Zhao sent troops. When Xianyang heard this news, they immediately ordered the Qin army in Shangjun to attack the Zhao army and force them to retreat.
He received this military order. The 40,000 Qin soldiers from Shangjun marched towards Zhao. However, they had just entered the country of Zhao. He saw that the Zhao army of no less than 100,000 was already on standby.
For a time, the intelligence from Shangjun clashed with the secret letter from Zhao.
The people from Xianyang were confused. The secret letter from Zhao clearly stated that Zhao had sent troops. Why were there so many Zhao troops at the border?
........
Xiao Xiao, who had returned to Yongzhou, didn't care about what happened that day.
On the contrary, Zhao Kun and the others were filled with self-blame.
At that time, he was impulsive and irrational. Now that they thought about it, they were afraid. If that general went to General Shi and said something, the captain would be punished.
"It's okay. He asked. You are just showing him."
Looking at the three of them, Xiao Xiao smiled.
The soldiers defended him. How could Xiao Xiao bear to blame him?
However, after experiencing such a thing once. It also allowed Zhao Kun and the others to grow quite a bit. He knew that he was now Xiao Xiao's subordinate, and his words and actions represented Xiao Xiao.
It also started from this moment. Even the impulsive Zhao Kun began to restrain himself.
...
He stayed in Yongzhou for two days. After that, he waited for the West River to gather enough rations again. Xiao Xiao had no choice but to lead his soldiers and set off for the border again.
........
"Fatty is the one who bet on treasures?"
"Ji ji ji, a person in charge of logistics. Fatty is finished."
"Sigh, I really want to know what that fatty is thinking. If he wasn't a 'General of the Disciple', why would he be in charge of transporting grain?”
"That's right. Fatty is really confused this time.”
...
He looked at the Qin army leaving on the street. In a pavilion, the five youths who had been with Fatty the last time were discussing animatedly, occasionally shaking their heads.
Like Fatty, they were born into merchant families.
There were many things in the mountains of Yongzhou. He had followed his father to Yongzhou to do business since he was young. They would purchase goods in Yongzhou and send them to other places to sell.
They were very familiar with Yongzhou.
They all knew that Fatty Mi had been driven to Yongzhou by his family.
It was precisely because of this that Fatty was betting on this 'General of Disciple'. They all felt that the fatty was really muddle-headed.
.........
Two days later, at the Qin-Han border, Xiao Xiao sent another batch of grain.
However, after waiting for a long time, he still did not see the people who had handed over the last time.
Another two hours passed. At the foot of the valley in the distance, no one could be seen on the road. Zhao Kun and the others were already impatient.
Xiao Xiao also frowned.
"Captain, should we continue?”
Yi Kang compared to Zhao Kun. The two of them were much calmer.
"Wait a little longer!"
Xiao Xiao shook his head.
Without Xiao Xiao's orders, the 2,000 soldiers could only wait in place.
...
"Something's wrong!"
A moment later, just as everyone was complaining. Xiao Xiao spoke.
Hearing this, Zhao Kun and the others looked at the husbandman in confusion.
"Captain, what's wrong?"
Yi Kang asked.
Xiao Xiao then pointed at the valley in the distance.
"Look carefully at the wild birds in the sky later.”
Xiao Xiao said.
It was winter now, and he grew up in the mountains. According to this season, those wild birds basically searched all over the mountain for food. There was no time to fly around.
However, he had been observing just now. He realized that in the valley in the distance, many birds had just landed on the branches and flew away in the next second.
"Is there someone in the forest?"
After Xiao Xiao's reminder. Yi Kang, Han Cheng, and the others also realized that something was wrong.
If there was no one in the forest, why would the bird be so frightened? Not a single bird dared to land in the mountains on either side.
"Did we embarrass them last time and they want to teach us a lesson?”
Zhao Kun asked.
Last time, they had offended those people who had handed over the goods. It seemed reasonable that the other party wanted to teach them a lesson.
"Impossible. At most, they would argue a little, but if they really fought. That was the law of Qin, and he would be beheaded.”
Yi Kang shook his head. Then, he looked at Xiao Xiao.
Now that there was something strange in the valley, they couldn't escort the rations in or out.
"That means…"
Hearing this, Zhao Kun and Yi Kang's expressions changed.
If it wasn't the Qin army in the valley, then it was... Enemy troops!
At this moment, a dozen wild birds suddenly flew over from the sky behind them and flew over their heads.
Xiao Xiao looked up. His pupils constricted.
"Be careful behind you! Form a formation in front and back!"
