Zhang Xuan, the younger generation of the Great Qin generals. However, its influence is no worse than that of the older generation.

Zhang Yun's personality is completely different from Bai Qi. However, his command skills are no less impressive.

Perhaps, because of his age, Ma Shuo found that he and Zhang Jiang were more able to talk together.

"Captain Ma Wei, if it were you, what would those captives do?" Ma Shuo didn't expect Zhang Xuan to suddenly ask himself about the handling of prisoners. Zhang Jiang is not a person who loves to kill, so he obviously does not agree with Bai Qi's handling method before. However, Bai Qi is the coach, and Zhang Jiang naturally will not disobey the coach's will in this kind of matter, after all, it is not about strategic decision-making.

"The general should know that among the men and horses under Ma, there are many barbarians!" Although Ma Shuo didn't say it directly, the meaning of this answer was obvious.

"But if you are not of my race, your heart will be different!" Zhang Xuan said.

"Daqin, it should be inclusive! In the past, the prime minister had the "Book of Exhortations" handed down, and he had the strength of today's Great Qin. "The prime minister mentioned by Ma Shuo here refers to the current prime minister Li of Great Qin. When Qin Wangzheng first succeeded to the throne, someone once wrote a letter suggesting that all guest ministers from other countries should be expelled, on the grounds that the existence of these people wasted too many resources of Great Qin. In this case, this Prime Minister Li Cheng gave a chapter to the King of Qin, listing the benefits brought to Great Qin by the previous kings of the previous dynasties reusing Keqing, and exhorting the King of Qin not to expel him.

Later, Qin Wangzheng adopted Prime Minister Li Cheng's suggestion and canceled the order to expel Keqing.

Now, Ma Shuo uses this example to actually express his own proposition, that is, to assimilate the barbarians through fusion, and to assimilate the so-called barbarians into the Qin people, enriching the connotation of the Qin people.

"Ma Weiwei's words, great goodness!" Zhang Xuan said happily.

"The general praised it!" Ma Shuo said politely.

"Hahaha, Zhang is very fortunate to have met Ma Weiwei! When the matter of Western Xinjiang is over, Zhang Mou must talk with Ma Weiwei about wine. Although Zhang Jiang is not thirsty for killing, he is also a straightforward character, which is the characteristic of a man in the army.

"Good! When the time comes, Ma will invite the general to drink the good wine specially brewed by himself! Ma Shuo said happily. In his heart, compared to the general Bai Qi, Ma Shuo felt more comfortable with this general Zhang Xuan. Perhaps, there is an age factor in this, but it is not just the age factor.

"Okay, it's a deal!" Zhang Xuan didn't care too much about the good wine mentioned by Ma Shuo, but he was still very happy that Ma Shuo agreed to drink with him.

chatting all the way, before you know it, the cavalry arrived at the Hexi Corridor area.

Along the way, it is not that I have not encountered barbarians, but I have encountered small groups of barbarians. Hundreds, or thousands, of barbarians, in front of tens of thousands of cavalry, can't even make waves. Therefore, the appearance of these barbarians was not able to stop the advance of the cavalry at all.

After entering the Hexi Corridor, the information brought back by the scouts showed that barbarian sightings began to appear frequently in the front, and the number began to increase. At the same time, the scouts also brought a lot of information that made everyone angry.

The barbarians have caused great damage to the Hexi Corridor, many villages have been slaughtered and plundered, a large amount of farmland has been destroyed, and a lot of property has been looted. In the past, the Hexi Corridor was a rare piece of fertile soil in Yumen County, although the area was not large, but it could be regarded as the most dynamic place in the entire Yumen County.

It's just that because its geographical location is too close to the lock barbarian pass, and the general who guarded the lock bar pass once had some problems in the defensive strategy, the result directly led to the success of the northern barbarian army knocking on the pass and entering the pass.

For this reason, the general who locked the barbarian pass was so depressed that he vomited blood, and the whole person collapsed at once. Now, it is no longer this general who commands the lock barbarian army, but his two deputies. Similarly, it is also because of this that the record of the entire lock barbarian army is very unsatisfactory.

The tragic scene in the Hexi Corridor angered all the cavalry at once. Although there were many barbarians among Ma Shuo's cavalry, after this period of assimilation, they naturally regarded themselves as Qin people.

Kill –

With anger, tens of thousands of cavalry pushed sideways, and as long as they saw the barbarians, they were all killed mercilessly, leaving not a single living mouth.

Soon, almost every cavalryman's weapon was stained with blood, and the number of barbarians killed reached thirty or forty thousand. With so many barbarians being slaughtered, the arrival of the cavalry finally attracted the attention of the barbarian high-level in the Hexi Corridor area.

At this moment, the tribal leaders in Hexi City finally got the news that a Qin cavalry of seventy or eighty thousand people was frantically slaughtering their subordinates.

Damn, only seventy or eighty thousand cavalry dared to slaughter their own people so unscrupulously, and the leaders of the tribes were immediately furious. There are more than 400,000 barbarians in the Hexi Corridor area, and although 30,000 or 40,000 have been killed by cavalry, there are still about 400,000.

With such a large number of men, these tribal leaders are full of confidence.

Ordered, mobilize a large army, encircle and suppress these Qin provocateurs.

Soon, the army of barbarians moved. Countless barbarians gathered from all directions of the Hexi Corridor in the direction where the Qin cavalry was.

"Report to the general, the barbarian army is about to arrive!" Here, the scouts of the cavalry also reported the news to Zhang Xuan's side.

"All retreat, maintain speed and formation!" This time, Zhang Jiang did not let the cavalry fight the barbarians again, but directly gave the order to retreat. The task of the cavalry was originally to fish, and when the goal was achieved, it was natural to act according to the order.

More than 80,000 cavalry immediately turned their horses' heads and retreated directly with a hula.

However, the speed of the cavalry is not very fast, and it always maintains a certain distance from the opponent, so that the opponent has the feeling that he can catch up if he chases again.

"Chase, accelerate, these Qin people must be left behind!" The leaders of the barbarian tribes who got the news immediately ordered that this kind of provocation by the Qin people would never be tolerated, and that these Qin people must be taught a lesson.

Not only that, but the barbarians also sent their cavalry this time. Among the more than 400,000 barbarians, the cavalry assembled also reached as many as 70,000 or 80,000. Although most of them were just barbarians who could ride horses, their purpose was to be able to catch up with the Qin people and stop the footsteps of the Qin cavalry.

Therefore, all the barbarians who could ride horses played the role of cavalry, leading the other barbarians to chase towards the Qin cavalry.

"General, the barbarian cavalry has caught up!" The scout immediately reported the news to Zhang Xuan.

"Captain Ma, take your men and horses and teach those barbarians a lesson. I found that your riding skills are very good and stable! I'll have to ask you for advice! Zhang Xuan had already noticed the difference of the cavalry under Ma Shuo's command, and he found that compared to the cavalry under his command, Ma Shuo's cavalry seemed to be more relaxed on the horse, and there was no need to deliberately tighten the reins with both hands, and people could still sit upright on horseback.

Because he didn't have time to observe it up close, Zhang Jiang hadn't discovered the secret of the saddle and stirrups. However, his curiosity has been piqued. So, this time he gave the task to Ma Shuo.
