In the early morning of the next day, Qin Cheng inspected the military camp early in the company of Qin Qingzhi, today is the day when the army sends people to pick up the prisoners, calculate the distance, it should be in the evening before people arrive, but after counting the prisoners and then bringing them back, I am afraid that it will be tomorrow. That is, if the hussar battalion has any other action, it will have to wait at least until after tomorrow. Of course, if the Hun cavalry took the initiative to fight, it would not count.

"According to the sentinel cavalry report, no shadow of the Hun cavalry has been found within a radius of twenty miles so far, that is, there are no rangers." Qin Qingzhi reported the recent news to Qin Cheng, and then said with some doubts: "It stands to reason that if the tens of thousands of Hun cavalry in Yanmen had arrived nearby last night, they would have already taken action, but I don't know why there is still no news at this time." Could it be that we miscalculated our plans yesterday? ”

"Yesterday's plans?" Qin Cheng's face still had a faint smile that seemed to have never faded all year round, a little confident, and some of the alternative arrogance and arrogance of Qin Cheng I's underworld soldiers, "We had a plan yesterday?" ”

“...... When we let go of the wounded Hun ranger, didn't we want him to pass on the news of the five or six thousand captives of the Dan Wolf to the Hun princess, and then lure him to the rescue? The doubts on Qin Qingzhi's face deepened, and looking at the faint smile on the corner of Qin Cheng's mouth, he asked a little sleepily: "Could it be ...... The general has other plans? ”

"It's true to tell Yi Xue'er the news that the wolf is here, but lure him to the rescue," Qin Cheng looked at Qin Qingzhi seriously, "Have we made any efforts in this regard?" ”

"......" Qin Qingzhi.

"Also, the army rushed thousands of miles from Chang'an to Shanggu, and yesterday it experienced another big battle, and it was the time of exhaustion." Qin Cheng's expression became more and more serious, "If Yi Xue'er really led an army of 30,000 to the rescue, why should we fight against her?" ”

"......" Qin Qingzhi stammered for a while, and said in his heart, you are the main general, and I am not the main general, this is a question you should consider, how do I know?

"Are you trying to say that you thought Ben was going to have an arrangement, so you didn't think about it?" Qin Cheng seemed to see through the thoughts in Qin Qing's heart, and then asked.

Qin Qingzhi nodded, I wanted to say yes, yes, that's what I thought, but seeing the seriousness and a little reproach in Qin Cheng's eyes, he didn't say anything superfluous. Then, Qin Cheng said something that made him almost bite his tongue.

Qin Cheng said: "Actually...... Ben didn't think about it either. ”

Qin Qingzhi was dumbfounded, and then Qin Cheng continued: "Because Yi Xue'er won't come at all, it's useless to think about it." ”

Speaking of this, Qin Cheng deliberately paused, and did not directly say the reason, Qin Qingzhi understood what Qin Cheng meant, thought about it for a while, and said tentatively: "The general means that the Xiongnu princess will realize that we deliberately let the Xiongnu ranger back, so he is worried that we are cheating?" ”

Qin Cheng smiled and nodded, and said with some approval: "This is the reason why we have not found any trace of the Xiongnu army until now. Yi Xue'er is a smart person, she has been in the Central Plains for a long time, and she must not be messing around, besides, she has suffered a lot under my hands before, so she has to be smarter this time. It was a little unreasonable for that ranger to go back, how could such an obvious suspicion not arouse her suspicions? ”

"It turns out that the general has already planned!" Qin Qingzhi sighed in admiration, paused, and asked again, "But even so, could that Xiongnu princess abandon the Dan Wolf and leave thousands of captives alone?" That's five or six thousand elite soldiers! ”

"When did I say she would ignore the six thousand captives? The population in the steppe is very expensive, not to mention 6,000 elite soldiers. If it weren't for the 30,000 troops of Yi Xue'er, we would still be doing anything here now, and we would have gone to the grassland with Wei Qing to kill all sides. Qin Cheng said sullenly, seeing Qin Qingyi's sudden realization, he couldn't help but slap him on the head, and then scolded: "Why have you been messing with me for so long, and I have to explain such a simple problem to you personally, can you be more flexible in your brain?" ”

Qin Qingzhi was slapped in vain, and he felt a grievance in his heart, and he straightened Qin Cheng's crooked helmet with a slap, and whispered: "My subordinates know that they are wrong." ”

"If you know it's wrong, you have to change it!" Qin Cheng held his hands and grimaced, and rebuked majestically, "Also, after the end of the battle this time, you will go down to lead the troops, and first give you a thousand light cavalry belts, what's the matter with always playing soy sauce by my side?" A good man's fame is taken right away, the seedlings in the greenhouse will never be able to hold up a piece of the sky, Ben will train you for so many years, but it is not for you to serve tea and water to Ben Jiang! ”

After that, Qin Cheng strode forward under Qin Qingzhi's stunned gaze, and muttered to himself: "Lao Tzu doesn't do anything, what's the matter with a big man around him......"

Qin Qingzhi looked at Qin Cheng's back, and his expression changed very richly for a while. He thought of Qin Cheng's sentence, "I will give you a thousand light riders and belts first", and his heartbeat inevitably accelerated.

Promoted from captain to captain by team?

Qin Qingzhi was flattered.

As everyone knows, with the various military exploits he has accumulated by Qin Cheng's side in the past few years, it is normal to be promoted to a captain.

Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, Qin Qingzhi ran to follow Qin Cheng and said loudly: "Then let Wang Er serve the general from now on!" ”

"......" Qincheng.

Forget it, no matter how you calculate it in the barracks, you can't avoid the suspicion of engaging in the base, Qin Cheng told himself to be calm.

......

At dusk, the county by county to take over the Huns 6,000 prisoners of the Tun army arrived in the town, in order to pursue speed, the people who came were all cavalry, there were about 3,000 people, the leading general was a bearded general surnamed Ma, called Ma Han, was the commander of the county. After all, 6,000 Hun prisoners of war is a big deal, and the county-by-county side does not dare to act carelessly, and it is expected that the commander will come in person.

Qin Cheng saw Ma Han, sent someone to count the prisoners with him, and agreed with him that for the sake of safety on the road, there would be chaos, so he would not rush today, and would return south until tomorrow morning.

At night, Qin Cheng and Ma Han sat together for supper, and the two met for the first time, chatting about some military affairs, but they were also kind.

"General, the Huns are making trouble again!" Le Yi, who was in charge of guarding the Xiongnu captives, walked into the house, glanced at Ma Han, and said to Qin Cheng.

"Let them call and ignore it. But if anyone dares to cause trouble, don't cherish the long knife in your hand. Qin Cheng said lightly, "Ducheng is still restless when he is captured, he really doesn't know the times." ”

"The Admiral understands!" Le Yi understood Qin Cheng's meaning and exited the house.

"General Qin, are these Huns restless?" Ma Han put down the chopsticks in his hand, sat up straight and said in concern.

"It's fine." Qin Cheng smiled casually, "The poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, not to mention the grassland desert, they are all wild." Ben will not be satisfied with them if they eat them, and give Ben will make trouble, which will not let his subordinates suppress it. ”

"Oh, I see." Ma Han breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "General Qin is really benevolent, that's six thousand mouths, and it's a lot of consumption." If there is a place where the last general is useful, General Qin can just say hello. "It means that if you run out of food, don't worry, I will help you.

Qin Cheng smiled faintly, "It's just a bowl of corn soup per person, and if there are no rice grains, nothing will be lost." ”

"......" Mahan.

"A bowl ......of rice soup for a meal, it's true," Ma Han laughed dryly, it didn't cost food.

Unexpectedly, Qin Cheng waved his hand and said without pressure: "Where, there is only a bowl of corn soup in total." ”

"From yesterday's war to now, it's just a bowl of rice soup, or there are no rice grains?" Mahan was shocked.

Qin Cheng shook his head and explained seriously: "Not from yesterday to now, but from yesterday to before they arrived at the county. ”

"......" Mahan was speechless for a while, why are you embarrassed to say that you took care of their food? Lao Tzu is really blind, saying that you are benevolent and righteous...... What a sin.

"Why, does Captain Ma think there's anything wrong with Ben doing this?" Qin Cheng asked with a serious face, seeing that Ma Han didn't know what to say for a while, he groaned for a while, touched his chin and said, "Ben Jiang remembered, it doesn't make sense to just eat and not do things, Ben Jiang shouldn't raise them in vain." ”

"......" Ma Han looked at Qin Cheng in horror, and said in his heart, you just let them die! I really don't know what these people did in their last life, and they became a prisoner of a black-hearted person like you in this life?

Just when Ma Han's mood was depressed, Qin Cheng sighed lightly and said, "Just let them run a few laps around the school field at night, you can't save them effort." Captain Madu, you know, if these people have too much strength, if something happens on the road, it will be a trouble. ”

Originally, Ma Han listened to Qin Cheng's previous words, and he felt a chill down his spine, thinking that Qin Cheng's heart was twisted too abnormal, was it so torturous? This made his eyes look at Qin Cheng with a strange fear. But when he heard Qin Cheng's words, Ma Han was shocked, and something suddenly came to his mind, and after reacting, he said: "General Qin means that this time on the road to the county, it won't be peaceful?" ”

Qin Cheng nodded, and reminded him kindly: "Don't Ma Duwei know that there are still 30,000 Huns who have entered this time and don't know where to go?" ”

"These 30,000 troops will intercept these Hun captives halfway?" Ma Han was shocked, then nodded, and his expression was solemn: "This is very likely, after all, it is six thousand captives." ”

"So," Qin Cheng smiled predictively, and said in a villainous tone: "We must not let these Hun captives still have the strength to be there tomorrow." After all, facing an army of 30,000 Huns is already a problem, and if you add these prisoners to be restless, the trouble will be even greater. ”

"What is General Qin's plan?" Ma Han immediately asked, and the impression of Qin Cheng in his heart once again took a 180-degree turn, and he felt that this guy was simply too smart and amazing.

"It's simple, just let these people run out of strength tonight." Qin Cheng looked at Ma Han and smiled meaningfully.

Ma Han's eyes touched Qin Cheng's sinister eyes, and he couldn't help but shudder, and his back was cold again.

That night, in the hussar camp barracks, there were bursts of miserable, earth-shattering howls of ghosts and gods, so that those who heard it could not bear to sleep, lest they have nightmares.
