Chapter 129: Evacuation of Xichuan (I)
Later, Wen Han told Li You's analysis one by one. Zhao Yun realized Wen Han's intentions and bowed his hand.
"The Lord can focus on the overall situation, which is really a blessing for the people of the Northwest. What Li Xianjiu said is reasonable, Cao Mengde's ambition is surging, and as Li Xianjiu said, once our army withdraws from Xichuan, Meng Shu and the big-eared thief will inevitably have a dragon and tiger fight, and when they are both defeated, our army can rest, and it is easy to retake Brazil and Zitong counties!! ”
Wei Yan heard that Zhao Yun also agreed, his eyes rolled, his teeth snapped, he surrendered his hand to ask for his life, and shouted.
"The lord has made up his mind, and he doesn't dare to make a mistake. A certain is willing to lead troops to guard the Jiameng Pass!! ”
Wen Han listened to the words, but politely refused.
"Wen Chang and don't be anxious, I haven't made a choice yet. After our army withdraws from the realm of Xichuan, I will make some arrangements. Now you and Zilong are ready to withdraw the army. ”
As soon as Wen Han's voice fell, Zhao Yun answered the order. When Wei Yan saw Wen Han's refusal, he was very displeased in his heart, but he didn't dare to cross it again. As a result, the Northwest sergeants guarding Zitong City prepared for the withdrawal of their troops. A few days later, Wen Han took most of the Zitong wealth and grain, and the rest was distributed to the people, and the three armies moved together and rushed to Jiameng Pass. Among them, many Zitong people, fearing that after the Northwest Army withdrew, the barbarians would see that there was no money and food, and they would be angry, and they all hoped to withdraw with the Northwest Army. Wen Han also did not want the people to be brutalized by the barbarians, so he tried his best to take away most of the people of Zitong, let the front army protect the people and hurry, and ordered Zhao Yun to lead the rear army to prepare for the pursuit of the barbarians.
It is said that Meng won a lot of fanfare, commanded 100,000 Dong soldiers, and the momentum was huge, and he was killing Zitong all over the mountains, and he was bound to fight to the death with Wen Han to avenge his repeated defeats. Meng Shouqin led 30,000 barbarian soldiers, marched all the way, and was about to rush to the realm of Zitong, but he listened to the detailed reply, Wen Han had already led the army to withdraw from Zitong. When Meng Shu heard this, he thought that Wen Han saw that his army was strong, and he fled in fear of the battle, and laughed wildly, so he quickly ordered his brother Meng You to lead 50,000 barbarian soldiers to take Zitong City first, and Meng Yu led 30,000 barbarian soldiers to pursue.
However, it was said that Wen Han was accompanied by more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians, thousands of large and small cars, and countless backpackers. Suddenly, there was a whistle in Malay.
"Meng Huo's army has reached the realm of Zitong, and at the moment, Meng Huo personally led 30,000 troops and rushed to pursue. Meng You led 50,000 soldiers and horses to seize Zitong City. When a member of the Northwest General heard this, his face changed, and he quickly persuaded Wen Han.
"The thief has arrived in Zitong, now the lord has more than 780,000 people, and he travels more than 10 miles a day. It's better to abandon the people for the time being, and put the first step forward!! ”
When Wen Han heard this, his eyes widened, and two rays of light shot out, aggressively, and shouted.
"Those who do great things must put people first. Now the people want to be mine, why should they abandon it? Moreover, the barbarians are of a foreign race, and those who are not of my race will have different hearts. If we abandon them, and they become angry with the people, how can I bear it in my heart!? Pass on my command, and anyone who reinforces the people will be beheaded!! ”
As soon as Wen Han's order fell, those who wanted to abandon the people hurriedly broke off this idea. When the people heard Wen Han's words, they were all overturned. Wen Han hugged the people and walked slowly. After walking for two days, Li You's face suddenly changed, and he said to Wen Han.
"My lord, the pursuers will be here soon. You can send someone to the rear army to teach General Zhao to prepare early. ”
When Wen Han heard this, he bowed his head heavily, and sent someone to herald the order. Zhao Yun heard the order, so he ordered the rear army of 3,000 soldiers and horses to move slowly, rushed to a valley, temporarily stopped, and then ordered the sergeants to scatter around to investigate. That night, the scouts reported that Meng Huojun had arrived several miles away. When Zhao Yun heard this, he taught the sergeants to lie in ambush on both sides of the valley, waiting for the opportunity to move. At the beginning of the night, Meng Shu led 30,000 barbarian soldiers and poured into the valley all over the mountains. Suddenly, a gong sounded, and the mud and rocks on both sides of the valley mountain fell, and the rolling wood bounced away. Meng Shu thought that Wen Han was frightened by his 100,000 barbarian soldiers, and he was bent on pursuit, how could he have expected that there would be an ambush here. In an instant, 30,000 barbarian soldiers were stoned to death by mud and rocks, rolling wood, and countless people were stoned, and there was chaos in the valley road. At this moment, the drums on both sides of the valley road shook violently, and I don't know how many soldiers and horses. Meng Shu was suddenly frightened, thinking that most of the soldiers and horses in the northwest were ambushed here, and Le Ma ran out of the chaotic army and fled. The barbarians also pushed each other, each fled for their lives, the barbarians turned on their backs, trampled on each other, countless people, and the screams were endless. Meng Huo's face was like ashes, and he led a group of soldiers and horses to escape from the valley road, and he could not travel more than a few miles. Suddenly, the shouts of killing in front of him suddenly erupted. On the side of the road, a group of people and horses, headed by a general, wearing bright silver armor, a beautiful white brocade robe, a pair of sharp and majestic sword eyes, and holding a gentian bright silver spear, it was Zhao Yunye. As soon as the barbarians saw that it would be Zhao Yun, everyone was frightened, and before Meng Shu could react, his subordinates fled in all directions, lest they would not be able to escape.
"Barbarian thief, today will take your dog's life!!"
Zhao Yun shouted, and the horse flew away, and the jade lion in the night rushed towards Meng Shu like a white flash of light. Meng Shu was already frightened, and hurriedly reined in his horse and fled. Zhao Yun led his troops to fight over, but the barbarians were in a panic, only caring about fleeing for their lives, and had no power to fight back, and were blindly slaughtered by Zhao Yunjun. Meng Huo hurried back to the valley road, shouting and ordering the sergeant to go and stop it. Zhao Yun rode his horse and raised his gun, rushing left and right in the chaotic army, as if entering a no-man's land, killing faster and faster, and rushing straight to Meng Shu. Meng Yu saw that Zhao Yun was about to rush in, and saw that most of the soldiers did not dare to resist, just when he was very anxious, he saw that Ma Chao was not far away, and hurriedly shouted.
"General Ma, come and save me!!"
Meng Yu shouted, but Ma Chao didn't react, as if he couldn't hear. Seeing this, Meng Shu shouted a few more times in a hurry. Ma Chao still didn't move. At this moment, Zhao Yun was killed, and he stabbed Meng Shu in his vest with a gun. Meng Shu heard the loud sound of breaking the air behind him, and subconsciously pulled himself to avoid it. Zhao Yun stabbed the air with a shot, picked up the gentian bright silver spear and swept towards Meng Huo's head. Meng Shu hurriedly turned around, twisted the shield to resist, and with a loud bang, Meng Shu's face changed greatly, the tiger's mouth in his hand cracked, and the blood flowed endlessly. Life and death are on the line, Meng Shu also forced out the blood, tried his best to swing the gentian bright silver spear suddenly, and then turned around, the dancing knife at Zhao Yun slashed, Zhao Yun's sword eyes shimmered, or block or avoid, Meng Shu attacked for seven or eight rounds, but the big knife in his hand could not touch half of Zhao Yun's hair.
At the same time, Zhao Yun secretly suspected that he had been preparing for Ma Chao to fight, but found that Ma Chao had led his troops to retreat away, completely ignoring Meng Yu's life or death. Such a strange situation made Zhao Yun suspicious.
"What the hell is this Ma Mengqi having!?"
Zhao Yunjian's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly attacked Meng Shu. Meng Shu was in danger of being killed by Zhao Yun, and while resisting, he shouted Ma Chao with a scream. Zhao Yun deliberately left some spare strength, and secretly found that Ma Chao was still unmoved, and he was even more puzzled in his heart. At this moment, several barbarians rushed over and attacked Zhao Yun together. Zhao Yun danced the gentian bright silver spear, and within more than ten he, he stabbed several people to death in a row. Meng Shu had already taken the opportunity to escape. Zhao Yun's mind was racing, and seeing that the barbarian army was in chaos, he didn't do much entanglement, so he suddenly turned his horse to kill the chaotic army and led the army to withdraw. Zhao Yun can be said to have come suddenly and gone quickly. After Zhao Yun evacuated for a long time, the drumming stopped everywhere, and the barbarian soldiers slowly stopped the chaos, and the barbarian generals hurriedly reorganized their troops and horses. Ma Chao had been secretly watching the battle situation, and when he saw that Zhao Yun could have killed Meng Shu, but he deliberately left some strength to release him, and suddenly the entire handsome lion face became hideous.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the rebel army.
"Ma Mengqi, why didn't you save you when you saw death, what evil intentions do you have!!!
I saw Meng Shu glaring at the pair of green eyes, and rushed towards Ma Chao with murderous energy. Ma Chao's face tightened, and before he could come back to his senses, he saw a big knife slashing towards him. Ma Chao hurriedly twisted the gun, and a spark suddenly erupted at the place where the two weapons collided. Meng Shou's sword strength was particularly huge, and at a glance, he knew that he really intended to kill Ma Chao. Meng Shu gritted his teeth, and when he saw that he didn't succeed, he chopped and slashed with the knife, Ma Chao didn't dare to be reckless, so he had to keep resisting with his gun, shouting 'not guilty' in his mouth. When Meng Shu heard this, he was even more angry, and roared.
"You were not far from me just now, and you clearly saw Zhao Yun fighting with me, but you didn't come to the rescue!! You must want to use the hand of Zhao Zilong to eradicate me, so that you can take the opportunity to take the position of my barbarian king after my death!!! ”
Ma Chao's face changed, and Meng Shu could be said to have expressed his evil intentions in one word. I saw that Meng Shu was slashing more and more violently, and he was bent on putting Ma Chao to death, and the barbarians around him were all shocked when they saw that they didn't know why. Don't look at Meng Xu, who was repeatedly killed by Zhao Yun and had no power to fight back. That's because Zhao Yun's gun style is exquisite, and it is impossible to prevent it. If you rely on this strength alone, Meng Shu is a natural strongman, and this round of fierce attacks can force Ma Chao into danger.
Ma Chaoshi was stunned, suddenly became vigorous, and slammed away the big knife that Meng Shu had chopped. Meng Shu didn't expect it for a while, and was shocked by Ma Chao's shot, so that even people and horses retreated several meters. Meng Shu stopped castration suddenly, and suddenly became even more angry, and roared like thunder.
"Wow!! Ma Mengqi, you are really a wolf with ambition, and you dare to make a move on me!! Come on, why don't you catch this madman with me!! ”
When Ma Chao heard this, he hurriedly shouted.
"The king is angry!! You have repeatedly wanted to put Chao to death, and Chao has to save your life, so you are offended, and you are really forced to do so!! What's more, my lord and the king are allies, how can Chao have the intention of harming, and the matter of seizing the throne is even more groundless, and it cannot be trusted, I hope the king will see it!! ”
When Meng Shu heard this, he sneered, and he unconsciously recalled in his mind that since he was defeated by Zitong a month ago, and Ma Chao saved his wife in the chaos, the two have often frowned. Later, after Meng Shu returned to the barbarian realm, in order to lobby various tribes, he sent Mrs. Zhurong there, and Ma Chao even used the excuse to accompany her. Meng Shu secretly sent someone to monitor, and it was rumored that in the five or six days at that time, except for resting on weekdays, the two were almost inseparable and had a very good relationship. Meng Shu was furious when he heard this, and he was about to eradicate Ma Chao at that time, but he thought that the battle in Zitong was undecided, and if he was killed, Liu Bei would inevitably take revenge for it, and the two alliances ended in nothing, and finally cheapened Wen Han, the enemy. Therefore, Meng Shu suppressed his killing intent first, thinking that after he pacified Zitong, he would report the matter to Liu Bei. Liu Bei has a reputation for benevolence and righteousness, if he is willing to deal with Ma Chao impartially, it is naturally good, but if he protects his shortcomings, Meng Shu is not afraid of holding 100,000 heavy soldiers.
Meng Shu had already had the intention of eradicating Ma Chao, but he expected that Ma Chao also had the intention of harming him, so he didn't save him when he saw death, and wanted to borrow a knife to kill him.
Meng was about to open his mouth. At this moment, a coquettish shout sounded, and Mrs. Zhurong led a rattan armor soldier to rush over.
"Stop!! What do you mean, my lord!? ”
I saw Mrs. Zhurong glaring at Jiao Jiao angrily and glaring at Meng Shu fiercely. When Meng Shu saw this, his face suddenly darkened, but he was afraid of his wife's obscenity, so he didn't dare to attack, so he suppressed his anger and pointed at Ma Chao and shouted.
"This wicked man will not save him when he sees death, and wants to harm me, but how can he keep it!?"
When Mrs. Zhurong heard this, her eyes unconsciously rippled, and she looked at Ma Chao. Ma Chao was innocent and sued for the past. When Mrs. Zhurong heard this, her face sank, and she opened her mouth to say.
