Daqin Engineering Corps

"It is indeed the arrangement of the county lieutenant."

"The bandit will find a place."

This Xiangyun Inn is a famous inn in Handan, and the envoys who traveled to and from Zhao State all stayed here.

After the state of Zhao was destroyed and all the nobles were captured, the inn became state-owned.

The county lieutenant arranged for his relatives to take over the management, so even Zhang Xuan had some scruples.

But Zhang Xuan thought about it and said:

"No problem."

"This is an extraordinary period, even if we go to search the county lieutenant, he dare not speak."

"It's just that I have to be cautious..."

"Engineers don't have to worry about this, I have my own arrangements!"

Shen Bing bowed his hands and thanked: "In this way, there will be two or five hundred masters."

Shen Bing was actually a little curious about what "reason" Zhang Xuan would use to search, but Zhang Xuan didn't say anything and he couldn't ask more.

Secretly speaking, Zhang Xuan is quite comfortable with this aspect, so let him do it.

That night, Zhang Xuan took Shen Bing and others to patrol.

This is often the case.

Ever since Shen Bing and Zhang Xuan implemented the "leading the snake out of the hole" together, the two would go to inspect it every night.

There are not many people that Shen Bing can lead, only a few personal guards of Ren, and sometimes he will bring him with him.

Ren and Jiang have their own strengths.

If it is about fighting alone, Ren is definitely not Jiang's opponent.

But Ren inherited most of the advantages of the Qin army, that is, he can fight with his fellow soldiers.

In other words, he has the ability to command and deploy formations, and the five personal guards will enter and exit together at the same order.

It would be powerless to meet the six of them.

This may be the synergy in cold weapon operations.

No matter how heroic an individual is, as long as he is facing two people, it is "difficult to defeat four hands with two fists", let alone facing six people.

Shen Bing knew that something was going to happen tonight, so he also took his clothes with him.

There was no movement during the inspection all the way, the huge street was empty, only soldiers of the Qin Army patrolling back and forth.

The torches on the side of the street flickered in the evening wind, adding a bit of weirdness and desolation to the ancient city.

When he was about to reach Xiangyun Inn, Zhang Xuan patted Shen Bing on the shoulder and raised his head forward.

Shen Bing understood, and walked forward with big strides along with Zhang Xuan.

Suddenly, a few black shadows flashed faintly in the corners of the walls on both sides and made a little noise.

Zhang Xuan drew out his bronze sword with a clang, and shouted:

"Who committed the night?"

"Show yourself and beg for mercy, and I will save your life!"

……

Ren and the group rushed forward to protect Shen Bing and Zhang Xuan.

The surrounding Qin army also moved quickly, and when they heard the movement, they immediately surrounded them with their halberds.

But those few people were not willing to catch them without a fight, Hei Yingteng jumped up and fled to the depths of the alley.

Zhang Xuan pointed the bronze sword forward and ordered:

"Chasing, don't let these thieves escape!"

The soldiers responded in unison and followed the shadow.

Shen Bing looked in the direction where the black shadow was fleeing, wasn't it the Xiangyun Inn?

Then I understood what Zhang Xuan meant by "the reason".

Sure enough, Zhang Xuan smiled triumphantly at Shen Bing.

Shen Bing secretly gave Zhang Xuan a thumbs up.

What the hell, they all have their own strengths, what Shen Bing has been a headache in Zhang Xuan's hands is as simple as a child pretending to be a house.

It is conceivable that these black shadows must have fled into the inn or even broke in and disappeared without a trace.

It's not difficult to disappear, just change back to Qin Jun's dress and identity and mix with the soldiers who searched inside after entering.

At that time, even if there is a county lieutenant in charge of Xiangyun Inn, it will be difficult to say anything.

Otherwise, a bad thing would be to put on a hat harboring bandits...

Do you still want to be a county lieutenant?

No, this is not a question of dismissal, but a question of whether this little life is worth it.

Sure enough, when Zhang Xuan and Shen Bing arrived at the Xiangyun Inn, soldiers from the Qin army had already surrounded the inn.

A hundred generals stepped forward to report:

"Two to five hundred masters, I'll wait to see that bandit escape into the inn."

"The subordinates have made people guard all the exits, even if they have wings, it is difficult for them to fly!"

Chapter 1 Jing Ke

The shopkeeper came out in a hurry.

He even recognized Zhang Xuan, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said:

"Two or five hundred masters, I don't know that the night is coming..."

Zhang Xuan interrupted the shopkeeper with a "hum":

"Treasurer Wu, I ordered the soldiers to witness the Yeliu bandits fleeing into your inn."

"Do you know where they hide?"

Shopkeeper Wu was so frightened that his legs went limp when he heard it.

"Two to five hundred masters, I only heard a few strange noises in the backyard. I only thought it was animals making trouble, but I didn't know it was bandits..."

Zhang Xuan raised his hand to interrupt shopkeeper Wu, then waved his hand and ordered: "Search!"

All the soldiers responded and rushed into the inn with a murderous look.

They were not polite, they ransacked boxes and cabinets everywhere and made a fuss.

Shen Bing was not in a hurry, and followed the soldiers to search up layer by layer, but when he reached the third floor, he was blocked by several people.

The leader was the bearded man Shen Bing met at the top of the city. Shen Bing didn't show up at the time, so he didn't recognize him.

The bearded man cupped his hands and said:

"Everyone is polite, we are the envoys of the Yan Kingdom."

"The upper room on this floor is reserved by us, and there are always people guarding it."

"I can guarantee that there are no bandits here, if you go elsewhere..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Xuan unceremoniously pushed back:

"It doesn't matter what envoy you are."

"How can I, Zhang Xuan, be so easy to deceive?"

"The bandit might be sitting in your house!"

Zhang Xuan said that because he really didn't pay attention to the envoys of the Yan Kingdom.

He even believed that Shen Bing was right, these people were indeed acting suspiciously.

Otherwise, why didn't the envoy come sooner or later, why did he come to Handan at this time...

Did you come here to secretly learn waterwheel and rollover techniques?

Is it to confuse the people to take the opportunity to cause chaos?

Did they come to rescue the nobles of the Zhao Kingdom or pass on the news secretly?

……

In short, in the eyes of Qin soldiers, no country is a friendly army.

If there is one, it is Qi State: Qin State has been sending money to Qi State so that Qi State will not interfere in the struggle between Qin and other princes.

As expected, Qi State was obedient, and did not send reinforcements to other countries from the beginning to the end.

This is also one of the reasons why Qi State was finally destroyed.

Another reason is that some people in Qi state have seen gods on the sea... In fact, Qi state is near the sea, and fishermen saw mirages when they were fishing at sea and regarded it as a fairy mountain.

Out of awe of the gods, Qin Wang Yingzheng chose to destroy Qi in the end and also used a more moderate method: forced landing.

As for the country of Yan in front of him, who would take him seriously.

The big man with beard wanted to say something, but was pushed away by Zhang Xuan.

This big man is also a temper tantrum, as soon as his face changed, he and his subordinates drew their swords to guard the corridor.

At this moment, a voice sounded in the room:

"General Fei, it doesn't matter if they search for it!"

The big man with the beard replied, and then signaled his subordinates to put away their swords.

But Zhang Xuan didn't give in at all, when he stepped forward, he intentionally pushed the big man with bearded beard again, only to turn his face blue with anger, but there was nothing he could do.

Shen Bing and Zhang Xuan led a few soldiers to open the door, and saw two men in brown clothes playing chess with oil lamps in front of the case.

Shen Bing guessed that these two people should be Jing Ke and Nie Gai.

The momentum was really extraordinary, when everyone came in, they didn't even glance to the side, they just played chess by themselves.

One of the men with a mustache on his mouth said calmly and calmly:

"Everyone, please do your own thing, I won't get up to greet you when the chess is in full swing."

Shen Bing glanced around and saw a wooden box and a bundle next to the case at a glance.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the mustache suddenly raised his head and looked at Shen Bing, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Shen Bing suddenly realized that he had made a mistake:

How can you search with a purpose as soon as you come in?

When he stopped his eyes as soon as he found the point, didn't he tell the other party that he was not here to find the bandits but meant something else?

That mustache must be Jing Ke, his reflexes and alertness are nothing but Shen Bing's tiny movements, and he feels threatened.

But at this moment, Shen Bing couldn't care less about it. He glanced at Jing Ke vigilantly, then took a step back and asked:

"What's in the wooden box and the bundle?"

Jing Ke replied word by word:

"It's a generous gift from me to King Qin, do you want to have a look first?"

"It doesn't matter to me, but if there is any mistake, you may not be able to bear it if you wait for the king!"

When Zhang Xuan heard this, he immediately became timid.

He can ignore the envoy of Yan Kingdom, but the generous gift to the king... It is indeed like what Jing Ke said, if there is any mistake, he can't afford it.

How could Shen Bing be intimidated by Jing Ke? His face darkened, and he said:

"Could it be that if you look at it, it will disappear?"

"If there is any mistake, I, Shen Bing, will take care of it alone, so you don't need to worry about it."
