In fact, Ying Jing still liked Li Xin because it was quite simple to get along with such a straightforward person. Some things didn't need to be so complicated. You could see his emotions. You didn't need to guess anything, and you didn't need to be afraid.
Because if this person really had something to do with you, he would face you directly and would not play any tricks behind your back.
Standing on the city gate tower and looking at Li Xin's army that was getting closer and closer to Wannian City, Ying Jing's eyes lit up.
Mu Guiying looked at Ying Jing and asked,"Your Highness, what should we do now?”
Ying Jing thought for a moment and said," Let's see what they think of our Ten Thousand Year City first. It's not convenient for me to come forward for this matter. You have full authority."”
Mu Guiying nodded." Yes."

But now, Li Xin brought his army here, but his heart was very confused.
Originally, after Brother Zheng gave him the order to attack the Xiongnu, he immediately went straight to the northwest and led the army north.
His Majesty had told him that there had been news that the Xiongnu people were restless and had gathered a large army. They definitely had some plans and could invade Great Qin's borders at any time.
Therefore, Brother Zheng's request to Li Xin was to attack and completely destroy these Xiongnu people.
Therefore, when Li Xin arrived in the northwest, he immediately asked Meng Tian to transfer 100,000 troops to him. He went north to the grasslands and prepared to teach those Xiongnu people who wanted to go south a lesson. He wanted to sweep away the Xiongnu and establish his merits.
But along the way, they had indeed encountered many Xiongnu people.
Li Xin didn't hesitate and led his 100,000 strong army to attack the Xiongnu people.
Even if the Xiongnu had tens of thousands of cavalry, in Li Xin's eyes, this was nothing.
However, not long after, the scouts of the front army came back and told him that there was a huge city where the Xiongnu people were.
Moreover, it seemed that the owner of that city was not a Xiongnu, but a Qin.
At that time, Li Xin's first reaction was disbelief.
How could there be Qin people building a city in the hinterland of the Xiongnu grasslands?
Moreover, why would the Xiongnu tribes allow the Qin people to build a city here?
However, Li Xin also had reason to believe that these scouts were lying to him. In order to see what the truth was, Li Xin directly led the 100,000 troops to the Ten Thousand Year City.
When Li Xin brought 100,000 troops to Wannian City and heard the news that the Xiongnu had escaped, Li Xin didn't care at all. He had already guessed it.
However, when he saw the towering Ten Thousand Year City that looked down on the entire grassland desert, Li Xin was really shocked.
Not only Li Xin, even Meng Tian, who had come with Li Xin, was shocked. Meng Tian was so shocked that she almost fell off her horse.
"When was this city built? Why? Why haven't we heard anything from him?”
Li Xin's eyes were also wide open as he stared at Meng Tian with his mouth agape.
"Don't ask me, how would I know? Men, bring me the map.”Meng Tian was really stunned. She immediately asked her soldiers to bring a map and then looked at it carefully.
After half a day, Meng Tian said in disbelief,""Old Li, I'm afraid this city was built less than half a year ago.”
"In fact, half a year ago, our soldiers who were guarding the border had investigated the distribution of the various tribes on the grasslands. At that time, this place was still an empty land.”
"Are you sure? Can you guarantee it?" Li Xin squinted his eyes and asked.
"Aiya, why would I lie to you? It's true because the Tribes around the grasslands are quite mobile, and they often migrate. In order to understand the situation of these Tribes, we'll investigate them every six months to confirm Great Qin's understanding of the Xiongnu.”
"Half a year ago, I can guarantee that there was no such city here.”
"Hiss!" Li Xin couldn't help but take a cold breath, and he was even more shocked. Because from the height of the city wall and the scale, this must be a super big project. Moreover, the thickness and height of the city wall were even higher than Xianyang City.
Even though this City wasn't very big, the scale of the construction was quite large. Even Great Qin wouldn't be able to complete it in a short period of time.
It had only been half a year, and they had already built such a huge city. What kind of terrifying speed was this?
Moreover, the most terrifying thing was that they were still on the prairie.
With the surrounding Xiongnu tribes eyeing them covetously, it was truly terrifying to build a city of this scale in just half a year.
At this moment, Meng Tian reminded him," Old Li, look outside the city.”
Li Xin followed Meng Tian's gaze and looked over. He saw the south gate of the city. The endless fertile land had already been reclaimed.
Moreover, there were lush new green plants growing on the ground. It could be said that these fertile fields had been planted with crops.
"Good farmland, crops."
"Could this really be a city built by our Qin people?”Li Xin asked in disbelief.
Meng Tian was also extremely shocked. She thought for a moment and said,""Old Li, I think we have to ask the people in this city first to see if they are enemies or friends.”
Li Xin nodded and waved his hand," Let's go."”
The flag fluttered as the 100,000 elite soldiers of Great Qin slowly advanced towards Wannian City with a solemn expression.
When they arrived at Wannian City, the outline of Wannian City slowly appeared in front of them.
On the city tower of Wannian City stood a dense number of guards.
There were at least 50,000 of them, and over 10,000 bows and arrows. All of them were facing the Qin army below the city walls in a well-prepared manner.
Seeing this, Li Xin frowned. Aren't the people in this city a bit unfriendly?
At this moment, the city gate of Wannian City was slowly opened. Then, more than a thousand cavalrymen rushed out like a flood.
Li Xin was a bit strange. He didn't expect that the commander of this city was actually such a young woman.
Then, he looked at the black cavalry behind the young woman.
After seeing the equipment of the black cavalrymen, Li Xin asked in surprise,""What are you guys doing?"
In short, Li Xin felt that the equipment of these cavalrymen was different from the equipment of the Qin army.
