By November, the entire Mubei had become a world of ice and snow.

Under Tianyan Mountain (now Hangai Mountain), the snow was three feet deep, and no one could walk.

but……

In this cold and cold season when the north wind is howling, dozens of men in brown clothes drive away dozens of dogs on the vast earth, riding on a primitive wooden means of transportation, facing the wind and snow, all the way forward.

"Outuo!" Finally, the person who opened the way in front shouted loudly: "Zhao Xincheng has arrived!"

"Stop!" In the crowd, a noble man wearing a wolf fur coat and a thick felt hat raised his hand, and the dog he was holding immediately stopped running limbs very obediently, gathered together, and made a whisper to the owners.

Someone took out a lot of dried food from the leather bag on his back and threw it to the dogs.

The hungry dogs immediately started to eat.

The noble man walked down the means of transportation, climbed up a small mound covered with snow nearby, and looked into the distance.

In the distance of sight, a city built with rammed earth plate stood tall at the south of the foothills, tightly guarding the traffic leading to the distant mountain gorge.

"Zhao Xincheng!" the noble man murmured softly and said with emotion: "I'm back!"

After cruising in the grassland between Junji Mountain and Juyan Sea, ten years later.

The descendants of the Huns, the second king, finally returned to this city built by their ancestors with their blood and wisdom.

The first city of the Hun Empire and Zhao Xincheng, the pearl of the Huns' Chanyu.

Staring at the city gate, the nobleman bent his knees gently, kowtowed to the city gate, and silently recited in his heart: "The foundation of our ancestors has unfortunately fallen into the hands of others... Sooner or later, I will take it back!"

But now, he dare not have any thoughts about him.

Because, now the owner of this city is King Yuxi of the Huns and the younger brother of Shanyu!

This is nothing more!

People from the Twin Clan never know how to manage cities. Qin cities in various places were handed over to the surrendered ministers of the Han Dynasty. The so-called Twin Clan lord was just a name.

but……

The one who assists King Yu and is in charge of Zhao Xincheng is the right school king... Li Ling!

Just thinking about that man, the nobleman felt trembling all over and his scalp numb.

That was a demon-like man.

Poetry, books, rituals and music are all-round.

Han Feizi, Shang Jun’s books, Guan Zi, Corpse and even Huainan Zi all recited them backwards.

More importantly, being familiar with bows and horses is the most famous warrior and the most powerful The Legend of the Condor Heroes in the Huns, who are also eclipsed in front of the right school king.

Every Hun nobleman knew that the second place (princess) of the Twin clan was extremely rebellious and domineering, and was no less than the princesses of the Chang'an Liu family in the Han Dynasty in the south.

Jiankun, the sister of Shanyu and Duke, was the best among the many.

Even when Shanyu was there, there was nothing he could do and could only let him go.

However……

Since marrying that man, this man has become more virtuous and gentle, and even began to learn about female red embroidery in the dome, sewing a wide robe for the right school king of the Han Dynasty.

Thinking of these things, his expression gradually calmed down. He lowered his body and tightened his collar. He waved his hand and ordered: "Warriors, follow me into the city!"

………………………………

Zhao Xincheng is a very simple city.

At least that seems to be true for Li Ling.

A simple rammed earth city wall is built using the method of printing, and it rises up layer by layer, only three feet high.

The arrow towers and watch towers are almost all made of wooden items around the city wall. At most, some earth and stones are stuffed into the wood. It may be possible to defend against the rocks, but if you face a siege force with a tunnel battalion.

These arrow towers and lookout towers cannot hold on for even an hour.

The only good news is that since Huo Qubing, no one has ever threatened this city block located on the southern foot of Tianyan Mountain, let alone captured this city, and reenacted the legend of Fenglangjuxu Mountain back then.

"Young Master!"

"Young Master!"

While feeling moved, Li Ling heard the voice of his old servant from afar.

"What's the matter with Mr. Shao?" Li Ling turned around and asked softly.

Although he had surrendered to the Huns for six years, Li Ling was still accustomed to speaking in the dialect of his hometown in Longyou. Although the Huns wanted to change, they gave up after trying it a few times.

"Zhao Qian is back!" The old servant walked up and replied respectfully.

"Which Zhao Qian?" Li Ling asked softly.

"Zhao Xin's eldest grandson!"

"Oh..." Li Ling murmured softly, saying, "Didn't he go to Outu? Why did he come back?"

"A letter from Chang'an was handed over to Zhao Qian!" The old servant came forward, looked at the expression of his little master, and lowered his head: "Young master, don't see me?"

"Chang'an?" Li Ling was slightly stunned and walked forward, repeating as if he couldn't believe his ears: "Chang'an?!"

After a long time, he smiled bitterly and said, "Chang'an, who still remembers Li Shaoqing!"

"Even if someone remembers it, it should be the traitor Li Ling..."

Li Ling has always been very confused about his identity.

He is a Han official!

He was deeply influenced by his grandfather Li Guang since childhood, and he was determined to make achievements, glorify his ancestors, and clear away the shame of his ancestors and his fathers.

However, fortune makes people feel unpredictable.

Now, he has been sent to the left and whip.

He even married the Xiongnu and became a powerful minister of the Xiongnu.

Chang'an...

I have only seen it in my dreams.

"I heard it was Ren Lizheng's letter..." the old servant whispered.

"Ren Lizheng?" Li Ling was stunned for a moment, a little lost, but soon reacted: "Young Master Ren wrote me? I'm afraid it was instructed by Huo Zimeng!"

At the beginning, Ren Lizheng, he, Huo Guang, Jin Riye, and Zhang Anshi, had traveled to Longxi together and had a great chat.

Unfortunately, that happened fifteen years ago.

Now, except for him and Ren Lizheng, the other three are already in power and extremely noble.

But except for Huo Guang, the other two people have not very close relationships with themselves.

Therefore, Li Ling could immediately determine who instructed Ren Lizheng to write a letter.

After thinking about it, Li Ling waved his hand and said, "Forget it, go and ask Zhao Qian to come and see me!"

"promise!"

…………………………………………

A moment later, a noble man wearing a wolf fur coat and covered in ice and snow marks was taken to Li Ling.

"Ou Tuo Zhao Qian, I'll say goodbye to Tu She!" The man thrust, then knelt in front of Li Ling, put his forehead on the ground, bowed his head again, and said, "May God bless you forever and make your path (the Huns call weapons a path) as sharp as before!"

Li Ling lowered his eyes and asked leisurely, "What's wrong with Zhao Outuo coming to find me?"

"Send a letter!" Zhao Qian lowered his head, not daring to breathe.

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree!

The right school king Li Ling, in the entire Huns, was a man like a demon.

The battle of Junji Mountain made the Huns deeply understand the strength and resourcefulness of this man.

Eighty thousand and five thousand, almost killed.

Many Hun nobles fought once suspected that they did not understand war and did not know how to use military force.

If it weren't for the exhaustion of ammunition and food, and the traitors betrayed.

This right school king may have grown into a nightmare for the Huns now.

It is precisely because of this that his status in the Huns was very special, almost the third person under the Shanyu and his mother, and below the two and above ten thousand people, he could determine his life and death with just one word.

Even when he had just surrendered, his status was unstable.

He could also use a knife to kill Li Xu, the surrendered general who caused his clan to be killed by the Han Dynasty.

But the entire Huns could only watch him take revenge.

Li Ling laughed, making Zhao Qian feel creepy and his scalp numb. He could only lower his head and press it tightly on the ground.

Zhao Qian knew very well that as long as Li Ling thought, he would definitely die without life.

"Where is your faith?" Li Ling suddenly asked.
