Section 1181: Li Ling's Plan(1/2)

What can the Huns do when facing the conditions of the Han army?

After all, I can only agree!

No way not to agree!

Because, after the Han cavalry seized the prisoners, they quickly re-engaged their battle formation.

This time, six thousand Han cavalry lined up on the banks of the Red River, posing as if you don’t agree today, don’t want to leave here easily.

The posture of the Han cavalry immediately caused an uproar in the Huns' army.

Especially the servants of the Western Regions, the vassals immediately showed unstableness.

This made Li Ling and the senior executives of the Xiongnu dare not gamble at all!

Because, if the Han army attacks, there will be mutiny among the servants in the Western Regions.

Then these 100,000 troops will probably be destroyed here.

Even if this is not the case, judging by the mobility, riding and shooting ability and melee ability shown by the Han cavalry.

They can already take the initiative in the battlefield.

If you want to fight, you can go.

Under such circumstances, Li Ling and the senior leaders of the Xiongnu in the Western Regions finally had to lower their heads and fully accept the three opinions put forward by Zhang Yue.

Of course, Li Ling didn't grow up by eating dry food.

After accepting the conditions of the Han army, the envoy sent by Li Ling made a request to Zhang Yue: Please go to Chang'an!

He was willing to send an envoy to Chang'an to pay homage to the emperor in the name of Dulongqi Shanyu.

When Zhang Yue heard about it, he hesitated for a long time.

I have to say that Li Ling’s move is really clever!

It can even be said that it is the optimal solution he can make under the current situation.

Now, the Xiongnu in the Western Regions are defeated and face compensation, cede land and apologize.

Dignity is wiped out, prestige is lost, and morale of the army is severely defeated!

It can be imagined that if he did nothing and waited for his return to his nest, the countries in the Western Regions would become obedient and disobedient.

By then, he would have only one choice to suppress it strongly!

But the countries in the Western Regions are not stupid and cannot beat the Huns. They can hold the Han Dynasty's father's thigh!

What should Li Ling do then?

If a strong attack is to risk the Han army's rescue. If you don't fight, your rule will fall apart.

So, I made up my mind and just knelt to the end!

As long as the Han Dynasty accepted Du Longqi's tribute, even though the Xiongnu in the Western Regions became a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, the status of the two instantly became a master-slave relationship.

But it also stabilized the rule of the Western Regions.

All countries in the Western Regions still have to be the foot washers of the Huns.

If they were smarter, licked their relationship well in Chang'an, and cleared their relationship, they might be able to get a title for the Emperor Dulongqi Shanyu.

Then he can use the power of the fox to pretend to be the power of the Han emperor and enslave the Western Regions.

Who dares to resist? Who has the courage to say no?

Moreover, Li Ling's choice was not actually worthy of his appearance, but he actually suffered no other losses.

"Is this going to learn from King Goujian of Yue?" Zhang Yue laughed.

Goujian was defeated by Wu back then, and he did it even more thoroughly.

So, after all, I will slept on firewood and tasted gall, and revenge!

Amid the trembling expression of the Hun envoy, Zhang Yue smiled and said, "If your lord has this heart, our country will welcome you happily!"

This is to agree to Li Ling’s request.

The messenger immediately bowed happily: "The general's mind is beyond the reach of anyone in the world!"

"The messenger please bring me a word to Brother Shaoqing..." Zhang Yue suddenly said seriously: "Fallen leaves will eventually return to their roots. The fox dies in the head hill, the horses rely on the wind, and the birds fly back to their hometown. Even beasts are like this, let alone people?!"

After hearing this, the messenger's expression changed for a moment, and then he bowed his head heavily.

………………………………………

"Daima Yifeng..." Li Ling sighed after hearing the envoy's narration: "Why don't I want to do this?"

Not to mention him, even if he is trapped in Mount Yuwu, Wei Lu, who is now trapped in Mount Yuwu, isn't he not attached to the mountains and waters of Nanling's hometown, hoping to be buried on the banks of the Changshui River where he was born after his death!

But the question is, do they have this opportunity?

As the number one thief and the number two thief.

Even if they think, they may be chopped into meat paste after returning to the Great Wall.

unless……

They had enough chips to bargain with the Han Dynasty.

But now it seems...

Even if he and Wei Lu finally achieved their ambitions and replaced them with the Twins, it was far from enough.

While hesitating, a nobleman suddenly stumbled in and reported ecstaticly: "Regent! Regent! Just now, he received the news that King Ding Ling has led his troops to return from Yuwushui and can return to the Western Regions within one or two months!"

Li Ling lost his mind for a moment when he heard this, then grabbed the man and asked anxiously: "Is this true?!"

"Really! It's true! The fake Shanyu Anmi and Tuqi have sent envoys to report..."

Li Ling breathed a long sigh of relief and his face became rosy.

If Wei Lu led his troops to the source, even if his strength was greatly reduced, it would be of great significance to him and the force he managed!

This means that the available troops in his hands have greatly increased!

It also means that his rule in the Western Regions will become more stable!

Moreover, Wei Lu was a scam, and had better experience in dealing with Erwuzi in the Western Regions.

After thinking about it, Li Ling said, "Go back immediately to express your gratitude to Anmi and Tuqi in the name of Dulongqi Shanyu!"

"And I will also inform you that to thank you, I will withdraw my tribes from the Secretto Bibihai and Hungary Rivers by the latest by next summer, and will no longer lead my troops northwards!"

This is to repay the favor and announce that we will withdraw from the battle for the Mobei Shanyu from then on.

Even the private canals that have been operating for a long time are given up.

This was something that Li Ling had already made up his mind.

But for other Hun nobles, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Immediately, many people came to Li Ling and advised him to take back Cheng’s life!

Because, for the nobles of the Xiongnu in the Western Regions, their greatest wish and ambition now is to attack the northern Mobei in the future, eliminate the pseudo-Shanyu, and correct themselves!

Now, Li Ling announced that he would withdraw his troops from the private canal, Bihai and the Hungary River, and if they were to cut off their hopes and ambitions.

How can they accept this?

Even more incomprehensible!

If one day the battle for the Hanyu in Mobei ends, would they ask them to kneel down to welcome the winner?

Isn’t this equivalent to suicide?

You should know that since ancient times, the only failure of the Huns' internal strife has ended up dead!

Li Ling knew that this matter was very controversial, but he had made up his mind.

So, he explained to these people: "Mobei is just a useless person. Even if you get it, it will not benefit us at all in the current dilemma, and may even become a drag!"

"Are you willing to spend countless resources every year to invest in Mobei?!"

Everyone listened and immediately lowered their heads.

Since the age of the sages feared, the Western Regions of the Xiongnu were obedient to the Shanyu Ting.

This made the nobles of the Western Regions taste the sweetness.

It was also the reason why Hu Lugu's Western Expedition was the Xiongnu tribe in the Western Regions, and the exploited resources were occupied, and they were not all sent to the northern part of the Moyu Court for the nobles of the Shanyu Court to enjoy!

It's simply the opposite!

After Hu Lu Gu died and the Huns were completely divided, the nobles of the Xiongnu in the Western Regions were too lazy to maintain their final dignity.

The income from tribute and chasing fields in various countries is divided by each department.

Even if the Han Dynasty threatened, they would cede land and pay compensation, but their lives would be much better than in the past!

Now, the Regent is further evacuating the private channel and the sea.

This means that all the resources and troops that were originally going to be invested in that bottomless pit will come back.
To be continued...
