Chapter 89: The inside should be combined with the outside

Gongsun Ao's head buzzed, like a bolt of lightning slashing through the back of his head, 8,000 people wandered in the desert, and only 40 people blended into the surrounded Han army. But Tayan has 30,000 elite soldiers.

Are the soldiers saved? Fart, there are a few more to die.

In fact, it is said that forty people secretly infiltrated the encirclement, and less than ten people arrived at the Han army camp at this moment, because they were acting synchronously from four directions, and there was no contact with each other, only a small group of people had arrived, and the rest had not yet arrived, and life and death were uncertain.

The lost hope that had just emerged was ruthlessly stifled.

The smile on Gongsun Ao's face that he didn't have time to retract turned into a sad face, since he was not ready to rescue them, why send a few more people to send them to death, it was only a matter of time before the Huns encircled and annihilated them, and there was no action at present, and it was only a matter of time before they were waiting for any opportunity.

Gongsun Ao is still a little unwilling, did the emperor really give up on them? Even so, the hussar general would not treat the soldiers like this.

But...... No one said that it was the hussar general who led the army this time! Thinking of this, Gongsun Ao's heart was empty, could it be that the commander of the reinforcements from Chang'an this time was not Huo Quai?

He hurriedly said, "Who is the commander of this reinforcement?" ”

Zhong Li was stunned for a moment, and then said, "The emperor ordered the hussar general to lead 50,000 elite soldiers, while relieving the siege of General Gongsun, and attacking the Evil King County on the other.

Gongsun Ao frowned, his pupils tightened, and he gasped and continued, "Where is the hussar general now?" ”

"The hussar general personally commanded more than 40,000 people to attack the old nest of the Evil King County, and it is estimated that there will be good news in the near future." Speaking of this, Zhongli raised his chin a little proudly, he didn't notice Gongsun Ao, who was already dead gray.

Gongsun Ao's feet were weak, and he took two steps back, trying to grab something to stabilize his steps, but his hands were empty, and he didn't catch anything, and he almost fell, thanks to Zhongli's quick eyes.

"General Gongsun, what's wrong with you?"

What's wrong?

If Gongsun Ao's heart was just cut by a knife just now, now all thoughts are gone, and the original little hope has been completely crushed, and even Huo Qubing has given up on them, what hope do they have, what ability does he have to take these only remaining Han soldiers home.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Ao's emotions like a roller coaster could no longer be controlled, and two hot tears slipped down his cheeks.

Gongsun Ao let out a long breath, he Gongsun Ao He was afraid of death, but he was ashamed of these soldiers who followed him who were born and died, in the most dangerous time, they did not give up, and swore to follow them, and the only promise he gave them was to take them home.

However, his last promise has become an empty word, and he will no longer have the face to face his soldiers and live in the world.

Gongsun Ao pushed Zhongli and drew his sword sideways, ready to apologize for his crimes. The moment the blade touched his neck, the movement stopped in air.

Gongsun Ao shook his head vigorously, no, he can't die yet, he wants to take the soldiers home, even if he fights the last bit of strength, he will die on the battlefield.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Ao didn't look at Zhongli again, but clenched his sword and said, "Soldiers." ”

Before, everyone heard that the reinforcements had arrived, and they had already gathered over, and when they heard Gongsun Ao's words, they all looked at him.

"My Gongsun Ao is a sinner, the command failed, so that everyone and I fell into such an unbearable situation, I am ashamed of the people waiting for us to return victorious, ashamed of the emperor's trust in me, ashamed of the soldiers' sworn to the death. I'm sorry everyone. Today we have no hope, only the same hatred of the enemy, fight a bloody road, the sin general Gongsun Ao did not have any face to make a promise again, just ask everyone to join me, fight out of the encirclement, we go home together. ”

Gongsun Ao said, knelt down on one knee and clenched his hands into fists.

The soldiers were silent, and they could only hear the military flag behind them being blown by the scorching warm wind of the desert, making a whirring sound.

Outside the camp is the smoke of war, inside the camp is the Han army soldiers who are ready to fight at any time, sweat and blood are intertwined.

With the muffled sound of Gongsun Ao's knees falling to the ground, the soldiers present invariably made the same action, and a loud voice sounded in the crowd, "We must, swear to follow the general!" ”

Swear to follow the general......

Swear to follow the general......

There was another sound of horses' hooves, and Gongsun Ao looked up to see that several Han cavalry rode over.

Like the team led by Zhongli just now, less than ten people, it is estimated that they successfully evaded the encirclement of the Huns, secretly infiltrated the barracks, and there was no trace of a fight.

If he saw Zhongli and them just now, Gongsun Ao was excited, and his mood became a little complicated at this moment.

Gongsun Ao's eyebrows tightened, and he walked past the soldiers who had already made way for him, and walked in front of the squad of reinforcements.

Before he could speak, the soldiers led by this small team spoke first, "Counselor Huo is really clever, so we can successfully avoid the Hun ambush and blend into the camp." ”

Gongsun Ao's mind is a little blind, Counselor Huo? Didn't it just say that the hussar general led more than 40,000 elite soldiers to attack the lair of the Evil King County, so who is this Counselor Huo?

A bold guess crossed his mind.

It's a name he disdains to mention, but lately he's always remembered it.

Huo Guang!

Gongsun Ao then remembered, he didn't seem to ask clearly, there must be a reason for this, why the army bypassed them from the rear and attacked the Hun Evil King County, but he sent 8,000 elite soldiers to confront Tayan head-on, these 8,000 elite soldiers were at such a big risk, but these people were all wandering in the desert, and only sent 40 people to mix into the besieged Han army camp in four ways.

It seems that none of this is so simple.

Don't......

Gongsun Ao knew that Huo Guang was smart and resourceful to be different from ordinary people, and he always came up with some ideas that they couldn't think of, could this be a ploy?

As soon as this thought came to mind, Gongsun Ao couldn't wait to turn to Zhongli, "Is Huo Guang also here?" ”

Zhongli actually wanted to say that they came in with a mission, and there were still many things to explain, but Gongsun Ao didn't know which nerve was wrong, so he began to put on a posture of heroic righteousness, which made him a monk who was also the second Zhang's head at a loss.

At this moment, Zhongli was finally given a chance to speak, and he hurriedly replied, "Yes, the emperor's personal staff officer. This time, it was Counselor Huo who led 8,000 elite soldiers to fight Tayan head-on to relieve the siege of General Gongsun. ”

Gongsun Ao is getting more and more incomprehensible, there are only eight thousand, although they are elite soldiers, but in the face of Tayan's 30,000 iron cavalry, it seems that it is too few.

Zhongli saw Gongsun Ao's concerns, pursed his lips and said with a smile, "Counselor Huo sent us four people to mingle in just to meet with General Gongsun, and they are already ready on the periphery. Just wait for us to start a fire and launch a breakthrough together. ”
