Chapter 106: Separation
Chapter 106: Separation
Hangu Pass (one of the earliest Xiongguan fortresses built in Chinese history, because it is closed in the valley, it is as dangerous as a letter, so it is called Hangu Pass)
The 800 warriors led by Mingyue and Fu Xuan finally arrived at Hangu Pass, but the pass was already empty, and there was no one to see in the city of Hangu Pass, let alone any guards, the city was full of dead people and soldiers, apparently after the Huns broke through the pass, they carried out a massacre, and the more Mingyue and the others went inside, the more and more corpses were piled up with dead people......
Mingyue trembled and grabbed Fu Xuan's hand, and said in horror: "Senior brother......"
Fu Xuan held Mingyue's hand tightly and comforted: "Blood debts must be paid in blood......
Mingyue lowered her head and didn't want people to see the fear in her heart, but she couldn't suppress a cold sweat when she held Fu Xuan's hand, Mingyue asked nervously: "Did the Huns go to Chang'an before us?" ”
Fu Xuan also frowned, and when he heard Mingyue's inquiry, he nodded lightly and replied: "It should be, Hangu Pass has been breached, but why is it so Xiongguan not left heavy troops to defend it, I can't figure it out......."
Mingyue listened to Fu Xuan's answer, and looked at the broken Hangu Pass, and her heart was even more desolate.
I only heard Fu Xuan continue: "Hangu Pass is known as "one husband is the pass, ten thousand people are not open", I didn't expect it to be captured so easily, and the Hun iron cavalry was so terrible ......."
After Fu Xuan finished speaking, he paused for a long time, and then said: "This is the place where the ancient sage Lao Tzu wrote the 5,000-word "Tao Te Ching", and it is a holy place of Taoism, and now it has suffered such a catastrophe, hey, ......."
Mingyue listened to Fu Xuan's emotion, and her heart was also sad, and suddenly Mingyue hit a spirit, Taoist holy land? And what about Kuxian? Isn't it Lao Tzu's hometown? Why did both massacres take place in Taoist holy sites? Is it just a coincidence??
Just when Mingyue and Fu Xuan were still sighing, a scout suddenly came to report the military situation in a hurry.
"Report, a large number of stray soldiers and thieves have been found outside the city, the number is about 3,000!" The scout continued: "General Fu Wei has already fought with the thieves! General Fu Cheng is also mobilizing people to go for reinforcements! ”
Mingyue's face turned pale, and she said in her heart: How could the thieves and the stray soldiers know our marching route, and how did they gather so many people to attack where we are? Mingyue's heart suddenly became clear, yes, it must be the soldiers she dismissed and the thieves brought over by the soldiers who fled before!
Mingyue looked at Fu Xuan guiltily, and saw that his face was also full of enlightened expressions, and Mingyue was even more embarrassed......
"It's all my fault, I don't know how to march and fight at all, and I have to command randomly, but I really don't want anyone to be hurt by my decision, but I really didn't expect the result to be like this......"
Fu Xuan looked at Mingyue's guilty and sad appearance, and the original unhappiness in his heart slowly dissipated, Fu Xuan thought: Mingyue is kind, and the starting point is good, but after all, she is just a child, so how can she be blamed?
Thinking of this, Fu Xuan said as if comforting: "Mingyue, don't be like this, no one can expect such a thing, and now is not the time to investigate who is right and who is wrong."
Before Fu Xuan's words fell, another small soldier ran over and shouted loudly: "My lord, it's not good, General Fu Wei has been defeated and killed, General Fu Cheng asked the little one to come and tell the adults, and quickly evacuate Hangu Pass!" ”
As soon as Mingyue heard that Fu Wei had died in battle, her hatred for herself was even more difficult to suppress......
As soon as Fu Xuan heard the news that Fu Wei had died in battle, his heart was also depressed, Fu Wei was his old subordinate, and he was unexpectedly killed, it seems that there are powerful characters in the thieves who came to rob this time, and there are only more than 100 people left around him, and the others are let Fu Cheng take them to resist.
Fu Xuan asked anxiously, "What is the current situation of General Fu Cheng?" ”
"My lord, General Fu Cheng is besieged by several times the enemy, and he can't support it anymore, please evacuate Hangu Pass quickly!"
Fu Xuan nodded, he knew that Fu Cheng meant to buy time for himself and Mingyue's retreat, now that the number of enemies was several times that of himself, if he took the rest of the people to rescue Fu Cheng, then it would definitely be annihilated.
Fu Xuan did not hesitate any longer, took Mingyue and Fu Lan, Fu Mei and the remaining hundred warriors, and quickly retreated to the city gate in the direction of Chang'an.
When we were about to go out of the door, we didn't want to, another group of more than 200 thieves were rushing towards us......
The sky is gradually getting darker, although the exit is close at hand, but if you don't block this group of people, if you blindly escape, you will die even worse, because it is too close, it is easy to be caught up, for today's plan, only to kill this gang of thieves with all your strength, fortunately, the hundred warriors around Fu Xuan are the most elite group of people, although the enemy is twice as many as his own, but there is still a fight!
"Brothers! Kill me with me!! Fu Xuan rode his horse and took the lead in rushing forward to kill, and the warriors behind Fu Xuan also roared and rushed over.
Mingyue and Fu Lan, Fu Mei were also surrounded by more than a dozen Fu clan soldiers at the same time and quickly retreated outside the city, Mingyue understood that the reason why Fu Xuan was desperate to kill the enemy was to give himself a little more time to escape......
The thieves on the opposite side thought that they had twice as many troops as us, and they must be able to deal with these hundred or so people, but they didn't want these people to be trapped beasts, and they didn't care about their lives at all.
Just when the two sides were in a state of anxiety, a large number of thieves appeared, and they were killing Fu Xuan's department at full speed.
Fu Xuan's heart hurt again, it seems that Fu Cheng has also died in battle......
"Brothers, there is no way back, give me !!" Fu Xuan's eyes were already red, and he kept slashing and killing the thieves who approached him.
Fu Xuan's eyes suddenly looked in the direction of Mingyue for some reason, Mingyue's already flustered heart suddenly seemed to have found the backbone, but at this time, a large number of thieves had gradually surrounded Fu Xuan, and some of the thieves had even fought with the personal soldiers who protected Mingyue!
The battle became even more tragic, and Mingyue and Fu Xuan were also scattered because of the repeated impact of the thief army......
Mingyue was protected by seven or eight Fu soldiers and rushed out of the city gate to flee outside the city, Fu Xuan saw this scene, although he was very anxious, but he was powerless, and now he had to kill the enemy more desperately to find Mingyue as soon as possible.
Fu Mei and Fu Lan are both by Mingyue's side, these two little girls, where have they seen this kind of scene, they can't walk at all with weak legs, Fu Mei is holding the pipa deadly, and her face has long been frightened without blood, and the soldiers have to carry Mingyue and the three of them one by one, and escape as soon as possible.
But how can you run fast? Fortunately, most of the thieves were attracted by Fu Xuan, which allowed Mingyue and the remaining three soldiers to escape from the encirclement.
A grove in the west outside Hanya Pass
Mingyue, Fu Mei, Fu Lan and the three pro-soldiers who had been carrying us on their backs were hiding in a small wood, because they had to take care of the three of us, so the three pro-soldiers had no way to leave this dangerous place quickly, and even when they found that they no longer had the physical strength to continue to run away with us, they could only choose to stay in this grove first, recover their strength, and then think about the next path in the long run......
Fu Lan's hand kept clutching Mingyue's clothes tightly, and her body was trembling because of fear. And Fu Mei was still holding the pipa tightly, her eyes widened, looking around, and her body was constantly trembling......
Mingyue is also very scared and anxious now, because of her own kindness, let Fu Xuan's department fall into such a situation, not to mention, and let so many people die because of herself, especially now that Fu Xuan's life and death are unknown, Mingyue herself doesn't know where she is, how should this be?
