Li Wei, who was so angry that he rushed to Zhao Xin, reached out to his hand and smeared the bloody face, and said loudly, "The lieutenant, all of them have been cleaned up, and no one has escaped."

Li Wei, who was originally worried about Zhao Xin, admired him at this moment and had no complaints in his heart. This is the straightforwardness of the soldiers. They will always be convinced by people with stronger abilities than them. Any famous general who can be supported by the soldiers will be impressed by their own real materials.

Before Zhao Xin could reply, Zhang Xin carefully fumbled on Gu Ji, who had been dead for a long time, took out a piece of cloth and said loudly, "Capital, a letter was found here."

Zhao Xin hurriedly walked over, reached out to take the yellow cloth, and his hand touched it smoothly, and the precious silk was at that time. Zhao Xin was suddenly in awe of his heart, knowing that it was probably a very high-level letter. After reading it carefully, his face changed again.

"What is it written on it?" Seeing that Zhao Xin's face was a little wrong, Li Wei leaned over his head curiously and asked.

Zhao Xin did not speak, but handed the cloth to the two of them and signaled them to take a look.

I saw several rows of small regular script characters in Zhao State written as thin as mosquitoes and flies. The letter said: The edict ordered the deputy general Nie Gai and general Ji Xin to collude with the people of Zhao to rebel. Now I send the sect to order Gu Ji to lead the imperial guards to kill the rebels. You should send the army to cooperate. The end of the letter was stamped with the bright red seal of the King of Zhongshan.

Li Wei looked confused and put down the letter and looked at Zhao Xin with some confusion. He didn't know what it meant. Zhang Xin looked happy and said happily. "Captain, this Ji Xin is the guardian of Shiyi. The meaning of the letter is that there is an internal strife in Zhongshan. Xiao Wang of Zhongshan wants to send someone to kill him and seize power."

Zhao Xin nodded, thought for a moment, and ordered in a deep voice, "Go and bring a prisoner, as high as possible."

"yes."

The captive was quickly brought up. He was a young man with a handsome face and a delicate skin. Seeing the fierce Li Wei beside him, his legs trembled.

"What's your name?" Zhao Xin asked.

The young man hesitated and said hesitantly, "My name is..."

Zhao Xin let out a look, and Li Wei, who was beside him, decisively pulled out the dagger and inserted it hard on the boy's leg. Blood instantly burst out, and the boy screamed in pain.

Li Wei showed off his snow-white teeth and said with a grim smile, "If you hesitate any more, I will pierce a hundred holes in your body, so that the blood in your body will flow out slowly little by little."

"Yes, yes, yes." The young man in Zhongshan hurriedly knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy, his face full of panic.

"What is your name, who is it."

The young man dared not hesitate. He quickly said, "My name is Yiqian. I am the general of the Zhongshan National Imperial Guards and the son of Zuo Dafu Yiyi."

Zhao Xin and Zhang Xin smiled at each other, their eyes understood, and they both listened attentively to Li Wei quickly asking questions, not giving Yi Qian time to think. If he was a little late, he would slash his dagger directly.

I have to say that Zhang Xin has a unique vision. The prisoner he picked was an imperial guard officer at a young age, and his skin was not as tender as a person who had been on the battlefield for a long time. He must be a child of a high-ranking official. Anyone who relies on his own status is mostly greedy for life and fears death. With a little coercion and temptation, he will spit out everything. He is the one who is the one who is the one who is the most popular among the old military leaders.

After hearing the words named Yi Qian, the three of them finally understood what was said in the letter.

It turned out that something big happened in the Tuling Shou of Zhongshan Kingdom. Yuan Qian, the beloved general of Zhongshan King, was suddenly assassinated in the mansion. The king of Zhongshan, Yi Shang, ordered the prime minister Sima Xi to investigate the matter thoroughly. After a thorough investigation, Sima Xi pointed all the suspicious fingers at Ji Xin, the guardian of Shiyi City who had already had a feud with Yuan Qian, and found letters from Ji Xin, who was connected to Zhao State from Lingshou.

In a furious state, the King of Zhongshan immediately sent his confidant Gu Ji, and ordered him to take the imperial guards to Shiyi to kill Ji Xin with the king's edict, and Gu Ji continued to lead the Shiyi army to resist the Zhao army.

It’s a pity that this Guji, who was so excited to take up his post, was really not very lucky. He was intercepted by the sudden Zhao army led by Zhao Xin, who was blocked by Zhao Xin. Not only did he lose Wang Zhao, but his life was even lost in this wilderness.

After hearing these words, Zhang Xin looked excited and said happily, "Captain, this is a great information. Zhongshan monarch and ministers are disinterested. If our Zhao State is good at making use of it, it will definitely be of great benefit to me. We should quickly report back to our master's father and decide."

Li Wei couldn't help but interrupt, "I've been here to this place and I still don't forget the internal struggle. How can Zhongshan Kingdom not perish? It seems that they have to wait until the country is destroyed before they know what unity is."

Zhao Xin didn't say a word, just lowered his head and thought, as if he was thinking about something. Suddenly, he looked up and looked at Yi Qian with a strange look. He asked for a long time, "How about the food and grass in Zhongshan now?"

Na Yiqian stammered, "Reply...Report to the general, I am just a small battalion officer, and I don't know much about this. However, our military ration supply is getting less and less day by day. When I went to collect grain last time, I heard the grain officer complain that the food was consumed too much, and it may not last long...

Zhao Xin recited silently for a moment in his heart, and suddenly asked again, "Do you have someone familiar with him in Shiyi? That Ji Xinke recognizes you?"

Na Yiqian quickly shook his head and said nervously, "I have been in Lingshou and have no acquaintance in Shiyi. Ji Xin and my father know each other and have added me a few times before, but it was all a few years ago. I was still young at that time."

Zhao Xin nodded, but stopped asking questions, just lowered his head and thought about it.

Seeing that Zhao Xin's face was calm, his heart was getting more and more, and at the end he cried out and begged for a mercy, "General, don't kill me, I have said everything I know, you can't kill me."

Li Wei, who was standing beside him, was impatient and gave two Zhao troops a wink to get the crying Yi Qian out.

Looking at Zhao Xin, Li Wei said in a deep voice, "Captain, you are the boss, what do you think we will do now."

Zhao Xin did not speak immediately, but looked at Zhang Xin and said, "Tell me what you think."

Zhang Xin has been in the army for many years and has much more experience than the two, so Zhao Xin first came to ask for his opinions.

Zhang Xin thought for a moment and said with a sigh, "Our purpose of coming out this time has been achieved, and we have determined that the military rations and grass in Zhongshan are tight. We also obtained an extremely important information, which is very beneficial to the policy adjustment of our Zhao State to Zhongshan. The Lord's Father Shengming will definitely reward us heavily, so I personally think we should make a quick decision and return to the camp quickly to avoid exogenous troubles."

Zhao Xin's face showed a glimmer of light after hearing this, and suddenly spoke, "I think our gains are far from enough, and it has invisibly helped Zhongshan Kingdom a great favor."

Zhang Xin was stunned and said in surprise: "What does this mean?"

"Look, this Gu Ji was originally going to kill Ji Xin, and changing generals at the last stage was a big taboo in the army. If Gu Ji succeeded, then Shiyi was in chaos and our Zhao army would have a chance to take advantage of it. If Gu Ji Ji failed, it would be even better. In this way, Shiyi and Lingshou would have a different intention, and they would surrender to us without our attack."

Li Wei said with a somewhat ugly expression, "So we won a big victory, but we still made a mistake?"

Zhao Xin did not comment, nodded or shook his head, but focused on his thoughts, and suddenly looked up and asked the two of them, "Do you think I am a bit similar to the one Yi Qian?"

Zhang Xin thought about it and nodded, "It seems to be a bit similar. I didn't pay attention just now. Now when I look carefully, it seems that it really looks a bit similar."

Li Wei said disapprovingly: "It's time? You still have the heart to discuss this issue. What can you do if you look like? Could it be that you plan to dress up as him..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Zhao Xin nodding seriously. Li Wei was shocked and said, "What are you pretending to be him? You don't want to take this edict to Shiyi to continue to pass the orders?"

Zhao Xin laughed and nodded carelessly, "Sorry, I'm just thinking this."

Zhang Xin and Li Wei looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.

Zhang Xin said anxiously: "Captain, this matter must not be done. It is too risky. If you are not careful, all our brothers will throw their lives here."

Zhao Xin shook his head disregardedly. "Don't worry, I'm not going to take my brothers there this time. I want to try my luck alone. If I succeed, it will naturally be a good thing, but if I fail, I can escape alone with my skills."

Seeing that the two of them seemed to have something to say, Zhao Xin directly frightened his face and ordered in a deep voice: "I have decided on this matter. You don't need to say much, just cooperate."

"Yes." The two had no choice but to bow their heads and take the order.

Since the matter has been finalized, the three of them discussed the details again. However, Li Wei suddenly remembered something and said, "What should I do if I am so captive?"

Zhao Xin's eyelids twitched, and suddenly became silent, but he didn't say anything. Zhang Xin also thought something and turned his eyes away.

Only then did Li Wei realize his extra questions. They had only a hundred cavalry and sneaked into the hinterland of Zhongshan again, and it was impossible to escort more than 60 prisoners on the road. Not to mention that the speed was greatly reduced, if someone took the opportunity to escape the report, the fate of Zhao Xin and his team could be imagined. Not to mention pretending to enter Shiyi, it would be difficult to save their lives.

This is war. Whether you want to or not, or whether you want it or not, at the beginning of the war, everyone's lives no longer belong to you.

Therefore, the fate of those prisoners has long been destined. When they throw down their weapons and beg for mercy, they should know that they cannot escape death. But humans are such strange animals. Whenever they have a glimmer of hope, even if they are illusory, they will fight for it and seize this only life-saving straw.

So they did not choose to die on the battlefield, but instead put down their weapons shamefully.

The three of them looked away, but no one was willing to speak out. Although they were brave and wary, they were at ease when they cut off the enemy's head. But that was just against the enemy, not these prisoners who put down their weapons and begged for surrender. Massacre of prisoners would shame any upright soldier's heart of honor.

After all, they are still too young and cannot reach the state of being cruel and ruthless.

The three of them were silent for a long time, and finally Zhang Xin slowly spoke, "I'll go and see if I can pry out some useful things from their mouths."

After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving the two in the room.

After a while, screams rang out outside the house, with loud curses and begging, but they finally returned to peace.

After hurriedly packing up, Zhao Jun continued to move forward as planned. Zhao Xin walked silently in front of Zhang Xin for a while, suddenly slowed down and calmed down to him. After being silent, he spoke, "Thank you."

"There is nothing to thank for." Zhang Xin did not look back, but said lightly with his face on his face; "There must be someone to do things, and after all, I am also for myself."

"Captain, I will say a few words to you. I, Zhang Xin, have no other skills, but I am self-aware. I am a few years older than you, but I am not outstanding in qualifications. I just rely on my father to take up the seat today. If I am lucky enough to be a lieutenant in the future, I may be able to become a lieutenant. This is the limit of my ability."

"But you are different. You are so qualified and highly valued by your father. Your future achievements will definitely be far above me. If that is the case, I will do this kind of dirty handed things, so as not to criticize others when you are rising in the future."
