Until he could not see the Qin army's camp, Zhao Qi stopped the horses suddenly and turned around and looked at his son Zhao Xilie angrily.

"How can you make your own decision?"

Zhao Xilie looked at his father and pretended to be surprised: "Father, what are you talking about?"

"Exercise, exercise" Seeing his son's attitude, Zhao Qi was furious, "Do you know how much money and food is needed to organize an exercise of more than 100,000 people? How much silver reward is needed? This is just a regular expense. If you include others, you will never be able to get it without hundreds of thousands of taels of silver?"

"Of course I know." Zhao Xilie said lightly: "But father, you have also seen that Lu Chao believes that the Han Kingdom has no intention of using force to us. He sent 20,000 troops, but just demonstrated to the Han people. Don't we need to do this? Showing our own force to the Han people and showing that we still have the ability to fight, I think this is necessary. We always have money, and we can still squeeze out if we squeeze."

"If you don't be a leader, you don't know how expensive it is. If you have the ability, come and see." Zhao Qi said angrily.

"My father provides me with half of what I need, and I will think of the rest myself." Zhao Xilie said: "Father, in fact, this exercise is for the Han people, and the other hand, I also want Lu Chao to take a look. Although my big Zhao is in Pingyang, he is not something he can bully just if he wants to bully me. If I get angry, I will still show him good looks. I will sway and sway my face when I lead 20,000 people. I really don't treat us as human beings."

"Don't do anything random." Zhao Qi looked at his angry son, and a hint of panic appeared in his voice. "The foundation we can still exist now is because Daqin still needs us. If you offend Lu Chao indiscriminately, we will be done. You should know Lu Chao's background. Not to mention that he is now the commander of Qin State, his master alone is enough to control the government. How about Fan Sui, the chief assistant of the Qin Dynasty, offended them, and he was sent to serve in front of the army. That is the minister appointed by King Wulie of Qin before his death."

Zhao Xilie sighed and nodded silently.

"Be careful, the Qin people must not offend them now. After I go back, I will find a way to collect materials and silver. I hope I can make Lu Chao satisfied."

Looking at the hunched back of his father who was riding his horse slowly forward, Zhao Xilie felt sad and also felt a little disappointed. His father was no longer the hero who used to be decisive and decisive in his past and would not frown at all. Li Mingjun was right. What he did now cannot be revealed to his father at all, otherwise it would definitely be a tragedy.

The father might still fantasize that the Qin people would protect him, but Zhao Xilie understood through Lu Chao's attitude towards their father and son today that this was just his wishful thinking. Once he told his plan to his father, he might have to report it to the Qin people, thinking that this would be able to protect Zhao. But the final outcome would definitely be the opposite.

Is it a very difficult thing for the Qin people to take down the Zhao clan without hesitation, then formally annex the Western Zhao clan, or find another puppet to come out?

Lu Chao had no respect for his father. Perhaps in his eyes, his father and son were just a dog in front of him.

He could only blame his father afterwards and do the things first. Zhao Xilie finally made the final decision in his heart.

The Spurs knocked on the horse's belly, and Zhao Xilie caught up with his father and said, "Father, this time the exercise. I want to pull the city guards out to practice. They were originally the most efficient and capable part of our army, but if they didn't practice for a long time, they would probably be wasted. This is the capital for us father and son to survive."

Zhao Qi said tiredly: "You should take the initiative in the exercise. If you want to do it, you have to do it well. If you want to pull the city guards out, you can pull it out. But are all the guards in the city left to the Qin people?"

"Of course not. I'll transfer some people in. There are many people in the left and right army that can't go to the battlefield at all. They usually just wait for death in the army and make up for the number of people. It's better to transfer them in. Anyway, on the other side of the Qin people, we send the most elite army and the least lacking army, which are the same in their eyes." Zhao Xilie said with a self-deprecating voice: "In their eyes, we are all waste."

"You decide for yourself." Zhao Qi waved his hand. At this time, his mind was almost entirely thinking about where to get the astronomical materials to satisfy Lu Chao's greed. Previously, in Lu Chao's central army tent, the other party's threatening meaning was already very strong.

In Majiadian, Zhao Xilie's camp, more than ten senior generals of Xi Zhao sat around a pile of fire. There was no smoke-free firewood. All these good things were to be sent to the Qin people. The dignified general could only get some firewood to burn. Even though the personal soldiers tried their best to get some dry firewood, they were still burning in the tent, and there was still smoke in the confined space. However, no one in the tent was concerned about these things at this time. On the one hand, it was used to it, and on the other hand, because of the importance of this meeting, to the left or to the right, would determine their future and lives.

"Dear brothers, you have been with me for a long time. I am the one I trust the most. I have brought you here today. In fact, I have given you my life and life to you. I have decided not to fight with the Qin people, not to be a cow or a horse for them, and let them drive them. I want to fight for the future of our whole family, bet once, win, and everyone has a bright future. If you lose, I, Zhao Xilie, must have the word "death", and Zhao's family is also the word "death", of course, if you follow us, I will follow us.

My work is also a word of death. Today, I brought everyone here just to ask if you are willing to follow me, and if you don’t want to do anything with me, I won’t force you, and I won’t do anything to you, but I will lock you up until the end of this matter. When we win, I will let you go safely. Of course, by that time, we will naturally not be brothers. If we lose, you will be the heroes in front of the Qin people, and naturally we will be broken with us." Zhao Xilie said loudly.

"Don't do it, of course." A bearded general with a fierce face suddenly jumped up, his fists clattering, "Look at what life we ​​are living now, I'll tell you, just a few days ago, I went back to Jinyang City and went to the restaurant. I originally wanted to have a good drink, but my mother, I was bullied by a tooth general in Qin. I ran back and naturally didn't want others to know, so I booked a private room, but at the end, I was occupied by a tooth general in Qin. Everyone, I am a dignified general, and my subordinates also led a team of tens of thousands of people and were driven out by a small tooth general in Qin. What does it mean to be shameless? Why is it so arrogant? If I hadn't thought of not causing trouble for the general, I would have chopped him at that time."

Listening to the complaints of the bearded general, Zhao Xilie said with a sinister face: "What are you? This time I went to visit Lu Chao with my father, and the goddamn person forced my father to perform a tea ceremony for him. At that time, my lungs were almost irritated."

"Do it, how can we live this life? We are struggling to live, even the generals live with a belly. The Qin soldiers live more comfortably than us. In Jinyang City, as long as there is a dispute between the two sides, we will suffer the most. In this year, my city guards have twenty-seven brothers executed because of this, and the brothers can no longer bear it." Zhao Che, the commander of the Jinyang City Guard, who arrived here, was also full of anger. "Every time Lord Zhao wants me to endure it and take into account the overall situation. When will this be the first? If this continues, the city guards will not recognize me as the commander, and say that I am useless and a coward. Don't you know that I am more painful than them."

The resentment in the tent became stronger and stronger after the speeches of several people. Zhao Xilie stood up and glanced at everyone, "Everyone, Zhao said the words ahead. At this time, someone withdraws. Although he is no longer a brother, I will never take your life. But after this time, if anyone betrays him again, don't blame me for being ruthless."

No one in the tent said anything.

"Okay, then you'll pass." Zhao Xilie waved his arms and said loudly.

"General, I have a few words to say, I wonder if it's okay?" A veteran stood up and said.

"General Wang Gui, you are an old man. When I first entered the army, I was an officer under your command. If you have any questions, just say it." Zhao Xilie smiled.

"If we rebel against the Qin people, we must do it, and there is nothing wrong with it, but I want to ask the general, what should we do after rebel against the Qin people? Now that we are enemies with the Han people, the east has been annexed by the Han people. If we fight with the Qin people again, we will be attacked on both sides. With our strength, we are afraid that we will be defeated in a few days. Does the general have any proper arrangements in this regard?"

"General Wang asked this well. Now I want to introduce someone to everyone. When I see him, everyone's worries will naturally be relieved." Zhao Xilie smiled.

As Zhao Xilie's words came to the ground, the curtain of the central army tent was lifted open, and a young figure walked out from the inside, smiled and clasped his fists, bowing to everyone, "Dear generals, Cao Tianci is polite."

A scream sounded in Cao Tianci's tent. The former director of the Supervision Office of the Han Dynasty and the current Minister of the Police Department, Gao Yuan's hardcore confidant, actually appeared here with Cao Tianci. No wonder General Zhao was so confident that he had already contacted the Han people.

"Welcome to join the Han Dynasty. Here, on behalf of the King, I will express my opinion to you first. After joining the Han Dynasty, your position will not change. Of course, if you are unwilling to lead the army, you can also choose your place to go voluntarily. In short, if you are willing to stay, you will still take your soldiers. If you are unwilling to stay, you can go to the vast territory of the Han Dynasty wherever you want to go." To be continued.
