The innkeeper saw that he was so confident, and he was a little relieved, so what could he do if he was worried? The worst outcome is to be plundered by the Vietnamese army, as long as you can save your life.

"Bang bang bang!"

A hurried knock on the door broke the silence of the inn.

The shopkeeper of the inn quickly stood up and walked behind the gate of the courtyard and asked cautiously, "Who is it?" ”

There was no answer outside the door, still banging on the door, and there were bursts of high-pitched scolding not far away: "Block the street for me, don't go these two fish that slipped through the net!" ”

The knock on the door became more urgent, and a deliberately suppressed voice sounded: "Fellow countryman, we are the Han army, and now we are being chased and killed by the Yue people, so I can wait and dodge it!" ”

"Han Jun? Where is there a Han army in the city? The shopkeeper of the inn was quite unconvinced and did not dare to open the door rashly.

Outside the door were Meng Tai and Meng Gou, Meng Tai was also injured in the shoulder, they kept squatting and killing the Vietnamese army this night, and finally attracted the attention of the Vietnamese army and set a trap to ambush them.

More than a dozen Han troops were ambushed and all died, leaving only Meng Tai desperately covering Meng Gou, and the two escaped.

Not far away, the heavy footsteps of the soldiers were already sounding, and the Yue soldiers were getting closer and closer, Meng Tai was anxious, and kept explaining: "Fellow countryman, we are really Han army, please save our lives!" ”

Meng Gou also began to beg in Jianning dialect: "The shopkeeper, I am a native of Wei County, I know that your post house is wide and big, so I came to find a place to hide, and I bothered the shopkeeper to save me." ”

When the shopkeeper heard Meng Gou's authentic Jianning dialect, he believed it a little bit, cautiously opened the door, and Meng Tai and Meng Gou rushed in on one side.

I saw Meng Tai and Meng Gou covered in blood, a Han army armor was torn, Meng Tai covered his shoulder with one hand, and the deep knife wound on it was still bleeding.

The innkeeper looked at Meng Gou as if he was a little familiar, and suddenly remembered: "You... Aren't you the second dog among the two brothers begging on East Street? ”

Meng Gou nodded curtly and replied: "It's me, our brothers used to come to the shopkeeper here to beg for bread to eat whenever they were hungry, and the shopkeeper was a kind-hearted person, so I came to ask the shopkeeper to save our lives." ”

"Ergouzi, where is your brother?" Usually the two dogs are inseparable from the big dogs, but now that I see the two dogs alone, the post house shopkeeper can't help but be a little puzzled.

Meng Gou immediately showed a look of sadness and replied in a low voice, "My brother... Dead in battle! ”

The shopkeeper of the post house was silent for a while, he didn't know what to say, even the beggars knew that they would go into battle to kill the enemy, so why worry that the Han army would not win.

"Shopkeeper, my name is Meng Gou now, I'm not a second dog anymore!" Meng Gou raised his head and said resolutely.

The innkeeper nodded: "Meng Gou? Good name! Then he saw the wound on Meng Tai's shoulder that was still bleeding, and hurriedly motioned for the two to enter the hall and enter the hall: "The strong man quickly follow me in to bandage and bandage." ”

Meng Tai and Meng Gou followed the shopkeeper of the post house into the hall, at this time there were several other tenants in the hall were sitting there, and when they saw the shopkeeper of the post house bring in two Han soldiers with tattered clothes, they were suddenly panicked, and someone began to say: "Shopkeeper, why did you bring the Han army in, if this is found by the Yue people, we will all finish!" ”

Zhuge Jun also saw that the shopkeeper of the post house brought in two remnants of the Han army, but at this moment, Meng Tai's face was covered with blood and he was wearing Han army armor, Zhuge Jun had not yet recognized it, and saw that the tall and strong Han army was not lightly injured, so he hurriedly ordered Meng Lingyue: "Yue'er, you go and bring the wound medicine for the teacher to apply to this strong man." ”

Meng Lingyue hurriedly trotted away with her dress when she heard the voice, ready to go to get the medicine.

The shopkeeper of the post house couldn't help frowning at this time and scolded those tenants: "The beggars still have the heart to protect the country and defend the family, but we are well-dressed but we can't accept two Han soldiers who were injured for the fathers and elders of Wei County, what kind of face do they have and steal their lives?" ”

The tenants were reprimanded by the innkeeper like this, and immediately lowered their heads in shame.

After a while, Meng Lingyue took the medicine in three steps and walked up to Meng Tai in two steps to prepare to give him the medicine, but he just looked at the seriously injured Han Jun with some affection, but he didn't think much else.

Meng Tai sat in a corner of the hall in a daze, grinning with a sore shoulder, and didn't care to look at anything else.

"Untie your armor first, and give you some medicine to heal the wound faster." Meng Lingyue half-squatted in front of Meng Tai and had already opened the medicine jar.

Meng Tai only heard a gentle voice, which he was very familiar with, and suddenly raised his head, and sure enough, when he saw that it was his sister, he was a little excited and speechless, and it took a long time to burst out: "You..... Are you Yue'er? ”

Meng Lingyue's heart was instantly heartbroken, and she looked at the face of the person in front of her tremblingly, and when she saw the person in front of her clearly, then tears couldn't stop pouring out, not caring about the blood and mud on Meng Tai's body, she threw herself into Meng Tai's arms and cried: "Brother, I thought you were ...... with your father."

Meng Tai's injured shoulder was pounced on by her, and it instantly hurt greatly, but Meng Tai gritted his teeth and held back, gently patted Meng Lingyue's back with his hand, and said softly: "It's okay, Yue'er." ”

At this time, Meng Tai couldn't say anything, so she could only comfort Meng Lingyue, how much trauma she should have suffered as a seventeen-year-old girl after such a big change.

The shopkeeper of the post house saw Meng Lingyue, a girl, suddenly hugging this strong man of the Han army, and immediately showed a look of shock, hiding his face and not knowing what to say: "This...... This...."

Zhuge Jun saw the situation of the two of them, and recognized Meng Tai after looking closely, and quickly explained to the owner of the post house: "The two are brothers and sisters who were separated in the rebellion, and they are so out of shape when they see each other again, don't blame the shopkeeper!" ”

Only then did the shopkeeper of the post house take away the hand that was covering his face with relief: "I'm like this, it's no wonder!" ”

Meng Tai and Meng Gou had just walked in, and there was a "bang bang" knock outside the door of the post house, this time the knock was even heavier, accompanied by the shouting and scolding of several people: "Open the door for Lao Tzu and be ordered to search for spies!" ”

Meng Gou's face changed, and his heart suddenly stirred, and he looked at Meng Tai with a pleading gaze.

At this time, Meng Tai had also calmed down, and was sitting there with Meng Lingyue dressing his shoulder.

The tenants in the post house suddenly became commotion, and the shopkeeper hurriedly comforted and comforted everyone: "Don't make a sound, the door of this post house is extremely strong, and they can't get in and think that they will retreat when there is no one inside." ”

The shopkeeper of the post house walked to the back of the courtyard gate again, not daring to make a sound, and quietly listening to the movement outside the door.

The Vietnamese soldiers outside knocked on the door more violently, and then kicked the door with their feet from time to time, and the door of the post house kept shaking, holding everyone's heartstrings.

"Play dead, huh? The blood of the spy flowed in front of the door and disappeared, I know that the people inside took in the spy, and then pretend to be dead and wait for the old man to knock on the door and let you really die! A Vietnamese soldier shouted angrily.

This sentence came into the ears of everyone in the post house like thunder, and suddenly everyone's faces turned pale with fright, and even Zhuge Jun panicked.

The shopkeeper of the post house was stunned, and for a while he didn't know whether to open the door or not, and the shoulder wound of Meng Tai, who had been sitting quietly, had been dressed by Meng Lingyue and rigorously bandaged with a ribbon.

Meng Tai suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Meng Gou, go out with me to be bound!" ”

"This ....." Meng Gou hesitated.

"This is a military order!" Meng Tai shouted sternly.

"No!" Meng Gou also looked firm.

They didn't want to endanger everyone here because of themselves, so Meng Tai still decided to take Meng Gou out and let the Vietnamese army deal with it.

The innkeeper was also silent, people are always selfish when faced with life and death choices, and he also wants to live.

Zhuge had the heart to stop it, but at this time he couldn't say anything, and when everyone was silent, they all made a choice.

The shouting and scolding outside became more and more intense, and the Vietnamese army was also anxious, and shouted viciously: "Good! Play dead, right, find a rolling log for Lao Tzu to knock open the door, and kill no one to stay! ”

Everyone in the post house began to look at each other, looking at Meng Tai and Meng Gou who were already looking bad, and now because of the two of them, everyone here had to die.

Suddenly, a panicked shout from a Vietnamese soldier sounded outside the door of the post house: "Oh no! A large number of Han troops took advantage of the night to attack the city, and the east gate had been lost! ”

Another Vietnamese soldier who looked like an officer asked sharply: "Bastard! And what about the generals? ”

"The generals are all drunk at the banquet, and they can't find anyone!"

"Let's go! Hurry up and find the generals! The Vietnamese soldier said.

Outside the courtyard, the sound of squirming and walking away suddenly sounded.

The people in the post house breathed a sigh of relief, and when they looked at Zhuge Jun, their eyes were already full of admiration, it was this old man who said that the Han army would definitely fight back tonight, so they didn't pack their bags and escape.

In the city of Wei County, more than 5,000 Han troops entered the city effortlessly, and Huo Yi and Li Yi rode tall horses and stood on the streets of the city.

Li Yi looked around at the houses destroyed by the Yue people on both sides of the street, and there were still the corpses of innocent people on the side of the street, and his mood was extremely heavy: "The heroes of this big defeat of the Vietnamese army should be the people of this county!" ”

Huo Yi also nodded in agreement, he didn't want to sacrifice the people to achieve victory, but the Vietnamese army had tens of thousands of people, he only had 5,000 Han army reinforcements, and he would be entangled and eaten by the Vietnamese army before entering Wei County, so he could only make this strategy to make the Yue people mistakenly think that Wei County was isolated and helpless, and according to the character of the Yue people, taking the Central Plains county town would definitely produce a military rebellion and looting, so that the Han army could defeat them when the Vietnamese soldiers could not find the generals.

At this moment, the city was already on fire, and the Vietnamese army, which had lost its leader and organization, was vulnerable, and the Han army had already gone to the county guard to kill, and the overall situation was decided.

Huo Yi took out the written memo, and instructed lightly to the soldiers around him: "You take this recital and go to the imperial court to report to Your Majesty, saying that the Jianning Yue army has been defeated, and our major generals can't go further, please send a large army to recover the three counties of Nanzhong as soon as possible!" ”

"No!" The soldiers took the music, turned their horses, and ran out of the city.

Due to the death of Jianning Taishou Guansuo, the Han court is eventful, and a new Taishou has not yet been appointed, Li Yi as the county general temporarily manages Jianning County, not long ago received news from the imperial court, knowing that the imperial court has been recovered, and Huo Yi came to Jianning to meet Li Yi, and learned that the imperial court was still alive before he dared to fight against the water, and used this victory to dedicate this victory to the Han court's recovery.
