"Hmm, it should be the latter. Otherwise, the Xiongnu wouldn't have suddenly destroyed the Juyan Kingdom. But where did that tiny Juyan Kingdom get so many supplies?"

Tan Shihuai looked at Han Sui with a puzzled expression.

Han Sui said somewhat uncertainly, "They must have plundered the Xiongnu's cattle, sheep, and horses to exchange for them, right?"

Then Han Sui said, "Chief, regardless of the circumstances, I believe it is time to negotiate with the Han envoy!"

"What you say is true, sir. The Xiongnu have plundered a large amount of grain, salt and other supplies. If we allow them to recover their strength, it will not be so easy to defeat them again!"

Tan Shihuai had no time to think about anything else. Although the Xiongnu were now in decline, they were still the biggest obstacle to the rise of the Xianbei. Taking down the Xiongnu would definitely come at a huge cost.

Therefore, in the eyes of Tan Shihuai and Han Sui, the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu were sworn enemies for hundreds of years. If they joined forces with the Han Dynasty to attack from the north and south, even if they could not eliminate the Xiongnu, they could weaken them again and better preserve their own strength.

"Someone come here!"

"What are your orders, Chanyu?"

Upon hearing Tan Shihuai's shout, one of the guards standing outside the tent rushed in.

"Go immediately and invite the Han envoy over!"

"promise!"

Seeing Tan Shihuai's anxious expression, the guards didn't dare to delay and quickly ran towards Chu Qian's tent.

Soon, Tan Shihuai's personal guards found Chu Qian.

"Han envoy, our...our Chanyu requests your presence!!"

"Okay! Please wait a moment!"

Seeing the anxious look on the person in front of him, Chu Qian smiled slightly and then slowly began to tidy up his clothes.

"Please hurry, Han envoy! Our Chanyu is waiting for you!"

Seeing Chu Qian's slow and deliberate manner, Tan Shihuai's personal guards couldn't help but urge him on.

"It seems something must have happened to make Tan Shihuai, who has been delayed for a month, so anxious now!"

Seeing the guard's anxious look, Chu Qian immediately had an idea.
