Xu Haifeng ordered his troops to discard some of the heavier and bulkier tribute items that would obviously slow down their march.

  Before today, Su Chunwei and Liu Junsu, despite their great respect for him, still had a hint of official airs in their words and deeds, which was the legacy of their birth into large families.

  However, at this moment, Xu Haifeng gave an order, and they immediately executed it with lightning speed, no longer dragging their feet.

  After witnessing the true strength of the Black Flag Army, no one could possibly have even a hint of underestimating them again. Su Chunwei and others' gaze towards Xu Haifeng had transformed from equality or slight disdain to admiration, which is why they would not refute his words and carry out his orders without hesitation.

  Once they got rid of the unnecessary burdens and suddenly had more than 4,000 fine war horses, the whole team was like it had grown a pair of wings, running extremely fast.

  By the time the sun set, they had marched dozens of miles, several times faster than their usual speed.

  At Xu Haifeng's invitation, Su Chunwei and two others arrived at his camp.

  Their relationship has become extremely harmonious after more than three months of getting along with each other.

  Xu Haifeng didn't bother with courtesy either and directly ordered that the few captured prisoners be brought up.

  Although Jiang Kungming had given the order to kill them all, Hsu Hai-feng personally took the enemy general alive. Moreover, he also captured six of his personal guards, and these seven men were the only survivors of the five-thousand-man army.

  Jin Guanghua saw the seven unconscious prisoners suddenly exclaim "ah" and jumped up from his seat, walked to one of them, carefully examined him for a while, and shouted without regard for his image: "Impossible, I didn't see it wrong?"

  Xu Haifeng and others didn't know what he was up to, but since this person had always been steady and serious, becoming so flustered and alarmed, this matter must be out of the ordinary.

  "Brother Jin, is there anything wrong?" Among the three of them, Liu Junshu had the closest relationship with him, so he was the first to speak up and ask.

  Jin Guanghua raised his head, still visible on his face was an expression of incredulity: "If I'm not mistaken, this person should be one of the five Wanren Changs of the Xiongnu Flying Horse Army, known as the Grassland Ferocious Tiger, Chitu."

  Su Chun furrowed his brow, rubbed his head with his hand, and seemed to recall something. He muttered to himself: "Duo... this name sounds so familiar, I must have heard it somewhere before."

  Before coming to the Xiongnu, he had already looked through the names and preferences of the relatives of the main figures of the Xiongnu, although they may not be useful, but also prepared for any situation.

  "Hami Chi." Jin Guanghua slowly spat out these three words from his mouth.

  "Ah..." Su Chunwei was reminded, and suddenly remembered, slapping his forehead, saying: "That's right, Zuo Duo is the only son of Hamin, the national teacher of Xiongnu."

  Now that they knew his identity, everyone felt that this was a hot potato.

  Hami Xie held a high position in the Xiongnu state, second only to Modu Chanyu. In fact, Hami Xie was wise and resourceful, and even Modu Chanyu often listened to his advice and rarely rejected his suggestions.

  If there was a second person in the Xiongnu state, it would be Hé Mì Chī.

  It's hard to predict whether it's good luck or bad luck that the only son of such a big shot was captured by the Black Flag Army.

  Su Chunwei and Liu Junshu exchanged a glance, both seeing the same problem in each other's eyes: what to do?

  Jin Guanghua sighed, "Although Beidou is the only son of Xianbei State Preceptor Hami Ci, he was able to become the commander of the Ten Thousand Riders because of his own strength and merits."

  Xu Haifeng scoffed at this, saying that everything relied on himself. Since others knew he was the only son of Hami Stab, when evaluating military achievements, who dared not to offer their heads with both hands?

  If he didn't rely on Hami at all, unless he concealed his identity when joining the army.

  "This man's troops are brave in battle, fierce and fearless of death, with many great achievements. Seven years ago, during the war with our Great Han, it was his thousand-man cavalry that clashed with General Feng's army for a whole day without a clear victory or defeat, earning him the name 'Grassland Tiger'. Who would have thought that today he would be so easily defeated by General Xu?" Jin Guanghua looked at Xu Haifeng with even greater admiration and respect for the Black Flag Army's strength.

  "General Xu, in your opinion, how should this person be dealt with?" Su Chunwei asked.

  Liu Junshu was afraid that Xu Haifeng would not know what's good for him, and insisted on taking away his life. He took a step ahead and said: "This person is of great importance, cannot be lightly disposed of, it's best to wait until the Northern camp, hand over to Fang Daitong to deal with."

  Xu Haifeng saw that the three of them were all looking at him, and after a moment's thought, he ordered: "Go and invite the military advisor to come."

  A moment later, Jiang Gongming floated in.

  After listening to Xu Haifeng's account, his eyes habitually rolled around in a circle, and he smiled: "In that case, please hand this person over to me. I have my own way of dealing with him."

  Su Chunwei knew that Jiang Kungming was a learned and talented man, but today on the battlefield he had seen his ruthless tactics, and in his heart he was extremely worried that with one stroke of the knife he would cut off Duo's head, and at that time there really would be no room for maneuver left.

  He stepped forward, clasped his fists and bowed, asking: "I wonder how General Jiang intends to dispose of me?"

  Although he was extremely angry at the sudden attack by Modu, if it were not for the presence of the Black Flag Army, he would probably have been killed. However, Modu's identity was extraordinary, and if he had been killed, Hamin would certainly have urged Modun to launch an immediate attack on the Great Han, otherwise it would have been a strange thing.

  At present, the Han people are unprepared and cannot withstand such a sudden change. The best solution is to secretly release him, in order to delay time. To know that one more day can be delayed, there will be one more day of preparation, and the grasp will be greater by one point.

  His thoughts were naturally not hidden from Jiang Gongming who knew how to read minds.

  Jiang Kongming smiled slightly and said: "Since this person's identity is special, he can't be killed or beaten, so we have no choice but to release him on the spot."

  Su Chunwei thought for a moment and sighed: "It can only be like this."

  Xu Haifeng glanced at Jiang Kongming, his intuition felt that Jiang's words were somewhat empty and unrealistic, but he wouldn't expose him on the spot. He changed the subject, saying: "Although we can't touch Bi Duo, others don't have such scruples. Why not interrogate them now and see why they wanted to attack us?"

  His words were immediately agreed upon by everyone, and Xu Haifeng immediately ordered Zhe Bie to take away the stripped Duoduo and take good care of him.

  The rest of the people were splashed awake with cold water and subjected to severe torture, but unexpectedly these few men were extremely stubborn. No matter how they were tortured, they insisted that they had come to join the army to enjoy the autumn breeze, and refused to reveal anything.

  Many people were helpless and had no choice but to temporarily suppress them.

  Jiang Gongming said to Jin Guanghua: "General Jin, I have a favor to ask of you."

  Jin Guanghua didn't dare to slack off and asked: "General Jiang, if you have any orders, just give them to me. As long as it's within my power, I will absolutely not decline."

  "Alright, General Jin is the most familiar with the terrain here. Please hurry to the northern camp on horseback and inform Commander Fang of the situation here. Ask him to send troops to the border to meet us. If I'm not mistaken, within two days, the Xiongnu will definitely attack again, and next time they won't just bring 5,000 men." Jiang Kongming instructed solemnly.

  Jin Guanghua knew that this matter concerned the safety of the entire envoy team and couldn't be delayed. He responded with a sound, immediately exited the tent, and led his tens of thousands of soldiers to hurry towards the northern camp before dawn.

  Jiang Gongming waited for everyone to leave and came to the camp where Duo was detained, ordering him to be awakened.

  Waking up from a long and leisurely sleep, he immediately discovered that he had fallen into the enemy's hands. Before his eyes was a white-faced scholar who was looking at him with a gentle smile.

  "Who are you...?" asked Zhidao strongly and calmly.

  "Students are the Black Flag Army's General Jiang Gongming."

  "Oh... since I've fallen into your hands, that family has nothing to say. If you have the guts, just kill me with one knife." The words revealed a resolute tone.

  Chiang Kung-ming smiled and said, "General, you are wrong. For me to take your life would be as easy as turning over my hand. But today we meet to discuss some matters with the General."

  "You don't have to show off your eloquence, our family is not a bunch of cowards who fear death. If you think you can get something out of me, you're dreaming."

  "No...no..." Jiang Gongming shook his feather fan, shaking his head and saying: "The student knows that the general's temperament is straightforward, so naturally he wouldn't make such a suggestion."

  He looked at his expression carefully and didn't seem to be pretending. A thread of desire to survive emerged in his heart.

  "What do you want to do then?" asked Qiu Qian.

  He had made up his mind that if Jiang Kexing's reply could not satisfy him, he would rather die than betray the secret of the grassland.

  Jiang Kongming gazed into his eyes and said slowly, "I'll let you go back, tell Hami Qi that within half a year at most, the Black Flag Army will return to Lin'an City and won't obstruct your country's ambitions. I hope we can be considerate of each other and avoid further conflicts."

  He was made to feel uneasy by him and asked: "What do you mean by this?"

  Jiang Kongming snorted and said: "I just want to tell your father that the Han court is the Han court, and the Black Flag Army is the Black Flag Army. The two cannot be mixed up."

  He seemed to have understood something, thought for a moment, and said: "Alright, I'll agree to pass on the message to my father, but how he thinks about it is not something I can control."

  "That's natural." Jiang Kongming saw him nodding in agreement and a happy smile also appeared on his face, smiling brightly.

  Looking at this fox-like smiling face, a faint sense of fear arose in his heart.

  Jiang Kung-ming burst out laughing and said: "Please stay for a few more days, Brother Mo. Once we arrive at the northern camp, I'll send you back."

  Although extremely dissatisfied with Chiang's obvious intention of taking him as a hostage, Zuo Da did not dare to show any expression.

  He is also a good man, but whoever has a thread of life will not actively seek death. Even if he does so, it is human nature and cannot be blamed.

  Jiang Kung-ming turned around and left, walking to the entrance of the tent, suddenly stopped in his tracks and said: "There's one more thing, I'd like to ask Brother Tuo to pass on to your respected father."

  He was taken aback for a moment, thinking to himself why this person spoke in such a roundabout way, but he replied, "Please go on."

  Jiang Gongming lifted the curtain and walked out slowly, a faint voice entered the tent: "You gave me 5,000 horses, I'll give you a plan to destroy Liu."

  He opened his eyes wide in shock, staring incredulously at the spot where Jiang Kungming had vanished, speechless for a long time.

  However, he did not notice that what Jiang Gongming said was only to destroy Liu, but not to destroy Han.

  Perhaps for hundreds of years, in the minds of all Huns, these two vastly different terms have been confused as one.
