"Yes! We have received news that Ying Zheng will leave from the east gate at noon, accompanied by the Xianyang garrison and the Bai family's cavalry under the command of Qin General Bai Yan!"
On the streets of Xianyang City.
Xiang Ji, Xiang Juan (bo), and Zhang Xiao, Zhang said that the four of them were walking on the street, whispering to each other in private.
At this moment, people are coming and going on the street, and there are endless noises. Xiang Ji and Xiang Tao are not worried about being heard by others. Although Xianyang is the capital of Qin State, in Xianyang City at this moment, in addition to the people of Qin, people from the Six Kingdoms are also
It's quite a lot.
"Most of the generals among Bai Yan's cavalry are descendants of Bai Qi's old tribe, and they are loyal to the Bai family!"
Xiang Juan said, although he is the youngest son of Xiang Yan of the Xiang family, Xiang Juan has been good at literature and martial arts since he was a child, and has great ambitions.
He prides himself on being the best in martial arts among all his brothers, but none of his brothers can match him in Wen.
"When I was in Shangjun, the Bai family's iron cavalry was under the command of Bai Yu, the grandson of Bai Qi, and they fought with the Zhao Bianqi of Li Mu of the Zhao Kingdom all the year round. Although they were rarely defeated, they won only a few battles, so there is nothing to be afraid of."
Xiang Juan looked at the pedestrians passing by. While walking, he would turn slightly from time to time to avoid bumping into other people.
Zhang Xiao, Zhang Sai, and Xiang Ji were also walking and listening.
During the conversation.
Xiang Tan sighed and looked at the road ahead.
"However, since Bai Yu was assassinated and poisoned, before he fell into coma, he had been anxious to see his clansman Bai Yan. At that time, Bai Yan was just a doctor who had just made meritorious service. However, in the battle of Yangcheng, Bai Yan was the first to ascend the city and kill him alone.
Kill one fifth official and twenty-one Korean soldiers!"
After Xiang Juan finished speaking, his steps unnaturally slowed down and he looked at his elder brother Xiang Ji.
When Xiang Ji heard his brother Xiang Bo's words, his eyes flickered slightly.
Speaking of Bai Yu's assassination and poisoning, no one knows it better than the two Xiang brothers.
After all, the assassin who assassinated Bai Yu was at the hands of the Xiang family.
But at that time.
The entire Xiang clan did not expect that there would be people from the Bai clan in Yangcheng, not far from Fushu in Han.
Think of this.
Xiang Ji couldn't help but feel a little irritated in his heart. He spent a huge price to raise the dead soldiers. He thought that after the dead soldiers assassinated Bai Yu, the Bai family's iron cavalry would change hands. By then, there would be no Bai family name, Changping Jun.
Then he could use his position and connections in Qin to break up the Bai family's cavalry.
Never thought about it.
The eldest brother Xiang Liang led the dead soldiers to fight with the Bai family's cavalry. He finally used the Qin army to protect the food and grass, and successfully assassinated Bai Yu among the Bai family's cavalry. Suddenly, a younger Bai family descendant appeared.
"It was at that time that Bai Yu held on until Bai Yan arrived and handed over the Bai family's cavalry to Bai Yan."
When Xiang Bo said this, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Since then, the Bai family's cavalry has been under the command of Bai Yan. From two years ago to now, they have made continuous achievements and have been undefeated in several battles. They even became famous in the battle of Shangjun. In the battle of Zhaodi, they fought Sima Shang and vaguely gained the upper hand."
At the end of the sentence, Xiang Bo frowned and looked at his elder brother.
Looking back now, whether it was him, his brothers, or even his father, no one did not regret it when they thought about it.
If he had known this earlier, it would have been better to let Bai Yu lead the Bai family's cavalry.
Based on everyone's understanding of Bai Yu's talents, whether it was in Shang County or Zhao Dilan, the Bai family's cavalry would still be led by Bai Yu.
It is estimated that the Bai family's cavalry has long been gone, and Lord Changping could have taken advantage of Bai Yu's death to start getting rid of the Bai family.
"Ying Zheng transferred Bai Yan back to Xianyang because he knew that the Bai family's cavalry would win every battle now. The fighting spirit is there and no one can stop them in a direct battle."
Zhang Xiao also echoed the same sentence.
Although Zhang Wei and his son have cooperated with Bai Yan and promised that as long as Zhang is cleared of the frame-up in the past, Zhang will definitely repay Bai Yan's favor in the future whenever he needs it.
But Zhang Xian never agreed to serve Qin from the beginning to the end.
In Zhang Xiao's eyes.
The state of Qin is the state of Qin, and Bai Yan is Bai Yan. Bai Yan can win over, induce, and corrupt his character with money and beauty.
But Qin will be destroyed no matter what.
Destroying Qin and restoring Han is something that every member of the Zhang family has always kept in mind, and they dare not forget it all the time.
"So this time, even a sudden attack will not threaten Ying Zheng at all!"
Xiang Juan nodded when he heard Zhang Xiao's words.
"I have received news that there are already many people ambushing Xianyang on the way to Handan, but more people are still waiting and watching!"
After Xiang Juan finished speaking, he stood with his hands behind his hands, squatted down and glanced at the sky of Xianyang City.
In fact, excluding the old clan forces in Zhao and Han, as well as other vassal states.
In this land of Qin, there are many people and forces who hope that Ying Zheng will die on the road.
As long as there is a chance.
Those people will take action.
And for this opportunity, we must find a way to lure away the Bai family's cavalry under Bai Yan's command.
Thinking room.
Suddenly, dense footsteps and commotion were heard in the distant streets.
This scene brought Xiang Tang back to his senses, and after looking at each other with his eldest brother Xiang Ji, he quickly looked forward.
After a while.
Under the gaze of the four people, suddenly countless Qin soldiers holding long swords drove pedestrians on the street.
"coming!"
Xiang Ji said, his eyes narrowed slightly, with murderous intent hidden in his eyes.
Ying Zheng is going to leave Xianyang.
If there are enough manpower, I really want to do it in Xianyang City.
"Kneel down quickly!"
Xiang Tang looked at his eldest brother, then saw the street in the distance, and quickly tugged at the corner of his eldest brother's clothes.
Now in Xianyang, the two brothers are just ordinary people. If Ying Zheng goes out at this time, he will undoubtedly seek death if he does not kneel down and worship.
During the conversation.
Xiang Juan has already pulled Xiang Ji to the side of the street.
However, when Xiang Ji heard that he was about to kneel down to Ying Zheng, his heart suddenly became violent and his face was filled with hesitation.
"Brother Ji, if you achieve great things, why should you care about it for a while?"
Zhang Xiao knelt on the ground, thought for a while, and whispered to Xiang Ji.
Zhang Xiao's words are obviously more useful than Xiang Bo's.
"snort!"
Xiang Ji snorted coldly, but looked at the people around him.
Although he was extremely reluctant, he still followed Zhang Xian and Xiang Bo's words and knelt on the ground together with other people around him.
Zhang said on the side that he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this.
Xiang Juan, on the other hand, seemed a little unhappy when he saw this.
At this moment.
A group of four people looked at the groups of Qin soldiers in the distance walking down the street holding long swords. They all lowered their heads and looked at each other.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
"You, you, stand back!!"
on the street.
Countless soldiers of the Qin State were walking on both sides of the street, urging the people to retreat while constantly scanning the surroundings to guard against hidden arrows in the shops and high-rise buildings.
These are the garrison troops in the royal palace of Xianyang City, and they are also the divisions of the royal capital.
Later.
Under the gaze of all the people, the thundering sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the direction of the palace. The mighty sound of horse hooves reached the ears of countless people kneeling on the ground, shocking the minds of all the people.
The four words "Qin cavalry" appeared in everyone's mind.
"The cavalry should have arrived at the city gate and are waiting outside the city gate!"
Zhang Xiao said softly.
Because we are now in the city of Qin State, and although the streets are wide, there is no need for the Bai family's cavalry to enter the city as the Xianyang garrison is there.
After all, there are dangers on the road. Xianyang City has always been heavily guarded. Even if someone has evil intentions, there is no way to assassinate Ying Zheng under the protection of the Xianyang defenders.
The most important thing is.
This was not Ying Zheng's first trip, but no matter which time it was, there were more than thirty identical six-horse ponies.
It is simply impossible to assassinate Ying Zheng in Xianyang City.
After a while.
On the street, under the watchful eyes of Xiang Ji and Zhang Xian, rows of Qin soldiers holding the black flags of the Qin State passed by, followed by carriages filled with property.
Then the first six-horse carriage appeared, escorted by Qin soldiers, and walked through the wide streets with a large number of eunuchs, maids, and ministers.
Second car! Third car!
"Rat!"
Xiang Ji looked at the six-horse carriages and the countless Qin soldiers with eyes full of contempt and sneer.
Such a king should be like a rat.
This world will definitely belong to them Qiangchu in the future!
among the common people.
Xiang Mao, Zhang Xiao and Zhang Shuo, who were also kneeling on the ground, suddenly heard Xiang Ji's faint voice next to them.
When they heard Xiang Ji's words clearly, the three of them were so frightened that they broke into a cold sweat.
Is this crazy?
Xiang Bo glared at his eldest brother angrily, then kept looking left and right, and his hand had quietly touched the dagger in his arms.
If someone around him reported Xiang Ji just now, he would kill that person immediately no matter what.
Then he escaped with Xiang Ji.
As long as Ying Zheng is not in Xianyang, even if they are caught, they can be released through Changping Jun's relationship.
Fortunately, a few breaths later.
Fortunately, some people around who heard something vaguely chose to shut up when they saw Xiang Juan's sharp eyes.
If someone violates the laws of Qin, he will be punished if he is protected, but if no one reports it, there is no such thing as a criminal, and no one wants to be the first one.
Anyway, if someone reports it, you will just say you didn’t hear it.
on the street.
Just when Xiang Bo and others were frightened by Xiang Ji and broke into cold sweats.
Among the several ministers wearing Qin official uniforms following the six-horse carriage, Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe were walking and laughing.
Looking at the people on both sides of the streets in Xianyang City, whether they were scholars or merchants, they were all kneeling on the ground.
At this moment, the two of them felt so satisfied with their vanity that they even wanted to shout to the sky and let everyone know their name as a walking minister.
"It's a pity that Rui is ill and can't go together!"
Zhu Zhe walked side by side with Jiang Jing while looking around, especially those young and beautiful women.
Whenever he saw that woman or woman peeking over, Zhu Zhe would hold his head high and deliberately look straight ahead.
"Speaking of which, Rui Wei ate the wrong thing from time to time. He was fine before drinking, but he started to feel unwell halfway through drinking!"
Jiang Jing heard Zhu Zhe's words and nodded.
Think back to that day.
Jiang Jing couldn't help but wonder, whether it was cleaning the carriage in the palace or going to the restaurant together, Rui Wei was fine.
Halfway through the drinking, Rui Wei suddenly turned pale, even without blood, and sweat continued to form on his forehead.
Later, Rui Wei left the restaurant early.
After returning home, he was bedridden the next day and could not even go with him on this trip to Handan.
pity!
What a pity!
During the conversation.
After a long time, as they walked behind the carriage, both Zhu Zhe and Jiang Jing saw that the city wall was close at hand.
Then the carriage drove out from the city gate with all the people kneeling down, Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe following behind.
He hasn't left the city gate yet.
Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe saw an endless line of Qin cavalry soldiers on both sides of the road outside the city, riding on their war horses, with countless black flags with the word Qin fluttering in the wind.
Looking at the cavalry soldiers wearing Qin armor, wearing Qin swords, and holding long spears.
At this moment, Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe, who felt the momentum of the cavalry army, couldn't help but have goosebumps on their bodies and their scalps were numb.
This cavalry outside the city.
It was the Bai family's cavalry who had previously fought against the Yuezhi and the Huns and captured Zhao Bianqi in Zhao territory!!!
Hiss~!
It is really majestic and shocking.
Inside the city gate.
Both Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe, like the other ministers and even the soldiers stationed in Xianyang, had their Adam's apples twitching as they looked at the endless cavalry outside the city, feeling both nervous and excited.
And when I thought about this trip, I was escorted by this cavalry all the way to Handan.
Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe couldn't help but think to themselves.
When I return to Xianyang in the future, I will be able to brag!
Rui Wei, this trip is really a loss, a huge loss.
"That's the cavalry general!"
Suddenly, the words of a servant in front of them brought Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe back to their senses. At this time, they were walking, and when they were about to walk out of the city gate, following the increasingly wider field of vision, they both came from outside the city gate wall.
I saw some cavalry generals riding war horses.
Seeing those burly and strong cavalry generals with cold eyes, Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe became nervous and breathed quickly.
Not only others, but Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe also knew it very well.
These cavalry generals are not those who kill enemies like hemp, but their hands are full of enemy lives. Bloody killing is already a common thing for these generals.
It's not like these cavalry generals have never done anything like burning a city and burning tens of thousands of people to death.
Inside the city gate.
When I thought about it, I would be able to meet the famous and ruthless Bai Yan, the leader of these cavalry generals.
Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe almost couldn't help but pee a little liquid into their crotches.
Thinking of Bai Yan's deeds, thinking of the merciless slaughter of nobles in Yanmen, and even some Qin generals died in Bai Yan's hands.
The two of them were nervous and scared, but they were looking forward to seeing what the legendary Bai Yan looked like.
What kind of person does he look like to be so ruthless and merciless, so that he can make these powerful and imposing cavalry generals follow him to the death and fight on the battlefield without any regrets?
Think of this.
Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe were full of expectations and fearful as they walked and looked towards the corner.
It’s almost! It’s almost! That’s Dr. Gong!
A little later.
Saw it!!!!
As they looked, Dang Zhuzhe and Jiang Jing saw a cavalry general with scars on his face, and Dang felt the majestic cavalry army outside the city and felt its momentum.
suddenly.
When the two of them saw the cavalry commander, they were both stunned on the spot, staring in disbelief.
Even the other attendants and some maids behind him looked at the two people blocking the city gate with confusion.
However, no one noticed at this moment.
Regardless of whether it was Jiang Jing or Zhu Zhe, their hands inside the huge embroidered robes were shaking.
at this time.
Jiang Jing and Zhu Zhe looked at the general in front of the cavalry generals in the distance, and saw the general riding a war horse and wearing Qin armor.
Looking at that young face that I had met once before.
The eyes of the two were filled with fear and fear.
white!
Bai Yan!!!
"Let's go!"
Suddenly, a waiter touched Jiang Jing. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jing's legs weakened and he collapsed directly on the ground.
This scene made Jiang Jing's servant dumbfounded. He looked to the left and right without knowing why, indicating that he did not push Jiang Jing hard.
Fortunately at this time.
Jiang Jing, who had regained consciousness, suddenly stumbled to his feet, lowered his head in a daze, and walked cautiously while his lips trembled.
See the situation.
The other ministers and maids were puzzled, but they were about to leave the city and couldn't care about anything else.
Everyone was worried about being rude and didn't dare to ask any more questions.
"Um?"
However, there were still a few maids, and the maid noticed that at some point, there were some wet spots on the ground.
Outside Xianyang City.
Accompanied by the fluttering black flags with the word "Qin", among the dense cavalry and Changge, the entire cavalry army was silent, riding their war horses and looking at the people passing by.
Bai Yan is riding a war horse. He is wearing armor and is wearing a Qin sword. Yan Mao and others are following him.
At this moment, Bai Yan's face was expressionless. Compared with other times, he seemed to be a different person wearing armor and sword. Everyone who was familiar with Bai Yan would feel this way.
Bai Yan didn't wear armor, just like a kind-faced neighborhood boy.
After putting on the clothes and armor, the whole person's aura and gaze make people feel cold and awe-inspiring, but also reassure those who are familiar with him.
At this moment.
Bai Yan also noticed that behind a six-horse carriage, among the ministers, eunuchs, and maids, there were two ministers walking with their heads down.
Looking at the two familiar figures who had met once before.
Bai Yan was riding on a war horse, but after a brief glance, he didn't care.
Just two waiters!
Bai Yan has methods and means to make these two ministers leave Xianyang and disappear from the world as time goes by.
But Bai Yan and those two people haven't gone that far yet.
at the moment.
It was those two people who felt guilty, wrong, and scared.
With the cold wind blowing.
Bai Yan turned around and looked around. The snow had stopped two days ago. At this time, laborers and criminals transferred from Lishan Mountain were already clearing the road ahead.
Today, when the sky was just getting bright, Feng, Yang, and Li sent people to bring him news from other places.
As Ying Zheng is about to leave Xianyang, on the road to Handan, there are already many forces preparing to take action, and more forces are also waiting and watching.
This line.
For him, it is also a test for the Bai family's cavalry.
Many people also hope that while killing Ying Zheng, they can also get rid of him, Bai Yan, and deal with the Bai family's cavalry.
Inside the city gate.
Suddenly, a general from the palace guard came out on horseback and came to Bai Yan.
Bai Yan came back from his thoughts, understood the movement, and then turned to look at the guard general.
"General Bai! This is the news that the king ordered me to send to the general! Only the general can know it!"
The general dismounted, came to Bai Yan, and handed two pieces of summoning cloth to Bai Yan.
Bai Yan reached out to take the summons cloth and looked at the contents on it.
The first piece records which carriage Ying Zheng rode on during this trip, as well as the location of the carriages ridden by some royal family members.
Then comes the second piece.
After reading the content written on the second piece of cloth.
Bai Yan put Bu Zhao into his arms, raised his head, and turned to look in the direction of Luoyang.
"Gui! Take five hundred cavalry and head to Luoyang first!"
Bai Yan opened his mouth and ordered.
Some people say that Xianyang does not have a city gate, while others say that Xianyang has a city wall. Some geographical surveys have done popular science. It seems that the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang is based on the scale of Xianyang, with inner and outer city walls.
After Qin Shihuang died, he also wanted to be in the royal mausoleum! Looking at the stars and oceans, he could rule everything in the city.
It says "city wall" here. Don't pay attention, folks!
