Chapter 1288: Tracking the Xiongnu, the Western Regions countries

Five days passed in a row.

In the border defense camp.

There were not many people left now.

Four hundred thousand troops were escorting the Xiongnu captives back to Great Qin territory.

They would wait for news from Qin Shi Huang on the way.

Wherever Great Qin needed manpower, they would escort this batch of people there.

Now only General Meng Tian Tian was left leading one hundred thousand soldiers to guard the Great Wall gate.

The remaining four hundred thousand troops had already followed Wang Ben to the great grassland to start sweeping.

Striving to exterminate the potential threats on the great grassland in one fell swoop.

As long as it was a Xiongnu tribe, they would strike it down, or perhaps capture them back.

In order to welcome the relocation of Great Qin citizens, they had also exhausted their efforts.

Wanting to create a safe great grassland.

These sweeping actions were indispensable.

In the main camp tent of the border defense.

At this time, there were only three people here.

"Your Highness, Wang Ben sent word that Prince Modu and the others did not return to their old lair."

"The tracking soldiers discovered that Prince Modu and the others were walking westward all the way."

"The soldiers tracked them to the Gobi Desert, where there was golden yellow sand everywhere."

"That is a natural barrier with dangerous terrain, where people are rarely seen, and not even a single animal exists."

"Therefore, they are asking if we should continue tracking; going out further is just sky-filling yellow sand."

"That place is already beyond the scope of the great grassland."

General Meng Tian Tian placed a piece of Xuan paper on the table.

Reporting the news sent back by Wang Ben.

"Already out of the great grassland? What kind of place is that?"

Wang Li looked at General Meng Tian Tian with a blank face.

General Meng Tian Tian also shook his head, indicating he didn't know what kind of place it was.

Ying Ying Zi Ye took out the Xuan paper and drew and wrote on it.

Soon, a sloppy map was drawn.

"Going out from here is the Hexi Corridor."

"The westernmost end of the Hexi Corridor is Dunhuang, and past that is the Yumen Pass." ===== CHAPTER 1290 =====
