Chapter 1388: The Han Flag World (78) Pursuit
Night, the bright moonlight poured down from the sky, the air came with a faint fragrance of flowers, in this era of frequent wars, a rare piece of tranquility, the south gate of Taizhou, in a squeaky sound was opened, a green clothes Zhou Yu led the horse, only with two personal soldiers, standing at the gate of the city, turned around, and said to a cadre of generals who came to see him off: "Everyone, send you a thousand miles, there will be a farewell, the military affairs are busy, so let's stop here." There is no time to see each other in the future, and all the gentlemen take care of themselves. ”
"General, take care!" The generals of the Southern Army led by Wang Ming bent down deeply.
Taking a deep look at these comrades-in-arms who had been with him for seven or eight years, Zhou Yu sighed, turned over on the war horse, turned the horse's head around, and never looked back, all the way to the distance, and disappeared into the night in a moment.
In the city, in Zhou Yu's former residence, Meng Yong sat in the place where Zhou Yu had sat before, slowly flipping through the official documents on the case, the door sounded softly, and an entourage strode in, "Master Hou, Zhou Yu has left, Wang Ming and other generals sent him out of the south gate." ”
"Got it!" Meng Yong didn't look up, and said lightly.
"Wait!" But the man did not depart. "Zhou Yu is a key criminal named by the general, so let him leave like this, how will he explain it in the future? What's more, Zhou Yu's crime of assassinating Wang Jia is confirmed. ”
Meng Yong sat up straight and looked at the entourage in front of him, "You also saw the situation at that time, if we insist on arresting Zhou Yu, we are afraid that it will provoke a mutiny on the spot, this person is deeply supported by the Southern Army, and these seven or eight years are enough for them to cultivate deep feelings." And Zhou Yu is indeed a hero in the world, I can't bear to kill him. ”
The entourage took a breath: "Master Hou, now he has left Taizhou." ”
Meng Yong looked at the other party and said with a smile: "I don't know what you Black Ice Platform are going to do. Don't want to know either. ”
The entourage nodded knowingly, "Yes, the subordinates understand, Master Hou doesn't know, there are some things that should have been done by us." Hou Ye, the subordinate went. ”
"You go, go, and you don't have to come back. Go back to Xianyang directly and tell General Lu. The Southern Army will do what he planned. Meng Yong said.
"Yes!" The attendant bowed down and gently closed the door.
Time passed slowly, and Meng Yong finally finished reading the thick file on the big case, which was the details of the army officers of the Southern Army and the distribution of logistics supplies that Zhou Yu had sorted out when he left, which were all needed by Meng Yong, who had just taken over the army. Covering the file, Meng Yong raised his head and looked at the empty hall with intent.
There was a crackling sound, and the light burst slightly. But Meng Yong was startled, reached out and rubbed his temples, and called softly: "Someone! ”
A soldier entered, but it was Meng Yong's own family soldier.
"What do you command?"
"You go to Wang Ming immediately. Tell him that half an hour ago, the people of Black Ice Terrace had left the city. Meng Yong commanded.
Jia Ding was stunned, "Waiting for the master." We can pretend we don't know about it. ”
"Is it possible?" Meng Yong chuckled: "Whether Zhou Yu was captured by the people of the Black Ice Platform or killed by them on the spot, I can't get out of it." The generals of the Southern Army have deep feelings for Zhou Yu, in this way, even if they don't treat me well, they will deviate from Germany, what I want is not to be a general, a group of generals who are obedient to the sun, what I want to do is to be a general like my father, do you understand? Go and tell Wang Ming, as for what Wang Ming will do, we don't care, I have done everything I should help. ”
"Understood, Master Hou."
The three horses walked leisurely under the moonlight with the sound of crisp hooves, and Zhou Yu didn't even hold the reins, relying on the horses to choose the road independently.
"General, where are we going?" A personal soldier rode a horse to catch up with Zhou Yu in front and asked softly.
"Where to go?" Zhou Yu asked a little dazedly, and then shook his head, "For a while, I don't know where to go, the Qin State can't stay any longer, except for the Southern Army, I'm afraid that most of the Qin people want to eat my flesh and sleep on my skin." Erhu, do you regret following me now? Over the years, I have been wandering all the way, and I have finally settled down for a few years, and then I am about to start wandering again. ”
"Where did the general come from, Da Hu and I have been following the general for more than ten years, since I was in Yan Kingdom, I have served in front of the general, and I will not regret it at any time." The second tiger said angrily.
"I'm sorry for you. It's almost forty people, and there is not even a mother-in-law. Zhou Yu sighed: "I am the one who has involved you." Now I don't know where I'm going, and I don't know what I'm going to do in the future, so I can only take one step at a time. ”
"No matter where the general goes, the two of us will definitely follow the general." Big Tiger said loudly on the side. "The conscience of those people in the Southern Army has been eaten by dogs, over the years, how good the general has been to them, he has never treated them slowly, but when it comes to the end, they have all become turtles with shrunken heads."
"This can't be blamed on them, they are all Qin people, the Qin State is now facing a deep crisis, for the sake of the Qin State, they can only abandon me, this does not mean that they are wrong." Zhou Yu said with a smile.
"King Qin obviously didn't kill us, this must be Lu Chao's calculation, I think even Meng Yong knows it, but they still frame the general with a clear conscience."
"History is written by the victors, and now that Lu Chaosheng is victorious, it is natural that whatever he says is what he says, not to mention, three people become tigers, and if there are many people, it will naturally come true." Zhou Yu smiled: "I figured out such a thing many years ago, but I regret that I have never been a winner." ”
"General, why don't we go to Chu State, Han State is our enemy, we must not be able to go there, and Qin State will not be able to stay." Two Tiger Road.
"Chu State? I'm afraid it's not too peaceful there. "Zhou Yu is currently fighting in the south, what is Lu Chao going to do, he has roughly guessed that if he doesn't deal well with Qu Wan, it will be a big defeat and a loss." Next, the southern army will definitely pretend to be desperate and ask Qu Wan to surrender, and the matter of my expulsion, the southern army will inevitably keep it secret, I think this letter asking for surrender must be sent in my name, in this way, Qu Wan is afraid that he will believe seventy or eighty percent, and when the southern army and Xuanyiwei suddenly attack, Qu Wan will suffer a big loss. ”
"General, otherwise, we will go to Qu Wan, and use this as a step to promotion, presumably the King of Chu will definitely not treat the general lightly." The big tiger said viciously: "If he is unkind, he can't blame us for being unjust." ”
"Nonsense!" Zhou Yu's face changed suddenly, "If we do this, wouldn't we trap the brothers of the Southern Army to death, the Chu people in the Southern Land originally outnumbered the Qin Army, if Qu Wan knew the inside story of the Qin Army and set a trap, tens of thousands of brothers in the Southern Army died without a place to be buried, Dahu, you have been with them for seven or eight years, isn't there the slightest brotherhood?" ”
"I, I'm just sorry for the general." The big tiger blushed and whispered.
"But just ask for a clear conscience." Zhou Yu said softly. "In the future, we will no longer be generals, we will not be soldiers, so let's be idlers, let's walk around and look around!"
"Yes, General. After more than ten years of fighting, to be honest, we are also tired of crookedness, since the general wants to walk around, we will accompany the general, one day the general is tired, let's find a place to settle down, find a mother-in-law, and give birth to a bunch of dolls. The tiger laughed.
"That's good." Zhou Yu also chuckled, "That kind of life is really desirable!" ”
The three of them were talking and laughing to themselves, and suddenly there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves behind them, and when they looked back, more than a dozen torches in the distance were moving rapidly towards this side, and by the faint light of the torches, they saw the color of the knight's clothes on the horse, and the three of them suddenly changed color.
"Meng Yong, this bastard, is a human in front of him, a ghost behind his back, and he is playing yin with us." The big tiger roared angrily, and pulled out his knife with a choked sound, "General, go quickly, I will resist with the second tiger for a while." ”
"Let's go together, you two, how can you hold it low." Zhou Yu sighed: "Don't you want to let me go?" ”
The two tigers didn't speak, and a whip was whipped on the war horse under Zhou Yu's crotch, and the war horse neighed and galloped forward, and the two tigers followed closely together.
There was a sound of angry scolding and scolding behind him, and two waves of people and horses, one after the other, rushed wildly on the road.
Behind him there was a swishing sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air, the three of them lay on the saddle, just kept whipping the war horses, the horses of the three were selected by thousands, whether it was endurance or sprint, they were all the best choices, as long as they survived this section, the other party's horses would inevitably be overwhelmed.
Running wildly, the two tigers stepped off the war horse and suddenly stumbled, the hind hooves were soft, and they fell to the ground in a wail, and the two tigers on the horse were frightened, and they rolled on the ground, and when they stood up, they saw that one of their war horses' hind hooves was actually pierced by arrows.
"Big Tiger, protect the general and go first, I'll break the back!" The second tiger shouted, drew his knife, clenched his hands tightly, and stood in the middle of the road.
The horse's hooves behind him slowed down, followed by and ran back, Erhu turned around, but saw Zhou Yu and Dahu both rushed back, "Since you can't go, let's die together!" Zhou Yu's face was indifferent, and the knife in his hand was already out of its sheath.
After this delay, more than a dozen knights had already rushed over, "General Zhou, the last general is Luo Yishui." I want to ask the general to go to Xianyang to stay for a while. ”
Zhou Yu said coldly: "What if I don't want to? ”
Luo Yishui laughed: "General, I can't help you!" Commanding thousands of troops and horses to fight, we can't even compare with the general, but to say that this kind of capture of prisoners and fight alone, the general is only afraid that he is not our opponent, the general is a person with status, why do you need to fight that trapped beast, you will inevitably lose your dignity. ”
"I'm a military general in the army, and I'm used to fighting people, but it's not decent, if you want to arrest me, then let's see if you have this weight."
"General Zhou, that's going to offend!" Luo Yishui sneered, waved his hand, and said, "Above, General Zhou wants to live, and the other two don't care whether they live or die." (To be continued.) )
