Farmhouse Little Fortune

Chapter 305 (Three hundred and five) Negotiation and Accountability

When Qi Ba heard the report from the scouts that Jin Bing was within [-] miles of the camp, he panicked for a moment and asked the scouts: "Where is General Bai Shen? Why hasn't he come back at this time?"

The scout obviously didn't know about Bai Ruoqian's whereabouts, so he just said: "Before noon, my subordinates saw Bai Shen and his men go eastward in the wind canal ten miles in front of Moyi Valley, but the last general didn't Opportunity to talk to General Bai Shen, so now I don't know where the generals and horses are."

Qi Ba asked some more information about Jin Bing, and the scouts answered them one by one. Yu Yu saw that what the scouts said was similar to what Xiao Bai had heard, so he didn't have any more questions.

Jin Bing came suddenly, and there were still so many people. It is reasonable to say that the guard post in Thirty Li should have sent someone to report back, but there was no news all day today, and the scouts only came to report at night.

Obviously those sentry posts are in danger.

Although Qi Ba was usually a bit reckless, he grew up beating and beating in the barracks, and he has been with General Qi for several years, so when he heard the scout report, he ordered someone to go back to Juxia Pass to give Qi The general reported the letter, and then led people to check the defensive posts in the vanguard camp.

After Qi Ba finished checking the sentry post, he summoned all the thousands of households in the Pioneer camp to come to the big tent to listen to the order.

In Bai Ruoqian's absence, Qi Ba didn't dare to meet the enemy casually. To be on the safe side, he still wanted to fight a defensive battle around the sandstone fort.

Yu Yu agrees with Qi Ba's approach. It's no problem for Qi Ba to charge forward as a striker, but if he is asked to dispatch troops and generals, he is still a little too late.

Instead of commanding randomly and putting these ten thousand brothers in danger, it is better to hold on first and wait for Juxiaguan to come to help.

The Jin soldiers had 2000 soldiers and horses, and the vanguard battalion had only 8000 soldiers and horses. Bai Ruoqian led out more than [-] people, and now there are only a little more than [-] in the army including the Huotou army.

Qi Ba stood in front of the big tent and finished talking about the enemy's situation. After issuing the military order, he asked all the hundred households to disperse first. Those who should be on duty were on duty and those who should be patrolling.

Qi Ba brought soldiers of the thousand-household level and above into the big tent, and there were only ten thousand-households in the vanguard camp of 1 people. , and began to discuss the next step to deal with the enemy.

If 1 horses fight against 10 horses, none of the ten people will suggest a direct confrontation. Most people still propose to wait for the order from Juxiaguan before making a decision.

Qi Ba also thought so.

Juxia Pass is about sixty miles away from Sandstone Fort, but the Jinbing soldiers are pressing on every step. Unless everyone retreats now, the reinforcements will definitely not come as quickly as the Jinbing soldiers.

Yu Yu is not familiar with these thousands of households and guards. Although Yu Yu has been in the army for two months, apart from Zhang Shoubei, He Qianhu, and Wu Qianhu, who Bai Ruoqian and Qi Ba frequently meet, It was Hu Qianhu and the newly promoted Liu Shuangqianhu and Yu Yu who were acquainted.

Everyone knew that Bai Ruoqian had always had the final say in this vanguard camp, but the sudden absence of Bai Ruoqian made it feel like a group of dragons without a leader.

Immediately Zhang Shoubei suggested that Qi Ba send some people to find Bai Ruoqian and come back, so he must know what happened to Bai Ruoqian.

Qi Ba also wanted to find Bai Ruoqian, so he looked at the crowd and asked: "General Bai Shen went out to investigate this morning, but he didn't return until late at night, which is not in line with his usual style. Does anyone of you want to take someone to meet General Bai Ruoqian? ? I promise to dispatch five hundred elite soldiers to respond."

Although Zhang Shoubei suggested that someone go to Bai Ruoqian, but he didn't want to go, so he didn't say anything for a while.

Wu Qianhu followed Bai Ruoqian out several times to investigate. He seemed to admire Bai Ruoqian, so he immediately said that he was willing to take 500 people to the northeast to find Bai Ruoqian.

But Wu Qianhu's subordinates were almost assigned by Bai Ruoqian to be the first sentry post in the Pioneer camp, and Qi Ba didn't really want Wu Qianhu to go.

With Wu Qianhu gone, the defense of this vanguard camp has to be handed over to others. He still trusts Wu Qianhu more than the other several thousand households.

"I'll go! Just give me one person, I don't want a horse either, I'll go find Brother Bai." Yu Yu saw Qi Ba's intentions, and stood up before Qi Ba was in trouble.

When it comes to finding someone, Yu Yu thinks that no one can be faster and more accurate than her.

Qi Ba also knew that Yu Yu was superb in martial arts, but he was not at ease because of Yu Yu's support.

"You just take one person with you? How can that be done? If you encounter a Tartar on the way, there will be no one who will come back to report if something happens." Qi Ba said disapprovingly.

Yu Yu said seriously: "I can say that, of course I have my plan, you just need to send me the person I need, before tonight, no matter if I find Brother Bai or not, I will definitely I will come back, you just need to guard the gates, presumably the people sent by the general before Zishi will also come, you just follow the orders of the general."

Seeing Yu Yu's resolute look, Qi Ba knew that he couldn't stop her, and if he didn't let her go now, she would still go quietly later.

"Okay, who do you want me to send with you?" Qi Ba compromised.

Yu Yu did not hesitate to report Xu Huhu's name. Since she intends to take Xu Huhu as an apprentice, it is very necessary to take him by her side for a test, and she wants Xu Huhu to know her true ability.

It would be inconvenient to show off her abilities if she brought too many people, but getting Xu Huhu to follow her would kill two birds with one stone.

After hearing what Yu Yu had said, Qi Ba yelled outside the big tent, and the guards outside the big tent ran to find Xu Huhu.

Seeing that Yu Yu was going to bring Xu Huhu to find Bai Ruoqian, Zhang Shoubei and the others all looked in disbelief, especially the few Qianhu who were not familiar with Yu Yu looked at Yu Yu like a fool. Fish, looked at Qiba again.

Yu Yu didn't pay attention to their eyes, this vanguard camp, when Bai Ruoqian was around, could still hold down some old soldiers, but without Bai Ruoqian, Qi Ba alone couldn't hold them down.

These people are not convinced by Qi Ba, but they dare not do anything because of General Qi.

When Xu Huhu came, Yu Yu took Xiaobai and took Xu Huhu away. Before taking him away, he called Qi Ba aside, and gave him an inner armor made of Ling silk and Yinghua wood from Erying Mountain. Qi Ba also gave him an instant body talisman, but Yu Yu used a kit to store that instant body talisman.

"This inner armor is almost invulnerable to fire and water. You can put it on now. After I leave, you will have no soldiers to guard you. There is an amulet in this kit, which is my vision. You Take it now. No matter what these thousands of households and guards suggest to you, you'd better not act rashly, and wait for the news from Juxiaguan or when I bring Brother Bai back." Yu Yu explained to Qi Ba with uneasiness. road.
