Chapter 1572

Even the merchant caravans heading to the Peacock Dynasty were touched by this good fortune.

Originally, Ying Ying Zi Ye had wanted to let the merchant caravans going to the Peacock Dynasty walk there.

But since the merchant caravans for the Western Regions were all teleporting, it would not hurt to include the Peacock Dynasty.

It was better to just teleport them all together.

Sometimes it was necessary to treat everyone equally.

In any case, it did not take much effort; it was just a matter of convenience.

"Your Highness, everything is prepared."

"We are just waiting for Your Highness to open the portal."

Han Xin brought Shanu up and bowed respectfully.

"Do you have confidence?"

"It is still not too late to change people now."

"Otherwise, once you reach the Western Regions, no one will be there to support you."

Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at Shanu; this brat was even younger than him.

However, he quite appreciated this brat Shanu.

He was ruthless towards the Xiongnu and decisive in handling matters.

If he were sent to lead men to the Western Regions to deal with Modu, the chances of winning would likely be high.

Not to mention anything else, the hatred between them was stronger than anyone else's.

Ying Ying Zi Ye knew a little about Shanu's past.

This was a young man with a strong heart.

Leaving this matter to him should not disappoint him.

"Your Highness, please rest assured!"

"This time, Shanu will definitely take Modu's head!"

"If I do not kill him, I will present my own head!"

Shanu knelt on one knee and directly issued a military order.

"You brat, you are truly being reckless!"

"Why... must you do this?"

Han Xin looked at Shanu with a complex expression.

This brat was truly risking his life, even daring to issue a military order.

The Prince had not even asked him to kill Modu!

He was only asked to protect the merchant caravans.

If the situation allowed, he could sweep up the remaining Xiongnu.

"Brother Han... General Han, my mind is made up!"

"Please, General Han, grant this; please, Your Highness, grant this!"

Shanu seemed to recall some unhappy memories.

His eyes were also slightly bloodshot.

"Are you sure you can kill Modu in this irritable state?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye frowned slightly; this brat was becoming somewhat irritable.

Hearing this, Shanu took a few deep breaths.

He calmed the irritable emotions in his heart.

He gradually stabilized.

"I can!"

"I just recalled some past events."

"I ask Your Highness not to blame me."

"Shanu will definitely complete the mission!"

Shanu's tone was firm, and he had returned to calm.

It could be seen that his state of mind was still quite good.

Ying Ying Zi Ye thought for a while before speaking:

"Your main task is to protect those merchant caravans and the goods well."

"As for whether or not to kill Modu, that depends on the situation."

"Do not let Great Qin lose merchants because of your own personal desires."

"As long as the merchant caravans are safe, you can play however you want; I hope you can distinguish this."

Ying Ying Zi Ye's tone was also somewhat stern.

He sent so many soldiers to the Western Regions with the primary goal of trade.

But if they encountered Modu, kill him if possible.

If he cannot be killed, drive him away.

But the premise for all of this must be to ensure the lives of the merchants.

Do not act recklessly because of Shanu's personal desires.

If it truly came to that point.

Then Shanu would not need to return; let him guard the Western Regions forever.

"Your Highness, please rest assured, Shanu will definitely be careful."

"As long as Shanu is here, I will definitely protect them well!"

Shanu also promised earnestly; he knew the purpose of this trip.

Solving Modu was just a secondary task.

Protecting the merchant caravans was the primary task.

That was why he was given two hundred thousand soldiers.

Otherwise, he would not have been given so many people.

There were still tens of thousands of soldiers guarding Yumen Pass.

He also had the authority to mobilize the soldiers at Yumen Pass.

If there were any special circumstances, he could also ask the soldiers guarding Yumen Pass for help.

"Get up."

"You brat, you had best be more careful."

"Do not let hatred blind your eyes."

"This time is considered a Western Expedition and the opening of the Silk Road."

"Originally, I did not want to let you go."

"But Han Xin recommended you and vouched for you at the same time."

"If you act recklessly, Han Xin will not need to sit in this position anymore."

Ying Ying Zi Ye did not forget to speak to intimidate Shanu.

He was afraid this brat would act recklessly once he reached the Western Regions.

Since it had already been decided to go to the Western Regions.

Then the merchants must be protected well.

Otherwise, these merchants going to the Western Regions together would just be throwing their lives away for nothing.

Hearing this, Shanu looked at Han Xin with complex eyes.

He did not expect Han Xin to have sacrificed so much for him.

"Rest assured, Your Highness!"

"Shanu will definitely prioritize the overall situation!"

Shanu stood up only after saying this.

"Go and prepare."

"We set off after one stick of incense."

Ying Ying Zi Ye walked down from the imperial carriage.
