"I heard that there is another fighting over in Dongcheng!"
"Hurry up, I'll go back first!"
"Go, go, go!"
On the street, people of all ages, men, women, and children were running quickly on the street. They kept mumbling.
In Lu's shop, the shopkeeper also closed the shop door early.
Lu Qi, who was on the second floor, heard the comments of the people on the street. He was panicking and felt extremely bitter in his heart. He was the youngest among the men of the Lu clan. His eldest brother and cousin had already taken over Qi and Qin.
Take the place.
I originally thought that this time Qin's attack on Korea would be his opportunity.
Who would have thought that when they came to Yangcheng, they would realize that things were far from that simple. No wonder my cousin and eldest brother refused to enter Korea before Qin conquered Korea.
But now he could only grit his teeth and hold on. Ever since he informed his tribe that he was coming to Korea, he had no way out.
"Yan?"
Lu Qi was irritated and stretched his head to look out the window. He wanted to see if the Han soldiers were coming to kill him, but he didn't expect that when he stuck his head out just now, he saw Yan walking down the street holding a set of Qin armor.
The body is covered with blood.
Lu Qi looked at Yan and then at Dongcheng.
"Could it be that you're keeping it?"
Lu Qi murmured, his chubby face full of confusion.
Inside the mansion.
Bai Yan returned to the room, placed Qin Jia in the room, and placed Gui's wooden sign on Qin Jia.
Bai Yan did not take off his bloody armor in a hurry, but took Qin Jian and sat in the yard wearing the armor.
Like Chai and others, Bai Yan is also waiting for news about Bai Yu.
Yangcheng was not lost.
But this does not mean that the Korean army who raided the food and baggage supplies will give up.
Before getting any news about Bai Yu's whereabouts, the only thing he could do was to wait for military orders in Yangcheng.
With the sunset.
Under Chai's instructions, a Qin official came to the mansion with several scrolls of bamboo slips.
Bai Yan took the bamboo slip, opened it, and looked at the names inside.
In the following time, Bai Yan did not leave the courtyard.
Youshi!
Xu Shi!
Haishi!
Time!
until midnight.
Neither Chai nor Bai Yan got the news.
Bai Yan was in the yard, looking up at the bright moonlight in the sky, wondering why the cavalry soldiers who went to inform Bai Yu had not returned yet.
This night.
Bai Yan did not take off Qin Jia. He did not dare to take off Qin Jia until he got the news.
On the second day, a ray of light rose in the sky.
In the courtyard, Bai Yan opened his eyes, a trace of tiredness appearing in his eyes.
All night long, there was no news!
For some reason, Bai Yan had some bad premonitions in his heart.
But the number of cavalry soldiers led by Bai Yu was nearly 8,000. Logically speaking, there should be no problem.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!!"
"Step aside!!"
At this time, Bai Yan heard that there seemed to be a lot of horse hooves outside the yard. Bai Yan quickly cheered up, got up and walked towards the gate of the mansion.
at the gate,
Bai Yan saw several cavalry soldiers stained with blood, and for some reason, he had a vague premonition.
Several cavalry officers were getting off their horses. After seeing Bai Yan, they hurriedly stepped forward.
"Yan, General Bai Yu orders you to go to Fusui immediately."
The leading cavalry general raised his hands to Bai Yan and said.
"Negative millet?"
Bai Yan frowned slightly, negative millet was only a few dozen miles away from here, why would Bai Yu let him go to negative millet at this time.
It was only a few dozen miles away, so Bai Yu could escort the grain and grass to Yangcheng.
Bai Yan looked at the red cavalry soldier's eyes, thought of something, and suddenly felt more uneasy.
The cavalry general looked at Bai Yan's expression and then lowered his head.
"At night, the general led us to escort the grain and grass. After receiving the news, we arrived all the way to Fushu. When it got dark, no less than three thousand enemy soldiers suddenly appeared. General Bai Yu led us to protect the grain and grass to the death."
The cavalry general raised his head and looked at Bai Yan with red eyes. He thought of those dead soldiers last night who wanted to kill General Bai Yu regardless of their lives.
"I never thought that among the enemy soldiers, there were more than 500 dead soldiers. Their purpose was not to provide food and baggage, but to kill General Bai Yu. We tried our best to protect General Bai Yu, but General Bai Yu was still hit by three swords. The swords were all smeared.
Too poisonous!"
The general said.
"poison?"
Bai Yan's eyes narrowed and his face turned pale after listening to the general's words.
There were dead soldiers among the Korean soldiers, and they even smeared poison on their swords. The matter was by no means as simple as raiding the food, grass and baggage. Someone wanted Bai Yu to die!
"Go and bear the millet!"
Bai Yan said.
No matter what happens now, Bai Yu must not have anything happen to him right now.
When he is about to die, all soldiers must be punished.
And these cavalry soldiers have followed Bai Yu in Shangjun and Zhao Guo through life and death all year round. If they are punished and replaced with generals, the combat power of these cavalry soldiers in the future will definitely not be what it used to be.
This is probably what the masterminds behind the death wish to achieve.
Yangcheng West Gate.
When Bai Yan and several cavalrymen arrived at the city gate on horseback, five hundred soldiers wearing armor, carrying long swords and crossbows, and General Qin's cavalry officers, were already waiting at the city gate.
"Yan, be careful all the way!"
After Chai watched Bai Yan come over, he warned Bai Yan, his eyes full of uneasiness.
After learning that General Bai Yu was assassinated by a poisonous sword, Chai knew that someone wanted to take advantage of Qin's opportunity to destroy Han and attack their cavalry.
Now Bai Yan is going to collect millet, and he will stay in Yangcheng.
"I will!"
Bai Yan nodded, then rode his horse and galloped towards the outside of the city.
More than five hundred cavalry soldiers also followed closely behind.
Boom boom boom~!!
Under the mountains and rivers, accompanied by the constant sound of horse hooves, not only Bai Yan, but also a famous iron rider looked at the mountains and rivers on both sides of the road with vigilance.
Fortunately, there was no ambush.
Three hours later, he was riding wildly on horseback.
Bai Yan finally led five hundred cavalry to negative millet.
And just when he arrived at Fushu, Bai Yan saw many iron cavalry soldiers taking a rest, carriages filled with food, grass and baggage, and tens of thousands of 'soldiers' still waiting at the same place.
There were dead bodies all around.
There were soldiers on cavalry, watchmen, civilians, and the corpses of enemy soldiers all over the ground.
Bai Yan realized that the bloody battle here last night was probably not as simple as what he heard.
"Bai Yan is here!"
"Bai Yan!"
"he came!"
When the nearby cavalry generals saw Bai Yan, they breathed a sigh of relief and stood up one after another.
None of their faces looked very good, and their eyes were a little confused.
Not just these generals, but also the rest of the cavalry officers.
The reason for this is not because of the bloody battle last night, but because General Bai Yu has always been their general, and they are also known as Bai's Iron Cavalry in the eyes of others.
Now that General Bai Yu is injured and poisoned, they will not only be punished and demoted, but what is even more worrying is that if General Bai Yu has an accident, they don't know who they will follow in the future.
They have followed General Bai Yu in Shangjun all year round, and have become accustomed to the title of Bai's cavalry.
When they go out and mention their names, no one will know them. But if they mention Bai's cavalry, other soldiers will know that they are Shangjun's cavalry.
The Bai family's cavalry is also the reputation that their former friends gained with their lives, their blood, and battles to the death.
They do not give up this reputation and follow other generals.
Not to mention that once they follow a mediocre general, they will end badly, but if they follow a famous general, they may be squeezed out by other generals.
Although Bai Yan's title is low now.
But they are more willing to follow Bai Yan. Bai Yan is a descendant of the Bai family, and Bai Yan's abilities and character are all recognized by them.
The only thing I'm worried about is...
Bai Yan's title is too low. If General Bai Yu is not here, Bai Yan's title cannot lead them. They will eventually have to serve under other generals and lose the name of Bai's Iron Cavalry.
"Yan, come with me!"
A cavalry general came to Bai Yan and said.
"good!"
Bai Yan glanced at the cavalry soldiers around him and nodded.
