A few days later.
The northeastern territory of the Qin Empire.
In Anyang County Mansion, the county guard and the county lieutenant Zhou Ce were a little shocked.
Because Wei Qing, the Marquis of Pingbei and the General of Zhengbei, came.
Plus Earl Zhenwei General Chen Jing.
There are also hundreds of elite cavalry.
These two people, no matter their titles or official ranks, are untouchable by Anyang.
Anyang County Sheriff and Zhou Ce were also extremely respectful and hurriedly held a banquet in the county mansion. They naturally flattered them, but they did not dare to ask any questions.
Wei Qing said: "Your Majesty has ordered that I will be in charge of the Northeast Pass starting from tomorrow."
"Yes!" How dare Zhou Ce say no.
After Wei Qing rested here for one night, he rushed to the border the next day without staying much.
Northeast Pass, the place where Yu Anmin let the ghost tribe in.
Today, this place is heavily guarded, with one post every three steps, one sentry every five steps, and the city defense camp is nearby. As long as the city gate is attacked, a large number of troops can immediately support it.
Some military strongholds, beacon towers, and military posts were also established outside the city gate.
Wei Qing was dressed in a general's armor, with a cloak on his back and a sword hanging on his waist. He walked quickly up the tower with Chen Jing.
Seeing him, the soldiers guarding the city all saluted: "General."
After he passed by, someone whispered:
"Hey, I heard that this is General Wei Qing, the Marquis of Pingbei."
"Really? I have heard of General Wei's name a long time ago. He is the founding father of the country due to his merits from the dragon."
"No, I heard that General Wei was called the best general by His Majesty. I don't know how many bad battles he fought in the past."
"Tsk, then General Wei came to our Anyang to inspect the border?"
"Who knows, in short, keep your back straight when standing guard."
After arriving at the city defense and inspecting the defense for a week, Wei Qing and Chen Jing stood side by side and looked into the distance: "The Northeast Pass is good now. If the ghost tribe wants to enter the pass like before, they will fail here."
Chen Jingdao: "In the last battle, His Majesty ordered the king's army to annihilate the 600,000 ghost army. As far as the ghost clan is concerned, the loss was not 600,000 civilians, but the elite troops, who spent countless gold. Iron-armored heavy cavalry made of silver. In this battle, the ghost clan was severely damaged. With its financial resources and population, it will never be possible to recover in the short term. "
"So your Majesty must launch a military provocation first to force the ghost clan to fight." Wei Qing said: "Otherwise, it will be another troublesome thing for them to recover their strength."
"Yes." Chen Jing said: "A blood feud must be avenged. This is also what the people want!"
Wei Qing nodded: "Back then, the ghost tribe invaded the Central Plains, massacring young and old, leaving mountains of bones, arresting young girls, raping them on the spot, and cooking them to death on the spot. Every time I think of these evil deeds, it makes people grit their teeth!"
"As soon as the general said that, I felt anger rushing straight to my forehead! This ghost tribe is really hateful!" Chen Jing clenched his fists.
"Then hit them first and treat them the same way as others!" Wei Qing said.
Just as he was talking, a spy from the military aircraft battalion quickly ran up. After approaching, he knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said: "General, we have found out that the ghost tribe's border garrison is near Sais City. The exact number is unknown. It’s clear, but the villages and towns near them are unprepared.”
Seth City, a border town of the ghost tribe, is about sixty miles away from the Northeast Pass.
"I know, let's explore again." Wei Qing waved his hand.
"No!" The spy took the order and left.
Chen Jing subconsciously asked: "How is the general going to act?"
"It seems that after the last defeat, the ghost tribe began to set up defenses against us and has already stationed troops in Seth City."
Wei Qing said: "We currently don't have a clear grasp of the ghost clan's map. We can only use light cavalry to sweep their border villages and towns and pay blood for blood."
Then he added: "After the cavalry has rested for two days and the horses have been fed with fine food, General Chen will be responsible for the affairs of the military aircraft camp so that the cavalry can keep in touch with the camp at any time."
"No!" Chen Jing clasped his fists and accepted the order. This time, not only were there hundreds of elite cavalry, there were also elite spies, the kind who knew how to use falcons.
Two days later.
Outside the Northeast Pass, three hundred elite cavalry have been assembled. The Qin troops on horseback each have swords hanging on their waists, and a powerful crossbow is slung on one side of the horse, which can be used at any time.
This time it was all light cavalry, and what they wanted was sweeping speed and great impact and lethality.
Wei Qing was also riding a war horse, standing directly in front of the crowd. He pulled the reins slightly and shouted in a loud voice:
"The demonic behavior of the ghost clan invading the Central Plains and massacring our compatriots will never be forgotten by me!"
"Remember our fellow villagers! They were deboned by demons!"
"Remember the thousands of fellow girls! They were led by demons with ropes to commit genocide!"
"The ghost clan is unforgivable!"
"Soldiers!"
"Raise your swords!"
"Follow me into enemy territory!"
"Remember!"
"Kill people when you meet them! Kill ghosts when you meet ghosts!"
"Kill all the ghosts!!!"
"Kill all the ghosts——"
Three hundred cavalrymen shouted in unison.
Wei Qing pulled the reins, the horse turned around, swung his sword and pointed: "Kill!"
As soon as the words fell, Renye was the first to rush out.
"drive!!"
The ground behind him shook, and the war horses came out in unison, mixed with the billowing dust and smoke, and galloped away.
Seeing this scene, the defenders on the city defense were excited!
"In the past, foreign races invaded us! There has never been a counterattack!"
"I, Da Qin, are mighty!"
"I want to go too!"
"I don't know when I will be able to fight against the ghost clan. I will be the first!"
"The blood feud is still vivid in my mind! If it weren't for the military order, I would have wanted to rush out right now, follow General Wei Qing, and kill him till everything turns upside down!"
The defenders here are mostly former Anjun troops. They hate the ghost tribe more than other places, because many people's family members died at the hands of the ghost tribe.
At noon, a village near Seth City.
Although the administrative regions of the ghost tribe are different from those of the Central Plains, they also have villages and towns where people gather.
There are about two hundred people in this place. At this time, most of them are in the village, and many people are chatting with neighbors at the door.
The ground shook, and the rumble of horse hooves came from far and near.
"What is this sound? Do you hear it?"
Everyone in the ghost tribe was confused, with confusion in their eyes.
Before they could react, the Great Qin cavalry appeared, covered in darkness and filled with dust.
The cavalry is extremely fast, lightning fast, and arrives almost instantly!
Without any nonsense, without any words, amidst the screams of terror, the Qin cavalry rushed into the ghost settlement, firing crossbows at random, and miserable howls came one after another.
Then, the Qin sword was unsheathed.
Under the sun, an icy cold light appeared, and the cavalry rushed past, blood splattered.
It was like a strong wind sweeping across the entire area.
Another person threw a jar of kerosene into various houses while riding his horse.
When the cavalry rushed past, a crossbowman turned around, bent his bow, and fired rockets.
The fire was like a long snake, spreading instantly along the fire oil, and then became a raging force.
Wails spread everywhere, some people fell in a pool of blood, killed in the impact just now, and some people were still in the house, and when they rushed out, they were like burning people, dancing sadly.
"Next place!"
Wei Qing ordered coldly.
