When Han Yi received the message, his first reaction was not to be angry, but to directly ask, "How many people were injured?"

The little soldier who was sent back to deliver the news was stunned for a moment. He was already prepared to be held accountable, and he even organized the language to describe the process. All my courage was gone.

Seeing Xiaobing's eyes turn red, Han Yi was anxious: "There are heavy casualties?"

Xiaobing hurriedly wiped away his tears while shaking his head and said, "No... just a dozen brothers were hurt."

Only then did Han Yi breathe a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but said angrily, "Then why are you crying?"

Xiaobing didn't dare to speak, he didn't dare to tell Han Yi that he was ready to die when he came to report.

When they left, they boasted that Haikou would be able to successfully complete the mission, but now the mission has failed. Zhongshuling must be very angry, and those who go back to report the letter in anger may be pushed out and cut down——in the story of Mr. Storyteller That's what it says.

Unexpectedly, their boss didn't get angry and wanted to kill him, but asked everyone about the casualties first.

It feels as if this powerful person sees them not just as tools, but as human beings.

Xiao Bing bowed his head in embarrassment to apologize, and Han Yi asked calmly, "What's going on, let me explain in detail."

The mission has already failed, and it's useless to be angry. Anyway, the mission this time is not that important. At the beginning, Han Yi just pretended to save if he could, and if he couldn't, then forget it.

The little soldier stammered and said, "We...we caught up with the team that escorted Xiang Yan, and almost cleaned up those who escorted him. As a result...unexpectedly, a group of people rushed out from the middle of the road and rushed to Xiang Yan. Yan was snatched away, at that time... At that time, Long Baijiang didn't let us continue chasing him, saying that he looked familiar."

Han Yi was a little surprised: "Look familiar? Who is it?"

Xiao Bing said: "General Long Bai said that he seems to be Qin Jun too."

Han Yi was a little surprised. Someone in Qin Jun wanted to attack Xiang Yan?

But if you think about it, if Princess Heyang can inquire about the news, naturally others will also be able to inquire about the news.

Only those who have this ability, after thinking about it, are only Meng Jiajun.

If it is the Meng family army, it is a very wise decision for Long Qi to choose to retreat. Although the troops he belongs to are different, they are all friendly troops anyway, so they can't fight with friendly troops, right?

At that time, if you really beat yourself to death, what should you say when you are held accountable?

Han Yi asked again: "Did the other party pursue?"

The soldier shook his head.

Han Yi guessed that the other party might not be able to figure out the identity of Long Qi and them, because Han Yi was afraid that people would know that he had asked Xiang Yan to be rescued, and later said that he had private contacts with the generals of Chu State, although it might not be harmful to him. Nothing hurts, but it's also annoying.

It is precisely because of this that they went there in plain clothes, and the other party might not be able to tell where they belonged from the clothes.

Han Yi asked, "They didn't reveal their identities either?"

The little soldier stammered: "At that time... General Long Bai led us to run a little fast, so..."

Even if the other party wants to negotiate, they may not be able to catch up. The most important thing is that they have planned it before. If something happens, they will run away and agree on a place to gather.

You have to believe that these people who have been in the rivers and lakes may not be good at other skills, but they must be good at running.

After hearing this, Han Yi also couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't know whether to praise him for being cautious or call him timid.

But think about it, Long Qie must have been very nervous leading the team out for the first time, for fear that there would be too many casualties.

Han Yi said, "Okay, go back and tell Long Qi to find a safe place to camp and wait for orders."

The soldier breathed a sigh of relief, saluted and retreated immediately.

After thinking about it, Han Yi wrote a letter to Meng Tian. Although this would reveal that the team was his business, his relationship with the Meng family has always been good, and the Meng family is not the kind of person who breaks their mouths.

After receiving the letter, Montaigne sighed and said, "What are you afraid of? What are you afraid of? Tell me what you should do now."

As he spoke, he threw the letter to a general beside him. The man picked up the letter and read it carefully, and he couldn't help being a little surprised: "That team is really Zhongshuling's subordinate?"

After asking, he thought for a while and clicked his tongue and said, "It doesn't feel like Zhong Shuling's character, it doesn't look like the soldiers he brought out."

Montaigne shouted angrily: "Ren Qing! What time is it, are you still in the mood to discuss this matter?"

Renqing put down the letter and said: "Cousin, what are you so afraid of doing? I didn't do anything to that team at the time. If it doesn't work, I will come to explain it myself. This is a misunderstanding."

Montaigne had a toothache on his face: "Do you think I'm talking about this? You said it was a misunderstanding, and Zhongshu is not an unreasonable person. Why would he entangle you in this matter? I'm talking about you He snatched away the person he wanted, and lost it!"

Ren Qing rubbed his nose and said in embarrassment, "I didn't expect Xiang Yan to be so cunning."

Montaigne shook his head: "If he is not cunning, how could he become the general of Chu State?"

"He has a good background." Ren Qingqing said something of course.

Montaigne said: "You have a good background, have you become a general?"

Ren Qing immediately stopped talking. Although he thought that sooner or later he could become the leader of an army, the position of general...he dared not think about it.

Because the current general is his uncle Meng Ao, and Meng Ao is the god of war in the entire Qin country, no one can compare to him, this is the thinking of all the juniors of the Meng family and the Meng family's in-laws.

If anyone had to be compared with him, it would probably be that Mr. Jingyue.

Because Mr. Yue has never lost in any battle, the only thing lacking is probably that the number of battles is too small, and every time he wins, he looks so easy and freehand that everyone ignores the difficulty of that war.

However, Meng Ao has always valued him very much, and reminded him more than once in front of the juniors not to conflict with Mr. Yue Yue.

Ren Qing was older than Han Yi, once asked Meng Ao why he valued Han Yi so quickly, he didn't think Meng Ao shouldn't value it, but Meng Ao valued it differently.

Everyone was afraid of Han Yi's influence on the king, but Meng Ao kept telling them that Han Yi didn't lead troops to avoid suspicion, otherwise few generals in the army could match him.

At that time Meng Ao just said: "He is still young."

Ren Qing didn't understand at that time, and felt that Meng Ao's answer seemed to have nothing to do with his question.

Later, when Han Yi blew up Yanwang City, Ren Qing felt that he had figured it out: youth means great potential, and it also means full of courage.

Otherwise, who would dare to blow up King Yan's city!

From that day on, Ren Qing really recognized the difference between him and Han Yi, but he didn't have much chance to deal with Han Yi, and he stayed in Meng's army all the time.

In the end, he didn't expect that the first time he had to deal with was so embarrassing. He cut off the person Han Yi wanted to take away, and even lost him.

Ren Qing touched his chin in embarrassment and said, "Then... what should I do now? How about I come to ask for a crime?"

Montaigne was a little surprised: "Aren't you talking angry?"

Ren Qing said helplessly: "If it's someone else, forget it. He didn't talk to us at first. We don't know and we can't blame us, but it's not...he is special."

Han Yi has the ability to be unreasonable, but Ren Qing can't make him reason.

Montaigne said angrily, "Don't let us, who did you tell when you went out to rob prisoners? Your courage is really getting bigger and bigger."

Ren Qing said in a low voice: "I don't think there is something strange about it. The king of Chu arrested Xiang Yan, why did he send him to the state of Wei?"

Montaigne also felt something strange, he thought for a while and asked: "Do you think Zhongshu will know the reason?"

Ren Qing shook his head: "I don't know either, why don't you... ask?"

Montaigne laughed angrily: "You are brave enough to go to Zhongshu to inquire about information."

Ren Qing giggled twice: "Although everyone is afraid of Zhongshu, I think he is quite reasonable. You see, he didn't ask the teacher to ask the crime."

Montaigne sighed and said, "Let's go."

Ren Qing froze for a moment: "Huh?"

Montaigne glared at him and said, "Ah, what? Go and explain to Zhongshu. It's not enough to make an apology, but you still have to explain clearly."

Ren Qing immediately said: "Don't, don't, don't go, I'll just go."

Meng Tian frowned and was about to say something, Ren Qing said: "Strictly speaking, this matter is my own private action, so don't have anything to do with the Meng family."

Just as Han Yi refused to let Long and they reveal their identities, Ren Qing was also worried that Han Yi would get involved with the Meng family army.

Even if Han Yi doesn't pursue it, what if someone with a heart gets the news and wants to expand it to deal with Meng's army?

It's not easy for the Meng family's army now, the tree is big and attracts the wind, and the people of the Meng family are very low-key now.

Montaigne also understood what Ren Qing meant, and said in silence for a while, "Then be careful, as long as you don't say anything that makes Zhong Shuling angry, he is quite kind."

Ren Qing asked seriously: "Then what kind of words are easy to make him angry?"

Montaigne: ...

He really doesn't know this. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that most of the reasons for Han Yi's anger are because of the king. Since he succeeded the king and secured his position, he seems to be seldom angry.

But don't tell Ren Qing about this matter. The relationship between Wang Shang and Zhong Shuling is a well-known secret among the high-level officials, but only the high-level people know about it. The family members of the high-level people don't know, and no one dares to talk nonsense. .

Montaigne finally had no choice but to say: "Stop talking, just ask you what you say."

Ren Qing: ...

Ren Qing honestly went to Han Yi's temporary mansion. When he entered, he was a little surprised. It was different from what he had imagined. He originally thought that the floor of the entire courtyard would be paved with gold. I especially like gold.

When Han Yi heard that Ren Qing was coming, he was taken to Xiaohua Hall.

Seeing Han Yi, Ren Qing hurriedly pleaded guilty and said: "I didn't know that Zhongshu's subordinates had military orders, so I still look at Haihan for the abruptness."

Han Yi said with a smile: "Those who don't know are not guilty, Captain Ren, please sit down."

Ren Qing was slightly relieved, she looked very kind indeed.

After he sat down honestly, he heard Han Yi ask, "Where is Xiang Yan now?"

Ren Qing whispered: "He ran away."

Han Yi was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said: "Don't worry, he is your prisoner. I just want to ask about the old man."

Seeing that Han Yi didn't believe it, Ren Qing quickly explained: "I didn't lie to you, I really ran away."

Han Yi was a little surprised: "Run away? How did you run away?"

According to the news sent by Long Qie, they beat up almost all the escorts at that time, and then Ren Qing came out with someone to clean up the rest of them, and then took Xiang Yan away.

In this situation, how did Xiang Yan run away?

Ren Qing explained: "At that time, we wanted to retreat with Xiang Yan, but another team of hundreds of people rushed out on the way, and they also had eagle archers. I didn't want to cause too much damage, so I planned to retreat. But those people followed us all the time, and later told Yan that if we don’t let him go, those people won’t let us go.”

Han Yi asked, "So you let Xiang Yan go?"

Ren Qing's face was a little feverish: "I also learned about the route of escorting Xiang Yan not long ago, so I came up with such a strategy on the spur of the moment, because I knew it too late, so I took my own initiative and led the team to snatch people. I don't want to cause too much loss..."

Han Yi understood, because arresting Xiang Yan was not Ren Qing's mission, nor was he given such a mission by his superiors, so he lost him if he lost him, but if he caused heavy losses to the team because of his self-assertion, Even if he catches Xiang Yan, it's useless.

What's more, if it was the former Xiang Yan, it might still be valuable. Now Xiang Yan is no longer a general of the Chu State, and everything that can be changed after the King of Chu takes over will definitely change, so the value of providing information to Xiang Yan is useless.

This is also the reason why Ren Qing released Xiang Yan so happily.

Han Yi said: "In other words, Xiang Yan knows the existence of that team, so it should be that he has ambushed there and prepared to rescue him."

Ren Qing nodded and said: "Indeed, on the entire escort road, only there is the most suitable place for ambushes."

Because it was suitable, Long Qie chose that place, Ren Qing chose that place, and even Xiang Yan chose that place.

Han Yi asked, "What does General Montaigne mean?"

Ren Qing froze for a moment, Montaigne... Montaigne didn't say anything.

He hesitated and said, "Zhongshu means..."

Han Yi suddenly smiled, this is kicking the ball back.

However, he was not angry and just said patiently: "I just want to ask General Montaigne if he still wants to arrest Xiang Yan?"

After hearing this, Ren Qing immediately said: "No, our main task next is to rescue the general, so..."

Han Yi was a little surprised: "Haven't you shot it yet?"

He had already scared the Wei army away before, and Montaigne directly pushed the battle line forward a lot. Why hasn't it been defeated for so long?

You must know that he will definitely find a way to inform Meng Ao, and Meng Ao will cooperate with them internally and externally when he finds out, it shouldn't be delayed for so long.

Ren Qing hesitated for a while before saying honestly: "I heard that the general was seriously injured and unable to command. The generals under him can only stick to it and dare not send troops at will."

Han Yi frowned slightly, and immediately understood Ren Qing's meaning. Meng Ao's generals were afraid that not only would they not defeat the enemy after going out of the city to meet the enemy, but they would give the enemy an opportunity to attack the city, so even if they didn't move Willing to take risks.

Under such circumstances, Montaigne can only rely on himself to fight against the Wei-Chu coalition forces. To be honest, it is quite difficult.

Han Yi thought for a while and said, "I'll send someone to help you."

Ren Qing was overjoyed after hearing this: "Thank you Zhongshu!"

Han Yi was ready to be questioned by Ren Qing, but he didn't expect Ren Qing to have a beaming face without any questions, as if he had rescued Meng Ao.

He thought about Ren Qing's identity that he had seen before, and it was said that he was Meng Ao's favorite nephew, so it seems... that can be explained.

After Ren Qing was happy, he asked cautiously: "Then...does Zhongshu need our cooperation?"

Han Yi shook his head and said, "No, my men's fighting methods are different from yours, and there may be problems if we accommodate each other. However, after the arrangement, I will ask them to go to General Montaigne to let them know how to beat you at that time." Figure it out."

Ren Qing suddenly asked in his heart, "Zhongshu...wouldn't go to battle in person, would he?"

Han Yi said, "I have other things to do."

Ren Qing immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It is not an exaggeration to say that the battlefield here is a meat grinder. Too many soldiers died here, and no one, even generals, can guarantee that they will survive.

Although Montaigne and Ren Qing seemed to be very relaxed, they had arranged all the family affairs when they came here, and they were ready to die in battle.

This is what Meng Ao taught them: there is no luck on the battlefield.

So after Han Yi arrived here, he didn't say anything except that he had never attacked the camp. They hoped that Han Yi would not come out easily.

After Ren Qing left, Han Yi directly called Chu Fei over and said, "How is your manpower going?"

Chu Fei was full of confidence: "Don't worry, Mr. Lang, I have already selected everything, and I will be able to practice according to your requirements from tomorrow."

As Chu Fei spoke, he felt a little sympathetic to himself and the five hundred brothers. He read the training plan, and everything else was fine, but he felt a headache from those disciplines.

But he didn't dare to say anything, Duke Yue's personal soldiers should be different, if they were as loose as ordinary soldiers, wouldn't they be the ones who lost his family's lord when they went out?

Han Yi nodded and said, "Choose a few who are not afraid of heights. Later, I will match you with a flying kite and some Mohist disciples, and go to Montaigne."

Chu Fei was slightly taken aback: "Go to General Montaigne? What are you doing? Go to the front line?"

Han Yi said: "Yes or no, I will give you something later, and you go over and tell Montaigne that you are responsible for opening the gap for them, and let Montaigne and the others handle the rest."

Chu Fei nodded and said, "Okay!"

After Han Yi finished speaking, he asked someone to fetch some wooden boxes, and he said to Chu Fei: "For these few, whichever camp Montaigne asked you to fight, you can take a flying kite to that camp, light the thread on it and Just throw it down."

Chu Fei understood: "Mr. Lang wants to hack their camp?"

Han Yi paused and said, "It's not me, it's you."

Chu Fei giggled and said, "Understood, but everyone knows about Lang Jun's ability, so I'm afraid we can't cover it well."

Han Yi is a little tired, I put the truth in front of your eyes, you won't believe it?

When will this incomprehensible thing be metaphysics?

He didn't bother to explain, and let Chu Fei leave with a wave of his hand.

Then he called Long Qi over again, Long Qi looked a little frustrated, he was full of confidence, but the mission failed.

While he could argue, a mission failure is a failure, and there's nothing to explain.

Han Yi looked at him and said, "Go, find out where Xiang Yan is, I want to know what he is going to do."

Since Xiang Yan has the ability to arrange people to rescue him, he will never sit still. Everything he has is in Chu State, will he be willing to hide his name and survive?

Even if he survived, he would not be able to take revenge.

So now he must be thinking about how to overthrow King Chu's rule, so he can't be too far away from here.

What's more, according to what Long Qie said, Xiang Yan's condition was not very good at that time, and he had to take a break for both emotional and rational reasons.

After hearing this, Long Qi cheered up a bit before saying: "Yes! This time, I will definitely live up to my mission!"

Han Yi didn't say anything. He didn't blame Long Qi, but he didn't encourage him any more. His heart softened because there was no punishment for failure. If he encouraged him more, the team might become lazy in the future.

Long Qi left with his people, and Han Yi didn't know what method he would use to find Xiang Yan.

Anyway, let Han Yi think for himself, he can't think of it.

However, what surprised him was that Long Qi actually found Xiang Yan's trace, but did not arrest him directly.

When Long Qi came back to report, he whispered, "Xiang Yan has a team of two to three hundred people under him, so I didn't dare to charge."

Han Yi said: "Find out their rules, and find time to take them out."

As soon as he finished speaking, Long Qi's subordinates sent someone to send them information: "Xiang Yan suddenly led people out of the camp, all the way west, as if they were going to Sangdian County, which is the closest to them."

Han Yi raised his eyebrows. Sangdian County is next to Heyang and belongs to the territory of Qin State, but Qin State's dominance over here is not particularly strong. After all, border counties often change hands, so sometimes Everyone didn't particularly care.

Han Yi made people keep an eye on Xiang Yan, but he didn't expect Xiang Yan to stay in an inn in Sangdian County.

Han Yi thought about it for a while and decided to go there in person, but Long Qi said worriedly, "My lord, leave this matter to me, and I will definitely bring them back."

Han Yi shook his head and said, "No, when you get to the county seat, you can't do it easily. If you can't bear the responsibility of the county magistrate, I will go there in person. What are you afraid of in our own land?"

Long Qi didn't say anything and could only lead people to follow Han Yi.

It was already evening when they arrived there, and the scouts placed here by Longqie came over and reported, "My lord, Xiang Yan and a man wearing a black hat just entered the private room of a restaurant."

Han Yi raised his eyebrows: "It turns out that he really has someone in Daqin, let's go, let's go meet."

At this moment, Han Yi suddenly had a bad taste: I wonder if Xiang Yan would be surprised to see him?

After he brought people into the restaurant, he went to negotiate with the boss with Long Qi's men, and he went straight to the second floor, had someone push open the door of the private room, and said with a smile as he walked in, "Long time no see, To the General..."

His smile froze instantly after seeing the situation in the private room, and naturally he couldn't say the rest.

The two people sitting facing each other in the private room turned their heads to look at him together, and one of them shouted in surprise, "Ah Zheng?"
