Qin Gong

Chapter 90
Old General Teng and other generals in the study couldn't figure out why Baiyu's cavalry army in Yangcheng suddenly left Yangcheng.

But right now.

Old General Teng knew that Bai Yu's poisoning could no longer be hidden, so he naturally wanted to report the incident to Xianyang.

The Qin army was attacking the new city before, and it could be said that they were worried about affecting the morale of the army, and it could also be said that Bai Yu was worried about the supply of food and grass, so there were many reasons.

Now the news has spread to Xincheng.

Whatever you say must be reported to Xianyang.

"I will report to Xianyang first."

Old General Teng said to the generals, then turned and walked towards the desk.

Hu Jin and several other generals watched Old General Teng write the bamboo slips, and did not leave in a hurry, but stood in the study.

The new city was breached, and then Xinzheng, the capital of Han, was about to be attacked. Many things needed to be decided by General Teng, and it didn't take long for General Teng to write bamboo slips to report Bai Yu's affairs to Xianyang.

"With Sima Xing around, the king should not order someone to change his general."

"Probably not. Changing generals in wartime will make the army's morale unstable."

"However, I heard that Meng Tian, ​​the son of Meng Wu, has already joined the army. Maybe he will come to Yangcheng to lead the army to practice."

After Old General Teng left, several generals discussed with each other.

They knew that, fortunately, before Bai Yu fell into a coma, Sima Xing was sent to Yangcheng. Now that Sima Xing had been in Yangcheng for a few days, generally speaking, Xianyang would not change generals when he heard about this.

But things are not certain.

They all know the position of the Meng family in the court and the position in the king's heart.

Now that Meng Ao's grandson and Meng Wu's son Meng Tian has joined the army, it is not ruled out that Meng Tian will come to lead the army. Although the possibility is small, it is impossible.

Inside the study.

Old General Teng was writing bamboo slips at his desk when he suddenly heard a voice.

"General Teng!"

Hu came in before Old General Teng, thought for a while, and bowed his hands.

Old General Teng heard this and looked up at Hu Jin.

Seeing Hu Jin in a dilemma, old General Teng was not surprised, and even the other generals in the study were not surprised either.

The Bai family and the Hu family are family friends, and Bai Yu and Hu Jin have a life-and-death relationship.

So looking at Hu Jin's appearance now, they all knew why in their hearts.

Hu Jin looked at Old General Teng, and knew that Old General Teng hadn't reported in a hurry before, and he personally ordered Sima Xing to return to Yangcheng. He shouldn't say anything now.

But thinking of Bai Yu.

Hu Jin decided to keep his face, and begged Old General Teng to speak for Bai Yu and Sima Xing in the bamboo slips.

But just when Hu Jin decided to speak.

Suddenly, a Qin soldier hurried into the study outside the door.

"Report, report to the general, the cavalry army, has arrived outside the city."

After Qin Zu came to Hu Jin's side, he cupped his hands to Old General Teng and said.

heard.

Old General Teng looked at Qin Zu.

When the other generals heard the news, they also looked at each other. Just now they were discussing why the iron cavalry in Yangcheng didn't follow the food and supplies, but left Yangcheng alone.

Right now, Qin Zu came to report that Yangcheng's cavalry and iron army had arrived in Xincheng.

"Report!"

At this time, another Qin soldier hurried into the study.

"Report, General, outside the mansion, Doctor Bai Yan is asking to see you!"

Qin Zu cupped his hands to Old General Teng and said.

Hu Jin and several other generals were a little surprised when they heard that Bai Yan was asking for an audience outside the mansion.

The cavalry army has just arrived in Xincheng.

Bai Yan came to see him?

"Let him in!"

Old General Teng said, looking at the bamboo slips in his hand, for some reason, he vaguely guessed that the reason why Bai Yu's cavalry of the Bai family left Yangcheng before was probably related to Bai Yan.

outside the mansion.

Bai Yan led the horse, followed by several cavalry officers and soldiers.

Originally going south from Wanfeng as expected, it should be more than enough to catch up with the food and supplies, but they forgot that when the pawns were escorting the food and supplies, they were also constantly consuming food and the speed of consumption far exceeded Bai Yan's expectations.

That's why it almost didn't catch up.

Fortunately, when the food and supplies finally arrived in Xincheng, the iron cavalry army also rushed to Xincheng.

Bai Yan felt that if Qin State hadn't seized Bashu before, Qin State might not be able to bear the burden of continuous military conquests in the past few years.

It's no wonder that the Battle of Changping in the past, which lasted for three years, not only emptied the Zhao State, but also exhausted all the reserves of the Qin State.

waited a long time.

Footsteps were heard in the mansion.

Bai Yan looked, and then he saw the Qin soldier who had gone to report earlier, and asked him to see Old General Teng.

Bai Yan handed over the horse to the cavalry officer, and then followed the Qin soldier into the mansion.

Inside the study.

After Bai Yan entered, he saw General Hu Jin and several other generals besides Old General Teng.

"Bai Yan, I pay my respects to General Teng."

Bai Yan saluted Old General Teng.

"Don't be too polite!"

Old General Teng looked at the young man in front of him, and remembered that when he was in the Yangcheng mansion in the past, the young man stood aside silently after talking with him for a few words.

See you now.

I'm afraid there must be something to tell him.

"But something?"

Old General Teng asked.

Several generals looked at Bai Yan, and they couldn't help showing a trace of regret in their eyes.

They all had a crush on the boy.

However, Bai Yu was assassinated and poisoned, so he didn't give the young man too much time, otherwise, when the young man has enough titles to control the Bai clan's iron cavalry, he will surely become a mighty general in the future.

It's a pity, it's a pity, right now they are all curious about why Bai Yan came to Xincheng suddenly, and then asked to see Old General Teng.

Hu Jin looked at Bai Yan, thinking that General Teng was about to pass the news of Bai Yu's poisoning back to Xianyang, his eyes flashed with worry.

"General, after my uncle was poisoned, he ordered Bai Yan to escort the grain and grass. Previously, Bai Yan guessed that the Han army would raid the grain and grass halfway, so he led the army of iron cavalry to leave Yangcheng."

Bai Yan spoke slowly.

In the study room, General Teng, Hu Jin, and several other generals were not surprised when they heard Bai Yan's words. How could Sima Xing return to Yangcheng?

But when they heard the back, Old General Teng, Hu Jin and several other generals suddenly opened their eyes wide.

Before that, they had always wondered why the iron cavalry army left Yangcheng, and the food and supplies arrived in Xincheng. They didn't think much about it, and they were all thinking about Baiyu's poisoning and they had to report it to Xianyang. Army did not raid, or did not raid successfully, or
At this time they remembered that when the general reported just now, he didn't seem to mention that the pawns were attacked by surprise, resulting in many casualties, or that the food and grass were damaged.

Inside the study.

Several generals looked at each other, even Hu Jin seemed to have a premonition, looking at Bai Yan, his eyes were full of surprise and anticipation.
