In Qiying, black clouds were shrouded in the north wind, snow falling down with the geese feathers.

As a large number of Turkic young men came over under the "inspiration" of the khan, the Qi army camp today seemed very lively, and even the biting cold wind could not dispel the enthusiasm of the Turks to join the army.

After they saw the mutton soup cooked on the stove in front of the camp, and received the weapons and armor distributed by the Qi army, this enthusiasm became stronger and stronger.

Until dusk, there were some herders riding horses, some came alone, and some father and son joined the army. Some herders rubbed their hands as soon as they got off the horse and asked the soldiers who were receiving at the door: "I heard from Na Yan of our tribe the day before yesterday that the generals of Qi were short of manpower in wars. As long as they came, they would take care of food and accommodation, and they also sent clothes, salt and big iron pots. Is that true?"

The soldiers responsible for receiving them were from six towns of military households, with Khitan, Xianbei and Turkic languages ​​very good. I don’t know how many times they were asked about this kind of question today. He was busy copying the roster and impatiently pointed to the notice board behind him:

"It's all written on it, read it yourself."

The herdsman's dark face turned purple, and he looked embarrassed: "I can't read..."

The soldier was a little annoyed and was about to scold him a few words. When he looked up, he saw the general and Mr. Pei standing not far ahead. He remembered what Mr. Pei told him two days ago that he wanted to give the herders who came to join the army "the same care as home and the same warmth of spring". So he changed his face at the same speed of light, and was as kind as the spring breeze and drizzle: "Sorry, I was too busy just now, what did you ask just now?"

"I just want to know if the clothes, iron pot and salt are real."

"Of course it's true! Who doesn't know that our Daqi joins the army well! Let me tell you... not only do we deliver iron pots and clothes, but we also give you a few large bags of food and wine!"

"What, is it good to drink? Have you ever drunk the fine wine from the Central Plains? Have you never drunk it? Let me tell you, it is much better than the horse milk wine you drink, and I say it's okay after drinking it! We have also prepared armor and weapons for you, you don't have to bring it yourself, you cut off two heads, and you even bring the weapons and armor home. You don't have to hand over any seizures on the battlefield, all of them are yours!"

The soldiers fooled the crowd of herders and spitted everywhere. The herders below were dizzy by his spit. These simple and overly simple Turkic herders had seen such a scene?

You don’t need to bring your own armor and weapons. You will have food and clothing when you come. The income you seize on the battlefield is your own...

If you have a poor psychological endurance, you can compare the general of Qi army with your own chief and you will be moved to tears on the spot, wishing you could immediately sacrifice your life for Da Qi.

The sergeant rang the railway while it was hot: "Have you still had adult men like you in your family yet?"

Some younger ones probably didn’t understand the sinister routines of the people in the Central Plains. They honestly explained at that time: “I have four younger brothers, and I will soon become an adult. They want to come, but my dad doesn’t let them come… He said you were lying to us.”

"Oh, I'm confused! I'm short-sighted! On this snowy day, do you have something to eat when you sit at home? Come to our place, after the war, change to a few large iron pots and grains to go back to make porridge. Isn't it delicious?"

“…”

"We will lie, everyone, look, am I like this? I, Zhang Dabiao, have always been a lie in business, and have always been a man of justice. What I have always paid attention to is to conquer people with virtue. To be honest, my family lives in Wuchuan. If I lie to you, you can go to Wuchuan to find me at any time!"

“…”

Zhang Dabiao shook his head and said with a heartache: "I don't understand. Why don't anyone agree to such a good thing? We just want to benefit the Turkic people, why are they misunderstood?"

“…”

"In this way, there is still plenty of time. In order to reflect our credibility, those who are closer to our family can name us. First, find the branch office to get some remuneration and go back to see the family. Tell them that those who are coming will come quickly. After tomorrow night, we will not recruit people and we must not miss the opportunity!"

"You are stupid and don't know how to persuade you? Don't go door to door and find someone close to you!"

"Anyway, I can't grazle sheep in heavy snow, so I'm idle, so I might as well come here to earn extra money... I'll get five people to give you five stones of grain, and ten people to get you a set of leather armor for free! The rewards will double!"

"Wouldn't it be nice to tell your relatives and friends that if you develop layer by layer, you will make him successful, and he will make others and achieve each other, and achieve each other?"

This scene fell into the eyes of the generals and everyone was silent.

After a while, Chi Luoyi said with a suspicion: "So his name is Zhang Dabiao? Didn't he tell me that his surname was Li, and he was from Guanzhong?"

Speaking of this, everyone looked at Pei Shiju with a strange look.

Pei Shiju had his hands wrapped in his sleeves, looking at the sky with his eyes, looking harmless, and said: "Why do you care about so many things? He said his name was Zhang Dabiao, so he was Zhang Dabiao."

Made, scholars are indeed full of bad water...

Everyone was complaining in their hearts, and Da Xi Changru finally spoke: "It's a talent. Mr. Pei worked hard to promote the splitting of the Turks and came up with such a good idea. Not only did he make a big move, but he also had some tricks to steal, but he was also a talent among talents. No wonder His Majesty valued you so much. After this battle, Mr. Pei would not be able to escape the first achievement."

"Thank you, General!" Pei Shiju bowed calmly, but the curve of the corners of his mouth fully exposed his mood. For several months, the strings in his heart have been tense, fearing that the wrong step would lead to the failure of his hard-working plan. Now that he has received the verbal promise from Da Xi Changru, it means that everything he has done has been completed and he can happily snatch fish next.

Anyway, it’s not my turn to fight, but my scholar.

The smile in Pei Shiju's eyes became stronger and stronger:

"In fact, if it weren't for the severe drought on the grassland this summer, which led to poor harvests and many herders starved to death, this matter wouldn't have been so smooth."

"We have food, clothing, and supplies they urgently want. They will definitely choose to follow us. I estimate that within three days, we will recruit 20,000 or 30,000 people, which is not a problem!"

Da Xi Changru said nodded and swept the tiger's eyes through the messy school ground: "This is the merit that God has given me to wait for, helping me to defeat Ashina's photos in one fell swoop, and to restore peace to the northern border... These Turks must be strictly taken care of and not let their messy military discipline affect our soldiers. People from the same tribe cannot stay in the same camp to avoid changes."

"yes!"

The generals were all in awe. The reason why the grassland people fought fiercely was not only because they were raised in harsh environments, but also because they were all based on tribes and some were related to each other. They went to battle with father and son. While ensuring the exact interests, they were particularly motivated and worked extra hard when fighting.

But their biggest shortcoming is that they are free and unrestrained, resulting in disarray and only obey the orders of their own tribe leaders.

During a war, even if the Khan came in person, he ordered everyone to fight to the death. As long as the leader of their tribe called for retreat, they would still retreat without hesitation.

Before the tribal system completely collapsed, it would be impossible for the emperor of Mobei or the Central Plains to do it like an arm and finger to them.

Interrupting their establishment is to prevent them from being connected together and avoid the possibility of riots.

The war was imminent, and the Qi army was fully prepared and must not destroy the overall situation with a little negligence... Da Xi Changru took his men to the camp again. A group of Turkic people were competing for archery in the schoolyard. Among them, there was a Turkic boy wearing a worn-out leather hat. However, he was only eleven or twelve years old, but he had good archery skills. Apart from one hundred and fifty steps, only one arrow fell from the target.

Da Xi Changru looked at it with relish and suddenly asked, "Chi Luoyi, you praise yourself as little as the world. How do you think your archery skills are compared with him?"

Chi Luoyi nodded disdainfully and did not speak.

He grabbed the big bow placed on the rack, stepped onto the horse, and stood outside one hundred and fifty steps to shoot. Eight of the ten arrows hit the target, and three arrows hit the bull's eye, and proudly got off the horse in the cheers of everyone.

"What's the point of standing there shooting arrows? I can shoot galloping horses, and one of the three arrows will hit the enemy's throat!"

Da Xi Changru remained silent and took an iron-tied bow, bent his arm, buckled his arrow, aimed, and opened his bow like a full moon! The series of movements did not sluggish!

The heavy snow of goose feathers drifted over the school grounds. In the hazy light, the thin old man with a thick skeleton was silhouetted like a god of war!

He shot a series of arrows, and in a moment, ten arrows were shot, and the arrows of each arrow pierced through the bull's eye!

Even the Turkic people who claimed to be good at shooting were stunned.

Da Xi Changru pulled the arrow from the target and handed it back to Chi Luoyi. He smiled slightly and said earnestly:

"Xunzi said: One of the 100 shots is not good at shooting... I think you have been a little drifting recently. When you go to the battlefield with a game attitude, you may die without a burial place. Once the war begins, you will be the vanguard of our army. You must remember it!"

Chi Luoyi's cheeks flushed: "Don't worry, General, I understand!"

Da Xi Changru didn't say much and went back to the big tent.

In two days, the movements of the Eastern Turks became more and more frequent, and the wolf cavalry photographed by Ashina frequently raided the Qi army camp and surrounding camps, and Da Xi Changru ignored it. Two days later, the Eastern Turks army had already gathered and was coming, and they were aggressively agitating the generals outside the camp, but Da Xi Changru still ignored it. Two days later, in the middle of the night, the scout came to report that he saw the Turks camping thirty miles away, and the golden wolf flag had already been raised!

Da Xi Changru stood up and said, "The time has come. Beat the drum and gather the generals, ready to face the enemy!"

Before dawn, the night wind was howling, and the torches as dense as stars shone. The Qi army's flag and Da Xi Changru's commanding flag were waving in the open area of ​​the schoolyard. Da Xi Changru's body was covered with armor and pointed at the direction of the Golden Wolf flag:

"The whole army attacked!" At this moment, the Eastern Turks still had no time to react!
Chapter completed!
