empire wars

Chapter 42
Qin Yi led a few people forward, and quickly determined the number of these horses, exactly one thousand, enough to form a not weak cavalry.

However, compared with what Beilin gained in this battle, it was far behind.

"Very good, but the quantity is too small. Can the dignified Jin family not even produce [-] war horses?"

Through the night, Qin Yuan stared directly at the powerful Jin Gonggun.

He contacted the Northern Qiang Jin Sect through the Gu family, and wanted to buy [-] war horses, but the other party was only willing to trade [-] horses, which made Qin Yuan very dissatisfied.

"After all, this is the first transaction, I hope you understand."

The bearded middle-aged man next to him spoke. "If your lord can transport food to our tribe, we are willing to trade as many war horses as you want."

Food, for the Northern Qiang people, is the most important thing.

However, a large amount of grain is not easy to trade. This time they ventured into Xiyong Liangzhou. If they are discovered by other tribes, they may not escape death. Therefore, they chose silk trading, which is small in quantity and easy to carry without affecting the marching speed.

Qin Yuan chuckled, but didn't strike up a conversation.

If you have that ability, why trade? Why not just grab it?

"I heard that your royal family is not in harmony with the Eight Kings tribe. If you have the opportunity, why not cooperate with something other than business?"

Qin Yuan looked at Jin Gonggun and said.

Since the opponent sent Jin Gonggun, who possesses the strength of the Houtian realm, he must have the same meaning.

Of course, as a royal tribe, it is normal to have warriors in the acquired realm. If not, it would be strange.

"My emperor also has this intention, but it depends on whether the county magistrate Qin has the strength."

Jin Gonggun stared at Qin Yuan, as if to say, you are not qualified now.

Even if these thousands of cavalry surprised him, if he wanted to cooperate with the Beiqiang royal family, he must at least be a state shepherd or a powerful governor.

A county magistrate, like a small tribe on the grassland, is not qualified to discuss cooperation with the Northern Qiang royal family.

"Then, wait and see."

Qin Yuan smiled faintly. It seemed that the Beiqiang royal family also had this wish, so it would be easy to handle.

Otherwise, this transaction would not send a great commander.

You know, the northern part of Xiyong Liangzhou is now the territory of the Ma clan.

If it is discovered, the Ma clan doesn't mind killing a leader of the royal family.

The two parties quickly reached some agreements, but they were all simple agreements, which could be regarded as planting the seeds of cooperation.

In the future, if Qin Yuan blocked the Ma clan and could threaten the Ma clan, the Northern Qiang royal family would not mind sending troops to defeat the Ma clan together.

At the same time, the time and place for the next batch of war horse transactions were also agreed upon. The number is tentatively set at [-], and grain transactions will be adopted.

"The Northern Qiang people are uneasy and well-intentioned. They just want us to fight with the Ma clan so that they can take advantage of the opportunity to rob them."

Bai Qi watched the Northern Qiang people leave, and said solemnly.

"This is an enemy, but an enemy's enemy can be a friend for the time being."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "At least, you don't have to worry about not having a horse in the future!"

"It's better to grab it directly. As long as you win the Northern Qiang cavalry, there will be plenty of horses."

Bai Qi said disdainfully.

Qin Yuan nodded slightly, that's right.

However, at least I contacted the Northern Qiang royal family and learned that they did have internal conflicts, and they were very deep. When Jin Gonggun said it, he had no intention of covering it up.

It can be regarded as leaving a back-up, and attacking from the front and back, there is a chance to eliminate the Ma clan.

"Go, go back to the city first!"

Qin Yuan thought for a while, and felt that he was thinking too far.

The most important thing now is to stick to Mingwu City.

I heard that the northern Qiang cavalry has [-] troops going south, no matter how powerful the Killing God Army is, it is impossible to be their opponent.

His own Dragon Scale Army must be formed quickly to form a fighting force.

In the early morning, a huge team of more than [-] people was advancing slowly, with no end in sight.

"Magistrate Qin, the traitor has been found. It's the Pan and Song families. They have been brought under control."

On the official road, Qin Yuan led the army and escorted the team.

With the protection of Qin Yuan's army, the people of Beilin City felt a lot more at ease. They didn't have to worry about being afraid, and they were silently grateful in their hearts.

"For traitors, there is only one way."

Qin Yuan stared at Magistrate Zhou and said coldly. "Dead end."

Qin Yuan waved his hand and asked Bai Qi to deal with it. As for the assets of the two families, of course they would all be confiscated.

"Yes! General Bai, please come with me."

Magistrate Zhou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Soon, there was a scream and begging for mercy not far away.

It was not until noon that the team arrived at the gate of Mingwu City.

At the gate of the city, Shen Liwen looked at the winding and endless line, both happy and headache.

Happily, the population of Mingwucheng has doubled, and the power of his county magistrate has increased a lot.

The headache is that there are more than [-] people all of a sudden, and they are facing a series of huge problems.

Only a part of the tens of thousands of people in the four towns of Beilin were resettled yesterday, and many people have not yet been properly arranged.

"It's over to you."

Qin Yuan looked at Shen Liwen and other officials, and smiled faintly. "At the same time, continue to publicize recruitment information and recruit more soldiers as soon as possible."

"Yes, I will definitely live up to the high expectations of the county magistrate."

Shen Liwen responded quickly.

At this moment, he was completely overwhelmed by Qin Yuan, this man is really omnipotent.

Looking at the thousands of cavalry behind Qin Yuan, his eyes almost popped out. This guy probably robbed the Northern Qiang people and stole their horses.

I heard that there were tens of thousands of cavalry besieging Beilin City, so they must not have been wiped out.

Shen Liwen and the others thought in their hearts, and the more they thought about it, the more they felt it was possible. Their eyes looked at Qin Yuan, and they gradually became awed and adored.

"Okay, let's go to work, and solve the personnel problem early."

Qin Yuan saw their thoughts and said indifferently.

Just as he was about to enter the city, Qin Yuan's heart beat violently, and a sense of crisis suddenly descended.

"Shh!"

A roaring sound broke through the air, coming at an extremely fast speed, and landed in front of Qin Yuan in the blink of an eye.

"Protect the lord!"

Qin Yi's complexion changed drastically, he rushed out and stopped in front of Qin Yuan.

The spear was swung out, and there was an extra layer of protective energy exclusive to the Houtian realm on his body.

Puff!

A piercing arrow struck swiftly, and the long spear was torn into pieces, and his protective energy was also broken.

The blood arrow penetrated Qin Yi's body, and the sharp metal arrow revealed a cold light, which was revealed from the back.

"Enemy attack!"

Qin Yuan supported Qin Yi and looked at a hilltop several hundred meters away.

Over there, one person, one horse and one bow, looked extremely lonely. Seeing that the arrow didn't kill Qin Yuan, the man seemed to show a regretful expression.

In the blink of an eye, the man didn't make another move, but drove away and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Kill the God Army, follow me!"

Bai Qi shouted angrily, and led the killing god army galloping on horseback, chasing after him.

"Advanced city!"

Qin Yuan's face was ashen, and he wanted to kill the assassin, even if he paid some luck points, but the assassin ran away, and he was probably lying in ambush in a corner, waiting for Qin Yuan to pursue him.

Qin Yuan thought for a while, supported the injured Qin Yi, and escorted him into the city surrounded by the Great Qin Tiger Guard and Dragon Scale Legion.

At this time, he noticed Qin Yi's wound, the entire chest was penetrated, which shows how terrifying the power of this arrow is.

You know, Qin Yi is a strong man in the acquired realm, breaking through the physical limit, and ordinary weapons can't hurt him.

That archer is definitely a strong man in the acquired realm!
"Ahem. I still can't die."

Seeing that Qin Yuan was fine, Qin Yi felt relieved and said with a pale face.

As for the injury, it was just a flesh wound. Although it looked very serious, the body of the acquired state was much stronger than that of ordinary people. As long as they took a little rest for a while, they could recover.

Of course, this is relying on the spear and body protection to resist most of the power, otherwise, even a master of the Houtian realm would not be able to withstand this arrow.

"That's good."

Soon, a group of military doctors came over and carried Qin Yi down for treatment.

"Strengthen the defense of the city, investigate suspicious persons in the city, and trace the origin of the assassin."

Qin Yuan ordered.

Although Bai Qi chased after him, Qin Yuan had a premonition that the archer came prepared and would not be able to catch him if he fled quickly.

As for the origin of the assassin, Qin Yuan knew very well that there were only two parties, the Northern Qiang tribe or the Tiandao Army.

If the Northern Qiang people had such powerful archers, they would definitely follow in the army, and probably would not act alone.

Moreover, it was only last night that Ma Zhenyong's army was wiped out. It is impossible for the Northern Qiang people to receive the news so quickly and launch revenge.

Then, it is likely to be the Heavenly Dao Army, after all, he killed Dai Gongze himself.

The Tiandao Army guessed that Qin Yuan had the strength of the Houtian realm, so they sent archers from the Houtian realm to attack and kill.

If Qin Yi hadn't blocked the arrow for Qin Yuan, Qin Yuan would definitely be able to shoot a big hole in his body.
