Chapter 435

Xiao He is stunned on the side, completely unable to understand what this means.

"Let me explain it."

Meng Tian gathers his thoughts.

"Once, when I led troops to attack the Xiongnu, I encountered this kind of horse on the battlefield."

"This kind of horse can travel a thousand li a day; it is the king among horses."

"It was also through much investigation that I learned some basic information about this horse."

"When this kind of horse runs, it sweats from its neck, but that sweat is as bright red as blood."

"Therefore, it has a very pleasant name: Heavenly Horse!"

"This kind of horse is extremely rare; it is no exaggeration to say it is one in ten thousand!"

Meng Tian recalls some sad past events.

His voice lowers involuntarily.

Xiao He nods; so this is the Heavenly Horse.

Traveling a thousand li a day—it truly is the king among horses, the Heavenly Horse!

"Then this horse must be very suitable as a mount for Your Highness."

"In a moment, no matter what, we must snatch this horse."

"We must absolutely not injure such a fine horse!"

Seeing such a good horse, Xiao He thinks of Ying Ying Zi Ye immediately.

If the Prince rides that Heavenly Horse and wields the Black Gold Ancient Blade, it would be a perfect match.

"Pass the order down: try not to injure that Heavenly Horse later."

Ying Ying Zi Ye's eyes are burning.

Such a good horse must certainly not be missed.

The Xiongnu are not worthy of riding such a good horse.

"Yes!"

Xiao He turns to convey the order.

Ying Ying Zi Ye watches as all the Xiongnu enter the trap.

His calm heart also ripples slightly.

The great battle is about to begin; it is just a matter of how to capture them with the minimum cost.

"When will Han Xin and the others arrive?"

"Your Highness, they are on the way and will arrive here before long."

Meng Tian puts down the immortal-artifact telescope in his hand.

"You go and command."

"I will wait here for Han Xin and the others to arrive before going to join you."

Ying Ying Zi Ye thinks for a moment and still feels it is better for Meng Tian to go and command.

He must not make a mistake and let the Xiongnu escape.

Meng Tian shakes his head and says with incomparable confidence: "Your Highness, please rest assured."

"Even without my presence, surrounding these thirty thousand Xiongnu cavalry is an easy task."

"The border-guard army has experienced many wars, and there are many deputy generals; one more or less Meng Tian makes no difference."

How could he leave at this time? He still has to protect the Prince.

Regardless of whether the Prince possesses peerless divine strength, this is a battlefield, not a place for single combat.

This is a large-scale multi-person combat scene; even if individual strength is powerful, it is useless.

Once surrounded by hundreds of people, even a wheel-war tactic could exhaust a person to death.

This is also the reason why he dares not leave Ying Ying Zi Ye's side by even half a step.

Qin Shi Huang has given a death order.

If the Crown Prince were to have an accident here with him.

It might even cause his Brother Zheng's family to suffer.

Although he hates the Xiongnu, this risk is too great; he dares not try it lightly.

Seeing Meng Tian insist on not leaving, Ying Ying Zi Ye can only give up.

In any case, Meng Tian has already said so.

Even without his command, they can surround the Xiongnu.

Then there is no need to run back and forth so troublesomely.

Besides, the Qin Ruishi are several times more numerous than the Xiongnu.

If they could still let them escape under these circumstances.

Then this Qin Ruishi border-guard army would be living up to a false reputation.
