Chapter 167: Hey, Hey! Willing to die
Yin Mountain Pass.
Lao Yu was wearing Qin armor and wearing Qin sword, standing on the checkpoint.
Because of General Hu Jin's order, now the Yinshan Pass has been heavily guarded, and all of them are on alert.
But Lao Yu knew that Lord Meng Yu, an official who came with Xianyang, went to Gaonu, and in a few days, with Bai Yan stepping down, he would get an order to withdraw his troops here.
Speaking of which, Lao Yu also wondered why Bai Yan would let all the high-slave people migrate to Yuzhong, which was completely incomprehensible.
In the eyes of Lao Yu, even if the Xiongnu army really went south, when the Xiongnu army arrived, its number Bai Yan could not resist, and with General Hu Jin here, he could completely withdraw his troops, even Xianyang would not blame Bai Yan.
It is not at all guilty of doing so.
At the moment, I don't know if the Xiongnu army is going south or not, but Lord Meng from Xianyang already knows about it and has rushed to Gaonu.
What's more serious is that the county guard Yang Xian and the supervisor Shi Li have already written to Xianyang a few days ago.
Bai Yan is afraid that he is really going to be heeled this time.
"I don't know how General Hu Jin will respond."
After learning that the minister Meng Yu did not enter Yuzhong and rushed to Gaonu overnight, he had already ordered someone to inform General Hu Jin.
Just wait for General Hu Jin to be, will there be any orders.
Grunt~!
Just as he was frowning, Lao Yu suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves under the checkpoint behind him.
When the laborer turned around, he saw a Hun man, with his wife and children, holding a wooden card made of Qin, riding a horse to the bottom of the checkpoint in a panic.
Looked at.
Lao Yu knew that this Xiongnu should have lived in Gaonu City before, and now he has been attached to the Qin State and has become a Qin person.
However, Lao Yu was very puzzled as to why the Hun appeared here at this time.
With questions, soon, Lao Yu saw two Qin soldiers hurriedly taking the Hun and a child to the checkpoint.
"General! This person said that the 150,000 troops of the Xiongnu and Yueshi have gone south, and now they are already fighting against the Gaonu Iron Cavalry! ”
A Qin official came to Lao Yu with a panicked expression, arched his hand, and handed the Hun wooden card and a roll of bamboo slips to Lao Yu.
"What?"
When Lao Yu heard this, his first reaction was that it was fake, especially since the person who passed the news was still a Huns.
However, when the bamboo slip was opened, it was indeed the news from the Yunshan Pass, which not only had the mark of Gao Nu, but also had a seal, which did say that the Yueshi and Xiongnu armies had gone south, and the number was 150,000.
If you think it's fake at first.
But after reading the bamboo slips, Lao Yu immediately realized that something was wrong, if it was true?
Thinking of this, Lao Yu's face suddenly changed, and his heart became flustered, especially since Bai Yan had always said that the Hun army would go south.
"Why are bamboo slips with you?"
Lao Yu looked at the name on the wooden plaque, and then looked at the Hun man named Ebony Hu, who was still very puzzled at the moment.
"General, this is Ebony Hu recklessly snatched from the other Huns."
Ebony said to Lao Yu, and then told General Lao Yu about his origin and experience.
Wu Muhu actually didn't know much, and the matter was still after leaving Gaonu City, and under the order of Bai Yan, the city guard, he left Gaonu City with his wife and children.
Just halfway through, eight Huns stopped him.
Because these eight Huns all know that when he was young, because of his strength, he offended the tribal leader and fled to Qin, and after meeting his wife, he settled in Gaonu.
The purpose of those Huns stopping him was also very simple, because according to the original plan, these eight Huns had been two days in advance, responsible for ambushing halfway and intercepting the news of the Qin army.
But when they found that Gao Nu City was guarding Bai Yan and suddenly asked all the people to leave Gao Nu, the eight Huns realized that Bai Yan, the iron horse master, had guessed that the tribe was heading south.
However, the eight Huns who had already left Gaonu City did not know the arrangements of Bai Yan, the city guard, and because of the identity of the Huns, they could not get close to Gaonu at all, and they did not even dare to let the Qin army see them.
Fortunately, when they were behind, they suddenly saw nearly a thousand people suddenly returning to Gaonu with the bamboo slips of the county guard, so the six of them divided into two people and returned to Gaonu
Fearing that there would be insufficient manpower, the eight men found him.
"The bodies of the four border Qin soldiers are five miles away."
Ebony said to Lao Yu.
At the moment when Ebony Hu's words fell, Lao Yu shouted angrily.
"Someone! Send a hundred cavalry to hunt down those Huns! ”
Lao Yu was really stunned, just five miles away from the Yinshan Pass, where the Huns were ambushing and cutting off the news.
Although news from other passes will still be sent to Yuzhong from other places.
But at the nearest Yinshan Pass, the laborers who were ordered to be stationed here learned about this, how not to be angry.
What scares the workers even more is.
What Bai Yan said before was true, not only the Xiongnu army, but even the Yueshi army went south together, and there were as many as 150,000.
Looking in the direction of Gaonu City, Lao Yu's face became more and more pale when he thought that Bai Yan was likely to lead his subordinates to fight alone with the armies of the Xiongnu and Yue Clan.
"Why do you want to help the Qin people?"
Lao Yu looked at Ebony and asked, this was his last doubt.
Because Emuhu is a Huns, and those Huns also promised that now the Huns already have a head Mandanyu, which is different from ten years ago, as long as Wumuhu makes meritorious service this time, he can return to the Hun tribe to become a small leader and get sheep.
Logically.
Ebony Hu will not risk his life, ignore his wife and children, and take the opportunity to send the news.
"Hey, hey!"
Ebony looked at Lao Yu, his rough face, a smile, and then looked at his son.
Beside Wu Muhu, the ten-year-old child looked at Lao Yu timidly, perhaps because of blood relationship, this child was very scared when facing Lao Yu and Qin Zu.
But as if thinking of something, the ten-year-old child was timid, as if he wanted to cry, and gradually firmed.
"General Bai Yan is a good person, the best person, I want to follow General Bai Yan when I grow up, I want to become a soldier under Lord Bai Yan."
The ten-year-old looked at the laborer, and when he had finished speaking, his little face panted, and he lowered his head as if he had used all his courage.
Level above.
All the Qin pawns who were holding Changge heard the child's voice, and the Qin pawn, who didn't know what the situation was in the distance, looked at the child with a puzzled expression.
When they saw that the child had the blood of the Huns, and was still timid, thinking back to the child's words, a famous Qin pawn glanced at each other.
It was hard for them to imagine why a child with Xiongnu blood was determined to follow Bai Yan when he grew up.
Even Lao Yu, looking at this little child at this moment, was full of astonishment.
Bai Yan has only been a high slave for a long time, even if he spends money to buy an adult, he can't do it to this extent, let alone a milky child.
But this moment.
Lao Yu looked at the child, but understood why Ebony Hu would help Qin Guo deliver news.
"Pass my order and immediately inform General Hu Jin of the news."
Lao Yu turned his head and handed the bamboo slip to his cronies, and hurriedly ordered.
"No!"
The cronies beside Lao Yu took the bamboo slips and hurriedly turned around and left.
"You go to Yuzhong first, and the general will definitely reward you in the future."
When the worker saw his cronies leave, he said to the ebony wood, and then looked at the child with a worried expression.
Lao Yu knew that Master Meng Yu had already gone to Gaonu, and it was likely that he would not be able to catch up now.
What's even more frightening is that with the number of Xiongnu and Yue's army, if there are no reinforcements, Shangjun is already in danger.
Not to mention Bai Yan's army of iron cavalry, they can't resist it at all.
Even here at the Yinshan Pass, it can't resist the armies of the Xiongnu and the Yue clan at all.
"Yes!"
Wu Muhu nodded at Lao Yu, and then took his son under the leadership of Qin Shu and walked down the checkpoint.
Half a time later.
Knowing that the matter was urgent, he ordered to begin carrying the baggage needed for the battle to the pass.
Regardless of whether he can resist it in the future, he must not take half a step back before General Hu's order arrives.
"Get out of the way, you let me pass!"
Lao Yu was commanding his subordinates, and suddenly there was a sound of argument.
Soon after, a Qin soldier came to the pass with a Qin soldier who was also wearing Qin armor.
"General, this person has to go to Gaonu!"
The Qin pawn guarding the pass said to Lao Yu.
Hearing this, Lao Yu looked at the Qin pawn suspiciously.
"Xiongnu and Yueshi, 150,000 people are in Gaonu, why are you going? Wherever you go, you will die, hurry."
Lao Yu frowned, and after finishing speaking, he was about to ask someone to take this Qin pawn down.
But I never thought about it, and the words were not finished.
Qin Shu smiled.
"General, if that's the case, then I'm willing to die!"
Qin Pawn's words, not to mention Lao Yu, even the other Qin pawns who were busy carrying arrows were all stunned in place.
"Why?"
Lao Yu frowned, and looked at Qin Pawn with puzzlement.
"General Hui, my name is Jue, and I am a corporal of the five doctors Bai Yan!"
Jue looked at Lao Yu, bent down and arched his hand, got up and pointed to the north: "Now that my general is in Gaonu, even if there are 150,000 enemy troops, Jue is one person and one horse, and he is willing to go to Gaonu to die." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the north, and now he already knew where the army of 150,000 Xiongnu and Yueshi was in Gaonu City in the north.
But he still has to go.
"I hope the general will let me pass!"
Jue turned his head and looked at Lao Yu's gaze, not dodging for a minute.
In his eyes, Bai Yan is under the sky in the north, so no matter how many enemy troops there are in the north, he still has to go alone.
"You're only one person, you can't help much, and you're going to die!"
Lao Yu looked at Jue, incredulous, and opened his mouth to persuade.
With a smile on his face, he replied without hesitation.
"Hey, hey! Willing to die! ”
Ju said with a smile.
Lao Yu looked at Qi Yan's eyes, and at this moment, he suddenly envied Bai Yan.
Thinking of the child with the blood of the Huns before, it was hard for him to imagine that the young man who was in Yangcheng and was covered in blood with Qin Jian in his hand had unconsciously made him envious.
But it was also at this moment that Lao Yu suddenly thought of why Bai Yan did not hesitate to risk losing his official position and let the high-slave people leave based on speculation.
Perhaps it was precisely because of that that that that these people would appear around Bai Yan.
"Go ahead!"
The laborer who wanted to understand didn't stop the Qin pawn in front of him anymore.
Lao Yu knows, let alone a Yinshan Pass, for people who are not even afraid of death, and would rather die than follow Bai Yan, there is no male pass in the world that can stop him.
"Thank you, General!"
Jue said with a smile, as if he had received a gift, and hurried towards the castle tower.
Then one person and one horse, at the Yinshan Pass, under the gaze of everyone, headed north.
"Bai Yan!"
Lao Yu looked at the north and muttered.
