"The Xiongnu didn't lie about this mountain road. Although it's narrow, it's not a problem for a thousand to two thousand people to pass through! However, there were many forks. If one was not careful, it was easy to get lost!”
The Snow-Treading Black Dragon stomped on the last of the forest as if it was walking on flat ground! Chen Ping turned around and looked at Peace Village and even the Iron Chain Mountain Range, which could no longer be seen. He revealed a smile and said.
"With Sir here, those Xiongnu people naturally wouldn't dare to lie!”
Chu Yuan chuckled and flattered!
Li Guang glared at him and snorted,"
"Daren is asking you to remember the path yourself so that you won't be unable to find the path when you lead the troops in the future!”
The sarcastic words did not anger Chu Yuan at all. Instead, the corners of his mouth curled up into an even more meaningful smile.
" Commander Li, don't think that I'm you. I heard that it took four hours to find the way back to Peace Village after returning from Qingyuan County. If Winterfell is like this, who knows what will happen in the future!”
Li Guang was furious, but the other party was telling the truth. He couldn't find any reason to refute, so he could only snort coldly and say nothing more.
Chen Ping laughed.
"The two of you may bicker, but don't hurt your harmony!”
"Hehe, it's absolutely impossible for our Commander Li and I to be on bad terms! Don't worry, my lord! Commander Li can block knives for me on the battlefield!”
"Hehe, if you die in front of me, I won't even look at you!”Li Guang rolled his eyes at Chu Yuan coldly.
Chen Ping stopped smiling and finally looked at the land!
The autumn sky was clear and refreshing. There were no clouds for thousands of miles. The blue sky seemed to have merged with the grassland and hills. Just one glance could not help but give people a feeling of boundless pride and galloping!
Seeing that Chen Ping was no longer speaking, the others tactfully took back their words. At the same time, looking at the beautiful rivers and mountains here, Li Guang said with some emotion,
"To think that these Outsiders and Goguryeons would allow such a beautiful land to roam freely!”
"Well said!"
Chen Ping smiled again and took out the map that the Xiongnu people who had been detained had made!
"There is a Xiongnu tribe ten miles north! "Remember, we are only here to gather information and draw a complete map. We should try our best not to have any conflict with the Xiongnu. The Black Cloud Horse is a top-notch warhorse. Even if we want to leave, they will definitely not be able to stop us!”
Chen Ping instructed and then continued,
"Everyone must be tired after this journey. Take a rest and eat something first. Also, let the warhorses rest. Otherwise, if the Xiongnu come, we don't mind, but if the warhorses die of exhaustion, they will be damaged. The other five people were to scout the area! If there's anything important, come back and report it!”
After a short rest, the soldiers set up a fire and roasted some of the meat they had hunted along the way.
Chu Yuan looked around and pointed to the east.
" Sir, 200 miles to the northeast is Qiu Gate. Winterfell is about 10 miles away from Qiu Gate!”
Chen Ping nodded. Winterfell was able to guard the border year after year because of its strong army and the natural barrier of Qiumen Pass, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Huns couldn't unite their forces.
These Xiongnu tribes were divided into five parts: north, south, east, west, and middle. The Left Virtuous King Liu Bao that Chen Ping had captured was the younger brother of the current Chanyu of the Southern Xiongnu.
The Great Prairie of the Northern Frontier was too large, and the Xiongnu were not the only people who were here. Many foreign tribes were here as well. Now that the imperial court had collapsed and smoke was rising everywhere, these foreign tribes, who had been quiet, never stopped attacking!
Thinking of this, Chen Ping's thoughts drifted away. In his previous life, he was the same. The entire Jingchu land was under his control. The many foreign tribes in the southern barbarians, as well as the player forces, had never stopped attacking him!
If it wasn't for the huge amount of energy that was involved on Nanman's side, it was actually hard to say who would win or lose in the confrontation with Yuzhou's Bai Chen…
At the thought of this, Chen Ping's eyes revealed a hint of ruthlessness.
If he encroached on Winterfell, the first thing he would do was to scare the Youzhou Outsiders! Cripple or even kill him! Otherwise, they would definitely fall into a situation where they were attacked from both sides like in the future!
Chen Ping fell into deep thought.
Sensing that Chen Ping was engrossed, the others looked at each other and did not dare to speak loudly. Only the crackling sound of the firewood being lit could be heard!
The sound of horse hooves disappeared and then sounded again. Bubbles burst out from the fat on the roasted meat, and a fragrance spread out. At the same time, the soldiers who had gone to investigate the surroundings had returned on horseback.
Chen Ping picked up the roast meat and took a bite. It was a little hot, but the taste was indeed quite good. It was at least many times better than those dry rations that were difficult to swallow!
He looked at the few people led by Li Guang and asked,"
"How is it?"
Li Guang dismounted and quickly said,"
"Milord, we have indeed discovered something! Not far ahead, there seemed to be Xiongnu people chasing after the fleeing slaves! About 30 to 50 people!"
"What do you mean?" Chen Ping raised his eyebrows.”
"These Xiongnu always come to the Han territory to plunder. Some of the Han people are slaves who belong to their personal property after they return…"
Li Guang didn't even need to finish his sentence, Chen Ping already understood!
Recalling what he had just thought, he was instantly furious. He stuffed the piece of roasted meat into his mouth, extinguished the fire, and got on his horse.
"Let's go! We don't have enough people to deal with those tribes, but we can still deal with this matter!”
