The Great Chanyu walked into the tent, patted the snow on his shoulder, and smiled at the general of Zhenbei who had arrived first, saying, "Let you wait for a long time." Then he quickly said a few words in the Xiongnu language.

Jin Chuduo walked out from behind the fat body of the Great Chanyu and translated: "The Great Chanyu said that you have been waiting for a long time. It is cold and the earth is frozen. I hope you can get used to it."

Han Ruzi arrived a while ago. As agreed, he only had one guard around him, and everyone else was left outside.

The Great Shanyu was not very good at speaking Central Plains. Through the translator's conversation, Han Ruzi refused to speak directly and muttered to the guards beside him. The guards shouted: "The Great Chu land is vast and the materials are abundant, and the four seasons are alternated all year round, and the people of Chu have long been used to it."

Jin Chuiduo translated in a low voice, and the big Shanyu laughed loudly, sat on a soft chair, and reached out to signal General Zhenbei to sit down, as if he was the master.

Jin Chuiduo and the guards stood behind the master respectively. The Great Shanyu and General Zhenbei were usually thinking, looking at each other, and then whispered their thoughts to the people behind them and let them speak out.

The most important thing in negotiations between the two countries is equality. Han Ruzi took the lead and waited in the tent for a while. He had already lost his momentum. When speaking, he must also convey it through others like the Great Shanyu.

"The Chu army is bluffing." Jin Chuiduo said, his voice was dull and his face was expressionless. His eyes flew over the heads of the two people opposite him and stared at a corner of the tent. "The most reinforcements arrived yesterday, and together there were only more than 80,000 people. The soldiers were tired and vulnerable."

"In the past few decades, the Chu army was vulnerable? Just a few days ago, the Chu army was the one who lost its troops?" The guards refused to fall at a disadvantage.

After listening to Jin Chuiduo's translation, the Great Shanyu laughed and let out a turbid cough.

Jin Chuiduo said: "General Zhenbei, don't be proud of one or two small victories. Now it is not decades ago, when the Chu army retreated to Henan and lost all its strength. The Huns have ended their division. I am not the pseudo-Khanyu of the Eastern Huns, I am the Great Khan of all the Huns. The East and West Huns have returned to one, with more than 200,000 string control men. Even the Chu army at its heyday is not our opponent."

"Why are the defeated generals saying bravely? The Huns were also aggressive at the beginning, but they ended up splitting east and west? The Western Huns fled thousands of miles away, and the Eastern Huns bowed their heads to surrender. The Great Shanyu was older. Don't you remember the past when Emperor Wu of the Great Chu?"

Both sides argued about which side had more soldiers, stronger morale, stronger combat power, and false and real words.

The Great Chanyu was not angry. After listening to Jin Chuiduo's translation, he laughed generously from time to time, but his health seemed to be not very good, and he would cough as he smiled.

The debate lasted for a long time, and the Great Shanyu chose to give in and said through Jin Chuiduo: "We are not here to quarrel, we want to have a peace talk, so let's talk openly and honestly, I'll come first."

The Great Chanyu said a lot, Jin Chuiduo nodded constantly, and after hearing this, he said to the opposite side: "The Western Xiongnu returned from afar, not to recognize his ancestors. We lived well in the west and didn't want to come back to fight with the Chu people. But there was no way, and the world didn't meet people's wishes. We came back, but we were also lucky. On the way, we met the Eastern Xiongnu people. The pseudo-Chhanyu died of illness and his sons fought for the throne, and even gave up the planned plan to lure and annihilate the Chu army."

"This is a reward given to us by God. It allows us to leave our hometown in the West, but gives us the entire Eastern Xiongnu. The Great Shanyu easily incorporated two Xiongnus from the east and west. General Zhenbei, the Xiongnu came, but he did not want to go to war with the Chu people. Attacking and smashing the Iron City was just a test to see how much bravery the Chu army had left back then."

The Great Shanyu said a few more words, Jin Chuiduo nodded and continued: "The Great Shanyu is quite satisfied with the Chu army, so he proposed a peace talk."

General Zhenbei whispered for a while, and the guards said, "The Chu army is not satisfied with the Huns yet. Why did the Western Huns return east? Why should we negotiate with the Chu army?"

After hearing Jin Chuiduo's translation, the Great Shanyu tried his hand and didn't speak, so he actually asked Jin Chuiduo to answer by himself.

"Let's not talk about the reasons why the Huns returned to the east, peace talks are good for both sides."

General Zhenbei spoke directly: "I only see the benefits to the Huns now."

"The Chu army scouts should have seen a large number of Xiongnu migrating eastward, right?"

"Well, they are all old, weak, women and children."

"That was the Chu army that was deceived. There was a large number of young and strong men behind the elderly, weak, women and children. There was no need to hide it now. Fifty thousand Xiongnu cavalry would arrive at Mayi City soon. If the general Zhenbei had no intention of peace talks, we could fight. The Huns didn't care about the outcome of this battle. If they could fight, they would fight. If they couldn't fight, they would retreat eastward. At that time, the Mayi City had been broken and the Huns entered the Chu territory, so there was no need for peace talks."

The faces of General Zhenbei and the guards changed at the same time. General Han Xing led his army into the pass to quell the rebellion. At this time, there were few garrisons left in Mayi City. Even if there were only 10,000 Huns invaded, it would be difficult for the Chu army to defend the city.

Mayi City is also outside the Great Wall, much larger than the Shattered Iron City. Once it is lost, it will be a heavy blow to the Chu army.

General Zhenbei turned his head and whispered to the guards for a while. The guards said, "Since he is open and honest, General Zhenbei also has a truth: the Chu army on the south bank is ready and will soon cross the river. The Huns may be able to seize the city of Mayi, but they will be defeated here. However, General Zhenbei believes that the peace between the Great Chu and the Huns is hard-won. Although there are some small conflicts, they will not turn against each other again. Therefore, he is willing to stop the Chu army's offensive plan and hold a sincere peace talk."

After hearing the translation, Da Shanyu laughed, suddenly stood up, walked forward a few steps, and opened his arms, as if he wanted to hug General Zhenbei.

Jin Chuiduo nodded slowly, General Zhenbei stood up, and the two walked forward at the same time, hugging each other. Compared with the Great Shanyu, General Zhenbei was too small and almost embedded in the Great Shanyu's belly.

The Great Chanyu retreated back to his original place and asked Jin Chuiduo to say, "The Great Chanyu said that being open and honest is a good start. Although the General Zhenbei was young, he dared to do things and did things. The Great Chanyu admired him very much. He was very happy that he did not choose the wrong partner."

General Zhenbei nodded, "I need to send someone back to stop the Chu army from crossing the river."

Jin Chuiduo asked directly: "There are many sentries outside, can't you send orders for you?"

"No, the sentry only reports safety. If the order is sent, the generals in the rear will not obey, but will cross the river in advance."

Jin Chuiduo retelled that the Great Chanyu waved his hand indifferently, and Jin Chuiduo said, "Okay, the Great Chanyu and the General Zhenbei each sent one person back to pass the order, and then continue the peace talks."

Jin Chuiduo and the guards walked out of the tent one after another. Nine Chu soldiers and nine Hun cavalry guarded dozens of steps away, holding flags facing each other.

Jin Chuiduo lowered his voice, "Do you think I will help you deceive the Great Shanyu?"

The guard smiled slightly. He could deceive the Great Shanyu he had never met, but could not hide the truth in front of Jin Chuiduo. "Your Huns speak very well."

Jin Chuiduo glared at the other party fiercely, unable to stay in front of the tent for a long time, and moved forward slowly, "I won't let you leave, and lead the Chu army to raid the Huns."

"I would like to swear to God that I went back just to quell the civil strife of the Chu army and would never attack the Huns. I am sincerely discussing. Once the matter here is over, I will go back to the capital. There is an accident in the court. I am more eager to end this war than the Great Shanyu, but I cannot say it explicitly now."

Jin Chuiduo remained silent. After taking a few steps, she said: "My Xiongnu language is actually very bad. The words of the Great Shanyu were prepared in advance. I just translated the general meaning of your words casually. The Great Shanyu said that he should look at people, not obedient. If your little follower is recognized, how can I explain it?"

"Then you translate it slowly, give me an hour, at most one hour, and I will come back and explain everything to the Great Chanyu."

"Then I also have the crime of concealment."

"I'm asking for your help. Most of the Chu generals are reluctant to negotiate and want to start a war and make meritorious service. If I fail..."

The dozens of steps were not far away, Jin Chuiduo called a Hun cavalry and ordered him to return to the camp. Han Ruzi couldn't understand the Huns' words and could not tell what Jin Chuiduo was saying, only knowing that she did not reveal the secret.

Han Ruzi jumped on the back of the horse himself, and the veteran general Fang Daye jumped off the horse, ready to enter the tent to act as a guard. With his rich experience, he could save the scene.

Snow falls all over the sky, and Han Ruzi gallops south alone.

Jin Chuiduo and Fang Daye returned to the tent. When Da Shanyu saw a veteran who was not much smaller than him, he smiled and said a few words.

Jin Chuiduo half guessed and half heard, and could roughly understand the meaning. When translating, he used his own words, "The Great Shanyu asked, the young guard just now was good, why did he change to an old man?"

Fang Daye walked behind the "General Zhenbei" and said, "When chatting, use young people, and when chatting, you have to change old people."

Jin Chuiduo's Huns' words were actually very clumsy, but the Da Shanyu could understand them. He patted his legs and said a few words loudly.

"The Great Shanyu was very happy. He said that at first glance, your Excellency was a veteran who had been through the battlefield and was trustworthy."

Fang Daye bowed slightly to greet him.

Jin Chuiduo stood behind the Great Chanyu and felt uneasy. The Great Chanyu trusted her and recognized her as her daughter. He could only bring one follower during the peace talks. She was chosen instead of those close friends who were proficient in the language of the two races.

But she helped outsiders deceive the Da Shanyu.

There was no way, her two brothers were already devoted to being Huns, and they wanted to return to the Chu army as soon as they had the chance, and their only target was General Han Ruzi, the Zhenbei.

Jin Chuiduo didn't want to leave the grassland. If she had known that she would make a lie for Han Ruzi in front of the Great Shanyu, she would refuse or not be a general translator, so she stayed out of the matter. Unexpectedly, she saw a big trouble as soon as she entered the tent. She hesitated many times but did not make it clear, in order to pave a way for her two brothers.

Moreover, she believed Han Ruzi, who was the one who took the risk to send them to the grassland, and she would do what she said.

Han Ruzi didn't expect that the person brought into the tent by Da Shanyu would be Jin Chuiduo.

Before he and Zhang Youcai set off, they exchanged their armor and armor, deliberately entered the tent a while in advance, quickly changed their helmet and cloak. So Zhang Youcai became General Zhenbei and Han Ruzi became a guard.

When Zhang Youcai muttered in a low voice, he actually said nothing. Han Ruzi himself answered that after he left, the task was handed over to Fang Daye.

Several Chu soldiers outside the tent came from the army camp and would never say a word in front of the Huns.

Han Ruzi rode alone in the south. When passing by a group of sentries, try to keep a distance so as not to be recognized.

The heavy snow helped a lot, and the sentries only said one more sentence: "The messenger of the general in Zhenbei returned to the camp. Peace."

There were many factions in the Chu army camp, and Han Ruzi couldn't hold on for a moment, and there was no clear evidence in his hand. He hoped that a chaos would break out between the generals when he was away, and he hoped that he could go back in time to stop the chaos, so as to hold the Northern Army firmly in his hands.

This is a plan that no one can accurately predict. Han Ruzi only knows one thing. Just riding alone back to the camp itself can gain a lot of prestige for himself. (To be continued.)
