Chapter 124: The People Plead
"Since the general has already made a decision, then ask the general to give the order."
Zhao Yunzhan got up and bowed.
Defending the city is actually not what Zhao Yun wants, the danger and limitations are too great, and it is better to ride a horse to directly face the big food to get mobility.
"Ask the general for orders."
The rest of the generals all stood up and shouted in unison.
They are generals, and they obey orders.
"Okay."
Li Yi drank heavily.
Jumped onto the chair, and shouted with solemn eyes, "Zhao Yun listens to the order, I am ordered to be the commander of the white-robed army, lead the three thousand white-robed troops under my command, protect the right wing, and obey the order at any time." ”
"Zhang Liao obeyed the order, I ordered you to be the chief general of the heavy armored cavalry, and lead the five thousand heavy armored cavalry under his command as the vanguard of the middle lane, and give me the formation of the big food soldiers to rush into chaos, and then wait for the opportunity to move."
"Hua Xiong and Deng Ai listen to the order, I order Hua Xiong to be the main general of the Guanning Iron Cavalry, and Deng Ai is the deputy general, leading the five thousand Guanning Iron Cavalry under his command to protect the left flank and obey the order at any time."
"Yanyun's eighteen horsemen listen to the order, and you wait for the eighteen horsemen, who are responsible for killing the generals of the Great Food."
"Xu Zhu and Dian Wei listen to the order, and you and the other two will support the three-way iron cavalry at any time."
Li Yi will be ordered to fall.
The generals clenched their fists and beat their chests.
"We are commanded!"
"Alright, you all go down and get ready, at noon the troops will leave Broken Leaf City and march towards Talas to attract the Great Food Soldiers."
Li Yi waved your hand and asked Zhao Yun and the others to retreat.
And he himself sat back in his chair and fell into deep thought.
Soon.
Footsteps sounded in the conference hall, waking Li Yi up.
Looking up, he asked suspiciously, "General Yan, is there something wrong?" ”
"Little general, the last general just wants to know, what is my mission?" Yan Ruchu asked Li Yi, and there was a faint resentment in his eyes,
"Ugh."
Li Yi was stunned for a moment when he was asked, and then reacted and said, "General Yan, you have only one task, that is, to defend Broken Leaf City, if I am defeated, then please transfer the people of Broken Leaf City to Anxi City." ”
"I will also send an order to Anxi City, so that they can contact you at any time to protect you from leaving, after all, ......"
However, Li Yi has not finished speaking.
Yan Ruchu interrupted, "Little general, needless to say, the last general will not respect the order, I will go to Talas with you." ”
"Nonsense!"
Li Yi scolded, and then said, "General Yan, what can you do if you go?" ”
"My iron rider is not one or two short of you."
"But the people of Shattered Leaf City are different, they need you, they need you to be their backbone!"
"We're leaving, you're leaving, how do you let the people of Shattered Leaf City deal with themselves?"
"If I am defeated at Talus, and you and I are both killed, won't Broken Leaf City be slaughtered by the Great Eaters again?"
"Your mission, although it is to stay in Broken Leaf City, but this is also an alternative battlefield, and the burden on your shoulders is not light at all."
After these words, Yan Ruchu was silent.
Her eyes were aggrieved, and she lowered her head, and thought about Li Yi's words carefully, it was right, she should stay in Broken Leaf City.
Shattered Leaf City needs her even more.
But she had all kinds of reluctance and worry in her heart.
At last.
Yan Ruchu raised his head, looked at Li Yi with white hair and small face, forcibly endured the inexplicable emotions in his heart, and said softly,
"Okay, then I'll stay in Shattered Leaf City, and you should be careful."
After speaking.
Yan Ruchu turned around and strode out of the conference hall.
When Li Yi saw this, he only sighed and shook his head.
Without much thought, he picked up his spear and left the chamber.
Arrive outside the Dowei Mansion.
Li Yi, who was about to turn over and get on the horse, was surrounded by the people running on the street.
They all knelt on the ground and shouted, "Please listen to us." ”
See here.
Li Yi took off his horse's foot, turned around to face the people of Broken Leaf City, and said with a gentle smile, "Fathers, please get up, if you want my Li Yi to help, please tell me." ”
"General."
An old man walked out, bowed to Li Yi, and said, "General, there are now more than 1,500 combatable men and more than 1,000 combatant women in Broken Leaf City. ”
"I heard that the general is going to Talas to fight to the death with the big cattle, and I and the people of Broken Leaf City also want to contribute to the Tang Dynasty and Anxi."
"I implore the general to take in more than 2,500 people and go with the general to Talas to kill the enemy!"
The old man's words shocked Li Yi's small body, and his eyes were slightly red and he asked, "Old man, I want to know how many of these more than 1,500 men are adults?" How many of these thousand women are adults? ”
"This..."
The old man was asked.
However, under Li Yi's gaze, he still replied honestly, "General, there are less than five hundred adult males, and the rest are one thousand underage. And the women, there were less than three hundred, and the rest were minors. ”
"But rest assured, generals, they are not too young. Generals can meet the enemy with guns and horses at the age of eight, and they are all the blood of the descendants of China, and they can also kill thieves and enemies and defend the country like generals. ”
"Old man."
Li Yi's tone was slightly deep, and then he scolded directly, "You guys are really confused! ”
"These children are the roots of your Broken Leaf City!"
"They all went with me to fight against the enemy and died on the battlefield, so can this Broken Leaf City have a future?"
"As the saying goes, if the youth is strong, the country is strong, after all, Datang still depends on these children, and the prosperity of Anxi also depends on these children."
"How can I be a big deal because of a small thing?!"
If it weren't for the fact that I had already taken on this burden, I would have wanted to be an ordinary child. ”
"It's a pity that I can't turn back, but the children of Shattered Leaf City can go back and live the ordinary life they should have."
"I just hope that when they grow up, they can be useful people for the country, instead of accompanying me to give up their lives for nothing."
"In this battle of Talas, as long as I don't die, my soldiers don't die, and the Tang soldiers don't die, how can I let children fight."
"I won't agree to this."
Li Yi was full of emotion and persuaded the people of Broken Leaf City who were present.
Instead of blindly scolding and refusing loudly.
Because Li Yi couldn't bear to yell at them.
These people in Broken Leaf City are all naked.
They were not frightened by the brutality of the Great Eater soldiers, but inspired the blood in their bones, regardless of men, women and children, they were all arrogant and unyielding in the face of the enemy, and there was only one battle.
When the people of Broken Leaf City heard this, their eyes were slightly red and tearful, and they shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
"The general is righteous, we are confused."
"But I'm also unwilling, I want to take revenge myself!"
"Alas. . . Child, you are still young, as the general said, you are all the hope of the Tang Dynasty, and if you want to take revenge, you must become stronger. ”
“。。。”
The people of Broken Leaf City watched as Li Yi turned over and got on his horse, and then rode his horse slowly towards the gate of the city, bending down to salute.
When I got up, I found that the little figure on the war horse was so tall...
