Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 197 Conquer the Qin Army!

Dunwan Hill, in the royal tent of the Qiang clan leader.

The clan leader, Ermu Pheasant, sat in the military tent and kept tapping the table with his fingers. He looked at the sun rising slowly outside the tent, feeling a little anxious and flustered in his heart, frowning slightly.

For decades, their tribe had been at war with the Qin army.

Qin was troubled by foreign invasions and wars with the Central Plains countries, and even built the Great Wall to resist the attacks of their western tribes.

But today, the Qin State actually sent tens of thousands of cavalry to attack their grassland. This move made everyone feel unbelievable.

If there were only [-] cavalry, everyone would not take it seriously, but behind these [-] cavalry was the entire Qin State.

You must know that the Qin State ranks first among the six countries in terms of national power and manpower.

The entire Qin State's military strength alone has reached 50, not counting the tens of millions of Qin's people.

The combined strength of all the tribes in their grasslands is only 50. What's more, over the years, each tribe has competed for cattle, horses, sheep, herdsmen, and land, resulting in endless wars. The tribes have already had a deep hatred for each other.

At this time, there was silence in the military tent. The elders of the Qiang clan sat on both sides with solemn expressions, quietly waiting for the news.

As the first ray of morning light shone on the grassland, all three armies launched an encirclement and suppression campaign in accordance with the agreed plan.

Suddenly, the Qin State's three cavalry armies swept towards the grassland and killed many tribes in the grassland.

Tiger and leopard cavalry, golden fire cavalry and captured herdsmen, tens of thousands of horses galloped and killed on this grassland wantonly. Tribes encountered along the way, whoever did not surrender were directly slaughtered and cleared up without mercy. Killings were carried out all over the grassland. Appear everywhere!

As the three armies advanced, the entire Qiang tribe on the grassland became a mess, and they all moved towards the Dunwan Hills.

The leader of the Qiang clan, Wang Zhang!

"Report..."

A Qiang cavalryman was covered in blood, his face full of panic, and he ran towards the Qiang clan chief's royal tent with an urgent battle report.

"Patriarch, it's not good, patriarch..."

As soon as the Qiang cavalry arrived in front of the king's tent, they jumped off their horses desperately and rushed in regardless of the guards' obstruction. They knelt on the ground tremblingly and said in a panic: "The clan...the clan leader, the elders led by them are responsible for annihilating the Qin army." All the [-] Qiang cavalrymen in the iron cavalry were killed, and less than a hundred of them escaped. Our losses were extremely heavy!!"

When Ermu Pheasant, the leader of the Qiang clan, heard the news, he was like a bolt from the blue. His eyes widened and he stood there with a pale face.

Even the other elders sitting on both sides were frightened and overwhelmed by the sudden bad news. They looked at the Qiang cavalry in disbelief, raised their hands and pointed at him tremblingly and asked: "Is the Qin Kingdom still here?" Did you bring other troops? How many tens of thousands of people did you bring?"

The Qiang cavalry leaned down and put their heads firmly on the ground: "Chief, elder, their Qin country has less than 6000 men and horses, and there are 3000 herdsmen captured by them, a total of [-] people."

The elder was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of disbelief, and he confirmed again: "You...do you know the consequences of lying about military information?"

Hearing this, the Qiang cavalry immediately lay down on the ground, their bodies trembling non-stop: "Chief, elder, and the one hundred cavalry who escaped from me are outside the tent, each of them is seriously injured, and we dare not lie in the slightest. If I weren’t familiar with the grassland, I would have died there.”

Hearing the news, the Qiang elders seemed to have lost their souls. They stared at the red sky reflected by the morning light outside the tent, and said in a nonchalant voice: "My prairie man... Forty thousand Qiang cavalry were killed like this." The Qin people killed him!!"

These Qiang cavalry were all warriors who had experienced many battles, large and small, on the grasslands, and now they were killed by the Qin cavalry!
At this moment, a rushing voice came from outside the military tent again.

"Report..."

A clan member quickly strode in from outside the tent, knelt in front of Ermu Pheasant and reported: "Clan Chief, the Qin army led a large group of cavalry and herdsmen to sweep away from the top of Eling Lake and the grassland and mountains below. The various tribes on the grassland were littered with corpses wherever they passed. They also took away the tribe's cattle, sheep and horses, as well as a large number of herdsmen. All the herdsmen who refused to surrender were killed by them. In order to preserve their strength, each tribe retreated one after another. "

"Pfft~"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Qiang clan leader's face suddenly turned pale, and the pent-up anger in his heart suddenly burst out. A mouthful of blood spurted out uncontrollably, and he was about to fall down as soon as his eyes turned black.

"Father!!" Erkehan, the son of the patriarch, shouted and rushed forward, stretched out his hand to support the patriarch Ermu Pheasant, and kept patting his back: "Father, father, put the overall situation first! !”

Ermu Zhi slowly opened his eyes and sat up slowly. His resentful heart gradually calmed down. He looked at the elders kneeling in front of him and asked, "Elders, what should we do now?"

Erkehan's face was cold, he clenched the fist in his hand and snorted coldly. He stared sharply outside the king's tent and said angrily: "Father, the Qin army is so arrogant and ignores my prairie cavalry. , please allow me, father, to lead my prairie son to destroy these Qin people."

The other elders kneeling below, listening to the elder's words, all said excitedly: "Chief, the prince is right, we must not let the Qin army show off on the grassland!"

"Yes, the grassland is where my sons and daughters have lived for generations. The Qin Military Region dares to kill 1 people. We should teach these Qin troops who don't know the heights of the sky a lesson."

"Clan Chief, now that the Qin army is divided into three groups to attack, there are not many Qin soldiers led by each of them. Most of them rely on the slaves to help them charge into the battle. And the main force of the Qin army destroyed another [-] of our army. The cavalry will definitely be full of arrogance and come straight to my royal tent on Dunwan Hill. As the saying goes, a proud soldier will be defeated!"

"The current plan is that if we can gather all the prairie cavalry and annihilate the main force of the Qin Army in the middle, then the Qin Army on the two sides will not be afraid, and the Qin Army will be defeated!"

"Chief, give me an order to summon all the cavalry from each tribe before the grassland tribes have lost many men. If the Qin army continues to sweep away, more tribes will inevitably suffer."

"Yes, Patriarch, if you hesitate, you will lose!"

"Father, I am willing to take the lead and test these Qin troops!"

……

All the elders knelt in front of them and spoke to the clan leader, Ermu Pheasant.

Now they have clearly grasped the marching trend of the Qin army, and now their opponent is the main force of the Qin army coming towards them.

After listening to the opinions of many elders, the patriarch's expression changed a few times, then he gritted his teeth, glanced at the elders in the king's tent with angry eyes, and said sternly: "Elders, since the Qin army has now led the gang If the slaves come to kill us, we can no longer sit back and wait for death, it’s time to take action!”

They can't just sit back and watch while the Qin army marches in and plunders everything on the grassland. As a man of the grassland, they can't easily withdraw from the grassland!
Now that the Qin army is coming, they not only want to severely defeat the enemy, but also completely destroy the enemy so that Qin can see the strength of their prairie cavalry, so that the Qin army does not dare to invade the grassland again.

"Yes, the slaves of the Qiang people will only surrender to the Qiang people. Who are those Qin people!"

"Defeat the Qin army, take back everything on the grassland, and let them see the power of my grassland cavalry!"

"We Qiang people have plundered the Qin State for many years, and we think we know the Qin people very well. It is impossible for the Qin State's cavalry to slaughter our [-] prairie cavalry. It must be those tribesmen who want to escape the blame and deliberately shirk their responsibilities. , deliberately exaggerating the strength of these Qin people and making excuses for their defeat."

"You're right. If these Qin people are really so cruel, how could they hide behind the Great Wall all these years and be submissive."

"These Qin people have always been unruly. If you don't teach them a lesson, they will really think that our Qiang clan has no one!"

The fighting spirit rose in the eyes of all the elders, and a fierce killing intent burst out.

It was always the western tribes that invaded the Qin people. Unexpectedly, today the Qin people dared to attack the grassland and killed tens of thousands of Qiang people, plundered their cattle, sheep and horses, and captured their slaves. Where did they swallow them? With such a reluctance, now they have to be driven out and killed. There is no way to survive at all.

"Elders, summon the army immediately and set off with the clan leader!"

With the strong murderous intent igniting in the eyes of all the elders, the clan leader Ermu Fei stood up and issued a battle order with a cold face, calling everyone to leave the king's tent, and immediately led the army to prepare to fight the main force of the Qin army!

Who can truly occupy this grassland, and who is the master here?

Only a battle can decide it!
Soon, the elders of each tribe asked their subordinates to convey the clan leader's order to everyone. The retreating Qiang cavalry received the news and began to gather towards Dunwan Hills without any hesitation.

In just half an hour, [-] troops gathered together.

This is the only remaining force of the Qiang clan.

"Boom~"

A team of [-] Qiang cavalry, led by the Qiang clan chief and many elders, began to overwhelmingly attack the Qin army led by Yingjun!
