Chapter 103: True Face (Wen Chou)
In the dense forest, the forest fire that came with the wind had spread in the whirring wind, and Yuan Shao, who drove everyone away, led the army to gallop with his horsepower, but did not let the fire catch up.
In order to allow the returning Wenchou soldiers to escape, Yuan Shao had already left their horses to stand in place and wait, but the fire was much faster than that of the Wenchou soldiers, and most of the horses fled and ran back the same way.
By the time Wen Chou arrived with the remnants of the soldiers, the remaining horses were no longer enough for everyone to escape, and due to the increase in the fire, the smoke that could not be discharged had begun to cover the official road, and if he stayed here for too long, it would be difficult to have a chance to live.
Everyone understood the truth, and suddenly it became noisy, after all, no one wanted to stay and wait for death.
Seeing this situation, Wen Chou was also quite embarrassed, but now that the time is not waiting, thinking more will only wipe everyone out.
With his eyes staring, Wen Chou made a decision in an instant, raised his hands and shouted, "Soldiers, be quiet." ”
Usually Wen Chou is quite dignified in the army, and this voice made all the soldiers quiet down a lot, and they all turned their heads to look at Wen Chou, wanting to hear Wen Chou's decision.
Looking at these soldiers who had just escaped from the fire, all of them were disgraced and unkempt, Wen Chou couldn't help but feel a little like a stalk, and almost couldn't bear to say his orders, but the increasingly thick smoke around him reminded Wen Chou all the time that he must be fast, he must be fast.
With red eyes, Wen Chou shouted in a deep voice with a pained expression: "All those who are not injured, immediately two people will flee with one horse, and the rest of the people will continue to move forward!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the army was in an uproar, but not a single one of them raised objections, and the wounded soldiers only watched with red eyes, or pushed their unwounded comrades on their horses, without insult or jealousy, only a voice of entrustment echoed here.
"Brother, when you see my old mother, tell her that the clown baby can't give her filial piety."
"Brother, let my daughter-in-law, who has just passed the door, remarry, and say that I divorced her."
"Brother, let my younger brother do his filial piety on my behalf and serve the two elders in the family well."
……
Many words echoed here, and I don't know when, the eyes of every soldier turned red, and some men couldn't help but shed tears.
Wen Chou's eyes gradually moistened, for fear of being seen by others, and deliberately turned his head to avoid everyone's attention.
Although there were many entrustments, everyone did not forget that they were in danger now, and soon except for the last horse, the rest of the horses left here had already galloped away with the two of them.
There are still some soldiers who are not injured here, but they have no intention of leaving, and the two deputy commanders beside Wen Chou are not injured, but they follow Wen Chou from beginning to end and do not move a step.
At this time, there was only one horse left, and everyone naturally left it to Wen Chou, and the two guards also stepped forward directly to lead the horse, brought it to Wen Chou, and waited for Wen Chou to get on the horse.
Slowly looking up at the rest of the soldiers, the corners of Wen Chou's mouth suddenly raised a happy smile, and then just when everyone was dumbfounded, he stepped forward and patted the shoulders of the two guards, and ordered: "You two, get on the horse." ”
"Your Excellency." The guard clenched his fists and shouted.
"This is a military order." Without waiting for the guards to persuade him, Wen Chou widened his eyes and said sharply in an unquestionable tone.
The two guards glanced at each other, knowing that they couldn't change it, so they could only reply in a trembling voice: "No." ”
After getting up to say goodbye to Wen Chou, the two guards turned around and got on their horses, glanced at Wen Chou reluctantly, and then turned their horses' heads and rode away.
After they left, Wen Chou straightened his waist and shouted, "Why should we wait here to die? It's better to fight to the end, so as not to die aggrieved, and if you are not afraid of death, follow me. ”
After finishing speaking, Wen Chou took the lead and left quickly, and none of the remaining soldiers were left behind, they all followed, good man, who wants to die here, it is better to fight for a life of nine deaths!
