Cao Wenzhao had just arrived, and he happened to intercept the thousands of rogues who had fled eastward.

By the time Qin Chuan and Cao Bianjiao arrived, the battle had basically ended, and only a small number of Emperor Guan's troops were still chasing the scattered rogues around.

Cao Wenzhao was interrogating the captives, and when he heard that Qin Chuan was coming, he greeted him with a smile.

Although the two met for the first time, they didn't have too many restraints, Cao Wenzhao, like Cao Bianjiao, was not a pedantic person, Qin Chuan's straightforward but point-to-point personality also had an appetite for Cao Wenzhao.

After chatting for a long time, Cao Wenzhao introduced him to a white-faced and beardless middle-aged man, Liu Zhongyun.

Liu Zhongyun has received Qin Chuan's silver, and he has a very good relationship with Liu Wenzhong, the Datong supervisor, and the most important thing is that this person is a smart person.

Therefore, as soon as they met, Liu Zhongyun was very polite to Qin Chuan, congratulated and praised the horse, and asked Qin Chuan how many heads he had beheaded in this battle and how many thieves he had captured.

Qin Chuan knew what he wanted, but he didn't say anything, only that he hadn't counted it for the time being.

Liu Zhongyun didn't ask any further, but praised Qin Chuan with a smile for his wisdom and bravery, and the good generals in the world.

While chatting, everyone went to Zhongjialing, Cao Wenzhao was going to camp there tonight, and Qin Chuan was going to share the spoils with him there.

All the captives were driven into the ravine next to Zhongjialing, with thorns and vines on both sides, with Cao Wenzhao's Guanning Iron Cavalry on one side and Qinchuan's Guandi Army on the other.

As for the money and food, most of them were in Qinchuan, and they were pulled back to the border mountains early.

When Luo Daniu was drinking with Qinchuan Shangzhongjialing, he told him the counted figures, more than 800 stones of grain, 3,000 taels of gold, 6,400 taels of silver, a sack of gold and silver jewelry, 48 mules, 102 pack horses, 400 war horses, 130 pieces of armor of all kinds, and countless knives, guns and clubs.

Qin Chuan estimated that there was still a lot of money on the more than 1,300 liukou old camps that were killed and captured in the Zhongjialing ravine, and the gold and silver combined, there must be a few thousand taels.

At that time, he didn't let Emperor Guan's army clean up the battlefield, because Cao Bianjiao was there, if it wasn't for the other party's ambush here, he wouldn't be able to intercept the more than 1,000 people, and he wanted to befriend Cao Bianjiao, so it didn't matter if he had any money.

And the horses there, he didn't move a single one.

However, most of the food is in his own hands, because the rogues left it on the road when they fled.

It is enough to have food.

Zhongjialing, under an old camphor tree.

Qin Chuan, Luo Daniu, Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao, and Liu Zhongyun sat around a large cauldron, in which a large piece of horse meat had just been cut off the battlefield was boiled, and next to it was the wine that Qin Chuan and Cao Wenzhao had taken out.

Qin Chuan also took out his tobacco, temporarily made a few pipes out of wood for a few people, and occasionally took a sip after eating meat and drinking.

To the west is Qinchuan's red-clothed attendants and the tiger and leopard camp, and to the east is Cao Wenzhao's Guanning Iron Cavalry, which is encamping overnight.

When he was full of food and drink, and was wearing a cigarette, Liu Zhongyun said coldly: "Brother Qin, I don't know what to do with those seizures." ”

Hearing this, Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao both subconsciously looked towards Qin Chuan.

The largest official position here is Cao Wenzhao, a small guerrilla general in Qin Chuan, who is three levels lower than him.

Liu Zhongyun is a person who can talk to the emperor, can go straight to the sky, and has the heaviest weight.

However, they all had to wait for Qin Chuan to speak for himself.

Qin Chuan knocked his pipe and said with a smile: "Two elder brothers, one of Qin's coarse people, the good news of today's battle, I bothered the two elder brothers to write it." ”

"Except for Li Biaofeng and his more than 80 heads, all the prisoners and heads are at the disposal of the two elder brothers, and the money and horses seized in the Zhongjialing ravine are also at the disposal of the two elder brothers, in addition, I will transport all the weapons captured in the past two days to the two elder brothers tomorrow."

"Qin only needs two things, one is those rogues who were coerced in, especially women and children, and the other is the money and food that Qin seized before."

Hearing his words, Cao Wenzhao raised his eyebrows slightly, and his face was a little surprised.

Liu Zhongyun looked at Qin Chuan with a puzzled face.

Cao Bianjiao couldn't help but ask, "Brother Qin, what do you want those captive women and children to do?" ”

Qin Chuan smiled and said truthfully: "I didn't do anything, I just felt that they were pitiful, and those hungry people who were coerced, if they were killed, it would be too cruel, I believe that Brother Cao would not be able to do it, if they were released, they would not be eaten or clothed, they would either be starved to death, or they would be coerced by other thieves, and they would continue to wander around, and eventually they would also die in war or starvation." ”

"You also know that today's Daming people are not living well, there are thousands of miles of red land, there are wastelands everywhere that no one cultivates, and there are many wastelands in Jingle County and Lan County, I want to lead them back there, reclaim farmland for them, and live and work in peace and contentment."

"I want that food so they can get there alive."

Hearing his words, Cao Bianjiao slapped his thigh and gave Qin Chuan a thumbs up: "Brother Qin is benevolent and righteous, a true hero." ”

"Hehe, I'm just doing a little bit for the people."

Liu Zhongyun suddenly asked again: "Our family takes the liberty to ask, how much grain did Brother Qin pay?" ”

"Eight hundred stones."

Qin Chuan did not hide it in the slightest.

"So little?" Liu Zhongyun frowned.

Luo Da Niu, who had been silent, threw a piece of meat and bone on the ground, and said in a rough voice: "Do you want to go and count it?" One more stone of grain, and I will eat it in front of you. ”

Qin Chuan motioned for him not to speak, and smiled apologetically: "Father-in-law Liu, my brother's temperament is thicker than mine, don't be surprised, but, Qin's seized grain is indeed only eight hundred stones. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, hahaha." Liu Zhongyun's face was a little embarrassed and haha.

Cao Wenzhao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke: "Brother Qin, I can't hide it, there are only three days of grain and grass left in our army, can you support one or two of your eight hundred stone grains?" ”

Cao Bianjiao also sighed and said: "Brother Qin, we have indeed been short of food recently, as you know, our guest army is fighting in the guest land, the most difficult thing is the supply of grain and grass, and Lord Futai does not have much grain and grass, the imperial court ordered various states and counties to prepare grain and grass for us, and the local government is often perfunctory, and some even do not let us enter the city, hindering everywhere and deliberately making things difficult." ”

"Well, just last month, we suppressed bandits in the east of Xinzhou, and when there was a shortage of food in the army, we went to Dingxiang, Mengxian and other places to beg for food and grass.

"Hmmm......"

Qin Chuan pondered for a moment and said, "Three hundred stones, how about it?" ”

Cao Wenzhao solemnly clenched his fists and arched his hands, and said: "Thank you, Brother Qin, for the grace of helping food, Cao will remember it." ”

"Brother Cao is polite, so let's do it, I'll give you another thousand taels of silver, when the military rations are not enough, take the silver to buy grain in nearby states and counties, those gentry have a lot of grain, if you really can't buy it......"

Qin Chuan paused deliberately, and then said: "At the time of the national crisis, I have always used a knife to get food from all the gentry who hoarded Juqi. ”

"Hahaha, thank you, brother, thank you."

Cao Wenzhao didn't mention the matter of the gentry clan, and only gratefully hugged his fist at Qin Chuan again.

"Come, a cup to Brother Qin."

Liu Zhongyun smiled and picked up the wine bag.

Cao Wenzhao's uncle and nephew also picked up the wine bag, solemnly thanked Qin Chuan again, and then raised his head to drink.

The wine was drunk until midnight, Qin Chuan chatted with them for a long time, chatting about everything in the north and south, and the more they talked, the more surprised Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao and Liu Zhongyun.

Because, Qin Chuan knows too much.

In addition to the many uncorroborable observations, there are also many amazing things that have happened recently or not.

For example, natural disasters will continue for many years, the plague will spread wildly, Huang Taiji will send troops to capture Lushunkou, Lin Dan Khan will starve to death in Qinghai because of the lack of cattle and sheep, and Huang Taiji will continue to send troops to attack him until the rest of his army is fully absorbed.

These things are all unprovable, but Qin Chuan said them reasonably, making it difficult for Cao Wenzhao, Liu Zhongyun and others to refute.

Qin Chuan knew that he couldn't drink it anymore, and if he drank it any longer, he would get drunk and utter more amazing words.

So, in the middle of the night, he got up to say goodbye, and under the escort of the red-clothed attendants and the tiger and leopard battalion, he returned to the border mountain with Luo Daniu.

As soon as I returned to the mountain, I saw a short man leaning on the door of the pier, and when I got closer, it turned out to be Li Dingguo.

Li Dingguo seems to have waited for a long time, and he has already fallen asleep.

As soon as he saw Qin Chuan coming back, he hurriedly stood up and said hesitantly, "Can you let go of my brothers?" ”

"Huh?"

Qin Chuan was stunned: "Sun Kewang, Ai Nengqi, Liu Wenxiu?" ”

"That's right."

"Hmmm......"

Qin Chuanguang remembered drinking and forgot about the three of them.

In addition to Sun Kewang, Ai Nengqi and Liu Wenxiu are still young, and I don't know if these three people are dead.
