Chapter 297: The river retains people

At this moment, someone in the chaotic crowd shouted: "Qishan was defeated, Jicheng was broken in two days, Sima Zhuge of the Han Dynasty used his troops like a god, and Liu Xuande, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, won the hearts of the people, sooner or later the Han family will be restored, where can we flee to?" Since they are all defeated, it is better to surrender as soon as possible! ”

Immediately, someone shouted loudly: "Yes, there are nearly 10,000 defenders in Jicheng, and they were all broken in two days. I'm afraid that as soon as we hear the news in the past two days, we will rush to surrender, where can we flee to? If you escape two days earlier, the army will act in unison, and you can still count on killing back to Guanzhong, now it's like this, I'm afraid that after crossing the river, I will be caught by the soldiers and civilians of other counties and sent to invite rewards, so it's better to surrender as soon as possible. Vertex updates the fastest"

Someone else shouted: "Alas, we were originally people in the city, why did we run out of the city?" Our family is in Jicheng, where can we go? If you leave home, won't you starve to death? Oops, I was scared for a while! This won't work, I have to hurry back to the city and guard my family. Vertex updates the fastest"

The people and Tianshui soldiers who fled from the city in a panic suddenly made a big mistake and immediately turned around and returned to the city.

And those Wei troops brought by Cao Xiu from the Central Plains, guarding the river, hesitating, not knowing what to do, some said that what they said was right, this defeat and defeat, where they ran will be defeated, it is better to really surrender early, and some refused, saying that their home is still in the Central Plains, and they have to rush home.

At this time, someone tried to say: "They said that we can escape back from the north gate, and there is really no army to stop us at the north gate, although there is Weishui separating us, but I am afraid that these wooden rafts are also arranged by them, or we will try it, and then go up the river, go west, and find a ferry to cross the river." ”

Someone pointed to the middle and lower reaches of the river and exclaimed, "Look, there's a boat coming over there!" ”

Everyone looked over, and sure enough, there were two wooden rafts going up the current and heading towards them, but the people who were bracing the poles and paddling on them seemed to be Shu soldiers. Vertex updates are the fastest

Oh my God, don't they count, and they're sending people to chase them down?

Oh, no, it shouldn't be, there are only five sergeants on each platoon, and in total, there are only ten people, and such a small number of people are not a threat to everyone.

They didn't have to guess, they shouted from afar: "Hey! What are you doing here, why don't you hurry up and cross the river? ”

Isn't this nonsense, how to cross the river without a boat? You're still here to help us cross the river, are you?

As the wooden platoon got closer and closer, the Shu army stopped in the river, looked at the enemy troops on the shore, and then looked at the opposite bank.

There, nearly 200 Wei troops had already fled ashore.

The Shu soldiers hurriedly shouted to them: "Hey! That's our wooden platoon, why don't you just run away on your own and don't send a few people back to pick up the others? ”

I don't know if people heard it, anyway, it was the same as if they didn't hear it, although some people looked back, but no one turned around and didn't stop for a moment. Vertex updates are the fastest

The Shu army turned around and stretched out his hands to everyone on the shore: "You have also seen it, we left you a raft, and it was your own people who abandoned you." Okay, don't worry, our big Sima promised you that you can evacuate north within two days, now, we will give you another wooden raft, and you yourself will send reliable people to cross the river, hold the wooden raft over there again, and then cross the river in batches. Today and tomorrow should be enough for you all to cross the river. ”

After speaking, a wooden raft slowly approached the shore, and he really went ashore, and found a random soldier: "This brother, we will hand over this wooden raft to you, you must remember to hold up those wooden rafts on the other side and pick them up." ”

The wooden raft in the water turned around and went downstream, and before leaving, he warned everyone on the shore: "Remember the words of our Great Sima, if you want to survive now, you can only go north from here, upstream and downstream, we have sent a large army to blockade." The apex update is the fastest to make a fuss like this, and you can only blame yourself for not evacuating a day or two in advance. ”

The five Shu soldiers who went ashore, in the midst of the enemy army, were also not afraid, held their heads high, lined up in a neat line, interspersed with the enemy, and walked towards the north gate of Jicheng, and at the same time beckoned: "If you are willing to submit to us, you can return to the city at any time, as long as you register at the gate of the city." ”

When they walked out of the crowd, they seemed to remember something, and reluctantly turned around again, reminding again: "By the way, our Da Sima said that it is not allowed to rob the people, and if we find that there is a robbery of the people, we will send cavalry to chase and suppress it!" ”

Another person said: "Oh, there is one more thing, our big Sima asked us to tell you, that is, if you are too flustered and forget to bring rations, after we clean up the city today, you can go to the gate of the north city tomorrow to queue up for a few days, and save you from starvation." ”

Everyone watched a few of them go back in a daze, and they couldn't react for a long time.

The first to react was more than a dozen Wei generals, who didn't take the soldier seriously, and hurriedly rushed over to grab the wooden platoon.

There was only one wooden platoon, and more than a dozen people argued, and they all had to cross the river first, but no one refused to let go first, and they almost drew their swords against each other.

In the end, according to the usual size of the official rank, the official big one went to the wooden raft first, a wooden raft that could carry more than a dozen people, and all the people who squeezed it up were big officials, and even the guards couldn't bring one.

A few people said yes, and took turns paddling the rod across the river.

Waiting for the wooden raft to go offshore, seeing that it was about to get to the opposite bank, a group of people suddenly stared at each other with big eyes, scolding themselves for being stupid, why did they rush up so much, they came here, and they wanted to bring their own people and horses over, and they had to find a wooden raft to cross the river to pick it up?

Just now, I just thought about crossing the river as soon as possible to avoid change, but now that I have crossed the river, don't you want to go back?

Among the group, some of the smarter ones hurriedly went to find a wooden platoon, and quickly rowed back, striving to rely on this wooden platoon and take over their subordinates earlier.

There are a few of them, I didn't have the heart to care about those soldiers who were stranded on the south bank, but when I saw that others turned around, I thought about it carefully, without my subordinates, could I escape safely along the way? You have to find someone to call you along the way! I quickly followed, went to find the wooden raft, and returned to the south bank.

However, with only a dozen wooden platoons, the speed of the crossing was too slow, and after a few round-trips, each of them had about 100 or so close guards, seeing that it was about to get dark, everyone finally lost patience, for fear that something would happen to the enemy, one person took the lead, and the rest followed, leaving a few soldiers to continue to cross people, and they ran away with their men and horses first.

The soldiers who were still stranded on the south bank were already terrified, but as soon as they saw that the generals had left them and left first, they immediately began to riot.

Immediately, someone inside took the lead and shouted: "They don't care if we live or die, let's go to the city gate and surrender, forget it, it's important to save our lives!" ”

And at this time, the Shu army in the city also happened to send people out to greet them: "Everyone has been waiting for a day, and they are already hungry, so why don't you go to the city gate and have a meal together!" (To be continued.) )
