Xining chewed a small piece of meat slowly: "Yes, it was exchanged with the fourth prince."

There were too many exchanges this time, but the meat is cheap enough, probably cheaper than food in the past. It has been prepared to be shipped to the nearest workshop to be made into bacon, which can be stored for a longer time. More quantities have been reported

Went to the King of Han.

This year's grain harvest was poor, coupled with the snowstorm, many places have opened official warehouses to release grain for disaster relief. Unfortunately, there are too many monks and not enough rice. In some places, the official warehouses are not enough. This meat should be able to save urgent needs.

The envoy asked with curiosity: "It is said that the county leader started to stock up on grain and goods as soon as he arrived. Did he have the foresight to know that it will be extremely cold this winter?"

"No!" Of course Xining couldn't admit it: "I just have nothing to do and want to do some business. I just buy whatever is cheap."

I buy winter things in summer, and it has been a mild winter for two or three years in a row. The things I bought are indeed cheap, but I would never believe it was just a coincidence.

If the city cannot be defended, it may be a coincidence. But if the county lord is able to defeat the strong with the weak and hold the city until reinforcements arrive, it cannot be achieved by luck alone.

The messenger took another sip of wine, and the hot taste made him exhale: "Good wine!"

That's natural. It will ignite if you light a fire. Drink half a bowl and your face will be rosy and your whole body will be warm. If you run out of kerosene, wine can take its place. It won't burn you little bastards to death.

Soon after, a message came from the Great Khan, saying that since the Lord of Changping County was so calm, how could they have the audacity to search the city again and let the envoy go back first, while they searched again in the area where Huxie Maodun disappeared.

The envoy left, and General Wei complained a little: "Why are they allowed to stay? The county leader should let them return to the outside of the pass."

You still dare to complain. My sister has been stationed here for three months, and the Huns have been stationed outside the north gate for three months. What's wrong with staying a few more days now?

If it was useful, they would have left long ago.

If you have the ability, go and fight and drive all these guys out.

However, her seniority has made her less angry and she has become more and more gentle. Does anger have any effect anyway? If anger can solve everything, why fight?

"If you bring it up now, it will be suspected of being a thief with a guilty conscience; and it will definitely provoke a war." Xining explained unhurriedly, just like a kindergarten aunt, she must be careful and patient. She smiled faintly: "If you want to search, just search, he also

Don’t dare to stay too long.”

Why? On the one hand, spring is coming, and on the other hand, the 60,000 soldiers guarding Yanmen will arrive in three to five days. By then, if the 100,000-strong army really fights through, the 80,000 Xiongnu soldiers may not get much benefit.

.

After hearing what the envoy had said in detail when he came back, the Great Khan released Uvida. Then he began to search all over the place to find Huxie Maodun's body. He wanted to see the person alive, but wanted to see the corpse after he was dead.

But the Great Khan still has a glimmer of hope. The worst outcome is to die and be eaten by wild beasts. Otherwise, he should still be alive. You must know that Huxie Maodun is very valuable. Even if he dies, there will be someone on the body.

If you grab it, use it to redeem the reward.

Uweida walked out of Aobao, prepared to mount his horse, and took a pair of people to find Huxie Maodun.

A gust of wind blew and a piece of paper was blown over.

Uweida picked up the paper and looked at it. It was the head of Changping County who had changed the reward. On the rough paper, he drew the portrait of Huxie Maodun, and also wrote that anyone who could find a living person would be rewarded with a reward of one hundred taels, and if the corpse could be found.

Or a reward of one thousand taels of silver for providing valid clues.

This painting is too rough, but it's still quite realistic. This picture of a bounty looks like a version of a bounty for a notorious thief, and Huxie Maodun also looks similar.

The head of Changping County is really not rude to others. He can't say anything bad about her, but he still wants to thank her.

The corner of Uvida's mouth curled up, and he handed the reward paper to a soldier next to him, got on his horse, and led the people to look for him. But he had a feeling that he would not be found, but he had to look for it and make a show of it.

It was already four days later when the 60,000 soldiers guarding Yanmen arrived together with food and fodder.

News also came from the capital that Huxie Maodun had been sent to the capital.

It was he who panicked and headed east that day. He lost his way while escaping on horseback, and the horse collapsed from exhaustion. He didn't know how long he walked, and finally he fainted from the cold. It was a mountain villager who saved him, but unfortunately the weather was cold and he had two bones.

My thumbs were frozen off.

The sword inlaid with gems on his body made the villagers feel that he was not an ordinary person, so they went to report to the official.

The officials threw out who he was and did not dare to make the decision without authorization. They sent him to the capital to let the King of Han decide.

Of course, this bizarre and logical story was fabricated by Xi Ning.

She wrote a letter to the King of Han: "The prince of the Xiongnu is afraid of running away, or being captured, what better to do than to live in peace?"

Of course he fainted while escaping and was rescued and sent to the capital, which even more embarrassed the Huns!

For this reason, the capital notified the people three days in advance that no hard objects were allowed to be thrown, no eggs, no eggs, no eggs, no eggs, no eggs, no eggs of any kind. Now dripping water turns into ice, and eggs can be frozen into ice lumps, which are no less than stones when thrown.

But we can't kill the Huns prince who we finally got.

As a result, the common people began to collect rotten vegetable leaves. By the time Huxie Maodun's prison car passed by, the rotten vegetable leaves on the prison car had almost piled up into a mountain, enough to feed ten pigs.

As for Huxie Maodun, he may not have the chance to return to the Huns to explain all this to his father Khan.

Even if it is explained, it may not be able to be explained clearly.

Even if the Great Khan believes it, how can the world believe it?

The blame has definitely been laid, and the King of Han has an extra hostage. A son is still a son no matter how unsatisfactory he is, it depends on how the King of Han uses it.

After hearing the news, the Great Khan immediately felt embarrassed. In addition, there was no need to fight at this time and there was no gain, so he was ready to go back with his team.

Before leaving, Xining ordered all the burned corpses of the Huns that had been frozen into black icicles to be sent to the Huns camp.

The Khan dealt with it simply. He set a fire and continued to burn until everything was reduced to ashes. If a relative died, just grab a handful of ashes and take them back with him, as an explanation to his family. Anyway, no one’s ashes are worth it.

It's the same.

The garrison left 10,000 people to Linguan, re-fortified the border, and garrisoned. The rest returned to resume their duties, taking away the excess beef and mutton when they left. The king of Han had already distributed this batch of meat, and the army brought the food and grass they came with.

The food and grass that went back were no longer picked up, and the meat was eaten all the way, and it was almost enough to reach the capital.

Xun Liao and the remaining soldiers also returned to Linguan. They were originally the garrison at Linguan.

This battle is finally over!

Xi Ning returned to the house, and everyone was beaming with joy. This New Year was not a good one, and the same was true for the Lantern Festival. They all discussed making up for it as a celebration.

Xi Ning is too lazy to take care of it. Anyway, there is not much money in the house, and the goods in the warehouse are basically empty. It will take at least one or two months for the entire Linyi County to have people slowly come back. Now it is very idle.

Just in time to listen to some songs and watch some dancing.

Why isn't this mission over yet? We've saved the owner's life, and the rewards should come soon.
Chapter completed!
