Someone with the surname Xia?
Wang Ben was stunned for a moment, and he started to ponder.
After a long time-
"There aren't many nobles with the surname Xia in the Great Qin Empire. The only one I know is that the King's personal medical officer, Xia Wuqi, has the title of Five Great Doctors. As for the others…"
"We'll have to ask the young master when we get back to Xianyang," Wang Ben said after a long while.”
"Xia Wuqie?"
Xia Lan was slightly stunned when she heard that.
He had an impression of this person.
If he was not wrong, Xia Wuqi would be rich in a few years.
Using a medicine box, he had spent the rest of his life in glory and wealth.
It had to be said that this was a great opportunity.
But would he really be related to Xia Wuqi?
"General Lan, I don't know much about the Xia family. Is this important to you?”
Wang Ben was curious.
He could sense that Xia Lan had many secrets.
Was the question he asked today related to his secret?
Xia Lan smiled and shook her head.""I was just asking casually."
Before confirming his identity, he did not want to attract attention.
If he were to attract the attention of others after being a traitor, then there would be trouble.
Since Xia Lan didn't say anything, Wang Ben didn't ask any further.
In any case, the purpose of his visit was to get closer to Lan.
In his eyes, this 13-year-old child would definitely become a pillar of Great Qin in the future.
Now, their Wang Clan was rising.
Naturally, he had to maintain his relationship with the court.
"General Lan Bai, remember not to be reckless on the battlefield in the future. This general feels that you will definitely be a talented general in the future. You must not lose your life because of some military merits.”
Wang Ben stood up and patted Xia Lan's shoulder.
Xia Lan quickly stood up and cupped her hands at Wang Ben,"Thank you for your advice, General. I will remember it!”
Wang Ben nodded with a smile, then turned to the soldiers who were enjoying their meal and said,"As a general, it's good to love your soldiers like your children, but you can't get too close to them.”
With that, he turned around and left.
Xia Lan frowned as she mulled over Wang Ben's words.
Then, he smiled and shook his head.
As a person, it was good to follow one's heart. If one was too deliberate, one would be at a disadvantage.
……
When the time came, the drums of the army sounded.
After a few hours of rest, the soldiers were all in high spirits.
After Xia Lan woke up, she carefully tidied up her equipment.
He knew that there was still a tough battle to fight.
Moreover, after thinking about it last night, Xia Lan felt that the 100,000-strong army led by Huan He was very likely to be the Battle of Feixia recorded in the history books.
It was the battle where this famous general of Great Qin died.
This meant that Huan He would die in this attack on Yi 'an!
If all of this was true, then this vanguard army would be completely annihilated.
How to survive would be the first thing he would consider.
As for turning the situation around, he did not dare to think about it.
If…
"General!"
Xia Lan was deep in thought when Butcher Chou and the others walked in from outside.
Xia Lan put the thoughts in her mind aside and looked at them with a smile.
"Brother Lan, are we going to attack Yi 'an next?”
Yuan Yuan said excitedly.
This twelve-year-old youth had experienced the baptism of two wars and had grown rapidly.
At the very least, he was no longer afraid of war.
"General, we should be able to get quite a bit of money for the battle of Scarlet Beauty, right?”
Qing, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, said with a hint of longing in her eyes,"After attacking Yi 'an, if I can get five gold coins, I will go back and marry Xia, have a few children, and live a good life.”
Hearing this, Xia Lan smiled and looked at him."
"You don't want to?"
Qing was stunned. Then, she said hesitantly,"I do want to, but I'm not married yet, so I don't have any children.”
"The title of Grand Official has to wait for me to leave a seed. Even if I die in battle, at least someone can inherit my title, right?”
Everyone nodded.
These words were indeed reasonable-Great Qin's nobility could be inherited.
It was different from the inheritance system of later generations.
In the Great Qin Empire, the order of inheritance was the first wife's parents.
If there were no heirs, the inheritance of the title might really be a bit of a loss.
"Don't be afraid!"
"Naigong already has two brats in his family!”
"Haha…"
Butcher laughed loudly.
Beside him, the short and muscular Woodcutter Xin also spoke up,""There are also three children in the Xin family…"
"Stop!"
Xia Lan hurriedly stopped everyone.
How did the conversation turn into a competition?
He didn't have a child, not in this life, not in his previous life.
He could not compare to them in this aspect.
"Hurry up and pack your things.”
Xia Lan said.
Everyone stopped laughing.
"In this battle, I have something to tell everyone.”
Xia Lan said after a moment of hesitation.
"We understand. Alive!"
Everyone said in unison.
They seemed to know what Xia Lan was going to say.
Seeing this, Xia Lan smiled.
This was the result he wanted.
The idea of living on the battlefield was deeply implanted in their hearts.
"Other than this, there is one more thing.”
Xia Lan put away the smile on her face and said rather seriously,""In this battle, you must follow me closely.”
Everyone: "???"
Follow closely?
Everyone could not help but roll their eyes.
He had said the same thing when attacking the Scarlet Beauty Sect.
However, when they reached the hearse, Xia Lan jumped onto the city wall alone. Everyone wanted to follow closely, but they could not.
Apart from Xia Lan, who had gone berserk, they would never be able to jump over a distance of 30 feet.
Seeing their expressions, Xia Lan also realized what they were thinking. She immediately smiled awkwardly and said,"Don't worry, I won't act rashly this time.”
Everyone nodded.
……
At noon, after the army gathered, they set off for Yi 'an City.
This attack on Yi 'an did not have a hundred thousand troops.
Firstly, in the attack on Chili, although the Qin army had killed 30,000 Zhao soldiers, they had also suffered 20,000 casualties.
He left behind some civilian workers and military doctors to take care of the wounded. Huan He only brought 70,000 troops to attack Yi 'an.
……
At the same time, a fast horse set off from the north gate of Yi 'an City, heading towards the northern border.
The northern Great Wall of Zhao had the most elite army of the country, with a number of 300,000.
The commander of this army was one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, General Li Mu.
