Yangcheng.
"This kid didn't tell the truth at all!"
Bai Yu said angrily.
Only then did Bai Yu wake up, but he had been thinking about it from day to night.
Bai Yu has always wondered why he had never heard of Bai Yan's swordsmanship being so strong and his mentor must be a famous swordsman.
Still a hermit!
I really think my mentor is Gui Guzi!
"This boy."
Bai Yu shook his head. Although he was also very curious, since Bai Yan didn't want to talk, it was natural for him not to ask more questions. But he guessed that the reason why Bai Yan didn't say anything was that the swordsman had many enemies.
It is very likely that some of them are in Qin.
Inside the mansion.
Bai Yan returned to the room at this moment, washed himself, then lay on the bed, holding a bamboo slip carving knife, and continued to carve bamboo slips.
Now he is in Qin State, not with his family. As for his family, Tian Feiyan still needs to take more care of him in Linzi.
As for the bamboo slips, he was not worried.
Ministers from various countries all exchanged letters directly, and even more so, there was no taboo at all over drinking and chatting together. Compared with this bamboo slip, which has no effect at all, it is nothing worth mentioning. No one cares.
Not to mention that after meeting Lu Qi, he knew that the Lu behind the jade pendant was anything but ordinary. There is no need to worry that the bamboo slips will be known to others after they are handed over to Lu.
Although he didn't know Lu Qi very well, he trusted Tian Feiyan very much.
Most of the time, the eyes don’t deceive.
Thinking of the way Tian Feiyan looked at him by the river outside Linzi City, and the way Tian Feiyan took the jade pendant from his clothes, Bai Yan couldn't help but smile.
“I really don’t know what year or month it will be when I see you next time!”
Bai Yan took out the jade pendant and chuckled softly.
Next time they meet, if Tian Feiyan is married, he will personally return the jade pendant to Tian Feiyan.
"Don't get married so early!"
Bai Yan murmured.
In the next three days, Bai Yan has been following Chai to learn riding skills.
Outside Yangcheng.
Bai Yan was riding a war horse, holding the horse's belly between his legs, arching his back, holding a crossbow in both hands and firing arrows at the standing tree in the distance.
Accompanied by the sound of a crossbow piercing the air, the arrow passed by the standing tree without any surprise.
See this.
Bai Yan was not surprised. Fortunately, the crossbow he was riding on horseback was getting closer to the standing tree day by day. Sometimes if he was lucky, the arrow could hit it.
At this time.
"Bai Yan, General Bai Yu wants you to go to the mansion immediately."
A cavalry soldier rode up to Bai Yan and said to Bai Yan.
"good!"
Bai Yan nodded.
"Would you like to ride there?"
Chai looked at Bai Yan coming over, leading two war horses, and asked with a smile.
In the past few days, not to mention other soldiers, even he especially liked getting along with Bai Yan. Bai Yan was the first nobleman he met who had no airs about him.
“No, it’s so nice to walk!!”
Bai Yan waved his hands quickly.
These days, he can dream about being on horseback. What he likes most right now is to be able to walk down to earth.
After a while.
In Yangcheng, Bai Yan entered the mansion and then came to the study to see Bai Yu.
Bai Yan was a little curious as to why Bai Yu was looking for him at this time.
"have a look!"
Bai Yu said, and then handed a wooden sign to Bai Yan.
After Bai Yan took the wooden sign, he took a look, and then his expression was full of surprise.
"Doctor? How can I be promoted to doctor?"
Bai Yan asked, his credit should only be extended to the end.
But on the wooden sign, next to his name, it was clearly written "Doctor".
Bai Yan couldn't understand and could only look at Bai Yu.
"Why do you think you became a doctor?"
Bai Yu asked with a smile, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.
"Kings?"
Bai Yan murmured. After listening to Bai Yu's words, he thought for a while and could only think of the current Qin King Ying Zheng. In the entire Qin Kingdom, there was only one Qin King Ying Zheng who could give people an exceptional promotion.
"More importantly, the king knows that you are Bai!"
Bai Yu said with a smile: "Today is the time to employ people. In the heart of the king, I, the Bai family, are no worse than the Meng family and the Li family. I said last time that I, at least, will not be replaced."
Bai Yu was a little proud when he said this.
Although the Bai family is gradually declining and is not as good as the Li family and the Meng family, in the heart of the current king, the Bai family has never been underestimated.
Seeing Bai Yan's unexpected look, Bai Yu thought of something and gradually put away his smile.
"You didn't have a title when you joined the army, and you are not as good as Li Xin, Meng Tian and others. Don't think that because you are a descendant of the Bai family, things will end after the king gives you a title. On the contrary, this is also an observation of you. It is no exaggeration to say that it can even affect whether you can be reused in Qin in the future."
Bai Yu's expression was particularly serious at the moment, but when he talked about Li Xin and others, he also felt a little helpless.
Li Xin and Meng Tian both inherited their titles, so the number of troops they led at the beginning far exceeded Bai Yan's. And there’s plenty of time to prepare. Looking back at Bai Yan, Qin was about to destroy Han. Not only could Bai Yan not be able to lead many troops because of his title, but he also had no choice about the number of enemies.
Bai Yan looked at Bai Yu's serious expression, and it was obvious that he was not joking.
"No wonder General Teng asked me if I had studied military books before."
Bai Yan said with a bitter smile.
According to Bai Yu's words, if he was defeated just after being promoted, he would not only be demoted, but also lose the trust of Xianyang. By then, it is estimated that Bai's surname will not be used, and there will be no need to mention the title of Qing. Greetings!
But think about it. Even the children of the noble clan will not be reused in Qin if they are not capable.
"Don't worry, kid, you are not as good as the Li family or the Meng family by birth, but your swordsmanship is at least better than theirs. Besides, I'm here."
Bai Yu looked at Bai Yan's appearance and comforted him.
He knew that even if Bai Yan had the surname Bai, he could not compare with the Meng family and the Li family, but that did not mean that Bai Yan would not have the opportunity to enter the Qin court with his own abilities.
As long as Bai Yan can lead the soldiers and prove his ability, he will be promoted to the Qin court.
Li Xin was defeated by Li Mu and was only demoted but not convicted. Moreover, he was sure that Li Xin, as one of the young generals of the Qin State, would definitely be reused in the future.
This is the benefit of entering the Qin court.
Bai Yan also has a chance, but it will be several times harder and more dangerous than Li Xin and others.
Because Bai Yan in front of me has the surname Bai!
In the study room.
Bai Yan was about to ask something more, but he didn't speak yet.
At this time, a cavalry soldier hurried in.
"General, the food and supplies have arrived in Nanyang."
The cavalry officer handed the bamboo slip to Bai Yu.
Bai Yu took the bamboo slip, nodded after reading it, and turned to give instructions to Bai Yan.
"You haven't mastered your riding skills yet, so I won't take you to escort the food and baggage this time. I will leave three thousand cavalry in Yangcheng. You can just practice your riding skills without any worries. Remember, don't be in a hurry to perform meritorious deeds. If the enemy makes a surprise attack Yangcheng, act according to the opportunity."
Bai Yu said.
Bai Yu is still very relieved about Bai Yan. Bai Yan is not only good at swordsmanship, but most importantly, his temperament is not that impetuous.
This time, in addition to raiding the food and baggage supplies, some of the Han soldiers might also attack Yangcheng, but the possibility was very small, and with Bai Yan in Yangcheng, he could feel at ease.
After all, the soldiers all knew that Bai Yan was brave in killing enemies and was a descendant of his Bai family, so the enemy's attack would not shake the morale of the troops.
Bai Yan nodded and did not refuse.
He had just been promoted, and the next battle was crucial. Bai Yan did not want to escort the food and baggage, and was forced to fight.
Seeing that Bai Yu was busy again, Bai Yan resigned first.
Leave the mansion.
Bai Yan was walking on the street, wearing Qin armor and Qin sword, walking slowly, looking at the people of Yangcheng walking along the way.
He knew that as General Teng was attacking the new city and the new city was about to be broken, Han soldiers would never let the Qin State directly attack Xinzheng and destroy South Korea.
Attack the grain and baggage by surprise, or unite with Chu and Zhao.
If it was the former, was it a sneak attack on the way from Nanyang to Yangcheng, or a sneak attack on the way from Yangcheng to Xincheng.
If it's the latter, then his first battle after becoming a doctor will be a fierce battle.
Bai Yan was a little helpless. His biggest trump card right now was what the dead soul told him before, but it would also take some time.
"Drive~! Get out of the way!!"
Bai Yan suddenly heard the roar of iron hoofs in the distance. When he looked back, he saw countless iron knights rushing towards him. Apparently he had received an order and was preparing to go to Nanyang to escort the food, grass and baggage.
Seeing that the cavalry army was ready to come.
Bai Yan also moved out of the way to let the cavalry soldiers pass.
on the street.
Many cavalry officers also spotted Bai Yan on the road. When they passed by Bai Yan, they all showed teasing smiles.
When Bai Yan saw this, he laughed angrily. After spending a few days together, he could feel that the cavalry soldiers were very close to him. He naturally understood what the smiles of those soldiers meant.
Under a restaurant.
Lu Qi and two nobles were preparing to go into a restaurant to drink when they saw Yan in the distance.
Lu Qi was very surprised when he saw that Yan seemed to be familiar with the cavalry soldiers. He did not expect that Yan, as an ordinary Qin soldier, was very familiar with the cavalry soldiers.
Lu Qi's eyes lit up when he thought of something.
When Bai Yan saw Lu Qi, the corners of his mouth slowly rose.
