Looking at Qin Feng in front of him, Deng Pu quickly calculated the gains and losses of this matter in his mind, the death battalion with Qin Feng and the death battalion without Qin Feng are two completely different troops, although the former is brave, but it is just the courage of a horseman, the biggest possibility is to become a rogue, but the latter is very likely to become a headache again under the cohesion of this person.

Is the death battalion friend or foe now? Deng Pu couldn't judge for a while. Although the death camp in the past was once the mortal enemy of the border army of the Qin State, people like Deng Pu will naturally focus on the interests of the farther away when considering the problem, and the hatred of the past is difficult to forget, but more importantly, in the future, if the interests coincide, then it is natural for the enemy to become a friend.

Because this is not a personal hatred, but a national hatred, a contest of national interests. There are no permanent enemies, only eternal interests. Without Qin Feng's death camp, Deng Pu wouldn't have taken it to heart, but now that Qin Feng is not only alive, but it seems that his temperament has changed greatly, it is another matter.

When he first saw Qin Feng in the Luoying Mountains, he was still a stubborn and slightly young and hot-blooded young man, but now, what appeared in front of him was obviously a calm general who had gone through vicissitudes. Although he is still very weak, it does not prevent Deng Pu from putting him on an equal footing to discuss this matter.

"Before we discuss this matter, I want to confirm one thing, is it that from now on, you and Great Chu will become enemies, and because of this, you will regard our Great Qin as a friendly army?" Deng Pu asked.

Qin Feng smiled, "General Deng, don't you think it's too early to say this?" The current death battalion has no more than a thousand people, and it is not as good as some bandits, and we are not qualified to talk about who to be friends with and who to be enemies with. The judgment of friend or foe is based on strength, and without strength, everything is not to be discussed. Just like you, the general, deep down, do you really regard the death battalion as an opponent or an equal ally now? ”

Deng Pu thought for a while, "I used to disdain it, but now that you are back, the status of the death camp in my mind will naturally be greatly improved." If you will target Da Chu and take revenge in the future, then we have a basis for negotiation. "Yes, from the moment I came back from the dead, Da Chu became one of my targets, because my enemy is their emperor." Qin Feng said calmly, "But now for me, this is a high-level goal, I have to eat one bite at a time, and the road has to be walked step by step, and now my goal is to first break the knives that killed my daring camp robe." ”

"Are you going to stay in the Rocking Mountains?" Deng Pu asked another crucial question.

"No!" Qin Feng categorically vetoed it. "Although the Luoying Mountains look big, there is no room for us to live. Because there are already you here, out of the mountains, there are Chu, into the mountains and Qin, stay in the Luoying Mountains, we can only be a team of bandits forever. Therefore, after I have done this, I will leave quickly, and General Deng can rest assured that we will not pose any threat to you. ”

Deng Pu nodded: "I understand your choice, but why don't you consider another possibility?" Let's say, join us in Daqin. ”

Deng Pu stood up and looked at Qin Feng: "Don't be busy refusing first, you can listen to my conditions first, if you join my Great Qin Border Army, I will give you the command of a force of 20,000 people." Qin Feng, this is a very high starting point, at your age, there are not many people who can hold such power, looking at the world. You want revenge, and our Great Qin needs to be stronger, on a certain level, the state of Chu is our common enemy, and cooperation is beneficial to both sides, and there is no loss for us, but for you, you will lose a shortcut to mountaineering. ”

Qin Feng smiled and bowed to Deng Pu: "Thank you General Deng for your kindness, and thank you General Deng for the importance he attaches to Qin, but my answer is, I'm sorry!" ”

Deng Pu shrugged his shoulders and sat down again, his face did not have too much disappointment, it seemed that he had expected this answer a long time ago, but he wanted to hear it from Qin Feng's mouth.

"Can I know why?"

"Over the years, I've been a pawn, fighting desperately and trying to earn a chance to live. If you join the Qin State, you will indeed have a high starting point, but isn't it also a pawn? It's just that it was the Chu State in the past, and the Qin State in the future, and I don't want to live like this anymore. In the days to come, I want to be the master of my own life. Qin Feng said: "Is General Deng still satisfied with this reason?" ”

"Satisfied, not satisfied." Deng Pu shook his head, "In this world, except for a few people, who is not a pawn?" Just like me, in a high position and holding heavy soldiers, I am naturally complacent in the eyes of outsiders, but I am not a pawn, I am the pawn of Emperor Daqin, and I am the pawn of our Deng clan. Qin Feng, it is good to have ambitions, but if ambitions deviate from reality, they will become utopians, fantasies, and eventually hurt one's own body. ”

"If you don't give it a try, how do you know if it will work." Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Well, you're still young and can afford to fail, unlike us, you've lost that spirit. Everyone has their own ambitions, and there is no need to force them. Since you don't want to join us, then I want to ask, what good will it be for me to help you? I won't do anything that doesn't make a profit. Maybe you don't know that Anyang County has sent out 100,000 taels of silver, and wants us to exterminate the remaining people in your death camp, and the official document is still on my big case. ”

Hearing this, Qin Feng was noncommittal: "General Deng is an extremely smart person, how could he be stupid enough to accept such a proposal, I estimate that the person who proposed this plan probably doesn't know much about the Luoying Mountain Range." Even if you have an army of 100,000 people, in the vast mountains, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find a team of a few hundred people. Of course, you may just want to cheat the 100,000 taels of silver. ”

Deng Pu laughed, "Tell me about your conditions, otherwise I will make a show, and then claim to have killed all the death camps, and those Chu people can't find any traces of the death camps, and the 100,000 taels of silver will still fall into my empty bag." ”

"Killing scissors is revenge for me, and for you, it is to eradicate future troubles and cut off An Ruhai's wings." Qin Feng said: "If Rong Scissors keeps alive, it will be a big trouble for you in the future." ”

"You value scissors so much?" Deng Pu was a little surprised. "I don't see any special talent in him above the military, it's just a step-by-step and a little aura."

"Among the current generals in the death camp, I value scissors the most. Because he is studious. Qin Feng pondered for a moment and said, "I think I can get the attention of General Deng, it's not that I can dare to fight, there are many such generals under your command." ”

"Yes, what I value is your ability to train troops and integrate them."

"Not to mention scissors, in terms of training troops and integrating the combat capabilities of troops, I have already obtained my true inheritance." Qin Feng looked at Deng Pu, "Actually, in the past two years, I have not been very involved in the training of recruits entering the camp, but it is all done by scissors. Now he is an Anyang county soldier, no matter what the purpose, I believe that scissors will make the Anyang county soldier completely change from now on. Once this talent of his is discovered by An Ruhai, can you think of the consequences? ”

Qin Feng smiled: "Or the troops he trained are not as good as the death battalion, but as long as they have half the combat strength of the death battalion, it is enough for you to have a headache, right?" ”

Listening to Qin Feng's presence, Deng Pu involuntarily reached out and picked out one from the case file on the table, which was the content of scissor training sent back by his spies in Anyang County.

"That's a good reason. An Ruhai is a formidable opponent, with higher seniority and experience than me, if he can build a force that is not inferior to the previous Chu State border army with the help of scissors, it is indeed a headache. However, this is not something that can be done in a short period of time, and now that Min Ruoying has come to power, the strategic focus of the Chu people will definitely turn to the east, and even if An Ruhai is threatened, I think I can handle it. Nothing else? ”

"I personally owe General Deng a favor, and I will return it to you when you need it in the future." Qin Feng said lightly.

"You owe me a favor personally?" Deng Pu smiled and said, "Qin Feng, this is a big deal. At least for now, your favor isn't worth much! ”

"You have also seen it, now I have a ninth-level martial arts cultivation, and I have just turned twenty-two years old this year, it won't take many years, I will definitely step into the ranks of grandmasters, General Deng, it is not easy to make a martial arts grandmaster owe you a favor, after this village, there will be no such shop."

The smile on Deng Pu's face slowly disappeared, which reminded him of his hidden pain, and he nodded slowly, "You're right." It is indeed a joy to have a future Grandmaster owe me a favor, if you can live until that time. ”

Listening to the conversation between the two, Shu Chang, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "General Deng, let me add another condition." ”

"Dr. Shu also has conditions?" Deng Pu turned his head to look at Shu Chang with interest.

"General Deng has suffered a lot of injuries, and now it seems that these injuries are still hidden dangers, right?" Shu Chang looked at Deng Pu with a smile.

Deng Pu's temples suddenly throbbed a few times, "How do you know?" ”

"You know I'm a doctor, and that's just the most basic thing. Thinking about it, these hidden dangers have affected General Deng, your future martial arts path, but I heard that Bian Wushuang has already stood on the threshold of the grandmaster, and Deng, now the highest martial arts cultivation is you. If I can eliminate these hidden dangers in your body, what do you think of this condition? ”

Like a shock, Deng Pu suddenly became excited: "Do you have a way?" In Yongdu, a famous doctor has already made an assertion to me. ”

"Please don't compare me with those quacks, Guo Jiuling, you know, when you Qin people sent him to me, he was already almost like a dead man, but now he is alive and kicking, and half of his martial arts cultivation has been saved. Compared to him, your injury is only a little troublesome thing for me. "Shu Chang said proudly. (To be continued.) )
