Chapter 880 Servant Army
Chapter 880
The reception of the little prince was very satisfied with everyone. After all, he took out the best food, wine, and even opened his palace.
The tired Qin soldiers relaxed and began to drink and eat until they stopped at night.
Cao Shen looked at many drunk Qin soldiers and couldn't help but shake his head and said to Zhi beside him,
"Thank you tonight for another night with your soldiers."
Although there is almost no force here that can pose a threat to the Qin army, this vigilance cannot be relaxed. The other Qin army is no longer reliable and can only rely on the other party.
Zhi nodded without hesitation, and then took the order and left.
He soon took his people to the highest place outside the palace, checking the situation of the entire palace. If there is any change, he can warn him and fight back immediately.
After arranging the manpower, he also joined the inspection ranks.
Soon, night fell and the temperature gradually became colder.
At this time, a burly and powerful Qin Junshi walked to Zhi and said,
"Young Master, let me patrol here, you can go and rest."
Zhi said with a smile at this time,
"There are no princes in the army, only centurions. As a Meng family, I naturally have to abide by such regulations."
He was naturally Meng Zhi, and at the beginning he was an ordinary Qin army on the Great Wall like everyone else.
But his skillful bow and horse skills quickly rose up.
Later, when he learned from Meng Tian that when the Qin Dynasty was going to send cavalry to raid the Qiang people and the Yuezhi grassland, he secretly joined the cavalry.
Then all the way here, he is now a real centurion who has been promoted from military merits.
And there are also credits that are not worthwhile. After you go back, you will definitely be able to get a thousand generals!
This promotion speed is also extremely fast.
Hearing this, Shi Chang couldn't help but show a look of praise.
Although the other party has a direct descendant of the Meng family, he has almost no privileges and starts from the bottom step by step.
The promotion is also based on real military achievements.
It's really good.
Of course, there is almost nothing here because he was sent to protect the other party, and he was not the only one.
Otherwise, such a long-term raid would be in the midst of countless chaos.
The other party may not be able to survive until now. On the battlefield, a pit or a wave of arrows can kill a person's life.
Not to mention that the other party also has the education of the Meng family since childhood, and it is not something that ordinary people can compare in all aspects.
A true ordinary person is just like him. He is a leader when he is in his prime. He needs a little luck to be able to get to the position of centurion.
Although Shi Chang sighed in his heart, he still had to persuade him that the other party's identity was countless times more noble than theirs.
Just as he was about to speak, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from the side. He looked over with great vigilance. He found that the little prince was coming over with several servants and translators.
"General, I have someone prepare some hot soup and food to send to you."
Meng Zhi waved his hand at this time and said with a bit of seriousness.
"During the army's duty, it is not allowed to enjoy it, so the prince will put it aside first."
"But it will be cold later, you..."
Before the other party could finish his words, Meng Zhi said directly,
"The military rules are unbreakable, just leave them alone."
Hearing this, the little prince did not mind at all, but instead showed an admiration.
No wonder these Qin troops are so powerful.
After putting the thing down, the little prince did not leave immediately, but hesitated aside, as if he was hesitating.
Meng Zhi asked at this time,
"Is there anything else to do with the prince?"
The little prince seemed to have decided something at this time, approached Meng Zhi a few steps, and then said sincerely,
"General, as you said before, this city is now the border town of Daqin, so the people in the city are the people of Daqin."
"I heard that the people of the Qin Dynasty will be treated preferentially, and we hope so too."
Hearing this, Meng Zhi couldn't help but smile and said,
"The little prince is indeed determined and actually understands these things."
"I just don't understand it completely. Although this city is already a border town of Daqin, it is not that easy to become a citizen of Daqin."
Speaking of this, Meng Zhi said with a little pride,
"If outsiders want to become real Daqin people, they must shed blood for Daqin! Only after three generations can they be real Daqin people."
This rule was not determined by him, but was proposed by His Highness the Crown Prince after conquering the grassland.
He also felt that there was no problem.
But in the face of such harsh conditions, the little prince was not worried but happy, and said directly,
"In this way, please let my subjects and people join the Qin army. We are willing to serve the Qin Dynasty!"
He came for this.
Meng Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the other party had such a plan.
After thinking about it, he did not refuse directly. They were far away from the Qin Dynasty, and the soldiers were extremely difficult to replenish supplies and transport them, so they could only use materials locally.
It is also a good choice to recruit some local servants. Of course, he cannot make decisions on this matter directly and needs to discuss it with Cao Shen.
So back,
"The general knows this, and he will wait for a reply to you later."
The little prince nodded happily. Just as he was about to leave, suddenly there were noises coming from far away from the city. Soon, a servant staggered over and said hurriedly,
"The prince is not good. There are many fleeing people coming outside the city, and they also say that there are pursuers from the Huns behind."
The little prince's face suddenly changed drastically, and he quickly explained the situation to Meng Zhi beside him.
When Meng Zhi heard this, he was not panicked at all, but returned confidently and calmly.
"It's okay, there is the flag of my Daqin on the top of the city."
Seeing this scene, the little prince still felt a little confused. He scared away the Huns before, and at least there was a team of cavalry. Now can he do it with just a flag?
But soon another servant came over and said in surprise and joy.
"Prince, the Huns have retreated."
Hearing this, the little prince glanced at Meng Zhi in disbelief and then said goodbye, but he had already made up his mind that as long as the entire tribe meets the conditions, they will join the Qin army!
After the little prince saluted again and left, Meng Zhi resumed the inspection.
At this time, Cao Shen, who was writing a military newspaper to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, also received a news report from the Qin army, but he was not too worried that the Huns now dared not go to war with the Qin army.
Moreover, the other party's plunder is beneficial to their rule.
The only thing he was worried about was Liu Bang's hidden thoughts.
These preparations are for prevention.
Thinking of this, Cao Shen couldn't help but look at the direction of the Qin Dynasty and said to himself,
"Pei Gong, Pei Gong, don't be confused."
After a little bit of emotion, Cao Shen continued to write a military newspaper, and he wanted to tell His Highness the Crown Prince the information he had obtained these days as soon as possible.
The next morning, a fast horse headed towards the direction of the Qin Dynasty.
Time flies, and more than ten days later, the Xianyang Palace of the Great Qin Dynasty.
Zhao Langzheng looked at a letter with joy, and after reading it, he said to the messenger beside him.
"Tell Brother Hai, you've done a good job. No matter how many silver mines you found on that island, you'll dig them back!"
