"Reporting to Young Master, originally, there were indeed several hundred raiders wreaking havoc in the Qiushan.”
Ying Qiye narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
"Hundreds? There are at least thousands of guards in your county, right?”
The county magistrate knelt on the ground in fear.
"Prince, you don't know."
"That group of raiders were originally soldiers of the Chu army. They were all well-trained and knew some battle formations.”
"I didn't know the enemy's situation in the first two attacks and only brought a few hundred soldiers.”
Ying Qiye snorted coldly.
"So it's the remnants of the Six Nations."
Zhang Han was filled with killing intent.
"Your Highness, these traitors are not willing to submit to Great Qin and even dare to plot against us.”
"It's really not worth dying for."
Ying Qiye smiled.
"Just nice, since this Young Master has encountered them, I will send them on their way.”
The county magistrate was shocked.
The Seventh Young Master said that he planned to go and exterminate the bandits personally.
He had a deep understanding of the ferocity of these rebels. Last time, he almost couldn't come back.
If they were to hurt the Seventh Young Master, even if he grew a few more heads, it would not be enough to chop them off.
So she cried.
"Your Highness, you can't, you can't!"
"Those traitors!"
The county magistrate tried his best to explain how ferocious the bandits were.
Ying Qiye acted as if he hadn't heard anything.
Zhang Han said.
"Your Highness, it's getting late. Why don't you stay for the night and go tomorrow?”
Zhang Han wasn't too worried, it was just a few hundred raiders.
So what if they were well-trained soldiers? In front of Great Qin's soldiers, they were nothing more than chickens and dogs.
Not to mention the young master's strange summoning ability.
However, he had been camping in the wild for the past few days.
He thought that His Highness should have a good rest.
Ying Qiye nodded. He wasn't in a hurry.
Just like that, Ying Qiye and Zhang Han were welcomed into the city by the county magistrate.
The next day.
Ying Qiye saw the county magistrate waiting for him at the door.
"Your Highness, did you rest well last night?”
However, Ying Qiye ignored him.
"Lead the way. I will personally go and exterminate the bandits.”
The county magistrate's expression changed. He had already treated them well.
Now, he had to go out and compete with those bandits.
If he was injured by bandits in the territory under his jurisdiction.
The higher-ups would definitely punish him and investigate.
He would die ten thousand times over just by indulging the bandits.
"Young Master, you can't."
"Those bandits really aren't something ordinary bandits can compare to.”
"Leave such a small matter to me.”
"Young Master, you can just wait in the city for news.”
Ying Qiye smiled coldly.
Exterminate?
The entire Pei County's garrison was only a local county soldier, and their combat strength was limited. If they were to really fight against the Chu Country's army, they might not even be able to kill them.
Ying Qiye wasn't in the mood to explain this to him.
Zhang Han appeared out of nowhere and slashed out with his sword, causing a deep ravine to appear on the ground.
Zhang Han's tone was cold and murderous.
"Young Master asked you to lead the way, are you deaf?”
The county magistrate was so frightened that he repeatedly agreed.
Following that, he brought Ying Qiye along with him as he set off for the Qiushan Mountains to wipe out the bandits.
Halfway.
Zhang Han hesitated for a moment, but he still stepped forward and asked.
"Young Master, when will the altar be built?”
Ying Qiye laughed and asked.
"This Young Master has already broken through, so I don't need that thing anymore.”
Zhang Han couldn't believe it.
Previously, Ying Qiye was already at the Great Circle of Celestial Phenomenon. If he broke through again, wouldn't he be at the legendary Heaven Tier?
"Young Master, you…"
Zhang Han's lips trembled, and he couldn't even speak properly.
The Celestial Realm had already left the realm of mortals.
To put it bluntly, Celestial Phenomenon Grandmasters were nothing in front of Celestial Being Realm.
At this moment, a scout hurriedly ran over, knelt on one knee, and cupped his fists.
"Young Master, we found a bandit stronghold ahead, but…"
The scout didn't know what to say.
"Speak!"
Ying Qiye berated coldly.
"However, there are at least six to seven thousand bandits in the stronghold.”
Before Ying Qiye could say anything, the Magistrate was already scared out of his wits when he heard the scout's words.
He stammered.
"Your Highness, this…"
"These thousands of people are impossible."
Zhang Han said.
"Did you see wrongly? How can there be six to seven thousand people?"
A few thousand Mountain Bandits, this could no longer be called Mountain Bandits.
This was simply a huge force with a threat. How could this small Pei County have so many Mountain Bandits?
The county magistrate next to him was about to cry.
Six to seven thousand people!
With so many raiders gathered, it was no longer an ordinary robbery.
It was very likely that they were plotting a rebellion.
If there were only a few hundred people, the most he would do was demote or be fined a little.
But this was six to seven thousand people.
Once this news spread, not to mention his official position, it was the Emperor's grace that he could not be beheaded.
The county magistrate's face was pale, and cold sweat flowed down his face.
"Your Highness, this…That's impossible."
"There were only a few hundred of them before.”
Ying Qiye snorted coldly.
"You fool, you still think that there are only a few hundred people.”
"Do you want Pei County to be conquered and the people to rebel before you wake up?”
The reason why Ying Qiye was willing to talk nonsense with him was partly because he was a good official.
He was a smooth person, but he treated the people well.
If there were no bandits, this small county would have lived a stable and prosperous life under his rule.
However, it was obvious that this guy did not know how to fight.
He was played by others and suffered two consecutive defeats.
He didn't even know how many people there were.
The county magistrate's face was ashen. He was dead for sure this time.
Six to seven thousand people. He had allowed the bandits to grow until now. He might even be charged with being an accomplice.
"If this matter is done well, this young master can let bygones be bygones and no one will come to punish you.”
Ying Qiye's words made the county magistrate's eyes light up.
That's right, exterminating bandits. As long as he exterminated these bandits, he could atone for his sins.
