The night was lit up by torches.

The climate of the steppe is cold at night.

These newly defeated Han soldiers titheed close to the campfire.

Zhang Qi's arrival made these frightened birds extremely nervous.

But it is different from the life and death confrontation in the afternoon.

This time, Zhang Qi and the others seemed much more easy-going.

"Ten thousand people will be Xu Kai."

Zhang Qi's shout made the eyes of all the Han soldiers turn to the bonfire in the middle.

"I've seen Liaohou."

A burly man stood up, looking nervous.

"Well, your battalion of 10,000 people, Ben Hou brought 500 sheep over, kill them and share the food."

Zhang Qi waved his hand, and the three hundred guards cavalry threw five hundred sheep with limbs tied to the ground from their horses.

“.”

This one can't be rectified by Xu Kai, let alone him, all the Han army soldiers can't be rectified.

Liaohou is so generous?

Just so reassuring?

Seeing that they did not move.

Zhang Qi frowned and snorted coldly.

"What? I also want Ben Hou to get it and feed it to you personally! ”

"Don't dare."

"Don't dare, just leave it to the little one."

"Thank you, Liaohou."

“.”

Some people wanted to make a haha, but suddenly remembered their identity, and they didn't dare to do it halfway, so they had to lower their heads and step forward to deal with the fat sheep.

They deal with theirs.

Zhang Qi took out a tin horn and continued.

"Ben Hou doesn't care if you want to escape or not, and even, Ben Hou will not stop you from escaping."

"But you have to think it through."

"Look at the armor of these soldiers under Ben Hou's command."

"After you escape and return to the Han land, how likely will you be pushed to the battlefield again to fight Benhou."

"You wait to think clearly, the 10,000 people you are waiting for will go back and be demoted, and they will still be captains of 1,000 people, and 100 people will be Sima, but you will still be small soldiers."

"If you want to let today's encounter happen again, Benhou will turn a blind eye to your escape measures."

"But if you choose to stay and really surrender to Benhou, Benhou can promise to wait, and if you want to continue the official position of the army, you can also have your land after returning to Liaodi."

"The interests and disadvantages of Benhou have been clarified with you, how to choose, Benhou is all up to you."

Zhang Qi's words made this 10,000-person camp silent, and even those who were dealing with the fat sheep couldn't help but raise their heads to look at Zhang Qi.

Zhang Qi's words were very straightforward, without the slightest twist and turn, even those of them who had little culture could understand the meaning of every word.

Yes, back in the Han Dynasty, these soldiers with battlefield experience will not be allowed to retire before they are old.

Most of the soldiers will be sent back into battle.

And what happened to Ju Yanze this time is bound to make the emperor draw a knife against Zhang Qi.

There is no need to guess, after they go back, they will be pushed to the front of the battle to face Zhang Qi.

When all the soldiers thought of today's bloody rain, they couldn't hold back and shivered.

Do you want to stay?

It's all the same.

Most of the soldiers had this voice ringing in their hearts.

Then, the sound spread like a virus.

Looking at the heroic soldiers wearing good armor beside Zhang Qi,

The soldiers of the Han army couldn't help but envy in their hearts, if they were wearing such a dress today, the outcome of the war would be really hard to say.

After saying what he was going to say, Zhang Qi didn't think to listen to the generous words of these subordinates.

As he said.

If you stay, you will stay, and if you run, he will escape, and he can accept both results.

As for whether they will rebel.

Hehe.

They try?

Leaving a silent battalion to surrender, Zhang Qi and the others went to another battalion.

The same words, the same five hundred fat sheep.

In the end, there was the same silence.

One night.

Zhang Qi said the same sentence seventeen times.

Before the sun dawned, they returned to rest in the military fortress that had been repaired by the Han army.

And this sleep, in the afternoon.

Wait for Zhang Qi to wake up.

It's time for the sun to set infinitely.

The fact that he can sleep for so long indicates that everything is going well in the military village.

Otherwise, someone would have woken him up.

"Your Majesty, big leg of mutton, hehe, delicious, Hu Er roasted."

As soon as he opened his eyes, Zhang Qi saw a big face beside him.

He was startled, but as soon as he heard the voice, he was relieved again.

Hu Er.

His absolute dead.

"Don't eat it."

Zhang Qi patted Hu Er's head angrily.

The latter still had a smile on his face.

Hearing that Zhang Qi didn't eat, he gnawed on himself.

"Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty."

“.”

Get out of the big tent.

The soldiers saluted and said hello, and then hurried to life.

The wounded soldiers couldn't be treated in a few days, and these soldiers could only provide the most basic battlefield first aid, and Zhang Qi didn't bring anyone from the medical team this time.

Even so.

The mortality rate of the wounded soldiers also greatly shocked some of the Han soldiers who helped.

On the battlefield of yesterday.

A tall pile of firewood was erected.

Lying on it were the soldiers who had died yesterday.

Wait for a late meal.

Tens of thousands of soldiers under Zhang Qi gathered here.

Accompanied by the prayers of the gods, the green smoke curled and took away the blessings of the living to the dead.

The fire burned all night.

Early the next morning, 430 clay pots were piled up.

In a burst of joy, Zhang Qi brought them into the world of riding and chopping.

——

"City Lord! A large number of Han troops gathered in Shangjun, and Mr. Zhang Bo sent back a secret letter that the Han Dynasty was ready to take back the military power of the border counties! ”

Shanhai City.

An urgent report sounded in the city lord's mansion.

Hu Ling, who was dealing with the recent complicated material information, froze in her hands.

"It's time to come."

"Order the tiger and the eagle to attack the two armies immediately, and immediately Chen Bing will be right in Beiping!"

"Xuan Army, the three new armies take turns day and night to guard the Shanhaiguan!"

"All passages are under martial law, no entry is allowed but no exit, all supplies are by water, notify the navy, any non-friendly ships on the sea are allowed to attack first and then ask!"

"In addition, Liaoning is guarding the grassland channel, and Changchun is guarding the Daxing channel."

"The whole territory is immediately in combat readiness!"

"No!"

At this moment, Hu Ling's face was full of heroism, and there was no weakness at all.

Pigeons fly.

For a time, everyone in the entire territory of Zhang Qi's territory entered the state of combat readiness that had been drilled countless times in an orderly manner.

Weapons, leather armor were distributed in large quantities.

This is true even in Changchun and Liaoning, far behind.

Women, students, as long as they are over fourteen years old, are entitled to carry swords and soldiers with them.

In each city, the bow and crossbow are placed in the most conspicuous place, but where there is an enemy attack, anyone can hold a bow and crossbow.

Resources began to be adjusted.

The canned food production was already at full capacity, the water forging mills, the smelting furnaces were recruiting people on a large scale again, and everything was preparing for the coming war.
