Qin Ze narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the road ahead with a calm expression.
Six days have passed since I left Asahi Castle.
On the day he killed Cha Yuanzhen, he already had 60 points per second. It took him two days to travel from the North Ku Grassland to Chaori City. Adding the six days he has accumulated so far, it has taken him a total of eight days.
The points have accumulated to over 40 million.
This means that exchanging for level 5 troops would allow you to acquire an army of over 200,000.
Moreover, this is before even leaving Beiliang. Once we leave Beiliang, we will accumulate even more points.
For this reason, Qin Ze was not in a hurry. This process did not require a rapid march; he could simply leave Beiliang slowly.
Thinking about this, Qin Ze shook his head, a mocking smile appearing on his lips.
He still remembered the day he left the capital for Beiliang. At that time, he only had eight hundred personal guards. He rushed all the way, trying his best to get to Beiliang as soon as possible.
It would be impossible not to feel fear during those ten days.
Now, I can finally walk on this land with peace of mind again, and this time, I will no longer feel any fear.
This time, strictly speaking, it wasn't a proactive attack, but rather the start of a return journey.
The capital city is, after all, my homeland.
This time, it's just a return to homeland. Of course, those iron hooves will surely trample the palace and drag the high and mighty empress down from her throne!
Qin Ze looked up at the army. Everyone was riding a fine horse, holding weapons, and looking calm.
However, the number of troops was less than before. Qin Ze left 50,000 troops in the Beiku Grassland. After all, the Beiku Grassland borders other countries, so it is necessary to leave some troops to guard it. Wei Qing stayed in Beiliang this time and was in charge of command.
With him leading 50,000 troops, even if someone dared to invade, they would not be able to conquer the grasslands in a short time.
And if anyone dares to invade, well...
Let's increase the points again!
——
As time went by, it soon became evening.
After the Beginning of Winter, it gets dark early, and the temperature drops sharply at night. Without Qin Ze's instructions, Yue Fei had already ordered the army to stop advancing, set up camp, and rest early.
Thanks to the previous annihilation of the Hu Ma, Qin Ze took over all of the Hu Ma army's supplies.
For the past few days, we've been using Hu Ma's tents and eating Hu Ma's food.
Compared to before when they could only eat grains, the soldiers' food rations improved significantly after the defeat of the Hu and Ma tribes.
Huma's animal husbandry was thriving, and there was plenty of meat in the military camp. Of course, this meat was all dried, but in this world, having dried meat to eat was already a good thing.
One tent after another was erected, and some soldiers brought back a small amount of firewood, which was then used to light bonfires in the camp.
As the campfire flickered, Qin Ze sat on the ground with a fur coat on it. He warmed his somewhat cold hands by the fire and pondered quietly.
The winters in Beiliang are extremely cold. In just over a month, or even less, the land will be covered in ice and snow, becoming a truly frigid place.
After leaving Beiliang, the temperature would rise as they headed towards the capital, since the capital was in the south. This was actually a good thing for them as they prepared to face the imperial army.
Just as he was deep in thought, a soldier brought him food.
Qin Ze casually took the meat and chewed on the somewhat dry, hard dried meat over the warm campfire. The meat was a bit tough to chew, so Qin Ze picked up the water bag next to the fire and gulped down a few mouthfuls.
My throat was filled with water, and I finally felt a little better. Just then, a man strode over and plopped down next to the campfire.
"My lord, you went to wipe out the Hu horses without me, and I was really feeling restless, haha."
The person who arrived was none other than Dian Wei, who had been transferred from Jubeichuan by Qin Ze.
With no war in Northern Liang, there was no need for this general to guard Jubeichuan; the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were sufficient.
Of course, besides these soldiers, the people of Beiliang are now completely devoted to Qin Ze and are full of gratitude. Before setting off, countless people wanted to join the army, but Qin Ze naturally refused them.
He didn't want to spend any more time training them into soldiers; the points he could get each day were already enough.
Let them stay in Beiliang in peace.
Watching Dian Wei happily munching on a strip of meat, Qin Ze asked casually, "Where's Huo Qubing?"
Dian Wei swallowed the meat strip in his mouth and immediately replied, "He told me to stay by the lord's side at all times, while he himself led a team to scout ahead."
"The point is to prevent problems before they occur."
After he finished speaking, Qin Ze nodded without saying anything more.
After the soldiers finished eating, they began to go into their tents to rest, but Qin Ze did not move and continued to tend the fire.
Just then, a noise suddenly came from ahead. Qin Ze turned his head and saw Huo Qubing leading several cavalrymen. Behind his horse, a man dressed in coarse cloth was tied up.
He had a rag stuffed in his mouth and lay listlessly on the horse's back.
"Hoo."
Upon reaching Qin Ze, Huo Qubing dismounted and pulled the man off the horse.
With a thud, the man fell to the ground, letting out a muffled groan.
"My lord, this man came riding from the front and acted suspiciously. I captured him, and he said he came specifically to see you, so I brought him here."
"His weapon has been removed by me," Huo Qubing said respectfully.
Qin Ze remained seated on the ground, not moving, but simply nodded slightly, his gaze fixed on the man.
