Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

Looking at Li Xin's expression, Zhao Che somewhat guessed some of his thoughts.

"My lord, how dare I have such an idea."

Although Li Xin thought so in his heart, he didn't dare to say it directly in front of Zhao Che.

After all, he still doesn't know Zhao Che's temper, and this is an order issued by Zhao Che himself, if Li Xin speaks out and offends Zhao Che, he is asking for trouble.

Although Meng Tian was the real commander-in-chief of the Great Qin expedition against the Huns, it was Zhao Che who personally arranged the plan and the transfer of personnel.

Even Meng Tian agreed with Zhao Che's idea without hesitation, which shows that Zhao Che's arrangement can definitely convince Meng Tian.

"You don't have to worry about Longxi Hou. I asked you to come here in person. Naturally, I have a heavy responsibility for you. If you guessed correctly, I'm afraid there will be Longxi Hou who will be busy with you soon."

"Huh? Young Master, do you have other arrangements?"

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Li Xin became excited. He came here this time to find an opportunity to prove himself.

Coupled with the fact that Zhao Che just led someone to achieve such an incomparable achievement yesterday, this made Li Xin's heart itchy even more, and he wished he could lead his troops to the battlefield now.

"You know, the Marquis of Longxi, why are we confident that we can wipe out the Xiongnu this time?"

"Isn't it because my Great Qin soldiers are strong and powerful?"

"That's part of the reason."

Zhao Che nodded.

Since Li Xin has been stationed in Longxi County, he doesn't know much about the affairs of the court.

Including this expedition against the Huns, what Li Xin knew was only what was on the surface.

As everyone knows, in order to completely wipe out the Xiongnu, Zhao Che and the others prepared for a whole year, from uniting with the Donghu to cutting off the Xiongnu's food.

At this time, there were no outsiders here, so Zhao Che naturally told Li Xin about these things.

"It turns out that the son has prepared so many plans to deal with the Xiongnu. It seems that the Xiongnu will be destroyed this time!"

Li Xin sighed. At first, he thought it was just that Ying Zheng felt that Daqin was stronger now, so he took the initiative to attack. It turned out that there were so many convoluted plans.

"Isn't Marquis Longxi curious about anything? For example, why did we win over Donghu?"

"How does your son know what I think in my heart? Although wooing Donghu is indeed of great help to us in dealing with the Xiongnu, but Donghu is also my enemy of the Great Qin like the Huns. If the Huns are destroyed, Donghu will have to face our Daqin iron cavalry alone. How could King Donghu agree so easily?"

"Yeah, why did King Donghu agree? Is it just because of the benefits promised by me, Daqin?"

Zhao Che said with a smile, he didn't say it clearly, because with Li Xin's mind, it should be easy to guess the reason.

"Could it be that the young master plans to solve it together with Donghu?"

Sure enough, Li Xin quickly showed a dazed expression, he had roughly guessed Zhao Che's plan.

The alliance with Donghu is just a means to paralyze them, so that they dare not intervene in Daqin's dealing with the Xiongnu for the time being, and after the Xiongnu is resolved, they will turn around and deal with Donghu.

But there are doubts in this. Since it is to deal with the Xiongnu, the 30 army in Shangjun is enough, why should the 20 army in Longxi County be transferred?
Moreover, it was transferred secretly, as if someone was hiding it, and who was it hiding?
Li Xin squeezed his beard, suddenly his eyes lit up.

"My lord is planning to let us deal with Donghu?"

Li Xin couldn't wait to express his guess.

"Yes, but not entirely true!"

Zhao Che shook his head.

"Since the Marquis of Longxi also understands that once the Xiongnu is destroyed, Donghu will fall into the situation of facing our Great Qin alone. If you were the king of Donghu, what kind of decision would you make?"

"What if I were Donghu King?"

Li Xin pondered, and made a guess by substituting himself into the identity of Donghu King.

"If I had guessed this, I would definitely turn against the water at the critical moment and unite with the Xiongnu army to give Daqin a fatal blow!"

"anything else?"

"and also?"

Li Xin frowned, what else?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought of the fact that he was secretly mobilized.

"Young Master, what you mean is that since King Donghu knows that our Shangjun has dispatched the whole army to wipe out the Xiongnu, the rear defense must be empty. Maybe he will take this opportunity to attack Shangjun?"

"Not bad!"

Zhao Che nodded in satisfaction, Li Xin's mind was still turning very fast.

However, he reckoned that the king of Donghu might not be able to hold back at this moment. He estimated that the army of Donghu had united with the main force of the Xiongnu, and he was waiting for Meng Tian to take the initiative to send him to his door.

It is even possible that Donghu's army is already on its way to Shangjun.

"Report!"

Sure enough, right after Li Xin finished speaking, a spy ran in from outside.

"Say!"

Li Xin's tone was faintly excited, he had a premonition that his opportunity to make meritorious service might be coming!
"My lord, Lord Hou, a large number of cavalry suddenly appeared on the border of Donghu, and they are fighting towards Shangjun. The estimated number is at least about 20!"

"20 troops?"

Hearing this number, even Zhao Che couldn't help being a little speechless.

The current Donghu is still very strong, and even faintly overwhelmed a Hun.

Since King Donghu's army appeared here, it means that he has reached an alliance with the Xiongnu, and he probably sent a lot of people to deal with the main force of Shangjun.

And under such circumstances, an army of 20 can still be gathered, even if it is not all elite, it is enough to prove the strength of Donghu and the determination of King Donghu.

"Explore again!"

Before Meng Tian left, he handed over the guarding of Shangjun to Li Xin, so he naturally had the power to issue orders.

After waving the spies to leave, Li Xin asked about Zhao Che's plans again.

"My lord, if I want to wipe out these Donghu troops, what do you think I should do?"

Zhao Che laughed when he heard the words, it seems that Li Xin's ambition is really not ordinary.

But this kind of thinking is just right, anyway, after cleaning up these Donghu army, Li Xin will lead his troops to directly enter the Donghu royal court.

"If you want to completely annihilate the opponent, you must let the opponent willingly slip into our trap. This is called inviting you into the urn!"

"Please enter the urn?"

Li Xin asked with some doubts.

"Look at Shangjun, besides the 20 troops brought by Marquis Longxi and the soldiers left behind, are there other people?"

"I understand, what the young master means is, let us continue to hide, take the initiative to let Donghu's army enter Shangjun, and then directly solve it in Shangjun City, right?"

"Since Long Xihou understands, let the wounded soldiers in the city retreat temporarily!"

Although there were no other innocent people in Shangjun City, there were still those wounded soldiers under Zhao Che's command. In order to avoid the great battle affecting them, Zhao Che naturally prepared another location long ago.

"It seems that the son has already planned everything!"

Seeing Zhao Che orderly arrange the evacuation of everyone, Li Xin couldn't help sighing.

Donghu King and Xiongnu Shanyu were really calculated to death, and their every step was within Zhao Che's plan.

The two of them were still counting the money for Zhao Che after being sold.
