The queen cried the whole harem

Chapter 240 Entering Lanzhou Pass
Among the entire group of the Yan family, the female relatives rode in a carriage, and the men rode outside on horseback, fearing that something might happen on the road. The female relatives hardly ever came out on the way, but now, they have arrived at their hometown. Although this hometown is not the real hometown, it is just It was a temporary garrison point, but it was enough for them to be excited.

They got out of the carriage, and together with the men, they stood in the place they had been longing for for four years.

They did not meet Yan Lang at first. Once they entered the Lanzhou Guandi boundary, the group of them were very excited and slowed down their pace and stopped walking. Only then did they meet Yan Lang.

Yan Lang was patrolling with the patrolling teams, there were many people in the first team, including Guo Xin, Meng Qingzheng, Zhao Baoye, and other soldiers.

After they turned around and turned back, they saw a carriage parked a mile away from the city gate, and many people stood around the carriage. It was only after they approached that they realized who the group of people were.

Everyone in the Yan family.

Yan Lang was the first to rush out and ran in front of those people.

Zhao Baoye was the second to follow and greet everyone in the Yan family.

Guo Xin and Meng Qingzheng came to their senses and came forward to say hello.

Other soldiers also came forward to say hello.

Yan Tai looked at his son, he had grown taller, and his figure seemed to have become burly, as if he had been reborn, from a child to an adult.

In fact, Yan Lang is still young, but now he feels like a reliable adult.

Yantai said happily: "It seems that your fourth cousin has taken good care of you."

Yan Lang nodded: "Fourth cousin is very kind to me. She not only pays for me to study, but also teaches me the art of astronomy and geography. Although I am not as good as the fourth cousin, I am still somewhat successful and can predict some weather conditions." We can also master some knowledge about the mountains and rivers, which will be very helpful in fighting a war."

During this period of time, Yan Lang often wrote some letters and asked Zhao Baoye to bring them to Yuan Tongjing. Later, Huang Xurong came back, because Huang Xurong did not go with the Yan family, and Huang Xurong was alone. Delayed on the road, he rushed back to Lanzhou Pass first.

Huang Xurong arrived at Lanzhou Pass ten days ago.

After Huang Xurong came back, Yan Lang wrote another letter, and Zhao Baoye would hand over the letter to Huang Xurong.

So far, Huang Xurong, Yuan Tongjing, and even some deputy princes in the city have known Yan Lang's ability to observe astronomy and weather, and understand the direction of mountains, rivers and terrain.

This is also Yan Lang's paving the way for the use of supernatural powers later.

Yan Tai said: "Your fourth cousin is very powerful, it is your blessing that you can learn from her."

Mrs. Zhou curled her lips, stepped forward and hugged Yan Lang: "My son is going to be successful now, mother is very happy, seeing you standing in front of mother in good health, safe and sound, all the hardships my mother has suffered It's worth it."

Yan Xiaoye came over and patted Yan Lang on the shoulder: "I haven't seen you for more than a year, you are really tall and strong, you don't look like my younger brother, but my elder brother."

Yan Lang smiled and said, "I will grow up to the sky, and I will still be your younger brother."

Yan Xiaoye proudly said: "Of course, my sister will always be my sister."

Yan Bin and Ning Shi also came to talk to Yan Lang, Yan Hao and Liu Shi also came to talk to Yan Lang, and then Guo Xin, Meng Qingzheng and Zhao Baoye.

Knowing that Guo Xin was Yan Lang's entourage, the Yan family regarded him as their own.

Yan Bin asked Meng Qingzheng why he was here, and Yan Lang explained the reason. Yan Bin couldn't help but praise: "Miss Meng is a girl, but she has a heart to serve the country and kill the enemy. It is really commendable. You can tell from your words that you are here." I have been here for more than a month, and I have also fought against Jiang Guo soldiers, you seem to be in good condition, and Miss Meng is also very skilled in martial arts, right?"

Meng Qingwen smiled and said: "It's not superlative, but it's capable of killing a few Jiang Guo soldiers."

Yan Bin nodded: "When I have the opportunity to meet your father, I will definitely praise you in front of your father. Everyone has patriotism, but there are very few people who are not afraid of death. Miss, this is even more commendable."

Yan Hao and Yan Tai also praised Meng Qingzheng.

Meng Qingzheng was very happy, took a look at Yan Lang, walked to Yan Xiaoye's side, and went to talk to Yan Xiaoye.

Yan Lang asked Yan Bin: "Second Uncle, are you going to the city now?"

Yan Bin raised his head, looked at the Guancheng Gate of Lanzhou 500 meters away, stood quietly for a while, and said, "There are still many things to do before entering the city."

When leaving Guiyang City, the few things the king told him were very difficult to handle, so he had to find a solution quickly.

Yan Lang said: "I will go into the city with you."

Yan Bin looked at his clothes: "You are patrolling outside the city, since you are a patrolling soldier, don't leave your post without permission."

Yan Lang replied: "I applied to join the patrol because I was waiting for you, but now that you are back, of course I will follow you into the city. I am not going back to Lanzhou Pass for patrol."

What did Yan Lang do when he returned to Lanzhou Pass?The Yan family is naturally very clear, because that is what they have to do, and must do.

Take back Lanzhou Pass and let the folks return to their homeland.

Yan Bin said: "Then let's go to the city together."

Zhao Baoye led the way, and soon the city gate was opened, the female family members got into the carriage, and the men accompanied them on horseback. After the city gate opened, a group of people entered the city.

This is a temporary garrison point, which does not occupy a large area, but after four years of repairs, there are city walls and gates.

Inside the city gate, houses are lined up on both sides from the main road at the entrance. This is where the soldiers live. If you go all the way back, you will see a wall with a gate in the middle guarded by two soldiers.

Go through the door in the middle and enter the real residential area.

There are noisy downtown, children playing, women talking loudly, and girls drying clothes, everything is so lively.

It is a typical frontier gate, and the frontier style of the town behind.

The Yan family had been in exile for four years. Originally, they had no place to live in this new garrison. However, Huang Xurong came back first, knowing that the Yan family and his party would also come back, so he asked someone to prepare a three-entry courtyard for the Yan family in advance. Enough for the three brothers of the Yan family to live with their families.

Zhao Baoye led the Yan family all the way to Yan's house, and then the female family members got off the carriage.

Yan Bin, Yan Hao, Yan Tai and Yan Lang followed Zhao Baoye to meet Huang Xurong.

Huang Xurong said: "Just now I heard some soldiers say that seeing the Yan family entering the city, I was thinking of going to Yan's house to see you after I finished my work at hand."

He took out a bunch of keys and handed them to Yan Bin: "This is the key to Yan's house. I will give it to you now. From now on, Yan's house and the entire Lanzhou Pass will have to be taken care of by you." Yan Bin took the keys , said in a respectful tone: "Huang Wuhou is polite. The Yan family has guarded Lanzhou Pass for generations and has never left in their life. This is our home and our roots. We failed to keep our home and our roots four years ago. , Four years later, the Yan family will definitely assist Huang Wuhou to regain the lost homeland."

Huang Xurong nodded: "Let's work together to recover Lanzhou Pass as soon as possible, so that the people can return to their homeland, and His Majesty can feel at ease."

Yan Bin thought of the three things the king had confessed before leaving, and asked Huang Xurong: "Are we going to discuss things now?"

Huang Xurong shook his head: "Don't worry, you just came back from your journey, go back and rest for a night, and come to the meeting hall tomorrow morning."

Yan Bin thought for a while and said, "Alright, then we'll come back tomorrow."

"Ah."

Yan Bin turned around with the key, Yan Hao, Yan Tai and Yan Lang bid farewell to Huang Xurong, and the group returned to Yan's house.

The door was opened, the carriage drove in, and the courtyards were allocated, tidied up and settled down.

Jiang Chengchi had the Lanzhou Pass Divine Map in his hand. He saw the Yan family entering Lanzhou Pass. However, this sacred map was flawed, and he could not see where the Yan family lived.

If you can't see where the Yan family lives, you can't see what the Yan family does.

From the divine map, you can see any minor changes, but you can't hear the sound.

Now that even prying eyes can't see it, Jiang Chengchi is a little concerned.

Jiang Chengchi stared at the divine map, and saw the Yan family enter the rear town, and then disappeared where the divine map could see.

He frowned and said, "I don't know whether it is the limitations of the divine map that prevent us from seeing the Yan family's whereabouts, or whether the Yan family is really the patron saint of Qi and uses special methods to shield us from prying eyes. "

Sun Changce said beside him, "Why don't we test it out?"

Jiang Chengchi asked: "How to test?"

Sun Changce said: "If the Yan family really has supernatural powers, they will definitely know what's going on here in advance. Your Majesty might as well send [-] soldiers out on purpose, and then send [-] soldiers to cover them, so that they can reach the Guancheng Gate of Lanzhou smoothly. , We don’t take the initiative to attack the city, after all, there are still white flags hanging on the city wall, but we will pretend to make the Qi people look like they are going to attack Lanzhou Guancheng Gate, let’s see how they react.”

"If they deal with it, it will prove that the Yan family is indeed the patron saint of Qi, and some of them have awakened supernatural powers."

"Your Majesty has a map of the gods. Although you can't see where the Yan family lives, your Majesty will be able to see it once soldiers are transferred in the Guan area. If soldiers are really transferred from Qi State, Your Majesty will know immediately."

Jiang Chengchi stretched out his index finger and tapped the table. This method is good. It doesn't make a foul, and it can also test whether the Yan family is the patron saint of Qi.

but…

"If the Yan family is indeed the patron saint of Qi State, they also know that we have mobilized soldiers, but they just won't take the bait? You must know that the white flag is hung above the gate of Jiang State City, even if we dispatched a large number of soldiers to besiege Qi State City The people on the Qi side also know that we don't dare to really attack the city, if they don't move, then this move will be in vain."

Sun Changce affirmed, "No."

Jiang Chengchi raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

Sun Changce said: "These [-] soldiers are bait and dead soldiers. We have white flags hanging on the city gates on our side, and we cannot take the initiative to declare war, but there are no white flags on the city gates of Qi State. If they know that our side Send [-] soldiers over to surround their city gates, and they will definitely use all means and spare no effort to kill these [-] soldiers."

"From the situation of patrolling and confrontation during this period, we can see that as far as Qi Guo is concerned, if any Jiang country's enemy troops appear, they will never let them go, and they must be killed."

"Now that [-] soldiers are dispatched, how can the Qi side stand still? If they know that we have sent [-] soldiers to surround their city gate, they will definitely fight back."

"We don't take the initiative to attack the city gate, we just wait and see, it's not a foul, and once Qi sends troops to kill, then we will definitely resist, so that the [-] soldiers can fight normally, it's not a foul .”

"These [-] soldiers may all be lost before the city gate of Qi State. After all, these [-] soldiers went to the city gate of Qi State, which is the territory of Qi State. If Qi State sends [-] soldiers to meet the enemy at once , with one against five, the entire army will be wiped out."

That's why Sun Changce said that these ten thousand soldiers are bait and dead soldiers, the kind who never return.

Of course, there is another situation.

"If the [-] soldiers went to the city gate of Qi State, but Qi State didn't find out, then they will come back safely. At the same time, it also proves that the Yan family is not actually the patron saint of Qi State. The reason why Yan Ning is powerful is because of her. We are different from ordinary people, and have mastered some knowledge that ordinary people do not have, so we can report to the prince."

Jiang Chengchi felt that what Sun Changce said was right. He and Sun Changce came to Lanzhou Pass not to start a war, but to test whether the Yan family was the patron saint of Qi. Several people.

When a white flag is hung on the gate of one side, the people on the side cannot declare war on their own initiative, and the people on the enemy side cannot take the initiative to declare war, but if they do not take the initiative to declare war, it does not mean that the enemy army has surrounded the gate, but they have not seen it.

Just like when soldiers from the two sides encountered each other during a patrol, there would always be a fight.

It's not a foul.

Jiang Chengchi tapped the tabletop again, and said, "Then do this. You go to select soldiers and dispatch them at night. Be careful, and don't let the soldiers on patrol in Qi State find out."

Jiang Chengchi didn't take any action before because he was waiting for all the Yan family to come back.

Why did Jiang Chengchi know that the Yan family was returning to Lanzhou Pass?Of course it wasn't because of Yan Lang, it was because Uncle Jiang Wang sent him the message.

Qi Rongchu left to pick up the Yan family, and Uncle Jiang Wang knew about it.

So Uncle Jiang Wang conveyed the news to Jiang Chengchi.

After Jiang Chengchi received the news, he began to wait for the Yan family. After all, he wanted to test whether the Yan family was the patron saint of Qi, even if all the Yan family were there.

Now is the right time.

Sun Changce personally ordered [-] soldiers, plus [-] soldiers, and told them what to do. After dinner, the [-] soldiers set off quietly.

Yan's house was tidied up, and the whole family was tired after traveling for half a month, so they went back to their own yards to rest.

Before going to bed, Yan Lang habitually activated his magical powers to find out the situation in Jiang Guo.

It wasn't a big deal at first, just some patrolling soldiers, but tonight he saw Jiang Guo sent [-] soldiers to the Lanzhou Pass of Qi State.
