There is no doubt that Maodun is a strong person.

This can be known from his methods of dealing with the Huhan tribe.

The leaders of various tribes were basically obedient to Maodun. No matter how much resentment they had in their hearts, they would not dare to show any slightest.

The Great Shanyu military account.

"The Qin people agreed to meet, and the location was on the banks of Wuding River. The leaders of each tribe obeyed the orders and quickly selected the warriors of the tribe's tribe and followed the action of me."

At the end of October, the weather outside was colder day by day, but the leaders of each tribe felt that the temperature in the tent was several degrees lower than that outside, and the cold words were as cold as the north wind outside, making people feel chilly.

If the Great Huns want to be stronger, the original loose tribal alliance would definitely not work. They must follow the example of Qin and establish an army that unites orders and only acts according to orders.

This time, the Huhan tribe was borrowed and annexed, and the Great Shanyu was once again established the authority of the great Shanyu to speak out. Next, Maodun planned to gather the warriors from various tribes in the name of the Qin army meeting to weaken the power of various tribes. The leaders of various tribes who were caught off guard by Maodun's order stood there blankly, not daring to make any comments and not wanting to submit so willingly.

This is a power struggle.

At present, the two sides in the competition are not on the same level at all.

"Why don't you go and prepare quickly-." Seeing everyone speechless, even the servants beside Maodun said with a word, which made the leaders of the Hun tribe hate in their hearts.

But what they could say, who dared to say. In the helplessness, the leaders of each tribe could only tremble with fear. They lowered their heads and retreated without showing any disrespect.

No military meeting is needed.

No one needs to jump out and express his opinions.

Maodun sneered and watched one tribe leader after another go out, his heart couldn't help but feel a little confused. Life without an opponent is actually very depressing. Fortunately, there are interesting opponents like Li Yuan, otherwise Maodun really doesn't know what goals there will be in the next day.

The Huns were good at shooting.

But the real warriors who are good at shooting are distributed among the tribes, and they can be said that neither of them is convinced by each other. This dispersed situation of elite forces has made Maodun's desire to increase his combat power to a higher level, and this time, he was strongly stimulated by Li Yuan's Qin army, Maodun decided to forcibly launch a plan to merge the military forces of various units.

——.

Gaopingbei.

Yinzhou Post.

This place is located in the hinterland of the Loess Plateau, and Wuding River flows through it, washing away the loose river bank. Sometimes it may roll up balls of yellow mud. Although the vegetation is still lush, due to human grazing and the reduction of rainfall, the soil has gradually appeared in this place.

After communication between the envoys of both sides, Li Yuan and Maodun met on the morning of November 4th. The meeting with Maodun was accompanied by the fifty Xiongnu warriors who were good at shooting from each tribe. Li Yuan also selected fifty warriors to accompany him.

In this small detail, with Li Yuan and Maodun's pride, they will not take advantage of each other.

The space inside the station is small.

It was not suitable for more than a hundred people to crowd together, so Li Yuan suggested that some tents be set up in the open space in front of the station for both parties to rest. This proposal made Maodun very happy. He did not expect that Li Yuan, as an opponent, would have such a delicate thought of focusing on the other party.

In return, Maodun ordered his servants to light a fire and kill some cattle and sheep for barbecue. If this open-air grassland banquet was not in the Qin Dynasty, Li Yuan would have almost regarded it as a trip to the Inner Mongolia grassland.

Maodun is a taciturn person.

He is not tall, short and strong, with a strange proportion of upper and lower bodies. He belongs to the type of short upper body and slender lower body. This situation is not known as the inheritance of the family, but is caused by the living habits of riding horses.

Judging from the face shape, Maodun has prominent eyebrows, thick eyebrows, and a pair of eyes that are very inconsistent with the face shape, which makes people look weird.

"I heard that Li Hou is brave and good at fighting, and all the soldiers under his command are brave. When I saw him today, it was true, haha!" Maodun looked at Li Yuan for a while, and his eyes flashed with a bright light and he laughed.

In terms of age, Li Yuan was more than ten years younger than Maodun. Such a young and excessive opponent made him feel strong jealous. The years in the north were bitter and cold. For a man, he had only been strong for more than ten years. Maodun is still in the best state of his body, but in a few years, the situation may be different.

"The Great Shanyu was joking. If my Da Qin soldiers were good at fighting, how could they be as decayed as they are now and be bullied?" Li Yuan smiled faintly and said.

Maodun's words meant to be provocative. If Li Yuan nodded in agreement, Maodun's next sentence would probably be like this, then we will each have a few warriors to compete. How about this? Maodun has probably used such tricks and methods, but it is really nothing for Li Yuan, who is "informed".

Mao Dun's expression tightened, and after a while of silence, he raised the wine cup beside him and drank it all, saying, "I heard that a wise man from Confucius in the Central Plains said something, "Is it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar? Today, it is also a kind of fate to meet you and me here. After drinking this cup, how about making any other things?"

"This wine is a good wine, but unfortunately it's too weak." Li Yuan finished drinking without being outdone and said in a deep voice. The wine of this era is equivalent to the rice wine of later generations. In terms of alcohol content and purified white wine, Li Yuan's alcohol content cannot be said to be very good, in this kind of scene, he will not be afraid of a bully.

After three rounds of wine.

The whole roasted mutton was also brought up. Li Yuan held a lamb leg without hesitation and chewed it up without caring it. While eating, he also praised: "Da Shanyu, eat it quickly. This lamb is the most delicious when it is hot. Unfortunately, the seasonings are only salt, like Western pepper, or anything else. If there is pepper, just sprinkle it a little, it is really the most delicious thing in the world."

After a long time of traveling. Faced with the boring food of this era, Li originally ate millet cakes and ate millet rice. Now, the wheat has finally achieved a little harvest and can barely improve the batter. The life is as sad as it is. Even if you occasionally have some wild game, you can only barely get the food because of your backward cooking techniques.

Today, the servants around Maodun showed this barbecue skill, which allowed Li Yuan to experience another grassland food culture that was different from the Central Plains.

Having something delicious is a kind of happiness.

Li Yuan, who had a deep understanding of this, began to attack this position that he was most interested in after seeing the delicious roasted lamb legs.

"Mr. Li, it's really boring to just drink and eat meat. Why not compete with you and I each have three Warriors, how about it?" Maodun frowned and suggested.

"Well, Da Shanyu, this piece is really good. It's golden and golden, you can try it too." Li Yuan kept nodding and shook his head, and his mouth never stopped for a moment.

"I just know how to eat it--how can't I be too busy to hold you up." Mao Dun cursed in his heart. He tried several times with words. The reply he got was a series of ummy, delicious meaningless words from Li Yuan. The Great Huns' Chanyu was not so humiliated. However, this barbecue was roasted by his people. If it was not delicious, it would be like slapping himself in the face.

The fire shivered in the cold wind.

Just like this tense and suffocating atmosphere, the warriors from Qin and Hungary were all tense and stared at each other. With just one order, it would be a fierce battle.

Li Zhongxiang held the big bow and hid behind Cao Xin. A sharp arrow in his right hand had already hit the string end, and the sharp arrow cluster aimed at Maodun.

The Huns were good at shooting, and there were also people who were good at shooting on the Qin army. Li Zhongxiang's three arrows in the battle against Chen made Li Yuan remember this young man at once. When selecting the warriors at the entourage, Li Yuan personally named Li Zhongxiang and included Li Zhongxiang among his personal soldiers, which made the old soldiers in the baggage camp envious.

What is a personal barracks?

It is the place where generals were released. Luo Jia, Wang Shang, Cao Xin, Bai Guangji, all came from Li Yuan's personal army. Li Zhongxiang's leap, as long as there is nothing unexpected happens, he is almost an inevitable candidate for the general.

It's finally difficult.

Just when Maodun's anger was about to break out, Li Yuan finished eating.

"Da Shanyu, thank you for your hospitality. It's still late, so you can avoid competitions. If the warriors are interested, you might as well meet the battlefield in the future. Now let's talk about the main business. May I ask, when are you going to retreat to the grassland?" Li Yuan wiped his greasy hands and remained calm.

The meal was so angry that he had spent most of his time waiting for Li Yuan to eat meat. But if he didn't take the conversation now, the meeting would be completely meaningless. It would be impossible to let Li Xiaozhe have a tyrant meal in vain.

"General Li, I, the Great Huns, will never retreat until I get what I want." Maodun sneered and shouted with a momentum.

"Oh, the big Shanyu means that he will continue to fight. Well, I'll accompany you. It's just that the weather is cold, which can be regarded as exercising the muscles and bones." Maodun's verbal threats did not play any role in Li Yuan, who was superior in strength. He had long seen the bargaining method at the negotiating table. If Maodun really wanted to fight, how could he propose a meeting? Isn't this the place without 300 taels of silver?

"General Li, the Great Huns' string control personnel are no less than 300,000. As long as I give the order, the army will move south. Can it bear the power of Qin?" Maodun stood up and said to Li Yuan's face and fierce.

"Three hundred thousand, the Great Shanyu is talking in his sleep. The grassland is cold and the troops are not united. The Great Shanyu can mobilize 100,000 people to come south, so I, the Great Qin Jian, are afraid of me, "Li Yuan laughed and poked Maodun's cowhide without hesitation.

Based on Li Yuan's understanding of the history of the early Han Dynasty, it would take at least five years before Maodun's power could reach its highest peak. During the siege of Baideng, Maodun's Xiongnu cavalry dispatched reached 500,000. Now, in just two years of rising, the Xiongnu attacked the Donghu in the east and defeated the Yuezhi in the west. It seemed to be glorious, but in fact, Maodun's internal rule was not stable.
