Chapter 165: Chen Yu

The military order Zhao Tuo received was to escort the Wei captives back to their hometowns in exchange for grain, and then escort this batch of grain and the Wei people who were about to become slaves to Daliang for delivery.

Previously, they walked safely from Xingyang to Humu Township, hundreds of miles, because these Wei people knew that they were going to be escorted back to their hometowns, so they were very obedient. But now, they clearly know that after they are escorted to Daliang, they will become slaves of the Qin people.

In this way, it is indispensable to seek opportunities to escape on the road.

There will always be people who will fight for a free life with their lives.

In this regard, Zhao Tuo showed no mercy and cut off the heads of five escapees in a row.

When the blood-soaked human head was stuck on the tip of the spear and displayed in front of those Wei people, the Wei people finally lowered their heads and accepted their fate, no longer thinking about escaping.

Tzu is not in charge of the army.

This is what Zhao Tuo learned in the process of leading the troops, kill when you should kill, whether it is for subordinates or prisoners, everything is based on completing the task. If we are excessively merciful, we will only breed trouble.

After solving the problem of the Wei people escaping, the next thing in front of Zhao Tuo was the problem of the route.

There are two roads from Humu Township to Daliang, one is to go south to Waihuang for the night, then go west from Waihuang, arrive at Chenliu a day later, and then go from Chenliu to Daliang.

The advantage of this road is that you can go to Waihuang to see Yang Xiong and Zhao Ben, and because it is a traffic avenue, it is under the heavy control of the Qin army along the way, there are seven hundred Qin troops in Waihuangcheng, and Chen Liu's large army is even more Huan Zhao.

But the downside is obvious.

Therefore, after thinking a little, Zhao Tuo chose the second road, directly from Humu Township all the way to the west, along the road to Xingyang, and then went south from a fork in the way, went to Xiaohuang for the night, and then walked dozens of miles to Daliang City.

The carriage was rolling, the convoy was driving on the westbound road, and Zhao Tuo looked back at Humu Township with a slight regret in his heart.

He did not receive Chen Ping's allegiance.

One of the reasons is that he is late, Chen Ping has become Zhang's son-in-law, and he has no worries about living expenses, and he is accompanied by a wife at home, and he has a lot of status in Humu Township. Under such conditions, normal people would not choose to leave their hometown and follow Zhao Tuo.

Before joining the Zhang family, Chen Ping's family was poor, and he was even rumored by the villagers to be a "thief of sisters-in-law", and his situation was very difficult.

If Zhao Tuo can come at that time and help Chen Ping get out of trouble, it is very likely that he will return to his heart.

The icing on the cake is better than a charcoal in the snow.

Although Zhao Tuo pleaded for the captives later, he did not do it perfectly, and finally turned into exchanging people for food, and Chen Ping's gratitude to him was limited.

Of course, Zhao Tuo feels that the biggest reason is that he is too young now and his status is not enough.

If he is a real general and is in a high position, he can open the mansion openly and openly and invite him to the official position in the shogunate, Chen Ping will definitely not refuse.

Now Zhao Tuo is only a mere 500 masters, although he is temporarily in charge of a thousand troops, but his authority is too low to give something attractive.

Just like the original Li Shi (Y) Qi (j), although Zhao Tuo said that he would move him out of the mountain, but after Xiao Huang made a contribution, because there was no other place to use in the Battle of Wai Huang, Li Shi Qi returned to Chen Liu under the pretext of taking care of his younger brother.

The reason is that Zhao Tuo cannot provide a stage for the other party to display his talents, if Zhao Tuo is a general who leads the army, and can assign Li Shiqi to the corresponding city to make meritorious service at will, the other party will definitely not leave.

"What's in his hands, anyway, the military officials are transferred, and they can't take away the original subordinates. Even if Chen Ping and Li Shiqi are now under their command, once I am transferred, they still can't go with me. Wait for them to grow up a little longer. At least this time, I must have left a deep impression on them, and I may not have a chance to earn them in the future."

Zhao Tuo explained himself in his heart, and at the same time longed: "I won a lot in the battle of Xingyang, and I also captured Wei Bao, such a credit will definitely allow me to be promoted to the rank of the fifth doctor." This time, I will escort the grain to Daliang, where I should be able to award the title to me."

"Five doctors, that Meng Yu in the past was only the title of five doctors."

It was dark in Zhao Tuo's heart

When he thought about it, the black buttocks rode over and shouted to Zhao Tuo: "Gongcheng, there is a group of Wei people in front, and those few in it seem to be light warriors, should we send someone to arrest them and ask?"

Hearing this, Zhao Tuo's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the group of Wei people walking on the side of the road in front of him.

There were about forty or fifty people, and some of them were Wei families with their families, including women, children, the old and the weak.

In addition, there were more than a dozen young men dressed in cloth clothes, with swords at their waists, judging from their behavior, they should be light men from Wei Di. Zhao Tuo noticed that among those light heroes, there was also a man wearing a Confucian crown, who was actually a Confucian student.

Seeing a large number of Qin troops coming over on the road, the Confucian scholars and light warriors reacted the fastest and went straight to the forest next to them. Some of the remaining Wei people followed into the forest, and some were so frightened when they saw the Qin army coming, they couldn't run, and they were lying on the side of the road shivering.

"I guess I want to move somewhere else."

Zhao Tuo's heart moved.

The main force of the Qin army was concentrated outside Daliang City, and the rest of the partial divisions were mainly contracted in important cities such as Chenliu. In the vast rural areas of the Wei State, the Qin army would generally only station about 50 people in the township, and Zhao Tuo only left 100 people in important places like Humu Township.

In this way, the number of people left behind by the Qin army was uncontrollable, so the Wei people could still move from place to place.

For this situation, the Qin army will not spend energy to manage it, nor does it have the strength and necessity to manage it.

The purpose of the Qin army was to destroy Wei, and it was only necessary to occupy important cities and ensure smooth transportation. After the fall of Daliang and the destruction of Wei Sheji, Qin officials were sent from China to slowly clean up all parts of Wei.

In this case, Zhao Tuo naturally would not send someone to pursue him, he said: "We have a military order in our body, and escorting the grain and the two hundred Wei people to Daliang is the top priority, as long as the Wei people encountered on the road do not get in the way and find trouble, do not care."

"Oh."

The black buttocks replied and muttered, "I see that there is a Confucian student in it who has a burden, and it looks like a good thing. But now everyone has run away, or the prince will let him open it and take a look."

In the middle of the jungle.

Chen Yu shrank in a tall grass bush, staring at the Qin army troops hurrying on the avenue with red eyes.

A light man leaned over and said in a low voice, "Jun Chen, I think this batch of Qin troops should be escorting military rations to Daliang. The cart they drove was full of grain."

"These Qin people are really barbaric, in addition to food, I see that there are hundreds of farmers from our Wei Kingdom in their army. Those people should have been taken by them as slaves. Chen Jun, since we have encountered them, it is better to attack them tonight and burn the grain of the Qin people. If we can make some trouble, maybe we can let those 200 people escape."

A light man offers a clever plan.

Several people around whispered: "Brother Wang is a good plan, we only snatched Zhang Jun's head in Xiao Huang before, and we didn't have a chance to kill a few Qin people to avenge Zhang Jun. Now that we have encountered it, it is better to find an opportunity to burn the grain of these Qin people, and if we can take advantage of the chaos to kill a few Qin people, it can be regarded as revenge."

Hearing this, Chen Yu's gaze was retracted, and he first looked at the bulging burden in his arms. Then he raised his head and sneered, "One or two thousand stones of grain, plus a few Qin people, how can it be regarded as revenge for my brother?"

"Chen Jun?" All eyes were on them.

Chen Yu said hatefully: "Friends who cut their necks swear to live and die together. Zhang Er and I made a vow to live and die together. He was killed by the Qin general who broke through the outer yellow, and I naturally want to seek revenge. There are thousands of these Qin troops, and your plan will never succeed, but you are in danger of being overturned. Why bother to provoke me and delay my plan for revenge."

[To tell the truth, I've been using it lately.]

Go to Onozawa to take care of my sister-in-law and nephew, if I don't go to see him, I'm sorry for my brother's trust."

The light man frowned and said, "In that case, when will you go to Waihuang for revenge?"

Chen Yu snorted coldly, "I'm not going to Waihuang, I'm going to Chu State."

"Chu State?" Everyone was stunned.

Chen Yu said coldly: "Murder and revenge, but it's just a little talk. If I want to do it, I will do great things!"

"At the beginning of the year, the state of Chu sent an envoy to the king of Qin to offer the land west of Qingyang to seek a peace treaty. But to this day, it has not been fully delivered, and I heard that the lord of the Qu clan in the Qingyang Prefecture is unwilling to give up his fiefdom, and there is also war and peace within the Chu State. I want to go to the State of Chu and say that the people of the Qu clan will kill the envoy of Qin, and cause the State of Chu and the State of Qin to turn against each other!"

"Chu, a big country also! Although it was broken by the Qin people, its strength still exists. If I can let Qin Chu go to war, I will definitely be able to kill and injure a large number of Qin troops, and use the blood of countless Qin people to bury my brother!"

"The enemy who killed my brother is not the Qin general in the outer yellow area, but the brutal Qin State! In my lifetime, I will fight against the Qin State and do everything I can to destroy this Qin State!"

Chen Yu spoke loudly, startling the surrounding light heroes.

Revenge is not just killing one Qin general.

Instead, he provoked wars, killed countless Qin troops, and spent his life against the Qin state.

Pattern.

This is the gap between Chen Yu and these light heroes.

After all the light heroes reacted, they all bowed down to Chen Yu.

"Chen Jun's ambition is far from being comparable to us. We are willing to die for Chen Jun and overthrow the Qin State together!"

Chen Yu bowed his head, but his eyes did not look at these kneeling light heroes, but through the dense forest leaves, he looked at the Qin army who was slowly moving forward on the road.

Especially a chariot in the ranks of the Qin army, on which there was a Qin general standing with his head held high.

Chen Yu's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

This Qin general's age is really young.
