"Huns?" As soon as Zhao Dan heard this, he immediately lost the mood to continue the inspection, and hurriedly followed Li Mu out of the factory, and soon returned to the county guard mansion in Yuanyang City.

Chen Hao, the county guard of Yunzhong County, had been waiting for a long time, and immediately came up to salute after seeing Zhao Dan: "I've seen the king!" ”

Zhao Dan waved his hand and said to Chen Hao: "What's the matter, the Huns still dare to go south?" ”

In fact, when he received this information, Zhao Dan was very surprised.

Summer is not the usual season for the Huns to go south. The horses don't have any fat, so they run with anything.

Moreover, why did the Xiongnu go south?

Obviously, he was just beaten up two years ago, hasn't he learned a lesson yet?

Zhao Dan suddenly felt that it seemed that Zhao Guo had not done enough to collect intelligence on the Xiongnu side.

Chen Hao saw Zhao Dan asking, and hurriedly replied respectfully: "King, that's the case, yesterday at the Great Wall of the North caught a Hun spy who insisted that he was the eldest son of the Aries King, and he had something important to see the king. ”

"Son of the Aries King?" Zhao Dan was stunned when he heard this.

If the full name of the Xiongnu in the later Maodun Shan Yu period was "Xiongnu Empire", then the full name of the Xiongnu today should be called "Xiongnu Tribal Alliance".

One is a nomadic state and the other is a nomadic union.

The current Xiongnu is a very loose association composed of many large and small tribes, each tribe can be regarded as a small country, and this title alone is actually the same as the so-called martial arts alliance leader in martial arts, a little power, but compared with the king is far from the king.

In such a situation, the situation of the tribal patriarch of the Xiongnu being called the king is very common, for example, the active and relatively strong Xiongnu kings include the Hun evil king, the white sheep king, the Hutu king, the Lu Tu king, the Ao Gong king, the Lihan king, the Xiu Xun king, the Outuo king, the Xiqi king, the right Gaolin king, the Gugu Nu king, the ancient Yi Zhizi king, etc., and other unfamous kings abound.

According to Zhao Dan's memory, this Aries King should be one of the Xiongnu kings, and he also belongs to the relatively strong kind of Xiongnu king.

Such a Xiongnu king actually sent his son to Zhao State, could it be said that there was really something very important?

Zhao Dan thought for a while, and asked Chen Hao in front of him, "Does this person have any evidence to prove it?" ”

"Yes." Chen Hao took out a small bone fragment from his arms: "King, this is the evidence." ”

Zhao Dan held this bone fragment, which was only slightly larger than the nail cover, and found that this bone fragment was very smooth, and it looked like it was often touched, and the bone fragment seemed to have been sharpened, with long and long sharp tips and some curves, resembling a miniature white sheep's horn.

In addition, there are several small characters as thin as mosquitoes and flies engraved on the front of this sheep's horn-like bone fragment, which obviously do not seem to belong to any of the characters that Zhao Dan knows.

Zhao Dan looked at Chen Hao in front of him with some doubts: "How can you be sure that this thing is the token of the Aries King?" ”

Chen Hao replied: "Back to the king, the king of Lou Fu now lives in Yuanyang City, and the minister sent this thing to the palace of the king of Lou Fu, and the king of Lou Fu personally confirmed that this thing came from the king of Aries. ”

Zhao Dan suddenly realized that this Lou Fu Wang, since he surrendered to Zhao Guo, he was escorted to Yuanyang City under house arrest, and now he is over eighty years old and has not died, and he can be regarded as a birthday star.

This King of Lou Fu has been quite honest since he surrendered, and since he has confirmed it, then this token should be true.

After all, Chen Hao is also an old official who has been in the officialdom of Zhao State for decades, and he will definitely not and dare not conceal this kind of thing.

Zhao Dan thought for a while and said, "Where is the son of the Aries King?" Call him, and see what he has to say. ”

A moment later, a Xiongnu man who was tied up by five flowers was brought to Zhao Dan.

Zhao Dan carefully looked at the man in front of him, with messy curly hair, not a tall figure, quite obvious looped legs when walking, and a pair of small eyes full of anger, typical Hun appearance.

To Zhao Dan's surprise, this Hun could also speak Zhao Chinese, or Jin.

"Call your king, I am the eldest son of the king of Aries, Xianshan, and I have something important to tell you king!"

Zhao Dan frowned, and slowly spoke: "The widow is the king of Zhao, what do you have to say?" ”

The Hun Xianshan paused very obviously, and then looked at Zhao Dan with a suspicious glint in his eyes: "Impossible, the king of Zhao should be a man like an eagle, how can he be as young as you......"

Zhao Kuo on the side couldn't listen to it anymore, and stepped forward to slap him in the face, and said sharply: "What a thief, dare to be so presumptuous in front of the king!" ”

Zhao Dan shook his head and said, "Let him continue." ”

Xianshan was slapped by Zhao Kuo's slap, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, but he said stubbornly: "Take me to Handan, I must see your king!" Otherwise, you Zhao Guo will miss an opportunity, a great opportunity! ”

Zhao Dan was a little speechless and looked at this virtuous Shan chattering for a long time, coming and going just to let people take him to Handan to see the king of Zhao State, and suddenly felt that this guy was a little stupid?

Zhao Dan looked at Xian Shan for a while, suddenly understood something, and interrupted Xian Shan's words: "Do you know King Lou Fu?" ”

……

When the white-haired King Lou Fu knelt down in front of Zhao Dan, and then turned around and muttered a few words to Xianshan in some dialect, Xianshan finally believed Zhao Dan's identity.

"Dear Emperor Zhao, please save our Aries tribe!" Xian Shan knelt down in front of Zhao Dan and cried loudly.

Zhao Dan looked at the appearance of this virtuous man dusting a handful of snot and tears, and he was also a little speechless in his heart.

What's the matter, when did the widow become a friend of the Huns, and he still had to save your Hun tribe?

Do you know you well?

But fortunately, Zhao Dan immediately understood the ins and outs of the matter.

"Hughley Shan is dead?" As soon as this news came out of Xianshan's mouth, everyone present showed a look of surprise on their faces.

After careful questioning, I found out that Hughley Shan Yu had been dead for half a year.

This Shan Yu was wounded by an arrow in the last battle with the Zhao army, and then did not deal with it on the way to escape, and after returning to Mobei, the injury attacked, and he died after supporting it for a while.

After Huleytan's death, several major clans fought for the throne, and the Aries King also took the tribe to participate.

However, after a scuffle, the ambitious Aries King became a loser, and was defeated by the Hun Evil King, the Hun Tu King, and the Lihan King, and was chased and killed by the Hun Evil King all the way on the way south, facing the desperate situation that the entire tribe would be destroyed.

Zhao Dan finally understood when he heard this, looked at the Xian Shan in front of him and said slowly: "So your father is planning to defect to the widow?" ”

"Exactly!" Xian Shan knelt on the ground and banged his head, and said loudly in the not too proficient Zhao Chinese dialect: "As long as the Great King is willing to accept us, then we are willing to return to the Zhao Kingdom like Lin Hu and Lou Fu and serve the Great King!" ”
