Chapter 172 Prepare your horses and go to the Sheriffs Mansion!
Gulu gulu~!
On the plains, Gui was riding a war horse, looking at the smoke billowing Gaonu City in the distance, and rode towards it.
When he saw the cavalry soldiers in the distance, Gui was filled with excitement.
Kaonu City.
Meng Yu stood at the gate of the city and watched as all the city gates were burned down. At this moment, the city was full of traces of the fire.
Seeing Meng Yu who was burning the city for the first time, he felt a little lost.
Then, after listening to Bai Yan's detailed explanation of the alienation plan and the layout of the entire process, Meng Yu couldn't help but cheer.
"wonderful!"
Meng Yu sighed, and then looked at Bai Yan: "General Bai is worthy of being the queen of a famous family and a descendant of the Bai family!"
These words were spoken by Meng Su from the bottom of his heart.
"Master Meng is ridiculous!"
Bai Yan heard Meng Yu's words and said modestly.
Hearing Meng Yu say that he is a descendant of the Bai family, Bai Yan has become accustomed to it. After deciding to take the surname Bai, Bai Yan was mentally prepared, knowing that in the future, in the eyes of outsiders, he would be a descendant of the Bai family.
Currently, as the fifth official of the Qin Kingdom, apart from not wanting to reveal his identity, part of the reason is that Bai Yan wants to repay the Bai family's favor.
After all, all his exchanges with the Bai family were based on the fact that he was Zou Xing.
As a result, Bai didn't know from beginning to end that he was not Zou Xing at all.
And with the surname Bai, he not only received a lot of care from Bai Yu in the army, but also received an exceptional promotion from King Qin Yingzheng with his identity as Bai.
The most important thing is to become the current commander of Bai's cavalry.
Although he came to the Qin State in the first place, he wanted to be able to return to his hometown with the title of minister and general one day, so that he could meet his grandmother and family with his success.
But after the battle to destroy Korea, Bai Yan saw with his own eyes that the old Korean tribe still existed, and Bai Yan knew that rather than being a minister or a general, this army of cavalry who were willing to follow him in the future was his greatest reliance.
Especially when facing the old tribes of the Six Nations.
While thinking.
Seeing that sunset was approaching, Bai Yan was about to take Meng Yu away when he suddenly heard the sound of a warrior not far behind him.
Bai Yan turned around and looked over, and then he saw a familiar figure riding towards him on horseback.
Looking at that extremely familiar figure.
I have thought about how many times, when I saw this moment with my own eyes, Bai Yan was both surprised and excited.
After a while.
The war horse stopped, and the Qin soldier came to Bai Yan and bowed his hands in salute.
"Gui, meet the general!"
The soldiers of Qin were wearing strange Qin armor and had a Qin sword on their waist.
Under the gaze of everyone, Bai Yan looked at Qin Zu with a slight smile.
"Next time, Qin Jia, please be careful and don't let others pass through!"
Bai Yan's words were incomprehensible to everyone else.
But only the Qin soldier named Gui heard it and remembered what Bai Yan had done. He smiled and scratched his head.
At this moment, the two people who reunited after a long separation did not exchange too many greetings. They stood together as they had before, never leaving each other.
Yuzhong City.
As the sun sets, countless people are still homeless in the city.
"When can we return to Gaonu City?"
"Yeah, when can we go back?"
On the street, the people on both sides of the street are thinking about returning to Gaonu almost all the time.
As the sun sets, the already cold breeze becomes even more biting.
The longer he stayed in Yuzhong City, the more he suffered, and the greater the complaints among the people.
"Sir! When can we return to Gaonu?"
Suddenly, the people on both sides of the street, some of whom suddenly saw several Qin officials in the distance, stood up and asked eagerly.
Because after arriving in Yuzhong, they had all seen these Qin officials following the county guard, and the county guard's orders were usually conveyed by these Qin officials.
on the street.
Surrounded by countless people, several Qin officials quickly came to a higher position.
"I have some good news for you!"
The leading Qin official looked at the people on the street and said.
"The Sheriff has learned that the imperial court has sent ministers to Gaonu. In less than two days, the Sheriff will arrange for you to return to Gaonu."
Official Qin's voice fell.
In an instant, the densely packed Gaonu people on the entire street, men, women, old and young, all became excited.
"Finally I can go back!"
"No, it's great. Finally we don't have to sleep on the street!"
"Didn't you hear it? The Lord County Governor means the ministers of the court. He has gone to Gaonu to hold him accountable. It is estimated that the city guard of Gaonu City will need to be replaced in the future!"
"What a good thing! Then how can Bai Yan be the guard of a city? It would be better to replace him as soon as possible!"
After knowing that they would be able to return to Gaonu in just two days at most, the people on the street breathed a sigh of relief and their faces were full of joy.
When they heard that Bai Yan, the city guard of Gaonu City, might be dismissed from his post, countless people applauded.
After arriving in Yuzhong, they all knew what happened. The county governor had no idea about their migration to Yuzhong this time. It was all Bai Yan who made the decision without permission.
Many people even inquired that a long time ago, the county governor strictly ordered Bai Yan to investigate first before making a decision. Unexpectedly, Bai Yan not only disobeyed the order, but also stubbornly stood in the mansion for more than two hours.
The slave even gave the order directly.
at the moment.
When they learned that the ministers sent by Xianyang had gone to Gaonu, the people finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, for ordinary people like them, no one wants to live in a place controlled by a person who does not obey the orders of the county magistrate and dares to make decisions without authorization.
"Step aside!"
"Step aside!!"
On the noisy streets, many people suddenly saw a few soldiers on horseback hurriedly entering the city in the direction of the city gate in the distance.
From the looks of it, he seems to be in a hurry.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way~!"
Accompanied by the shouts of several horsemen, the people on the street moved out of the way.
Then I saw several horse soldiers riding quickly through the street.
The mansion of the county lieutenant.
Hu Jin walked in the courtyard, looking at the dusk sky with a thoughtful look on his face.
Even standing in the mansion, Hu Jin could faintly hear the complaints of the people outside the mansion.
Censor Zhongcheng Meng Yu has already gone to Gaonu.
Bai Yan's dismissal seems to be a certainty.
"Why is it Meng Yu!"
Hu Jin frowned. Meng Yu's arrival made Hu Jin keenly aware that something was wrong.
Because Meng Yunai was an old member of the Meng clan in the Qin State, and was highly valued by all the Qin kings. Even before, when Lao Ai and Lu Buwei were in power, not only did they not give face to Lu Buwei many times, they even refused to give face to Lao Ai and the Queen Mother Zhao.
Therefore, there were several times when I almost couldn't save my life.
It was not until the king came to power that Meng Yu was allowed to continue to be the censor and chief minister to intimidate all officials.
"Is there someone in the court who is disadvantageous to Bai Yan?"
Hu Jin murmured, but he couldn't figure out why Bai Yan was a political enemy before he entered the court.
"General! It's not good!"
Suddenly, a Qin soldier ran from a distance and hurriedly came to Hu Jin's side.
"What's the matter?"
When Hu Jin saw this, he asked with some confusion.
"Report from Yunshan Pass, Yuezhi, Xiongnu led a large army south and raided Anu, the number is no less than 150,000!"
Qin Zu gasped and said to Hu Jin, holding the bamboo slip from the Yinshan Pass.
Hearing the words,
Hu Jin's eyes widened instantly, filled with shock.
"What?"
Hu Jin doubted his ears.
Yuezhi, the Xiongnu army of 150,000 went south?
In a panic, Hu Jin hurriedly reached out and took the bamboo slip, opened it and looked at it.
"not good!!"
After Hu Jin read the bamboo slips, his back felt cold.
At this moment, Hu Jin didn't even have time to think about Bai Yan, nor did he have time to think about the censor, Cheng Meng Yu, who, like Bai Yan, was still in Shangjun.
Hu Jin understood, let alone Bai Yan and Meng Yu.
Facing the 150,000 troops of the Yuezhi and the Xiongnu who suddenly moved south, it would be a disaster for the entire Shangjun!
No one is immune!
"Come here, prepare your horses and go to the Sheriff's Mansion!"
Hu Jin put away the bamboo slips, turned around and ordered.
Just when Hu Jin asked his servants to prepare their horses.
Sheriff's Mansion.
At this moment, Yang Xian was sitting on his knees in the main hall. After hearing Qin Zu's report, he stared blankly at Qin Zu under the main hall and released the wine prince in his hand.
Boom~!
The wine baron fell onto the wooden table full of wine and meat, making a sound and the wine spilled.
Sorry, dear readers, I went to a relative's house to help out today, thinking it would be done quickly.
Later I found that there were not enough people and I was too embarrassed to leave.
I stayed at a relative's house for dinner and came back late. I was in a hurry to finish the manuscript!
