Chapter 2203

Su Chen's intention was seen through by Tuoba Zhengyu, Su Chen didn't know what to say for a while, so he fell silent.

Tuoba Zhengyu looked at Su Chen's expression with a smirk and said, "I didn't mean to question you, don't think too much! In fact, I don't want to put Xiao Wen far to death. He is very talented in strategy and architecture. If To be able to take him under his command will surely make my Northern Wei even more powerful."

Su Chen slowly raised his eyes and said, "Lord Tuoba really deserves to be a generation of Mingjun. He can let go of the previous grievances and take the initiative to shake hands with the opponent. I admire this kind-hearted little brother!"

Tuoba Zhengyu shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't compliment me here, little brother! Is it true that you just said that you gave me the acupuncture rope and let me control Xiao Wenyuan? That acupuncture rope looks very powerful! "

Su Chen said solemnly, "Lord Tuoba, trust me! When I arrive at the Northern Wei army camp, I will give you the acupuncture rope. But..."

Su Chen paused for a long time. Tuoba Zhengyu was anxious this time, and he asked eagerly, "Are you going back on your word? A gentleman's words are hard to follow. You can't just keep your word!"

Su Chen acted as if nothing had happened on his face, but he was laughing wildly in his heart. Who told Lord Tuoba to scare him just now?

Su Chen saw that Tuoba Zhengyu's expression had changed from the panic just now to black face all the time, Su Chen immediately looked at Tuoba Zhengyu flatteringly and said, "Master Tuoba, in fact, it's nothing serious. It's just my acupuncture point." The rope recognizes its master, you have to let it submit to you, otherwise it will not be controlled by you!"

Tuoba Zhengyu's complexion suddenly improved, and he asked patiently, "Little brother, how can you control the acupuncture rope?" Su Chen looked at Tuoba Zhengyu and shook his head seriously. Tuoba Zhengyu's face turned dark again.

Su Chen looked at Tuoba Zhengyu and said, "I will help you conquer the acupuncture rope, don't worry, Lord Tuoba!" Tuoba Zhengyu nodded thoughtfully.

After resting for half an hour, Tuoba Zhengyu ordered, "We have to hurry up and go. There is an oasis three kilometers away from here. The terrain is relatively flat. We can replenish some fresh water there and rest all night. .”

Under the leadership of Tuoba Zhengyu, the soldiers rushed forward non-stop, trying to reach the oasis that Tuoba Zhengyu mentioned before the sun went down.

Since they had just replenished their energy, the soldiers were full of energy and moved forward tirelessly. It took the soldiers an hour to arrive at the oasis after a two-hour journey. All my soldiers stood and cheered when they saw the oasis.

The soldiers took their own kettles and went to fill a pot of water. Su Chen took his own and Xiao Wenyuan's kettles and went to fill a pot of water.

Tuoba Zhengyu gave an order, "Soldiers, we will set up camp here tonight. The sentries will patrol outside the tents in shifts, and the logisticians will quickly set up the tents." The soldiers followed Tuoba Zhengyu's orders one after another.

This group of well-trained soldiers was like a magic trick. In less than a quarter of an hour, countless tents were set up on the flat ground of the oasis. The soldiers also set up a bonfire in front of the tent, and the dark night was instantly brightened by the light of the bonfire.

Su Chen looked at Tuoba Zhengyu with admiration and doubt, Tuoba Zhengyu glanced at him and said, "Are you very puzzled by this well-trained army?" Su Chen stared at Tuoba Zhengyu in a strange way and nodded .

Tuoba Zhengyu led Su Chen to the campfire, and said slowly, "Actually, I have been training the army silently before you gave me any advice on training the army."

Tuoba Zhengyu said with some embarrassment, "It's just that my army is a little inferior to the Qi army, so I didn't make a big publicity! After the surrender of the Qi army, the combat effectiveness of my Northern Wei army instantly improved." Su Chen suddenly I felt like I was playing big swords in front of Tuoba Zhengyu and in front of Guan Gong.

Tuoba Zhengyu saw through Su Chen's thoughts and said, "Don't think too much! I have been the monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty for so many years, and no one dared to chat with me honestly. You are the first person. You are also I was the first to suggest training armies and riding horses! Therefore, I have always considered you my confidant."

Su Chen glanced at Tuoba Zhengyu and said seriously, "Lord Tuoba, it is a great honor in my life to know such a civilized and military monarch like you and to be regarded as a confidant by you."

Su Chen and Tuoba Zhengyu sat by the bonfire and chatted about many things. They found that they were really speculative, and they both chatted till midnight. The general walked to Tuoba Zhengyu's side hesitantly and said quietly, "Master Xuanyuan, it's time for Zishi now, pay attention to your own body!"

The chat between Tuoba Zhengyu and Su Chen came to an abrupt end, they raised their heads to look at the sky at the same time, and when it was indeed Zi, he looked at each other and smiled again. Su Chen got up slowly and said, "Lord Tuoba, rest early! My little brother will leave first!" Su Chen walked briskly towards his tent, quickly lifted the tent and walked in.

The general said indignantly on behalf of Tuoba Zhengyu, "This little brother is so lawless and unscrupulous because you spoil him because of the monarch! Even if you rest, you should rest first; he will wait for you to leave before resting. But he"

Tuoba Zhengyu looked at the general with a smile and said, "Little brother is not my subordinate after all, he and I are equal. It doesn't matter if he does this! General, you are tired too. Go to rest early! I want to be alone. meeting!"

The general walked resignedly back to his tent. Tuoba Zhengyu stayed quietly by the campfire for a quarter of an hour, and then walked towards his tent with big strides.

Su Chen opened his eyes just as the sky was getting dark. Out of boredom, Su Chen came out of the tent and took a walk around the oasis. Su Chen saw a light not far away, and walked to the light with curious steps.

Tuoba Zhengyu saw a figure pacing back and forth outside the tent, so he said in the tent, "Who is outside!"

Su Chen said timidly, "Lord Tuoba, it's me!"

Hearing Su Chen's voice, Tuoba Zhengyu couldn't help but soften his tone, "Since you're already outside the tent, come in! The temperature in the desert is very low at night, don't catch a cold!"

Su Chen was indeed a little bit cold outside. After hearing Tuoba Zhengyu's invitation, Su Chen entered Tuoba Zhengyu's tent without hesitation.

Tuoba Zhengyu looked at Su Chen who walked into the tent, put down his work pen, and asked warmly, "Little brother, why did you wake up so early! Are you sick again? You don't come to the desert often, what's wrong?" If you are comfortable, tell me in time! Don’t hold back in your heart, just treat me as your big brother or confidant!"
