In Qin, heavy snow came earlier than in previous years.
As snowflakes fall from the sky, within half a day, every leaf, twig, and even the dead grass on the roadside is slowly covered with a thin layer of white snow, which becomes thicker and thicker as time goes by.
Lantian Camp.
At this moment, every Qin army tent in the camp is also covered with snow. At a glance, there are countless white tents.
Outside the camp.
Soldiers of the Qin State held long swords and stepped on the snow, patrolling outside the Lantian camp, listening to the sound of drills inside the huge wooden fence, and leaving long footprints behind them.
At this time.
In the distance, in the ice and snow, a large number of Qin soldiers suddenly appeared, and those Qin soldiers were rushing towards here.
Upon seeing this, both the patrolling Qin soldiers and the Qin soldiers in the Lantian camp looked at the Qin army.
"They're back!"
"Really, they're back!"
A famous Qin soldier holding a long sword looked at the Qin army in the distance and whispered.
Except for some of the Qin troops who had previously attacked South Korea and stayed behind, the rest had rushed back to Qin in batches.
The Qin army in front of us is the last batch!
They originally thought that if they couldn't come back within these two days, they would have to wait until the heavy snow dissipated before they could come back. They didn't expect that their Qin army could really rush back to Lantian before the heavy snowstorm.
Inside Lantian Camp.
"It's so cold! This heavy snow is really painful."
"No!!"
In the camp, while talking, a Qin soldier walking around kept breathing into his frozen hands, trying to use the hot air in his mouth to relieve some of the pain in his hands.
"Look!"
Some Qin soldiers suddenly saw rows of Qin soldiers holding long swords outside the camp, and they were walking into the camp in a steady stream.
The other Qin soldiers looked at those Qin soldiers returning from Yingchuan County.
Even the Qin soldiers in the camp came out of the camp one after another when they heard the movement and came out to watch.
For those Qin soldiers who are still training, those returning Qin soldiers are undoubtedly enviable to them.
"It would have been great if I had gone too!"
A young Qin soldier looked at those Qin soldiers with envy in his eyes and murmured.
This sentence.
During this period of time, countless Qin soldiers had already lamented this.
I recall that when the army was gathering in Lantian, there were many young recruits who followed them. Now, after returning, these recruits have received some financial rewards, and some even received titles for their meritorious service.
Who wouldn't want to be awarded the title of Duke.
Lantian City.
As the snowflakes continued to fall, pedestrians on the originally bustling streets became scattered. People were reluctant to go out under the heavy snow.
And right at the city gate.
Bai Yan was wearing civilian clothes, sitting on a carriage, driving the carriage into Lantian City.
Looking at the wooden houses in the city and the tall buildings covered with white snow, it feels like you have arrived in a snowy city.
At this moment, if I hadn't felt the wind and snow hitting my face, if it hadn't been for the coldness on my face, this scene of ice and snow might have been really intoxicating.
Bai Yan drove the carriage to a well-decorated inn, and then stopped the carriage.
"Guests! How many are there?"
Inside the inn, the waiter looked enthusiastic when he saw Bai Yan. However, the moment he walked out of the inn door, he felt the biting coldness accompanied by the breeze. The waiter paused and shivered while walking.
"Three!"
After Bai Yan got off the carriage, he said to the waiter.
At this time, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and Bao Shi and Xi slowly stepped out of the carriage. At this moment, both women were covered with a piece of thick clothing.
Bai Yan once thought about spending a huge sum of money to buy a wolfskin coat or sheepskin fur for Bao, but he didn't come across any of them along the way, so he had no choice but to give up.
I originally thought of buying it in Xianyang. After all, Xianyang was the capital of the Qin State and there were countless vendors selling everything except rare treasures such as white fox fur.
But unfortunately, the heavy snow came much earlier than expected.
Fortunately, this heavy snow shouldn't last long.
Lantian is only one day's journey from Xianyang. As long as you go to Xianyang, you can buy Bao a warm coat for the winter.
"Watch out!"
Bai Yan helped Bao and Xi out of the carriage.
At this time, when the waiter saw Bao Shi, he suddenly became a little distracted.
The waiter swore that he grew up near Lantian and later worked in an inn. He had seen countless women, but he had never seen a woman who could compare with the lady in front of him.
No matter the guests passing by or the women in the restaurant, they were far less beautiful than the lady in front of me.
Inside the inn.
Bai Yan registered his identity as required.
The waiter was holding the bamboo slips and was about to register. However, when he saw Bai Yan's wooden sign, he was dumbfounded.
Five doctors!
Is this young man the fifth doctor?
After coming back to his senses, Xiao Er did not dare to look directly at Bai Yan anymore and became cautious.
The waiter knew very well that neither he nor the shopkeeper could afford to offend a fifth doctor.
No wonder he was able to marry such a stunning beauty at such a young age.
After a while.
Under the leadership of the waiter, Bai Yan, Bao Shi and Xi walked up to the second floor and came to two private rooms that were close together.
The room was not big, with only a bed, an arched stove, and a small wooden table placed in front of the window.
Compare mansions.
It couldn't be more crude.
But for an ordinary small house, this room is several times better.
After Bai Yan gave Bao's things and Xi put them in the room, seeing that it was still early, he informed Bao that he was going to Lantian Camp.
Lantian Camp.
In a camp.
"kill!"
"kill!"
The young Qin soldiers were holding long swords and practicing in an orderly manner.
At the front of these Qin soldiers, old soldier Yu was wearing Qin armor, looking at these young men who had been practicing for several months.
Suddenly, at a camp not far away, a young man wearing thick cloth and wearing a Qin sword was walking towards them, leading a war horse.
Old soldier Yu looked around and saw that dozens of Qin soldiers who were practicing also turned their heads to look.
now.
All the Qin soldiers were stunned on the spot, staring blankly at the figure who had been with them for a long time in their memory.
Old soldier Yu looked at the young man holding the horse, his eyes full of emotion.
He has heard about the young man's deeds.
The young man who used to be determined to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield finally returned today!
See that boy again.
Old soldier Yu was filled with emotions. Although he knew that the young man was practicing martial arts and preparing armor, and was determined to be the first to conquer the battlefield, who would have thought that after the young man went to the battlefield, he would make one jaw-dropping feat after another.
Old Soldier Yu had always heard that some people were born to be generals, but he didn't believe it at first.
The young man in front of him made him feel that that sentence was not wrong.
Some people, regardless of their age, are born to be generals.
In heavy snow.
Dozens of young Qin soldiers were looking at the young man holding the horse with complicated eyes.
After the destruction of Han Dynasty, the army returned, and countless new soldiers in the army regretted it.
But if we really want to regret it, I am afraid that among all the new soldiers in Lantian, they should be the ones who regret it the most.
Because they had practiced together with that young man and gone to eat together.
But now, that young man has returned from the battlefield, and his title is already the fifth official of the Qin Kingdom!
A title that is beyond the reach of all of them.
With the breeze carrying fine snow blowing across their faces, each of the new soldiers watched the young man slowly walk to General Yu.
"Bai Yan, I have met General Yu!"
Under the watchful eyes of dozens of Qin soldiers, Bai Yan bowed his hands in salute to General Yu.
"Your title"
Yu Laozu sighed in his heart and shook his head with a smile. He wanted to say that Bai Yan's title was higher than his, but when the words came to his lips, he looked at the young man in front of him and remembered the scenes when the young man got along with him in Lantian.
When leaving, the backs of eight teenagers turned around and left after visiting him.
"You kid, just come back!"
Old soldier Yu changed his words and looked at the young man in front of him who was from the Bai family and named Bai Yan.
For some reason, he who once had no hope suddenly had some hope now.
Although this boy is still young, with his abilities, he may be able to hope to fight against Zhao in ten years.
Under the falling snow.
Bai Yan put away his hand, slowly raised his head and looked at General Yu,
