Chapter 1454

~7 min read 1,236 words

At the end of April, the spring of the Mobei grassland finally arrived late, and the early green, like a shy girl, carefully poked its head out of the black soil.

These tender green grass buds seemed to be a precious gift from nature to this vast grassland, bringing a touch of vitality to the originally withered yellow earth.

In the Xiongnu camp, after a long winter, those warhorses could no longer suppress their longing for green grass.

They wandered freely in the camp, their hooves stepping on the black soil, their noses sniffing the fragrance of green grass in the air, excitedly looking for the tender green that had just emerged.

Compared to the orderly camps left by the Great Han army during their march, the two thousand-strong army led by Yufuluo at this time was like grazing. The camp had no rules to speak of, tents were set up at will, and personnel and horses were scattered in various places, completely without discipline and order.

A few miles away, on the other side of the Sunihe, was the Xianbei army of tens of thousands, camping just like the Southern Xiongnu.

In the very center of the entire camp stood a huge dome tent with a diameter of over ten meters, which was as eye-catching as a small mountain. Its existence seemed to be the core of this camp, exuding a majestic and solemn atmosphere.

Around the dome tent was an open space, the ground was flat and hard, obviously carefully repaired. And beside the dome tent, a large pole as thick as an adult's thigh and several meters high was particularly eye-catching.

At the top of the pole, a black wolf flag fluttered in the wind, and the black wolf head on the flag was vivid, as if it could jump out of the flag at any time.

The existence of the wolf flag not only added a sense of mystery and majesty to this camp, but also made people feel a sense of wildness and power.

Inside the dome tent, the ground was covered with a layer of soft and thick sheepskin, as if it were a white cloud.

In the center of the sheepskin, an exquisite low table was placed, and various delicacies and fine wines were placed on the table.

And in front of the low table, Yufuluo, in a gorgeous robe, opened his chest.

Two beauties with wheat-colored skin were kneeling on the ground, their bodies leaning forward slightly, their hands supporting the ground, their postures charming and pleasing.

They wore short skirts made of wolf skin, the length of which reached the middle of their thighs, revealing their slender legs and thin waists.

Yufuluo sat comfortably in front of the low table, tasting delicacies while admiring the graceful figures of the two beauties in front of him. His eyes wandered over them from time to time, and a faint smile hung on the corners of his mouth.

Yufuluo, sitting behind the table, was using a small knife to cut off a piece of freshly boiled mutton, and then teasingly waved a dagger inlaid with gems in front of the two Xiongnu beauties.

The two Xiongnu beauties lying on the ground immediately got up and knelt in front of Yufuluo, swaying their slender waists like pets begging for pity.

"Haha."

Yufuluo laughed and threw the cut mutton to the two women.

Then he enjoyed watching the two women scramble for food.

"Right Worthy Prince."

A voice came from outside the dome tent.

Yufuluo looked up.

A royal tent elite guard walked in with his head lowered.

"Xianbei Chanyu Budugen sent an envoy saying he wants to meet the Right Worthy Prince."

Envoy?

What does Budugen want to do by sending an envoy at this time?

The two armies have met since the Sunihe, and five days have passed.

The Xianbei army has had no movement, and he is happy to be idle.

Anyway, his task is to contain the Xianbei army, whether to fight or not is the same; as long as the Xianbei army remains still, he can also remain still.

On the contrary, if they fight, it will consume the power of his tribe, so it is better to confront each other steadily like this.

Another thing is, for him to fight to the death for Duan Yu, such a thing is not even worth thinking about.

Thinking of this, Yufuluo inserted the dagger in his hand onto the table in front of him.

"Bring the person in."

A moment later, Guo Tu, wearing a black scholar's robe, was brought to Yufuluo by the guards.

When he saw Guo Tu standing in front of him, Yufuluo was obviously stunned.

"Han person?" Yufuluo looked Guo Tu up and down.

Guo Tu smiled slightly and saluted Yufuluo: "Reporting to the Right Worthy Prince, I am indeed a Han person; my name is Guo Tu, I have met the Right Worthy Prince."

Hearing Guo Tu admit that he was a Han person, Yufuluo looked at Guo Tu more carefully.

Then he smiled and said: "Is Budugen's head broken, actually sending a Han person to act as an envoy?"

"It seems that Duan Yu burning Tanhanshan with a great fire did not let the Xianbei learn much of a lesson; Budugen actually used a Han person, haha, ridiculous!"

Facing Yufuluo's laughter, Guo Tu did not open his mouth to argue anything.

Instead, he waited for Yufuluo to finish laughing, and only replied after he spoke again.

"Han person, now you can tell me your intention; what did Budugen send you to do?" Yufuluo said, while stroking the long hair of the Xianbei beauty lying beside him, mocking: "Could it be that Budugen has already become a running dog of the Han people?"

Guo Tu had a humble smile on his face and returned a salute: "Respected Right Worthy Prince, perhaps you have some misunderstanding."

"It is not that Duan Yu's great fire did not let Chanyu Budugen remember this name; in fact, it is precisely because of Duan Yu's great fire that I appear here."

Guo Tu's convoluted explanation made Yufuluo frown.

"What does this mean?"

Guo Tu continued to explain: "The respected Right Worthy Prince appearing here, isn't it because Duan Yu is now rebelling and is going against the Great Han?"

"The relationship between the Great Han and the Xianbei now happens to be because we both have the same enemy."

"Duan Yu and the Xianbei have a deadly feud, and betraying the Great Han to rebel is intolerable to heaven and earth; and I, I ask the respected Right Worthy Prince to allow me to introduce myself."

"I am from Yingchuan, now under the Jizhou Shepherd, and I am an envoy sent by the Great Han to unite with the Xianbei."

"It is to promote the joint crusade against Duan Yu by the Great Han and the Xianbei."

"As for my intention today..."

Speaking of this, Guo Tu paused, looked at Yufuluo sitting behind the table, and said: "My intention today is to want to represent the Great Han and represent the Xianbei to persuade the Right Worthy Prince to join us together to crusade against Duan Yu."

Hmm?

Yufuluo's eyebrows instantly locked.

"You really have great courage," Yufuluo said, squinting his eyes: "Don't you know why I appear here?"

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you now?"
