Chapter 14: Night Talk

This time it was Guo Wei's turn to smile bitterly: "What about being familiar with the art of war and the battle array, without the support of the imperial court, Weizhou will be like water without a source, and it will dry up after all, Weizhou is also because of years of war, sparse people, insufficient money and food for soldiers, I don't know if I can block the impact of several waves of party members, I can only do the duty of a soldier, and only coexist with Weizhou City." ”

Wang Sheng stood solemnly: "After more than two months of getting along, I know that Du Wei is a talented, but also a person with great ambitions, if Weizhou City really can't hold one day, it is enough to have our old brothers, I hope Du Wei can stay here, the dragon meets the shoal, it will not be able to display his ambition, when he has the opportunity to come tomorrow, Du Wei is the dragon into the sea, Kunpeng spread his wings, and will be able to soar in the nine days; The Governor has already done a lot to Weizhou City, and Weizhou does not need the Captain to promise it. ”

Guo Wei said: "You and I are both soldiers, fighting is our fate, I can accept defeat, but I will never accept running away without a fight, if I flee in this battle, then what ambition do I have to talk about in my heart?" ”

Wang Sheng solemnly saluted Guo Wei: "Du Wei's words, Wang Sheng has been taught, and Weizhou City is fortunate to have Du Wei." ”

Guo Weixu held Wang Sheng's arm: "Weizhou City is more fortunate to have Captain Wang." ”

The sunset was about to set in the mountains, and the afterglow dyed the clouds on the horizon red, and also dyed the city of Weizhou into a golden yellow. The shadows of Guo Wei and Wang Sheng stretched out a long ....... on the city

In August, the Bulzhi grassland is the time when the scenery is beautiful, the grass grows and the warbler flies, the water is clear and the sky is blue, but Qinzhen they don't have time to enjoy the beautiful scenery here, in addition to following Tuoba Jue's cavalry training every day, they also have to feed the war horses after the training, and the fifty Han slaves were divided into two groups by them, and they were taken care of by Tuoba Feng and another ten-captain Li Zenan's team.

After a day of training and labor, Qin Zhen and they returned to the thatched hut, outside is the sentry of the party people, since Tuoba Jue announced the assembly training, their slaves have been guarded, during the day, Tuoba Feng read to them Tuoba Jue's order, tomorrow morning, the whole army assembled, ready to go to battle.

The fire was jumping in the stove, and the food in the pot was steaming, Qin Zhen and they circled around the stove, talking in a low voice, no one cared about the food in the pot, although they were all hungry now.

"Everyone knows Tuoba Feng's order during the day, tomorrow is the day of the expedition, and we are likely to be disrupted and incorporated into the army, so tonight is likely to be our last meeting, there are some things that need to be explained to everyone, so let's ask Qin Zhen to talk about our next actions." Ma Xuan said softly.

Qin Zhen looked around at the uncertain faces of this group of friends, his heart was a little excited, but his face was calm as usual: "As Ma Xuan said, it is very likely that we will be disrupted and they will be incorporated into the marching troops, what I want to say is that no matter how we are disrupted, we should not have any dissatisfied movements, everyone must protect themselves; We have analyzed that this expedition is most likely to be a southern expedition, so after the army enters the territory of the Han people, we must find a way to escape. ”

Hearing Qin Zhen's words, everyone's faces had different expressions, Ma Xuan, Xue Yuan, and Chaochuan Wu knew about this plan, so they looked calm, without the slightest wave, Ma Rui held his chin in one hand and nodded slightly, with an expression that was really like this; Chen Luosheng didn't show much surprise, just looked at Qin Zhen with eager eyes; Yan Yue seemed to have a calm face, but he was trying to suppress the tremors all over his body; The most abnormal are Wang Tiezhu and Yang Xiaoqi, the two of them danced excitedly, waving their hands in the air, wanting to make a sound, but they tried their best to suppress it, so that the faces of the two of them were flushed; Comparatively speaking, Ma Shun seemed much calmer, but the slightly trembling hands when adding firewood showed that his heart was not so calm now.

After everyone gradually digested Qin Zhen's words and everyone's expressions returned to normal, Qin Zhen continued: "I tell you this secret now, that is, I hope that everyone will be mentally prepared in advance, so as not to catch everyone off guard when the time comes, the training we have done, our ideals, and our hopes all have a premise, that is, we can successfully escape from the control of the party members, so in the next period of time, after we disperse, what everyone does is to hide and be capable, and wait for the opportunity." If you have any questions, you can ask them. ”

Marry asked softly, "Where are we going?" ”

Qin Zhen said: "I don't know, but the most likely is to go south, now is the time when the autumn harvest of wheat in Qinzhou is basically completed, when I came here from Qinzhou, not counting the time to stay in Lanzhou, it basically took half a month on the road, and we are all cavalry in the south, there is no grain and grass to drag, the speed of the march should be doubled, so we will arrive in Lanzhou in about three to four days, and we can reach Weizhou in about two days out of Lanzhou, which is the time when we have just completed the autumn harvest." ”

Ma Shun said angrily: "We worked hard for a year to make such a small ration, and in the end we were taken away by this group of party members, they are really hateful." ”

Chen Luosheng sneered: "This world is originally the law of the jungle, since we are weak, we naturally have to bear the pain of the weak, there is nothing to say, if you want to blame ourselves, we are too weak." ”

Xue Yuan also nodded and said: "Yes, we are too weak, it is stupid to pin our hopes on the sympathy of the strong, only when we ourselves become strong, we will not be bullied." ”

Qin Zhen stretched out his hand to stop Wang Tiezhu and the others who still wanted to speak, and continued: "We have limited time now, so don't discuss the issue of our strength or weakness, what we have to do now is to do our best, save ourselves, and find a way to escape, and then Ma Xuan and Chaochuan Wu will introduce our specific plan to you." ”

Ma Xuan beckoned to everyone, motioned for everyone to come closer, and said in a low voice: "Actually, our plan is very simple, that is, to take advantage of the opportunity for the party to enter the territory of the Han people, take advantage of the time when the party people relax their vigilance, set fire to the camp, and take advantage of the chaos to seize the war horse and rush out of the camp of the party people; In this process, we have a total of two major difficulties, one is how to enter the team going south, and now this difficulty has been solved; The second is how to make the party members relax their vigilance, smoothly set fire to the camp, and rush out of the camp, we only have 10 people, we need to rush out of the party army of more than 100 people, we need everyone's close cooperation, as long as there is a mistake in one place, we have only a dead end. ”

Chen Luosheng thought for a while and said: "When we went south, we were separated, but what we have to do requires everyone to unify the password and act in unison, and we can't contact each other, how can we act in unison." ”

Qin Zhen said with a smile: "Actually, this is not too difficult, although we will be separated, but the main task of our southward journey is to take care of the war horses, and there should be opportunities to meet each other in the process of taking care of the war horses, even if there is no chance in the process of going south, after the party people rob the grain and grass slaves, they will generally let us go to escort, at that time, we will definitely be gathered together, at that time, we will have a chance; In the past few years, the performance of our Han people is too weak, and there is basically no threat to them, so the party members do not pay enough attention to us, and this is our opportunity, so on the way south, all we have to do is to be bold and careful, improvised, and wait for the opportunity. ”

Asagawa Wu smiled slightly: "Have you forgotten that there is still me as a veterinarian?" Your movements will be restricted, but my movements should not be too restricted, and I can apply for the horses to be inspected and cared for during the march, and I think they will not refuse, and I can be your liaison. ”

Qin Zhen said with a smile: "This problem has also been solved, in fact, this matter is far simpler than we imagined, and now the party members despise us enough, so as long as we plan properly, the probability of success is very high, what we lack now is confidence and courage, when the weak for too long, our confidence and courage will slowly disappear." ”

Asagawa Wu continued: "I used my identity as a veterinarian to receive some medicine from the party members, these medicines can make the war horses have some slight anxiety and excitement after taking them, this state will not be too obvious, so the party people generally don't care, three days before the plan is determined, I will send the configured medicine to everyone's hands, you just need to add a little to the grass every day, as long as you encounter an abnormal state, the anxiety and excitement of these war horses will be amplified." ”

Seeing that Chaochuan Wu had finished explaining, Xue Yuan waved his hand and said: "Qin Zhen is right, this matter is not that complicated, as long as we have confidence, I believe we will succeed, damn, we have been slaves for too long, the party members seem to have forgotten the strength of our Han people, this time, we will let this group of party members see the backbone of our Han people." ”

Xue Yuan's words successfully drove everyone's emotions, and the calm and tense atmosphere just now was a little enthusiastic by what Xue Yuan said, Wang Tiezhu followed and slashed into the air, gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, let these bitches take a look at the backbone of our Han people." ”

Qin Zhen pressed his hands in the air, stopping everyone's gradually restless emotions: "When we really escape, it is when we are really excited, now is not the time, we must be calm; I would like to reiterate that a very important factor in our success this time is secrecy, so we must keep this secret and not reveal it to anyone but us, not even with any unusual look on our faces. ”

"Understood!"

"Okay, everyone eat now, rest early after eating, tomorrow is the day when the party members go out, and it is also the day we go out!"
