Chapter 81: Entering Qin

Fanwu Anbo Mansion, before the dusty Li Muxing outfit was unloaded, he summoned Ma Wei, and he said: "You immediately lead a thousand horsemen out of the camp, quickly to Jiuyuan County, and enter Qin along the south of the river." Those who did this trip, the king of Chu also. ”

"The King of Chu has come out of the fortress?" Ma Wei looked at the fox baby who had just entered the account, a little inexplicable.

"Just be ordered, why ask?" Li Mu held the feather in his hand and stared at him.

"The last general respectfully obeys the order!" Ma Wei did not hesitate, and bowed down to take the feather in his hand.

"Slow." The fox baby waved his hand, and the Chu fan in his hand pointed at Ma Wei. "You stand down first."

"Xiangbang's design has been completed, why is the general like this?" The fox baby knew that Li Mu wanted Ma Wei to save the King of Chu, but if he really wanted to rescue the King of Chu, the whole plan would not be successful. "And if the king of Chu doesn't die, he doesn't know what is suspicious?"

"If the king of Chu is not dead, I still know that my Zhao country is not a beast villain." On the way back, Li Mu thought a lot, and Ma Tou even turned to Qi Guo once, but he soon turned around, so he was indifferent when he heard the words of the fox baby. "Ma Wei!" He shouted.

"Zhao Guo doesn't exist, the general ......" Seeing that he was stubborn, the fox baby sighed, but when he saw Ma Wei entering the account again, he could only keep his mouth shut.

"The king of Chu wants to enter the Qin State, and at this time he should be outside the Yan clan, so your department will pull out the camp today, one person and two horses, day and night." Li Mu looked at Ma Wei and instructed again, and his eyes followed him until he came out of the account.

The Qin army had not yet launched an attack, and the 1,000 cavalry led by Ma Wei could follow the official road to Jiuyuan County, because there were post stations along the way, so the journey was very fast. The really difficult place to travel was Henan after crossing the Yellow River, which was why only a thousand cavalry could be sent. It was difficult for Yunzhong and Jiuyuan to raise thousands of military horses for a time, and without auxiliary horses to carry beans and wheat, the strategic mobility of the cavalry was extremely limited - the horses had to eat grass for eight or nine hours a day, and they could not even compare to the foot soldiers.

When Ma Wei led a thousand cavalry to leave Fanwu, Xiong Han, Fu Jing and others had just crossed the Yellow River on the grassland. Crossing the river is not without a price, the Linhu people don't want gold and silver, as long as the gods, and Fei Jing had to give up three dragon horses to cross the river. In addition to crossing the river, the chief of Linhu, who got the divine horse, also generously asked Fei Jing to supplement the grain and grass in the tribe, and Linhu did not grow beans and wheat, but mainly dried meat and pippen.

It was nearly October, and the weather outside the city was getting colder and colder, and according to Wu Zhiheng, the temperature would suddenly drop to minus 10 degrees at night, and there were already people suffering from frostbite at night because there was no Pippen. Pippen is necessary, even if everyone is dressed in a few sheep's furs.

Cross the Yellow River and then follow the north-flowing Yellow River to the south, which is flat and has abundant water and grass, and sometimes meets some grassland tribes. With a little salt or gold or silver, these hospitable tribes often make for a good night's sleep: mare's milk wine, roasted whole sheep, and tribal women sleeping in bed.

"General Fei, Brother Wang knows that I am like this, I must be punished?" Thousands of miles away from Yingdu, Xiong Han felt a trace of fear at this time, and at the same time, he also missed his mother more and more, and missed the boring life of Yingdu.

"The king advocates courage and faith, and what His Royal Highness has done is a brave act, and the king will be happy, so how can he punish him?" The closer we get to Quyan, the more difficult the journey becomes, the initial enthusiasm has long since disappeared, and the fear begins to flood my heart. Fei Jing understands this psychology.

"Really?" Xiong Han's sad face was smiling. He admired Brother Wang and hoped that he could gallop on the battlefield like Brother Wang, but now he suddenly understood that he was not Brother Wang, not as brave as him, and not as strong as him.

"Your Royal Highness, the brave warriors, and the others are obvious to all, how can the king ignore them?" Yu Jing comforted, "There is a punishment, and it is also a small punishment, just a moss punishment." However, after this, who dares to say that His Highness is disloyal, and who dares to say that His Highness is not brave? ”

"General Xie Fei." Xiong Han's face glowed red, and the uneasiness and fear in his heart were swept away, and his face was full of smiles.

"Brother Concubine's wonderful words." As soon as Fu Jing, who exited Xiong Han's leather tent, turned around and ran into Hong Mou, the sun was setting, the golden light was shining, and he could only see Hong Mou's not very clear outline.

After Hongmu and Wu Mu landed on the shore, they didn't get much effect, and the map and guide were enough to find the way to Qin. Fei Jing hoped that they could wait in Jieshi Harbor, but Hong Mou, who had seen all the wind and waves, insisted on entering Qin with everyone. When Fu Jing asked him the reason, he replied not 'for the king', but for murder. He hadn't killed in a long time, so he wanted to kill.

"I'm telling you the truth." Fei Jing smiled and explained. "Your Highness's move, I might as well do it."

"How many days are there to enter Qin?" Hong Mu nodded, still unable to see his face clearly. But at this time, Fei Jing saw him holding a sword, and the sword was put into the sheath. I think he was dancing a sword just now.

"There are still days to go to the land of the meandering river." It has been more than ten days since the river crossed, and the team is getting closer and closer to the Qin State.

"The land of the meanders?" Hongmu was puzzled. "The itinerary is October, and the temple has been completed, but you and I have not yet entered Qin."

"The temple is over, and the marriage will be completed immediately." Time is indeed behind schedule, and Fei Jing can only hope that the wedding date will be in late October. "The land of the meandering river is the place where the great river bends, and there is a ...... there," Fei Jing still faced the west, but the sound of horses' hooves made him turn, and to the south, a group of cavalry was approaching. Equipment! He hurriedly shouted, "Equipment! ”

"It's Chu Qi." Hong Mou's eyes were better than those of Fei Jing, he quickly took out Lu Lijing, and said, "It's indeed Chu Qi, and Zhao Ren." ”

"Chu Qi?" Thousands of miles away on the grassland there will be Chu cavalry, Fei Jing is very unbelievable, when he also raised Lu Lijing, the Chu cavalry wearing ring armor really showed in front of his eyes, and he also saw that the knight at the head was holding a military flag with the word 'Yi' written on it.

"Yiyang Hou?!" He opened his mouth in surprise, and the big one could swallow the whole Lu Lijing.

"Why is Yiyang Hou here?" Hongmu also saw the 'Yi' word flag.

"I don't know." Fu Jing replied that she didn't know, but she thought of a possibility in her heart: it was the king who secretly sent the Marquis of Yiyang into Qin to welcome the princess. The reason why everyone doesn't know is that the king doesn't want the queen mother and the princess to know.

The military flag with the word 'Yi' written on it was waved in the north wind, and soon the cavalry rushed to the front of Fei Jing and others. The first cavalry general knew Concubine Jing, and after he got off the horse, he saluted Concubine Jing and said, "The last general is drunk and has seen General Concubine." Tell the king that the general has something important to say. ”

"The King?" Fu Jing was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand why Yi Zui asked to see the king.

"Zhao Renyan is out of the fortress and wants to enter Qin." Yi Zui looked at Captain Zhao Guo who was accompanying him with some confusion.

"The king is not out of the jam." Fei Jing said in a low voice. Whether it is the king or the prince, he does not want to reveal his whereabouts.

"Not out of the jam?" Yi drunk became more and more puzzled. Three months ago, my father was entrusted by the king to go out of Qin, because Zhao Jun also went out to attack Qin, so the two sides went together. The Zhao army could only wait for the order in the meandering land of the river before the order of the Zhao army entered the Qin, so the Chu army went first. Three days later, Zhao Jun suddenly caught up and reported the news, saying that the king had also entered Qin, and his father sent him back, but he didn't expect the news of Zhao Ren to be accurate.

"It's not the king out of the fortress, it's the prince out of the fortress." Fei Jing pulled Yi drunk to the side to tell the truth.

"Why did the prince get out of the jam?" Yi asked again. Outside the Sai, except for being able to use carrier pigeons to contact Yingdu in one direction, the information received is very limited. In addition to Zhao Qi of Jiuyuan County transmitting some news, and then the Marquis of Chu who came out of the Yan clan spies to report on the situation in Qin.

"The prince shared the worries of the king, so he went north out of the fortress and wanted to welcome the young son into Chu." In a few words, he couldn't explain Xiong Han and why he was here, and Yu Jing could only say it briefly. He replied: "The temple has been completed, where will Yi Hou go, and will he enter Qin?" ”

Fei Jing is a general of the cavalry, if he is drunk by another person, he must be suspicious. Listening to his question: "I haven't entered Qin yet." Zhao Renyan said that the king wanted to enter Qin, so he waited for the king to slow down. ”

Yiyang can only be regarded as a small county, and there are only a few hundred knights who can be used. The king entrusted him, and the Marquis of Yiyang led more than 300 knights north to Zhao State. It was only when they arrived in Xiangzhou that they received the horses from Yangma Island. Zhao Ren suddenly reported that the king was out of the fortress, knowing that the trip would be delayed, but the Marquis of Yiyang still let Yi drunk to come to meet the king.

Hearing that Yi drunk said that Yi Yang Hou was waiting for him slowly, Fei Jing had joy and worry in her heart. The good thing is that the Marquis of Yiyang will definitely get the help of Zhibisi when he enters Qin, and things should not be lost; The worry is how to explain to the Marquis of Yiyang why Prince Fierce went north to the fortress? Once the explanation is not good, with the temper of the Marquis of Yiyang, maybe his people will be sent back to China by him.

"Out of the plug and into Qin are all to welcome the princess, now that the temple has been completed, how can the Marquis of Yi slow down?" Fei Jing looked at the knights who had come out of the tent to greet Yi Drunk and the others, and said.

"General Fei's intention, the last general should be the reinstatement of my lordship, please ask my king to enter Qin first?" Yi asked drunk. Since it was not the king who came out of the jam but the prince, there was really no need for my father to wait.

"Yes, yes." Fei Jing Road. "Yi Hou Yu Yan Shi stuffed into Qin, I am equal to Fang Qu into Qin, and then they all go south along Jingshui, why treat me? After entering Qin, maybe I still have to wait for Yihou. ”

The large army could only go south along Qingshui to Yan's fortress, and later the Xiongnu Shan Yu led 140,000 cavalry to attack the Han Dynasty (14 years of Emperor Xiaowen of the Han Dynasty, 166 years ago, at this time Yan's fortress was called Xiaoguan), and it was this road that was taken. However, after entering the Yanshi Fortress, the Xiongnu did not go to the Jingshui River Valley, but went straight south along Liupanshui (that is, along the Huangshui River Valley), and the forward pointed directly at Yongcheng.

There are only more than 30 horses in Fujing, and the beans and wheat carried by the auxiliary horses are very sufficient, so you can go directly through the next door for hundreds of miles without detouring the long road, enter the square canal from Malianshui, and then pass through the Yiqu to Jingshui. Fu Jing did not join the Marquis of Yiyang, in addition to the consideration of time, the other was that he had already entered Qin at that time, and for the sake of morale and military scheming, it was impossible for the Marquis of Yiyang to send him back to China.

"In this case, the last general will return to the camp tonight." Yi was drunk and didn't know what Fei Jing was thinking, and thought he was worried that it was too late to enter Qin.

"It's never too late to feed the horses." Yu Jing stopped him. "I'll make an appointment when I will enter Qin."
