Beat away the Hun pursuers who came to chase and kill, Meng Tian asked Xue Bin to continue to chase people for a distance, and then inquired about the situation in the Heishui camp by the way, and came back to report to him.

Meng Li, Zhang Kui, and the Qin soldiers who escaped with them did not participate in the battle just now, and they rested on the periphery of the battle between the two armies. Meng Li saw Meng Tian coming on horseback, stood up and greeted Zhang Kui.

"General. Meng Li said to Meng Tian, and then he turned sideways and introduced Zhang Kui behind him to Meng Tian: "This is General Zhang Kui Zhang of the Heishui Battalion. General Zhang, this is the commander of our Mengjia Army, and the current generalissimo of the Qin State, General Meng Tianmeng. ”

Zhang Kui is just a small general, it stands to reason that even if he sees a general of Meng Tian's status, he is not even qualified to come forward to salute. However, at this time, the man who was named the Qin Army's War Spirit stood in front of him, Zhang Kui's face was a little red with excitement, he knelt on the ground with a trembling voice, and said loudly: "The villain Heishui Battalion General Zhang Kui visited General Meng Tian. ”

Meng Tian looked at Zhang Kui, who was covered in blood, and Meng Li nodded to him without leaving a trace. Meng Tian walked up to Zhang Kui, stretched out his hands to help him up from the ground, and said with a smile: "You are General Zhang Kui, I have heard that there is a general named Zhang Kui in the border army, who is brave in battle, and the strength of one person can be used as a hundred people." I didn't expect to see it today, General Zhang is really as strong as the legend, this is the blessing of my Great Qin border army, hahaha......"

Listening to Meng Tian's words, Zhang Kui's face turned even redder, but fortunately, his skin was a little tanned by the sun on the border, and he couldn't show it at this time. Zhang Kui was helped up from the ground by Meng Tian, lowered his head and said with some shame: "Don't make fun of the villain, the villain is just a person who makes mistakes and wears crimes, and he was sent here, where is there such a powerful thing that the general said, the general really tormented me when he said this." ”

"Hey, what is General Zhang talking about, I have seen General Zhang's performance on the battlefield today. If it weren't for General Zhang, you calmly commanded under the current situation of the great enemy, I'm afraid that before I arrived, the Heishui battalion would have been beaten down by the Huns. General, I have an idea that I don't know if to say or not?" Meng Li patted Zhang Kui's shoulder, and then said to Meng Tian.

Meng Tian nodded and said, "It's okay for the eldest brother to speak directly. ”

"Okay, then I'll say it. Meng Li glanced at Zhang Kui, and then continued to say to Meng Tian: "Now I estimate that the Heishui Battalion has fallen into the hands of the Huns, and General Zhang can't go back, I don't think General Zhang is as good as you, why don't you join our Mengjia army?"

After Meng Li finished speaking, Meng Tian also looked at Zhang Kui with expectation in his eyes.

Hearing that someone invited his general to join the most elite Mengjia army in the Great Qin Empire, the soldiers of the Heishui Battalion who escaped with Zhang Kui also showed excitement on their faces. What kind of place is that of the Mengjia Army? The elite of the elite of the million-strong army of the Great Qin Empire not only has a much better armor than other armies, but also has a much higher salary than other teams.

Zhang Kui suddenly heard Meng Li's invitation to join the Meng family's army, and he couldn't believe it. He turned his head to look at Meng Li, who was also smiling at him. Then Zhang Kui looked at Meng Tian again, and he found that Meng Tian was also looking at him with interest. Zhang Kui felt that this was not a dream, this was true, he could really join the Meng family army, and he was personally invited by the deputy commander of the Meng family army.

"How about it, are you willing to join me and become a member of my 300,000 Mengjia soldiers?" asked Meng Tian as he opened his mouth to Zhang Kui.

"This ......" Zhang Kui was a little hesitant, joining the Mengjia Army was the dream of every Qin soldier, but waiting for the day to really come to him, Zhang Kui was a little hesitant. fantasy

Zhang Kui didn't have much time to think, he lowered his head and thought about it for a while, and then seemed to have made up his mind. He raised his head and looked at Meng Tian, and then spoke: "Back to the general's words, the villain hasn't thought about it clearly now, can you ask the general to give the villain some time, at least wait for the villain to retake the Heishui battalion from the Huns." ”

Zhang Kui's answer made Meng Tian very satisfied, but it made Meng Li feel a little surprised, but he didn't expect that there were still people in the army of the Qin State who didn't want to join the Meng family's army, and it was his own deputy commander who had the strictest selection of people to personally invite him.

Meng Tian snorted, and he said: "Okay, I can give you time, but well, the Heishui Camp is not just a place for you alone, he is the territory of our Qin State, and we naturally will not let it fall into the hands of the Huns." Brother Meng, pick out two thousand people, these people let Zhang Kui lead, let's go back to Yancheng to repair first, and then we will make plans after bringing the Tanma back. ”

"Yes, General. ”

Not long after returning to Rock City, Xue Bin and the people who had gone to inquire about the news of the Blackwater Camp also returned, and they reported a bad news to Meng Tian. The Xiongnu army attacking the Heishui camp this time was from the Kazakun tribe, their big leader was called Tarim Sangkun, the second leader was Tarim Toji, and the two of them were brothers. The reason why Tarim Sangkun dared to attack the Heishui camp with such fanfare this time was to avenge his younger brother, who was the leader of the Hun cavalry that had slaughtered Anning Village under Meng Tian the day before yesterday.

Tarim Sangkun thought that the Qin army of the Heishui camp learned of his brother's whereabouts, and then the army surrounded and killed his younger brother, so he personally led the army to the Heishui camp to take revenge. After defeating the Heishui Battalion, although the general of the Qin army was not killed, the geographical location of the Heishui Battalion was very special, so this was also a kind of gain.

However, Tarim Sangkun's army was soon attacked by the Qin army stationed in Blackwater City, because the specific number of enemy troops was not known, Blackwater City sent a total of 10,000 people to the Blackwater Camp to support this time. However, they did not go to the Heishui camp, and fought with the Huns on the way. The two teams won and lost each other, and the casualties were not very heavy, and after seeing that the support was unsuccessful, the reinforcements of Blackwater City chose to retreat.

After listening to the military situation about the Blackwater Battalion, Meng Tian frowned. As the Huns thought, the geographical location of the Heishui camp is somewhat special, it is stuck in the middle of Rock City and Heishui City, and there is a completely unfortified border line of Qin State for nearly 300 miles between the two cities. If the Huns really used the Blackwater Camp as their camp, then they could send men and horses to enter and leave the territory of Qin at will, and they could also send troops to harass Yancheng and Heishui City at the same time. As the saying goes, you can attack, you can defend when you retreat, and that's nothing more.

Although Blackwater City does not occupy any dangerous terrain, it is surrounded by grassland wasteland, and the cavalry and infantry are not easy to attack, so it really takes a lot of effort to take back the Blackwater Battalion from the hands of the Huns.

Zhang Kui also sat in Meng Tian's tent, although he only sat at the end of the many generals of the Meng family's army. After listening to the military intelligence report of the Heishui Battalion, Zhang Kui also knew that as long as a considerable number of soldiers and horses were stationed in the Heishui Battalion, it would indeed not be easy to defeat it if he really wanted to.

Zhang Kui stood up and said, "General, the villain has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. ”

Meng Tian looked at Zhang Kui, nodded at him, and said, "General Zhang is the guard of the Heishui Battalion, and there is no one here who is more suitable to speak than you, so the general can say whatever he wants." ”

Zhang Kui hugged his fists at all the generals of the Mengjia army in the tent to show his respect, and then he looked at Meng Tian and said: "General, the Heishui Battalion is very important, if it really falls into the hands of the Huns, then it will not only be very dangerous to my Great Qin border army, but also to the people in Great Qin." The Huns occupied the Heishui Battalion, and they could drive straight into the hinterland of our Qin State, and they could also come to attack Rock City and Heishui City at any time, so the villain hoped that the general could send troops as soon as possible and take the Heishui Battalion back as soon as possible. ”
