The night was gradually deepening, and in the humble camp, a Qin soldier in charge of the guard folded his yawn and leaned lazily against the outlying
There’s nothing to guard anyway, there’s not even a dog in this sh*tty place.
If it wasn’t for the sake of saving face, he would have wanted to go straight back to sleep.
After following the other side back and forth for the past few days, without even getting a good night’s sleep, everyone was tired.
Of course they were tired, but there were always some gains.
They would soon be going to the western city-state to capture slaves, selling them to the country would be another huge profit.
He had come out with a small fortune this time, and when he went back he still had his knighthood and fields, so being a rich man would definitely not be any problem.
In this way, he is much stronger than his ordinary colleagues.
Hmph, now these people look down on those of them who participate in the slave business, when the time comes to go back let those people have a good eyeful. Remember in a second
How much these people look down on themselves now, how much they will be jealous of themselves when the time comes!
Besides, capturing slaves is also a way to weaken these city-states, something that is also good for Great Qin and good for themselves, why can’t they do it?
General Liu is right, it’s just some reputation, it’s not like reputation can be a meal.
There are still some generals who are directly controlling the herdsmen to graze their livestock, so what’s the difference between that and them?
In this world now, honest people deserve to be bullied!
Qin Jun thought silently in his heart, not knowing whether it was to convince others or himself.
Just at this time a faint movement suddenly appeared beside him, Qin Jun looked over with some hesitation, but did not alert immediately, and even took a few steps that way, wanting to see what it was.
Only in the next instant, a black shadow flashed past Qin Jun, only to feel a pungent sweetness in his throat, and he could no longer speak.
The centurion slowly placed the man on the ground, killing the other party, he didn’t feel any sense of guilt.
Those who protect traitors are naturally also traitors.
Since it was treason, these people were no longer his fellow soldiers.
Removing the other man’s tunic, and then handing his bow and arrows to his other remaining companion, the
Signalling for the other to meet him outside, he then quietly returned to the original position of the Qin army, and the centurion began to observe the rest of the Qin army around him.
Luckily, no one noticed him, and everyone was lazing around.
The centurion both breathed a sigh of relief and felt a pang of sadness, these once most elite Qin troops were no longer Qin troops.
The centurion glanced at the tent where General Liang was located, he had already memorised the arrangement during the day.
Of course did not immediately go forward now is not the time.
Of course did not immediately go forward now is not the time.
Rather, he also followed the example of the others and lazily lay down.
The night is getting deeper and deeper, the grassland mosquitoes and dew cold, many Qin troops are directly back to their own tents.
Only then did the centurion look at the sky and the surrounding area, and slowly approached the other side’s tent in the night.
The night was cool, and the only sounds around were a burst of insects and the snoring of the Qin troops.
He soon reached the front of the tent, and it was a good thing that there were no guards outside the other side’s tent.
Taking out his hidden dagger, the centurion took a deep breath before easing his footsteps and slowly walking inside the tent.
At this time, the tent was pitch black inside the tent fortunately the place was relatively small, he was still able to determine the position of the other party, only that he could not distinguish the head and tail.
Step by step carefully approaching each other.
Just no matter how careful, the foot is still unavoidable, issued a burst of slight ringing sound.
The position of the other party’s bunk seemed to have heard the sound as well, and moved slightly, letting out a sound of puzzlement as he half-slept, half-awake.
But this also allowed the centurion to determine the position of the other party’s head, at this time without the slightest hesitation, the centurion directly stride forward to put the dagger to the other party’s neck and said.
“If you dare to shout, you will be killed at once!”
And then in a low voice, he asked.
“Who is the mastermind of your treason? And what are you plotting with the Huns!”
This was Zhang Liang who only felt a numbness, he never thought that he would wake up resting on the grassland after a few days of toil and that he would actually have an extra dagger on his neck.
It was just as well that it didn’t take long for him to come back to his senses when his mind was overly intelligent,, and, in his mind, he quickly calculated that
Although he did not know what the other party was, but just based on this question he knew that the other party did not know much, and it was the Qin army!
Composed his mind, he quickly said.
“Don’t worry, I won’t shout.”
“Just who says I am treasonable, I am merely continuing the negotiations between me and the Huns.”
“Whose people are you? If you kill me by mistake and cause damage to Great Qin, you can’t bear the consequences of this!”
To this kind of person is to use great righteousness to oppress.
But who knew that the other party would reply back extremely dryly.
“You don’t need to be sophomoric, I saw with my own eyes that affectionate look between you and the Hun nobles.”
“Tell me who was the mastermind, and why you killed my brother and burned the grain and grass!”
Hearing this, Zhang Liang’s heart suddenly understood a few things and then said.
“You are a general in the army, and I am a general of Great Qin! With an official title bestowed by His Majesty!”
“You don’t distinguish between black and white, and threatened the Great Qin nobles, now you are the one who is treasonous…”
“You don’t distinguish between black and white, threatening Da Qin nobles, now you’re the one committing treason…”
Zhang Liang also wanted to use the Great Qin titles to oppress the other party, because in Great Qin where military merits were paramount, official titles were extremely favourable weapons!
These were his words, and before he could finish he felt the dagger on his neck move, a warm sensation flowed out of his neck, and he heard the centurion life say that
“If you don’t say anything, next time I will cut your throat!”
A chill ran through Zhang Lian’s heart, he didn’t expect the other party to be so resolute, completely unaffected by his words, the
But anyone with a little bit of culture would more or less be affected by his words, as to think long term.
In case he really killed the wrong person, then his own knighthood and so on would be affected.
As long as the other party hesitates and has concerns, he has the certainty of controlling the other party with his words!
But these reckless people will only do things based on their passion!
In his heart, he cursed the other party for being damn reckless!
Zhang Liang’s mind turned extremely fast, he had to save himself, he was unwilling and unable to die here, and finally before the other party became impatient, he took a slight breath and said.
“Fine, since you want to know who, I will tell you!”
After saying that, he paused for a moment, turned his right hand into a palm, and then said.
“The real mastermind is Liu Bang, the current commander of the Qin army!”
Hearing this, even though the centurion had had many conjectures in his mind, at this time, he could not help but be stunned and
How could he not have thought that the commander-in-chief of them all would be a traitor!
But right at this moment, Zhang Liang ruthlessly pushed back, allowing a gap to appear between his neck and the dagger, and his palm, which had been prepared long ago, was placed in the middle, while roaring angrily, the
“Enemy attack!”
Suddenly attacked, the centurion could only make a vicious stroke, not caring whether he had killed the other party or not, he rolled over and went out of the tent, and then angrily roared, “The enemy is attacking!
“Mastermind Liu Bang, go!”
He then fled towards his brother’s location, in the opposite direction!
Soon the tiny camp was in chaos!
Zhang Liang came out with bloodstained hands, looked at the direction of the other party’s escape, and said to the other Qin troops.
“Leave two of us, the rest of us go after him and kill him, or we will all die!”
After ordering this, he turned on his horse and headed directly towards Liu Bang’s camp.
They had to move fast, if they waited for the Qin army to learn the news, they would be dead!
