Qin Gong

Chapter 73 Departure, Leaving Yangcheng
It's not yet dawn.

In Yangcheng's mansion, Bai Yan walked to the package and took off his clothes.The several wounds on the arms, back, and abdomen looked very hideous.

Taking out his mended cloth from the package, Bai Yan put the cloth on his body, looked at the armor and the wooden plaque next to the package, turned around and came to a wooden frame where the armor was hung.

The armor and Qin Jian hadn't been washed, but the bloodstains were still there.

Bai Yan took off the armor and put it on himself, then picked up Qin Jian, opened the door, watched the moonlight gradually recede, and walked towards the outside of the mansion.

on the street.

Some common people who get up early and work late at night have also started to set up stalls on the roadside.Obviously, the war during this period of time forced the common people to pick a safer time to make a living.

Bai Yan looked at those common people, and remembered that his grandmother once said that long ago, the common people used "the day and the middle of the day" as their market. Because they didn't know the time, they chose the hottest and most recognizable day and the middle of the day to exchange with each other in the city. needed.

With the increasing number of people, merchants from various countries began to travel to each other in several countries, and later there were "morning markets" and "evening markets".

The morning market, the market from time to time, is dominated by merchants.The evening market, the city at sunset, is dominated by traffickers and women, and uncles and aunts in Linzi, Qi State, are one of them.

Bai Yan came to a shop selling millet cakes.

Millet cake is said to have originated from Wen Zhong. In the past, when King Wu defeated Zhou, King Zhou sent Taishi Wen Zhong to resist the army of King Wu, and he used a kind of cake as dry food.Bai Yan didn't know if this was true.

Anyway, after hundreds of years, the cakes have been passed down to this time, and they are already very fragrant.

In terms of deliciousness, everyone in the world says that Qibing is the best in the Seven Kingdoms.

next to the street.

When the shop peddler saw Bai Yan coming to the shop, there was a look of fear in his eyes, especially when he saw that the armor on Bai Yan's body was still bloodstained.It wasn't until Bai Yan finished buying the millet cakes and left that he breathed a sigh of relief.

After Bai Yan had eaten and came to the camp in the city, he saw some cavalry soldiers eating breakfast, and some soldiers who had finished breakfast were already checking Qin crossbows and arrows beside their horses, and more than a dozen Qin officials were counting Grain supplies.

Bai Yan's arrival caused a lot of iron cavalry officers to look over him.

All the iron cavalry officers and soldiers knew in their hearts that the Han soldiers would not let them send the food and grass to the army of the Qin State like this, and a fierce battle would be inevitable today.

Chai was giving instructions to several cavalry generals, and was a little surprised to see Yan.He didn't expect Bai Yan to come to Daying so early.

"Yan! When the sun rises, you can set off!"

Chai said to Bai Yan.

"I can't wait to escort the food and grass today."

Bai Yan said softly.

Chai and the cavalry generals were stunned, and looked at Bai Yan suspiciously.

When the cavalry officers and soldiers around heard Bai Yan's words, they also looked puzzled.

Outside Yangcheng.

At the camp, tens of thousands of soldiers were still eating breakfast.At this moment, they suddenly heard the roar of horseshoes in Yangcheng.

All the soldiers were a little puzzled, the cavalry army should be waiting for them in the city, why did they leave the city at this time?

Puzzled, one of the soldiers looked towards Yangcheng one after another, and after a while, he saw countless figures of cavalry soldiers riding out from the city.

"How did they get out?"

"Look, they don't seem to be coming here!"

"How to go in that direction, are they going there?"

A soldier with a questioning expression on his face watched the cavalry army leave the city, and then they all rushed in another direction.

Look at the appearance of the cavalry army.It seems that they are not ready to wait for them!One of the guards stood up and looked at each other in confusion.Logically, shouldn't the cavalry army be with them?Now that the cavalry army is leaving, who will protect the food and supplies?What if the Han soldiers came to raid the grain and grass again?
"Could it be that they are going to revenge?"

Among the countless pawns, I don't know which pawn was the first to murmur.And with the appearance of these words, more and more pawns looked at the back of the cavalry army going away, and the words that the boy said yesterday suddenly appeared in their minds.

What happened yesterday will be repaid with blood!

Thinking of this, all the soldiers quietly widened their eyes, looking at the army of iron cavalry going far away, they all vaguely guessed why those cavalry didn't come with them!
A place ten miles outside Yangcheng.

"Wake up!"

Beside a boulder on the top of a mountain, a man patted another sleeping man with a sleepy face.

Both of them were ordered to monitor Qin's food and supplies. Last night, they slept at the foot of the mountain for fear of being discovered, so they dared not even start a fire.To guard against wild beasts in the mountains, they dared not sleep at night, and they did not come to the top of the mountain until dawn, where they slept for a while.

"Ok?"

The man curled up under the boulder opened his eyes tiredly, and then saw that it was already dawn, and was about to ask.

suddenly.

There was the sound of roaring iron hooves in the distance. Judging from the sound, there were at least thousands of them.

When the two men heard the sound, they looked at each other, and their tiredness disappeared immediately. They hurriedly hid beside the boulder, looking at the direction of Yangcheng in the distance.

Soon, the two men saw densely packed Qin cavalry suddenly appearing at the foot of the mountain in the distance, the number of which was as many as several thousand.

"Qin Jun is leaving now?"

A man looked at the army of iron cavalry carrying a Qin flag, and said, his words were full of doubts, but they knew that there was only one iron cavalry of the Qin State in Yangcheng, and the food and supplies of the State of Qin were exactly that army. Qin Guo cavalry escorted.

And this iron cavalry should be the Qin State iron cavalry in Yangcheng.

"Qin Jun has set off, I'll go back and report right now!"

After a man finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave.

"No, no, no!"

Another man stopped the road and looked at the cavalry army at the foot of the mountain in the distance.He found something was wrong.

Because looking at the marching speed of the iron cavalry army, the food, grass and supplies could not keep up.

"They don't seem to be escorting food and grass."

The man murmured, his face full of doubts.

And the man who was about to leave before seemed to have noticed something was wrong.

Boom boom~! ! !

Listening to the sound of iron hooves, the two men continued to squat behind the boulder, observing the army of iron cavalry in the distance.

until a moment later.The two men suddenly saw that after Yangcheng's cavalry army passed by their foot of the mountain, at a fork in the distance, the cavalry in the front turned their heads first and went straight north!

"The new city is obviously on the east side! Why did they go north, and they went north again."

A man murmured instinctively, then immediately thought of something, his pupils shrank, and he looked at the other man full of fear.

And the other man looked at him with wide eyes just like him.

The two of them suddenly thought that that road could lead directly to their Han Zu camp. Right now, the Han Zu from Guangwu, Wanfeng, and Xingyang are all on standby at the camp.

If it is this cavalry, it is to raid the camp.
"It shouldn't be. How could the Qin army know the location of our camp, and the Qin army doesn't know how many soldiers there are in our Han army. How dare they go!"

A man murmured softly, comforting himself.

But seeing that all the Qin cavalry dared to go to the north road, for some reason, the man still felt a little panicked.

　Dear friends, I had an operation yesterday, and today I am out of shape. Today I am owed an update, and I will double it on Tuesday.Thank you so much readers.
