Chapter 722: Maoshi arrives, the net is cast

On the Great Wall.

Shanu was holding a Thousand-Mile Mirror, observing every move of the Xiongnu.

He had originally just finished a nap.

While bored, he had run up to the Great Wall to see if the Xiongnu had arrived.

Less than a stick of incense after taking the Thousand-Mile Mirror from another soldier,

he discovered a large group of Xiongnu cavalry in the distance!

This sight left Shanu stunned for quite a while.

He even thought he had misread the situation.

He looked several more times in succession.

Only then did he confirm that the Xiongnu had truly arrived.

This filled him with immense joy.

"Are these Xiongnu sick in the head?"

"If you had stayed further away, I wouldn't have discovered you."

"But you chose to rest your main force so close."

"Are you doing this on purpose so Great Qin can find you?"

Shanu sneered repeatedly in his heart.

It was all thanks to the Thousand-Mile Mirror!

Otherwise, he truly would not have been able to spot those Xiongnu.

It was also the Xiongnu's bad luck.

If they hadn't come so close, or if they had found a place with cover to rest, it would have been fine!

They only had themselves to blame for their ignorance.

Great Qin possessed the immortal tool, the Thousand-Mile Mirror!

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been foolish enough to charge so close before resting.

Shanu kept observing the movements of the Xiongnu.

Although he couldn't see very clearly, he was fortunate enough to see them nonetheless.

"These people are cooking food."

"It looks like they intend to come over at night."

"Knowing you've arrived makes things easy."

Shanu summoned a soldier and had him take over the task of monitoring the distance.

As for himself, he went to report the news.

They had been waiting here like farmers waiting for a rabbit to hit a tree, not knowing when the enemy would come.

Now that he knew they had arrived, things were much simpler.

Shanu hurried back to the border garrison.

But he could not find Han Xin and the others; even the General and the rest were nowhere to be found.

After some inquiries, he learned they had gone to the prisoner camp.

Shanu whipped his horse and rushed over.

Just as he approached the prisoner camp, he heard many wails coming from within.

Shanu thought someone was torturing the Xiongnu to death.

When he got closer, he realized the situation was not as he had imagined.

He saw General Meng Tian and the others standing to the side, watching.

The bound Xiongnu had not eaten for a day and a night.

They were currently wailing.

It was no wonder; they were all tied up.

How could they eat?

The Great Qin soldiers couldn't possibly feed them one by one.

After all, there were over a hundred thousand of them; who had the leisure to feed them?

As soon as Shanu approached, he heard a group of generals conversing.

"Keeping them tied up like this is not a solution."

"If we keep them tied up, will they starve to death?"

"Starving them weak is one thing, but if they starve to death, things will be difficult."

"Starving them to death is not our goal; this group is to be sent to Lishan."

"They certainly cannot be allowed to starve to death here." ===== CHAPTER 724 =====
