Chapter 698: Winter is scolding, and the waves are surging
The winter day tilted, shining through the wall of Xiangyang, the soldiers ran nervously, the city gates were closed, and in the solemn atmosphere, Liu Bei took thousands of soldiers and horses to the outskirts of the western part of the city.
Nearby, the corporal pulling the cart was walking through the messy battlefield and carrying the dead, and the two scribes with disheveled hair sat in the middle, the whole person was in a trance, and whispered: "Where are the ...... warriors of a hundred battles...... It's ...... A group of murderous thugs ......"
The cold wind blew here, Liu Bei got off the horse with a calm face, the rich bloody atmosphere made him feel uncomfortable, seeing this scene, he was even more frightened, over there, Mi Zhu and Sun Qian, who were in a trance, saw the lord coming over this side and ran up, and their disheveled appearance was quite miserable.
"Lord...... Wei Yanna rebelled and went to Wancheng with his soldiers......"
"...... lord."
Liu Bei didn't respond to the words of the two, and walked through them, the sticky blood stained the snow red and flowed to the side of his steps before stopping, I don't know whose hand was broken and still holding the knife, and if you look closely, there is still half a yak tail on it. Liu Bei has not seen such a scene, since the beginning of the Yellow Turban, he has also experienced countless battles, and the recent time is also to capture Xiangyang, but most of them are to win, and I haven't seen a scene like this for many years.
However, this time it was Bai Yu's elite soldiers who died, and there were distressed convulsions on his moody face after all. With a bang, he pulled out his saber and stuck it on the ground with both hands, and his voice was stiff and low: "....... Elite equipment!! ”
The sun shines down, and you can't feel a trace of temperature, and in this suburban field, the empty barracks of the wooden fence collapsed, reflecting the declining army, showing a sense of desolation.
Not far away, the swaying figure closed the body of a white soldier, Chen Zhi covered his abdomen with a knife wound, the blood had coagulated and scaled, and the pain of the tear still irritated the scalp, it was a soldier who broke through the front line of the Western Expedition took advantage of the chaos to draw a cold knife, fortunately, the soldiers blocked it, and the wound was not deep.
It's really a bunch of sober-minded lunatics...... This is the affirmation he gave to the group of Western Expeditionary Army.
Since he defected to the lord Liu Bei in Yuzhou, the war has only experienced Xiahou Yuan's long-distance sneak attack on Runan, although the war was also their failure, but in the end it is not as crazy as this group of people, and the ordinary match, the battle of the transfer of troops is different, keep the formation intact, with the attitude of charging directly crushed over, with a terrifying impact to shake this side of the shield array at the same time, the soldiers in the rear held the ring head knife like a mad dog to cut people when they saw people, and even several people together with each other to slash, the original front was torn apart, and then, More people formed a torrent swept in.
At that moment, in the air, Chen Zhi seemed to feel the ferocious murderous aura emanating from each of the other party's bodies, whether it was fighting separately or cooperating with the team, firmly forming a big wave that would not disperse, constantly rolling the white soldiers under his command into it, and the screams and the sound of gold and iron clashing never stopped.
After he was wiped by the soldiers of the Western Expedition who took advantage of the chaos to break in, he fell off his horse, and the process of the rout was no longer visible, but then he knew from the mouth of the guards that after tearing this place, Wei Yan led the 12,000 people to turn north and leave, and Liu Feng and Feng Xi, who had come from the reinforcements, led 20,000 troops to intercept it, as for the result, it has not yet been transmitted. Not far away, I saw the figure of the lord Liu Bei standing there, and let out a slight sigh.
"My lord, to the point of incompetence, failed to realize the ...... of detecting Wei Yan's evil thief"
Liu Bei turned around and held the arched hand, looked at the blood-stained face, and shook his head with wet eyes: "It's a mistake to take in such an unrighteous person, the tired soldiers are killed and injured, and the tired uncle is injured. ”
"The lord ......" Chen Zhi choked up with words, buried his head and bowed down on one knee abruptly: "The lord is sympathetic, and I am very moved in my heart, but Bai Yu Bing is the elite of the lord's side, and now there are more than 800 dead and wounded, how can the last general be at ease, and please ask the lord to punish him, so that he can be worthy of the dead and wounded sergeants, which is convincing!" ”
"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and they are prepared to go through ups and downs, and they don't know how many defeats they have, and when they get up quickly, they will not be punished again." Liu Bei comforted him a few words, and helped Chen Zhi up, "Liu Feng and Feng Xi's two generals have already led troops to chase after them, and when Yun Chang returns, it will not be too late to arrest them together." ”
Between the words, the horse in front of him galloped quickly, and when he was about to get closer, he quickly jumped off the horse: "Lord Qiqi..... two generals, Liu Feng and Feng Xi...... It's back. ”
"How? Can you get that Wei Yan! He asked at a sudden speed.
The scout hesitated for a moment and lowered his head slightly: "The defeat of the counter-killing...... 20,000 soldiers and horses were ambushed halfway, and General Feng was almost cut by Wei Yan, and now he is on his way back. ”
The corners of his mouth originally showed a smile, but when he heard this, his whole face stiffened there, and his hand moved aimlessly: "The two of you are fine...... It's good to have nothing to do...... Good. ”
My heart was stuffy, and I didn't know what to say next. Thinking back to welcoming this army that day, and remembering the disdainful look on the face of the general named Wei Yan, he was quite unwilling in his heart, and he didn't even understand why people went against him, why they couldn't feel his kindness......
"Lord...... Then Wei Yan will send a message to you, saying thank you for the lord's care for this half month, and you won't attack the city......"
"This ...... Arrogant!" Chen Zhi's face turned pale, and he still clenched the handle of the knife and shouted angrily in a low voice.
Liu Bei waved his hand at him, sent the scout away, and only said: "Arrogant people will eventually say a few cruel words." He turned around in silence, preparing to return to the city, and the blood dripped on the dirt in his lowered gaze, and he took a deep breath: "There is good news over there over there......
In the south, a group of soldiers and horses have left Zhangshan, on the way back, when they arrived at the city gate, they heard what happened in the Xicheng military camp, Zhang Fei in the team was behind the second brother, his eyes widened, "I asked Wei Yanna to follow me to save Sun Ce, and I actually beat the eldest brother Bai Yubing...... Rotten belly...... Don't say it, don't say it. ”
After rushing over there, they met Liu Bei and his entourage who were returning to the city on the way, and the two of them dismounted and knelt down on one knee, their heads hanging down. Seeing the appearance of the two of them pleading, Liu Bei's mind was full of buzzing noise and chaos, and he didn't know how to return to the city in the end.
"It's only been one night, and the bad news is coming one after another......"
First, the military advisor was beaten when he returned home at night, his cheeks were swollen and he couldn't speak, and then the Western Expeditionary Army, which was full of hope to be subdued, ran away in the early morning, and then Sun Ce, who had been planning for a long time and the details were all discussed, but the result was still ...... He stood at the door of the mansion, looking at the deserted scene of his home, and almost cried.
"This year...... Don't let people pass!"
……
On the road to the south of Xinye, because of the war that happened not long ago, it was already a mess, occasionally you can see one or two pedestrians, all of them left in a panic, and between the empty fields and roads, a team of more than 700 people walked through Xinye and went to Bowang.
After a while, a fast rider came back from the front, and Sun Ce nodded to Zhou Yu next to him after listening to it, and shouted: "Drive!" With a whip, he rushed out. Zhou Yu, who was half bloodstained, rode on horseback, looking back at this land of Jingchu, and Huang Zhong and others around him were also looking back, full of complexity.
"When I come back, the world will be different." He said.
Soon after, in front of Bowangpo, an army of 10,000 people gathered there, and when they saw the Jiangdong cavalry gathered, they let out the first laugh, and then everyone around laughed, shaking the sky. Together they marched westward, marched through the long desert, stood on the square pyramid, attacked the largest seaport in the Mediterranean at night, took away countless classics, and also crossed the sea to push the flames of war to the capital of Great Qin.
On this day, the brothers got together again and stood side by side again.
"To the Northlands!" Wei Yan shouted loudly.
The flood is rising.
