If Tao Shaozhang hadn't quelled the civil strife on the grassland with one arrow, Chu Qing would definitely take everyone back.
Before leaving seclusion, he set three standards for himself: safety, safety, and especially safety, how to be safe, military merit, reputation, these messy things must be based on the premise of staying alive.
But now he went back in such a dejected manner. Even though he had issued a gag order, according to the third brother, Tao Shaozhang was shaped into a heroic image, but he was still unwilling to accept it. He reorganized the wolf-catching army in order to prove something to the border troops.
It's also to prove something to the wolf captor.
Just killing one Naichibu is not enough to prove that he has completely reorganized the wolf-catching army and completely raised the banner of the wolf-catching army.
Chu Qing cast a vote in favor of killing him back. The crucial vote was not because of the herdsmen, but because of a woman, Mu Hua.
Someone called Mu Hua, and Chu Qing didn't make sarcastic remarks this time, but smiled.
"One question, only one question. Give me a satisfactory answer. The wolf-catching army will treat each other with courtesy, and your son will receive preferential treatment, no different from the Han people."
Mu Hua was wet all over, and she sat down cross-legged carelessly, raising a somewhat neutral brow: "You ask."
"Why would those exiled herdsmen trust you?"
"I don't know what you mean."
"You, a Liangrong woman, appeared in front of them with a group of Han people, and appeared in front of them with a group of Changjun. You yelled and screamed, and they listened to you. Why?"
"You still doubt my identity?"
"No." Chu Qing laughed dumbly: "Then let me repeat it, they are already desperate, right? They know that they have no way to live, because they know that if they continue, they will die, whether they starve to death, die of illness, or die of exhaustion.
So it doesn’t matter, it’s death anyway, and dying under the knife of the Han people is also death, numbness, not caring, it doesn’t matter, right?”
"Maybe so."
"When you asked me for a knife, you asked them to cut off the horse meat to satisfy their hunger. At that time, you had a plan, right?"
Mu Hua frowned: "What's the plan?"
Chu Qing's smile grew stronger: "What's your name?"
"Evening Flower."
"How to say it in a sarcastic way."
"Evening Flower."
"Okay, answer me another question. It was raining and you kept running, shouting and yelling, and at the same time, you kept shouting your own name. Why?"
An imperceptible strange color flashed across Mu Hua's face, and this hint of strange color was keenly captured by Chu Qing.
Chu Qing laughed loudly, confirming his suspicion.
"Why are you laughing?"
"I'm not a smart person, but I'm good at pretending to be stupid. I can't see through smart people, but I can see through people who are pretending to be stupid, because pretending to be stupid has always been my strength." Chu Qing put away his smile and raised his hand.
Wei Wei pointed at Mu Hua: "When you shout your name among the herdsmen, you should tell everyone who you are, who saved them, and let them remember your name, right?"
"Why did I do this?"
"If you want to be a hero, you must at least create a heroic persona."
Twilight Flower asked again: "Why did I do this?"
"The Water Grass Ranch doesn't have many troops, right? As long as we stay to eat and leave some weapons, these people will go back and rescue their tribesmen, and they will definitely take the Water Grass Ranch back. By then, you will be the fourth
The benefactor and savior of this tribe, so you want them to remember your name."
"Why should I do this?"
"You will continue to use us. When we leave the border again, you know that we will definitely bring you as the translator. At that time, you will find ways to let us attack some tribes you want to attack. In the process, you
It will allow us to rescue more slaves and more small tribes, and let your name be sung on the grasslands."
Twilight Flower asked for the fourth time: "Why should I do this?"
"Because you are the woman of the Fourth Prince War Eagle, you have witnessed a kind of magic, a magic that unites people's hearts. The Fourth Prince used lies, shameful lies, to turn countless small tribes into his chess pieces, the chess pieces he used.
, this magic is just a little trick, to provide relief to some small tribes, a small favor, and send some supplies, horses, and iron tools. And your Tatamu tribe has been doing business with the Chang people all year round. The supplies sent by the fourth prince come from your tribe.
, you must have represented him, and gave some small favors to other tribes, and gained gratitude and countless die-hard loyalists. Of course, the most important thing is despair. Use despair. You use despair to make small tribes believe in you. In detail, you, fourth prince, you
If you want to become a person like the Fourth Prince, even if you are a woman, you want to give it a try. If you succeed, you will have many trump cards. We Chang people will need you. If you are out of our control, you can still do it.
Standing on the grassland on the hilltop."
After a pause, Chu Qing continued: "You are very good at this trick. The more than twenty rangers, the rangers who swore to protect you to the death, were deceived by this trick, so I am thinking, is it the fourth prince of War Eagle?
Using you, using you, a woman who understands the Chazu language, to deceive small tribes and Chachu people, or... was this plan originally proposed by you?"
Mu Hua subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and her breathing slowly became heavier.
"It seems I guessed it right."
Mu Hua's expression changed, and her pupils shrank like needlepoints: "Where did I show my flaws?"
"Part of it comes from experience. Women like you, like me, lick...men like me. I have seen many women like you who are good at playing with men. This experience has given me an extremely accurate intuition.
Another part of the reason is that you are very weird yourself. A woman, a woman on the grassland, takes good care of herself, pays attention to her appearance, and is good at observation. The most important thing is that she can speak Chinese and Chinese.
, there may be only one person, you are proficient in three languages at the same time, a prairie woman, why do you want to learn the languages of two other peoples, and one more thing, I don’t know the fourth prince of the war eagle, Allevi, but I know that he is definitely not a
A smart person is not smart at all. If he is a smart person, he will not face more than 700 wolf-catching troops with only more than 20 companions, and just say "good dog". Facts have proved that he is a
Idiot, because he was shot to death, but how can a fool who is not a smart person make countless small tribes on the grassland become loyal and willing to go through fire and water for him? I can't figure it out, but looking at you, I have some idea.
Isn't that right, Miss Dusk Flower?"
Fu San has stood quietly behind Mu Hua. In his hand, there is not a thousand machines, but a thin rope.
Using a piece of string, Third Brother can turn the toughest prairie man into a soft-legged shrimp, telling everyone everything he knows.
"Tell me." Chu Qing leaned back, put his hands on the ground, and showed a big smile: "Say a win-win plan, give me enough benefits, and I will make it happen for you. If you don't have a plan, then you don't have much.
There is more value in it. When I return to the border, I will find many troops who are proficient in Liangyu."
Mu Hua finally spoke: "Five hundred people."
Chu Qing laughed loudly: "I knew it."
"In thirty days, the number of people guarding the grassland pastures will be at most five hundred. Five hundred people will guard about two thousand slaves tied up with ropes. Two thousand young men will only be able to eat one meal and one bowl of water for two days.
"
"That's right, there are only five hundred people. There are more than four thousand herdsmen. With enough food and water, and some weapons, it is impossible to defeat five hundred people. Let's continue."
"I will try to convince you to go with us, because the Han people want to see us kill each other. I just eavesdropped on your conversation and I thought you fell into a trap."
"You fell into the trap because I asked classmate A Yi to observe you from a distance and observe your expression when you eavesdropped on our conversation."
Chu Qing smiled slightly: "These are not important. What is important is your plan. We will kill those five hundred people easily. In the end, you will make us let down our guard. After we completely let down our guard, you will incite those four people."
More than a thousand herdsmen and more than 2,000 young men will kill us, right?"
Mu Hua nodded seriously: "Yes."
"Then, you will become a hero who rescued slaves, your name will be sung on the grassland, and you will lead the small tribes to unite and overthrow the Golden Wolf King, right?"
"No, even if we unite all the small tribes, we still can't defeat the Golden Wolf King."
"But you have a trump card. Countless small tribes follow you. You have a powerful trump card. Using this trump card, you can have a place on the grassland and establish a new noble tribe, right?"
"If everything goes well, it will be like this." Mu Hua showed a sweet smile: "It's a pity that I met you and you saw through me."
"It's just good luck. I've seen a lot of desperate people, but what I want is to save them, and what you want is to take advantage of despair, because only desperate people are easier to be exploited."
Chu Qing stood up, patted his butt, turned around and shouted: "Xu Xiaopao, come here."
Xu Tianchen, who was carrying a long knife, ran over: "Sir, can you change my nickname for me?"
Pointing at Mu Hua, Chu Qing smiled and said, "From now on, she will be your concubine."
"ah?"
"Wherever she goes, you follow her, and you are not allowed to leave for a moment. She is your concubine, your woman."
Xu Tianchen was stunned.
Happiness...did it come so suddenly?
Lin Hai, who was watching the fun, didn't understand why: "Master, what are you doing?"
"Create a star!" Chu Qing laughed: "When the wolf-catching army comes out of seclusion, the first task is to change to create a star, the goddess of war of the prairie, the goddess of war of the prairie who saves all people from fire and water."
Taking off his cloak and handing it to Mu Hua, Chu Qing said with a smile: "Go and tell the herdsmen that we are all your subordinates. We will listen to your orders. I will have people deliver the food in a moment."
Mu Hua took the cloak generously and smiled sweetly: "What do I need to pay?"
"Do you care about the civil strife on the grasslands and the deaths of countless herdsmen?"
"not give a damn about."
"Then you can definitely give me what I need, so go ahead."
"good."
After putting on her cloak, Muhua walked towards the herdsmen.
Chu Qing patted Xu Tianchen on the shoulder: "When I said kill her, two stabs."
Xu Tianchen nodded slightly: "One knife in the throat, one knife in the chest."
