After crossing over, he has no taboos among the zombies.

"Master, where have you been?"

At the crematorium, Big Turtle was used to working at night and sleeping during the day. Even after burning three corpses, he didn't feel sleepy and kept waiting for Qin He to come back.

Qin He lay on his bed, fished out his magical little notebook from his bosom, ticked the line next to Wang Laoqi's wish for a child in the tailor shop, and then said slowly, "I've gotten involved in a big, busy matter."

"Idle business?"

The big turtle tilted its head, confused.

"It's not a big deal." Qin He said again.

The big turtle became even more confused after hearing this and said, "My godfather once warned me not to meddle in other people's business. It won't do any good if I meddle too much."

"Your godfather taught you this?" Qin He glanced at him.

"My godfather has lived for more than four hundred years and has a lot of experience." The big turtle said with a smug look on his face.

"Yeah, you have quite a lot of experience." Qin He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, paused and asked, "What else did your godfather say?"

"Godfather said that all living beings in this world have their own destiny. Meddling in other people's affairs is interfering with the will of heaven and will be affected by cause and effect." The big turtle did not notice anything unusual about Qin He and said casually.

Qin He frowned slightly, "Cause and effect?"

"That's what godfather said." The big turtle nodded.

"Do you understand cause and effect?" Qin He asked.

The big turtle shook his head and said several words without any further information.

Qin He shook his head. His path of cultivation was ultimately shallow.

But he didn't worry about it. As the saying goes, when the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. It will be solved.

……

At this moment, outside Baoanzhou City, the Beijing Army Camp.

The eunuch Gao Qiqian, the military supervisor, hosted a grand banquet for the troops.

The emperor issued an edict, and the military inspector Gao Qiqian led his troops to rescue Bao'an Prefecture. He was rewarded for his meritorious service by beheading more than 500 Di captives. He was promoted to the title of Prince's Guardian, and all the generals under his command were rewarded.

This was naturally a celebration banquet. More than a hundred generals from the Beijing camp gathered together for the banquet, and the scene was very lively.

"Eunuch, you are a master of strategy and can win a victory thousands of miles away!"

"Congratulations, eunuch, the Holy Heart has blessed you!"

"..."

All the generals were drunk and raised their glasses frequently.

Gao Qiqian's face was also flushed. He accepted everyone who came and was almost unable to sit still.

But there was one person present who sat up straight and looked at the crooked banquet with a worried look on his face.

This person is Cao Wenming, the nephew of Cao Wenzhao.

Cao Wenming was one of the few civil servants in the Cao family's generals. He was sent by Cao Wenzhao to the Beijing camp for communication.

Since the Ming Dynasty built a large northern defense line, its army has been roughly divided into two parts.

The first group was the Border Army, stationed in the nine border areas and directly reaching the front lines of the war against the Dilu and Rong tribes. Most of the troops were led by generals from Liaodong. The second group was the Capital Camp, which belonged to the emperor's personal troops and was stationed in the capital. Most of the troops were led by eunuchs who supervised the army.

The two pieces are clearly separated from each other, and they are wary of and competing with each other.

Cao Wenzhao won a great victory over the Di Lu. Gao Qiqian, who had been hiding behind and watching the fire, immediately rushed to the front line of Bao'an Prefecture at a speed of 800 miles a day. To put it bluntly, he wanted to steal the credit.

Unfortunately, he arrived a little too late and shamelessly reported five hundred beheadings.

If he had come earlier, he would have dared to behead ten thousand people.

Even so, Gao Qiqian still took half of the credit for stabilizing the thin-line defense.

Because providing assistance is also a merit, the Emperor of Dali was wary of the border troops who had never been very obedient.

But at this moment, Cao Wenming did not care whether it was reasonable for the Beijing Camp to share half of the credit. What he cared more about was that the 80,000 troops of the Beijing Camp were now in an extremely dangerous situation.

Coming from a military family of the Cao family, even though he was a civil servant, Cao Wenming was familiar with the styles and temperaments of the generals of the various Di Lu tribes.

Although Brother Aqi was seriously injured, did he really have no power to fight back?

The Dilu spies are spread all over Dali, and Aqige definitely knows that the Beijing troops have arrived at the front line.

Brother Aqi is known for his bravery in battle and his swift actions. If he were to face his opponent face to face, there would probably be no one in the world who could rival him.

Xuanfu is only a hundred miles away from here, and cavalry can arrive there in half a day.

More importantly, Aqige's infantry suffered heavy casualties, but his cavalry retained considerable strength.

Before pursuing the defeated Di Lu army, his uncle Cao Wenzhao repeatedly instructed Cao Wenming to remind Gao Qiqian that Aqi Ge still had the strength to fight back, and that he must set up a tight camp to prevent the Di Lu from counterattacking.

However, Gao Qiqian had already arrived at the city of Bao'an for three days, and the camp he had set up was almost useless and a complete deception.

Tonight the whole army is drunk.

What if the Di Lu sent out a surprise attack at this time?

Given the Di Lu's combat effectiveness, they don't need too many, a few thousand people will be enough.

The uncle on the front line only had 3,000 cavalry left, and it was impossible for him to completely keep the Di Lu at bay.

Is that the result?

Thinking of this, Cao Wenming shuddered and hurriedly bowed to Gao Qiqian, saying, "Eunuch, I think the banquet is almost over. It would be better for all the generals to return to their camps to prevent a surprise attack from the Di Lu."

"How is it possible that the Di Lu launched a surprise attack? Hahaha~" Gao Qiquan was stunned and laughed.

"Hahaha, that's it."

"Nearly half of the Dilu were killed or wounded, and they have no food or supplies. What can we use to launch a surprise attack?"

"They are eating people in Xuanzhou City and they still don't have enough to share. It's a joke."

When the generals heard this, they also burst into laughter.

One general slammed the table and said, "If we don't attack Xuanfu, even if Brother Aqi is really lucky, he still dares to come to Bao'an Prefecture. He's courting death!"

"That's right. We have four battalions of the Beijing Army, 50,000 infantry, and 30,000 cavalry. A spit from each of us is enough to drown Brother Aqi." A general echoed.

When Cao Wenming heard this, his face turned red and white, and he felt like flipping the table.

Gao Qiqian smiled and said, "My dear nephew, you are a civil servant and may not understand military affairs very well. As the saying goes, before troops move, food and fodder must be sent ahead. Brother Aqi was not well prepared for this entry into the pass. He suffered a crushing defeat a few days ago, and most of his food and fodder was burned. His future is already precarious. My dear nephew, just drink your wine and don't go home until you are drunk today!"

"But father-in-law, we should be prepared for the worst." Cao Wenming insisted.

"Nephew Cao, don't worry. Your Excellency knows about military affairs. Just be at ease. Come, have a drink!" Another general came directly to Cao Wenming with a glass of wine.

Cao Wenming had no choice but to pick up the cup and deal with him first.

For some reason, he always felt that the atmosphere was not right tonight and something was going to happen.

This person sometimes has amazingly accurate feelings, without needing too many reasons.

"Rumble..."

What you fear will come true. At this moment, there was a muffled vibration from the ground under your feet. It was very slight at first, almost imperceptible, but it soon became clear.

Then a scout with a panicked face rushed in, shouting, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Brother Aqi is personally leading 5,000 cavalry to attack! They are only three miles away from the camp!"

Some shrill voices instantly silenced the banquet, and the originally subtle muffled vibrations suddenly became extremely clear.

Gao Qiqian was stunned, and the next moment he screamed: "Quick, defend! Defend! Defend!"

"Go back to camp and wake everyone up!"

"Hurry! Hurry!"

The generals sobered up immediately and rushed to their respective camps.

The scene suddenly became a mess, with countless tables overturned and a huge noise everywhere.
