Chapter 567
It was indeed horses, many, many horses!
If the prediction is correct, it should be Touman Chanyu using warhorses to exchange for Maoshi.
"Bring Maoshi and that translator up."
"Understood!"
The soldier received the order and left.
Ying Ying Zi Ye saw the dense herd of horses galloping toward this side.
He couldn't help but reveal a trace of a smile on his face.
It seems that Maoshi's status in Touman Chanyu's heart is quite important.
Otherwise, he wouldn't use fifty thousand warhorses to exchange for a person.
"Your Highness, this Maoshi is very valuable!"
"Should we capture him again when we release him back?"
"Or just not release him at all; those are all warhorses!"
Commandant Zhao stood on the Great Wall, his mind full of warhorses.
He was thinking, if all the warhorses could be matched with the warhorse three-piece set and the Ma Dao.
If that time comes, who could rival the border defense army?
The combat power would directly multiply countless times!
He even wanted to detain Maoshi directly and extort them again.
If he did this a few more times, the border defense army would not lack warhorses.
However, this could only be thought about; Touman Chanyu would not have so many warhorses to give to Great Qin.
But he really wanted to do this once.
Directly pit the Xiongnu until they were completely ruined.
But he couldn't make the decision on this matter.
Ying Ying Zi Ye glanced at Commandant Zhao speechlessly.
This guy is really addicted to tasting the sweetness.
If they don't release the person, Great Qin will lose face.
After all, this is not a private matter; it has already escalated to a matter between a country and a tribe.
If it spreads out, it will sound somewhat unpleasant to Great Qin's reputation; this is inappropriate.
Before Ying Ying Zi Ye could speak, Meng Tian spoke up.
It seemed as if he were afraid that Ying Ying Zi Ye would agree to this unreasonable request.
"If it were a private transaction, doing this would be understandable."
"But this is a transaction with a tribal alliance; this move is inappropriate."
"If it spreads out, it will ruin the reputation of our Great Qin."
"Although there is no need for a reputation when dealing with enemies, some things should be done, and some things should not."
"Great Qin cannot bear such a bad name; they are just small Xiongnu, there will be plenty of opportunities next time."
Meng Tian's expression was indifferent; he did not take these Xiongnu to heart.
After all, he had previously driven the Xiongnu out of the Hetao region.
The current warhorse equipment is much more powerful than before.
Plus, with warhorses gradually increasing, fighting the Xiongnu has become even simpler and more brutal.
Previously, it was because of the need to build the Great Wall that he couldn't get away; now, not only are there more warhorses, but the Great Wall is also no longer being built.
In the remaining time, it will be about beating the Xiongnu; there is plenty of time to play with them slowly.
As long as they wait until next spring, when Great Qin's grain can be harvested.
By then, there will be more grain than they can eat, and they can fight wherever they want, hitting whatever they point at!
"Grand General Meng Tian is right."
"Small Xiongnu are indeed not worth damaging our Great Qin's reputation."
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future; then it will depend on your operations."
Ying Ying Zi Ye ultimately did not agree to Commandant Zhao's request.
Commandant Zhao smiled sheepishly.
He was just saying it casually; not to mention His Highness Ying Ying Zi Ye on this matter.
Even Grand General Meng Tian would not agree now.
If they want to obtain warhorses, they can only think of other methods.
"There are methods to obtain warhorses."
"Hehehe."
A hearty voice came from afar.
It was Han Xin; after receiving the news, he also ran here quickly.
On the way, he encountered Maoshi and Luo Huan being brought by soldiers, and he brought them along.
He and Grand General Meng Tian had conspired together to pit Maoshi for two thousand warhorses.
Now seeing the warhorses coming, how could he not be happy?
This counts as the time he obtained the most spoils on his own.
"Your Highness, the Chanyu has finally sent the warhorses."
"You can finally go back!"
Luo Huan's tone was excited; they originally didn't know what was going on.
They were brought out by people early in the morning.
They thought they were going to be tortured with punishment.
It wasn't until they arrived at the Great Wall that they saw the massive horse herd approaching rapidly.
When Maoshi saw those warhorses in the distance, he almost shed tears.
These past few days in the Great Qin military camp, he has been terrified.
Every day felt like a year!
He was afraid that if something went wrong, he wouldn't be able to go back.
Now, the moment he saw the warhorses, he finally let out a sigh of relief in his heart.
"This is all thanks to you; otherwise, it definitely wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
"From now on, you are my brother; when I go back, I will find a way to get you back."
Maoshi's tone was somewhat excited.
Luo Huan also accompanied him with a smile; he didn't know if he would be able to go back.
There might still be a chance to go back in the future.
That is why he would try his best to help Maoshi; if he goes back in the future, his days should be better.
This counts as forming a good connection; who dares to guarantee whether he can go back or not?
Wang Li looked at the horse herd with burning eyes.
And the approximately thirty thousand cavalry behind them; he was tempted.
"Your Highness, should we detain them all?"
"If we detain this batch of people."
"For our Great Qin, there are only benefits and no harm!"
At this time, the horse herd stopped when it was about two li away from the Great Wall.
There were tens of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry following behind; they did not dare to move forward anymore.
They all had an appearance of being nervous and preparing for battle.
To be honest, Ying Ying Zi Ye was also somewhat moved.
But thinking that releasing Maoshi back still has some use, and also considering Great Qin's reputation.
This move is not feasible.
In the future, Great Qin might have to deal with many parties; if they don't keep their word, it will damage their reputation if it spreads out.
"There will be opportunities next time; let's forget it this time."
"Don't say anything more; if you keep talking, I might really not be able to resist taking action in a while." ===== CHAPTER 569 =====
