Qin Gong

Chapter 155

After reading the bamboo slips.

Hu Jin hurriedly left the mansion and took a carriage to the sheriff's mansion.

After a while.

Inside the Sheriff's Mansion.

Yang Xian, Li Pingyan, and Hu Jin sat on their knees in a study room. On the wooden table in front of them were two scrolls of bamboo slips sent by Gao Nu.

"Then Bai Yan has intentions, but based on guesswork and no evidence, he wrote to ask for help."

Li Pingyan looked at the bamboo slips, then shook her head and sighed.

Li Pingyan, who is the censor, also received a letter from Bai Yan, the magistrate of Gaonu County, but after reading the content, Li Pingyan's first reaction was that he didn't think well.

Based on his own guess, he wrote to Yuzhong, asking the county guard and supervisor to ask for help from other counties.

In this world, there is nothing more ridiculous than this.

"But Bai Yan's letter is well-founded, and Beijun is indeed abnormal."

Hu Jin said.

Among the three, he was the only one who believed in Bai Yan.

After all, he had been with Bai Yan during the war against Korea, and he knew that although Bai Yan was young, Bai Yan, who was restrained, would not say such words easily, or even ask for help.

Believe it or not, but Hu Jin also knows that Bai Yan has no evidence and wants to ask other counties for help, and the county guard and supervisor will never agree.

really.

After Hu Jin finished speaking, Sheriff Yang Xian shook his head.

"Beijun is abnormal. It cannot be said that the Yue clan will raid Shangjun."

Yang Xian, in his fifties and sixties, stroked his long beard and spoke.

It's not difficult to hear from the words, compared to Hu Jin, Yang Xian, like Li Pingyan, doesn't believe in Bai Yan.

Even the bamboo slips on the desk had only two volumes, one by Li Pingyan and the other by Hu Jin. As for Yang Xian's volume, after reading it, it was thrown aside casually.

"But Bai Yanruo's guess is correct."

Hu Jin frowned slightly when he heard Li Pingyan and Yang Xian's words.

Hu Jin also knew that Bai Yan was a little reckless this time, but Hu Jin imagined that if Bai Yan's guess was true, the consequences would be very serious.

"If Bai Yan guesses that the Yue clan will raid Shangjun, he should try his best to find out if it is true, instead of directly writing a letter!"

Yang Xian said.

In the eyes of Yang Xian, a veteran of the Qin State, if it wasn't for Hu Jin today, he wouldn't bother to pay attention to this matter at all.

The Bai family, named Bai Yan's descendant, was indeed quite famous for his achievements at a young age during the war against Korea.

But Hu Jin is not mentioned, it is Yang Xian and Li Pingyan, who were not born in a family of generals!It can be said that when Yang Xian led the army to fight, Bai Yan's father was probably still in the womb.

Right now, Bai Yan, a young son of a noble family, just based on a deduction and guess without the slightest evidence, wants him, as a county guard, to ask for help from other counties.

It would be fine if the Xiongnu really came, but if not, how would Yang Xian explain to the king?

"Indeed, this matter is not trivial, and we must investigate it!"

Li Pingyan also spoke at this time, looking at Hu Jin.

In fact, both he and Yang Xian knew that Hu Jin had a close relationship with the Bai clan.

Inside the study.

Hu Jin couldn't help but fell silent when he heard Yang Xian and Li Pingyan's words.

The county guard, supervisor, censor, and county lieutenant complement each other and check and balance each other. His right is to mobilize a county's soldiers and horses, and other things cannot be involved.

The right of the county guard is to manage the people of a county. Except for him, Li Pingyan and the city guard orders, other officials and county guards can be directly appointed and dismissed.

Although Li Pingyan, the censor, does not participate in the management of soldiers and horses, nor interferes in the political affairs of the county, he is responsible for supervising all officials including the sheriff and the county lieutenant, and can directly write to the censor Zhongcheng, then to the censor doctor, and finally to the censor. The king looked over.

Regarding Bai Yan's matter right now, Yang Xian and Li Pingyan would not write to ask for help at all, and it would be useless to rely on him alone.

a day later.

Among the continuous mountains between Yuzhong and Gaonu.

"Drive~! Drive~!!!"

Goooooooo~!

More than [-] iron cavalry officers and soldiers rode war horses, accompanied by five or six black flags with Qin characters fluttering in the wind, and rushed towards Yuzhong City.

The leader, Bai Yan, is already wearing Qin Armor and equipped with Qin Jian.

After a while.

Looking at several cavalry officers and soldiers in the distance, Bai Yan raised his hand to signal to stop, and then reined in the horse rope.

Behind Bai Yan, more than [-] cavalry officers and soldiers stopped slowly along with Bai Yan.

"General!"

After several iron cavalry soldiers who came from a distance stopped, the leader of the soldiers rode forward and handed the two scrolls of bamboo slips to Bai Yan in front of him.

After Bai Yan took the bamboo slip, he slowly opened it and looked at the contents inside.

The first volume was written by the county magistrate Yang Xian. There were only a few words in it, not many words, but he was asked to investigate and verify.

Putting away the first volume, Bai Yan looked at the second volume. The second volume belonged to General Hu Jin. General Hu Jin was also in the letter, telling Bai Yan that if he could not prove it, it would be impossible to mobilize reinforcements from other counties.

After reading the two volumes of bamboo slips, Bai Yan was not surprised and handed over the bamboo slips to his cronies.

Under the mountains and rivers.

A famous cavalry officer was riding on horseback, looking at Bai Yan.

But Bai Yan looked in the direction of Yuzhong City, and it didn't go smoothly as expected. The two scrolls of bamboo slips told him that it would probably be futile for him to continue to Yuzhong.

Because even General Hu Jin said bluntly in the bamboo slips that without hard evidence, the county guard would never ask for help.

But when Bai Yan thought of the people of Gaonu, he thought of the countless people in the city, men, women, old and young, countless children.

"Go to Yuzhong City!"

Bai Yan's gaze gradually became firmer, and then he took the lead and continued towards Yuzhong City, driving his horse.

Knowing that he couldn't do it, he did it, even if the hope was slim, Bai Yan still wanted to see the sheriff with his own eyes.

"promise!"

"promise!!"

More than [-] iron cavalry officers and soldiers, together with several iron cavalry officers and soldiers from just now, hurriedly followed Bai Yan and rushed towards Yuzhong City together.

Another day passed.

In Yuzhong City, on the top of the city, a Qin official stood guard with a long spear, and at the city gate, several Qin officials were checking the people entering and leaving.

A cavalry came quickly on horseback, and after arriving in front of Qin officials, he took out a wooden sign.

"Gaonu city guard wants to see the county guard!"

The iron knight said.

After confirming his identity, he saw more than [-] iron cavalry officers and soldiers driving towards the city gate in the distance. Several Qin officials guarding the city gate nodded one after another, and then moved out of the way.

Accompanied by the sound of dense horseshoes approaching.

A moment later, under the watchful eyes of Qin officials, a famous cavalry officer galloped past his eyes on a horse.

Northern steppe.

On a mound, three Yuezhi men on horseback, wearing machetes, were chatting.

Looking around the three men, the open grassland was extremely empty, only the huge cold wind kept whistling.

At this moment, the three of them saw the northern sky, and a crowd of thousands of horsemen suddenly appeared, slowly rushing towards here.

Because they knew that people from other tribes would come to gather in these two days, the three of them did not panic.

"Go and tell Princess Yangjin that the warriors from the Turlu tribe in the north have arrived first!"

Among the three, the leading man said to the other.

Another Yuezhi man nodded, turned around and rushed towards the tribe.

　Do what you can't do, fight what you can't fight!
