Chapter 85 Extinction of the Clan, the First Battle Completed
The next day,
In the training ground outside the city of Beidi County, Ying Ziqing, dressed in golden armor and a black robe, and wearing a scarlet mask, stood calmly on the high platform that had been erected.
His dark gold armor gleamed in the sunlight, and the Dragon Sky Sword at his waist resembled a giant dragon lurking in the abyss. His jet-black eyes swept over the army below with majesty.
Looking around the training ground, all the troops waiting there were cavalry.
In the center are 30,000 Xuanjia black-robed cavalrymen, wielding long spears.
On the left are ten thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry who had previously wiped out the Xiongnu vanguard.
On the right are ten thousand men in silver armor and white robes, carrying bows and crossbows, known as the White Horse Cavalry, whose reputation is that thousands of troops would avoid those in white robes.
All the combat power he used as his trump card has been revealed today.
At the very front of these 50,000 iron cavalry was a small square formation.
It was Ying Ziqing's most elite knight legion, composed of three thousand heavily armored Ironclad Cavalry and two thousand elite members of the Bad People.
It can be said that all of Ying Ziqing's elite troops have been assembled here.
The Xiongnu had no idea what kind of opponent they were about to face...
On the high platform,
Meng Tian, clad in silver armor and a red robe, strode confidently before Ying Ziqing, kneeling on one knee and saying:
"General, the army has been assembled, and General Li has also made arrangements for the garrison in Beidi County."
Ying Ziqing nodded, his gaze passing over the army and the training ground, looking towards the boundless grassland in the distance, his eyes gleaming with an inexplicable light.
He had lingered in the north long enough; it was time to finish the job in one fell swoop. Moreover, he wanted more than just to defeat this Xiongnu coalition.
What he wants is the Xiongnu, to be wiped out and their race exterminated!
Historically, the invasions of barbarians, the An Lushan Rebellion, the Five Barbarian Invasions, and the Manchu rebellion were all caused by these barbarians. They were not of our race, and their hearts were bound to be different.
Chopping the grass does not remove the roots, but the spring breeze blows and regenerates.
In order to prevent the people of Yan and Huang from suffering persecution from barbarians in the future, Ying Ziqing had already decided to exterminate the Xiongnu.
Let these despicable beasts disappear from the history of China!
He raised the still-sheathed Dragon Sky Sword in his hand and said loudly:
"Gentlemen, today we shall follow me to carve out a bright and just world!"
——Dividing——Line——
During this campaign against the Xiongnu, he did not ride his own mount, the Xie Zhi, but instead rode a brown Akhal-Teke horse.
As the only creature to have visited the gathering place of the Xiongnu allied forces, the Xie Zhi led the way for the entire army.
On the other side, the wolf clan's great shaman, who had already suffered a loss at Ying Ziqing's hands, had become extremely cautious.
After all, the enemy's commander was someone who could pose a threat to the Wolf God.
Therefore, she was almost constantly manipulating the crystal head to explore the grassland.
As a shaman blessed by the wolf god, she can channel her inner energy into the crystal skull to gain a view of the grasslands.
As she was exploring the grasslands within a hundred miles of the camp as usual, she suddenly discovered that this well-equipped and well-trained army was advancing towards the main camp.
A glint flashed in the High Shaman's eerie purple eyes. Another sneak attack on the camp? Heh, perhaps if she hadn't detected it, these 50,000 cavalry could have inflicted considerable losses on the Xiongnu headquarters.
But it was too late. She had already discovered that by the time they arrived, they would be facing the rampage and slaughter of 400,000 savage wolf soldiers.
Her gaze sharpened as she stared at the masked man in the foremost armor and black robe.
Just as she was spying on Ying Ziqing, he suddenly raised his head and looked up at the sky, meeting the Great Shaman's purple eyes across the distance.
Seeing the abyss in the man's eyes that seemed to devour her spirit and soul, the high shaman hurriedly severed her connection with the crystal head.
Beneath the mask, a flush of tension and fear was visible on her face.
"This...this is the Qin army commander who can pose a threat to Lord Wolf God? He's truly terrifying. No, we can't let him become a variable in this war..."
The high shaman scratched a wound on his wrist with his fingernail, dipped the spilled blood in it, and began to smear it on the ground, as if drawing a mysterious symbol...
Ying Ziqing, seated on his warhorse, withdrew his gaze, chuckled softly, and murmured:
"Looks like we've been exposed. That's interesting. But I wasn't planning a sneak attack anyway; those guys over there are all hiding their true intentions."
Ying Ziqing was not worried about the Xiongnu discovering the whereabouts of his army, because in the face of absolute power, all plans are futile.
In Touman Chanyu's tent, several symbols suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of him as he was drinking.
Those were their unique emergency communication symbols, which only the Wolf God priests could master.
Looking at the message being delivered, Touman fell into deep thought.
"Are the Qin people crazy? They actually dare to dream of leading 50,000 cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the Chanyu's 400,000-strong army. However, these 50,000 cavalry should be all the elite forces in Qin's northern territory."
"If we can annihilate their entire army here, the northern lands of Qin will be within our grasp."
Immediately, he summoned the Left and Right Wise Kings. They decided to turn the tables on him, leaving 50,000 soldiers in the main camp as bait, while the Left and Right Wise Kings each led 100,000 cavalry to ambush on their left and right sides.
He personally led an army of 150,000 to engage the Qin cavalry in a direct battle once they entered the camp. He intended to bury them here forever, to make them nourish the grasslands.
The setting sun was bleak.
It was dusk, and the gradually reddening sun slowly sank towards the western grassland, replaced by a dark purple hue.
The lush green grass swayed in the breeze when suddenly a horse's hoof pressed the grass into the soil, causing the earth to tremble slightly.
The dim setting sun cast its rays upon their gleaming armor and weapons, revealing an endless aura of menace.
Ying Ziqing looked at the rows of tents with bonfires already burning ten miles ahead.
His gaze was calm and unwavering. There might be a trap ahead, waiting for the cavalry to plunge right in, but so what?
If there is an ambush, simply defeat it head-on.
Ying Ziqing didn't offer any words of encouragement to the silent cavalry behind him. Instead, he drew his Dragon Sky Sword from his waist.
His imposing aura spread out, his sword pointed forward, and he charged forward on his tall and mighty Xie Zhi.
Closely following behind was Meng Tian, wielding a long spear, and five thousand elite troops: the Dragon Cavalry, the White Horse Cavalry, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry...
Sometimes, no amount of words can be as inspiring as a leader taking the lead.
For a knight, as long as he lives, he will charge forward until he dies!
In the opposite camp, 50,000 Xiongnu cavalrymen roared and brandished their scimitars as they charged towards the enemy. Little did they know that only death awaited them...
P.S.: I'm currently working on a new book, so updates will be irregular. I'll let you guys know once updates become more consistent. You can keep it running for now.
