Chapter 482

"Your Majesty."

Meng Tian arrived in front of Made Ying Zheng in the fastest time possible.

Made Ying Zheng raised his head from the memorials, and then those calm eyes looked at Meng Tian.

During the time it took for Meng Tian to arrive, Made Ying Zheng had already slowly calmed all the emotions in his heart.

"Have you already known about the Xiongnu appearing to harass the Great Qin border again?"

Made Ying Zheng said, his voice somewhat low and cold.

"This subject has received some news."

Meng Tian nodded to indicate that he already knew about this matter.

"What is your view?"

Made Ying Zheng asked.

"Please allow this subject to personally go to the border and eliminate all these Xiongnu."

"This time, I will bring a portion of elite forces."

"Once these Xiongnu break into small groups, I will lead the elite forces to break them one by one."

Meng Tian said with certainty.

It was not that no one had thought of using this method before.

But the cost of this method was too great, and no military official was willing to spend several years wasting away at the border.

Those civil and military officials also thought the cost was too great and did not support this idea at all.

Even though Made Ying Zheng's heart was filled with killing intent towards the Xiongnu, he could only helplessly give up.

But Meng Tian felt that during this period, Xianyang City was in a time of trouble.

The best way was to keep himself away from Xianyang City.

Even if it meant spending a few more years fighting the Xiongnu, it didn't matter at all.

Made Ying Zheng's gaze fluctuated for a moment.

In his heart, he had originally intended to fight.

But he had discussed this matter with some officials in the imperial court before.

Most of the officials still held the previous view.

They believed that going to such great lengths to confront these Xiongnu was truly unnecessary.

After all, these Xiongnu only occasionally harassed the Great Qin border and could not cause too much loss.

After the morning court session, Made Ying Zheng's face was expressionless, but in his heart, he was suppressing a wave of anger.

After hearing Meng Tian's words, the expression on his face finally looked a few points better.

"Are you sure you want to go?"

He asked, his voice softening a few points.

Meng Tian accurately grasped the change in Made Ying Zheng's tone.

His gaze fluctuated, and then he spoke with unusual certainty.

"Please allow this subject to personally go to the border to fight the Xiongnu."

"If the Xiongnu are not eliminated, this subject will never return to the court."

Meng Tian even directly issued a military pledge.

"Good."

"How could our glorious Great Qin fear those petty Xiongnu?"

"I will hand this matter entirely to you; you will lead an army of 50,000 to the border."

"This time, I hope to hear the news that the Xiongnu have been completely eliminated."

Made Ying Zheng said.

His tone was full of dominance and killing intent.

At this time, Wumian had already entered the palace and was hiding in the shadows.

When he entered the palace, he had already felt a powerful aura lingering around Made Ying Zheng.

In order not to disturb the secret guards by Made Ying Zheng's side, Wumian tried his best to blend his aura with the surroundings.

This resulted in Gai Nie not discovering Wumian's approach at the first moment.

The entire conversation between Made Ying Zheng and Meng Tian was heard by Wumian.

Wumian did not expect that Meng Tian would actually choose to go to the battlefield personally.

One must know that this great battle was somewhat thankless and would take several years.

Several years were enough for Meng Tian to rise a few more official ranks.

It was also enough for the Meng family to manage their power and status to a higher level during this period.

After Made Ying Zheng issued the decree, Wumian's gaze flickered, and then he quietly retreated.

The entire figure once again disappeared into the palace of Xianyang City like a black shadow.

Coming without a shadow and leaving without a trace, this perfectly interpreted Wumian's actions.

Wumian arrived at Ying Mo's location in the fastest time possible and reported the news here to Ying Mo.

"Young Master, Made Ying Zheng has handed this matter entirely to Meng Tian to be responsible for."

"This time, Meng Tian seems to intend to completely eliminate the Xiongnu, leaving not a single living soul."

Wumian said.

Ying Mo did not expect that this time Made Ying Zheng seemed to intend to fight the Xiongnu to the end.

Before, when his injuries were slightly healed, he had intended to have the Xiongnu completely eliminated.

But the army he sent out at that time also faced the same situation as the Great Qin army.

After struggling with the Xiongnu for three months to no avail, he could only withdraw the Snow Dragon Cavalry.

Ying Mo had originally intended to first eliminate all the true culprits of that year before dealing with the Xiongnu.

But he did not expect that during this period, the Xiongnu would actually jump to the surface again.

And this time, Made Ying Zheng seemed to have the determination to completely eliminate the Xiongnu.

Ying Mo's eyes were suddenly somewhat unfocused, and he fell into thought...

Neither Wumian nor Lu Li interrupted Ying Mo's thinking.

"Have you investigated clearly who released this news?"

Ying Mo asked.

Before, Wumian was hiding in the army just to investigate who was the first to spread this news.

Wumian immediately nodded.

"The one who spread it was a minor general; it seems his family has someone serving as a soldier at the border, which is why he got the news first."

"Then I personally sent people from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion to the border to investigate the situation."

"I originally thought it was baseless news, but I didn't expect that the Xiongnu's figures really appeared at the border."

"Perhaps this news is not fake."

Wumian said.

Ying Mo did not expect that this news was actually true.

But the sequence of this news was a bit strange.

How did the people in Xianyang City know about the news of the Xiongnu appearing there first?

One must know that these two places are separated by over a thousand miles; even with fast horses, it would take seven days to return.

The light in his eyes flickered again.

This news was released only after he released the news about resolving the murderer.

The news came out too hurriedly.

But it was very perfect, not letting anyone grasp any handle at all.

It seems those people behind the scenes had long planned to make certain moves.

It was only because of his own news that they were forced to bring those small actions to the surface ahead of time.

Damn things.

A hint of coldness flashed in Ying Mo's eyes.

It turned out that without his knowledge, that group of people hiding at the bottom had once again woven a huge conspiracy.
