Chapter 188 - The Last General Wishes to Surrender
Because the barrel suitable for making a musket could not be made, Zhao Fan had to continuously strengthen the improvement of the Flying Fish crossbow to ensure that the Mandate of Heaven suppressed the armaments of other warlords.
The 300-step effective firing distance carried by the strengthened Flying Fish Crossbow has completely become a death zone for the soldiers of the Zhu Wen Army, just as a great man in later generations said, the truth is within the range of the cannon, and this sentence is also very suitable for the Heavenly Mandate Army now.
The truth is within a firing distance of three hundred paces.
"Brothers, rush with me!"
Huo Cun tightened the weapon in his hand, looked at the soldiers of the Heavenly Mandate Army who were leisurely placing arrows in the ring array with red eyes, and shouted viciously.
"Kill!"
Under the leadership of Huo Cun, the remaining soldiers of the Zhu Wen army once again cheered up, raised their weapons and rushed towards the enemy in front of them frantically, not afraid of the oncoming crossbow arrows, although from time to time someone fell from the arrow, but none of the soldiers of the Zhu Wen army fled with hind legs.
When the battle came to this point, everyone had gone crazy, since Huo Cun took them to this ghost place, they were like seeing ghosts, they would be found wherever they went, and then they were attacked and driven away, there was simply not a day of peace, and those villagers who were originally docile and cowardly would suddenly burst out and attack them in groups like hungry wolves.
Seeing the brothers around them fall one by one, these soldiers of the Zhu Wen Army were so helpless, this so-called enemy's rear seemed to have turned into a monster with a bloody mouth, constantly devouring them, dragging them into the abyss little by little.
The invisible pressure tormented them all the time, but they did not have the courage to escape, because they still had their families behind them, and if they themselves and others escaped, it would be chilling to think about the methods of the Zhu Wen army to deal with the rebels.
Fighting and not being able to fight, running and not being able to run, now there is only one thought left in the hearts of the soldiers, that is, dying here may be the best relief.
The crazy soldiers of the Zhu Wen Army seemed to have let go of life and death, and their eyes were red and they continued to attack the enemy in front of them, and their comrades kept falling, and someone died every second, but the blood of those soldiers not only did not make the remaining soldiers feel afraid, but greatly stimulated the remaining soldiers.
In the face of the high-intensity attack of the Zhu Wen Army, the soldiers of the Heavenly Mandate Army led by General Liu gradually began to feel the pressure, and the unfatal enemy frantically attacked the military formation of the Heavenly Mandate Army.
"Brothers, the enemy is running out of steam, rush!" Huo Cun waved the weapon in his hand with some strength, and from time to time he pushed aside the crossbow arrows that were shooting at him in front of him, looked at the fewer and fewer soldiers behind him, and shouted hoarsely.
Whether the enemy is going to be unable to hold on, Huo Cun doesn't think so, but I'm afraid that his brothers are really going to be unable to withstand it!
At this moment, a thunderous sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded from all sides of the battlefield, and countless Zhao Fan's army and Tuntian army surrounded the battlefield from all directions, completely cutting off all the retreats of Zhu Wen's army.
But Huo Cun on the battlefield didn't seem to see the situation at this time, he just waved the weapon in his hand frantically, and rushed towards General Liu with red eyes. And the soldiers of the Zhu Wen Army did not hesitate at all, and firmly followed behind Huo Cun.
General Liu looked at the enemy like a mad demon, with a look of admiration in his eyes, although the army in front of him was different from his position, but from the perspective of a soldier, Huo Cun and the army he led were people worthy of his admiration, in such a harsh environment, the enemy did not retreat at all, but continued to attack them, this spirit he recognized very much.
But admiration is admiration, General Liu will not be merciful to let the enemy go, there is an old saying that speaks well, be merciful to the enemy, is cruel to yourself, although General Liu appreciates the enemy's bravery, but will never do the stupid thing of letting the tiger return to the mountain, but if it is just to solicit, you can still try it.
"That young general, the battle has come to this point, why are you still struggling, this general sees that you are quite brave, why don't you abandon the darkness and join us to assist Your Majesty, and return this world to a peaceful world, wouldn't it be happy?"
Huo Cun, who was launching the charge, was stunned for a moment, then glanced at General Liu with an indescribable look, and said with a wry smile, "General, don't say much, you and I are on the battlefield today, either you die or I die, don't say the word surrender." ”
Huo Cun felt bitter for a while, surrender? I want to surrender, but what will happen to my family after I surrender?
As the two talked, the soldiers fighting on both sides also slowed down the attack in their hands, and everyone's eyes fell on the two, as if waiting for a result.
"Even if you don't think about yourself, think about the brothers behind you, whose wives and children are still waiting for them to come home, do you really have the patience to let their parents lose their children, and let their children lose their fathers?" General Liu was slightly stunned and said with some anger.
The soldiers of Zhu Wenjun looked at General Liu, and then looked at Huo Cun, who was trembling a little, their eyes were full of hope for survival, if they surrendered by themselves, then their families would inevitably be liquidated, but if Huo Cun took the lead in surrendering, then their families would not be held accountable, and they themselves could save their lives, but in this way, General Huo's family would probably be ......
Huo Cun frowned when he heard this, and glanced at the soldiers behind him with some hesitation, struggling in his heart. As a soldier, he is always ready to die in battle, but he never wants himself to die in such a meaningless battle, and the soldiers behind him are all henchmen who have followed him for many years, so he is really hesitant at the moment.
At this moment, he is really in a dilemma, surrender, he lives, the soldiers live, but his family will definitely die without a place to be buried, but if he does not surrender, all the people here will die.
"The general doesn't have to worry, Your Majesty has always been benevolent and righteous, if the general is willing to abandon the darkness and serve Your Majesty, Your Majesty will not blame the general and others for the past, and will send someone to take your family to Chang'an, and you will not be worried."
Just when the situation was a bit deadlocked, Zhang Chengye, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly walked out of the carriage and shouted, "Why is the general acting like this, isn't Your Majesty worthy of allegiance as today?" ”
Zhang Chengye's fluttering words completely dispelled the last trace of doubt in Huo Cun's heart, as a senior general of Zhu Wenjun, of course Huo Cun knew what kind of person he was today, even Ma Jianying, who was under Qin Zongquan, was also reused by the emperor after following him, and now he is a very popular minister, so what does he Huo Cun have to worry about?
Huo Cun looked back at the soldiers behind him who had been fighting bloodily for a long time, and after exchanging glances with each other, he finally sighed and dropped the weapon in his hand, and said a little lonely.
"Your Excellency, the Admiral... The last will come. ”
