"The general was training at the hand crossbow camp. Later, he received news that a group of Xiqi people had fled to Wangyue Mountain. The general wanted to let the brothers practice their skills, so he took the brothers from the first and second teams of the hand crossbow camp there. , and ended up meeting the eldest prince. The general wanted to save the eldest prince, but he was afraid of hurting the eldest prince, so he could only watch the eldest prince being kidnapped by the Xiqi people."

Wei Fu briefly explained the situation, but did not mention who sent the letter.

"when did it happen?"

Su Zhenyuan's face darkened.

"About half an hour ago."

Wei Fu thought for a while and said.

"Half an hour ago..."

Su Zhenyuan frowned. He had been busy with military affairs. Looking back now, he had never seen the eldest prince since his appearance last night. He thought that the eldest prince was staying in the camp or had returned to Pei. City, unexpectedly he was kidnapped by the Xiqi people.

only……

A flash of doubt flashed in Su Zhenyuan's heart. The eldest prince had more than a hundred personal guards around him. Even if half of them were sent to the battlefield, there should still be dozens of people around him. The master was kidnapped, so why have these personal guards never come to report?

If it were in the past, the majestic prince of Dali Kingdom would be kidnapped by an enemy country in front of his eyes. This would definitely be a great shame for Dali and a huge blow to his momentum. The most important thing is to quickly find a way to rescue the eldest prince, but now , the war between the two countries is imminent, so we can’t take care of this for the time being.

"I will deal with you carefully about leaving without permission in the future. You go back first!"

Su Zhenyuan glared at Wei Fu and said coldly.

"Master Hou, where is the prince..."

Wei Fu was stunned for a moment and asked hurriedly.

"Xiqi took the prince hostage, so nothing will happen for a while. There are more important things at the moment!"

Su Zhenyuan waved his hand and told Wei Fu and the others to step back.

Wei Fu and the three of them, look at me and I look at you. The Marquis has already said this, so they can only do as he is told and immediately exit the handsome tent.

After the three people left, Su Zhenyuan took out a secret letter that he had just received not long ago from his sleeve. It was written by the Emperor of Dali Kingdom. There were only four words on it. It was done in an expedient manner. At first, Su Zhenyuan only thought that this was what the emperor wanted him to do. Let go of your hands and feet, feel free to use troops against Xiqi boldly, but now it seems that these four words have another layer of meaning.

And this deeper meaning is probably related to the fact that the eldest prince was abducted by the Xiqi people. Naturally, the Holy Master far away in the capital could not have known in advance that the eldest prince was going to be kidnapped by the Xiqi people. The only reasonable explanation is that the eldest prince was kidnapped and... Not half an hour ago, but earlier. The Holy One had long known that the eldest prince had been kidnapped, but he did not intend to send anyone to rescue him. The meaning of this...

Su Zhenyuan took a deep breath, narrowed his eyes slightly, and fell into deep thought.

On the other side, the eldest prince Chu Chang originally had dozens of personal guards, but now he was guarding behind Chu Yanzhen. There were more than 2,700 soldiers in front of him. You looked at me, I looked at you, and no one said a word.

"What Chu Chu can give you, I can also give you. What Chu Chu can't give you, I can also give you! As long as you follow me wholeheartedly, I will not treat any of you badly! Whoever is If you don’t want to follow me, you can leave now, and I will never be embarrassed!”

Chu Yanzhen glanced at the more than 2,000 soldiers below. All the more than 2,000 people stood in place, and no one left. In their opinion, whether they were following the eldest prince Chu Feng or King Zhao Chu Yanzhen, they were all It doesn't make any difference whether you go into battle to kill the enemy, as long as you have enough benefits to work for someone, it's the same.

"King Zhao, what the eldest prince promised us before was to reward one gold for killing one person, to be rewarded as a centurion for ten people, to be captain of a thousand for fifty people, and to become a general for one hundred people! What can you give us?"

A burly man with a hideous scar on his face asked in a low voice.

"I have said that what Chu Chang can give you, I can also give you! As long as you follow me wholeheartedly, the benefits will never be less for you!"

Chu Yanzhen's eyes fell on the scar-faced man. Although his voice was not high, it was full of doubts. The scar-faced man quickly lowered his head.

"Kill one person, ten gold pieces, ten men as captains of thousands, fifty men as generals, and hundreds of men as lieutenant generals!"

Chu Yanzhen paused and glanced at the more than 2,000 soldiers below again.

"A reward of ten gold for killing one person? Ten people can make a captain of thousands? Fifty people can make a general?"

"That one hundred people is the middle-ranking general! God, compared with King Zhao, that eldest prince is too stingy!"

Everyone immediately started talking and their faces were full of excitement.

"King Zhao, are you serious about this?"

The scar-faced man who had lowered his head quickly raised his head with fiery eyes.

"A gentleman's words are hard to follow, and I will keep my word! But I will have to wait until the war is over before returning to the capital to fulfill it! This time I went south, I did not bring any gold or silver with me, nor did I have any subordinates. The army cannot be appointed for the time being."

Chu Yanzhen said.

"That's natural. Even if we are given money to kill the enemy in battle, we can't take it with us."

Scarface grinned. He wanted a military position more than money. With his skills, it was not difficult to kill ten people. With luck, fifty people would not be without a chance! If it succeeds, he will be a high-ranking general from now on! How can I not be excited when I think of this.

"In this battle, all those who have achieved military merit will be recorded. When they return to the capital, they will all be rewarded!"

Chu Yanzhen took another strong dose and turned to the secretary beside him.

"King Zhao is righteous! Even our previous military exploits are included!"

"We will follow King Zhao to the death!"

All the soldiers knelt on the ground and swore allegiance to Chu Yanzhen.

Seeing all the people's hearts win over, a smile flashed in Chu Yanzhen's eyes. Whether it was the benefits promised just now or this, they were all designed to win over people's hearts. Although these rewards may sound scary and generous, but if you think about it carefully, it will become clear. To be able to detect the fishiness involved, you must first survive this battle before you can claim the reward.

Not to mention that Chu Yanzhen was able to obtain a lot of military exploits by relying on these soldiers, and the benefits he received were nothing compared to the rewards he promised. Secondly, if these soldiers could survive this battle, then He must have real materials and be a rare and fierce general. Such a person would be eager to have him under his command.

So if you can buy people's hearts and get so many benefits, why not do it.

On the other side, in Su Qianqian's tent, even though her father had warned her early in the morning, she still couldn't help but feel worried about the safety of her father and her brothers. She was hesitant to go out and inquire about the status of her father and brothers. .

The third brother, Su Zhenxi, looked a little worried as he hurriedly walked in from outside.
