Chapter 131: Misunderstanding (3)

The atmosphere in the big tent was a little depressing, and a man in black clothes and black armor stood quietly in the big tent, his eyes were firmly fixed on the young general in silver armor in front of him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The young general frowned at this time, and the letter in his hand was very incomprehensible to him, if it weren't for the fact that he was born in a general's family, the conditions in the family were very good, and he could hire a very good and knowledgeable teacher for him, he really couldn't understand this letter.

The reason for this situation is that this letter is written in the small seal of the Qin State that has disappeared for a long time, and the font of the small seal does not look very good, which is evolved from the hieroglyphs.

So although he barely knew these words, but he also looked at them word by word, and after reading them, he had to transcribe them on a parchment scroll, so that he could understand the meaning of this, this is really a cumbersome process, if this person didn't say that this was a confidential letter, he would have let those civil officials under him do it, they must be more capable than himself, he is good at war, but this kind of thing is a little difficult for him.

"Whew!"

The young general let out a sigh of relief, he finally finished transcribing this letter at this time, holding the parchment scroll that he had transcribed, he looked at it very carefully, after reading it, he put down the parchment scroll, stared at the man in black clothes and black armor in the big tent, frowned, and didn't know what he was thinking, the people in the big tent saw his expression, they were a little curious about what the content of the letter was, how to make the general's face so solemn.

"Is everything this letter saying true?"

The white-robed general looked at the man in black and asked in a light tone.

The man in black froze and replied in a deep voice: "Back to the general's words, what is said in this letter is undoubtedly true, and there is absolutely no half-truth!" ā€

"Hmm!"

The white-robed general pondered for a while, thinking about something in his head, and then said: "I already know about this matter, but I don't know where you live and how many people in the tribe are, and I am not in a hurry about the matter of grain and grass. ā€

The man in black was stunned, the other party actually didn't want their grain and grass, this is a great news for them, before coming, the people above had explained, if the other party is not satisfied with the grain and grass, they can add some money and even other materials as appropriate, they have been at war with the outside countries for many years, and there are a lot of things captured in their hands, and they can also take out some.

However, the other party was not tempted by their things, this matter was somewhat unexpected by him, but everything is abnormal, the other party does not want their things, which not only did not make him happy, but made him sink in his heart, didn't the other party take a fancy to something else? He also seemed to be interested in the location and population information of their tribe, could it be that he wanted to annex their tribe entirely?

If that's the case, then he'd rather have blood splashed three steps than assassinate this person, and he can't go back anyway, so he just fights with this person.

Thinking of this, there was a faint murderous aura on the man in black, this murderous aura was not very strong, and the moment the murderous aura leaked out, the night man hurriedly reined in his breath, so as not to arouse the vigilance of the other party.

But the young general on the main seat and these generals in the tent are all battle-hardened veterans, and they are naturally very sensitive to this kind of murderous aura that precipitates from the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, and the moment the killing intent in the heart of the man in black moved, the seven or eight eyes in the big tent immediately locked him to death!

"Kill!"

The man in black looked abrupt, and the aura of danger he felt at that moment forced him to take action immediately, and a hidden extremely strange dagger instantly appeared in his hand, and then his body rushed forward and came down towards the white-robed general sitting on the main seat.

"General be careful!"

An exclamation suddenly sounded in the tent, and several subordinates had no time to rescue, and at this time they could only watch the black shadow rushing towards the white-robed general.

Ding!

Two short sounds sounded, and then there was a muffled snort, and the scene of blood splashing on the spot did not appear, but the black-clothed man who wanted to assassinate the white-robed general before vomited blood and retreated, falling to the ground, he just wanted to get up, and suddenly seven or eight long swords were already on his neck, and the fierce murderous aura shot from the eyes of everyone in the tent let him know that as long as he resisted a little, he would immediately be divided by the other party.

Playing with the sharp dagger in his hand, an unknown anger appeared in the expression of the white-robed general.

"The dagger is a good dagger, but your martial arts are a little worse!"

The faint tone sounded no different from the previous words, but if someone listened carefully and felt it, then they could hear a trace of suppressed anger in this bland sentence.

"Tell me, why did you assassinate me? Is it your king's order? ā€

The white-robed general thrust his dagger into the case in front of him, staring at the other party with uncontrollable anger.

"If you want to kill, you have to know what you want, why bother to say more, your skills are not as good as people, and if you die, you deserve it!"

The man in black turned his head sideways, not looking at him, his neck was resting, and he made a look of being killed by the neck, and he turned out to be bent on death.

"Hmph, I can guess if you don't say it, probably your King of Qin sent you to assassinate me, pretending to want to use grain and grass to persuade us to retreat, but in fact I still don't feel at ease, I want to use assassins to kill me, so that our army will not attack you, and will return on its own, am I right?"

The white-robed general had already gotten up at this time, his figure was not very tall, but somehow, every time he took a step, his figure would rise in the eyes of the man in black, and when he walked in front of the man in black, the latter stood in front of him like a god, so that he lost all his courage, and he couldn't even give birth to a trace of resistance.

"Pass the order, assemble the army, and march towards the Valley of the Slanting Wind!"

The man in black's eyes trembled, the valley of the slanting wind was the place where they were hiding, how did the other party know their location.

However, after giving this order, the white-robed general did not look at him again, and had already strode out of the big tent, and there was a neighing of war horses outside, and then the camp began to be lively.

In late July, Luo Chengshuai's army left Sanshuiyuan, towards Sanshuiyuan, one hundred and fifty miles away, the Sui army's forward march was very fast, two thousand cavalry as the vanguard, under the leadership of the general ******, galloped towards the valley of the slanting wind, and the valley of the slanting wind had received the news at this time, from the moment the Sui army sent troops, they began to build a defensive line, all the soldiers in the clan were assembled, whether it was a standing army or a reserve army, at this time began to pull out to the mouth of the valley, ready to meet the attack of the enemy.

"Patriarch, the two thousand pioneers of the Sui army have arrived in Pinglang Mountain, we can't wait any longer, this is our only chance, if we can't eat the other party's cavalry this time, then when the Sui army all arrives, then we will have to face endless pressure!"

Ye Tian looked very excited, but there was not a trace of solemnity in his expression, the excitement in his eyes was all that kind of bloodthirsty and murderous rage, and his heart was eager for war.

"Yes, patriarch, the enemy's cavalry is full of attack power, if we can't solve them in a battle, then even if we defeat the Sui army, we will be seriously threatened by their cavalry in the future, and this cavalry will become a shackle around our necks, and it will pose a mortal threat to us at any time!"

Seeing that his words came out, there was no effect, Ye Tian hurriedly signaled to Fei Xin on the side, who understood, and immediately stood up and explained to Elder Qin once again how important it was to defeat the opponent's cavalry at this time.

But after he finished speaking, the old man sitting above him didn't seem to react, his fierce eyes swept a glance at the two of them, and the two wanted to say something more, but after being swept by this gaze, the words in his mouth seemed to be stuck by the owner, and he couldn't say it for a while.

The old man's eyes looked at the middle-aged man standing below him, and he sighed slightly, there seemed to be confusion and blame in his eyes, and he didn't seem to think about why things turned out like this.

And the middle-aged man lowered his head slightly, looking a little depressed, but he inadvertently felt a gaze staring at him, and looked back without a trace, only to see that Ye Tianzheng looking at himself with a playful face, and the smugness in his expression was overflowing.

The middle-aged man seemed to have thought of something, he was shocked, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes, and he was immediately surged into his eyes by a wave of anger, glaring at Ye Tian fiercely, his fists clenched tightly, and he seemed to have great unwillingness and resentment.

Seeing the two people below fighting in secret, the old man above just glanced at the two of them, and a trace of essence flashed in his sunken eyes, but no one noticed it.

After a while, he said slowly: "General Ye, General Fei, how many soldiers and how many weapons are there in the valley, can you two know it?" ā€

After hearing the old man speak, Ye Tian and Fei Xin glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of excitement and joy in the other party's eyes, the elder asked this question, that is preparing for war! Then their request will be granted, right?

"Elder, there are 3,651 soldiers in my Qin State, including 1,123 standing troops, 2,228 reserve troops, 1,100 halberds, 2,800 swords, 960 shields, 1,200 bows and arrows, 320 crossbow arrows, and more than 108,000 arrows......"

Ye Tian is worthy of being the chief general of the Qin army, he is almost familiar with the armament situation under his command, and after this introduction, even those who are in charge of the munitions warehouse are probably not as detailed as he knows.

After everyone in the hall heard Ye Tian's words, the expressions on their faces were different, some people had a bottom in their hearts, while others looked very worried, and their faces were more solemn.

When Ye Tian was speaking, he was secretly observing the expressions on everyone's faces, and he was not very surprised to see the expressions on everyone's faces, it was natural for everyone to have such expressions, no wonder they were.

And what he is most concerned about is the expression of the thin old man sitting on it, this old man is Elder Qin, he is the most influential person in the Qin Kingdom, although the affairs of the tribe are not his words, but as long as he speaks, then most things can be done, and if he opens his mouth to oppose it, it is extremely difficult to do things.

The Qin Kingdom is actually not a country similar to the kingdom, at least there is no king in their country, so as to avoid the situation that the country is controlled by one person, and without a king, when it comes to large-scale matters that need to be decided, it is impossible to gather everyone to come over to discuss, so the House of Elders was established, and some elders decided some important things.

And these elders want to enter the House of Elders, the conditions are more harsh, first of all, the age limit, the age of the person who enters the House of Elders must be more than forty-five years old, such an age, people's social experience will be very rich, the world view and values have been fully formed, and it has completely faded the kind of mania of young people, they will do things very steadily, will not appear too aggressive, so they will not make some low-level mistakes.

And if you want to enter this Senate, there is another condition, that is, you must be trained by the Senate from an early age, it is very difficult to achieve this, the Senate is not large, and like other departments, they have to be self-reliant, unless they become senators, they do not have to think of working in the field, and before they become senators, they do not have privileges, so few people are willing to participate in the selection of the Senate, in this kingdom, there are many industries with a much better future than the Senate.

Originally, the original intention of the Senate was to discuss problems together, so that there would be no authoritarian and arbitrary practices, but in the successive battles last year, several senators of the Senate were also affected by the army and were scattered in the war, and when they came to this valley, only Elder Qin was left among the five senators of the Senate, and the next person who was most likely to enter the Senate was only forty-two years old, and it would take at least two or three years to enter the SenateIn other words, in these two or three years, Elder Qin's words would have a decisive impact on this kingdom.

Although Ye Tian, Fei Xin and the others don't like Elder Qin, since he experienced the incident last year, he seems to be like a different person, and the ideological righteousness of forging ahead has been completely thrown away, and the rest are all conservative, more than enough to be successful, and not enough to develop, this is the evaluation of these officers below about him, but if he doesn't fight, what do he do with these troops, they will have nothing to do, which is obviously not in the interests of the soldiers.

"Very good, General Ye is really competent!"

Elder Qin glanced at Ye Tian approvingly, the latter's face was a little proud, but after hearing the former's last words, his face changed suddenly.

"Then dare to ask General Ye, do you know so much about the situation of the Sui army?" (To be continued.) )
