Chapter 19 The Altar Deep in the Yin Mountains
Compared to the arduous and uncertain tasks of Xiang Yuyingbu and Xiang Yuyingbu, the tasks of Cao Shen, Wang Li, and Zhang Han are much simpler.
Especially when the news of Maodun's death gradually spread back to the Huns, a large number of Huns seemed to have lost their faith and their combat effectiveness plummeted.
Zhang Han looked at the successfully captured Beijia area with boredom, and said to himself: "If I had known, I would have snatched the mission of surprise attack on Yuezhi Royal Court from Xiang Yu!"
"General, Your Majesty has an order!" The deputy general rushed over at the right time and opened his mouth to report.
"Say!"
"Your Majesty has an order for us to quickly assemble the Great Wall defenders and attack the Xiongnu, striving to end the war on the Xiongnu side within two months!"
Hearing this, Zhang Han was surprised and said: "There are no more defenders on the Great Wall?"
The deputy general said: "Yes, general, there are not many troops left at the Great Wall now. I heard that almost all of them were taken away by old general Wang Jian."
Zhang Han frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "I understand, the old general's goal must be related to Donghu. Give the order, rest for a long time, and immediately march towards the Xiongnu!"
"Get the order!"
Cao Shen and Wang Li also received orders from Ying Zheng.
Wang left his home to learn about his origins, and soon thought of what Zhang Han was thinking. He even skipped a break and set out ahead of Zhang Han.
Although Cao Shen had been trained for three years, his military quality was still extremely limited, and he was the last to capture the target among the three.
After receiving the order, he thought for a while and decided to wait for the arrival of the nearest Great Wall defender before attacking, being extremely cautious.
Before leaving, he also wrote a letter about the differences in Yinshan and presented it to Ying Zheng in the form of a secret letter.
One shot moves the whole body.
As Ying Zheng's strategy gradually became clearer, the 150,000 troops rushing from behind also readjusted their routes, divided into three groups, and headed towards the Xiongnu and the Western Regions.
This is destined to be an extremely long war!
The ministers who were far away in Xianyang never expected that they would eventually be tricked by Ying Zheng.
If Wei Liao, Nei Shiteng and others who were in charge of logistics knew that Ying Zheng had planned to extend the front line to the surrounding area, he would probably vomit blood.
The lengthening of the front means that logistics must bear extremely huge pressure.
Not to mention the timely training of reserve officers who will serve in the captured areas. After the whole process, the hard-working people will be exhausted.
If it were not for practicing martial arts, it is estimated that the officials of Da Qin would have collapsed due to such a huge operation.
Of course, Ying Zheng also knew that war was about fighting for national strength, so he did not limit the time to a short period of time and asked his subordinates to support war with war in order to reduce domestic pressure.
......
At the end of the battle of Jiuyuan County, in the early morning seven days later, the army headed by Wang Jian, Meng Tian and Mengyi finally arrived in Donghu territory after a month.
Wang Jian looked at the unfamiliar and vast land in front of him, and he felt heroic in his heart: "Meng Tian, Meng Yi, the opportunity to expand the territory and become famous in history is now, are you excited?"
Meng Tian gears up: "It goes without saying!"
Meng Yi said lightly: "Such a vast land would be good for horse racing!"
His words made Wang Jian and Wang Jian lose their composure and burst into laughter.
Wang Jian patted Meng Yi hard on the shoulder, laughed and said: "Good boy, I like your temperament, you have a bright future!"
The people of Donghu never expected that just when they were celebrating the death of Mao Dun, they would usher in another conquest by the Qin Iron Army.
......
After Ying Zheng dealt with the aftermath of Jiuyuan County and encouraged the people who suffered from the unprovoked disaster, he embarked on the journey to the Yinshan Mountains alone.
According to Cao Shen's information, after repelling the Xiongnu army in the Yinshan area, when he was about to pursue the victory, he was forced to retreat by a pack of wolves led by a white wolf that was as tall as one foot and six meters long.
After the pack of wolves forced them back, they did not continue to attack. Instead, they drew a line and submerged into the Yin Mountain again, as if they were guarding something!
After seeing this secret letter, Ying Zheng's first reaction was, interesting!
Based on his current understanding of the world of Da Qin, such a huge animal should not appear in this world.
If there is, it is either caused by mutation or there are other reasons.
Combined with the sudden awakening of the consciousness of the rules of this world and the initiative to impose shackles on him, Ying Zheng guessed that there may have been changes in the world that he was not aware of, so he decided to go and have a look.
With his strength, even though Yinshan is far away from the Great Wall, it is only a short distance away.
Two hours later, Ying Zheng arrived at the boundary drawn by Bai Lang.
In front of me, a half-meter-deep claw mark stretches from east to west to a hundred meters away, which can easily distinguish the territory of Qin from the territory of the Xiongnu.
Further ahead, in addition to the endless grassland, there are the endless Yinshan Mountains.
Ying Zheng stepped forward for a moment to check, and extracted a trace of impure spiritual energy from the residual aura of the claw marks.
"The aura is different, containing a violent, dark, and bloody aura. But the weird thing is that it can actually make Gu's consciousness loosen a little bit!"
Ying Zheng muttered to himself.
Since he reached the peak of his cultivation as a Grandmaster, his spiritual consciousness has not shown any signs of improvement for a long time.
The unexpected discovery undoubtedly made him overjoyed.
Worth exploring!
Ying Zheng stretched out his foot and stepped forward. The next moment, he had crossed the boundary drawn by the white wolf.
At the same time, the white wolf who was at a mysterious altar deep in the Yin Mountain seemed to feel something. His eyes like blue gems suddenly opened and he let out a deep roar.
After a moment, a group of Yinshan wolves sprang out from the dark environment. After exchanging a few breaths with the white wolves, they ran in the direction where Ying Zheng came.
In Ying Zheng's perception, he soon discovered the wolves coming from all over the mountains and plains.
According to Wang Ben, the Yinshan wolves are extremely bloodthirsty and often fight among themselves. It is rare for a wolf to appear. Even if there is, it will soon be attacked by other wolves and cannibalized to death.
Internal fighting is no less bloody than human society.
The white wolf can make so many Yinshan wolves so obedient. It is obvious that he has absolute dominance over them to be able to do this.
Ying Zheng's thoughts were racing in his mind, and he didn't care about the wolves that were surrounding him, and gradually walked towards the white wolf at the altar.
When the wolves saw this, they were extremely dissatisfied with his ignoring attitude. When they were about to attack, they saw Ying Zheng glare at them.
This look contains extreme murderous intent and a strong warning.
Suddenly, this group of so-called bloodthirsty Yinshan wolves were shaking violently, wailing loudly, and retreated one after another.
However, they always stayed dozens of meters away from Ying Zheng, not daring to let him out of their sight.
"It's quite powerful!"
Ying Zheng praised Bai Lang and walked calmly into the area where the altar was.
When Bai Lang saw that the wolves did not stop Ying Zheng, his eyes turned red with anger. He stood up suddenly and roared at the wolves several times.
Although the wolves were afraid, they still bravely attacked Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng was so free that he punched out his left and right fists, perfectly displaying his strong physical strength.
For a moment, wherever the altar was, there were corpses of Yinshan wolves hitting the surrounding mountain walls, making bursts of bombardment sounds, making the white wolf even more angry.
In just a few clicks, Ying Zheng was able to defeat this group of Yinshan wolves who overestimated their capabilities.
He looked at Bai Lang in surprise and asked: "Why don't you take action?"
The white wolf looked ferocious, with its canine teeth exposed. Facing Ying Zheng who asked questions, he kept making angry low growls.
After a few breaths, it suddenly made stumbling, unsophisticated speech.
"Mortal, are you looking for death? How dare you disturb the place where the great Sirius spirit sleeps? Get out of here, the Wolf King!"
"Humph, why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf!"
