Chapter 37 Touman: How to Welcome
"Why did you choose me?"
Outside the royal palace of the Great Yuezhi Kingdom, the gray-haired Yves looked at the snow-covered street in front of him and sighed with a sad face.
After Prince Yi pretended to faint, he was a beat slower to react, and failed to faint! He also failed to run away! Therefore, as one of the few people in the palace who was highly respected and powerful, he was naturally named by the Queen of Yuezhi.
"You old bastard, you still have the nerve to sigh? Why did you drag me into this? Don't you know I wish you were dead? Why didn't you die two years earlier, so that those useless Huns could dig you up."
Behind Yves, another gray-haired minister caught up with him and started cursing at him with an indignant look on his face.
Yves turned around and rolled his eyes at the guy chasing him. He said with a righteous look on his face, "With me, how can I not have you? With you, I will be more confident! And I can negotiate with peace of mind. You and I should both endure humiliation and be willing to sacrifice ourselves for the Great Yue Clan!"
The person who knows him best is his competitor, and the same is true for his competitors, so he decisively dragged his competitors into the water.
"You old bastard! Shame on you!"
Hearing Yves' shameless words, He Tao, who also had gray hair, wanted to spit in his face.
How could he not know what was in the mind of the old man he had been fighting with for more than 20 years?
This is clearly a plan to die together.
If there is no way back this time, I will drag my opponent down with me to die together, so that when he is gone, I won't have to harm his descendants.
Because I really am that kind of person, but this old man won't give me a chance!
If we can come back alive, we will bear the blame together. No one will be good off, but no one can overpower anyone else.
Facing He Tao's scolding, Yves said with a smile: "How do you know that my last tooth fell out yesterday?"
"Hmph!" He Tao snorted. "Now I am too lazy to fight with you anymore, let's go to my house and think about what to say together!"
After saying that, He Tao walked away. Now he really didn't feel like fighting with the old man Yi Fu.
"Oh! My old waist! It's going to suffer again!" Yves also sighed.

In a blink of an eye, the Huns had been stationed in Dayuan City for eight days, and it was the first day of January.
"Report!"
At dusk that day, the cavalry who had been on reconnaissance came back in a hurry and came to Touman's tent, reporting loudly, "Great Chanyu, urgent news!"
"What's the matter?"
Hearing the report, Touman, who had just woken up, hurried out of the tent and asked.
"Reporting to the Great Chanyu, the Lich King's undead army has arrived at Yihu Lake, with approximately 800,000 soldiers and horses. It will take another three or four days to reach Dayuan City."
Hearing this, Touman was immediately shocked and asked, "Do you know who is the commander-in-chief? What kind of undead is this?"
Maodun told him about several undead spirits that often followed the Lich King. If he could know who they were, he could prepare to please them in advance.
"Forehead……!"
The reconnaissance cavalry was stunned.
Who is the undead leading the troops???
Just seeing the sea of skeletons marching like a long river was enough to scare the Huns. How could a small reconnaissance cavalryman dare to go over and ask who the commander was? It was already very good that he could roughly calculate how many undead had run back!
Looking at the soldier's appearance, Touman knew that the soldier probably didn't ask, so he didn't blame him and waved his hand. "Go down and rest!"
Then Touman ordered several guards around him: "Go and investigate immediately, bring more people with you, and report any situation at any time."
"Go and tell the leaders of each tribe immediately and ask them to come and discuss the welcoming arrangements."
——————Half an hour later————
Looking at the leaders of the tribes who had gathered, Touman said directly: "Everyone, I believe you have all received the news. Let me repeat it here. The Lich King's undead army has arrived near Yi Lake. The number is about 800,000. It is expected to arrive in three or four days, that is, in the evening of the fourth or fifth day of the first lunar month. How do you think we should welcome them?"
Hearing this, all the Hun leaders looked at each other in dismay, and a few of them even looked at Touman with some contempt.
Although the Huns do have to lick the Lich King in order to survive, you, Touman, are licking him too much!
The blood of your prairie wolf tribe has been eaten by dogs!
"What are you looking at?" Touman rolled his eyes and said, "The undead leading the troops this time must be the undead that the Lich King values. Maybe he can decide the distribution of the benefits of the war. Even if he can't, he can say some good things for us!" "But if he is unhappy and says a few bad words, no one knows what the consequences will be!"
"So, we must welcome it! We must welcome it with all our heart! We must welcome it with great fanfare!"
Hearing this, all the Hun leaders nodded. Although they felt a little disgusted, it was indeed the truth!
"Well, how about we send some beauties over!"
Jin Mi Ya said in a low voice.
He loved beautiful women the most, and his men would send him beautiful women every time they went on a robbery.
Hearing Jin Mi Ya's words, all the Hun leaders looked at him in surprise.
Is this fat guy not afraid of death? How can he say such a thing!
"Jin Mi Ya, you said it very well. Don't say it next time. No, you don't have to participate in the discussion. Wait until we have discussed it, and then you just do your part!" Touman said speechlessly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Touman quickly added, "No, I don't think you need to do anything. Just hide behind everyone. You don't need to say anything, let alone do anything!"
The other Hun leaders nodded in agreement.
If we let this fat guy do some hard work, he might cause some trouble. It's better to let him get out of the way.
At the same time, all the Xiongnu leaders gave this fat man a cross in their hearts and kicked him out of the list of candidates for the new Great Khan.
Although none of them wanted to become the new Great Khan, they could never let this brainless guy become the new Great Khan.
"I think we should give some fine gold and silver objects."
"No, exquisite gold and silver objects are not enough. The undead don't eat, and they don't enjoy themselves. Why don't we smelt a few golden undead men?"
"Isn't the golden man too small? It seems that we don't have enough sincerity!"
"Then carve a big statue of the dead!"
"The statue must be made to look majestic and majestic!"
"But is it too late? What if there is a mistake in the carving? And we don't know what kind of undead will come! If there is competition among them, it will be terrible if we make a mistake in the carving!"
"Then bring in more people and carve more of each type! No matter what type it is, show them off!"
"Then get some more gold and silver armor! The undead will probably like armor when fighting on the battlefield!"
"Are you just trying to please the commander who came? The Lich King must have a share too. It has to be better!"
"How about some singing and dancing?"
"Yes, let's prepare for the party as well. It's better to be prepared!"
"It's a party, but the dead don't eat!"
"Then we won't eat it either!"
"But how should we arrange the party? What songs and dances should we perform? What if we are not satisfied?"
"Mao Dun said that the inside of the Undead Mountains is very eerie, so let's make it as eerie as possible! Take out all the dead bodies and bones and pile them up!"
"Forget about the corpse, this is not good, not good!"
"not good?"
"No! Desecrating a corpse in front of the dead could easily lead to death!"
Next to him, listening to the discussion of a group of Hun leaders, Jin Mi Ya secretly spat.
He cursed in his heart: "Tsk! Where is the blood of you grassland wolf leaders? Have you all been eaten by dogs?"
