Inside the canyon.

Bai Yan was holding the cloth and was treating the wounds of the wounded soldiers.

The soldiers who died in the battle have moved out of the canyon, but many soldiers who are seriously injured or injured are not suitable to leave the canyon at the moment.

Although the Xiongnu army has decided to leave, there will be no danger to their lives when they go out, but the city of Gaonu has been burned down, and there is a huge plain outside the canyon, and there is no place to shelter from the wind.

"General!"

Several panting soldiers came to Bai Yan's side: "General, those hundreds of cattle have all been taken away by the Huns and the Yueshi people, and none of them have been found!" ”

"We searched for miles and miles, but we didn't leave any of them."

Several iron cavalry generals looked helpless.

"Okay, you go down and rest first, don't look for it anymore!"

Bai Yan said that when he heard the words of the soldiers, there was no surprise, but it was a pity.

The common people of Qin State practiced the system of farming and warfare, and every cow was worth a lot of money, and in normal times, except for the cattle that died of illness, even the generals in the army, there was little beef to taste.

To put it bluntly, apart from Chai and him, few iron cavalry soldiers have eaten beef.

Therefore, Bai Yan originally wanted to see if he could find the cattle that had broken the formation before, and if he could find one of them, he would give them a taste for the soldiers.

After all, in this matter of eating beef, although the iron cavalry soldiers did not say it, Bai Yan knew that the soldiers were very envious of Zhao Biancai.

According to rumors, Li Mu would kill a few cows every day to improve the food for Zhao Guoyanmen and Zhao Bianqi in the clouds.

Bai Yan didn't know if this rumor was true or not, but Bai Yan clearly remembered that whether it was Duke Jin or Bai Yu, they had mentioned that Li Mu was in charge of the taxes of Yanmen and had the right to deal with it privately.

According to what Jin Gong and Bai Yu said, in terms of money, Li Mu is fully capable.

After all, it is a local tax, and Li Mu has the right to call it alone.

This is placed in the Qin State, and I dare not think about it.

However, it was precisely like this, Bai Yan felt that the rumors should be true, and this was one of the reasons why Zhao Bianqi was strong in battle and swore allegiance to Li Mu.

Inside the canyon.

After the Iron Cavalry soldiers retired and left, Bai Yan continued to help treat the seriously injured soldiers.

It's not far from Bai Yan.

Meng Yu, who was wearing the official uniform of the Qin State, followed closely behind the iron cavalry soldiers, and carefully stepped over one Hun corpse after another.

Looking at the canyon full of Xiongnu corpses, even if Meng Yu did not personally participate, he could still imagine how tragic the war that happened here was.

A moment later.

Accompanied by entering the depths of the canyon, under the leadership of the iron cavalry, Meng Yu finally saw Bai Yan.

"Lord Meng, this is the general!"

The Iron Cavalry said to Meng Yu.

To be honest, Meng Yu looked at Bai Yan in front of him, and he was not prepared at all.

Because he didn't expect that at this moment, in front of him, this young man who bandaged the wounds of an iron cavalry soldier was actually the iron cavalry commander, Bai Yan!

Meng Yu had imagined that Bai Yan, the young commander who led the army of iron cavalry and fought to the death against the Huns, must be a young and strong person with a strong temperament.

Meng Yu also imagined that when he saw Bai Yan, he would be on the top of a mountain, or in a place where there were many iron cavalry generals.

Meng Yu even thought of the young generals such as Li Xin and Wang Li in the court, thinking that the young Bai Yan was also a freshly dressed angry horse with cold eyebrows

From the beginning of learning about what happened, to the later crossing of the corpses of the Huns in the canyon, Meng Yu imagined countless scenes of the first Bai Yan.

But Meng Yu never thought that he would be so caught off guard!

If it weren't for the iron cavalry general personally leading the way, Meng Yu couldn't believe that the young man in front of him, who was not good-looking and looked introverted, was actually the Bai Yan he imagined.

The Bai Yan who did not hesitate to bear the consequences alone, let the people migrate, and led the iron cavalry army to stay in Gaonu to fight the Huns! It's actually the handsome boy in front of him.

Inside the canyon.

Hearing the voice of the iron cavalry soldier, Bai Yan turned his head and saw a Qin State official beside the soldier who had never met before.

"General!"

The iron cavalry saw Bai Yan get up and saluted.

Bai Yan nodded, then got up, and looked at the rather old Qin State official in front of him, who was wearing an official uniform.

"Lord Meng?"

Bai Yan arched his hand, and just now he heard the iron cavalry soldiers call this official Master Meng.

At this time, Meng Yu, who had returned to his senses, hurriedly bowed his hand.

"Cheng Meng Yu in the imperial history, I have seen General Bai!"

Meng Yu said, informing Bai Yan of his identity.

Looking at the young man in front of him who had just bandaged the wounds of the soldiers, Meng Yu was full of curiosity.

There is no imaginary grandeur, nor is there the slightest sense of domineering and youthful frivolity.

But Meng Yu knew very clearly that this young man named Bai Yan, who was not good-looking, when everyone did not believe that the Xiongnu and the Yue clan would go south, the young man would give an order to let all the high-slave people leave regardless of the consequences.

If it weren't for this young man's fire, he would have burned down the city of Gaonu.

If it weren't for this young man leading the army of iron cavalry, he would have fought a bloody battle here in Gaonu.

Not to mention the Gaonu people, and even the entire Shangjun people, the Qin soldiers stationed in Shangjun suddenly faced the 150,000 troops of the Xiongnu and Yueshi who went south, and the consequences were unimaginable.

"Gao Nu City guards Bai Yan, I have seen Lord Meng!"

Bai Yan was really startled when he heard that the official in front of him was actually Yushi Zhongcheng, but fortunately, he calmed down in an instant and saluted again.

Bai Yan knew that Zhongcheng in the imperial history was an official in the court of the Qin State who controlled the power to impeach hundreds of officials.

It can be said that in Xianyang City, in the palace of the center of power, facing the adults in front of him, even other civil and military officials, they should also be a little taboo.

However, why did such a royal historian with such a big position of power come to Shangjun and come to Gaonu.

The doubts in his mind just surfaced, and Bai Yan quickly thought that it was probably because of himself.

"Lord Meng, now that the high slaves have been burned, there are many slackness, and I hope Lord Meng will not blame him."

After Bai Yan saluted, he said to Meng Yu.

Looking at the surrounding valleys, there were all the corpses of the Huns at a glance, and thinking that the fire in Gaonu City had not been extinguished at the moment, Bai Yan quietly observed this imperial historian.

He wanted to observe whether the imperial historian Zhongcheng in front of him, who had the right to impeach hundreds of officials, was a person from Qi Qi.

"Why do you say that you are slack!"

Meng Yu shook his head when he heard Bai Yan's words.

"This time, Meng Yu was ordered by the king to come to Shangjun, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh, fortunately, General Bai was stationed in Gaonu, otherwise Shangjun would be in trouble!"

Meng Yu said to Bai Yan.

Thinking of the 150,000 troops of the Yue clan and the Xiongnu, and then thinking of the young man in front of him who only led more than 10,000 iron horsemen to fight to the death in Gaonu.

How angry he was at Bai Yan's actions at the beginning, how ashamed Meng Yu is now.

Right now, Meng Yu can't wait to rush back to Xianyang immediately and inform the king of everything here.

He had a hunch.

After this battle, Bai Yan's status in the king's heart will definitely not be weaker than that of young generals such as Li Xin and Wang Li in the court.

Even if Bai Yan led the troops outside, he was not in the court of the Xianyang Palace.

"Master Meng's praise! Bai Yan was just a moment of good luck, and this time he was able to resist the Xiongnu and Yue's family, all because the soldiers forgot to die. ”

Bai Yan faced Meng Yu and bent down to arch his hand.

Although he didn't dare to say that he was sure, he didn't feel a trace of hostility in his eyes when he looked at Meng Yu, and he felt that the Lord Meng in front of him should not be Qi Qi's person.

After being relieved, Bai Yan turned around and handed the strip of cloth in his hand to the other soldiers.

Meng Yu on the side looked at Bai Yan very unexpectedly.

If he hadn't heard it with his own ears and seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard for Meng Yu to imagine that Fang Cai's words would come from the mouth of a young general who was young and had just turned the tide.

"Lord Meng, please!"

Bai Yan said to Meng Yu.

Since he was ordered to come, he naturally wanted to return to his life.

Bai Yan knew that Meng Yu still needed to go to other battlefields to take a look, and knew the details.

"Please!"

Meng Yu nodded.

A moment later.

Bai Yan took Meng Yu and carried the corpse all the way out of the canyon.

At the moment of walking out of the canyon, looking outside the canyon, there were rows of corpses of fallen soldiers.

Even though he was mentally prepared, seeing this scene, Bai Yan was still short of breath.

From where Bai Yu took over the Bai Iron Cavalry, after becoming the main general.

For the first time, the casualties of the soldiers were so large, and so many soldiers died in front of them.

Looking at the corpses of these soldiers, I thought of the official standing next to him, who was the imperial historian Zhongcheng who had the right to impeach hundreds of officials.

At this moment, Bai Yan wanted to desperately say that the mastermind behind the Huns' southward movement was Qi Qi.

"General Bai doesn't have to be sad, this revenge will be repaid by blood in my Qin State in the future!"

Meng Yu suddenly saw Bai Yan close his eyes, his bloody hand clenched tightly, thinking that Bai Yan saw the corpses of these soldiers and wanted to kill the Huns.

"What Master Meng said is that this revenge will be repaid with blood!"

Bai Yan opened his eyes.

Without evidence, it is impossible to move Qi Qi at all, but this matter must be repaid with blood.
