Qin Gong

Chapter 154 Crazy thoughts!
Gao Nu City.

As the sky darkened, the weather became colder and colder. Bai Yan, who couldn't sleep, came to the top of the city followed by Qin officials.

At a glance, under the cover of night, the lights of common people's houses seem to be spread in the earth, every house, every house.

Bai Yan stood on the top of the wall, staring up at the sky.

The cold wind brushed against his cheeks, but he didn't feel cold. Compared with the cold wind, Bai Yan looked at the bright moon and stars in the sky, and thought that ten days later, the army of Yuezhi and Huns would attack, and his heart was colder.

The problem Bai Yan is facing now is how to persuade the county guard to let the county guard Yang Xian write to Beidi, Hexi, and Hedong to ask for help.

Ten years ago.

Facing more than [-] Xiongnu, Li Mu was able to defeat it. Not only did it take several years, but also in the decisive battle, he carefully selected [-] chariots, [-] elite cavalry, [-] skilled soldiers, and [-] soldiers. famous archer.

At present, Gao Nu only has [-] Qin cavalry, and among them, there are more than [-] new cavalry.

In contrast to Li Mu, Gao Nu does not have [-] chariots and [-] crossbowmen now, and even if he goes to Yuzhong City tomorrow, he cannot guarantee that there will be [-] Qin soldiers.

"If there is no Bai Yan in the world, can Gao Nu escape this calamity?"

Bai Yan stared at the bright moon in the sky, at this moment, he murmured in his heart.

If he was still a young man named 'Yan', he didn't want the Bai surname back then, and now without the Bai Yan, a descendant of the Bai family, Gaonu City might not have such a catastrophe.

"Bai Yan, if the Xiongnu really let the Huns slaughter Gaonu City, you are the same as Mi Qi and Lu Lou, damn it!"

Bai Yan once again looked at Gaonu City, where there were lights, and muttered to himself.

The Xiongnu came so fast that he did not expect it. Before that, he thought that after Qin was unified, he had to face the Xiongnu.

But now that the Huns have united with the Yuezhi and are preparing to raid Gaonu, this battle is destined to be inevitable.

After a long time.

Looking at the lights of Wanjia in the city, when Bai Yan was about to leave, suddenly two Qin officials, a couple, and a child came towards him.

"Master City Guard! They said they wanted to find you!"

The official Qin came to Bai Yan, cupped his hands and said.

Then the couple stepped forward and bowed their hands to Bai Yan, and the child was the one who took him to the mansion today.

At this time, Bai Yan also noticed that among the couple, the appearance of the man was not from the Central Plains, which made Bai Yan quickly understand why the child could speak Xiongnu.

"Grassmen pay homage to the city guard!"

The couple knelt on the ground, and then took out three coins from their arms.

"Master City Guard, Today's Children"

The man kept explaining what happened today.

But at this moment, Bai Yan didn't listen, but looked at the burning torch in the woman's hand and the thick black smoke wafting out. This black smoke was pungent and smoky.

"As for money, take what you need. I gave it to your children. Get up!"

Bai Yan looked at the man's fearful expression, and explained softly.

On the city road.

After the man got up, seeing that the young city guard did not blame him, his heart that had been hanging before was finally let go.

If they hadn't noticed something strange about the child after returning home at night, and under pressure, the child would have spoken out, otherwise it would have caused a catastrophe.

"You are a Hun?"

Bai Yan looked at the man in front of him, since the man taught the child to know the Xiongnu dialect, this man should be from the Huns.

"My lord, the Caomin were indeed Huns before. After they came to the Central Plains, they met their wives and settled down in the Central Plains. Now the Caomin are also from the Qin Dynasty."

The man said to Bai Yan, then nervously took out the wooden sign from his pocket and handed it to Bai Yan.

Bai Yan looked at the wooden sign, nodded, and then returned it to the man.

Then he came to the child, squatted down, and looked at the child with his head lowered, but the side face was still red and swollen.

"You shouldn't beat him. He doesn't steal or rob. He just wants to bring money back to you, and I didn't tell him at the beginning that I am the city guard."

Bai Yan sighed.

After the words were finished, the child who had kept his head down looked up at Bai Yan with his glowing red eyes. The child who did not shed tears when he was beaten suddenly had tears in his eyes, which slowly flowed down his red and swollen cheeks.

"Your child can support a family at the age of ten, which is a hundred times better than those noble children in the world. You should feel happy."

Bai Yan reached out and rubbed the child's head, and said to the man behind him.

"what!"

"what!!"

The couple froze in place with a dazed expression.

Not to mention the couple, it was the two Qin officials behind Bai Yan, and the two Qin officials who brought the couple up just now. At this moment, they looked at the city guard with their mouths open, stunned.

It was the first time they had seen someone say such words, and it was said from the mouth of a young gentry boy. This gentry boy was not only the fifth doctor, but also the city guard.

Only the child forgot to shed tears at this moment, raised his head, and stared at Bai Yan in a daze with eyes blurred by tears.

"My lord, our husband and wife should remember!"

While speaking, the man pointed to the sky with his hand, then lowered his head, and placed his hands reverently on his left and right chests.

This is the most solemn etiquette of the Huns!It means respect and blessing.

After the man finished speaking, he turned his head to look at his son with a trace of guilt. His son said before that the city guard is different from other people, and he still didn't believe it, especially when he saw that the city guard was so young. , after all, where is the age.

However, right now, he is willing to give the best wishes to Lord Chengshou.

He has already realized that he has indeed wronged his son, and this young city guard is indeed different from everyone else.

"How did you get this?"

At this time, Bai Yan changed the topic to the torch in the woman's hand.

"Master City Guard, these torches were obtained from a tributary of the Yanshui River. There are a lot of them. Although the black fog is heavy and the smell is strong, it is not as convenient as oil."

Hearing the city guard's question, the man looked at the torch in his wife's hand: "But for us, it doesn't cost money, and it's enough to go out late, as long as it's not easy to stay at home."

Inside the city road.

Bai Yan listened to the man's words, looked at the torch, seemed to think of something, then turned to look at the lights of thousands of houses in the city.

A crazy idea emerged in his mind.

Two days later.

In Yuzhong City, in the county captain's mansion, Hu Jin is in the study, dealing with bamboo slips.

After being promoted to a county lieutenant, he was in charge of a county's soldiers and horses, and managed many pass captains. Now there are countless things to deal with every day.

"Report, County Lieutenant, Gao Nu is here to report!"

A Qin official hurried into the study, and then said to Hu Jin with a bamboo slip.

Hu Jin was a little surprised when he heard this.

Gaonu?Could it be that Lu Lou's case has progressed?

"Bring it up!"

Hu Jin said to Qin officials.

Lu Lou's case was always on his mind, like a boulder, and when he thought about it, he felt extremely depressed.

But Nai He had no clue at all.

Inside the study.

Hu Jin found out that the bamboo slips handed over by the official Qin slowly opened it, and soon realized that it was the bamboo slips sent by Bai Yan.

Thinking of that kid, Hu Jin couldn't help but smile a little, feeling a lot more relaxed. After all, he knew that even though Bai Yan was young, he was no weaker than others in leading the army.

However, watching and watching, Hu Jin frowned, and couldn't sit still when he saw the back.
