When Bai Yan helped their branch seize the Zhongli clan, they had no choice but to surrender to Bai Yan.

Later, the news of Li Xin's defeat came, followed by Xiang Yan and Jing Qi, who had already commanded the Chu army and wanted to besiege Bai Yan and all the Qin troops in the east of Chu. When they got the news at that time, they were filled with despair and despair.

At this time, they had even made preparations to let the tribesmen leave immediately if Bai Yan was defeated, and the two brothers stayed behind to resist the Chu army with Bai Yan.

Unexpectedly, Bai Yan gave them a huge surprise, pulling them out of their despair.

Xiang Yan and Jing Qi's plan to besiege Bai Yan in the east of Chu not only failed, but Bai Yan used the Qin army to rebel, and took advantage of the eagerness of Chu generals Jing Qi and Chang Wenjun to lead troops to ambush the Chu army.

At present, they have successfully killed Jing Qi and Chang Wenjun.

Faced with Bai Yan's great victory, and also killed Jing's Jing Qi, whom they always feared when thinking about it, how could the two brothers not go to congratulate him, even though it was already late at night.

"Go! Remember to bring more gifts to General Bai Yan!"

"Yes, yes! You two should go quickly to congratulate General Bai Yan on such a great victory. You can tell General Bai that tomorrow we can hold a banquet to celebrate General Bai at Zhongli's residence!"

Whether it was Zhongli Hao's father or other elders in the clan, they all nodded when they heard Zhonglihao and Zhonglichuan's words. It seemed that they were elders, but in fact, if the Zhongli clan had important matters, it was the two brothers Zhonglihao and Zhonglihao.

People decide.

After all, it was the two brothers Zhongli and Hao who kept running around and persevering that their clan could have this day.

In the main hall.

The two brothers Zhonglihao nodded and quickly turned around to leave. However, at this moment, Zhonglihao suddenly noticed that Zhongliji's longing eyes had been looking at him. After thinking about it, he asked Zhongliji to go with him.

City Shoufu.

In the study, Bai Yan yawned under the candlelight, endured his sleepiness, took a pen and ink, and wrote a message to Xianyang on a bamboo slip.

Not only Jing Qi, King Chu's confidant Jing Qi, but also Lord Chang Wen, who betrayed Qin, had his head cut off and sent to Lord Chang Ping. Naturally, Bai Yan wanted to send a letter to Xianyang about this matter.

Jingqi's army was defeated, and it was no longer possible for the Chu State to encircle the Qin army in the east of Chu.

When Bingdong passes and the winter snow melts, it will be the time when the Chu Kingdom will be destroyed, and at that time, the crisis here will also disappear.

He picked up the wooden cup on the side and took a sip of tea.

Bai Yan looked at the contents on the bamboo slip and after confirming that it was correct, he put down the bamboo slip.

"General, outside the mansion, Zhonglihao and Zhonglichuan are asking to see you!"

A close aide came to the study at this time and reported to Bai Yan.

Bai Yan was not surprised when he heard this. After all, thousands of people in the Qin army that participated in the siege of Jingqi and Lord Chang Wen were Zhongli's private soldiers. When the Qin army returned to the city, the Zhongli family would naturally know the news.

"Bring it in!"

Bai Yan said softly.

The confidant took the order and turned around to leave. Not long after, in the darkness outside, brothers Zhonglichuan and Zhonglihao arrived along the way.

"Congratulations General on your victory!"

"Congratulations General Bai!!!"

Brothers Zhong Lihao and Zhong Lichuan came to the study room with happy faces and congratulated Bai Yan.

Bai Yan stood up and returned the salute with a smile. Then he noticed the woman behind Zhonglihao who was greeting him. His mind turned and he guessed why Zhonglihao brought the woman here.

Thinking of this, Bai Yan felt a little helpless, but fortunately, it was not the first time. Whether it was in Pingyang, Xianyang, or even Yanmen Shanwu City in the Qin State, there were many noble clans who would bring their women to him.

, to give him as wife and concubine.

Among those noble clans, there were also some wealthy clans like the Zhongli clan, and some were officials and generals' daughters who were related to him, such as the Bao clan Baoyu, who was even more beautiful than the woman in front of him.

Thinking of Bao Tong, Bai Yan couldn't help but think of the Bao clan in Yanmen.

I don’t know if she and her father have ever met any of their own people.

"General, there is no shortage of wind and cold in this place late at night. Why don't you go to my mansion and I order the maids and Ji'er to warm wine for the general to drive away the cold!"

Zhonglihao noticed a scroll of bamboo slips placed on the wooden table under the candlelight. Then he looked at Bai Yan and asked softly. He glanced at Zhongliji behind him. In Zhonglihao's eyes, he had made it so obvious that Bai Yan didn't

Maybe you don't know what he meant.

"General Yang Yan and others have led troops to raid the Chu army's camp. The news has not yet come. It is related to the war. Bai Yan dare not neglect it, let alone disturb others in vain. Please forgive me!"

Bai Yan heard Zhong Lihao's words, came to his senses, and politely declined, then looked at Zhong Liji who looked disappointed, and saluted with his hands.

When Zhong Lihao and Zhong Lichuan heard Bai Yan's words, they looked at each other with a sigh, but then nodded to Bai Yan.

"Then tomorrow we will hold a banquet at the mansion to celebrate the general's victory. I don't know, general..."

Zhong Lihao looked at Bai Yan again and said, asking Bai Yan whether they would all go to the mansion to drink tomorrow.

"Bai Yan is so disrespectful!"

Bai Yan thought about it and did not refuse.

Zhongli Hao and Zhongli Chuan were relieved after hearing this. Although Bai Yan seemed to have no idea about Zhongli Ji, it was a pity. After all, Zhongli Ji was a woman of their Zhongli clan, but it was a pity and it did not prevent their Zhongli clan from continuing to work together.

Getting close to Bai Yan, Bai Yan just has no thoughts about Zhongliji, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't like women, he just needs to find another beauty for Bai Yan.

It is true that the Zhongli clan cannot find the kind of beauty that makes people enchanted, but as long as the Zhongli clan is not taken into account, for the Zhongli clan now sitting on countless wealth and land, it is not difficult to find such a beauty.

Disaster.

……………………

Suiyang City.

In the study room of a mansion, Xiang Yan stood up angrily and looked at the pale wizard.

"You personally said before that the poison can be cured! Why are so many soldiers still vomiting now?"

Xiang Yan was looking straight at Xuan Cao at this moment.

At the beginning, Xiang Yan was worried that there would be problems if the soldiers of the Chu army ate the grains and grains. After all, they were soaked in poison. If Cao Xuan had not repeatedly assured him later, even if Xiang Yan burned the grains and grains, he would not let the soldiers of the Chu army suffer.

Take it and eat it.

Things are going well now. The soldiers have been poisoned for two days after eating those grains and grains. Thousands of them are vomiting and tens of thousands are suffering from fatigue and discomfort.

As for the poison that Xuan Cao said could be cured, two days later, no effect was seen at all. Even Xuan Cao himself was now poisoned and it was difficult to cure it.

"General..."

The elderly Xuan Cao could naturally see the anger in Xiang Yan's eyes at this moment. However, at the moment, Xuan Cao was completely confused.

The poison was indeed a poison passed down from his ancestors. Not only had he used it several times, he had also eaten it himself and then detoxified it himself. Now he didn't understand why the antidote didn't work after this poisoning.

"No matter what method is used, those soldiers must be cured!"

Xiang Yan closed her eyes and suppressed the anger in her heart.

At this time, Xiang Yan was very suspicious that Bai Yan had tampered with Liangsu and that it was Bai Yan who hid it deliberately. However, no matter whether he asked Xuancao before or after the soldiers were poisoned, Xuancao would always shake his head.

He said that no other poisons had been found.

"General, the food and grass have been delivered!!!"

A Chu soldier hurriedly came to the study and reported to Xiang Yan.

Xiang Yan opened his eyes and heard the food and grass being delivered. He was relieved. It would be good to have food and millet. Although tens of thousands of soldiers were poisoned, he still had absolute strength under his command to besiege the Qin army.

Inside Suiyang City.

Along with countless Chu people wearing commoners, wooden trailers filled with grain and millet were transported into the city one after another. Under the supervision of Chu soldiers, grain and grass were continuously delivered to the city.

At this time, a very exquisite carriage, escorted by hundreds of Chu cavalry, also entered the city along with the grain and grass.

"I told you, Mr. Ying, please remember to stay in my residence with peace of mind! Don't be discovered by anyone!"

Young Master Xiong Qi felt the slight shaking of the carriage and said to Ying Kan beside him.

At this time, Xiong Qi also truly admired Ying Kan's courage. He even dared to come to the Chu army camp alone. Regardless of whether he could convince some Chu generals this time, Young Master Xiong Qi would always admire Ying Kan's courage.

"Don't worry, young master, Ying Kan will not do anything without permission. It is about the life and death of General Bai Yan of the Qin State. How dare Ying Kan do so!"

Ying Kan sighed, feeling helpless at Young Master Xiong Qi's uneasiness.

If it were not for the fact that the attitude of the Chu general who led the Chu army was very important here, Ying Kan would not have risked coming here. You must know that in Suiyang City at this moment, there are not only Chu general Xiang Yan, but also Qin.

The rebellious minister Changping Lord might also meet Changwen Lord or Jingqi.

Under such circumstances, Ying Kan not only dared not make fun of Bai Yan's life, but also considered his own life, so he had to be cautious and wait for Xiong Qi to find an opportunity to privately invite the generals to meet at the mansion.

In Shouchun, the king was already very anxious and extremely worried about Bai Yan's safety. He had sent two letters in a row and the stakes were increasing. Ying Kan knew that he could not delay it any longer.

At this time, the Qin army in the east of Chu had already run out of food and supplies. Faced with the encirclement of the Chu army, not to mention the worries of Ying Zheng in Xianyang, even Ying Kan knew that if he delayed for one more day, Bai Yan would be even more worried.

is the risk score.

"As long as you don't mess around!"

Xiong Qi nodded when he heard Ying Kan's words, and now he could only believe Ying Kan.

Reaching out to open the cloth window, Xiong Qi saw that the streets were full of Chu soldiers. Countless Chu soldiers were patrolling with long guns in their hands.

Thinking that Bai Yan had led his troops in this city to resist General Xiang Yan and led an army of 200,000 from the Chu State to attack, Xiong Qi breathed a sigh of relief. In the court, his father, who had received the news, finally stopped.

Blame him.
