Chapter 680: The old man begged to be seen
Under dusk.
Ten miles outside Linzi City, the birds and beasts were scattered, and the faint roar made all the carriages driving on the official road stop.
Whether it was the groom or the people riding in the carriage, when they heard the movement, their faces changed.
Then I saw a man, full of panic with his wife and children, leaving the carriage and hiding in the dense forest on the side, even the carriage was in a panic to find a way to drive the carriage to some places where it could hide.
Half an hour later.
Outside Linzi City, the mighty Qin army iron cavalry, accompanied by the banners of the Qin State, gathered on the plain, looking at the Qi defenders on the tower of Linzi City.
Li Xin held the horse rope, wearing Qin armor, in front of the crowded Qin army, looking at the Linzi City Tower, looking at the dense Qi defenders in the city tower, and Yang Yan on the side glanced at each other, and after seeing Yang Yan nodding, he raised his hand to signal the soldiers behind him.
Soon.
Under Li Xin's instructions, several generals took their subordinates to guard the other gates of Linzi City.
Upstairs in Linzi City.
At this moment, the soldiers of the Qi State were all in a panic, their expressions were full of paleness and fear, and people with trembling hands and feet abounded.
"Iron Rider! It's really Qin Guo's iron horse! ”
"Outside the city are all under the command of Qin Wuliejun, the most elite iron cavalry of the Qin Kingdom!"
Countless Qi defenders crowded into the city roads, and the sounds of panic sounded everywhere.
Looking at the plains in the distance outside the city, full of the elite divisions of the Qin State, the two most elite cavalry teams north of the Central Plains in the past, not to mention the soldiers of the Qi State in the city road, they were the fierce and fierce generals of the Qi State in the past, and their faces were not good.
The Qi country has not been at war for more than 40 years, and in the world where civilian materials are not rich, not to mention more than 40 years ago, whether the men of the Qi country who experienced the war can survive to this day more than 40 years later, even the white-haired old soldiers who have lived to this day may not have been on the battlefield 40 years ago and killed people with swords.
Now that they have to face the most elite iron cavalry of the Qin State, whenever the minds of the defenders of the Qi State are full of panic when they think of the famous names of those iron cavalry outside the city in the past.
Let them bully and bully the people in the past, let them go to the battlefield to fight with the Qin army, and all of them are afraid.
At this moment, on the upper floor of Linzi City, there are only some Qi generals who are from noble families and have been aiming to be famous since childhood, while constantly shouting around, they draw their swords and raise them high, signaling all the Qi soldiers not to be afraid of the Qin army outside the city.
But no matter how the generals shouted, the effect was minimal.
At this time, the problem faced by Linzi City was not only that the soldiers had not experienced the war, but also that there were no Qi generals who had led troops on the battlefield on the city.
This also leads to two fatal hidden dangers, one is that the generals who lead the troops lack the experience to lead the defenders in battle, and the other is the lack of sufficient prestige.
Just like the generals of the Qin army, if you want to boost morale, why shout, if you are here, your prestige will be there, your morale will be there, and you don't need to shout or be anxious at all.
Outside the city gates.
Li Xin, who was riding on a horse on the plains, naturally noticed the movement on the castle tower, and when he saw that an arrow with little strength flew out of the castle tower and soon fell to the ground, and the distance from the arrow from the castle tower was only more than 20 steps.
Seeing this scene, Li Xin slowly turned around on his horse and walked towards the back of the army.
"Uncle, are you really General Bai Yan?"
On the war horse, Xiao Shu'er looked innocent, raised his head full of reverence, and looked at his uncle who was holding him.
I used to shout again and again, but now I know that everyone in the village, whether children or adults, the big man mentioned in the past, the famous and famous general, is actually his uncle, which is excited, excited, happy, and maybe all the emotions for Xiao Shu'er.
Unlike adults, Xiao Shu'er didn't know why he was in the village just now, and those adults who were fierce and vicious in the past were all afraid to look at his uncle, but in Xiao Shu'er's eyes, the little uncle was the famous general, and he also took him on a horse, which was enough for him to be happy, enough for him to be happy, enough for him to be proud.
"Happy?"
Bai Yan didn't answer Shu'er's words, looked at Shu'er dotingly, looked at Shu'er and nodded excitedly, and then rode a horse and took Shu'er to the back of the iron cavalry army step by step.
In the midst of the mighty Qin army, seeing Bai Yan's arrival, Li Xin and Yang Yan were already waiting, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted.
"Li Xin, meet Wu Liejun!"
"Yang Yan! Meet Wu Liejun! ”
Li Xin and Yang Yan led the iron cavalry and the side cavalry soldiers, and they all bowed to Bai Yan who came on horseback.
After Bai Yan asked Shu'er to grasp the horse rope, he turned over and dismounted, raised his hand and saluted the soldiers.
After the ceremony.
Bai Yan raised his head and looked at Li Xin, Li Xin also looked at Bai Yan at this time, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
"There is a brother! Don't come unharmed! ”
Bai Yan looked at Li Xin's smile, there was a hint of stiffness and guilt, and he said, just like when he was in Xianyang, he drank with Li Xin and Qiang Qi, and called Li Xin.
However, unlike when they drank together in the past, now Li Xin's face has long since disappeared, replaced by tiredness, tiredness, and even his eyes no longer seem to be as clear and energetic as before.
"Brother Yan!"
When Li Xin heard Bai Yan's words, he also looked at Bai Yan, and in addition to gratitude in his eyes, he felt guilty.
Listening to Bai Yan's title, what came to Li Xin's mind was that when he led 200,000 Qin troops to attack Chu, he received a message from Bai Yan before he entered Chu.
In that scroll of bamboo slips, Bai Yan once reminded him to beware of the people in Yingchen, and bluntly said that when he escorted Han Wang'an, he saw with his own eyes that the people of Yingchen still had the intention of going to Chu, and Qin attacked Chu, and Yingchen was afraid that something would change......
It's a pity that at that time, he didn't take Bai Yan's words to heart, which eventually led to the annihilation of 200,000 Qin soldiers and several captains.
Now, in Xianyang, Qin State, Li Xin not only has no shame to face the families of the 200,000 soldiers who died in battle, but also dare not see those clansmen who died in battle.
"This is Yan's nephew, Shu'er, call Uncle Youcheng, Uncle Yan!"
Bai Yan looked at Li Xin's appearance, and could sense that Li Xinzhong no longer had the vigor of the past, sighed, and did not mention it again, but looked at his nephew on the side.
Seeing the well-behaved and obedient nephew greeting Li Xin and Yang Yan, thinking that in the later generations, there would be no record of Li Xin after the unification of the Qin State, Bai Yan turned his head and glanced at Li Xin.
Bai Yan also hopes that after the unification of the world, Li Xin can have a good result.
In the army of Qin's iron cavalry.
Soon, an iron cavalry soldier hurriedly ran to Bai Yan to report, saying that the gate of Linzi City had been opened, and several elderly Qi old men came out, claiming to be the bridle wine and others of the Jixia School Palace, and wanted to ask to see them.
"Sacrificial wine?"
Bai Yan was a little surprised when he heard the words of the soldiers, in Bai Yan's heart, it may be that Tian Dan and other Qi clan relatives came to see him, or it may be that the prince is out of the city, and Tian Xie and Qi Xiang are no exception.
But I didn't expect that a person who went out of the city was actually those old men in the Jixia School Palace.
Thinking of this, Bai Yan couldn't help but turn his head and look at Wei Lao who was riding a horse behind him, Wei Lao had been in Wei Qi for many years, with Wei Lao's reputation, it was impossible for those old people in the school palace not to know each other, if they met, those old men would definitely know that Wei Lao was by his side.
"The old man avoids it!"
When Wei Lao saw Bai Yan's gaze, he didn't know Bai Yan's worries.
Looking at the mighty Qin State Iron Cavalry army in front of him, in fact, Wei Lao was also very surprised, it was actually those old immortals who came to see Bai Yan, but after thinking about it, Wei Lao soon guessed that it must be because of Tian Jin.
Today's Wei Lao doesn't want Xianyang's Qin King Yingzheng to know that he is by Bai Yan's side.
It's not that Wei Lao doesn't want to go to Xianyang, Qin State, to help Bai Yan, but that Wei Lao Tai knows his disciple's temperament, if he is not in Yanmen, Bai Yan will be too indecisive in many things.
Zhao Qiu's girl, if it was before Fang Cai, it would have reassured Wei Lao, after all, with that girl here, there was no need to worry about Bai Yan, but now that girl is ...... to Bai Yan
Wei Lao shook his head helplessly, turned around on horseback, and rode towards the plain in the distance.
"Huh?"
When Li Xin saw this scene, he looked at Bai Yan with a stunned expression, and then looked at the old man he didn't know, and was a little curious in his heart, who was the old man, why did he look at Bai Yan's appearance and respect the old man so much.
Even the brave generals of Yan Mao and Yan looked at the old man's gaze, which was the same.
However, Li Xin's doubts were not answered, and it didn't take long to see several elderly soldiers in the iron cavalry army behind him, under the leadership of several soldiers, walking towards Bai Yan while carrying their crotch uniforms.
Under the gaze of Yang Yan, Yan Mao and others, Bai Yan looked at the back of Wei Lao's departure, turned his head, and looked at the old men who came over.
As long as they are far away, with the impression that Wei Lao gave people in the past, now that Wei Lao is dressed, there is no need to worry about Wei Lao being seen by others.
………………………………
Xianyang, Qin State.
In the Lu family's mansion, under the gazebo, Tian Xian knelt and sat with a nervous face, breathing rapidly, looking at Lu Qi walking back and forth, his heart felt a lot better.
When my father came to Xianyang, no matter what happened, he would have Lu Qi on his back, and when he thought of this, Tian Xian was not so afraid.
"Why hasn't the smoke come yet?"
Lu Qi looked at Tian Xian's gaze, and on his fat face, it was called a panic.
If Tian Xian wants to pull Lu Qi on his back, then Lu Qi is also thinking that in the face of his uncle's anger, he must let Fei Yan block it no matter what, and his own flesh can't stand his uncle's anger.
Don't look at this is Lu Mansion, don't look at my grandfather as my uncle's father-in-law.
But Lu Qi knew what the consequences would be if his uncle was really angry......
Bai Yan is not there.
Non-smoking must be in front of their uncle with them.
"It's only been a long time, even if you ride a horse, you can't come so fast, it's useless to be in a hurry!"
Tian Xian listened to Lu Qi's urging, although he was also very anxious and flustered, but looking at Lu Qi's appearance, Tian Xian was comfortable, since Lu Qi returned to Xianyang, he was finally no longer alone.
And the reason why he teased Lu Qi was that Tian Xian was dissatisfied with Lu Qi on the way back, and he actually stayed in Yingchuan for so long.
Inside the city of Xianyang.
Just as Tian Xian and Lu Qi were in Lu Mansion, anxiously waiting for Tian Feiyan to arrive.
In the city, on the streets full of traffic and pedestrians, Tian Ding rode in the carriage, feeling the noisy and lively sound outside the carriage, and his expression was tense all the time on his majestic face.
The reason why he did not follow the officials of the Qin State to Xianyang, but concealed his whereabouts, and came to Xianyang City in such a hurry, Tian Dingwei was able to go to the Lu Mansion before going to see Yingzheng.
