Chapter 135: Attacked
In the middle of summer, if the male hormone secretion is excessive, the old man is fanatical and restless.
More than 100 guards in the royal city have been running around for a long time, even if they are all elites in the army, they all feel a little prostration at this time.
With the exception of a few guards, the vast majority stayed in the shade of the trees, fanning themselves with leaves, or closing their eyes like dead dogs.
"General, this is the favorite pastry of the young man."
"Gongzi knew that the general was tired from marching, so he specially ordered me to send it to the general, and I hope that the general will not postpone it."
Zhao Yan looked at the delicate pastries in the food box, but he didn't have any appetite.
"I understand the kindness of my son."
"It's just that now that the soldiers are outside, I should share the weal and woe with the soldiers, if I give up the soldiers and enjoy the delicious food alone, won't it make the robe feel cold?"
"Please also ask Mr. to take back the pastries, and by the way, thank Childe on my behalf."
"By the way, tell my son that I will take this opportunity to rest, and after half an hour, we will continue to march until nightfall."
"If you don't take the opportunity to rest, I'm afraid the rest of the journey will be difficult."
The pastry was rejected, and Guo Kai's face was a little unsightly.
Fortunately, Guo Kaicheng's mansion was extremely deep, even if he was extremely unhappy in his heart, thinking that Zhao Yan didn't know what to do, he quickly restrained the emotions on his face, and instead brought a bright smile.
"The general treats himself strictly, he is really the talent of the pillars of Zhao Guo, and I am presumptuous."
"Thank you for the general's reminder, I will definitely tell my son, hurry up and have a good rest."
Seeing Guo Kai leave, Zhao Gan's eyes were a little complicated.
He turned his head to look at Zhao Zheng's car not far away, and after hesitating for a while, he finally walked there.
"I've seen the general!"
Border City sat on the top of the car with a sword, and when he saw Zhao Yan approaching, he bowed his head and saluted, but did not get up.
Zhao Yan also knows that heroes like Border City are full of arrogance in their hearts and do not put their official position in their eyes.
He didn't think too much about it, and said loudly: "How is the little boy's health?" ”
Bian Cheng turned his head to look at the car curtain, and finally showed a little soft color on his face: "The little boy was born not long ago, and the weather is very hot, so I have to travel a long way." ”
"Therefore, even if the nurse and the imperial doctor accompany them, they are a little uncomfortable and often cry."
Hearing this, Zhao Yan sighed slightly.
He also knew that at this time, he had to take Zhao Zheng to Handan, which was not so authentic.
It's a pity that the military order is like a mountain, and Zhao Gan, as a close minister of King Zhao, is also a disciple of the clan, so he naturally knows the stakes.
Don't look at King Zhao, who is already old and in good health, he knows all kinds of things in Zhao Kingdom.
Now that Zhao Jia's prestige is getting heavier and heavier, and he is even more of a land where he supports troops to occupy Shenqi, King Zhao will have some thoughts in his heart.
And in King Zhao's heart, even if Zhao Jia is his eldest grandson, he is still not as good as his own son Zhao Yan.
Although today's Zhao Yan is not as virtuous as Zhao Jia, he is also cautious, and he is extremely filial to King Zhao, and there is no big mistake.
Regarding the discord between Zhao Yan and Zhao Jia, King Zhao is also very clear in his heart,
In King Zhao's view, Zhao Yan is certainly wrong, but Zhao Jia, as a son of man, has a gap with his father, and the fault is greater than Zhao Jia.
When the son fights with the father, he naturally occupies a disadvantage.
Ordered Zhao Gen to take Zhao Zheng into Handan, although King Zhao wanted to see his great-grandson, King Zhao did not want to help his son restrain Zhao Jia, so as not to cause chaos within the royal family a hundred years later.
Zhao Gen fought side by side with Zhao Jia as early as in Shanyi, although the two did not have much intersection, but for Zhao Jia's brother, Zhao Gen admired him from the bottom of his heart.
Zhao Jian also felt that if Zhao Jia inherited the throne, it might make Zhao State better.
It's a pity that bypassing his son and passing the throne directly to his grandson has basically never happened, and it is not in line with the ethics of the Gangchang, which is a big taboo.
Even if Zhu Yuanzhang did so in the Ming Dynasty in the future, the throne was finally obtained by Zhu Di.
"I only hope that Zhao Guo will not have civil strife."
Zhao Yan sighed slightly, but after all, he didn't open the curtain to look at Zhao Zheng, turned around and walked into the distance.
The weather was so hot that the soldiers could not bear it, and many of them secretly unfastened their armor.
Those soldiers who had been cautiously guarded, after patrolling for a long time and not finding any enemies, also began to relax their vigilance.
Even Zhao Yan himself leaned against the big tree and squinted groggily for a while.
Although he was vigilant, after all, this was the territory of Zhao State, and he was accompanied by more than 100 of the most elite guards of the royal city, and even if the ordinary mountain mob came with three or five hundred people, he would not want to get a favor.
No one noticed that a group of thieves appeared in Hanoi and quietly approached under the cover of aquatic plants and trees.
"Puff puff!"
Suddenly, several guards of the royal city who untied their armor and took a nap felt a pain in their chests, and they were actually pierced through their bodies by sudden arrows and killed on the spot.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack, enemy attack!"
Only one of the luckier ones, who was lucky enough to avoid the vital point, still had the strength to shout loudly.
"Poof!"
Unfortunately, in the next moment, the arrow pierced the man's throat with a strong sound of breaking through the air.
"Enemy attack, prepare for battle!"
"Enemy attack, prepare for battle!"
"Enemy attack, prepare for battle!"
Zhao Yan, who was in a daze, was awakened by the shouting, sat up reflexively, looked at the enemy who was rushing towards this side, and was immediately shocked and shouted loudly.
The people who swarmed in here were all in rags, and many of them were still wearing tattered Qin army armor.
At the front, Zhao Yan actually saw a broken banner of the Qin army.
"This is the rout of the Qin State!"
Zhao Gan's face became more and more solemn, he pulled out the sword in his waist, and immediately commanded his soldiers to meet the enemy.
"Kill!"
At the same time, the leader of the thief with a masked face, with a thick Guanzhong accent, took the lead in killing him.
"Divide twenty people to protect the little boy and retreat first, and the rest will follow me to kill the enemy!"
Zhao Yan is also a fierce general, and after letting his cronies take twenty people to protect Zhao Zheng, he immediately took his subordinates who got up in a hurry and killed the thief at the head.
This sudden change also made Zhao Qian and Guo Kai panic.
They looked at the fierce battle in front of them, and then looked at Zhao Zheng, who was escorted away by more than 30 people, and without the slightest hesitation, they followed directly.
Why are you more than 30 people?
Twenty of them were the guards of the royal city sent by Zhao Gan, and the remaining ten were disciples and warriors personally selected by Zhao Jia, in addition, there were several other people who were responsible for taking care of Zhao Zheng.
"Go over there!"
The border city also saw the enemy attacking.
He directly lifted the curtain and held Zhao Zheng in his arms, and then commanded everyone to run towards a mountain.
Zhao Yan commanded his subordinates and fought to the death to stop all the incoming enemies.
What shocked Zhao Yan was that the group of routed soldiers of the Qin State in tattered clothes in front of him were extremely strong in combat, even if the royal city guards faced this group of people, they still couldn't gain the upper hand.
"In this barren mountain range, how can such an elite Qin State rout be hidden?"
Zhao Yan was suspicious.
It's just that he didn't have time to think about it so much, and his eyes were fixed on the thief at the head.
