The autumn is getting stronger and the north wind blows.

Ten days ago, the weeds turned slightly yellow, and now the earth is covered in gold, brilliant and brilliant.

The dead grass sways in the sky, swaying in the wind, showing layers of waves, which is very spectacular.

The Xiongnu royal court, Gaoliu City.

Gaoliu City was built in the Western Han Dynasty and has been around for hundreds of years. It is the only solid castle on the Xiongnu grassland that is no different from the Great Han city. The city is three zhang high and more than one zhang thick. There is no moat around the city, but there are trenches that are two zhang deep and two zhang wide, which is used to defend against cities.

So far, Gaoliu City has been besieged by the Han army for three days, but it has been surrounded and not attacked. Even so, the Xiongnu royal court is in danger.

At present, the tribal nobles headed by Yu Fuluo are just struggling to death. The city is already in chaos and tens of thousands of people are in panic all day long.

Outside the north city gate, the Han army camp was located on a high ground less than five miles away from the city. The camp tent stretched for several miles, and the gate was facing the north gate of Gaoliu City. The whistle and fast horses could reach in an instant. It was really eyeing, and it was quite like a whale swallowing the Xiongnu royal court.

Three days ago, Zhou Yu, the commander of the Xiliang army, led 30,000 cavalry, 20,000 infantry, and a total of 50,000 troops to the city. On that day, Gaoliu City was surrounded and blocked. What was quite strange is that the Han army did not attack the city after besieging the city, but it was just siege, and it seemed that it was not in a hurry to attack the city. The next two days have been like this, with swords and halberds standing in front of the city, standing in a row, with thick armor and flags, and powerful soldiers showing their power in the sight of the soldiers guarding the city in the Wangting, which made them afraid and changed their brilliance when they heard the drums.

However, what the Huns in the city didn't know was that on the night of the siege, 30,000 Han troops left the camp with the starry night, and then divided their troops to attack the tribes around the royal court, sweeping across the entire Southern Xiongnu tribe.

The reason why the Han army did not attack the city immediately was very simple. Zhou Yu's army rushed over from afar, and there were no large-scale siege equipment in the army. If it rashly attacked the city, it would be like hitting stones with eggs. Not only did it cause heavy casualties, it would be difficult to capture Gaoliu City. In view of this, how could the chief general Zhou Yu be foolishly ordered the city to attack the barbarian tribe? It is the top priority to divide troops to attack the barbarian tribes. After all the Hun tribes were removed, Gaoliu City was an isolated city, like a wolf whose teeth and claws were removed. It was just a sign of appearance, but it was actually vulnerable.

As of today, since the great victory of Qinglang Valley, Zhou Yu led his army to sweep the grassland tribe. The troops pointed out by the front of the troops, and it has been half a month since then.

At present, the Han army besieged Gaoliu City only has 20,000 infantry and 2,000 scouts and cavalry, and the remnants of the barbarian army in the city still have no less than 20,000 control soldiers, and their troops are even above the Han army besieged. If they dare to break through the siege or go out of the city to fight, they are completely likely to break through the defense line of the Han army, flee, or defeat the Han army, and turn danger into safety. It’s a pity that the barbarian army is now frightened, with people panic and no fighting spirit. They have no courage to fight to the death. The leaders of various tribes led by Yu Fuluo were even more trembling and shrank like turtles. As long as the Han army did not attack the city, they would not even dare to go up the city, and lived in the palace, completely losing the fighting spirit and courage to fight head-on with the Han army, and survived to survive.

They did not know that many things happened in the three days of Gaoliu City being besieged, and they were the bad news they most wanted to hear. Some of them were secrets they wanted to know but couldn't know, but this was the most deadly key. The Han army seemed to be besieging the city, but in fact they divided their troops to sweep the various divisions of the Huns; the commander of Xiliang Li Li met the "Bright Moon on the Grassland" Que Yueer, and not only picked the flower of the Huns' royal court, but also surrendered the powerful generals of the Huns tribe, who were second only to Yu Fuluo and the Huchuquan brothers.

Things like this are one to two, and they are happening every day. The Han army gradually collapsed the foundation of the Southern Xiongnu tribe that had been passed down for a hundred years. All of this was still kept in the dark and unaware of it. Until now, they were still looking forward to the supporters behind them launching an attack, giving Li Li and his thunderous attack to the Xiliang army under their command, so as to realize their beautiful wish to surround Wei and save Zhao, and to break the siege of Gaoliu City.

In the camp tent east of Wang Tingya's tent, Zuo Xian Wang Huchuquan lifted the curtain and walked into the big tent lightly.

"Uncle is here." Liu Bao, who was on the sick bed, immediately got up and sat on the bed, saluting respectfully.

Seeing that Liu Bao was seriously injured, he could get up quickly, a strange color flashed through Huchuquan's eyes, and then walked to the couch quickly and said anxiously: "Baoer, lie down quickly, you are seriously injured, you are weak, and need rest urgently. Besides, there is no need to be polite between our uncles and nephews, are your injuries better?"

"Thank you for your concern. My nephew is not seriously injured and his wounds have healed. He will recover soon." Liu Bao said gratefully.

Hu Chuquan nodded happily and said with relief: "That's great. Baoer is worthy of being my Hun warrior. He is strong and has amazing recovery. If it were me, the sword of the Han thief that day would have been dead for a long time, but Baoer, you can survive the death disaster and recover in ten days, safe and sound. It's really gratifying!"

"My uncle has been too rewarded, and it is also a lucky opportunity for me to escape this disaster." Liu Bao responded with a happy expression and asked softly: "My uncle has been lying on the bed these days. I wonder what the situation of the civil war in the city is?"

Hu Chuquan's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and his expression shook his head dimly, and said in a deep voice: "The situation of the battle is not optimistic. Our situation is worrying! Three days ago, the Han army was at the city, and then surrounded the royal city, which was out of water. At this point, we have never received the latest battle reports from various tribes. We are trapped in the city, blinded by the Han thieves, and know nothing about the outside world. At present, 50,000 Han troops are eyeing outside the city. The reason why the Han thieves have not attacked the city these days must be that they have no weapons to attack the city, so they do not attack. However, with these three days, the Han army can create a large number of siege weapons, and they are expected to attack the city in large numbers soon. So we don't have much time left for us. Either lead the army to break through or sit and wait for death. There is no third way to choose from."

When Liu Bao heard the sound, he changed his expression. He was both angry and worried, and he seemed to be in a state of peace and anxiety.

"Uncle, are we nothing possible? I think my Great Hun tribe has been inherited for hundreds of years. How can it be passed down to us and destroyed by the Han thieves?" Liu Bao asked anxiously.

Hu Chuquan shook his head slightly and whispered sadly: "The situation of the war has worsened to this point. We are trapped in the city and have no choice but to do anything. Besides, your father's injuries are getting worse. Even if you are interested in military affairs, you are still powerless. The leaders of other departments are helpless and can only drink and have fun all day and live a life of ease. To this day, the entire royal city will have no fighting spirit, low morale, and low morale. What else can you do in this situation?"

Liu Bao was disgusted when he heard this and lay in great disappointment on the sickbed. His expression was dim and decadent. His previous indignation and anger dissipated, like a calf who failed duel, discouraged and listless.

Liu Bao's decadent expression was captured by Hu Chuquan. Suddenly, his brows twitched gently, a bright light flashed in the corners of his eyes, and the dullness on his face quickly disappeared. Then he said softly: "Baoer is injured. The most important thing now is to take care of her body as soon as possible. Other things will be discussed after the injury is healed. By the way, Baoer needs to prepare. The crowning ceremony of the Shanyu in the royal city will be held tomorrow, and you should attend in full dress."

"The coronation ceremony of the Shanyu?" Liu Bao woke up from the sound and said angrily with anger: "When is it now? The Han thieves are at the city, who is still interested in participating in the ceremony of the Shanyu's succession? It's like playing the piano randomly. It's just a matter of causing trouble!"

In addition to being angry, Liu Bao suddenly felt something and asked suspiciously: "Uncle, who is going to inherit the position of Shanyu? Is it my father?"

"That's right." Hu Chuquan nodded and then explained: "The elder brother is already the Shanyu of our tribe, but he was blocked by the clan leader and tribal nobles before and could not return to the royal city. Therefore, he has been stranded in Shangdang County, with only the name of Shanyu, but there is no Shanyu. This time, the clan leader promised his brother in front of the formation. After the war, he held a ceremony for the succession of the tribe and handed over all the power of the tribe to his brother to take over. Only in this way can he be justified. Unfortunately, the clan leader has now been killed, and your father was seriously injured by the Han general. His injuries have continued to worsen today. I am afraid that there will be more danger and less time."

Speaking of this, Hu Chuquan said with a sarcastic voice: "I have been separated from your father for many years. I have been controlled by the nobles of various tribes and have been held hostage by them. I have no choice but to help my brother ascend to the throne as soon as possible. But I know that your father's greatest wish in his life is to one day succeed to the throne and take charge of my Great Hun tribe. Therefore, I have worked hard to prepare for the throne these days. Now everything is ready and I will officially ascend the throne tomorrow!"

"Ah! So my uncle was the one who organized the succession ceremony?" Liu Bao asked in surprise.

"Yes, it was me." Hu Chuquan nodded slightly and said, "I reported to your father in advance, and then I started preparing after I got the approval."

"Father is so confused! At this time of life and death, holding the Shanyu succession ceremony will make the tribe members feel disappointed?" Liu Bao complained.

Hu Chuquan said disapprovingly: "Baoer's words are wrong. You only know one but not the other. After all, you are too young. You and your father have lived in the Han area for a long time. Haven't you heard the sound of geese passing by and people leaving their names? Now your father's injuries are getting worse and worse, and he has not been in the future. What he needs most at this time and what is his unfulfilled wish? Have you never thought about these? You can't imagine that my uncle doesn't blame you because you are still young after all, and many things are not unexpected, but you don't think about them at all. But my uncle must not refuse to do something for your father, so that he can never regret it in his life. If he has a long wish, he will be laughed at the end of the day. So I handled this matter with my own hands and has nothing to do with your father. If Baoer wants to complain, I will blame me."

"Uncle!" Hu Chuquan's words made Liu Bao burst into tears, and he said gratefully: "It was all my nephew who was young and ignorant and could not understand his uncle's good intentions. My nephew blamed him wrongly, please punish him!"

Hu Chuquan smiled comfortably and comforted her softly: "Leopard doesn't have to blame himself. You can rest well. As long as you can understand your uncle's hard work, leave the rest to me. I will also go to visit your father. Leopard doesn't move, and you don't have to see him off!"

While speaking, Hu Chuquan patted Liu Bao on the shoulder with a smile, covered him with the horns of the quilt, and then turned around and left.

With Liu Bao's gratitude on his face, Hu Chuquan quickly left the tent. Until he walked dozens of steps away, he suddenly stopped and looked back at Liu Bao's tent. His eyes were cold and impatient, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He only heard him whisper: "I really didn't see that this little beast has some knowledge. He could actually see that the succession ceremony was to dig a grave. I really underestimated him before. But it's not too late to find out now. As long as the old guy dies, this little beast will be able to use it for me, so why not do it?"

Speaking of this, Hu Chuquan's face was filled with a gloomy sneer, his eyes were quite contented, and he murmured to himself: "The Grand Chanyu's ascension ceremony was not only for Yu Fuluo, but I was also coveted for many years. I have spent all my efforts to prepare for the ceremony this time. How can I marry others? This is all for myself. After all, there is only one position in Shanyu, but we have two brothers. What if it does? Brother, brother, God is destined that you will not have the fate of the Shanyu position in your life. Don't blame your brother for being cruel!"

With a grim smile, Hu Chuquan looked up at a group of geese returning south in the sky, shook his head and sneered, and then walked straight towards the tent.
