Chapter 727: Paranoia, met with eye-rolls
"It is definitely wrong!"
"Nearly a hundred thousand captives, and they only send a few thousand soldiers to guard them."
"Do you think this makes sense?"
"If there are so few people guarding them, wouldn't those people escape on their own?"
Seeing Maoshi felt something was very wrong.
He still believed there was an ambush inside.
The other generals also felt it was a bit strange.
So many captives, yet only a few thousand guards.
This matter didn't seem normal no matter how one looked at it.
Seeing Maoshi looked at the cavalryman and asked.
"Why did only you return?"
"Where are the others?"
"Were the others all captured?"
"And were you turned by the Qin people to lure us in?"
Seeing Maoshi's complexion turned ugly.
He thought of some bad scenarios.
The generals' expressions also became strange.
They looked at the cavalryman with suspicion.
Could it really be as His Highness said?
When the soldier heard this, he was so scared he fell off his horse.
His previously excited expression turned pale.
He had returned happily to report the good news, never expecting His Highness to suspect him like this.
"Your Highness, you can doubt my competence, but you should not doubt my loyalty!"
"They didn't return because they need to keep watch on the Qin people inside!"
"And many others are busy saving people!"
"The reason the Qin people have so few guards is because our people were all tied up by them."
"Everyone was tied up, so why would they need so many guards?"
"Now our people are busy untying the ropes, but there are too many of them, so they need help!"
"That is why they sent me back to report."
The soldier shouted, feeling insulted.
He was loyal, yet he was met with suspicion.
"So that's how it is..."
The generals listened to the soldier's explanation and chose to believe him.
They had been unable to understand why there were so many captives but only a few thousand guards.
Now that they knew the reason, they felt it was normal.
Everyone was tied up, so leaving a few to keep watch was enough.
There was no need for so many guards; after all, it was late at night and they were tired.
It would be a different story if they weren't tied up.
They truly hadn't expected the Qin people to do this.
That was nearly a hundred thousand people.
To tie them all up just like that.
The workload was truly not small.
"We believe you, get up."
A general spoke, telling the soldier to get up.
When saying this, he didn't forget to glance at Seeing Maoshi.
They were generals under Touman Chanyu and were not afraid of Seeing Maoshi.
"Your Highness, why don't we go in and save them together?" ===== CHAPTER 729 =====
