Suddenly Cheng Si lowered his head and looked at Yelu Aqi in his hand. The seventh prince had been knocked unconscious and hooded. Cheng Si suddenly had a good idea. Prairie people were the most vindictive. Cheng Si felt that this hatred was too much for Mr. Xiao to hold back.

General Li has been stationed on the border of Sichuan Province for many years, and the hatred of the tribes in the grassland has long been full. Cheng Si ruined a good thing for Liu Xiaojiang back then, so it would be nice to give him some credit today.

Cheng Si directly ordered the city gates to be opened to let Liu Xiaojiang, Shi Xianwei and others into the city. Then he lifted Yelu Aqi up and quickly tapped a few acupuncture points. After a while, the person holding it began to move and began to wake up.

Liu Xiaojiang took the talents to the gate of Qu County, but before he could get someone to call the gate. The city gate slowly opened, and there were many people holding torches inside the city gate. It didn't look like they were welcoming them!

Cheng Si carried Yelu Aqi and walked straight towards General Liu. He suddenly stood up, lifted him in front of him, and said loudly: "The last general is here to return! We have captured the seventh prince of the Yelu tribe according to General Li's order! Please invite Li The general sent someone to verify his identity!"

The scene of thousands of people inside and outside the east city gate of Quxian County was very quiet. Shen Xiancheng was the first to understand Cheng Si's thoughts, and then lowered his head directly.

When Liu Xiaojiang first heard that the seventh prince of the Yelu tribe had been caught, he was so happy that he didn't think about the trap in Cheng Si's words at all.

Lieutenant Shixian did have a competitive mind, but he also had a black heart. He knew that he had discovered the problem, obtained the identity certificate of Prince Yelu Qi, and reported the letter to General Li, which was enough to protect his future official career.

As for the credit for capturing the seventh prince of the Yelu tribe alive, he was afraid that he would lose his life. Unexpectedly, Cheng Si was also open-minded, so he gave up such a big credit directly.

Lieutenant Shixian was very curious as to why the seventh prince appeared in the county town, but it was obviously not a good time to ask out loud at this moment. Shixian Lieutenant glanced at the people in the county government office and suddenly saw Shen Xiancheng, who was holding a soft sword and playing short-handed.

General Liu brought a thousand soldiers to Qu County this time. Qu County cannot station so many soldiers. When Xiao Qingshan got the letter and arrived, Liu Xiaojiang had already recovered from the ecstasy.

After more than two years, Liu Xiaojiang was still a little frightened when he saw Mr. Xiao again. When Lieutenant Shixian saw Mr. Xiao, he quickly walked a few steps to greet him: "Sir Xiao, Mr. Shi and Mr. Huang are back with their people!"

Cheng Si took the opportunity to walk to Xiao Qingshan and told Xiao Qingshan what had just happened. Xiao Qingshan said nothing, raised his hand and patted Cheng Si on the shoulder, silently affirming Cheng Si's approach.

Xiao Qingshan walked up to Liu Xiaojiang and glanced at Yelu Aqi, whose head was still covered by a hood. He reached out sideways and made a gesture of invitation, signaling Liu Xiaojiang to go aside to discuss.

Liu Xiaojiang quickly followed Xiao Qingshan, and the two of them went to a more remote part of the city wall. Xiao Qingshan was the first to speak: "Little general, when we discovered the wolf ambition of the Yelu tribe, we sent two teams of troops."

When Xiao Qingshan said this, he smiled at General Liu with a "you know" expression, and then said: "The people from Zhoucheng are probably arriving soon. The seventh prince of the Yelu tribe, the young general, should be escorted back to the garrison as soon as possible. The military camp is better!"

When Liu Xiaojiang heard that Li Quanyong would send someone over, he knew with his toes that it would be Zhou Tongpan, an old acquaintance who escorted him back to Sichuan Province. "Hmph!" Liu Xiaojiang couldn't help snorting coldly.

It's not obvious on the surface, but Liu Xiaojiang is also muttering in his heart, "I have 1000 people here! Even the guy surnamed Zhou can't take people away from me!"

For the first time, Xiao Qingshan felt that he was also very smart. He could actually guess what others were thinking from their faces and expressions.

"Little General, now is not the time to strive for success. We still have to work together to defend against the enemy!" Xiao Qingshan couldn't help but speak out to persuade General Liu.

Liu Xiaojiang also knew the importance of this matter. He brought people here to search for the seventh prince of the Yelu tribe, and now he has been caught. There was no need to add extraneous details, so he saluted Xiao Qingshan with his hands clasped in fists.

"Thank you so much, Magistrate Xiao! I will take the people to rest outside the city tonight, and I will take them back to the garrison camp early tomorrow morning." General Liu was very grateful to Magistrate Xiao for giving such great credit to them, General Li.

Xiao Qingshan originally wanted to trap Yelu Aqi as a hostage in Qu County to ensure the safety of Qu County. But he also knew that Yelu Aqi, even if he was Quxian's amulet, was likely to be Quxian's life-saving talisman.

Now that Yelu Aqi can be handed over, Xiao Qingshan is very willing. However, it cannot be so easy to take Yelu Aqi away, and he must leave some life-saving capital for Qu County.

Xiao Qingshan grabbed Liu Xiaojiang and turned around to leave, "Little General, if the seventh prince of the Yelu tribe stays in Qu County, he will be the hostage of the Yelu tribe! He can protect the safety of our Qu County!"

Liu Xiaojiang looked at Mr. Xiao with a worried look in confusion, feeling that Mr. Xiao was trying to trick him again. Liu Xiaojiang tugged on his sleeve several times, but failed to pull the sleeve out of Xiao Qingshan's hand.

"What do you think, Mr. Xiao?" Liu Xiaojiang really didn't want to answer Xiao Qingshan's words, but he had no choice! Everyone can prove which seventh prince of the Yelu tribe was captured by Magistrate Xiao.

If he doesn't agree to Master Xiao's request, even if he takes the person away, the credit won't be his. If Magistrate Xiao were to accuse Li Quanyong of taking credit, taking credit on the battlefield would be a taboo.

Xiao Qingshan was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with Liu Xiaojiang: "Liu Xiaojiang will take a few people to escort the man back to the garrison camp as soon as possible. It is better for the remaining soldiers to stay and protect Qu County."

After saying this, Xiao Qingshan looked at Liu Xiaojiang sincerely, as if he had no idea that his request was too much. They are border troops and should not have any contact with local officials.

Although Cheng Si was some distance away, his ears were very good and he could hear the conversation between the two clearly. Cheng Si feels that Mr. Xiao and Military Master Xie have changed a lot after being together for a long time.

Cheng Si raised his hand and touched the token in his arms. He was a personal guard of Duke Li's mansion. His token could borrow troops from the local garrison if necessary. Moreover, the number of borrowed troops cannot exceed one thousand generals.

Originally, Cheng Si planned to ask General Liu to bring the big troublesome Yelu Aqi back to the garrison camp, and use his token to borrow troops to keep the soldiers he brought this time to guard Qu County.

However, Cheng Si thinks Master Xiao’s method is also good. Wanting to capture the enemy leader alive, he left the soldiers behind to protect the safety of Qu County.

Moreover, Cheng Si believed that Liu Xiaojiang would definitely agree. Then, Cheng Si heard that Master Xiao and Liu Xiaojiang started bargaining over how many people they would leave behind.

A more accurate statement is how many people Liu Xiaojiang can bring back, and the bargaining price is based on a unit of 50 people.

"The young general is very skilled in martial arts. It's enough to bring 50 people back!"

“I most want to leave 500 people in Qu County!”

"The seventh prince of the Yelu tribe should stay in Qu County to ensure the safety of Qu County!"

"I'll leave you 600 people, okay?"

"Actually, the young general thinks that 50 people are a bit too few. 100 people should be enough!"

When Mr. Xiao gritted his teeth and said 100 people, Cheng Si couldn't help but want to laugh. Suddenly, Cheng Si really heard laughter next to him. He turned around and saw that it was Shen Xian Cheng who was also snickering.
