275: Calm and composed Xing Daorong

“Colonel, it’s been scouted; the people ahead are from the Xiongnu people Right Wise King,” said Commandant Gao Bin.

“Right Wise King, is he that impressive?” Xing Daorong asked, picking his nose.

“Uh… this…” Gao Bin didn’t know how to answer for a moment.

“How does he compare to King Baiyang?” Xing Daorong asked.

“There’s a huge, huge gap. The Right Wise King is much more powerful than King Baiyang.” Gao Bin shook his head with a solemn expression. “Although they are both Xiongnu people kings, King Baiyang, King Loufan, and other kings are all Subordinate to the Right Wise King.”

“This is quite a big fish then?” Xing Daorong’s spirits lifted.

“Yes, below the Xiongnu people Chanyu are the four corners of the Xiongnu people, namely the Left Wise King, Right Wise King, Left Guli King, and Right Guli King. Furthermore, the Right Wise King is from the Luan Di clan, the same clan as Touman Chanyu,” Gao Bin explained.

He had previously been under Dong Zhuo, so he understood the information about the Xiongnu people high command even better than an ordinary Xiongnu people.

Because even though Dong Zhuo usually seemed carefree, he placed great importance on intelligence!

“What is his strength?” Xing Daorong asked after understanding.

“This humble general does not know, but This humble general can confirm that he is definitely not weak.

Because the Xiongnu people respect strength, one would not sit in that position if one’s strength was not formidable,” Gao Bin said.

“That’s not necessarily true. Wuluoli, the prince captured by my lord earlier, wasn’t he also a prince, managing so many people?” Xing Daorong chuckled.

“Uh… This humble general doesn’t know about that,” Gao Bin said, a little ashamed.

Just then, Commandant Li Mu rode over in a hurry, his expression urgent: “Colonel, guess who I saw!”

“Who, Li Mu, who did you find?” Xing Daorong asked with a smile.

“Wuluoli! The Xiongnu people’s little prince, Wuluoli!” Li Mu exclaimed, his face full of pleasant surprise!

“Really or fake?!” Xing Daorong asked. How could Wuluoli arrive just as he was mentioned!

“Although This humble general didn’t see the person, This humble general saw the same banner as when Wuluoli was captured!

Moreover, This humble general also captured a Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier, who said they came from Beihai and were following Prince Wuluoli!” Li Mu said, his face full of excitement!

“How far are they from us?” Xing Daorong asked, his eyes gleaming.

“They said Wuluoli is fifty li away from them, with less than two hundred thousand people, while the main Army is a hundred li beyond them!” Li Mu said with a smile. This was simply a heaven-sent opportunity!

“Let’s move, Colonel! This is an opportunity not to be missed, and it won’t come again!” Gao Bin suddenly said, constantly egging on Xing Daorong with his eyes.

“Wait, you’re already a Commandant, why are you still so impetuous? You need to be calm and collected when facing things, understand?” Xing Daorong interrupted him, took out his communication token, and said, “I need to inform the Lord first.”

After trying a few times and hearing no sound, Xing Daorong handed it to a personal Soldier: “Tian Liang, did you hear everything I just said?”

“Subordinate heard it,” Tian Liang nodded.

“Then you run back now, and transmit a message with the communication token every so often until the Lord hears it,” Xing Daorong said.

“Understood!” Tian Liang took the token and spurred his horse back.

“Li Mu, send a troop of cavalry to lie in ambush behind us. Make sure to find out how far the Xiongnu people Right Wise King’s troops are from Wuluoli,” Xing Daorong said in a deep voice.

He was afraid of falling into an enemy trap again, like before.

“Understood!” Li Mu replied, then turned and rushed back.

Meanwhile, Xing Daorong continued to advance unhurriedly, and the skirmishes between scouts were still playing out… “Speak! Which part of the Qin Army are you from!” a Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier demanded fiercely.

“I am your father!” a Qin Army Cavalry Soldier cursed, spitting blood and lying on the ground.

“Damn it, you’re asking for death!” The Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier stabbed him in the thigh with a knife.

“Ah!” The Qin Army Cavalry Soldier screamed, his face contorted with pain and extremely pale.

“Will you speak or not?

Actually, I like Qin People the most, because their hearts are very tasty.” The Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier chuckled sinisterly, licking his lips at the Qin Army Cavalry Soldier, as if the person in front of him was a delicious meal.

The Qin Army Cavalry Soldier was already unable to speak due to the pain, cold sweat covered his forehead, and he looked at the Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier in front of him with terror.

“I’ll give you one last chance. Will you speak or not?” The Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier asked, holding up his scimitar and licking his crimson lips.

The Qin Soldiers barely overcame his immense fear, still refusing to speak.

Seeing this, the Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier smiled, took two steps forward, stripped off his armor, raised his scimitar, and prepared to stab him in the heart.

“Wait!” A young Xiongnu people noble spoke to stop him, then asked the Qin Army Cavalry Soldier who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed: “You are a White Horse Righteous Cavalry, right? Do you know Lin Yue?”

The Xiongnu Soldiers stopped their actions upon seeing this, quietly awaiting the young noble’s instructions.

The Qin Army Cavalry Soldier suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the young noble who spoke with some disbelief.

“You… are you Wuluoli?” the Qin Army Cavalry Soldier asked weakly after a long hesitation.

“You know me?

Then you must be Lin Yue’s man. Tell me, where is Lin Yue?” Wuluoli’s spirits lifted, and he rode two steps forward to ask.

“Hahaha, I didn’t expect to see you here. I used to guard the gate for you,” the Qin Army Cavalry Soldier laughed miserably, feeling that fate was playing tricks on him.

“Oh? So that’s how it is.

The White Horse Righteous Cavalry are ahead, so Lin Yue must be among them, right?” Wuluoli’s face flushed, and he quickly changed the subject, trying to gloss over his embarrassing past.

“The general is not here,” the Qin Soldiers shook his head.

“General? Wasn’t he just a Commandant?” Wuluoli asked. He remembered that Lin Yue was only a Commandant back then. How did he become a general in just half a year?

“Haha, all of this is thanks to you!” The Qin Army Cavalry Soldier burst into laughter, his chest heaving, followed by violent coughing, but he still laughed so happily.

Wuluoli asked the Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier: “What does this sentence mean?”

He had been learning qin language for the past six months, but some more profound phrases he still didn’t quite understand.

Although the Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier was a bit confused, he still whispered: “It means it’s all your credit that he became a general.”

Wuluoli’s face flushed again, and he said softly: “Good translation. No need to translate next time.”

“Yes.” The Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier was utterly bewildered, not knowing how he had offended the little prince.

“Then who are the troops ahead now?” Wuluoli asked again.

“It’s our Colonel Xing Daorong!” The Qin Army Cavalry Soldier said weakly.

“Xing Daorong? Is that the somewhat foolish fat man?” Wuluoli asked after a moment of recollection.

The Qin Army Cavalry Soldier shook his head blankly, then nodded.

“Alright, thank you. Do you have any last wishes? I can fulfill them,” Wuluoli said with a smile.

“Give me a quick death,” the Qin Army Cavalry Soldier said, full of hope.

“Good.” Wuluoli nodded, signaling the Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier to give him a quick death.

Seeing this, the Qin Army Cavalry Soldier finally felt relieved and closed his eyes.

The sound of blood gushing out rang, and Wuluoli nodded, saying: “Send someone to throw him on the path the Qin Army must take.”

“Yes!” The Xiongnu Cavalry Soldier nodded in response.

“A Leng, don’t touch him. Leave him a complete corpse,” Wuluoli glared at him.

“Your Highness, I was just scaring him. I really don’t eat people,” A Leng now looked as wronged as a wilted eggplant.

“Army, speed up!” Wuluoli ignored him and directly roared.
