Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 78
Only then did Si Go realize that Xiang Yu was showing his loyalty.Smiling secretly in his heart, he began to reduce the degree of surveillance on Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu asked Shu Qing, "Where are you going next?"

Looking at these eight people, there was nothing but the clothes and weapons on their bodies and the horses under their crotches.Xiang Yu was very afraid that these people would starve to death on this grassland, and even though Xiang Yu didn't use his eyes of insight, he still felt an unusual smell from Shu Qing.

"I don't know if I can follow the general. After arriving in Jiuyuan, I need to use the power of the general to get some money and report for me to go home!" Shu Qing said his request without the slightest embarrassment.

After listening, Xiang Yu thought for a while.Then he replied: "Yes! But you must obey orders, and you are not allowed to act at will!"

Seeing that Shu Qing didn't answer, Xiang Yu seemed to have thought of something and said again: "Of course! After arriving in Jiuyuan, I will lend you some money and you can decide whether to stay or not later!"

"Shu Qing is here, thank you sir!" Shu Qing said immediately after Xiang Yu finished speaking.

Nodding his head, Xiang Yu didn't say anything more.

Tang Mi took Shu Qing and retreated, and Si Fu arranged for eight people to follow who they were, and to share some food by the way!
After receiving the food, Shu Qing and the others began to gobble it up.

After eating and drinking, Mo De asked his current boss, Wang Zishu Qing, in a puzzled manner: "Master! Why did we go south with this Qin army? Can't we go south by ourselves?" Of course, Mo De also He didn't dare to blatantly call Shu Qing the prince, but changed it to the young master.

Shu Qing laughed and said nothing, but Nan Li didn't know what Shu Qing was thinking, so she said, "Mode! Besides this clothes, the weapons in our hands, and the horses under our crotch, do we have other things? ?”

"No!" Maud replied.

"It's because we don't have any, that's why we follow this Qin army! In this way, we won't have to worry about food before we reach Jiuyuan, or even after we reach Jiuyuan!" Nan Li nodded, looking like a teachable child. Watch Maud thank him for his support.

As a person who is proficient in the languages ​​of several ethnic groups, Moder knew about Shu Qing's plan when Nan Li had just asked herself and the others and had nothing else.However, in order to let others know, and not daring to disobey Princess Nanli, she had no choice but to respond and let Nanli continue talking.

As soon as Nan Li said it, the people around me who had been wondering why their prince behaved like this showed that I already understood.Then, they all gave a thumbs up and praised: "Miss is really amazing! She has already seen the young master's plan!"

Why did everyone praise Nan Li but not Shu Qing?

Because Nan Li's "Tiger Might" has long been buried in the hearts of the entire Da Yue Clan, no one from the Da Yue Clan dared to make Nan Li lose face.

Nan Li was very grateful for this, while Shu Qing smiled wryly and shook his head.

The conversation between Shu Qing and others did not mean to avoid Qin Jun at all.

After hearing this, a sergeant went to report to Xiang Yu.Xiang Yu heard this, and said with a smile: "Master Si Gou and I have guessed it a long time ago! It's okay, just tell the logistics brothers to give them food on time!"

The sergeant didn't bother himself, so he went down and told the sergeant in charge of logistics to provide Shu Qing and others with food on time.

******************************
In the endless prairie, there is nothing but the grass all over the ground!Of course, there is a small forest in front that can be used as a temporary habitat for birds and business travelers!

There is no better habitat than the woods to trade on the grasslands.Because the forest has enough secrecy, and except for those crazy people who want to destroy the caravan!Others are looking for money, and generally they will not burn down the forest to burn up their vested interests.

It is now evening, and the sun is setting.The setting sun shines on the grass, making the scenery very beautiful.

Moulton and his party were not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery. They all took out their water bags and drank water.

Looking at the woods in front of you to rest, and looking at the sun that is about to set.Morton knew that there would be no caravan passing by today, so he took a sip of water and said to Du Dun who was beside him, "Tonight, I will repair in the woods ahead, and then I will slaughter my war horse so that the brothers can have a good meal." Meal!"

"Yes!" Du Dun accepted the order very happily when he heard that he could kill horses to satisfy his hunger.

However, when Du Dun reacted, he immediately stopped him and said, "My lord! You can't! Your war horse has gone through life and death with you many times, and has a very deep relationship with you! How can you kill it? If you want to kill a horse to satisfy your hunger, kill me." the war horse!"

In fact, Du Dun didn't say one thing, that is, the war horse that Moulton was riding was personally selected and tamed by Shu Nanting, the king of the Yue clan before Moulton went on an envoy to the Western Regions!
"I've made up my mind! No need to say more!" Moulton said for the first time with the majesty of a superior after fleeing.

Afterwards, Moulton rode his horse towards the woods indecisively.

Du Dun called over a few sergeants and asked them to go in different directions to investigate the situation of several miles around.

After giving the order, he rode his horse to the woods to chase after Moulton.

In the woods, Du Dun let the sergeant start to light the fire, while Moulton finally touched the horse that had followed him for many years.Wiping away the tears she unconsciously left behind, she prepared to slaughter him with her own hands to feed the soldiers and herself.

The war horse also felt the grief of its master, and shed a few tears.This made the sergeants and Du Dun who were lighting a fire and preparing to cut up the corpse of the horse for barbecue were infected, and they were a little afraid to do it.

Just as Moulton was about to do something, a sergeant sent to scout the surroundings returned.

He said immediately, "My lord! There is a caravan heading here three miles behind, and it seems that they want to rest here tonight!"

After Du Dun heard this, he immediately went to pull the sergeant off his horse, grabbed his shoulders and shook him excitedly and asked, "Is it true what you took?"

"Commander! It's absolutely true, I did see a caravan with at least 500 people!" The sergeant immediately said with certainty.

"There is no unparalleled road! There is no unparalleled road!" Moulton shouted happily as he stroked his horse.

yes!There is always a way out!Originally planned to contribute his own war horses to feed the sergeants so that they would not be in chaos for the time being.Unexpectedly, just as he was about to slaughter the horses, he encountered a caravan.Moulton felt that he was really lucky today, and he hoped that he could borrow enough food from this caravan to make his way.

After a while, a caravan dressed up by people from the Central Plains appeared in front of Moulton and others.
