Chapter 18: The Qin people rest
There are unpredictable circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck.
Just when the Qin people were building the city, the captured Rong Di Tanma was not idle, he had been thinking about how to escape from the control of the Qin people, and now the opportunity has finally come.
Of course, it has been locked up for more than a month, and the Qin nobles have long forgotten that there is such a great god staying in their city.
A dilapidated military camp west of Inuqiu City, where Feng Rong's Tanma leader was imprisoned.
At night, because Qinyi was basically completed, the soldiers of the Qin army who guarded it also went to celebrate with wine, although there were soldiers on duty at night. But the others went to drink, and left them here to patrol the night, and everyone felt a little uncomfortable, and after a few turns, the soldiers on duty went back to sleep in the house.
You drink, I sleep, who is afraid of whom!
At this time, Feng Rong Tanma, who had been detained for more than a month, opened his eyes. This is a rare opportunity, and if you don't take advantage of this opportunity to escape, I am afraid that there will be no more opportunities in the future.
Tanma got up and lay down in front of the cell door and looked out, good fellow, there was no one in the huge barracks.
Feng Rong Tanma couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and moved his body to the corner of the cell. Because his hands were tied from behind. So the leader of the horses leaned down and took a short knife from his boot with his mouth.
The Rongdi usually carry two knives, one for fighting and the other for eating. This short knife for eating is usually pinned to the waist. When the Rongdi people were besieged by Yinghai, the leader of the Tanma realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately pulled out the short knife from his waist and put it in his boots, and now it finally came in handy.
After taking out the short knife, the leader of the horse turned his back, picked up the short knife on the ground, and cut the rope on his hand little by little.
When the hands are freed, the person is relaxed.
In the Western New Year, there were no iron tools, and this was a military camp, so the door of the cell was also tied with ropes. Besides, who would have thought that an enemy who was tightly bound and locked up in prison would carry a knife?
This shows how important security checks and physical checks are.
The leader of the horses cut the rope from the cell door, picked up the rope on the ground, and crept out of the cell to the outside of the barracks. There was no one outside, and after a month of guarding, everyone was tired and had long since relaxed their vigilance.
The leader of the Tanma walked out of the barracks and gently came to the vicinity of the west gate, looked left and right, snoring was everywhere, and the soldiers defending the city also fell asleep.
He hesitated, pondering how to get out of the city. If the city gate is opened at this time, it will definitely wake up the soldiers who are defending the city. After thinking for a moment, Feng Rong Tanma gently went up to the city and walked along the city wall to a battlement. I looked left, right, and right, and there was nothing but starlight and the barking of dogs from far and near.
Dogs are very loyal friends of man, and when everyone is asleep, the dogs in the city continue to stick to their duties, following their owners to take care of the cattle, sheep and horses during the day, and going out to walk around the streets at night to prevent bad people from causing trouble, and to fulfill their obligations seriously. Although the dog kept barking, trying to wake up the attention of the Qin soldiers, at this time the Qin soldiers were all drunk and asleep, and none of them paid attention to the shouts of this loyal friend.
Hmph---, ignore me, and I won't scream anymore.
The dog glanced back at the leader of the Fengrong Tanma on the battlements, shook his head in disappointment, found a place under the eaves, and went to sleep.
The night was quiet, the moon was bright and the stars were thin, and the dogs stopped barking.
Tanma tied the rope he had brought out to the battlements, tried it, and after being sure that it was tightly tied, he grabbed the rope and slowly slipped down the wall.
Feng Rong, who had left the city, ran north on his legs.
Not long after running out, Feng Rong Tanma saw a family of Qin people grazing, and Tanma was overjoyed.
Although most of the Qin herdsmen were able to leave early and return late to drive their cattle, sheep and horses back to Inuqiu City before dark, there were always half of them who did not play their cards according to the convention and liked to do something unbelievable in the crowd to show that they were different.
For example, when everyone drove the cattle, sheep and horses back to the city, some people stayed outside the city to show their courage and courage. Of course, today, these Qin herdsmen who did not drive their cattle, sheep and horses back to the city inadvertently planted a disaster for the Qin people.
Now Feng Rong Tanma has come to the horse pen of the Qin herdsmen.
The horses of the Qin herdsmen were in the fence outside the tent, and Feng Rong probed the horse to get into the fence, picked out a good horse from it, and simply made a horse reins with ropes, and then turned over on the horse.
"Ride ---" the horses crossed the fence and galloped north in the night.
Inuqiu Qinzhong Mansion.
At dawn, the weather in Longxi was still so fine, and the sun was as red and red as drinking wine.
Ying Kai walked out of his room and into his grandfather's hall. At this time, his grandfather Qin Zhong had already gotten up, so he asked, "Did grandfather drink high last night?" ”
The Qin people are located in the northwest, they are bold by nature, and they like to celebrate everything in the form of drinking, so the Qin wine in the northwest during the Spring and Autumn Period is a famous good wine. Whether it is the Qin people themselves, the surrounding Rongdi tribes and the nobles of the Central Plains countries, they all like this bitter and strong Qin wine, and the amount of Qin wine they drink is a reflection of their courage and drinking ability.
Qin Zhong laughed when he heard this: "Don't you know that your grandfather is huge!" So a little bit of wine is nothing at all? Then Qin Zhong asked with concern: "Kai'er, you haven't drunk too much!" ”
Ying Kai smiled, "With a good amount of alcohol like my grandfather, Ying Kai is nothing to drink so much wine." ”
"That's good, that's good. Qinyi is completed, I am very happy! Since then, the Qin people have one more city that can be defended, which is also conducive to expanding the territory of the Qin people, what a happy thing! Qin Zhong said happily to Ying Kai.
Looking at his grandfather's happy expression, Yingkai was of course excited.
The completion of Qinyi can be said to be a major event for the Qin people in recent years, the merit is in the present generation, and the benefit is in the future, can you not be happy?
At this moment, Inuqiu Sima ran in with his life, "Doctor, it's not good, something happened, something happened." ”
"What's so alarming?" Looking at Inuqiu Sima's nervous expression, Qin Zhong asked puzzled.
"Rong Di Tanma ran away, last night Rong Di Tanma took advantage of our celebration and ran away---"
Rong Di Tan Ma ran away?
Qin Zhong looked at Inuqiu Sima suspiciously, maybe it was because people are easy to forget things when they are old, after such a long time, he has forgotten the Fengrong Tanma that Yingkai caught at the beginning.
"Grandfather, what Sima is talking about is the Fengrong Tanma we caught last time, and he ran away last night while we were drinking to celebrate." Ying Kai explained to Qin Zhong.
"Huh?" Qin Zhong understood everything now, and he knew what was going on, and after thinking about it hard, he finally remembered what was going on, "Isn't he locked up in the barracks?" How did you run away? ”
"This man is indeed locked up in the barracks, and after a long time, the soldiers neglected to manage him, and just as we were celebrating, Feng Rong Tanma took advantage of the chaos to slip out of the city through the west gate." Inuqiu Sima replied.
"Ah---, Qin people are resting, Qin people are resting." Qin Zhong said again and again.
As the leader of the Qin people, Qin Zhong certainly knew that with Feng Rong's strength, the small Inuqiu Qin people were not their opponents at all, and once Feng Rong sent troops to attack, would the Qin people not be able to finish the game early.
