"San Lang, I'm afraid we've picked up a big credit."

At the Lingzhou County Office, Ma Yu was wearing a regular suit, washed his bloody hands in a basin of water, and smiled at Ma Yue.

Kneeling in the hall sat all the military and political officials of Lingzhou County, Ma Yue smiled and said, "It seems that you asked something." ”

Ma Yu's seriously injured body was still a little weak, and his face turned a little pale after such an activity.

It was purely helpless to let the seriously injured horse play out, and Dou Liang brought back a captive, among whom Dou Liang and the others could speak some Xianbei language but were not proficient, and the effect of asking for information was not very good.

And Ma Wan, who has been mixed into the Xianbei army many times on the battlefield in northern Xinjiang, specializes in learning, and is proficient in Xianbei language.

Ma Yu spread his hands and smiled at everyone, his eyes narrowed into a line: "Brother Dou captured this guy is a thousand-commander, and he belongs to the brother Pu Tou, who is the elder brother of the western Xianbei lord. This morning, King Xianbei and Lian were killed by a cold arrow ambushed by the Eastern Falling Lord Miga outside Xiao Pass. ”

"And even dead!"

"My God, what's the situation with Xianbei now?"

Ma Yu Zhengse said: "Xianbei's 30,000 army died more than 5,000 people on the Great Wall, and Xiao Guanli was burned to death by San Lang. There was another infighting this morning, and Micah ran back with a small number of men, as well as more than 15,000 men. ”

Ma Yue shook his head, hearing the news of the death of King Xianbei and Lian just now really made him happy, but now he couldn't be happy.

"There are still fifteen thousand people in Xianbei, and we only have more than 1,800 people..."Ma Yue frowned and pulled his hair and asked, "County order, is there any news from Huangfu Taishou?" ”

Su Zhenghe shook his head and replied: "The herald sent in the early morning has not yet returned, and it has not been passed over, and it is estimated that it will take two hours for Lord Huangfu to advance at full speed and the army will reach Lingzhou." ”

Ma Yu shook his head and muttered: "The situation is not good, it is difficult for more than a thousand Han troops to hold Lingzhou for two hours. ”

Ma Yue nodded and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, we have something to do." ”

Everyone smiled wryly.

Peng Tuo asked: "San Lang, is it a war or a retreat now?" ”

Ma Yue felt that he should not be able to hold it, one thousand against ten thousand, even if it was to defend the city, it was almost an impossible task, not to mention that there were no arrows, and the equipment defending the city was transported to Xiao Pass.

Even the oil is running out, and it's impossible to burn Xianbei again.

The situation has been taken to the extreme.

"There's no other way than to hold on."

Ma Yue said to Su Zhenghe and Zhang He: "Su County Lieutenant, Zhang County Cheng, arrange for the people to go out of the city, leave the whole army for three days' rations, evacuate to Fuping, and take ...... Everything. ”

The location of Lingzhou is too important, leading to all the counties in the Northland, once Lingzhou County is captured, no matter how long, it is only a matter of time before the Xianbei people plunder, the wide road, and the support of the strong bow of the horses will become free to come and go.

Che Gong Gong, Ma Xiao Xiao.

The Han army helped the people pack their bags, watched them out of the city, and watched them go away.

The civilians here are all members of the Han army's family, including wives, children, gray-haired old fathers, and faltering old mothers.

This time, they were going to say goodbye to their husbands, sons, brothers, fathers.

Crying kept coming from the evacuation team, and they all knew that once they left this time, they would never look back.

Ma Yue and Guan Yu stood at the head of the city, watching the distant convoy gradually leave their field of vision, and they probably couldn't go back to Longxian.

"Brother, I'm homesick."

Ma Yue's eyes were red, and he leaned against the city wall to sharpen his knife.

He thought of Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping. Thinking of the bearded Cheng Yin, thinking of the bald Li Chen, thinking of Zhang Jiachuan's Cheng Yi, he thought of Jincheng's martial arts performance.

He thought of the bearded Cheng Yin and the bald Li Chen. Thinking of the second brother, thinking of the eldest brother, thinking of Xiao Ma Chao. Thinking of Liang Hu and Pei Ying'er.

I also thought of the big yellow dog.

With the crisp sound of scales and armor colliding, Dou Liang ran up to the city tower, panting and holding his knees, and said, "San Lang...... Yes... There are young people joining the army! ”

"What?"

Dou Liang stretched out his hand and reflexively pointed to the north of the city and said: "In the north of the city, there are eight hundred young people, they don't leave, they want to defend Lingzhou with us." ”

Ma Yue and Guan Yu glanced at each other and almost shouted, "Nonsense!" They are not military men! How different is it from sending to death! ”

Dou Liang said: "I also know, but if they don't listen, they won't evacuate, you can go and see." ”

The three of them hurriedly got off the city and got on their horses and ran towards the north of the city.

When you arrive at the school grounds, you can see hundreds of people standing on the school grounds from a long distance, holding wooden guns or pitchforks in their hands.

Ma Yue was dumbfounded.

Who are these 800 righteous followers?

There are old people with gray hair, teenagers who have not yet been crowned, and middle-aged men of normal age who are missing an arm.

There is hardly one that can be called a 'soldier'.

But here they stand.

Weak, but firm.

Perhaps, there is also a person who can be called a soldier.

I saw a man walking towards him from the middle of the queue, and the people on the road gave way to him.

Looks like a man of authority.

When this man stood in front of Ma Yue, Ma Yue felt a trace of pressure.

Eight feet tall, with a burly appearance, showing good family upbringing while walking, when Ma Yue approached, he saluted and said: "Lieutenant Ma County, in Xia Fu Xie, for the sake of the eight hundred militia, we will be incorporated into the garrison." ”

Fu Xie, a little familiar, Ma Yue didn't think much about it.

First saluted back, Ma Yue looked at the eight hundred volunteers, gritted his teeth and shook his head.

"Brother Fu, the Xianbei army is about to come to the city, and we are the Han army, and we will repay the country with our lives without regrets. They are all people, and without training, they cannot push the people to death in the city. ”

Fu Xie smiled indifferently, as if he had expected Ma Yue's answer, he said: "I was born here, grew up here, experienced several big battles, and has some training in peacetime, the county lieutenant does not need to be suspicious, this is the time to use the army, please integrate us into the garrison, and we can also have a little more possibility of survival." ”

Ma Yue frowned, nodded and agreed to the man's wish named Fu Xie, and sent someone to summon eight soldiers.

He frowned for another reason, after Cao Hu's death, there were not enough soldiers in Lingzhou, there were only two thousand soldiers before, and eight soldiers were enough, and there was even a song that was empty. But now, if these 800 people are reorganized into the team, the eight soldiers will not be enough.

Ma Yue walked to the middle of the eight hundred righteousness, and he looked at everyone's face and body.

Suddenly, bow in all directions.

"Thank you, Zhujun, live and die with Lingzhou."

"The county lieutenant, please get up."

"What did the county lieutenant say, I was born here, how can I ask the Xianbei people to attack me."

"Later, there will be various troops waiting to come to reorganize, and you should not be impatient."

Saying that, Ma Yue walked towards the county governor, and saw Zhang He and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Fu is determined to defend the city, it is better to stay in the magistrate and join the county lieutenant for the time being, maybe he can think of a strategy to resist the enemy." ”

Fu Xie nodded in agreement, and Ma Yue also said with a smile: "Since this is the case, time is pressing, Brother Fu will go to the county with me and others to talk about the current situation." ”
