Chapter 564: Returning in triumph, fruitful harvest

The Qiu Tribe.

The Great Qin cavalry achieved a complete victory!

The cattle, sheep, and horses obtained were numerous, all packed up and transported back to Great Qin.

The twenty thousand Great Qin cavalry began their return journey in a grand manner.

The formation was twice as large as before.

The Great Qin cavalry rode their horses on the periphery.

The Xiongnu were surrounded in the middle.

They walked all the way toward the direction of Great Qin.

But because the Xiongnu were walking.

The speed of this cavalry formation was reduced countless times.

It took a full two days to travel two hundred li.

By the time they returned to the Great Wall border defense camp.

The bright moon was already in the sky.

Wang Li and the tens of thousands of troops appeared near the border defense camp in a grand manner.

It was a dark and windy night, which immediately alerted the border defense army.

They thought there was a sneak attack by an external enemy.

This caused tens of thousands of soldiers to surround them immediately.

If it weren't for the scouts sent by Wang Li and the others behind them to notify, they would likely have been shot to death by a hail of arrows.

When they learned that it was Wang Li and the others returning with captured Xiongnu and cattle, sheep, and horses.

The border defense army immediately became lively.

Grand General Meng Tian came out to welcome them directly.

Seeing so many captives, Meng Tian was also quite surprised.

However, thinking of His Highness's decree, he understood it.

Capture as many as possible and try not to slaughter them.

Otherwise, how could there be so many captives?

"Grand General, we have not failed our mission!"

"All people and livestock of the Qiu Tribe have been captured; not even a single sheep was let go!"

"And this group of people is not good stuff either."

"If it weren't for His Highness's decree, we wouldn't have intended to capture them back."

Commandant Zhao briefly reported the battle situation to Meng Tian.

When Meng Tian learned that the people of the Qiu Tribe were of that nature.

He was so angry he almost issued a slaughter order.

Nearly two thousand Great Qin citizens had been captured.

In just a few days, more than half had been brutally killed.

Fortunately, half of them were rescued.

Otherwise, this operation would really have lacked some meaning.

"Lock them all up first."

"This group of people is simply uncivilized barbarians."

"As for how to deal with them, let His Highness handle it."

"This general will not participate; I am afraid I won't be able to resist slaughtering them."

Meng Tian kept a cold face, constantly suppressing a murderous aura on his body.

He knew the deep-rooted bad nature of the Xiongnu.

But he rarely saw an entire tribe like this.

The tribes encountered before would occasionally be like this, but not all of them.

Now this so-called Qiu Tribe, even the children are like this; is there any saving for this group of people?

He didn't know; if he were in charge, he would choose to kill them all.

But now the one in charge is His Highness, not him.

Out of sight, out of mind; he could only do this.

Commandant Zhao followed the Grand General's arrangements.

He locked up and guarded this group of people.

As for how to deal with them, he left it to His Highness to decide. ===== CHAPTER 566 =====
