"Why?"

I said, "Do you really think that you can catch the other party's boss with just these 20,000 people?" ”

Stilwell said: "Even if it doesn't work, it's okay for us to cover up for a while, at least we can avenge the third uncle!" I continued to shake my head and said: "20,000 people in the army of 600,000 people, it is a great luck to be able to retreat, if you want to send you to death, I will not stop you, but don't bother others, Hegis is just temporarily messed up, and it is whimsical that you want to take advantage of the fire to rob." ”

"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law!" Stilwell stood on his horse again, raised his arms and shouted, "Are there any brothers who are willing to work with me?" ”

I saw that he was already crazy, shook my head secretly, and said to Zhang Shilei: "Let our people follow me to withdraw." ”

Zhang Shilei said loudly: "The sword god has an order, retreat!" ”

The soldiers of the Honglie Empire dared to counterattack the sword god in front, with a moment of courage, but neither the number nor the formation was actually suitable for a long-term battle, at this time I gave an order, the whole army turned around, and killed back the way it came, the Hegis army did not know our details, Wu Sizhong's headquarters was gathering at the moment, preparing to deal with the enemy's large-scale counterattack, so they did not pursue, and the enemy army that was left behind us was in a state of anxiety and hesitation, seeing that we returned the same way, no one had the strength to intercept, More than 20,000 of us returned to the clearing without any problems, and Stilwell, knowing that the army's desire was all tied to me, had to sigh and retreat with the army.

When we reached safety, it was already dawn, all the soldiers were exhausted, thinking about the crazy actions of this night, it was like a dream, this battle we used 20,000 remnants of the army to go deep into the hinterland of the Haggis army, rescue Stilwell, not to mention, but also make the other side suspicious, it is really an incredible result. I don't know who shouted "Long live the sword god", and then all the soldiers shouted, in the empty Gobi, "long live long live" The cry was deafening, through this battle, the soldiers raised their eyebrows, washed away the shame of the defeated soldiers, and felt deeply honored, and in everyone's heart, the indomitable courage also returned to the body with the experience of fighting side by side with the sword god.

Stilwell sighed, "If I were you, I would have achieved more than I have now." ”

I glanced at him and didn't speak. In fact, I understand that this battle can be won is really shit luck, speculation accounts for ninety percent of nine, Wu Sizhong heard that the sword god led people to counterattack, must have thought that our people and horses concentrated all the elites in the Hong Lie army, so there was no rash move, our more than 20,000 people are also like a donkey of Qian, if it weren't for Wu Sizhong's assumptions, the consequences would be unimaginable, I was afraid when I thought of this, and all this was for the sake of the young general in front of him who thought he was reckless and brutal, of course, maybe Stilwell could really become a generation of famous generals after experience, He has no shortage of adventurous spirit and bold ideas, and if such a man survives, he is likely to grow into a wise and scheming commander...... We walked slowly, less than 20 miles ahead is the city of Lizhou of the Honglie Empire, Shi Cundao has led the army to retreat safely, and now the three armies are stationed in Lixin Fu Sanzhou.

At this time, the soldier in charge of the temporary pathfinder suddenly galloped back and reported: "General Sword God, a large number of Hegis cavalry were found in front, about 30,000 people, cutting off our retreat. ”

I gasped and said, "How can there be ambushes here?" Could it be that Wu Sizhong really used soldiers like a god, thinking that we would pass through here after robbing the camp, so he arranged for people to be here? "As soon as I finished speaking, I felt that it was wrong, if Wu Sizhong really wanted to annihilate everything, we would have sent someone to kill him from behind.

The soldier who reported the news said: "It seems that the other party is also on the way, they are in our way, and we happen to be in the place where they must pass." ”

Zhang Shilei said: "I know, after the rout of the right army, the cavalry of Hegis has been chasing behind, these people are the pursuers, and now our people have returned to the city, and they are also on their way back to the camp." ”

I said, "What then?" ”

Zhang Shilei frowned and said: "We have to make a quick decision, otherwise if Wu Sizhong's pursuers arrive, plus the enemy in front, we will become the enemy on our backs." ”

I looked at the tired, scarred troops behind me and said, "Do you think our people can withstand a tough battle?" ”

Zhang Shilei was also worried: "There is no other way for today's plan, the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road, I hope they are not much better than us - but the other party is only responsible for the pursuit, and the damage will be less, unlike us who are exhausted after fighting all night." Zhang Shilei said: "Fifth young master, you have to make an idea, do you want to fight or retreat?" ”

I smiled bitterly and said, "I can't beat it, so where can I retreat?" ”

At this time, Stilwell suddenly said: "We are attacked on our backs, why don't they?" ”

I think it's true, now our two groups of people are in the same situation - behind is the enemy's base camp, in front of the enemy army with the same number as themselves, like the cream in the sandwich biscuits, in a dilemma, but from the current point of view our situation is more embarrassing, as Zhang Shilei said, we have gone through a night of hard fighting, people are sleepy, and all arms have it, and the other side is a cavalry, configuration and physical strength are superior to us, if we fight hard, there is no chance of winning even thirty percent.

Before we knew it, we had slowed down our march, and it was reported that the other side was hesitating, apparently hesitating, and I thought for a moment and said, "I'll go and talk to the other general, and it would be best if we could strike two strikes and take each way." ”

Stilwell was stunned and said, "You want to make peace with the enemy?" ”

I glared at him and said, "It's not peace, it's negotiation!" Otherwise, do you have a better way? ”

Stilwell said: "Lizhou City is closer to us, and from the perspective of the situation, we have a geographical advantage. ”

I waved my hand and said, "Don't tell me this, we took advantage of the location from the beginning, how about now?" There's a fart nearby. ”

Stilwell: "You ......"

I ignored him, and still took Zhang Shilei and those people to come to the front of the Heggis army, and saw the black armor on the opposite side, swords and guns flashed, after a night of fighting, Heggis was still a military appearance, and the other party saw that a small group of us stepped forward, staggered the distance with a hula, and was ready to charge at any time.

I was still more than ten meters away from them, and the other party stopped his footsteps and said in a loud voice: "I'm not here to fight, ask your commander to come out and talk to me." ”

The captain of the squad on the opposite side said, "Sign up!" ”

"Stitcha."

At my voice, there was a slight twitch in the Haggis army. The squad leader looked at me fearfully and said, "You...... What do you want to do? ”

I waved my hand and said, "Let your general tell me that you are not qualified." ”

The captain did not think it was angry, on the contrary, he said very respectfully: "Please wait a moment, I will go to Tongbing my general." Not long after he had gone, he returned alone, and I said, "What about you generals?" ”

The captain arched his hand and said: "My general asked me to say hello to Mr. Sword God on my behalf, he is in military affairs, and it is inconvenient to come out to meet Mr. ”

I wondered, "Military affairs? Isn't that the biggest military task right in front of you? ”

Zhang Shilei laughed and said: "This guy is obviously afraid of repeating Chen Zhiyuan's mistakes, lest the fifth young master come and capture the thief first." ”

Suddenly, I couldn't help but squint at the squad leader and said, "I think you still invite him out, you can't be the master of this matter." ”

The squad leader said, "Sir, you might as well talk about it, but if it's a matter of borrowing the way, our general has already ordered it." ”

I was surprised: "What did your general say?" ”

"Our general said that he and Mr. Sword God are destined to meet here, but unfortunately there is some inconvenience for the time being, the two sides meet in a narrow way, although there is no need for each to fight to the death, it is better to fight each other, how about we go back to the camp separately?"

I smiled and said, "It turns out that your general also means this, it seems that he is not a brainless person, can you tell me the name of your general?" ”

The captain said: "Our general said, if Mr. asks and can't hide it, our general's surname is Qin Yiwu." ”

"Qin Yiwu?" I was surprised.

Zhang Shilei suddenly said excitedly: "Qin Yiwu is on the other side, Fifth Young Master, your opportunity to make meritorious service has come again!" ”

I understand what he means, the three major coaches of Hegis - Tan Tai Lang, Wu Si Zhong Qin Yiwu, no matter which of these three people is eliminated, it means that it will be a fatal blow to the enemy, and after the failure to assassinate Tan Tai Lang, this is another great opportunity! But I am now facing the same problem as last time, the sword qi is insufficient, and even if he can enter the encirclement and kill Qin Yiwu with his sword skills and Buddha light, his 30,000 cavalry will inevitably fight back desperately, and our side will definitely not be able to bear it at that time.

Seeing that I was silent, the captain said: "General Qin said that he knows that he has the worry of his surname under the divine power of Mr., but he told the truth that he hopes that we can be open and honest with each other, and if I say something that is not big, I also want to sell Mr. a face, because you and I both know in our hearts that if we talk about combat strength, Mr. is already at the end of the crossbow, and Mr. will not be the first to contact us regardless of the safety of his subordinates, so please Mr. Don't be impulsive, 'My life and death alone are small, Don't hurt the surnames of tens of thousands of soldiers in two families' This is the original words of our general. ”

I was secretly frightened, this Qin Yiwu actually guessed my mind completely, he revealed his identity because he had no fear, both bright and secretly murderous, I have to say that this is a very clever move, I made a decision after a little thought, and said with a smile: "Since General Qin is so understanding, then I will take his affection, anyway, there is still a fight, and I am not in a hurry at this time." I asked, "Then according to General Qin's meaning, which of our two families will make way for each other first?" ”

The captain said, "The general said that everything is up to the gentleman." ”

I thought for a moment and said, "Then let's give your army a ride." I immediately said to Zhang Shilei, "Let our people get out of the way for General Qin to go." ”

Zhang Shilei squeezed his eyebrows at me and made a look, probably thinking that I had something to say about it, so I laughed and said: "Don't have convulsions, tell the soldiers that no one is allowed to do it without permission, and send General Qin away with me." ”

My son always can't sleep well tonight, and what my mother and I are most afraid of is that he is making trouble, and my wife hugged her shoulders and coaxed me for a while, asking me, "What is he doing?" I saw that the little guy was happy at me, and I couldn't help but say with a sad face: "He woke up, ......" in a tone like Ge You in "Big Names......
