Qin Gong

"Drive! Drive!!!"

On the official road leading to Xianyang City, there are iron eagle warriors riding horses, wearing iron helmets and armors, looking at the people passing by with vigilant eyes. The bows and crossbows were hung impressively, and in the hands of each iron eagle warrior, there were also two other horses wrapped in cloth.

During the standard training for the selection of Wei military soldiers who were once famous all over the world, they had to carry a weight of 45 catties and walk hundreds of miles every day. On this basis, more than twice the weight was added, adding a full set of armor, a broad dagger, a refined iron dagger and a cowhide shield, with a total load of more than [-] catties. Various combat methods such as close combat, immediate combat, and dismounted combat.

It is also such a rigorous training that the Tie Ying Ruishi was in the hands of Sima Cuo just now, and he became famous all over the world in one battle, and his prestige was enough to make the world fearful.

And due to the long-distance raid and unique combat method, this also leads to the fact that Iron Eagles are often more powerful than tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops in combat, and they don't need to be easily defeated like the huge Qin army. Constrained by food and supplies, every iron eagle warrior is one man and three horses. When he is ordered to rush, he often does not need supplies for a long time, and he can always exert his maximum combat power at any time.

on the official road.

Almost without exception, all the common people, merchants, and even the Qin officials on horseback who had business to do along the way, as well as the carriages of the gentry, heard the sound of roaring horseshoes, and when they stopped and saw the iron eagle warriors on the road, they all cheered. They all made way, and no one dared to block them.

"I heard that Yingzheng ordered Tie Yingruishi to escort Bai Yan earlier, and the person riding in that carriage must be Bai Yan!"

"It should be right! If it weren't for Bai Yan, these iron eagle warriors would not have hurried back to Xianyang."

"I heard that before Shangqing Hu Quan passed away, the Bai family's children and Sima's clan were all there. Now that Bai Yan hurried back to Xianyang, it was probably because of this incident."

In each of the gentry carriages, no matter whether they are senior gentry elders with extensive experience or connections, or the children of the gentry who were arrogant and domineering in the past, when the word Bai Yan is mentioned, everyone's cheeks I can no longer see the arrogance that has been hanging around in the past.

No matter who they are, no matter who they are, they dare not despise this upstart of the Qin State who has won the favor of Ying Zheng and has an elite and heavy army.

the other side.

After passing through the Hangu Pass, follow the steep road in the middle of the mountains until you arrive at a road north of the Qinling Mountains. After the river flows down and joins other rivers, it is called Candle River.

This is also one of the biggest natural dangers after arriving at Hangu Pass. After all, it relies on the Qinling Mountains, and next to it is the Wei River, which is enough to drown people. After the Central Plains conquered Hangu Pass in the past, they suffered a lot here.

However, in later generations, as the Wei River became smaller and the river moved northward, the riverbed under the road was exposed, and this dangerous place was completely useless. Another dangerous pass is the famous Tongguan Pass, but at this moment, the famous pass is still just a wild forest beside the river.

"General! The road ahead has collapsed!"

Qin Sui, the general of Tie Ying Rui Shi, rode a horse, slowly came to the carriage, and reported to the carriage.

After a few breaths, the curtain of the carriage slowly opened, and Bai Yan's figure stepped out of the carriage.

After arriving at the border of Qin State and joining Tie Ying Rui Shi, Bai Yan has been running around for days, and the carriage he is riding now is the public carriage.

In the state of Qin, as long as the title of title is public, you can take the official car, which is why Bai Yan gave the horse to the uncle at the beginning.

"Let the soldiers rest well!"

Bai Yan said to Qin Sui, and slowly got off the carriage, while Mang also wore Qin Jian, and followed Bai Yan all the time.

After Qin Sui said a few words to the soldiers beside him, he got off his horse and walked towards Bai Yan.

"Isn't that Mang? I heard that he has already become a doctor!!!"

"you recognize?"

"Of course we know each other. Back then in Luoyin, my family went to buy meat from his stall. His wife and mother had seen it. I heard that he was framed a long time ago. After the investigation by General Bai, he was cleared of the crime. To repay General Bai, Mang joined the army, and later when he heard the news about Mang, he heard that Mang was already a grand duke, and the rumors that Mang's wife and mother heard about it couldn't believe it."

"Hiss, there is still such a thing?"

After entering the Hangu Pass, they were all in the hinterland of the Qin State. After passing the Qinling Mountains, most of them were old Qin people. Among them were some ordinary people who were stranded on the road.

And as more and more people heard about this, all of them looked at Mang with envious eyes for a while, and when they saw the boy in black in front of Mang, without exception, everyone looked at him with envious eyes. It's burning eyes.

"Hey Hey!"

Bai Yan heard a silly smile coming from behind him, turned his head and saw Mang's smug face, holding back a smile but couldn't hold it back, grinning, rubbing his nose or face with his hands, as if he didn't want to Let others see the pride in their hearts.

"General!"

Seeing Bai Yan's eyes, Mang quickly became serious, but in less than a breath, the smile on that cheek became extraordinarily bright.

Looking at Bai Yan and listening to the words of those acquaintances in the past, Mang really couldn't control the joy and pride in his heart. He was more grateful and grateful. Looking at the general in front of him, he naturally knew that if he could get a doctor, he was a general. In the past, they always took the opportunity to give him the reason for promotion.

Otherwise, based on the merits of the Huns in the first battle, at most they can only reach the hairpin. This is still the case of winning three victories in a row, and winning three victories in a row. He is no longer the butcher who knew nothing at the beginning. , it is impossible for him to be promoted to the third rank.

Don't talk about military exploits, just one's birth, identity, and background alone can't.

"General, I don't."

Mang looked at Bai Yan's expressionless face and disappointed eyes, thinking that the general didn't like his smug look, and was a little disappointed in him. Mang felt anxious, worried that the general would have a bad opinion of him, and was about to speak about himself When I stopped laughing.

"Wait until Wu Xia, then go back to see mother, wife and children."

Bai Yan told Mang, his eyes were a little sad at this moment, then he turned his head and walked forward.

Mang froze in place.

Qin Sui, the Tie Ying sharp soldier general on the side, was wearing armor, glanced at Mang beside him, and then followed.

"Brother Yan!!"

On the official road in the distance, Qin officials suddenly let the people blocking the road get out of the way, and under the escort of Qin officials, a man wearing Qin's official uniform appeared in front of Bai Yan.

It was Tai Jing who came.

Seeing Bai Yan, Tai Jing was very kind. When he saw Qin Sui who was in full armor next to Bai Yan, he smiled sarcastically, and then looked at Bai Yan.

"Brother respect!"

Bai Yan and Tai Jing bowed their hands and saluted each other.

Then at Tai Jing's place, Bai Yan knew that just a few days ago, due to the continuous rainstorm, the mountain forest on this road collapsed directly. Now those prisoners have been dispatched to dig for several days, and it is barely enough for people to pass. Still need to wait.

And Tai Jing, apart from being ordered to supervise the work this time, is also coming to preside over the sacrifice.

After all, the collapse of the mountain may also be due to the anger of the mountain god and no worship, which is why such a thing happened.

"I see!"

Bai Yan nodded after listening to Tai Jing's words, but before Bai Yan could say anything, he suddenly saw a man in commoner clothes walking over in a hurry, before the man opened his mouth to speak, whether it was Bai Yan, It was the same man, and they all looked at each other directly.

Bai Yan was full of surprise, while the man's eyes were wide open with an expression of disbelief. When he looked at Qin Sui, who was wearing Qin armor, and Tai Jing politely faced Bai Yan, his expression gradually became shocked.

"It's you!"

Bai Yan didn't expect to see the Huyi that he saw in Baoshi in the past here, and he didn't expect that Huyi would survive the Xinzheng turmoil, but looking at Huyi's nose and whether it was there or not, his appearance was very scary, and he was no longer the same as before. Generally calm and confident.

"Well, brother Yan knows this person?"

Tai Jing was surprised to see that Bai Yan actually knew this Huyi. This Huyi was the one he admired among the many prisoners in the past few days. The second is to help him monitor other prisoners.

Brother Yan! ! !

After Hu Yi heard Tai Jing's words and saw those elite soldiers from the Qin Dynasty in the distance, he guessed Bai Yan's real identity at this moment, his scalp went numb, and his mind went blank.

Jing Mo who I met at Bao's mansion in the past.

It turned out to be the famous Qin general Bai Yan! ! !

thought here.

At this moment, Hu Yi's hands and feet were cold, and he was shocked, followed by a touch of fear. After all, this Qin general Bai Yan knew about his participation in the rebellion.

Without thinking too much, Hu Yi hurriedly glanced around.

"This person is."

Bai Yan had just opened his mouth to speak, but before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw Hu Yi suddenly looking at a Qin official at the side, and suddenly stepped forward and pulled out the Qin sword from his waist, then looked at Bai Yan, shouted angrily kill.

This scene caught everyone around by surprise.

Qin Sui's pupils shrank, Tai Jing's eyes widened and his mouth opened, but he still hadn't reacted.

"die!"

Huyi was about to rush in front of Bai Yan almost instantly. Huyi knew that his identity could no longer be concealed. Once others found out about his participation in the rebellion, he would be doomed. He managed to survive. Right now he is not willing to let it go.

As long as this Qin General Bai Yan is captured, then he can hold Qin General Bai Yan hostage, leave Qin State, and go to Chu State to continue to seek a way out. When Qin and Chu fought, his participation in the rebellion must be enough to make the gentry of Chu State respect him.

Thinking of the good days when he came to Chu State in the future, he would no longer have to eat too much and work hard every day. Looking at the Qin general Bai Yan who was right in front of him, Hu Yi's eyes were full of excitement. Even when he noticed that he had slowly drawn his sword, Hu Yi Yi also didn't believe that with his martial arts, Qin general Bai Yan could defeat him in a sudden attack.

"Don't be presumptuous!"

Meng yelled loudly, looking at Huyi with murderous intent in his eyes, and just when he was about to approach Bai Yan, suddenly, five or six arrows were shot into Huyi's chest and abdomen accurately, and Huyi The movement of raising his hands high up instantly froze, looking at the arrows on his chest, at the iron eagle fighters holding Qin crossbows in the distance, and at "Jing Mo" in front of him.

Hu Yi was not reconciled, and tremblingly wanted to go forward.

Qin Sui had already quietly stood in front of Bai Yan, pulled out his sword neatly, and swung his hands with all his strength.

huh~!

With blood splashing on the ground, Hu Yi's body fell to the ground, a huge hideous wound on his face was continuously bleeding, and countless arrows were stuck in his body.

Holding the sword in one hand, Qin Sui looked at the blood on the sharp sword in his hand, then looked contemptuously at Hu Yi's corpse, turned around, and bowed to Bai Yan, expressing surprise.

"Brother Yan, it's okay!"

At this time, Tai Jing also recovered from his bewildered state. Not to mention other people, he couldn't react to this huge change. , is already a corpse.

At this moment, Tai Jing's back was covered with cold sweat, Tai Jing didn't dare to imagine, if Bai Yan made a mistake because of him, he probably wouldn't want to take this little life.

"Nothing! Thank you, General Qin Sui!"

Bai Yan nodded to Tai Jing, and then saluted Qin Sui.

Looking at Qin Sui, and those iron eagle warriors holding Qin crossbows in the distance, this was the first time Bai Yan felt directly how elite these iron eagle warriors were. , those Iron Eagle warriors had already shot him to death from a distance.

Bai Yan felt a little sour in his heart. The iron eagle warriors had the elite iron helmets, armors, and weapons made by the entire state of Qin, and they were so well-trained. These are the Bai family's iron cavalry and side cavalry. They might fight head-on. It is estimated that it will not fall well.

Now the equipment of Bai's iron cavalry and side cavalry, except for the stirrups and horseshoe nails, the rest are all made by him in private.

I don't know if Bai's iron cavalry, or side cavalry, can train such an elite team in the future.

"This is what the general should do!"

Qin Sui nodded to Bai Yan, then put away Qin Jian, and continued to stay around Bai Yan quietly.

The scene that happened just now has already made the surrounding people, Qin officials, and merchants dumbfounded. They all looked at those Tie Ying warriors with a hint of fear.

"This person is one of the rebels who participated in the rebellion. After meeting Lutong, I will go and see if there are any rebels."

Bai Yan turned his head and said to Tai Jing.

"Okay, thank you!"

Tai Jing hadn't recovered completely yet, so when he heard Bai Yan's words, he was naturally grateful. Tai Jing couldn't imagine, if Bai Yan hadn't discovered this person, would he have done anything in the future? It will implicate him, and even take a sword to kill him like just now.

"General!"

Mang came to Bai Yan's side with a look of embarrassment. Compared to Tai Jing, Mang was the one who blamed himself the most. After all, he was the general's guard, and he just surprised the general. As a guard, Mang felt better.

Right now, Mang no longer has the excited expression just now, and honestly stays with Bai Yan every step of the way.

"nothing!"

Bai Yan looked at Mang, and said softly, so that Mang doesn't need to blame himself too much.

Xianyang, Qin State.

In the palace study, it is still next to the huge map.

Ying Zheng pointed to the location of Wei State on the map.

"Since we have decided to attack Wei, how do we attack Wei? Although Wei is small, it has more than [-] troops and is backed by Qi."

Ying Zheng looked at the place where Wei State was written on the map, and his tone was both dignified and excited. The actions of Chu State now are undoubtedly the best chance for Qin State to destroy Wei State.

As long as the Wei State is destroyed and the Qi State is stabilized in the future, the soldiers of the whole country can be raised immediately to destroy Chu! ! !

The world is close at hand.

The long-cherished wish of the ancestors of Qin kings of all dynasties will be realized in the hands of Ying Zheng in a short time.

"General, if Wei is destroyed, how many troops will the general need?"

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian. For Wang Jian, Ying Zheng naturally attached great importance to him. After all, for hundreds of years, the most powerful opponent of Qin State, Zhao State, was destroyed by Wang Jian, and the army of Yan State and Daidi also It was defeated by Wang Jian.

Therefore, in Qin's plan to attack other countries, Wang Jian has always been the most reliable general in Yingzheng's heart.

"To return to the king, at least 15 troops are needed!"

Wang Jian heard Ying Zheng's words, thought for a while, and said to Ying Zheng.

On the other side of the map, Wei Liao, Li Si, Kui Zhuang, Chang Wenjun, Wang Wan, Li Xin, Meng Tian and others were all listening quietly. When they heard the [-] soldiers and horses in Wang Jian's mouth, they all looked at the map. , The first thing that comes to mind is to remove the [-], and the army led by Wang Ben will contain Wei and Chu in the south.

With an army of 15, plus the army under Wang Ben's command, General Wang Jian was as stable as ever.

"15?"

After hearing Wang Jian's words, Ying Zheng thought for a while and looked at the map.

"Everyone, what do you think?"

Ying Zheng asked softly.

Li Si and Wang Wan looked at each other and fell silent. They are not generals who are good at fighting. They are not good at fighting. Not something they are good at.

Chang Wenjun, Meng Tian and others also fell silent. Although there is Wang Ben's army at the border of Chu and Wei, if there is a change in Chu State, there is no 15 army, and it may not be possible to capture Wei State. .

After all, with the same number of soldiers and horses attacking the city, it would be extremely disadvantageous and the damage would be huge.

Just as everyone was thinking.

Outside the study.

Han Yezhe hurriedly came to the study and walked to Ying Zheng's side.

"Your Majesty, General Bai Yan has returned to Xianyang!"

Han Yezhe reported that all the Tie Ying warriors on this trip had been dispatched to escort Bai Yan back to Xianyang, so the palace was immediately notified of Bai Yan's return to Xianyang.

"Bai Yan almost fell into danger during this trip, so he hurried back and ran all the way, so let him go back to his residence first to recuperate!"

Looking at the map, Ying Zheng nodded when he heard that Bai Yan had returned to Xianyang. Ying Zheng knew that Bai Yan was on his way back to Xianyang a long time ago, so he wasn't too surprised.

Thinking of Bai Yan’s journey from the farthest Yanmen County, to the border of Qin and Chu, he was almost stabbed, but fortunately he was hidden behind, and thinking of the death of Hu Lao, and Bai Yan has been hiding in the border of Qin and Chu, there is nothing wrong with it. Ying Zheng decided to let Bai Yan go to rest first, so there is no need to rush to see him.

Anyway, after deciding to attack Wei, it is nothing more than discussing how many troops to send, how much food and grass to prepare, who will be the main general, what needs to be guarded against, and possible damage after the war.
There are so many ministers right now, enough to discuss.

"promise!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's order, Han Yezhe backed away slowly, and after a few steps, he turned around and walked out of the study.

Li Si, Wei Liao, Wang Jian and the others didn't take it seriously when they heard that Bai Yan had returned. After all, there was no large-scale battle between Qin and Chu before. Both sides restrained themselves and did not participate in the war from beginning to end. There must be nothing wrong with Bai Yan, so it's better to pay homage to Mr. Hu right now.

"Your Majesty, if your Majesty can dispatch the army to destroy Yan in the past to Li Xin, Li Xin can have an army of 13, and he will destroy Wei for your Majesty!"

Li Xin stepped forward suddenly and said to Ying Zheng.

Wang Jian and Meng Tian couldn't help but look at Li Xin's actions. Seeing Li Xin's appearance, both of them felt a little emotional.

The two of them actually knew in their hearts that what Li Xin said was the army to conquer Yan, in fact, what Li Xin wanted most was the Bai clan's iron cavalry under Bai Yan's command. Since the first battle against Yan, Li Xin was leading the brave and skilled Bai clan's cavalry , In the Yan army, it was like no one's land, and even chased and killed the King of Yan all the way, and finally got the head of Yan Dan, and dedicated it to Yingzheng.

It can be said that after experiencing loneliness, that iron cavalry is the beginning of accompanying Li Xin to regain his reputation, and it is also the source of Li Xin's self-confidence all the time.

Right now, because of the Bai family and Bai Yan, it is difficult for Li Xin to ask Bai Yan for that iron cavalry anyway, but he can continue to lead that iron cavalry and make great achievements in the name of defeating Wei.

Inside the study.

Chang Wenjun was planning in his mind, whether he should take advantage of Mi Jing's incident last time to visit Bai Yan to be grateful, and also to inquire about it, to see if he could find out where Bai Yan had been hiding before.

Seeing Li Xin's actions at the side, Kai looked at the silent Chang Wenjun, thought for a while, and slowly stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, General Bai Yan defeated the Xiongnu in the Yunzhong Mountains before. Now the Xiongnu's vitality is seriously injured. It is time to recuperate. Yanmen has no troubles in the north. Besides, there is no need for two elite troops to garrison. Now that General Li Xin is sure of destroying Wei, I think why not mobilize troops from Handan, Yanmen, Taiyuan, and Yan, and let General Li Xin take advantage of the prestige of destroying Yan to try it out. Words are a great thing!"

Kui Zhuang bowed his hands to Ying Zheng and said, seeing Ying Zheng's thoughtful face and silent behavior, he looked at Wei Liao, Li Si and others.

"Your Majesty, my humble minister seconded the proposal!"

Wei Liao thought for a while, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said.

The other ministers actually understood what Wei Liao and Kui Xiang were thinking. Bai Yan was a descendant of the Bai family. His ancestor Bai Qi and King Qin Zhaoxiang had had controversial matters. Now, apart from the iron cavalry, Bai Yan's subordinates have surrendered all of the old Zhao. The country's most elite side cavalry, those under Li Mu's command, are not weaker than any army in Qin State.

If it wasn't for Li Mu's death that caused Bian Qi to have no fighting spirit, even if Qin State wanted to destroy Zhao State, the price would be that Qin State's vitality would be seriously injured.

Under such circumstances, it is extremely inappropriate for the two side riders to be under the command of Bai Yan, who was born in the Bai family, let alone still in Zhao Jiudi, Yanmen!

It’s just that no matter how many ministers remonstrated in the past, Yingzheng ignored it. Now Kai Xiang and Wei Liao obviously wanted to use the reason of destroying Wei to continue to transfer the iron cavalry. One is that the iron cavalry is elite. To be able to go to destroy Wei, and secondly, to destroy Wei, there will be damage. For Qin, it is not bad to say that it is ugly.

"Let the widow think about it!"

Standing by the map, Ying Zheng listened to what Li Xin, Kui Zhuang, and Li Si said, looked at the map, and did not rush to agree.

Wang Ben held an army of [-]. After destroying Zhao and Yan, Wang Jian's prestige in Qin State was second only to his Yingzheng. Li Yao, the great general who commanded the troops in Nanyang, and Lord Changwen was Li Xin's benefactor.

Although Mengshi Mengwu is stationed in the camp in central Guizhou, and Meng Tian also has soldiers and horses under his command, but all these people are gentry!
Although Yanmen County is full of elites, the total number of soldiers and horses is less than 5.

Thinking of Bai Yan's handling of the plunder and sale before, he did not hesitate to thoroughly investigate those entrenched gentry in Zhaodi, and even eliminated those rotten insects in Qin State. The act of rushing to Yanmen day and night.

"Kings."

A voice came from beside him, apparently wanting to speak, but Ying Zheng raised his hand to signal that there was no need to speak.

"This matter will be discussed later!"

Ying Zheng took a deep breath and said softly.

In the study, no matter it was Kai Xiang, Wei Liao, Li Si, Chang Wenjun and others, they all looked at each other in dismay, and after glancing at each other secretly, they all felt a little helpless. They always knew that Ying Zheng favored Bai Yan, but they never thought that Protecting their weaknesses to such an extent, they couldn't help thinking in their hearts that if someone really provoked Bai Qi's affairs in the future, Bai Yan would become the next Li Mu almost instantly and become a disaster for Qin.

Li Xin also looked at Ying Zheng with some confusion. Although he already knew that Ying Zheng valued him very much, he was still unavoidably disappointed.

Although Yandan's head has already been taken back, and he has deterred the world for Qin, Li Xin can still vaguely feel that Bai Yan is always much higher than him in Yingzheng's heart. Li Xin does not understand this , is it really because of the assassination of the envoy of Yan last time, as rumored?
sunset.

In Xianyang City, Bai Yan, escorted by Qin Sui and other Tie Ying warriors, came to the gate of the palace.

After getting off the carriage, Bai Yan slowly came to the palace gate, bowed to the general guarding the palace gate, and asked to see Ying Zheng. After learning that Ying Zheng knew that he was running all the way and asked him to go back to rest first, Bai Yan felt a little nervous. Unexpectedly, but did not refuse.

Bai Yan also wants to go to the Hu Mansion earlier!
What's more, the affairs of the state of Chu along the way have not been written on the bamboo slips, and now Bai Yan really needs to sort it out, and only then can he hand over the harvest of this trip to the state of Chu to Ying Zheng.

Standing in front of the palace gate, Bai Yan saluted gratefully towards the direction of the palace, and after the salute was over, he got up before turning his head and leaving.

Sima Xing, Bai Yu, Hu Jin and others are all in the Hu residence at the moment.
