Chapter 158 Fighting the White Tyrant (1)
(School season starts, we are busy recruiting students and are busy with students. We will update the period, please forgive me!)
At the end of the interrogation, the Hu man finally confessed that there was a rubbing of treasure map hidden on the leader.
There is a treasure map, Li Jian and Wei Huo will naturally not let it go, and Yan Saner jumped even more excitedly. When he left Xianyang City for the first time, he encountered such an exciting thing, and immediately felt that life was much more exciting than the Xixiang Tower.
According to Li Jian's intention, he reported the news directly to Emperor Qin II. But Wei Huo stopped Li Jian's actions.
He believed that this matter should not be alarmed too early. Because the truth of this matter is still uncertain, if it is reported to Xianyang Palace rashly, it would be a great contribution, but if it is fake, it would not be so easy to say.
Li Jian knew that Wei Huo was right and put away the treasure map found by the Hu leader. Naturally, the two Hu people could not keep it.
After killing one by one, the three of them took a short rest, led the nine horses of the Hu people, and rushed to Dingtao County beside Sanchuan County before the sky was about to brighten.
Dingtao borders the current Zhao State and is a remote tyrant with Linji.
In the secret order, the two of them had known for a long time that Wang Ben's army had already headed for Dingtao.
Under the instigation of the counselors sent by Li Si, the original king of Zhao State had already shown signs of favoring the Qin Dynasty. But now he was killed by Li Liang, the new Zhao King Zhao Xie took office and changed his course, and became hostile to the Qin Dynasty again.
King Xie Wen of Zhao used Zhang Er and Wu Ze appointed Chen Yu as the general, and Bai Qi's descendant Bai Ba as the vanguard, leading the elite Zhao State troops to directly launch an encirclement and suppression of Li Liang. When the war was not careful, it burned to the edge of Sanchuan County of Qin.
Li Liang can be said to have destroyed the temporary peace of the Qin and Zhao State, and stirred the soup that was originally to stew some flavor into a ball.
But Li Liang sent a signal to the Qin Dynasty for help, but the Qin side had to save it for many reasons.
Now there is a Li Liang mixed with Qin and Zhao, and the relationship is very subtle.
It takes two days to go from Xianyang to Dingtao.
Now the two of them have taken Yan Saner, who can't ride a horse, which has greatly delayed their itinerary.
Yan Saner transferred several times on Li Jian and Wei Huo's horseback, and finally couldn't help it and said, "Brother, third brother, hehe, you see how strong the nine horses behind are. Why don't you teach me to ride a horse? So we can hurry up."
Horse riding is not that easy for novices to learn.
But Yan Saner proposed it, and Li Jian and Wei Huo Yiyi thought it was right. This brother of his family may have to make a living in the army in the future and would not be able to ride horses to fight.
After understanding this section, Li Jian nodded, and Wei Huo personally taught Yan Saner how to ride a horse.
Wei Huo Sect was very strict. Yan Saner was smart, but she didn't learn slowly. In just two hours, this kid was bold and dared to run away.
In this way, the pace of traveling is getting faster.
Li Jian and Wei Huo knew that Qin and Zhao started the war were just in front of him, so they kept going straight to Dingtao. Yan Saner was just a teenager. Although she was born in the U.S., she had never suffered such bumps and hardships.
Two days later, when Yan Saner saw the head of Dingtao City, she felt a little frigid. When Li Jian and Wei Huo entered Dingtao City, Yan Saner fell ill.
Li Jian, Wei and Huo brothers quickly called the best military doctor, arranged Yan Saner's residence first, found a personal guard, and was responsible for boiling medicine and taking care of the little brother. Then they hurried to the general's mansion established by Wang Ben in Dingtao County.
They returned to Dingtao, which was already half over Shen Shi. At this moment, there was no one else in Wang Ben's general's mansion. However, from the faces of the personal soldiers standing around, the two of them had already noticed something unhappy recently.
When Li Jian returned to the army, he immediately returned to his cold and arrogant appearance. Wei Huo was still smiling and very easy-going.
Seeing the heavy atmosphere in the Supervisor's Mansion, Wei Huo pulled Li Jian and signaled the elder brother to wait for a while. He lifted his arms and ran aside, and then ran back with a smile.
"Brother, I finally got it right. Mr. Wang Ben was worried and had already cursed several groups of generals and captains away." Wei Huo squeezed his eyes and smiled.
"What's the situation?" Li Jian looked cold, but he had long wanted to know the answer.
Wei Huo lowered his voice and said, "In Linji County ahead, Zhao State sent a vanguard officer to stop our army's way. Wang Ben, the old coach, photographed several vanguards, but were all defeated by the vanguard officers of Zhao State. Several unlucky generals directly made the man's gun and died."
When Li Jian heard this, Jian frowned and said nothing more.
Wei Huoze sighed and said, "It seems that he is in a hurry to call you and me back this time, I am afraid it is for the sake of this pioneer of Zhao State Bai Ba."
"It's good to know for a while, to see if he is really powerful." Li Jian had a cold face. He looked down on those generals who lost their heads the most.
The two of them followed the steps of the General's Mansion and passed the front yard. They saw that in the tall Mingtang behind them, Old Wang Ben was looking down at the table with his brows frowned.
In front of Wang Ben, there was a partial map mainly of Sanchuan County, Shangdang County and Handan County. Between Dingtao and Shangdang County, Wang Ben marked a route of march, but this line was cut in half by a line coming out of Linji.
Wang Ben just stared at the cut off place and frowned without saying a word.
"See Mr. Wang!" Li Jian and Wei Huo entered the mansion of the general and worshiped Wang Ben first according to the rules.
Old General Wang Ben did not care about these false gifts, and waved his hand and scolded: "But I hope you two little kids will come back. If you don't come back, I will go to the battle in person for a while. The descendant of Wu'an Jun will be in the air."
Before the two of them could speak, Wang Ben cursed Li Liang first, then calmed down and said, "You don't understand the situation yet. Now the emperor ordered us to march northward to Shangdang County and rescue Li Liang's son who was besieged there by Zhao's army."
"Here." Wang Ben pressed his hand hard on the Linji area and said, "We have cut off our connection with Li Liang. If we want to rescue Li Liang, we must break through Linji's obstacles."
Seeing that Li Jian and Wei Huo's expressions remained unchanged, Wang Ben nodded secretly and said, "I have sent out a vanguard without a road. These people were all killed in front of the army during the battle between Bai Ba. They lost my face of Wang's army and the face of Da Qin. Now that you two are back, let's look at this map, how can we defeat Bai Ba and enter Shangdang."
"How is Li Liang's situation?" Wei Huo thought about it and asked.
Wang Ben hates the name Li Liang the most now, but he has to tell him truthfully: "They are trapped in Shangdang, and have no worries about food and clothing. It is said that even if they persist behind closed doors, they can last for a year or two."
Wei Huo nodded and said, "That's great. If they could last for a year or two in Shangdang, we would not be in a hurry to rescue Li Liang. We just need to send someone to tell Li Liang that we have started a war with the people of Zhao and let him persevere.
As for Linji, it is just an isolated city that penetrates deep into the border of our Great Qin. As long as they control their important food channels, they will not worry about the Baiba Buqi City escaping."
