The Queen's Engineering Army

Chapter 175 The Messenger Su Qin

Su Lin waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't be so serious."

But Guiguzi said seriously: "I want my apprentice to follow Miss Su and work for Miss Su."

"Oh, really?"

Su Lin was overjoyed, with Su Qin's help, it was like a tiger with wings added.

"Hehe, my two apprentices are teaching the way of combining vertical and horizontal respectively. Zhang Yi has already gone to Qin State, and what their brothers and sisters have learned should be able to apply what they have learned."

Guiguzi trains two apprentices, teaches them separately, and then makes them compete to decide who is better.

Sun Bin and Pang Juan, Su Qin and Zhang Yi.

"I see."

Su Lin felt a little pity secretly, if Zhang Yi could also come to help, with two of the best diplomats in the world in his hands, why not worry about hegemony?

One is not bad, Su Qin is still a little young now, if he has experienced a few years, he will at least be an epic (purple) star.

"This mountain range was heavily blocked by the Chu army, how did Master get in?" Su Lin asked.

"Hehe, can this kind of trick work, old man? There is no place I can't go to, if I want to go." Guiguzi said proudly.

"Since the master is here, let's taste the newly brewed fruit bar in the town." Su Lin said.

"Okay, the old man will not return drunk." Guiguzi said happily.

Chu army camp.

"Huang Xie, why are you back? What did the thief say, when will the grain truck be delivered?" Long Xiang raised his eyebrows and said coldly.

"This is written by the thief himself. Everything you want to say is on it. Please take a look at it." Huang Xie presented a roll of bamboo slips.

"Ok?"

Long Xiang frowned, took the bamboo slip unhappily, and quickly checked the content on it.

"This word..." The corner of Long Xiang's mouth twitched, this word was too ugly, and it took him a long time to recognize the meaning.

That is, Su Lin is willing to surrender, and wants the king of Chu to confer the Chuxi Mountains as a fief, so that he can wait for the dispatch of Chu State in the future.

"That's all, what about the food? What the general wants is food." Long Xiang said angrily.

"The little one doesn't know either. If the general has any reply, I'll go and ask again." Huang Xie was neither humble nor overbearing.

"When you ask clearly, our army is starving to death. Come on, Huang Xie is not good enough to drag him down and whip him twenty lashes." Long Xiang said angrily.

"Here."

Soon, two Chu soldiers took Huang Xie down.

Huang Xie didn't resist, didn't say anything, and followed him to be tortured with a cold face.

"Hmph, the little guy came to my army, I'll see if I'm going to kill you." Long Xiang sneered.

The commander next to him stepped forward and cupped his hands: "General, what will the thief do if he doesn't give him food?"

"No food? Humph, then we will take down the village in one go. No matter how many people die this time, we will attack the village, otherwise we will all starve to death." Long Xiang looked sinister.

If you drag it on, you will definitely starve to death, and you will be severely punished by the king of Chu when you lead your troops back to the Chu State.

It's better to fight hard, as long as the bandits can be eliminated, there will be food and grass in the town, and all problems will be resolved.

"Then what about the one who set fire to the food?" The commander was referring to Shi Qian.

"Go to war tomorrow, behead your head and sacrifice it to the flag!" Long Xiang said coldly.

On the second day, all the soldiers in the Chu Army camp had a full meal, and today they were preparing for the final battle against Dahan Town.

No matter life or death, fight here.

Long Xiang gambled everything, no matter what, he had to win.

"No, no."

Shi Qian was tied up all over his body, and was escorted by Lang Ming Chu soldiers to a high platform, with a big flag with the word "Chu" hanging on the top.

"Hmph, your master treats you like a useless dog, so I will kill you today to sacrifice the flag, and then the army will break through the thief's den and wipe out the bandits in one fell swoop." Long Xiang said coldly.

"Wuuu, don't, I'm still a virgin..."

Shi Qian burst into tears, and was really unwilling to die like this. If God gave him another chance, he would definitely choose to bid farewell to being single before dying.

The soldier watching over Shiqian couldn't help laughing.

"To shut up."

Long Xiang's face was livid, and Shi Qian was disturbed by such a serious occasion of swearing-in.

"cut!"

Long Xiang raised his hand and slammed it down.

The soldier behind nodded, and raised the bronze long sword in his hand. The blade of the sword gleamed slightly coldly under the sunlight, and he knew it was a rare and good sword at a glance.

With one slash of the sword, there is a high probability that Shi Qian's head will be separated from his body.

But there is also a chance that the neck will be stuck, causing double pain to the prisoner.

So beheading is also a technical job, which is not something ordinary people can do.

And the soldier who executed the beheading this time was a pig butcher before, and I believe he can do it.

Shi Qian was so frightened that he closed his eyes, his crotch was already wet, and he seemed to be scared to pee.

Just as the sharp bronze long sword was about to cut off, someone shouted, unsurprisingly.

"The envoy of Dahan Town asks to see you." A messenger soldier ran over, knelt on one knee and cupped his hands.

"You dare to come, haha, I want to see what this thief has to say. If you don't satisfy me, I will just cut down the sacrificial flag like the thief with sly eyebrows." Long Xiang sneered.

It was Su Qin who came. He didn't come alone. He was followed by several militiamen pulling ten carts of grain.

This grain includes not only rice, but also sweet potatoes and wild fruits.

"The food has been delivered, why is there so little?"

Long Xiang wondered to himself, he couldn't figure out what they were going to do, I clearly wanted a hundred carts of grain, but you only brought ten carts.

"Su Qin, the envoy of Dahan Town, see General Long."

Su Qin walked up to the young man Long Xiang, put his hands together and saluted respectfully.

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, Su Qin is well dressed, giving people a sense of intimacy, and being so polite, the disgust in his heart has been reduced by half before the confrontation.

It seems that diplomats have to pass the test, like Shi Qian, who will be an envoy. I guess they don’t want to eat when they see him. How can they talk?
"Oh, it's unheard of for bandits to learn from other countries and send an envoy." Long Xiang sneered.

"Although the general is well-informed, there are many wonders in the world. It's normal not to know some things." Su Qin said unhurriedly.

Long Xiang said loudly: "I, the general, have no time to chat with you. My army has been assembled and I am about to attack your traitor's stronghold. If you are wise, go back and tell your lord to come out and kneel down to surrender."

"General, I am here to save you. Since the general wants to die, there is nothing I can do." Su Qin shook his head and said sadly.

"Save me?" Long Xiang laughed loudly, pointing at Su Qin and laughing until he was out of breath, "I want to hear how you want to save me, General?"

"May I ask General, if your army currently has more than 5000 people, can it capture Dahan Town within a few days?" Su Qin asked.

"It doesn't take a few days, just one day." Long Xiang frowned.

"If it's as the general said, he wouldn't have dispatched troops for such a long time and hasn't broken through. I'm afraid the general has no idea." Su Qin said straight away.

"What do you want to say? If it's nonsense, then General Ben will kill you now." Long Xiang said angrily.

"I said I was here to save the general. According to the general, even if the stronghold can really be breached, how many people will the general have to sacrifice? My lord will definitely resist desperately. Even if it is really broken, my lord Burn all the food and grass, how long can your army's food and grass last?" Su Qin hit the nail on the head.

Long Xiang frowned, he was right, he might not win if he fought, even if he won, he would still starve to death without food.

Unless it is to lead the troops back now, but there is nothing to accomplish so far, and it is even more unwilling to go back.

"What can you do?" Long Xiang asked coldly.

"My lord said that the food and grass for the past few days will be provided by Dahan Town. Now I will accompany the general back to Yindu and present myself to the king of Chu. He said that we are forced by the general's supernatural power and dare not fight any more. We want to surrender to the state of Chu. In the future, to be dispatched by the Chu State, all you need is for the King of Chu to confer a title on my lord and the Chuxi Mountains to my lord."

Su Qin smiled and pointed to the ten carts pulling grain and grass behind, "Here is a little greeting gift from my master."
