In fact, the southern advance of the Northern Huns this time is different from other eras, as Chanyu Huyan Chu is more composed compared to previous Chanyus.
This time, the Northern Huns have a clear purpose, unlike other periods in history where rage clouded their minds. Huyan Chu knows clearly what every step entails.
That's why Huyan Chu didn't lead all the Northern Huns southward, instead, he sent Xubo Cheng ahead to probe, and later dispatched Xubo Cheng and the Luandi Marquis, each leading ten thousand Hun warriors to explore.
For Huyan Chu, returning to the Eastern Prairie is to seek survival for the Huns, not revenge, fundamentally differing from previous generations.
Because of this objective, Huyan Chu is much more cautious than every Chanyu before him; his chess pieces are few, so he calculates each step carefully.
