Chapter 149: Never admit defeat

At this time, in the large camp of the Chu army in the rear, Qingpu led 5,000 heavy troops to guard the slave camp responsible for logistics, in case someone made a disturbance, Mao Ba led the team of Huang Yuwei through the barracks, always monitoring the every move of the slaves in the entire camp.

Everything seemed to be as usual, each slave looked numb, his face was yellow and thin, and a slave who looked like the other slaves numbly pushed the wooden cart through the gate to the stable at the rear, and the soldier on guard asked, "Why are you the only one here today?"

The person who came lowered his head and replied, "Master Huijun, Ah Liu, they changed with me today, so I will clean the stable first, so as not to smell too strong, and when the handsome man comes back, it will smell of it." ”

The whole army knew that if Ao Ziyan was the most jealous of these peculiar smells in the army, he would order someone to clean it up every day, so the soldier nodded and waved his hand, "Well, then you can go in!"

"Yes, Master Jun!"

The visitor nodded slightly, pushed the wooden cart again, and occasionally raised his gaze to look at the guards with a slight flicker, and then lowered his head to remove the remaining horse material and horse manure from the manger, and at the same time uncorked the tung oil from the cart and sprinkled it all over the stable.

Outside the stables, the voice of a soldier was heard, "Why are you here? Didn't you say that you were replaced today?"

"When did I say I was replaced?"

Ah Liu, Huzi and others were stunned when they heard this.

"Oh, the slave inside, who usually works with you, is called a black slave, and said to come here for you today. ”

The soldier at the door pointed to the black slave who had entered the road, but before everyone could see the figure, someone in the stable had already thrown the cart at hand, beat the flint in his hand, threw it to the ground, and the spark was dipped in oil and ignited, and at the same time fled towards the exit on the other side.

Seeing this, Ah Liu shouted, "Catch, catch him, he's a spy!"

Huzi and the others also shouted again and again, "Fire, fire! Quickly put out the fire!"

"What?"

When the soldier heard that the hand holding the halberd was unsteady, he immediately ordered someone to come forward to put out the fire, and Mao Ba, who was on patrol, and Qingpu, who was in charge of staying behind, heard the call for help and ran in the same direction with people, and asked loudly, "What happened?"

"We ...... I just saw someone sneaking into the stables posing as this slave......" the guard stammered back as he pointed to the burned stable.

"And what are you still standing here?"

Qingpu's face immediately turned cold, and he shouted, "Don't hurry up and chase it yet!"

"Yes Yes ......"

Fortunately, the rescue was timely, and in the burned stable, Ah Liu could still find some leftover feed from the manger, and the original forage was mixed with some dead wood that was not like grass stems and cut into pieces, exuding a pungent fragrance, which was difficult to find if it was not carefully distinguished.

Ah Liu grabbed a handful of minced dust, "I am responsible for feeding the horses and cleaning the stables for the handsome BMW every day, and the feed is also handled by my own hands, and I never dare to crush the dead branches into mincs to feed the horses, and I still feed the handsome BMW." ”

"So this feed is by no means the feed I usually feed, and it doesn't taste right, and it smells faintly peculiar. Ah Liu held the feed in both hands and wrinkled his eyebrows at the crowd and said.

Mao Ba smelled it closely, only to feel dizzy, pinched his nose and waved his hand, "What kind of smell is this?!"

Qingpu also immediately ordered someone to bring the horse doctor in the army to come forward to test, "How, what kind of poison is this!"

"It's not good, it's Ma Zuimu. ”

The horse doctor immediately changed color, and the feed in his hand was scattered on the ground, "The handsome horse has been poisoned!"

"What! What is Ma Zuiki?"

Kiyopo looked at him and asked loudly.

"A special rhododendron, the whole branch is poisonous, if the horse eats it by mistake, it will cause drunkenness and madness, so it is called the horse drunk wood!"

"I said earlier that these 50,000 people are too dangerous, but Gongzi still let them go for the sake of the princess, and now all this must be instigated by Yue Jiao behind his back!"

Qingpu didn't need to investigate, he had already concluded the matter, and on the one hand, he sent someone to report the news, and on the other hand, he ordered people to blockade the camp, "Come, block the camp, search and arrest the room, no one is allowed to leave here!

"And immediately send someone to report that Yan Bing was poisoned! Yue Jiao is going to harm Gongzi, let Gongzi be careful!"

"Yes!"

A large number of soldiers rushed towards Ah Liu, and they shrank into a ball in fear, kneeling down again and again to confess, "Master Jun, please believe us! We have nothing to do with the details, we are here to report the news!"

"Yes, we put out the fire just now!"

"Please, Master, we are innocent. ”

……

But any voice of justification in Qingpu's ears is tantamount to quibbling, shirking, and looking at the slave kneeling on the ground with an indifferent expression, "Those who take these slaves together and interrogate them, and do not confess the truth, will be guilty of the same crime!"

"Qingpu, they are the people I arranged, not the intersperse!"

"Even if they weren't in the middle, they would be responsible for the stables, but now they have been taken advantage of by the middle, are they not guilty? If the son is injured, it is not enough for these people to die ten thousand times! You also have to bear full responsibility!"

Qingpu pointed at Mao Ba's chest, and said one by one, and when the words fell, he stomped on his military boots and was about to turn around and take people away.

"Starling, you must save us!"

"You said you were going to take us back......"

Mao Ba looked at Ah Liu and the others who were almost desperate and crying for help, as well as a group of slaves who were all taken into custody, and with one look, the two hundred Phoenix Feather Guards he brought quickly blocked Qingpu's way and confronted Qingpu.

Seeing this, Qingpu's face was even more depressed, his delicate eyebrows were slightly raised, and he crossed the sword in one hand, "What, you want to disobey again?"

"I'm only on the orders of the princess to take them back safely!" Mao Ba said in a solemn voice, "instead of going back with their corpses!"

"Okay!"

"Then you can keep these words for Childe!"

"Come on, take them as slaves and arrest them with the party!"

"You dare!"

Hearing this, the Phoenix Feather Guards were furious and held their swords to fight against it, and at this moment, a large number of shouts came from the rear of the entire camp, "Someone set fire to the granary and returned the weapons depot!"

"What?"

Qingpu and Mao Ba's faces changed dramatically, and they stared at each other short-sightedly, "Hmph, this matter, let me come to you to settle accounts after I arrest these people who have committed trouble!"

"Don't worry, I won't go!"

Mao Ba took all the phoenix feather guards to guard Ah Liu and them, and helped to put out the fire, and at the same time he was thinking in his heart, if it was really a last resort, he could only follow what the princess said, please go out of the Hou Ye to persuade the horse.

……

The black slave's eyes flashed, and he looked at all the dead soldiers holding torches and said loudly: "Today is the time for us to serve the eldest prince, destroy the entire camp, and let them have no return!"

Although there are not many dead soldiers, only a thousand people, and it is a little reluctant to take down the entire Chu army camp, but as a dead soldier, he knows very well that their existence is not to go back alive.

On the day he left Yingdu, his family had all been arranged by the eldest prince, and he was ordered by the eldest prince to lead people to lurk in the slave camp, waiting for the opportunity to move during the war, and then destroy everything that could be destroyed as much as possible.

However, the slave camp was closely monitored, and he tried again and again without a chance, and finally only after hearing that the horse doctor said that there was such a plant, he secretly searched for it, and then secretly looked for an opportunity to incorporate it into the horse feed, and tested it to ensure that it was effective.

Sure enough, yesterday I heard that the marshal was going to send troops again, so he secretly distributed these horse materials to Yan Bing, who was taken care of by a special person, and all the war horses and horse materials.

Thirty miles west of Beimangshan, he believed that it would not be long before the news of their target falling off their horses or chariots and killing thousands of troops and horses would come.

……

Outside Yinggu, Zheng Jun heard the earth-shattering shouts rising towards the rising sun, his heart almost rose to his throat, no one dared to leave from the city tower, even the greedy Zigong put the bear paw in his hand back on the plate, and then looked at the matter from afar with the Zi family, forgetting the action of swallowing, "Zi family, Chu Jin really fought!"

"Well, according to this number, the Jin Kingdom will be defeated!"

"We can prepare to repair the book and repay Zheng Gong. ”

Ziai's eyes condensed slightly, nodded heavily, ordered someone to take the bamboo slips, and began to write urgently, sending a messenger to send it back to Xinzheng urgently.

……

At the foot of Beimang Mountain, Jiang Wuye hugged the enchanting and plump Jin Ji in his arms, and had already begun to order people to spread a huge brocade as if they were going out in the suburbs, and enjoyed a sumptuous lunch with Jin Ji, and set his eyes on this Chu-Jin decisive battle from afar.

Just eating a peeled Huainan orange with Jin Ji's soft wattle, and snuggling in her arms, Jiang Wuye pointed to the main army of the Jin State on the other side of the river, and said with a leisurely smile, "See? Jin Ji, you Jin people dropped a sentence "Chu State will die, take care of its illness" and ran away, now just leave such a little person to break off, Ji Liuqing, this kid is still seriously injured, I'm afraid he won't live long!"

"I saw it, I saw it!"

"My prince!"

"Look at your pleasure!"

Don't say anything about the Jin Gongzi, the dust is all over the sky, and the crowds are crowded, so close to Jin Ji can't even see the appearance of the unparalleled Chu Horse clearly, and said indifferently.

Then he knelt on the edge of the long case and put another Huainan orange into his mouth, "This Jin prince is dead when he dies, anyway, he is not the only one in exile in my Jin Kingdom." ”

"yes, there's more than one, but the others don't work. ”

The man behind her smiled, and his eyes burned at the two armies in the field.

Unprecedented focus.

He will witness with his own eyes the battle that will determine the Central Plains.

"I'm so happy, the wind and the sun are beautiful, and the show is ......"

……

Sun Hou ruled the army to be loyal and brave, and never allowed the soldiers to be timid, they were the strongest high walls guarding the border of Great Chu, and never gave any enemy a chance to take advantage of it.

The cavalry thundered out from both sides, breaking up the enemy's formation, and at the same time, like a golden phoenix, the two wings gradually closed from the left and right, suppressing the Jin army within its attack range, and the main infantry advanced under the cover of shield men and spearmen, occupying the central battlefield, and the archers crushed it in a rain of arrows.

And the chariot was in the middle of the military formation, and Sun Hou escorted the wounded Ruo Ao Ziyan, watching him coldly as he commanded the Iron Guards to engulf the Jin army of only 10,000 men almost with vengeance.

In the battlefield, as far as the eye could see, the sky was full of surrounded Chu troops and bloodthirsty golden phoenix flags flying over their heads, like a huge wave that was about to submerge them, tear them apart, and turn into blood foam from the rolling waves on the Luoshui River behind them.

The heavily guarded Jin army was guarding the large rear that belonged to Ji Liuyu's healing, and some soldiers shouted with all their strength, "But."

My lord, another enemy has broken through!"

But when the voice fell, his throat was cut by Chu Jun's sword, and he couldn't make a sound anymore.

Seeing this, the red-eyed Xian saw this, and desperately waved the loose bronze Ge behind them, shouting, "Before the son wakes up, the whole army will hold on!"

"Even if you die, you have to stick to it!"

Another stream of red blood splattered out.

He had already cut off the head of the twentieth Chu army, but there was not much left of the Jin army around him.

The blood of his own armor, his companions and the enemy dried up and sprinkled again, and the bronze Ge in his hand swept past another rushing cavalryman in the next moment, allowing the opponent's sword to stab him in the shoulder mercilessly before he died, using all his strength, roaring, and the future people picked off the war horse and became an extra corpse under the horse's hooves, his eyes widened, looking at the crazy Jin army in disbelief.

And located in the rear of the Jin army, less than fifty zhang away from the main battlefield of the fierce battle between the two armies, death was so close to all of them.

A row of shield bearers held shields full of feathered arrows, protecting the seriously injured and fallen men behind them, letting out a hoarse sound of resistance, and disappeared in the overwhelming iron hooves, "whooshing" bows and arrows.

The man lying flat on the ground, the long sword pierced through his chest, and the chest was only stopped by a broken cloak, and the only two old Wu Zhu and the young military doctor knelt to the side helplessly, and no one dared to step forward to pull out the sword on Ji Liuyu's chest.

"Gunsa-sama...... This sword is stuck in the heart and lungs of the childe, and it must not be pulled out! If the child is pulled out, the life of the child will really be gone!"

"If there is a slight difference, even if the high priest is here, he will not be able to recover from the sky......"

Xianyan swung his sword and yelled at them, "You can't draw your sword!"

"You witches, you only ask for tribute on weekdays, but at the critical moment, what about the gods who protect me in the Great Jin?

The cold feeling of the approaching death enveloped him little by little, and only coldness and numbness remained on his body, and when he heard this, he wanted to say that it was useless to say to Xian Xian, and he ran away, but only bright red blood spurted out of his mouth from his trachea.

"Childe, childe...... Don't talk anymore!"

The young medic cried and begged him not to speak.

But at this moment, he just looked up at the sky in the north in a daze, dyed by a piece of blood, and his big hand slowly touched the sword on his chest, and the warm blood flowed through his palm.

Suddenly there was a lot of things I wanted to say to someone......

Looking at the sky in the north, the white clouds, the setting glow, the land of the flat river, the winding river, and the forests are all stained with blood...... He tried to remember if the Yingdu he had been to was different from the north.

In the memory of Yingdu, on the edge of Dajiang and Daze, hidden deep in the heavy rain, there was a woman holding a sword in both hands, blocking him who was on the verge of death.

The heavy rain in my memory poured down, but it couldn't extinguish the fire that gradually burned in my heart.

"Huh...... I'm going to die, ruthless woman, you know......"

Ji Liuyu looked at the northern sky and laughed to herself.

Twenty-six years flew by in the blink of an eye, and he had not left anything in this land of Shenzhou, he was going to leave behind a cold corpse.

One lives in the midst of displacement.

In the end, he will die in exile.

The remnant sun shrouded the entire northern sky, Beimang Mountain was obviously close in front of them, as long as they turned over, they could return to the country of the day and night home, but at this moment everything became unreachable, and Mangshan could not fly no matter how close it was.

Only the wind and sand in the sky were left in the ears, covering the ridges on the horizon.

His big hand suddenly grasped the golden hilt of the sword on his chest, and his eyes were red as if he saw that the greatest enemy in his life was the one who cut off his wings to leap over the mountains when he was about to embrace everything.

It's it!

It's it!

With a loud roar, Ji Liuyu struggled outward!

"Ah——h

"I will not admit defeat!"
