Chapter 1446
"Greetings, Crown Prince!"
"Greetings, Crown Prince."
Han Xin and the others were extremely happy.
It was simply an unexpected joy.
"No need for formalities, everyone."
"The speed is alright; you have already captured ten cities in half a month."
Ying Ying Zi Ye's first words were of appreciation.
The distance from the first city to the tenth city was not short.
In just half a month, this battle record was already quite good.
"Your Highness is too kind."
Han Xin was somewhat embarrassed.
Because the resistance along the way was very little.
Often, they had just arrived, and the people here had already evacuated.
Occasionally, people in one or two cities resisted, and only then did they fight a few small battles.
"By the way, Your Highness, why do you have time to come over?"
Li Xin also walked over at this time.
"The construction of the new capital has no problems."
"I got a bit tired of staying there for too long, so it's only right to walk around."
Ying Ying Zi Ye had stayed at the foot of Lishan for half a month, so he had rested enough.
And he also wanted to know about the progress of the Maurya Empire.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been tricked over by Wang Li.
"Your Highness, please take a seat."
Han Xin gave up his seat.
Ying Ying Zi Ye didn't stand on ceremony and sat down.
And Wang Li followed behind and stood quietly.
"Are you gathered together because there is something going on?"
After Ying Ying Zi Ye sat down, he asked.
"Your Highness, you came at the right time; we were just discussing some things."
"Originally, we hadn't discussed any results yet."
"Now that you have come, it is just right for you to help make a decision."
Han Xin and the others were just discussing the Maurya Empire.
Now that His Highness had come, it was certainly for His Highness to decide.
"What matter has stumped you? Tell me about it."
Ying Ying Zi Ye was somewhat curious; had they encountered a strong enemy?
"The matter is like this."
Seeing no one speak, Han Xin began to recount the general process of the matter.
Han Xin led the great army to fight from the first city to the tenth city.
No one dared to resist wherever they passed.
Because these were all small cities, the people in the city saw so many soldiers attacking.
Everyone ran away, and the city-guarding soldiers also fled; they didn't dare to fight at all.
Therefore, ten cities were lost in a row.
There were also some cities with more backbone, but unfortunately, there were too few city-guarding soldiers.
They were completely no match for the Qin Ruishi.
The commoners in those cities had also long since fled from here.
Therefore, capturing ten cities in a row didn't hurt a single commoner.
The city-guarding soldiers who dared to resist were also killed.
Originally, they wanted to keep some people.
But no one knew the language of the Maurya Empire.
Seeing that their resistance was so intense, the prisoners who dared to resist were killed.
Han Xin and the others originally intended to continue advancing.
After all, no one coming to stop them was the best time to attack.
If they could capture the Maurya Empire as soon as possible, they could report to His Majesty.
But before they could start attacking the eleventh city.
The scouts scouting for intelligence in front sent back news.
Between the tenth city and the eleventh city was a large grassland.
The soldiers of the Maurya Empire were gathering in a steady stream.
It looked like they were going to gather their forces to have a big battle with them.
The number of enemy troops was also surveyed by the Qin scouts using telescopes.
The number of cavalry in the Maurya Empire was not large, probably only about twenty thousand cavalry.
This bit of cavalry and equipment was completely no match for the Qin cavalry.
One had to know that Han Xin had brought his two thousand cavalry with him.
Just relying on those fine weapons and equipment was enough to win completely.
Whether it was the three-piece horse set, the Ma Dao, or the super divine crossbow.
The Maurya Empire's cavalry didn't have these weapons, so these cavalry were certainly no match.
The Maurya Empire's infantry was only about three hundred thousand.
This number of people was not even more than the Qin Ruishi.
Therefore, there was no need to worry too much.
The only thing that made them wary was the elephant cavalry.
The Maurya Empire had 10,000 war elephants!
This number somewhat exceeded their expectations.
If ten thousand elephants charged over, they might suffer devastating losses.
But fortunately, their total number of people was not large.
It was much less than the number Ying Ying Zi Ye had said before.
As expected of a country ruled by a tyrant.
Otherwise, if the military strength were even stronger, it would be even harder to handle.
The sixth king, King Ashoka, was quite good.
If it weren't for his brutal rule, perhaps the strength of the Maurya Empire would be even stronger.
The military strength of the Maurya Empire was gathered on the large grassland.
There were about three hundred thousand soldiers, about twenty thousand cavalry, and about ten thousand elephant cavalry.
I don't know if anyone will continue to gather later.
Regarding the current number of people in the Maurya Empire, Han Xin and the others were not afraid at all.
Because the weapons of these people were somewhat backward.
They were all ordinary swords and ordinary bows and arrows.
Compared to Great Qin's weapons, they were far behind.
But the elephant cavalry of the Maurya Empire made Han Xin and the others feel somewhat unable to make a move.
Those elephant cavalry were incomparably huge, giving them some pressure.
If groups of elephant cavalry attacked, they would definitely scatter them.
But fortunately, they knew the weakness of elephants, and they had been looking for wild bees recently.
Wanting to try to see if they could find some to deal with these elephants, otherwise it would be hard to handle.
If things went wrong, the Qin soldiers would suffer devastating losses because of this. ===== CHAPTER 1448 =====
