"Let's go!"
Outside Xianyang City, 20,000 soldiers passed by one after another.
Xu Luo was dressed in military attire and riding on a horse.
Behind him were Xu Lao and Xu Xin, leaving the three treasures to Gao Yao.
Li Yan on the left and Zhang Han on the right.
He arranged for Feng Jie to be in charge of military history.
In the middle of the army formation, there were twenty carriages covered with black cloth.
However, it was guarded by a group of people, so no one could find out what was inside.
This expedition was not too pretentious.
Xu Luo didn't like it either. After Zhang Han reported that all the troops had arrived, he immediately set off.
On top of the city wall, Ying Zheng, Meng Tian, Li Si, and a few others were looking in the direction where the army had left, each with their own thoughts.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I can see that Young Master Xu's army is well-disciplined. I don't think there will be too many accidents in this battle.”
Meng Tian thought about it and said.
"Meng Qing, the Donghu Gathering cannot gather 200,000 men, but Zhen only gave Xu Qing 170,000 men.”
Ying Zheng sighed slightly. It was already too much to split the Meng Army into half.
However, the Lantian camp only had about 100,000 soldiers. They needed to guard the pass and Xianyang, so they couldn't allocate much.
Meng Tian said," Don't worry, Your Majesty. Great Qin's bows and crossbows are strong, and their armor and weapons are better than those of the Hu people. In addition, Young Marshal Xu is leading the most elite army of Great Qin. With the horseshoes and stirrels, Young Marshal Xu seems to have a backup plan, so I think there's no need to worry.”
Meng Tian was stunned by the horseshoes and stirrels that Xu Luo had made. Why had no one thought of such a simple thing?
However, these two things needed to be kept a secret for now, at least until the Xiongnu and Donghu were dealt with.
Therefore, his evaluation of Xu Luo increased a little.
Ying Zheng nodded.
Through the Black Ice Platform, he knew that Xu Luo had asked the class of alchemists to make a weapon.
Xu Luo had also come to tell him about the power of gunpowder.
Although Ying Zheng was skeptical of Xu Luo's words, he still chose to believe it out of trust.
"Black Dragon."
Ying Zheng suddenly called out.
"Your subject is here."
An inconspicuous person appeared behind Ying Zheng.
"Send out all the people from the Black Ice Platform who are currently not on a mission.”
"Yes, sir!"
After saying that, Ying Zheng turned around and left.
Meng Tian and Li Si were left behind, each looking surprised.
His Majesty actually sent people from the Black Ice Platform!
Especially Li Si, who had been trusted by Ying Zheng for so many years, the sense of crisis in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
In Xianyang City, Lu Su was looking at the things Xu Luo left behind with an especially serious expression.
"Big Brother Xu is fighting outside. I have to take care of his matters in Xianyang.”
As for Gao Yao, he had already joined the ranks of restaurant supervisors.
Although he was still worried about Yi Xiaochuan, Gao Yao believed Xu Luo when he said he could find him.
In the past few days, it seemed that this Brother Xu wasn't the bad guy that Xiao Chuan had described. The people he met all had good comments about him.
When I open the restaurant, I won't have to worry about Xiaochuan and my brother in the future!
......
"General, what is that thing inside the black cloth in the army?”
Li Yan asked Xu Luo curiously.
Zhang Han was also a little curious. Although he was in the Shao Mansion, he was also very curious about the things that were transported out from the place where the necromancers were.
It should be known that out of the five hundred soldiers that Ying Zheng had sent to guard the mansion, three hundred of them had been guarding outside the group of necromancers day and night.
Anyone who entered without permission would be killed without mercy!
Ying Zheng appointed Xu Luo as the general and led the army to attack. When the army returned, he resigned.
In addition, Xu Luo recommended Zhang Han as his deputy general.
This made Zhang Han extremely grateful. He had thought it would be Feng Jie.
Xu Luo smiled mysteriously. He had squeezed the necromancers for twenty hours a day to get them out!
"You'll know when the time comes."
Seeing that Xu Luo didn't want to say anything, Li Yan didn't ask anymore. After cheering, he rode his horse to the front.
This son of the Li family, who had always been very steady at home, released his true nature at this moment.
This was also his first time going out with the army, so he was curious about everything.
Xu Luo smiled and allowed Li Yan to rush out. However, he was thinking about Donghu in his heart.
The manufacturing method of stirrups and horseshoes had long been sent to the north.
Two days ago, Yao Rong had also gone north to gather intelligence.
According to the information given by Dunruo, Maodun was the current Chanyu of the Xiongnu.
Donghu's current strength was slightly stronger than Xiongnu's because the previous Xiongnu Chanyu, Touman Chanyu, had been defeated by Meng Tian.
Mao Dun had also satisfied all of Donghu's unreasonable demands in the early stages.
However, why did Donghu gather so many people? Were they really going to attack Great Qin?
Who gave them the confidence?
But now, no matter what the purpose of Donghu was, Ying Zheng had his eyes set on this wave.
After a long journey, they finally arrived at Shanggu County.
Yao Rong, who had been scouting first, came and told Xu Luo about the various intelligence he had gathered over the past few days.
Donghu was almost done gathering. The Xiongnu retreated a hundred miles and Mao Dun sent people to Donghu.
Other than that, there was one thing in the report that made Xu Luo frown.
A tribe near Shanggu County and Yuyang County, with hundreds of thousands of people, had harassed the border several times a while ago. They had even successfully killed a group of Qin soldiers and captured many people.
“...”Xu Luo was speechless." This Tu An whose brain was squeezed by the door.”
