Chapter 117: Pleading
These two sergeants, saying this, immediately aroused the homesickness of everyone in the tent, and the cry was even louder. Wen Han, who was beside him, also unconsciously shed two lines of tears. The dozens of guards also heard the words in the tent, moved their emotions, and cried in a low voice. Wen Han sighed again, his steps suddenly seemed to be as heavy as a thousand catties, and he left slowly with heavy steps.
Until dawn the next day, Wen Han couldn't sleep all night, his mind was full of pictures of his relatives in the township, his heart was extremely uncomfortable, and he sighed incessantly. After a while, the sergeant brought a basin of water, Wen Han got up to wash, and when he saw the water, he suddenly found that his temples were frosty and white, and he was stunned for a while. Suddenly, the water surface in his eyes changed again, and suddenly the figures of Cai Yan and Xiao Wenshun appeared, and then it changed again, and several people appeared in a row, including Zhou Long and his wife, horse trainers, Xi Zhicai and others. The feelings of thought suddenly shrouded Wen Han's mind.
In an instant, it was noon. Wen Han summoned Li You to see him, and after a while, Li You arrived, and his face was a little sad. Wen Han and Li You glanced at each other, and Li You seemed to sense a trace of sadness in Wen Han's eyes, and gave up.
"I heard that last night the lord patrolled the school field at night, and I heard the soldiers in the tent complain. The war is imminent, but these people are shaking the morale of the army, and their subordinates have captured them one by one, I don't know how the lord will punish them? ”
Wen Han listened, frowned, and shouted.
"People can be ruthless! How could Zhongwen capture it!! Quickly pass my order, let everyone go, and appease me!! ”
Li You's face froze, and he said sharply.
"The so-called no rules, no circle. The army has a law, how can it be connived!? Besides, if these people don't know how to shut up, the sergeants are homesick and tired of war, and the army is in turmoil. How can such soldiers and horses help the Lord to fight for a great cause!? ”
"Nonsense!! If it weren't for these sergeants who sacrificed their lives to fight for me, how could I have the prestige I have now, and be able to divide one side and dominate the northwest!? What's more, my extraordinary life's ambition is to drive the world with public opinion, these soldiers are the husbands and children of the people, our army has been fighting in Sichuan for several years, and the people in the township are all looking forward to it, and they are frightened all day long, and they wash their faces with tears. What is the sin of these sergeants who miss their relatives in their hometown!? If I am punished, how can I have the face to see the father in the country!? ”
Wen Han was furious, and every word was loud and loud. When Li You heard this, his face changed, and he suddenly closed his eyes, and only then did he open his eyes when Wen Han's words fell, and bowed respectfully.
"The lord is sympathetic to the sergeants and cares about the people, which is quite the style of an ancient emperor. Subordinates admire. The lord but rest assured that Yu did not capture those sergeants, but only warned them. However, now the sergeant's homesickness and war-weariness are extremely serious, and if they are ignored, it will cause a catastrophe in the long run, and I hope that the lord will think twice. ”
Wen Han listened to it and groaned for a while, when he was trying to make a plan. Suddenly, a sergeant hurriedly came to report, saying that Meng had raised 30,000 troops and had been killed to the realm of Zitong. As soon as this report fell, Wen Han's face suddenly changed drastically. When Li You heard this, he just frowned and sighed, as if he had expected it.
It turned out that after Meng Huo was driven out of Zitong by Wen Han, he fled back to Nanban overnight, gathered the chiefs of various caves, and talked about the defeat of Zitong. These chiefs were already looking forward to Meng Huo's horse, and immediately mobilized the soldiers of the cave clan to help in the battle. Meng Shou then gathered 30,000 barbarian soldiers, made a comeback, and killed Zitong.
"The barbarians are making a comeback, and at the moment our army is unstable, the lord must not go to war easily, and he should stabilize the army's heart first."
Wen Han listened to this, his face was calm, he suppressed the anger in his heart, and shook his head heavily. When Wen Han and Li You discussed, a banquet was held in the city that night, and the generals gathered in the county office, and the sergeants in the army all set up seats in the school grounds. During the banquet, the dishes brought up were all hometown dishes, and most of the sergeants cried when they saw it, touched the scene, drank the wine, and most of them cried. Wen Han and the generals were in the county office, and they heard the crying again and again, and everyone looked heavy. Wen Han and Li You glanced at each other, and actually made an agreement with each general in private. When the generals heard this, they were all shocked, and then they all swelled up in ecstasy. At the beginning of the night, Wen Han suddenly led the generals to the school ground, and when the sergeants saw Wen Han coming, they stopped crying and attended to greet them. Wen Han walked to the point platform, and the sergeants came one after another, and there was a sea of people.
Wen Han saw that most of the sergeants had tears on their faces, their expressions froze, and they actually lowered their figures, and suddenly made an amazing move. I saw Wen Han arch his hands and make an apology to the sergeants. Seeing this, the sergeants' faces changed greatly, and before they came back to their senses, they heard Wen Han open his mouth.
"Ladies and gentlemen, a certain Wen Bufan was just a humble man in his early years, but fortunately, thanks to your life, he was able to dominate the northwest and become famous in the world. In the past, the Han family was lonely, the princes chased the Central Plains, the yellow turban thieves ravaged the mountains and rivers, although the world was big, but the people did not have a place to live in peace. In the troubled times, the people are like water and fire, and they are miserable.
Today, the chaos is gradually calming down, and the forces of Cao, Wen, Sun, and Liu are each on one side, and the people are a little well-being. However, the troubled times have not yet ended, and the country has not been unified one day, and it is difficult for the peaceful and prosperous era to come. Although he is sparse in talent, his ambition in life is to take the well-being of the people in the world as his own responsibility. Therefore, we have gathered heroes from all walks of life and tried their best to complement each other. A certain dare not live up to the wishes of the people, and always hope to be able to dominate the country as soon as possible. In recent years, I have fought many battles, hoping to succeed as soon as possible, but I have ignored your hard work.
I know that you are far away from home, fighting in Sichuan, seeing your comrades die one by one, and some of you have lost your brother and brother, and with the passage of time, you feel homesick. I know my sins, and I would like to ask you for my guilt!! ”
As soon as Wen Han's words fell, all the sergeants were unexpected, and they said a hundred things, and each one was not guilty. Wen Han bowed his hand again and shouted in a condensed voice.
"I know that you are homesick, but now the situation is not stable, and every inch of this place depends on you and those heroic sacrifices. I don't dare to make any mistakes. I also hope that you will do your best to help, and promise that in the near future, I will definitely bring you back to your hometown and reunite with your relatives!! ”
Although Wen Han's voice was not loud, it shook the hearts of the sergeants. I saw a group of sergeants kneeling down one after another, and most of them burst into tears and said in unison.
"The military marquis is benevolent and righteous, we are willing to fight to the death!!"
Although Wen Han did not say when he would be able to bring the sergeant back to his hometown, for some reason, no one doubted it. Subsequently, Wen Han led the generals to drink and feast with the sergeants, and everyone had no distinction in military rank, and their identities were like relatives. During the feast, many people cried loudly, and some people laughed loudly. This night, the entire Zitong City was indulged in a cry and laughter, and in the hearts of everyone, there was a yearning for the arrival of a peaceful and prosperous era.
A few days later, Wen Han heard that Meng Shu had led the barbarian army dozens of miles outside the city. Wen Han listened, led Li You, led hundreds of horsemen to explore the road, rushed to a river, Wen Han asked the guide officer, the guide officer did not dare to slacken, and reported it urgently, this river is called the Luohu River, the water here is slow, it can be used as a trench, in order to block the barbarians. Wen Han heard this, and felt reasonable, so he ordered soldiers and horses to build a large number of buildings by the river, and set up camps for several days, and ordered three large camps to wait for the barbarians.
But it was said that Meng was led by 30,000 barbarian soldiers, and he came with hatred. Approaching the Tiger River, Meng was led to 10,000 sword brand barbarians in the front, and he fought directly in the front village. Wen Han heard that Meng was coming, so he picked up his gun and mounted his horse, and the generals on the left and right crowded out. Wen Han fixed his eyes and saw that Meng Shu had changed into a suit, wearing rhino leather armor, a scarlet helmet on his head, holding a card in his left hand, holding a knife in his right hand, riding a red-haired cow, and insulting him unconsciously. Wen Han frowned suddenly, and saw a woman wearing a red battle robe, flame armor, and a feather carved helmet beside him, who was extremely bewitching, dressed like a flame burning, like a demon snake-like body, which made people feel dry and dry. Wen Han was not confused by her charm, but he felt that this woman was murderous, as if she was about to pull out a peerless sword. Wen Han saw it again, with five huge flying knives in his back, eight long marks in his hands, and sat down and rode a curly-haired red rabbit horse. Then to the generals beside him, secretly said to be careful of the female general of the barbarian army, don't be confused by her beauty, and underestimate the enemy. The generals listened to the order and secretly watched out. Only Wei Yan smiled disdainfully, and his eyes showed a bit of greed, as if he wanted to remove the armor on the female general's body and explore the wonder.
When Meng Shu saw Wei Yan's gaze, he was immediately furious and roared angrily. It turned out that the charming female general was the wife of Meng Shu, and the legend was that she was a descendant of the fire god Zhurong, so the barbarians respected her as Mrs. Zhurong.
"Shameless villain, dare to peep at this king's wife, and see this king take your dog's eyes!!"
Meng Yu shouted angrily, slapped up and sat down on the red-haired cow, and rushed over with a fierce momentum. When Wei Yan heard this, he shouted loudly, and Pegasus came to meet Meng Shu. Meng Shu arrived and slashed with a big knife. Wei Yan struggled to swing the knife away, and then quickly drew the knife, and looked at Meng Shou's neck to cut off. Meng Shu hurriedly resisted with his shield, Wei Yan's knife slashed very violently, Meng Shu's shield moved, Wei Yan's knife suddenly turned, and then slashed at Meng Huo's breastplate. Meng Shou hurriedly resisted the knife, roared loudly, and smashed Wei Yan with a shield in his left hand. Wei Yan didn't dodge, he slashed violently, and after cutting through Meng Huo's big knife, he quickly hit Meng Huo's shield again. Meng Huo was forced to retreat again and again by this knife style. Seeing this, the sergeants of the Northwest Army shouted and cheered. On the other hand, on the side of the barbarians, it was silent. Meng was so angry that his eyes widened, and his sword and shield waved non-stop, attacking Wei Yan. Wei Yan danced the knife and slowly entangled with it, and he was at ease, and even threw a look at Mrs. Zhurong in his spare time. When Meng saw this, he was so angry that he was about to lose his mind, so he forced out the strength to eat milk, accelerated the offensive, and kept attacking. Mrs. Zhurong saw that Meng Huo was angry, and the moves were out of order, so she shook her head secretly and muttered.
"This is a reckless man!"
At this moment, Wei Yan sold a flaw, Meng Huo slashed into the air with a knife, and Wei Yan shot two rays of light in an instant, slashing at Meng Shu's head. Meng Shu couldn't catch the momentum for a while, and when he saw the big knife coming, his face suddenly changed drastically. At the last moment, there was a sudden loud noise, and before everyone could respond, they saw a huge flying knife that suddenly shot towards Wei Yan. Wei Yan hurriedly blocked the knife, and with a bang, his face changed slightly, and he secretly said that the flying knife was powerful. Meng Yu took the opportunity to stabilize the chaos and used all his strength to hope that Wei Yan would raise his knife and slash away. Suddenly, there was another sound of breaking the air, but this time it was a small knife that flew in, and it was Meng Shu who shot it. Meng Shu was taken aback, and hurriedly drew his knife to block it, this knife was extremely fast, Meng Huo could barely resist it, and he was scared into a cold sweat, and before Wei Yan came to attack, he hurriedly slapped the red-haired cow and retreated, not forgetting to scold.
"Which shameless villain, the secret weapon hurts people!?"
When the Northwest Army heard that Meng Huo was the first wicked person to sue him, they scolded in unison for being shameless. Under the sound of shouting and scolding, Meng Huo's green eyes turned, and suddenly reined in the red-haired cow and fled back to the formation. When Wei Yan saw that Meng was trying to escape, he immediately pursued him. As Meng Huo walked back, he hurriedly threw a look at Mrs. Zhurong, who understood it and quickly took another big knife in his hand. Wen Han saw it clearly, fearing that Wei Yan would lose the enemy, so he quickly ordered Zhao Yun to help in the battle. Zhao Yun stepped out in response, took the bow and arrow in his hand, and pulled the bow. Saying that Wei Yan was chasing, suddenly Meng Yu fell back and avoided it, and then he heard a piercing sound of breaking the air, and seeing a flying knife suddenly shooting close, Wei Yan was startled and hurriedly twisted the knife to block. At this moment, an arrow had already flew, crashing into the flying knife. Wei Yan hadn't come back to his senses yet, but when he saw Meng Huo coming back to kill, he hurriedly shook his spirits and fought with Meng Huo. Mrs. Zhurong saw that the two were handing over, patted the curly-haired red rabbit horse, and rushed to help the battle with the eight long standards. Suddenly, there was another arrow, and Mrs. Zhurong hurriedly picked up the long mark to block it. Seeing that the battle situation was not good, Meng Shu immediately opened his position, retreated into the formation with Mrs. Zhurong, and then quickly ordered more than 10,000 dongding, each dancing with swords and cards, and clashing back and forth.
Wei Yan and Zhao Yun came to resist one after another, each dancing with swords and guns, killing pieces of blood. Li You saw that these barbarians were very powerful, and said a few quick words to Wen Han, and Wen Han listened to the words, so he ordered the sergeants to beat drums and withdraw the troops. Most of the soldiers and horses in the northwest withdrew to the village, and Zhao Yun and Wei Yan rushed to kill for a while, and they also withdrew.
