Shaojing Mountain.
Boom boom boom~!
Accompanied by the roar of the cavalry army, several Qin soldiers stood up one after another escorting a man in cloth on the road to Shaojing Mountain.
After a while.
Seeing the mighty cavalry army pouring out from the mountain road in the distance like a torrent, and seeing more and more cavalry soldiers, a Qin soldier stepped forward.
Bai Yan rode his war horse and led the soldiers to a slow stop. He felt relieved after seeing that the surrounding canyon was not suitable for an ambush.
"Doctor, on the order of General Sima, we brought people here."
The leader of Qin soldiers raised his hands to Bai Yan and said.
Qin soldiers looked at Bai Yan with admiration. He was a Han soldier stationed in Yangcheng before, so he knew very well that after Bai Yu was assassinated and injured, it was Doctor Bai who was in danger and was ordered to lead the cavalry to escort the food and baggage.
And as one of the injured cavalry soldiers returned to Yangcheng.
Within Yangcheng, not to mention their soldiers, but also the common people and nobles in the city have heard that the young Doctor Bai led the cavalry army to switch from offense to defense, annihilating the enemy troops, and marching north to seize the city.
When he was in Yangcheng before, there was a fat nobleman who wanted to bribe him to let him know when Doctor Bai returned to Yangcheng.
The man was still shameless and said that he was Lu's family and that he wanted to visit Dr. Bai and get acquainted with him.
At that time, he rejected the nobleman.
"Thank you!"
When Bai Yan heard this, he got off his horse and came to Qin Zu with his hands in gratitude. He did not show any slight to Qin Zu because of his identity or status.
"Don't dare, doctor, this is the bamboo slip that General Sima ordered me to bring."
Qin Zu handed a scroll of bamboo slips to Bai Yan. Seeing Doctor Bai treat him so politely, he felt a little uneasy.
After all, Doctor Bai in front of him is the man who leads the army of cavalry behind him. Now he is so polite to one of his soldiers. I'm afraid no one else would believe him if he told him back home.
When Bai Yan heard that the bamboo slip belonged to General Sima Xing, he quickly took it and opened it slowly.
After reading it, Bai Yan put away the bamboo slips and looked at the panicked man.
"Where is his body?"
Bai Yan asked softly.
"Doctor, we have asked him to find him."
Before the man could speak, Qin Zu spoke, and then pointed to the shade of a tree at the foot of a mountain in the distance.
"Doctor, just now, he couldn't bear it"
Qin Zu watched Bai Yan turn around and prepare to leave, and quickly spoke, but he did not dare to finish the sentence.
The body had been abandoned here for ten days.
The person just now was carried up while vomiting.
Bai Yan listened to Qin Zu's words and shook his head. Without saying anything, he took the cloth that had been prepared in Wanfeng from the cavalry soldiers and walked towards the shade of the tree.
Chai looked at the surrounding mountaintops warily.
Yanmao led several cavalry soldiers and followed Bai Yan to protect Bai Yan's safety.
Several Qin soldiers also pressed down on the man and followed behind.
However, whether it was Yanmao, several cavalry officers, or the Qin soldiers, they smelled a pungent smell just ten steps closer to the shade of the tree. The closer they got, the stronger the smell became.
Bai Yan came to the shade of the tree, squatted down, looked at Gui's body, his eyes were a little red.
When he was in Lantian, it was Gui who took him to the camp. That was the first time he saw Gui.
Looking at Gui's body now.
Thinking of everything he had with Gui, thinking that Gui's parents were still waiting for him to go back, thinking that Gui had not yet seen the unmarried woman that his parents had found for him.
Bai Yan's eyes turned red as he wrapped Gui's body in cloth.
He had buried many rotting corpses before, but he never imagined that one day, the rotting corpses would be one of his few friends.
"Gui, I'm here to take you back."
Bai Yan murmured softly.
New Town.
At this moment, there are black flags with the word Qin on the walls of the new city, as if to tell the world that the new city is the city of Qin.
In the city road, a Qin soldier held a long sword and looked at the countless teams of guards in the distance, pushing wooden carts carrying grain and baggage. The team stretched from a distance to the city gate.
"Watch out!"
"Be careful!!"
At the city gate, a soldier named Qin was giving instructions.
Looking at the guard team escorting the food and baggage in front of them, and the Qin soldiers guarding the city gate, they were full of doubts.
"Why didn't you see the Qin cavalry escorting the food and baggage?"
"Yeah, I only saw the infantry, but never the cavalry in Yangcheng!"
A Qin soldier looked at the supplies of food and grass in front of him and whispered.
At this moment.
A Qin army general in his thirties came to the city gate, followed by several cronies.
The general of the Qin army looked at the team escorting the food and baggage in front of him, but he did not see the cavalry army or General Bai Yu, so he turned his head casually and looked at a guard.
"Why don't you see General Bai Yu?"
The Qin army general asked.
Several trusted soldiers behind the Qin army general also looked at each other with doubtful expressions.
"Report to the general that when they were carrying millet, the Korean army raided the grain and grass, and some Korean soldiers even smeared poison on their swords. I heard that General Bai Yu was injured while protecting the grain and grass,"
The watchman spoke to the general.
After being raided by the Korean army that night, he saw with his own eyes many cavalry soldiers and infantry who were all poisoned. Later, he heard someone say that General Bai Yu was stabbed by Korean soldiers when he saw him that night.
"What?"
After hearing what Geng Soldier said, not to mention this Qin Army general, but also the trusted soldiers behind him and the other Qin soldiers at the city gate, their eyes widened with shock.
Previously, the Korean army was raiding grain and grass, and even smeared poison on their swords!
General Bai Yu was stabbed while protecting food and grass.
"The cavalry army is in Yangcheng now?"
The general of the Qin army suddenly thought of something in his panic.
"Back to the general, the day after General Bai Yu was injured, the cavalry army left Yangcheng first and did not come to the new city with us."
Gengzu said.
Remembering that day before dawn, the cavalry army left Yangcheng. He heard that they were going for revenge, but he did not dare to say this in front of the general in front of him.
"You will take care of the food, grass and baggage, and I will report to General Teng!"
The general of the Qin army had a bad premonition when he heard Geng's words. He had to tell General Teng the news.
Several trusted soldiers accepted the order.
Just after the Qin army generals left for a while.
Several cronies were still discussing the assassination and poisoning of General Bai Yu.
Suddenly, the roar of the cavalry army seemed to be heard from the distant mountains.
Small at first, but then more and more clear.
Boom boom boom~! ! !
"It's a cavalry!"
"Cavalry!"
A Qin soldier on the tower, a Qin soldier below the tower, and all the watchmen turned their heads to look when they heard the sound of iron hoofbeats in the distance.
Then they saw it.
In the direction where the food and grass trains were coming, an army of iron cavalry appeared in their eyes, and the unique black flag of the Qin State was very conspicuous.
"It's Qin's cavalry!"
"Qin Cavalry!"
A Qin soldier and a soldier all exclaimed, looking at the large Qin cavalry in the distance, rushing towards the new city in a mighty manner.
Inside the city.
In a mansion, General Teng listened to the general's report and nodded.
Looking at the general's leaving figure, General Teng frowned slightly, knowing in his heart that Bai Yu was poisoned and could no longer hide it.
But why did the cavalry army under Bai Yu suddenly leave Yangcheng? Where are you now?
In the study room.
Hu Jin and other Qin generals also frowned slightly at this moment.
