Chapter 200 Chapter 12: The Tranquility Before the Great War

It is conceivable that when the harvest of this first outbound plunder was brought back to Daqin and transmitted to Xianyang, it would cause such a huge sensation among the large and small nobles in the entire Guanzhong.

These harvests can make the wealth used by the nobles of the Fan family, the Su family, the Fang family, and others who have obtained the first qualification to go out to plunder skyrocket in an instant. Wealth and power, these two things are the things that most people who have stood at a certain height diligently pursue.

Power, no one dares and cannot snatch it from Hu Hai! Then for those families and nobles in Guanzhong, what they can pursue can only be wealth!

And it's a monstrous wealth with no profits.

There's no one who doesn't go crazy about it!

Hu Hai will not know, because he opened this opening, because his butterfly wings, which are still small at the moment and will inevitably be huge wings in the future, took the lead in opening the prelude to the slave trade in the far east, in the ancient land of China.

In the next two thousand years, the Qin people, from following the instructions of Huhai's horsewhip, all the way to the north, all the way to the south, all the way to the west, to the initiative to cross the ocean and sea, using bloody means to sell the entire world as long as they are not the same skin color as the Qin people, brought countless wealth to the Great Qin. Although these riches are all blood-colored, not golden.

The rise of the slave trade will inevitably lead to military reform. Military changes will inevitably bring about conquest and occupation one after another.

And all this, Hu Hai, who is now in Xianyang Palace, is afraid that he will not think of it.

Of course, maybe this is exactly what Hu Hai wants to achieve?

Hearing Jing Yun's words, Long Eighteen was silent!

He knew that what Jing Yun said was the truth, not to mention that the five of them were only ordered to follow Jing Yun west, and they had no power to meddle in the control of the action. The only power they have is to kill Jing Yun when Jing Yun slaughters the Qin people!

Except for this power, they are actually subject to Jing Yun's control in other situations.

This point, as early as when they left Xianyang, as the commander of the Longwei Mansion, Ying Yi had already specially told them. And it will certainly not be the only five of them who advise.

You must know that in order to cooperate with the implementation of this plunder plan, the Dragon Guard Mansion has transferred a large number of Dragon Guards.

Marching to fight, especially if Jing Yun still goes abroad to do something that can't be exposed yet, it is even more necessary to unify military orders, and not let a rabble that is not a regular army have two people who call the shots.

As for the first time to go out to plunder, Hu Hai also attached great importance to it, and even did not hesitate to give the five monoculars that Shangfang Tianren had worked hard to polish to a dragon eighteen, so that they could observe the enemy situation outside the fortress.

After all, leaving the country means that they are walking on the edge of a tightrope, and any small mistake will lead to the annihilation of the entire army. And they're a lone army that won't have any reinforcements at all.

The barbarians outside the Saiwai, but most of them were cavalry, although in their territory they may be less vigilant, after all, in the history of the previous hundreds of years, there has never been a precedent for the Qin people to take the initiative to go deep into the wild land outside the Saiwai to hunt.

At that time, many vassal states in the land of Shenzhou were busy with civil wars. Busy merging vertically and horizontally, busy destroying one opponent after another.

But the vigilance surname is not high, it doesn't mean that you can't find it when you go to the door of people's homes to observe! Then it's not a matter of being wary of not having a high surname, but a matter of being completely stupid.

Of course, if that happens, it can only be said that the heavens are going to make it die. I can't complain about Daqin.

Can't interfere and have to accept Jing Yun's moderation, this is a sentence that Long Eighteen and Five people deeply imprinted in their minds when they left. You must know that even if they are people from the Dragon Guard Mansion, they don't know if there are any people in the Dragon Guard Mansion hidden in the shadows among the thousands of black-armored knights.

This question, Long Eighteen also knew that Jing Yun was also thinking about this problem.

Because of how many people there are in the Dragon Guard Mansion now, and those Dragon Guards, I am afraid that except for Win One and the commanders of each lieutenant, no one in the entire Great Qin can clearly control the composition and personnel of the Dragon Guard Mansion.

Of course, Hu Hai is an exception, as the key to build the Dragon Guard Mansion and the Black Ice Terrace, everyone's list including strengths and weaknesses, and code names are all recorded in Hu Hai. But Hu Hai doesn't know if he has read the list.

"Then the general, please give the order!" It was all said and said, and Long Eighteen naturally knew that it was time for him to listen to orders. Most of the time, Long Eighteen's opinion, Jing Yun would carefully consider it.

After all, Long Eighteen represents the Longwei Mansion, and behind the Longwei Mansion stands the most honorable person in Great Qin today, His Majesty the Second Emperor. If it was just Long Eighteen, he wouldn't have the right to speak at all.

Now this lone army that has penetrated deep into the territory of the Qiang people has indeed reached the point of exhaustion as Jing Yun said.

In order not to alarm the Qiang tribe living in this strange land, Jing Yun and they basically did not eat hot rice since they left Longxi County. Every day is wrapped in raw and cold dried meat and steamed buns with water.

The only time you can fight the tooth sacrifice is when you break through the Qiang tribe. At that time, all the soldiers who left the country, let's call them soldiers for the time being, would drink hot water and eat fresh barbecue.

Only this time it's been seven days since their last supplement.

And three days ago, the north that swept the entire Qiang territory began to roar. The western part of Daqin has taken the lead in passing the short summer, and one foot has already stepped into the winter.

The howling wind, wrapped in wind and sand, ravaged the land, bringing great inconvenience to Jing Yun's movements.

Coupled with the more than ten Qiang tribes they had looted before, now within the hundreds of miles of the border between the Qiang territory and Longxi County of Great Qin, there is already news of a murderous ghost horse bandit haunting.

Many Qiang tribes began to migrate farther west, or several weaker tribes merged together to guard against the danger of not knowing when, which brought great obstacles to Jing Yun's actions.

The biggest threat is still the Qiang cavalry of several large tribes with a radius of hundreds of miles who have joined forces to search for their "horse bandits". It was a force of 20,000 Qiang cavalry.

As long as they encounter this Qiang cavalry, then they can already declare the destruction of their five thousand people! In such a harsh environment, the combat power that the Qiang people can exert far exceeds that of the Qin people!

Not to mention that they are not yet a regular army!

After all, their strength is only that, 5,000 men!

Five thousand people, plus previous casualties, although their casualties were already small. Because most of the time they choose to attack suddenly in the middle of the night when people are sleeping, plus there are dragon guards, the Qiang people who are cruising and sentry will always be cleaned up silently, so they will succeed repeatedly.

If it was a frontal attack, just like the situation they encountered now, a tribe of 10,000 people would not be something they could take. Unless they hold the idea of losing both sides and attack recklessly.

Three thousand, attacking a medium tribe, something they had never done before. But in today's situation, they have to take risks.

Eating raw and cold food for a long time, many soldiers have problems with their stomachs, and if there is no hot water and fresh food supply, I am afraid that there is no need to plunder. The problem of diarrhea and nutritional deficiencies alone can crush their lonely army.

Of course, Jing Yun and they certainly don't know the term nutritional deficiency.

"Let's wait until the night raid into that tribe! All those who resist are killed, and not one is left! Jing Yun's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said with a murderous aura, and said to Long Eighteen: "As for the possible scouts, we still need a few Brother Long!" ”

"Don't dare! General Jing just gave his orders! "Long Eighteen answered the order!

The military order has been given, and the black-armored knights gathered in the col know what to do! One by one, they were suddenly excited. They all found a comfortable and sheltered place to snuggle up and sleep together, and when they had enough spirits, they could kill people at night.

Of course, in fact, the most important thing is that if you rob the tribe, there will naturally be women!

Women, although not indispensable, are the best way to relieve their pressure for these first Qin people who are always in danger and have their heads hanging on their belts to go out of the country to plunder.

No one thought or wanted to think about what would happen if they died!

From the day they joined this lone army, they already had the consciousness of burying their bones in a foreign land! What's more, they are still Qin people, martial Qin people. They all knew that if there was a dragon guard in the place, there would be the emperor's attention.

His Majesty the Emperor is watching them, they will not die in obscurity on this desert outside the Cypriot Fortress!

That's enough!

The dusk sun gradually moved westward, and finally it was completely blown away by the wind and sand!

Endless darkness began to envelop the land. Under the raging wind, it is impossible to see the moon as round and bright as Guanzhong. The only thing that could be seen was darkness, and the only thing that could be heard was the howling of a wind that was tighter than the other.

In the desert at night, the temperature drops dramatically, not to mention the time when the wind is raging.

Fortunately, the Qin people who have been outside the fortress for more than 20 days have become old birds, and they know how to protect themselves! One by one, the black-armored knights had already put the sheepskin on their shoulders before it was dark, and they also wore thick sheepskin gloves on their hands, and wore breeches sewn from pure sheepskin on their legs.

Time is ticking!

The howling of the wind became more and more intense, and from time to time a large canopy of sand was carried into the col by the strong wind.

In the col, it was dark, and there was not a single fire.

In the darkness, all that could be seen were a pair of eyes that shimmered with a ghostly essence, and everyone was waiting for the moment of assembly. This is the last tranquility before the Great War, and it is also the last tranquility before the Great War!

The majestic battle intent began to slowly converge and condense in the sky above the mountain col!
