Chapter 953: The Qin people disappeared, Prince Modu unfolds his plan

The Xiongnu cavalry was boiling.

A smile appeared on everyone's face.

They had finally shaken off the pursuers.

These past few days had been too tormenting.

Now there was no longer a single figure of a Qin person behind them.

Their tense hearts could finally settle down.

It was estimated that they could safely return to the base camp.

"Your Highness, it seems the Qin people have given up."

"Otherwise, why haven't they caught up yet?"

"It's truly great; we've made it through."

"As expected, our Xiongnu cavalry has more endurance."

"Hahaha, the Qin people are nothing much."

"It's truly a relief not to be chased."

"We've been chased for so long; we must take revenge in the future!"

"Let's not talk about revenge for now; let's return to the base camp to rest first."

"We've been exhausted these past few days."

"Haven't you seen that many of our cavalrymen have changed the way they walk?"

The Xiongnu generals gathered around Prince Modu and discussed.

Let alone the soldiers, even they felt uncomfortable walking.

Some of their crotches had been rubbed raw.

Some were even rubbed until they bled.

It could be seen that sitting on a horse for a long time and rubbing against the saddle for a long time was not a good thing.

Prince Modu looked at the group of generals.

Seeing them so happy, they were a bit carried away.

"We cannot return to the tribal alliance for now."

Prince Modu thought for a long time; they couldn't return for now.

Both publicly and privately, they couldn't return so quickly.

The generals quieted down after hearing this.

"Can't return? Why?"

"Exactly, the Qin people aren't chasing anymore, why can't we return?"

The generals looked at Prince Modu with confusion.

Had they not wandered enough outside?

Now that there was no pursuit from the Qin people, it was the best time to return.

But why wouldn't Prince Modu let them return?

"Why did the Qin people stop pursuing?"

"Maybe they couldn't catch up to us, but it's also possible they want to find our base camp."

"As long as we return, they will follow behind, and then they will strike directly."

"Then there will be no need to run; it will be a direct war, and the winner will be king!"

"This point must be guarded against; can you be sure the Qin people won't do this?"

Prince Modu sneered repeatedly.

Once these words were spoken, the generals were unable to refute.

This was not impossible.

If they were so eager to return,

perhaps it would really be as Prince Modu said.

After all, the Qin people giving up the pursuit was a bit abrupt.

"If we don't return, what are we doing outside?"

"We can't stay outside forever, right?"

Some generals agreed with Prince Modu's statement.

But they couldn't stay outside forever, right?

Seeing the generals default to his thoughts,

Prince Modu revealed a smile.

These were all his guesses; as for whether they were true or false, who knew?

The reason they couldn't return was mainly due to two factors.

First, he was truly afraid the Qin people would do this.

At that time, it would be difficult to run.

The most important thing was the second point.

He wanted to be Touman Chanyu and wanted to launch a sweep.

Now was an opportunity to first subdue the remaining Xiongnu herdsmen on the grassland and strengthen his power.

Only by strengthening could they confront the Qin people.

As long as he strengthened the Xiongnu tribal alliance and became Touman Chanyu, there would be fewer voices of opposition.

Now was an opportunity, and he must hold this army firmly in his hands.

Who knew if there were many people resisting back at the base camp?

It would be better to conquer those who were by his side.

When they returned to the base camp, whoever dared not to submit could just be killed.

It was better than returning now.

After all, these generals now might not all submit to him.

As long as he subdued them, things would be much simpler in the future.

"It's time to strengthen our power."

"Sweep the surrounding small tribes and subdue them starting now!"

"Only when we are strong will we not be afraid of the Qin people."

"In the future, it will be us chasing them, not being chased and running."

Prince Modu looked at the generals, and a strange light shot from his eyes.

This was a look of desire for power.

The generals were stunned.

Prince Modu's ambition was a bit big.

Shouldn't they be thinking about how to avoid the Qin cavalry at this time?

Should they be thinking about safety instead of expanding their power?

"Your Highness, is it really good to sweep the surrounding small tribes at this time?"

"The Qin people are still watching from behind; who knows when they will rush over?"

"What if the Qin people attack while we are subduing the surrounding small tribes?"

Some generals were worried and didn't agree with Prince Modu's idea.

At this critical moment, it was better to have fewer actions.

"You don't understand; the conquest must begin immediately!"

"We can only use gentle means to absorb small tribes first."

"This is also the fastest way to save time and effort." ===== CHAPTER 955 =====
