, they were being taken from their own hands; if it weren't for that, they wouldn't care about this matter.

If those one hundred thousand horses weren't being deducted from their own hands, they would have agreed without hesitation.

At this moment.

The generals looked at Modu nervously.

They didn't know what decision he would make.

This decision of his would affect many people and many things.

"Crown Prince, give us an answer."

"The Chanyu is still waiting for us to rescue him."

Seeing Modu not speaking, Ha Da thought he found it difficult to speak.

Therefore, he urged him again, wanting him to make a decision as soon as possible.

Who knew how the Qin would treat Touman Chanyu?

It was best to implement this matter as soon as possible to avoid accidents.

"General Ha Da, I cannot agree to this matter."

Modu shook his head slowly; he truly couldn't agree to this.

Once these words were spoken, the generals felt their bodies lighten inexplicably.

They all slowly let out a sigh of relief, their worries put aside.

It seemed the Crown Prince was also unwilling.

This was exactly what they wanted; they didn't want to give up those horses either.

"Why?"

"Does the Prince not want to save the Chanyu anymore?"

"That is your father!"

Ha Da's face turned livid, and he scolded loudly.

He never expected Modu to disagree.

No matter how excessive Touman had been before, he was, after all, his father.

Was he going to stand by and watch him die?

Even if Touman had done some things wrong before, he was still Modu's father.
