Hearing Qin Feng's order, everyone was extremely excited!
Jinling City, the border city of Zhao.
It was also the border between the State of Zhao and the northern grasslands. Logically speaking, such an important city should not only have 10,000 soldiers.
The reason for this was because Zhao was the main force in the five countries 'attack on Qin.
The King of Zhao sent all the troops he could to the front line.
As the battle became more intense, the five country alliance army was stopped by Qin at Hangu Pass, unable to advance.
Faced with such a situation, the five nations began to mobilize their troops and transport resources to Hangu Pass!
There was a 3,000-man army stationed outside Jin Ling City!
There were still many laborers here, who were loading bags of grain and cotton clothes.
During this time, 20 to 30 people boarded the designated carriages.
This was an army responsible for logistics and supplies.
"General Fan, this batch of grain and cotton clothes must be safely sent to the front line!”
Everything was ready.
The city lord of Jinling City said to the general in charge of logistics.
"Don't worry, City Lord."
Fan Cheng patted his chest and said,"
"I will definitely deliver this batch of grain and cotton clothes safely. There will definitely be no mistakes!”
"That's good."
"By the way, City Lord, I don't know when the next batch of cotton-padded clothes will arrive. The weather is cold, and there are still many soldiers who haven't replenished them!”
"His Majesty is already negotiating with the Kingdom of Qi. It won't be long before the goods are transported over!”
"That's good, that's good!"
The two of them were about to exchange a few more pleasantries when a messenger suddenly rushed over.
"Not good, not good!"
"How can you be so flustered and offend the City Lord?”
Fan Cheng said angrily.
"General Fan, bad news! A large number of troops have appeared in the north. They are less than three miles away from Jin Ling City!”
"What army? Where did the army come from?"
Jin Ling City Lord Zheng Zhi said,"
"Did the Qi Kingdom send more troops to the front line?”
"No, it's not."
The messenger said,"
"That army has tens of thousands of people. They are all cavalry, and they cover the sky and the sun.”
"Right, there are Xiongnu cavalry in that army!”
"Xiongnu cavalry?"
Zheng Zhi suddenly exclaimed,
"Why would the Xiongnu attack us? Didn't the king sign an agreement with them to jointly attack Qin?”
"What should I do, what should I do?"
Zheng Zhi was panicking, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He naturally knew how powerful the Xiongnu were.
The vast northern plains also bordered the borders of the State of Zhao!
In recent years, the Xiongnu had often come to Zhao to burn, kill, and rob.
The King of Zhao sent envoys to ask for peace and pay tribute. Not only did it bring stability to the border, but it also received the support of the Xiongnu Chanyu.
He agreed to attack the Qin country with them.
"But it's a little strange."
The messenger continued," Although there are Xiongnu cavalry in this army, there are also people from the Central Plains. It seems to be a mixed army!”
"There's such a thing?"
Zheng Zhi was puzzled.
"Why would the Xiongnu people be together with the Central Plainsmen?”
At this moment, Fan Cheng, who was in charge of escorting the grain, asked,
"Is this army assigned a number?”
The messenger hesitated for a moment before saying,
"Yes, the general did, but it was a little strange.”
"What they typed out was the word 'Qin'!”
When Fan Cheng and Zheng Zhi heard that, they were instantly shocked."The army of the Qin country?"
"This subordinate does not know, but the flag they are flying is not the flag of the Qin country.”
"Stop guessing. No matter who it is, we should be vigilant first!”
Zheng Zhi gritted his teeth and said,"If it's the Xiongnu, then hand over all these rations and military supplies!"”
"This is to support the front line!"
"This is the only way. The Xiongnu are greedy. As long as we give them resources, they will retreat! The military supplies could be collected again. The most important thing now was to attack Qin! We must ensure that there are no losses in the rear!”
"Ta"
However, Qin Feng did not give them the chance to prepare.
He saw a group of cavalry coming from the north, approaching from afar. The sound of horses galloping could be heard!
The earth shook and dust flew into the air!
"Coming, coming!"
"There are at least tens of thousands of people here!”
Qin Feng's arrival brought panic to Jin Ling City.
Countless people discussed animatedly, feeling extremely terrified!
Zheng Zhi's heart relaxed slightly. From the looks of it, this army should be Xiongnu!
It was almost winter, so these Xiongnu people should be out to plunder food.
In this way, as long as they were given enough food, there should not be too much conflict.
With the City Lord Zheng Zhi's order, the rations that were originally prepared to be transported to the front line were now placed outside the city.
Just as Qin Feng and his army arrived at Jin Ling City, they saw a person walking over.
This person shouted,
"Friends of the Xiongnu, may I know why you have stepped into the territory of our country?”
He spoke very politely in Hu language.
But upon closer inspection, he realized that this mixed army did not seem to be led by the Hu!
At the front of the group was a young general in silver armor.
Although this person was young, the pressure he emitted made him feel uncomfortable!
This silver armored youth was precisely Qin Feng!
