In the private room.
Lu Qi did not refuse Bai Yan's request. This matter was not easy for him, but it was definitely not difficult.
And Lu Qi also wanted to take the opportunity to express his request.
"I just saw that I am very familiar with the cavalry soldiers. When Lu Qi first came to Yangcheng, Qin and Han were at war, and it was not safe to connect the mountains, rivers and waterways, so I hope that I can come with the food and baggage in the future."
Lu Qi said before.
He saw that Yan was very familiar with the cavalry generals before, so he wanted Yan to introduce him to a cavalry general. When the Qin State transported grain and grass in the future, the goods from his Lu's shop could also follow behind.
The transporters were naturally people from Lu's shop. Lu Qi just hoped that if any bandits robbed Lu's goods, the cavalry officers would help.
This is the reason why I asked the boy to meet.
at the moment.
Lu Qi looked at the four bamboo slips and didn't need to ask Yan to introduce him. In Lu Qi's eyes, Yan was a soldier, but he came to him with a letter of instigation. Obviously, the general behind Yan must have known about him. .
Otherwise, Yan would not have these bamboo slips and come to him.
"Okay! Yanzi will tell you."
Bai Yan did not refuse Lu Qi. Compared with Lu Qi's help, Lu Qi's request was not difficult.
Bai Yan held the glass on the wine table with both hands, and Lu Qi also picked up the wine glass. They looked at each other and smiled, then raised their glasses and drank.
The important things have been said.
Next comes the private matter. After drinking a lot of wine, and Lu Qi drank for the second time today, he didn't feel too wary of Bai Yan.
"Since Feiyan believes in you, then I, Lu Qi, will naturally believe in you. If you know generals or officials in the future, you should introduce them to them more."
Lu Qi's chubby face was also very red, and he was vomiting bitterness.
Looking at Bai Yan, he might be someone of the same age, or maybe Bai Yan still has Feiyan's jade pendant. Lu Qi is not very old, so his character is naturally not as deep as that of an adult.
Lu Qi also told Bai Yan at this time that he came to Yangcheng this time because he also wanted to achieve something.
Although the Lu family has a wide network of contacts and travels between Qin and Qi, as a descendant of the Lu family, Lu Qi is also under great pressure. Not to mention the uncles and children of his father's generation, Lu Qi himself has four Brother, six sisters.
The children of the Lu family will be tested before they reach adulthood. After the children of the Lu family leave the family, they go to other places to do business. Those who are capable will naturally inherit more Lu family shops in the future, and the higher their status in the clan will be. .
"No wonder you came to Yangcheng despite the war."
At this time, Bai Yan was not polite to Lu Qi, and his words were not as strange as at first.
Bai Yan looked at Lu Qi while eating meat.
"Then what you mean is that the more Lu's shops are here, the better for you."
Bai Yan asked.
Lu Qi chuckled after listening to Bai Yan's words.
The two drank until late at night before saying goodbye and leaving.
The second day.
"Yan, why do you feel so absent-minded today?"
Outside Yangcheng, Chai looked at Bai Yan and asked curiously.
He felt that Bai Yan had been a little uneasy throughout the whole day.
"I always feel like I've forgotten something!"
Bai Yan looked at Chai and explained.
According to the time, Bai Yu has led the cavalry soldiers to Nanyang. The transportation of grain, grass and baggage is relatively slow, so we should be back today. Korean soldiers in other places may raid the grain and grass within the next two days.
But Bai Yan always felt that something was wrong, as if he had forgotten something.
"Can not remember!"
Bai Yan looked at Chai's confused look and said with a smile.
Chai looked at Bai Yan with a smile on his face.
"It doesn't matter. If you are worried about General Bai Yu, then there is no need. General Bai Yu has nearly 8,000 cavalry beside him. Those Korean soldiers will not be General Bai Yu's opponent."
Chai comforted Bai Yan, feeling that maybe Bai Yan was worried about General Bai Yu's safety.
"Um!"
Bai Yan nodded. Bai Yu led the cavalry army, and the Korean soldiers in other places could not succeed so easily. After all, these cavalry soldiers followed Bai Yu and often fought with the Zhao cavalry. They were all the best among the cavalry.
As long as there are these cavalry troops escorting the grain and grass, there will be no problem with the grain, grass and baggage.
far away.
Suddenly a Qin army of more than a thousand people appeared in Bai Yan's sight.
Bai Yan and Chai turned to look.
"How come there is a Qin army?"
Bai Yan and Chai both looked puzzled, why would the Qin army appear here at this time.
On the tower of Yangcheng City, a Qin soldier also looked puzzled and quickly turned around to report.
"Let's go and ask!"
Chai said.
General Teng Lao was leading the Qin army to besiege Xincheng. Why did he send a Qin army to Yangcheng at this time? Could it be that they are worried about the food and supplies?
Bai Yan nodded, then followed Chai and rode towards the Qin army.
"stop!"
The general of the Qin army rode a war horse, looked at Bai Yan and Chai galloping towards here in the distance, and raised his hand to give an order.
Following the orders of the generals of the Qin Army, more than a thousand Qin soldiers behind them stopped and stood on the spot holding weapons and Qin flags.
"Why are you here?"
Chai rode a war horse and came to the Qin army general, reined in the horse's rope and asked.
While talking, Chai took out a wooden sign from his arms to identify the general.
"The general ordered me to lead the soldiers to Yangcheng and accompany General Bai Yu to escort the grain and grass."
General Qin said, then he took out the wooden sign from his arms and handed it to Chai.
Chai listened to the general's words, looked at the identity and portrait on the wooden sign, carefully looked at the general in front of him, and then nodded.
Bai Yan rode his horse and looked at the Qin soldiers in front of him. Although he did not look at the wooden sign, the general knew Bai Yu, so there should be no problem with his identity. Perhaps General Teng felt that this time the food and grass supplies were related to the success or failure of destroying Han, so he was worried and sent more troops to Bai Yu.
"what's your name?"
Bai Yan rode his horse and slowly stepped forward, came to a Qin soldier holding a long spear, and asked, looking at the Qin armor on the soldier's body.
This scene made Chai and the Qin army general hear the sound and look around.
Bai Yan took out his wooden sign from his arms.
"My name is Gui!"
Qin Zu saw Bai Yan's wooden sign, which was a doctor, and said with a look of fear. Then he took out the wooden sign from his arms and gave it to Bai Yan.
Bai Yan took the wooden sign and saw that the name on it was indeed Gui, and then looked at the portrait on the wooden sign.
"What's the problem?"
The general of the Qin army came over on horseback, looked at Bai Yan and asked.
Chai also came over on horseback at this time.
"No, I'm just curious. His Qin armor seems to be made from two sets."
Bai Yan's eyes were slightly red. He looked at the leather armor on the soldier's body and returned the wooden sign to the soldier. He seemed to feel his lips were dry, so he pursed his lips and murmured with a smile.
"What's wrong?"
Chai came to Bai Yan at this time.
"It's okay, let's go back to the city!"
Bai Yan smiled and shook his head.
"Why are you so absent-minded today? You should go back to the mansion and have a good rest. Don't practice riding today."
Chai said with concern.
"Okay~! Today, I won't practice riding!"
Bai Yan nodded, as if he was feeling unwell and breathing rapidly.
After Chai and the general handed over, he took Bai Yan and rushed towards Yangcheng.
Bai Yan rode his horse and looked at the city gate in the distance, his breathing becoming more rapid. His eyes sparkled with tears.
"Yan, this armor of yours is too beautiful."
"Yan, you don't want this armor, why don't you give it to me?"
"Yan, I don't know how to do it, can you help me do it? I also want a set of such beautiful Qin armor."
"Yan, you said that when I come home, I will be a cavalry soldier. How majestic that will be."
At the city gate.
Just as Chai was about to say something to Bai Yan, he suddenly turned around and saw Bai Yan looking absent-minded, with red eyes and tears on his face.
"Yan, what's wrong with you?"
Chai asked doubtfully and uneasily, he didn't understand why Bai Yan was acting like this suddenly.
