Huandu, an ordinary house.

This is the secret stronghold of Hou Qing, the leader of the Qin State.

Now the ghost army is locked in Wuxia Pass, it is not easy to enter and exit, in order to protect Sun Qi's safety, Hou Qing arranged him here in concealment.

In the room, Sun Qi shook his head slightly: "Ridiculous, King Huan is so ridiculous, he actually ceded Zhenyang in order to negotiate peace with the ghost clan, he is the prince of the Central Plains, this move is equivalent to showing that the Huan country is willing to surrender to the ghost army." ”

"But the general still has to be loyal to such a king." Hou Qing took the opportunity to say.

"Nope." Sun Qi said: "Although Sun Qi is not talented, he also knows loyalty and treachery, such a monarch, betraying his compatriots in the nation, and saving his life, which is despicable." ”

It is normal for the former countries to compete for hegemony, cede land from each other, or form alliances, because everyone will govern the place and the people well.

But what King Huan cut was given to the invading alien race, and the meaning is completely different.

Now that the matter has spread, in the entire Central Plains, I don't know how many people are scolding King Huan.

Hou Qing said again: "In addition, what does the general think about that Yan Zheng's matter?" ”

Sun Qi said: "This person is iron-clad, has national righteousness in his heart, disregards his own safety, and would rather die than retreat, he is a real hero!" It's just a pity, under the hands of Xiang Ge's ......"

"Yes, how sad it is for heroes to be oppressed by the rats." Hou Qing sighed, and then changed his words: "By the way, I don't know what the general's analysis of the current war is. ”

"No, no, no." Sun Qi waved his hand and said, "We are in Huandu, and we can only understand the general situation of the Allied war, and we will never be able to grasp the battle situation, so we can't make any plans." ”

It's not that he is modest, Hou Qing also nodded when he heard this: "Okay, I'll refill the general's cup of tea, it's almost cold." ”

"Why are you so polite to me?"

Hou Qing didn't hide it: "I don't hope that the general can enter Qin and help my king." ”

"Did I say I wouldn't go?" Sun Qi said funny.

"Huh?" Hearing this, Hou Qing's eyes widened at first, and then he was overjoyed.

At the same time, the Huan Palace.

Guo Kai played, bowed his hand and said: "King Qiyu, Yan Zheng disobeyed the military order and refused to withdraw the army, which caused the ghost king to be furious, held our country accountable, and almost let the peace event end without a problem, the minister thinks that Yan Zheng should be convicted of treason!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, before King Huan could respond, Qiu Rong had already stood up and sneered: "Lord Guo, General Yan Zheng, desperately protect our country's land and cover the evacuation of the people, what is the fault of being framed by you like this!" ”

"He doesn't obey military orders! Fight without permission! Isn't this treason!? Guo Kai asked rhetorically.

Qiu Rong didn't bother to pay attention to him, and directly faced King Huan, and Zhengse said: "King, Weichen dares to assert that if the imperial court determines that General Yan Zheng is treasonous, then next, it will not be the people of Huandi who are boiling, but the world is boiling!" ”

His words were categorical, and after speaking, he glanced at Guo Kai and said coldly: "Master Guo can try it!" See if the picture is true! ”

"You!" Guo Kai was choked.

"That's it!" King Huan waved his hand: "Yan Zheng's matter, there is no need to mention it again, this king has already asked him to withdraw, it is he who wants to die, he has to fight with the ghost clan, and he can't complain about others." ”

For a general who desperately resisted foreign enemies, he didn't admit his merits, and he actually said such things.

Qiu Rong shook his head secretly, he didn't want to speak in the court anymore.

A few days later [55 fo], the front line at the South Pass.

Today is the eighth assault of the ghost army.

Five thousand soldiers, although they did not give an inch, but after all, there was a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides, and at this time in the battle, there were not many people in Yan Zheng's department.

Fortunately, in the past few days, many righteous people have come to help, otherwise, it is very likely that they will not be able to hold it today.

These rangers have some skills, especially the overlord Yang Wei, the ghost army who died under his knife today, I don't know how many.

Right now, it's evening, and the sun is setting, and it's orange.

Outside the South Pass, there were piles of corpses, piles of stones, carved feathers and oblique insertions, and rivers of blood.

Yan Zheng stood in the middle of the city, covered in blood, followed by several commanders and some knights.

He quietly looked out of the city, knowing in his heart that he could no longer hold it.

After a while, a general ran up quickly, clasped his fists and said, "General, the count has been completed, and the soldiers' military cards have been collected." ”

"Yes." Yan Zheng nodded: "The brothers who died in the battle are all buried, they are all heroes of our nation!" These military cards must not be lost! ”

His face was blurred by enemy blood, and he couldn't see his true face clearly.

As he spoke, he also looked at Yang Wei and said, "Give the military cards to Yang Daxia for safekeeping." ”

"Yes!" The general is commanded.

"Report~~~~" At this time, another soldier ran up and knelt down on one knee and said: "General, Zhenyang City and the surrounding people have all been evacuated. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Sure!" The soldier replied simply.

"Good!" Yan Zheng's spirits were greatly lifted, and after so many days, he finally grinned and said, "The task of our department has finally been completed!" Now, you can withdraw! ”

"Huh?" When several commanders heard this, they didn't react a little.

Yan Zheng glanced around and said, "The soldiers are fighting to the death!" In exchange for the lives of 1.3 million people! But after all, the disparity in strength, the enemy is outnumbered, and the task of guarding has been completed, so there is no need to make unnecessary sacrifices now! ”

As he spoke, he looked at a commander again, and Zhengse explained: "Take these last three hundred brothers and withdraw to a safe place!" Protect them! This is the military order that General Ben gave you! ”

"No!" The commander of the thousand was shocked.

"Hurry down and prepare to evacuate!"

"Yes!"

All the generals retreated with their fists clenched, and after everyone left, Yang Wei moved the corners of his mouth: "General Yan, listen to your intentions, don't you withdraw?" ”

Yang Wei, the tyrant, is a figure as famous as Ye Qingyan in the rivers and lakes.

He is so chivalrous and deeply admires Yan Zheng's feats, so he came to help him.

Yan Zheng looked at him, smiled slightly and shook his head: "I can't withdraw, my duty is to guard the South Pass." ”

"But the General!" Yang Wei was anxious: "As you said, now that the people have been evacuated, we have won this battle!" Staying any longer is a senseless sacrifice! ”

"No!" Yan Zheng looked at him and said, "This is not a senseless sacrifice, I just want to tell the people of the country that the ghost clan is not terrible, as long as we are united, we can completely defeat them!" And if my death can arouse the hearts of the people of the country to resist, Yan Zheng has no regrets even if he dies! ”

What he said was so righteous that Yang Wei's eyes turned red: "General......"

"Serving the country with oneself is Yan Zhengping's ambition in life, Yang Daxia, thank you very much......"
