Although fifteen thousand men are not many, the Han army's equipment is generally well-equipped and its training is generally better than other armies.

So even these fifteen thousand people are enough to be called the main force.

The first thing the Huns saw was only 5,000 people. However, after taking Yixun, the Han army quickly set off for Goni, another city in Loulan.

To be precise, Goni is the real capital of Loulan, while Yixun is a small city.

However, in order to control Loulan, the Xiongnu forcibly moved the capital to Yixun.

In less than half a month, under the command of Zhao Tuo, the Han army controlled the entire territory of Loulan.

A force of 15,000 people is enough to control more areas.

But Zhao Tuo did not do this.

Now Loulan is also in dire straits. The time for farming has passed, but it cannot be done due to lack of grain seeds.

On the one hand, they sent people to quickly return to Wuwei County, which was the Han Dynasty border county closest to Loulan, hoping to get a batch of grain seeds from Wuwei County.

The other one was to release 5,000 people to continuously explore the surrounding situation. The remaining 10,000 people, except for sticking to the city, were all used for production and labor.

Although Zhao Tuo forged the edict, running Loulan was still very important to the Han Dynasty.

The edict can make them accept this reality temporarily, but it cannot make them accept it forever, or even accept it from the bottom of their hearts.

As a result, the army was split up and transformed into Shennong in an instant. At the same time, he took the people of Loulan to learn farming and taught them some agricultural production techniques.

On the one hand, losses are reduced through grazing.

This year's situation is like this. Even if it is the fastest, the next harvest will have to wait until next summer.

There is still a whole year to go. Fortunately, the population of Loulan is not large, only more than 14,000 people in total.

After the Xiongnu came and caused a lot of damage, the total number of people in Loulan was only about 12,000.

This small population is quite affordable for the Han army.

Of course, the mission was confused.

The Xiongnu controlled the entire Western Region, which also meant controlling their city-states.

Then there is no way for them to move forward with the goods they carry.

Even the Loulan envoy who is now in Loulan still looks confused.

The nobles in the city were either taken away by the Huns or killed by Ulutu. Basically, there were not many people who could afford to buy the goods he brought back.

So, with this wave of losses, I lost all my pants and couldn’t even repay the loan.

"Da Shanyu..."

"Da Shanyu..."

"The eldest prince..."

A general entered the Hun royal court in a panic, and when he saw that Maodun Chanyu was chatting with the eldest prince, Luo Tanjizhu, he couldn't help but pause for a moment, and his forehead was instantly covered with beads of sweat as big as beans.

"What's going on?" Modun Shanyu showed a trace of displeasure on his face.

He was discussing the next steps with his son.

The early preparations have been completed, the Huns have gained a lot, and the internal opposition has gradually disappeared.

In the face of huge interests, no one will stop them anymore.

While the two were discussing how to maximize their profits and continue to consolidate their positions, their subordinates suddenly broke in.

"The Great Chanyu, the Great Prince, the Han people are coming..."

"Han... Han?" Modun Shanyu suddenly froze, his whole mind went blank, and his whole body was trembling uncontrollably.

"Why did the Han people come? Haven't you already seen the terrain over there? There are no supplies for hundreds of miles, and there is no way for people to cross." Luo Tingjizhou frowned tightly.

"The Great Chanyu, the Great Prince, is really here. The main force is the Han people. Loulan has been lost. Our soldiers simply don't have the courage to fight."

"The main force? Don't even have the courage to fight???" Modun Shanyu became angry instantly.

Furious!

You can't beat me, but you don't even have the courage to fight?

Is this bitch still a Huns?

"Da Chanyu!" Luo Tanjizhu called his father quickly, then waved his hand to signal his men to go out.

When only his father and son were left in the tent, Luo Tan Ji Zhou began to say:

"Da Shanyu, the Han army came this time with the main force. We only deployed less than 4,000 people in Loulan. It is not an unforgivable thing for them to dare not fight."

"Our biggest problem now is that our military morale is unstable and our fighting spirit is not strong. The Han people have left such a profound impression on us that many people tremble all over when they hear the word Han people."

"We moved west just to regain our courage and solve some internal problems."

"But now it seems that the Han people obviously don't want to give us this opportunity. They just don't know how determined the Han people are to enter the Western Regions?"

Both father and son have experienced the power of the Han people. One was beaten and doubted his life, while the other was frightened and ran away quickly.

But these are not the most important, the most important thing is.

The father and son originally planned to complete their internal integration by moving westward to temporarily stay away from the Han people.

After all, they had swallowed up other small tribes before and then swallowed up the behemoth Donghu. Without a few years or more of digestion, it would be difficult for the Xiongnu to completely swallow these people.

There had been some dissatisfaction among the Xiongnu because of the losses. The Donghu people even heard about the trouble and started to make noises.

If it weren't for this problem, the Huns would have been able to move westward at least one year in advance.

Until now, this problem has not been completely solved, it can only be said to be temporarily suppressed.

What the father and son discussed today was actually how to deal with these problems next.

However, no one expected that the Han people came again, and they were the main force.

Coming from a place they had previously explored that was impossible to come to, this was very disappointing.

"Then what do you think?" Maodun Shanyu looked at Luotangji porridge, and his own mind was filled with confusion.

"First find out how many Han people have come. I guess there won't be too many of them. The Han people's diet is different from ours. They can't carry a lot of supplies. After we find out this problem, we can start to find their

Logistics, directly attack their supplies, and let these Han people starve to death in the Western Regions!" Luotang Jizhou said with a gloomy face.

"Wouldn't they just grab food on the spot? The southern part of the Western Regions is also farming, so it's easy to get food." Moton Shanyu shook his head. He felt that it was unrealistic to cut off the Han army's logistics.

Moreover, in this way, it does not have much impact on improving morale.

At least in Modun Chanyu's mind, the prairie man should defeat you openly and head-on, rather than win by stealing your ass.
