As a general who expanded territory and fought on the frontier, Xue Rengui naturally hoped to lead troops to fight against foreign tribes and conquer a great empire for his lord.

Last time, Liu Wei did not send Xue Rengui to attack Juyan Lake, but instead chose to exchange for Di Qing in the system shop.

Liu Wei placed high hopes on Di Qing, hoping that he could make a name for himself at Juyan Lake.

With his outstanding personal qualities, he established a foothold between the desert and the Western Regions, preparing for future advances into either the northern desert or the Western Regions.

Juyan City is guarded by troops from the Liangzhou Governor's Office of the Han Dynasty, so it is not convenient for Liu Wei to attack it directly at the moment.

Di Qing volunteered again, saying that he could capture Juyan Lake and manage the area with just one hundred prisoners.

Therefore, Liu Wei encouraged Di Qing to act boldly.

As fate would have it, the Xianbei cavalry from Hexi invaded again.

Faced with so many alien troops, Di Qing only had a hundred men, so he definitely couldn't make any progress, unless Di Qing also used a bug.

"Rest assured, my lord, the combination of the cavalry battalion and the Xuanjia cavalry, heavy cavalry and light cavalry, is enough to crush any foreign cavalry."

When Xue Rengui learned that Liu Wei had decided to send him on the expedition, his excitement was palpable.

The equipment of the 4,000 cavalry battalion is all of blue quality, far ahead of the competition.

On the Gobi Desert south of the Yellow River, facing 50,000 Jie people was nothing short of a one-sided massacre.

The Jie people, who were active on the Ordos Plateau, were wiped out by Xue Rengui, which also gave Liu Wei a chance to refresh the system shop.

These 1,900 Xuanjia cavalry were equipped with gear that was ahead of their time.

His main weapon was a horse spear, his short weapon was a horizontal sword, and he wore a full set of bright armor.

It's important to understand that one rider is equivalent to a thousand people.

Today, the coordination between the Xuanjia Cavalry and the Cavalry Battalion is like that of an aircraft carrier battle group.

It's uncertain how many attacks those 40,000 Xianbei cavalry could withstand.

Xue Rengui led this aircraft carrier fleet on a mission to slaughter the Hu cavalry.

"Yes, judging from the weather, another blizzard is coming soon."

“The Xianbei people lived in the northern desert and had a more acute sense of the weather than we did. No wonder they came south to plunder at this time of year.”

"General Xue, we must act swiftly and decisively, annihilating this Xianbei cavalry force before the blizzard arrives."

"At that time, Juyan Lake will be placed under the jurisdiction of Commandant Di. You should return to Wuyuan as soon as possible."

Liu Wei nodded and explained everything.

"Rest assured, my lord, a mere 40,000 barbarian cavalry is no problem at all!"

Xue Rengui bowed and accepted the order, then hurried away as if afraid that Liu Wei might change his mind.

Watching Xue Rengui's departing figure, Liu Wei shook his head and smiled bitterly.

These 40,000 Xianbei cavalrymen, if they encountered Xue Rengui, who was fond of framing and killing people, would probably suffer a lot.

It's unclear what Di Qing and his hundred prisoners are doing at this moment.

Since the Imperial Guards came to report their whereabouts, the Imperial Guards who returned one after another seemed to have lost contact with Di Qing.

Di Qing, you're a green-quality general I bought for three million gold coins, don't ruin him!

Liu Wei muttered to himself.

"Your Highness, Chen Ji and his group have been imprisoned for several days, and they keep demanding to see you!"

At this moment, Wei Ji came to see Liu Wei.

Yao Guangxiao wanted to personally inspect the construction site of the new Wuyuan City and also to check on the progress of the straight road from Yunzhong to Linrong.

Therefore, after discussing with Liu Wei, he disappeared without a trace.

Chen Ji, Cai Yong, and their entourage were then handed over to Wei Kai's men for safekeeping.

There are assassins among their followers; how can they be let off so easily?

Locking them up for a period of time is also a way to temper their character.

As expected, Chen Ji was the first to lose patience and wanted to see Liu Wei.

"As for Chen Ji, since he is the military supervisor of the Northern Protectorate, you should send him to General Xue to fight alongside the army."

"Let's see how General Xue wiped out the invading barbarian cavalry."

"At the same time, it also made him see clearly that Juyan Lake was not defended by the Liangzhou Governor's Office and fell into the hands of the Xianbei people. It was we who took it back!"

Liu Wei did not intend to meet with Chen Ji, but instead sent him directly to Xue Rengui.

Although Chen Ji was an official under the General's office, he was now assigned to serve as the military supervisor of Liu Wei's Northern Protectorate.

However, Liu Wei believed that he was also a man of courage, especially after going to the battlefield.

Seeing Xue Rengui lead his mighty cavalry to annihilate the invading foreign tribes one by one, Chen Ji will gradually be influenced and assimilated.

Then, once the Embroidered Uniform Guard brought Chen Qun over, the Chen family would steadily serve Liu Wei.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Wei Ji said, bowing.

"How are Cai Yong and his daughter?" Liu Wei then asked.

“Cai Yilang has made no move. These past few days he has been eating and drinking as usual, seemingly letting himself be disposed of.”

Wei Kai frowned. "However, his daughter seems to be very interested in the prince. She asks her subordinates about the prince's movements all the time."

What!

Liu Wei was speechless. Could it be that he had developed feelings for her after giving her artificial respiration that day?

"What did you say to him?" Liu Wei asked casually.

“How could I possibly reveal even a single piece of information about the Prince to her? How could I casually tell her about the Prince’s movements?” Wei Kai immediately said solemnly.

"Since she wants to know, you can tell me anything!" Liu Wei said with a smile.

"ah!"

Wei Ji looked thoughtful. Could it be that the prince has taken a fancy to this woman and wants to take her as a concubine?

Seeing Wei Kai's smug expression, Liu Wei knew he had misunderstood, but didn't point it out, simply saying:

"Tell me, I've recently been compiling a set of books to enlighten and develop the minds of children in the three prefectures..."
