"Heifu, I never expected that you saved us, otherwise, we are all Chu Lu, and I am afraid that we will not be able to go back in this life!"

When Zhou Hua came over, he excitedly punched Heifu, but he forgot that his own hand had only been injured, and he immediately squatted on the ground in pain, but he still said with a smile on his face: "Having said that, you are really bold, and you actually went to the Chu people to surrender in person." Hey, Fang Cai is really happy, those Chu people who humiliated me were all killed by me with everyone, holding stones, and snatching weapons! ”

Heifu dragged him up: "General Zhou Bai suffered, if there were no people waiting for you to drag the back of the Chu army to hundreds of people, this battle would not have been so smooth, I don't know what the casualties of the people in the pit were?" ”

It's okay not to mention it, speaking of this, Zhou Hua's face turned gloomy: "We are bare-handed, our armor has also been stripped off, and we are hungry and tired, although the three hundred people tried their best to fight back, at least hundreds of people were dead or seriously injured......"

"It's a shame."

Heifu also sighed, and glanced around, the corpses were covered all over the outskirts of the city, both his own and his enemies, and the number had not yet been counted. And the Chu people who fled in all directions have become small black spots, and the Qin people have no desire to pursue, because Dou Ran has been captured, and the Chu people have no leader, and they are not afraid that they will regain their strength and kill back.

What should be done now is to quickly pack up the captured chariots and horses, count the casualties, and hurry up to protect Li You and continue to run......

At this time, Dongmen Leopard came over, his face was impatient, and his words offset the excitement of Heifu's first command of the battle and the capture of a county duke of Chu.

"Bai General, Huaimu is seriously injured, I'm afraid it's going to fail, you go over and take a look!"

……

Originally, Heifu and Huaimu said that when the main force also rushed in, they could retreat, but once the fight started, how could they say that they would retreat? In the whole battle, the figures of the trapped soldiers were indispensable, so they also suffered the most casualties.

Many people were found in the pile of dead people, a fellow villager Qin Pawn who had followed Heifu since he left Anlu County fell in a pool of blood that gradually solidified, his eyes were round, his body was wounded several times, and there were several Chu people who died with him lying next to him, Ji Ying was leading people to separate them, Qin Pawn moved aside, and the Chu people were left to the crows.

Heifu didn't stop, he kept following the Dongmen Leopard and hurried to a small tree, but saw that the locust wood was leaning against the tree, just like in the head of the outer Yellow City, when Heifu first saw him, the tun chief quietly closed his eyes, his face was pale, and only the undulating chest let him know that he was still alive.

"Locust wood...... You ......"

Heifu's eyes cracked, and he saw that Huaimu had been deeply pierced by a broken spear in the abdomen, and there were also two arrows in his thigh and chest that had only left the feathers.

His left hand, the one that Hefu had bandaged himself, was gone from elbow down!

Huaimu opened his eyes and smiled at the sight of Kuroo kneeling in front of him on one knee.

"Hefu, I'm afraid you can't stop the bleeding this time......"

"Don't speak, maybe you can still ......" Heifu regretted it, at this moment, he only hated that he had ordered Huaimu as the commander of the trapped.

"We, can you win?"

Huaimu tilted his head and asked weakly.

"Win!"

Heifu excitedly said to him: "Great victory! Chu will be captured, and the Chu people will flee in embarrassment, thanks to you, thanks to the robes of the trapped people, you have to hold on, and when you return to the country, you will naturally be rewarded with great merit! ”

Heifu said as he asked people to pull the banner of the Chu people, just trying to cover Huaimu's wounds, but his wounds were too deep and heavy, and the blood soaked the silk banner, but he couldn't stop it......

"That's it."

Huai Mu chuckled: "I still think that if I win this battle, after more than a month, I will be able to sit on the village community sacrifice, hold my wife, brag to my two younger brothers about my bravery on the battlefield, and show off my scars to the township party......"

"But now it seems that I can't do it!"

He coughed violently, foaming at the mouth of blood.

"Hef, can you do something for me......"

"You say!" Hefu gripped his remaining hand tightly, only to feel colder and colder.

"Go to Jingling County for me to see if my two younger brothers have been ransomed from subordinates to commoners? Say again to my wife, who has just been married for a few months......"

"Say what?" Souki's voice grew quieter and quieter, and Heifu could only put his ear to his mouth.

"Just say...... Huaimu broke his promise. ”

"Huaimu can't go back."

"This is the first time that Huaimu has broken his promise."

"And the last ......"

"Let her not wait any longer, find someone in the township, and marry again!"

Heifu felt that his throat was choked and stiff, and he couldn't say anything, so he could only keep nodding his head.

After finishing speaking, Huaimu seemed to be relieved, his eyes began to blur, began to darken, and began to see the people around him clearly, he could only subconsciously stretch out his right hand to the distant sky, as if he wanted to touch something again when he was dying, and then grab something, maybe his wife's warm hand, maybe the fluffy bun of his younger brothers.

Even the hilt of the sword he was most familiar with.

The winter sky in Huaibei is full of white clouds and soft sunshine, but Huaimu is cold.

"I really want to go home......" he smiled and sighed regretfully for his last breath.

……

Captain Li You groaned and opened his eyes, only to find that the afternoon sun was shining through the outside, stabbing his eyes.

"Captain?"

There was a shadow standing on the side of the couch, it was on the order of Heifu, who stayed to take care of Li You's divination, this diviner was a folk herb doctor, when Li You had a fever, he found some herbs in the city, and poured it out for Li You, Heifu was also a dead horse as a live horse doctor at that time, and he never thought that Li You's fever was really retreating!

"I fell asleep...... How long has it been? ”

Li You looked at his chest wrapped in cloth, the wound was still painful, but it had been alleviated a lot, especially the hot burning sensation had disappeared, he slept unsteadily, not only was his body uncomfortable, but he always felt that someone was shouting at him, and something terrible seemed to have happened outside.

"It's been four hours." Bu Cheng had been watching the sun outside by the window to calculate the time, and immediately picked up the bamboo tube and sent it to his lips.

"This is ......," Li You thought it was still the bitter medicine soup that was difficult to swallow.

"It's just water."

So Li You drank it, his lips were chapped, and the warm boiled water was as sweet as honey, and then, Bu Cheng gave him some gruel, and Li You felt that he had regained a little strength, at least he could speak and think.

"What happened when I went to sleep? Hefu went to deceive him, what happened to him? He finally cleared his mind and asked hurriedly.

Bu Cheng bowed down and said: "Dare to sue the Du Lieutenant, in the morning, the hundred generals Xu Yang rebelled and wanted to kidnap the Du Lieutenant to escape, but it has been pacified, and he and his thirty subordinates have been beheaded by the military judge!" ”

"What!"

Li You was shocked, when he was unconscious, the fake five hundred lord Heifu was not in the city, and there was internal strife, which was worth it, did the Chu people take the opportunity to attack?

"That's not true, after Xu Yang and the other rebellions were put down, the hundred generals also came back, half an hour ago in the city to inspire the soldiers, and two minutes ago out of the city to attack the enemy......"

Bu Cheng was actually restless, and then paused: "But what the result is, the villain doesn't know, it's just that the deafening shouting and killing has stopped......"

"I see."

Li You felt that his mind was very confused, and the doubts in his heart were getting deeper and deeper, he was an assertive person, and he did not believe in the words of Bu Cheng. Xu Yang is his old subordinate, although this person's ability is limited, but he won't do such a crazy thing, right? Could it be that there is something hidden in this matter?

But none of this is important anymore, because the scheduled battle has already begun, and even ended, Li You doesn't know, after experiencing an internal strife, can the Qin people still work together, and whether the previously expected breakthrough can be achieved?

There may be three possibilities, first, the Qin people completely defeated the Chu people, and the plan was a perfect success. Second, the Qin people only barely rushed out of the way, and Heifu would break through with the rest of the people, leaving Li You in the city. Third, the Qin people were defeated, and the Chu people entered the city......

If it is the second or third two, then Li You will be completely finished, not only his life, but even his father's career will be greatly affected, and the son of Li Si, the captain of the Qin State Court, was defeated and captured...... What a shame.

Li You even began to think about the way to commit suicide, his father was deeply trusted by King Qin, he would definitely be the prime minister in the future, and he as a son must not affect him!

"Father, if you really can't go back, you will never survive......"

However, as they spoke, heavy footsteps were heard outside......

"Here we are."

Bu Cheng stood up excitedly, and Li You also looked at the door, but they didn't know, whether it was the Chu people or the Qin people who came?

Li You was so shocked that he wanted to sit up and get the sword, but he felt that he was as weak as a sick raccoon, and he didn't even have the strength to commit suicide, so he could only lie on the couch in a daze, waiting for the verdict of fate.

The door was pushed open, and a black figure walked into the room, his armor rattled, he fell to the ground on one knee, and arched his hand towards Li You: "Subordinate Heifu, meet Li Duwei!" ”

Heifu still smelled of blood, and his eyes were red, perhaps because he was blinded by the winter wind and sand......

"Excuse me, how's the battle going?" Seeing that it was Heifu, Li You looked happy, turned sideways and asked with the help of Bu Cheng.

"Captain Todu's blessing, the Chu people are defeated, our army has won a great victory, the siege has been lifted, and you can leave this place at any time!"

"Good, great good!"

Li You breathed a long sigh of relief, it seems that he chose Heifu to be the fake five hundred master, which is an extremely correct choice!

In this way, Xu Yang's death became irrelevant, and Li You didn't even mention the incident, and directly asked about the results of the battle.

Time was pressing, so Hefu simply reported the situation of the count-up by the military judge.

Although the battle was won by a single charge, and it was short-lived, the number of casualties was not small because of the fierce fighting. The 700 Qin people who followed Heifu into the Chu array suffered nearly 200 casualties, especially the 100 trapped soldiers, including Tunchang Huaimu, who were almost half lost and could never return to their hometown. And the three hundred Qin captives were also killed and seriously wounded.

The Chu people died about 400, and another 100 were taken prisoner, and the rest fled, and those who fled from the three directions of the south, south, and north fled were all killed. It is worth mentioning that more than a dozen chariots were trapped in the formation, abandoned by the Chu people, and became the trophies of the Qin army!

"With these horses and carts, those lightly injured soldiers can also be taken away!" So says Heifu.

Li You was not most concerned about this, he asked: "You just said that you captured Hu Gong Douran of Chu State, so the banner of the Chu army has been captured?" ”

"In addition to the flag of Sun Feng, the rest of the flags include one flag of Hu Gong Douran, one flag led by a thousand people, and seven flags of a hundred people......"

"Good! The banner is also a credit, and with them as proof, the number of beheadings this time can also make the domestic officials believe! ”

Li You was very happy, and there is a saying in military law: since the history of the captain, there are all the flags, and those who win the flag will be regarded as the lord they have obtained, and they will be rewarded and persuaded with a clear heart.

The number of beheadings in this battle can even be reported to be seven or eight hundred! Of course, he understood that it was impossible and impossible to bring back the beheadings in this battle and had no time to take them back for counting, so he could only ask the military judge to count the number of reports and then hand over the captured military flag as proof.

In addition to capturing enemy generals, capturing military flags, and beheading four or five hundred ranks, it is also a feat to rescue other troops. As the saying goes, "the former officials abandon their pawns and go north, and the latter officials can cut them and take the reward of their pawns." It means that if the commander at the front deserts his troops and flees, the generals in the rear will be rewarded for killing him and containing his troops.

Li You secretly counted these merits, and looked at Heifu again, with admiration in his heart, but some regrets and even envy, because these merits, if they can be counted on the head of him, the main general, at least they can offset the previous defeat of the army in Xiangcheng, not only do they not have to cut the knight, but they even go up one level!

But this battle, after all, was not fought by him, from deception to Lishi, and then to command and break the enemy, it was all Heifu's performance alone, Li You only fell asleep in the house during this period, at most, as a superior, he could get a little light and reduce some guilt.

Having said that, he was not so cheeky that he took the credit of Heifu as his own, so he reluctantly smiled: "This battle is all due to Heifu's proper command, and the four skills are combined, I'm afraid that I can be promoted to two levels in a row and directly become a public doctor!" ”

However, instead of appearing ecstatic, Heifu bowed down in fear: "Why did the lieutenant say this? In this battle, the reason why we were able to defeat the Chu people, in addition to the soldiers using their lives and working together, didn't it all depend on the strategy set by the commander in advance? ”

"I ...... The plan? Li You blinked, but did not speak, but looked at Heifu and asked him to continue.

Heifu smiled: "I am afraid that because he was too seriously injured, he was in a coma for a while, and he forgot some things. ”

"From sending me to surrender, and then secretly instructing me to go out of the city to attack the enemy's tactical strategy, all of the above are from the mouth of the captain, and the subordinates are just ordered to carry it out! Hefu had heard the saying that 'those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern others'. If you want to talk about merit, it is also the first merit of Li Duwei, a hard-working man! As laborers, the subordinates are satisfied with a little merit and a knighthood, how dare they be insatiable and take great merit for themselves? ”
