Chapter 137: Zhou Ningsheng captures Meng Yi
Tan Li, Li Zhi and Xiahou Jin, led the way by the head of the guards, hurried to the stables.
Two groups of men were gathered around the dirty, stinking stables, swords raised, glaring at each other and cursing incessantly.
Seeing that the situation was tense, Li Zhi hurriedly squeezed into the crowd and shouted, "It's all against the sky?!" ”
When everyone saw Li Zhi coming here, they were a little restrained, and hurriedly put down the sword in their hands and apologized to Li Zhi.
Meng Yi leaned against the corner of the wall under the support of the two soldiers, and said to Li Zhi in a weak tone, "It's all because of me, don't blame them, general!" ”
After speaking, Meng Yi staggered towards Li Zhi with a pale face.
"Stand down!" Tan Li rebuked everyone, and immediately patted Li Zhi lightly on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, "The general should focus on the overall situation, and only Meng Yi is the best candidate!" ”
After Li Zhi nodded, he hurriedly stepped forward to support Meng Yi, who was stumbling, "The general is seriously injured, don't work hard!" ”
Meng Yi smiled gloomily, "For the sake of the general, he has long put life and death out of the way, but he is not willing to die like this......"
Li Zhi was overjoyed in his heart, knowing that the opportunity was coming, so he took the opportunity to pick up the conversation, "Is the general willing to help Da Xu solve his difficulties?" ”
Meng Yi didn't understand what he meant, looked at Li Zhi blankly and confusedly, and said with a wry smile, "I'm like this...... How can you still bear the burden of killing the enemy? ”
"No, no!" Li Zhi couldn't wait to reply, "As long as the general can still put on his armor and get on the horse, he can help Da Xu solve his difficulties!" ”
Seeing Meng Yi's doubts, Tan Li stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Wen Qianke still remembers Guazhou, not far away, where there are still 20,000 troops stationed in Xu Feng. ”
Meng Yi roughly guessed at this time and asked, "Do you want me to fight my way out of the encirclement and ask for help?" ”
"There are not only Xu Feng's 20,000 military horses there, but also Chu Yan from the Beida Camp." Xiahou Jin nodded again and again, "The general and Xu Feng have always had a close relationship, and in this autumn of survival, this burden must be a general!" ”
Meng Yi hesitated for a moment and asked, "How many days do I have?" ”
Li Zhi and Tan Li were all embarrassed when they heard this, and they stopped talking again. Only Xiahou Jin replied without thinking, "Back and forth for a maximum of seven days!" ”
Hearing this, Meng Yi couldn't believe his ears, and asked in surprise, "Do you know the marching speed of 20,000 military horses?" It will take nearly ten days to come here from Guazhou to come here, no matter how fast it is......"
"Counting the general's itinerary, it will be twelve or three days......" Li Zhi was stunned in his heart, raised his head solemnly, and lamented, "Don't talk about the fifteenth, even if it is ten days, I am afraid that it will not last!" ”
Xiahou Jin hurriedly began to pace back and forth, complaining repeatedly, "This doesn't work, that doesn't work!" I'm going to tie up His Majesty and force him to abandon the city and retreat!" ”
"Ba Yuan can't talk nonsense!" Li Zhi scolded with a grim face, "Your Majesty's refusal to retreat so far must be justified!" All we need to do as courtiers is to swear allegiance to the death! ”
"Then you'll have to try it!" Tan Li said with a sad expression, "No matter how long you can hold on, you have to hurry up and let Wen Qian go for help!" At least there is a glimmer of life! ”
After speaking, Tan Li looked at Meng Yi again and asked worriedly, "Is this Wen Qian's injury...... How do you succeed in breaking through? ”
"It's all right," Meng Yi replied quite confidently, "although the surrounding area is surrounded by enemy troops, there is a small road behind the north gate that leads directly to Guazhou, from where I can break through." ”
Hearing this, the three of them showed joy in their eyes, and hurriedly asked, "If you break through from there, how many days will it take?" ”
Meng Yi pondered for a moment and replied, "I don't stop, day and night, three days is enough!" ”
"Then it's still at least half a month......" Li Zhi looked at Tan Li wistfully, "Mr. knows more about the south than we do, but is there any way to hold on to half a moon?" ”
Tan Li saw that everyone was putting their hopes on himself, so he could only rack his brains and think about it.
After about half a pillar of incense, Tan Li finally spoke, "Lin Shang's army has been stationed for some time since he came, and he doesn't seem to be in a hurry to attack. Although I don't know why, I can personally go to their army and try to mediate the delay. ”
"But I want Your Majesty to know about this......" Li Zhi was shocked and shuddered when he thought of the consequences.
"It is said that Wenchen does not love money, military generals do not hesitate to die, and the world is peaceful. But Wenchen should also do it! Speaking of this, Tan Li took a breath and smiled calmly, "All the consequences are borne by me and me!" At present, saving the lives of Daxu Jiangshan Sheji and His Majesty is the top priority! ”
"Since Mr. has said so, then accept my worship first!" After Li Zhi finished speaking, he knelt down and arched his hand, "Please leave it all to Mr." ”
Tan Li looked frightened, and hurriedly helped Li Zhi up, "What is the general doing, please get up quickly!" The old man didn't dare to accept such a big gift from the general! ”
After speaking, he instructed Meng Yidao, "Wen Qian must be careful in this trip, if you encounter an enemy army, you must not delay the battle!" ”
Meng Yi agreed, but Li Zhi added, "I will send more than ten men and horses to the general to accompany him for protection!" ”
"No!" Meng Yi looked confident, and refused without thinking, "There are many people, and I am enough for one person!" ”
In the second half of the night, Meng Yi didn't care about the old and new injuries, and went out of the north gate single-handedly, and went straight to the direction of Guazhou along the sheep intestine path.
On the way, in the depths of a dense forest, he suddenly heard the sound of killing, Meng Yi hurriedly tightened the reins, raised his gun and looked around vigilantly.
It was dark and terrifying, and there was no fire, Meng Yi was furious, and shouted loudly, "I am Jingjiang Meng Wenqian, what kind of ability is it for a bold spear thief to hide in the shadows, but you dare to come out and fight me?" ”
Suddenly a person came from the depths of the darkness with a torch and stepped on a horse, Meng Yi was taken aback by looking at him by the light of the fire, and hurriedly dismounted to greet him, "The last general will meet Lord Zhou Ning!" ”
Zhou Ning looked at it coldly for a long time, and after ordering the left and right to withdraw the torches, he asked, "The general is in such a hurry, but he wants to go to Guazhou to move rescue troops?" ”
Meng Yi did not dare to deceive when he heard this, and told the truth.
Zhou Ning nodded, then turned his head and whispered to the dark place in the forest, "Wentai, everything is as you expected, it's time to show up!" ”
Xu Yun slowly rode out of the forest, and smiled at Meng Yi, "The general listens to my advice-the road ahead is full of dangers, turn around and go back quickly!" ”
Meng Yi was very confused about this sudden everything, he didn't know why Zhou Ning suddenly appeared here, and he didn't understand why he said this to himself.
"Do you know that Your Majesty is in danger now?" Meng Yi asked.
Hearing this, Zhou Ning turned his face and asked Xu Yun with a smile, "Wentai, do you feel the loyalty of Nan Daying?" ”
Xu Yun replied with a smile, "It seems that everyone in the Nanda camp has the same problems as Han Xiaozhi, and there are no loyal ministers except them." ”
Meng Yi couldn't understand the meaning of their words, and frowned and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Zhou Ning didn't want to say more to him, but kept urging him to return to the city immediately. Meng Yi'an could accept this and refused to listen to the order.
"Is the general planning to forcibly kill him?" Zhou Ning saw Meng Yi's thoughts, and said, "Do you want to rebel!" ”
"The last general doesn't dare," Meng Yi was not afraid, and replied with his head held high, "The last general only knows that for the sake of His Majesty's safety and the country of Daxu, even if he sacrifices my life, he will not hesitate." ”
After Zhou Ning turned his head and smiled at Xu Yun, he suddenly pointed at Meng Yi and said sharply, "Then this official will fulfill you!" ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw Xu Yun wave his big hand, and suddenly a large net fell from the sky and trapped Meng Yituan.
Dozens of sword and axe hands surrounded him, and the bright cold light made Meng Yi's heart angry, and he was eager to break away but couldn't use his strength. Every time I exert force, I still feel that all the wounds on my body are aching.
Looking at Meng Yi who was dying and struggling in front of them, Zhou Ning and Xu Yun seemed to be admiring a plaything that they were playing with in the palm of their hands, and laughed at him quite proudly, "This net is specially prepared for you!" Not only was it stained with water, but it was also smeared with salt. The more you struggle, the more miserable you become! ”
"You bastards!" Meng Yi's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared at Zhou Ning with a hideous face, "You group of rebellious ministers and thieves, do you want to rebel!" ”
"It's your Nan Daying who wants to rebel!" Zhou Ning's face showed a cold light and sneered, "By Your Majesty's order, I have been waiting for you here for a long time!" ”
After speaking, Meng Yi was taken into custody.
After everyone retreated, Xu Yunfang asked, "How does the teacher think the enemy army should be broken?" ”
"How do I break it?" Zhou Ning seemed to be smiling, and suddenly pointed his head with his finger, "If you go outside, you must first settle inside, all the plans are in Your Majesty's mind!" ”
Xu Yun was worried, "I think we should let Nanying and the enemy army be consumed first, and then annihilate one by one." ”
Zhou Ning listened but disagreed, "Don't forget, Han Xiaozhi is not dead yet!" If you let the Nanda battalion retreat from the enemy, it will be difficult to clean them up! ”
"Having said that, but ......" When the words came to his mouth, Xu Yun suddenly felt that it was not appropriate, and hurriedly reorganized and changed his words, "The more than 100,000 enemy troops are about to attack the city!" ”
"Wentai, ah......" Zhou Ning smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Why are you so depressed?" Didn't Your Majesty let us wait for Meng Yi here......"
"So......" Xu Yun suddenly realized, and asked cautiously tentatively, "What does the teacher mean...... Your Majesty is ready to withdraw your troops? ”
Zhou Ning laughed and said quite proudly, "Didn't you just let Meng Yi cross the road?" Safe and sound! ”
Xu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, "In this case, then we should immediately prepare for the matter after Your Majesty returns to Guazhou, after all, there are still 20,000 troops and horses from the Nanda Battalion there......"
"Wentai, you are all good, only one point," Zhou Ning shook his head and pretended to lament, "It's a dead eye!" ”
Xu Yun didn't understand, but listened to Zhou Ning explain, "Sometimes don't think about things too complicated!" As I said, Your Majesty has a comprehensive plan, so why should we take matters into our own hands? Do you also want to learn from them? ”
Xu Yun was reminded by Zhou Ning, and he already understood the general situation, nodded his head again and again, and then smiled and ordered the ambushed military horses to retreat back to the camp together.
