Chapter 519 (2/2)

The Dachang soldier's estimation of the distance was relatively accurate. When their army had marched for about three or four hours, it was only ten miles from Yantian city. If you go ahead at this speed, you will definitely be able to reach the city before dark. Unfortunately, at this time, the army of Dachang had to stop, because the road in front of them was filled with boulders.

This gorge can be said to be the only way to Yantian city. On the left and right sides of this gorge are steep mountains, but the middle passage is filled with huge stones. However, these stones are as high as more than ten people, and there is no way for the team to pass. Seeing the boulder blocking the road, Hu Degui, who was eager to get promoted in Tiancheng, was very angry. He yelled at the soldiers behind him: ”what are you doing there? Move these stones away for meSeeing Hu Degui's livid face, although he was not very happy in his heart, the second prince couldn't help smiling. He seemed to treat Hu Degui as if he were looking at a clown. The second prince laughed and said, ”Hu Degui! Don't worry! take your time! Even though it took some time to move these stones, we can still get to the city before today

Hu Degui's face is thick, but he can hear two princes. This is obviously a tone of nockery. But soon, Hu Degui returned to his normal state and said with a flattering smile, ”Your Highness, I am not afraid of delaying your rest time? Your highness is the body of thousands of gold. It has been very hard to come all the way. If you can get there earlier, your highness can have a rest in Yantian city as early as possible. You don't have to suffer from the hardships of living in the open air and sleeping in the city! ” Hu Degui is also a flatterer. In a few words, the second prince is comfortable.

After about an hour or so, with the efforts of the soldiers of the Dachang army, the boulders blocking the gorge were finally removed. Although it delayed a lot of time, but according to the distance calculation, only need to rush some night road, still can arrive before today. However, Hu Degui was already very anxious. Even though he urged the army to step up its advance, the second prince did not speak. He rode his horse on the road, which was different from those soldiers. In addition, when the soldiers were carrying the stones, he was leisurely resting on the side. Naturally, he did not say that he was tired.

In this way, they suffered from the bottom soldiers. Although they were loyal to Dachang, they were not loyal to Hu Degui. Just after moving those big and heavy boulders, I haven't had time to rest. Now I'm forced by Hu Degui to go on my way. It's time for dinner. Hu Degui and other officers had just had enough to eat during their break, but they didn't even drink a mouthful of water. But there was no way. Who would let them be soldiers and generals? Those soldiers had to endure hunger and continue to move towards the city of heaven.

After more than an hour's drive, it was already late at night. With the help of the torches, the 100000 troops finally arrived at Yantian city. Outside the city, the second prince could not help but frown, because the city was dark, let alone the garrison, and could not even see half a person.

”What's wrong with Xiong Qian? Are there no soldiers guarding the city? If the later Qin army went around and attacked secretly, what should we do? ” The second prince was obviously dissatisfied with Xiong Qian's carelessness. Of course, he did not think that Yan Tiancheng was captured by the later Qin army, but this idea was rejected immediately. If Yan Tiancheng is really captured, then the Qin army should arrange soldiers to guard the southern city!

When Hu Degui heard the second prince's words, he knew that the second prince was dissatisfied with Xiong Qian. His heart was even more elated. He immediately looked angry and said, ”this Xiong Qian! I think he's just a real show! Even the head of the city has not sent troops to guard. What famous general of Dachang? Pooh! Just him? ”

The second prince felt strange in his heart, but he was a little impatient with Hu Degui's noise. He directly addressed a bodyguard behind him and said, ”you take a team of people to call the door! Watch out! See what's wrong! Don't get too close to the gate Obviously, the second prince also had some brains. Now the situation is full of weird, and he has to be careful.

”Here it is The bodyguard named by the second prince immediately received the military order. With a wave of his hand, he rushed to the gate with a team of about 200 people. Hu Degui saw the second prince's face black and blue by the light of the fire. Even if he had no brain, he knew that the second prince was in a bad mood, so he shut his mouth obediently.

Soon, from the front came the guard's cry: ”Hello! I am the first-class bodyguard of the second prince's house! Now your Highness has arrived with the army! Open the gate quickly! Welcome your highness into the city
