After Bai Yan left the hut, he walked alone on the dark street.
According to the old man's words, the people behind those dead soldiers were the Xiang family in the Chu Kingdom.
Then the previous guess was correct. The person who betrayed Bai Yu was the Chu official in the Qin court.
Bai Yan knew why Xiang wanted to kill Bai Yu.
As long as Bai Yu dies, the Bai family's cavalry will panic. When South Korea is given a chance, it will also lay the groundwork for Qin to attack Zhao in the future, buying time for Chu. This is good or bad for Chu.
And for the Xiang family, I am afraid that not only Bai Yu, but also the Bai family and the Xiang family will cease to exist if there is a chance in the future.
"Bai Qi! You have been dead for twenty-seven years, why are there still so many messes? And blind people like Chu and Zhao, do you know that it will be Wang Jian and the Wang family who will destroy you in the future?"
Bai Yan murmured.
He once knew that it would be Wang Jian, Wang Ben and his son who would destroy Zhao, Wei, Yan, Chu, and Qi in the future. That's why he chose to have the surname Bai, and only the surname Bai could be chosen.
He did not expect that there was Bai Yu among the Qin army. The existence of Bai Yu and Bai's cavalry undoubtedly reminded Chu and Zhao from time to time not to forget how Bai Qi defeated them and how many people he killed thirty years ago.
.How humiliating Bai Qi made them, and how many cities they lost.
Bai Yan knew that this time it was because of his low status that the Xiang family of Chu State did not know of his existence. If the Xiang family found out that there was a descendant named Bai among the cavalry, I am afraid that the person who was assassinated by the Xiang family would be him next time.
Regardless of whether he admits it or not, in the eyes of others, he is a descendant of the Bai family.
"I just want to make you a general."
Bai Yan murmured, looking up at the moonlight.
He once wanted to get away from the intrigues of the court, he just wanted to be appointed as a minister and a general, so that when he returned home in the future, his family would be able to look majestic and the villagers could see that what his grandmother said was true.
He has no choice now.
Bai Yu was poisoned. He must become the commander of the cavalry as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the surname of the Bai family is like a talisman for death. Once Zhao and Chu learn about it, they will definitely kill him as long as there is a chance. There is also whether the Chu clan in Qin's court will help Chu again.
Once Bai's cavalry disappears, the end will not be easy for him.
"I once wanted to advance slowly and not return home with a bad reputation, but you forced me to do so!"
Bai Yan looked at the moonlight, his eyes gradually becoming firmer.
Inside the mansion.
Chai and other cavalry generals were always guarding the door.
Seeing Bai Yan come back, everyone looked over.
"Yan!"
Chai looked at Bai Yan worriedly. Bai Yu's condition was worse than imagined. Although General Bai Yu's life was saved, he was still unconscious. Doctors said that General Bai Yu would probably need to rest in the future.
This incident was too sudden. No one expected it and had no preparation at all.
Chai knew that for Bai Yan, the situation was even worse.
"How is uncle?"
Bai Yan asked.
Chai then informed Bai Yan of Bai Yu's condition and the doctor's words.
Bai Yan nodded and looked at the generals of the cavalry in the yard. These are the foundation of the Bai family's cavalry.
"We will let the soldiers rest and recuperate. We will escort the food and baggage to the new city tomorrow."
Bai Yan said.
Chai and the other cavalry generals nodded, understanding that the supply of food and grass and baggage was related to the success or failure of the Qin army in Xincheng to destroy Han, and they must not be delayed for too long.
At this moment, Chai and the generals did not know that the 'escort' in Bai Yan's words was not an ordinary escort.
Bai Yan came to the room and looked at Bai Yu who had passed out.
After thinking for a while, he placed the three bamboo slips next to Bai Yu.
Before Bai Yu fell asleep, he had already informed General Sima Xing. Calculating the time, based on the relationship between Bai Yu and Sima Xing, Sima Xing would arrive in Yangcheng before sunset tomorrow.
And early tomorrow morning, except for the cavalry soldiers who stayed in Yangcheng, he will take all the other cavalry soldiers out of Yangcheng.
The general was attacked and the general was poisoned and fainted. All the cavalry soldiers needed to win a battle to offset their guilt. The previous humiliation required the cavalry soldiers to be baptized with blood.
This is something he must lead the cavalry soldiers to do. He needs to prove his ability to the cavalry soldiers.
He couldn't wait for Sima Xing.
Sima Xing's presence or absence are two different situations for him and the cavalry soldiers.
Therefore, these three scrolls of bamboo slips were left to Sima Xing.
When Sima Xing came to see Bai Yu, he would definitely see the bamboo slips and naturally understand what he was going to do.
New Town.
In the vast Qin army camp, huge bonfires were lit everywhere. Looking from the sky, one could not see the end.
And in a coach's camp.
General Teng Lao, Sima Xing, Hu Jin and others are discussing tomorrow's attack.
"General, we should be able to break the city tomorrow!"
A general said to General Teng that there were more defenders in Xincheng than in Yangcheng in the past. However, after attacking the city in the past few days, the defenders of Xincheng had suffered considerable damage. If there were no accidents, Xincheng could be captured tomorrow.
"General Han may return to Xinzheng tomorrow."
Hu Jin also spoke at this time.
"How many casualties did our Qin army have?"
General Teng asked.
"More than 10,000 soldiers have died in the battle!"
Hu Jin said that in addition to attacking the city in the past few days, there were also many Korean soldiers in other places, causing a lot of casualties to the Qin army. And not only the casualties of soldiers, but also a lot of damage to ladders and the like. If we attack in the future,
At the time of Xinzheng, it probably would have taken a lot of time to make the ladder.
General Teng nodded. At this moment, rapid footsteps suddenly came from outside the camp.
"Report, general, urgent report from Yangcheng!"
A cavalry officer hurriedly came outside the camp.
"Yangcheng?"
"Yangcheng?"
In the camp, a famous general couldn't help but murmured in confusion when he heard that it was an urgent report from Yangcheng. For some reason, everyone had a bad premonition.
I'm afraid something happened to the food and baggage supplies!
"Come in!"
General Teng said.
Hu Jin and Sima Xing looked at each other uneasily. Bai Yu was left behind in Yangcheng. They all knew Bai Yu's temperament. If it was not a serious matter, they would never order someone to report to General Teng urgently.
At this time, a cavalry soldier covered with dust and with bloodshot eyes walked into the camp.
Seeing the appearance of the cavalry soldiers, Hu Jin and Sima Xing felt their hearts skip a beat.
"Reporting to the general, Han soldiers dressed up as Qin soldiers and raided Yangcheng. General Bai Yu was ambushed while escorting grain and grass. The ambusher smeared poison on his sword, and General Bai Yu was stabbed three times."
The cavalry officer opened his mouth to report.
"Has Yangcheng been lost?"
"disguise?"
As the cavalry officer finished speaking, General Teng's pupils shrank, and other generals also widened their eyes.
"How is Bai Yu doing now?"
"How could Han soldiers put poison on the sword?"
Sima Xing and Hu Jin stepped forward nervously and asked, both of them were Bai Yu's friends. How could they still be calm now that they heard that Bai Yu had been poisoned?
"Back to General, Yangcheng was discovered by Bai Yan and was not lost. The food and grass supplies were protected by General Bai Yu and were not burned down."
The cavalry officer said, then turned his head.
"General Sima Xing, General Bai Yu ordered me to give this to you!"
The cavalry officer handed the bamboo slips to Sima Xing and told Sima Xing that the bamboo slips were sent here after Bai Yu was injured.
Sima Xing snatched the bamboo slip and opened it hurriedly. When he saw the contents, his face turned even paler.
Hu Jin also saw the contents of the bamboo slips at the side. Only then did he understand that the situation in Yangcheng was far more complicated and dangerous than here.
Inside the tent.
General Teng Lao and other generals were relieved when they heard that Yangcheng had not been lost and that the food, grass and baggage were still there.
Although I don’t know how Bai Yan was able to see through Han Zu’s careful plan, nothing happened to Yangcheng after all. And Bai Yu.
Think of this.
A famous general looked at Sima Xing and Hu Jin. Although they did not see the bamboo slips at this moment, they all felt that Bai Yu must be in bad condition.
Hu Jin was in charge of the siege and could not leave the army, so Bai Yuding needed Sima Xing to rush back to Yangcheng.
There is poison on the sword, someone wants Bai Yu to die!
its purpose.
A famous general thought of the young man at this moment and looked at each other.
If something really happened to Bai Yu, then even though the young man was a descendant of the Bai family, he did not have the title to become a cavalry general.
"General!"
Sima Xing's eyes were full of eagerness, and he took the bamboo slip and gave it to General Teng.
General Teng did not refuse. Where Bai Yu was now, the success or failure of destroying Han was related. He took the bamboo slips and read them.
"Tomorrow you will lead two thousand soldiers and rush back to Yangcheng."
After General Teng read the bamboo slips, he looked up at Sima Xing.
Every Thursday or Friday, I have to go to the hospital for injections. I am so anxious. Please tell me if there are any typos. Thank you all!
