Ling Yan was in a panic to the extreme, he had no idea at all, and looked at You Heng: "Brother You...... So what do we do now? ”

You Heng frowned tightly and looked at the soldiers in front of him: "We have just lost the battle now, and we can't kill it back at all, so we have to ...... Take a break before you plan. ”

Ling Yan said helplessly: "But...... Where are we going to rest? Front...... It's all the territory of the Yellow Turbans, where are we going......"

You Heng also seemed to have no choice: "Evacuate a distance first, if it really can't work, then kill back to Dingtao City, or take a detour to return." ”

Ling Yan said bitterly: "General Nawen, they ...... And Grasshopper City, we don't care? ”

You Heng said helplessly: "We can't help them for the time being...... Otherwise, send a fast horse and tell General Wen to return immediately and return to Jiyin City, maybe it will be too late......"

You Heng finally said "It's still too late", and he said it extremely reluctantly, and Ling Yan also saw that it should be too late to send someone to tell Wen Ping now, but now, in addition to this method, he couldn't think of what to do, so he had to nod and agree: "Okay...... Let's do it......"

So, Ling Yan immediately sent a soldier and ordered him to return immediately, and immediately told him about the changes in Dingtao City after seeing Wen Ping.

After that, Ling Yan hurriedly chased forward, and after seeing Lu Gong, he hurriedly said to Lu Gong: "General Lu, how are your injuries?" ”

Lu Gong looked at Ling Yan with a painful expression, hugged his fists and said, "General Yan...... I'm sorry, it's just that the last general is not good at martial arts......" After speaking, Lu Gong seemed to cry.

Ling Yan knew that he couldn't blame Gong Lu at all, he didn't have any responsibility for it, it was completely his own responsibility, and when he saw that Gong Lu's armor was covered with blood stains and his clothes were unbearable, he said again: "General Lu, this is not your responsibility at all...... Don't you really need to worry about your injuries? ”

Lu Gong nodded reluctantly: "The general doesn't have to worry, the last general's body is only an extra-skin injury, and there is no major problem." After speaking, he became anxious again: "General Yan, should we immediately return to the army and kill back?" If you go back again, you may be able to catch Colonel Zuo off guard......"

Ling Yan shook his head slowly, his expression extremely helpless: "Impossible...... We, the soldiers, simply can't fight anymore...... And now that the morale is low, going back is tantamount to sending them to death......" As he spoke, Ling Yan pointed to the dejected soldiers around him.

Lu Gong hurriedly said: "General Wen, what should I do?" ”

"I've already sent someone to tell General Wen, whether it's too late depends on luck......," Ling Yan smiled helplessly, "Let's find a place...... Let's wait until morale recovers......"

Lu Gong said even more anxiously: "General Yan, the front is full of places for the Yellow Turban Army, and all our grain and grass are escorted by General Wen!" If General Wen is robbed, then ...... How can we hold out for long? ”

Ling Yan was helpless: "There is no way...... General Lu, even if we go back now, we won't be able to help at all...... On the contrary, the losses are even greater...... Let's go forward first, even if you want to kill back, you have to discuss it first, and then decide. ”

Lu Gong probably didn't expect Ling Yan's attitude to change so quickly, and looked at Ling Yan in a daze, but he didn't say anything more, just sighed.

Ling Yan was in an irritable mood, and glanced back at Dingtao City, which had shrunk a little in the distance, and then ordered the army to move forward.

On the way, Ling Yan was worried that there was an enemy ambush nearby, or an enemy city, so he took out the map and looked at it, and asked Lian Rui again, only to know that the road was very long, and there would be no enemy ambush nearby, so he continued to move forward with a little confidence.

After walking for most of the day, after the sky darkened, the soldiers and horses were already sleepy and tired, so Ling Yan ordered to set up camp nearby and put the soldiers and horses in order.

Ling Yan's army had very little food and grass, only enough for one or two meals, but Ling Yan saw that the soldiers had almost no strength, so he ordered a fire to make a meal, so that the soldiers could have a full meal.

During the cooking, Ling Yan asked You Heng to count the remaining people, asked Lu Gong to inspect the camp, and asked Lian Rui to discuss his next move with him in his tent.

Originally, this Lian Rui was just a soldier under Colonel Zuo, and it stands to reason that he should not be allowed to participate in the military consultation, but Ling Yan can find only a few people to discuss now, and Lian Rui has been a soldier under Colonel Zuo for a long time, so he must know a lot about Colonel Zuo and the situation of the Yellow Turban Army.

After Ling Yan spread out the map, he first asked Lian Rui: "Lian Rui, where do you think we are going now?" ”

Lian Rui looked at the map and pointed to a large area: "General Yan...... There are two cities in front of this, both occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, with the current strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to break the city, if you want to rest, I think you still have to avoid this place. ”

Ling Yan nodded, and looked at the vicinity of this place: "Then we ...... Where to go? ...... in this direction Okay? Ling Yan's finger pointed to the right.

"I'm afraid it won't work here," Lian Rui said, "This place is closer to the Yellow Turban Army, and the terrain is complicated, so it's not easy to march. ”

Ling Yan reluctantly pointed to the left again: "What about here?" ”

Lian Rui said: "Here...... I'm not familiar with it, and no further back, it's not the territory of the Yellow Turbans. ”

Ling Yan sighed: "Okay...... Then we'll go in this direction......" With that, he put away the map in despair.

Lian Rui looked at Ling Yan for a long time before he asked curiously, "General Yan...... You really don't want to go back to Dingtao City? ”

Ling Yan smiled bitterly: "I really want to...... But how to kill back...... Colonel Zuo must be on guard, and leading this soldier to kill back is not enough for Colonel Zuo to kill once......"

Lian Rui was a little puzzled: "General Yan, when I followed General Zuo before, I thought that the general was brave and invincible, and his martial arts were on par with General Zuo, and the general was more than resourceful and could capture General Zuo. ”

Ling Yan shook his head: "In terms of martial arts, Colonel Zuo is much higher than me...... In terms of resourcefulness, ten of me are not as good as one left colonel......"

Seeing that Ling Yan didn't have any confidence, Lian Rui seemed to cheer up again: "General Yan, I have followed General Zuo for a long time, since I followed him, he has never been captured by the enemy, only this time. ”

Ling Yan laughed miserably: "It's because I captured him that he hates me to death...... This capture is also because someone is helping me, but ......"

Lian Rui looked at Ling Yan puzzled.

"Yes...... The man is in Grasshopper City right now, and I don't even know if he's alive or dead...... If he's here, maybe I'll still have some confidence......"

Speaking of this, Ling Yan couldn't help but sigh again, he didn't know what happened to Zuo Ci and them now, he was extremely worried in his heart, but he couldn't help them, this kind of mood made Ling Yan die of pain.

At this time, Ling Yan really understood what it meant to be "powerless".

"General, ......with all due respect," Lian Rui said, "The general trusts General Zuo too much, if it weren't for this, he wouldn't ......."

Ling Yan waved his hand in annoyance: "I know...... It's all my fault, it's me who trusts him too much......" As he spoke, he stood up and looked out of the tent with blank eyes, "When he killed Sun Qiu, I completely believed him, I thought ...... If he surrendered, how could he be killed...... What about your own generals......"

Lian Rui nodded: "Yes...... When General Zuo killed Sun Qiu, we soldiers were also very surprised, and we also believed that General Zuo had attached himself to the general...... But now that I think about it, General Zuo never cared about other people's lives, except for us guards, even if it was a colleague, he didn't care about killing them. ”

Ling Yan took a deep breath: "I'm ...... now Totally understood. ”

After a while, You Heng came in and told Ling Yan that there were only less than two thousand soldiers.

Ling Yan was even more upset, he didn't even eat dinner—in addition to being extremely annoyed by his mistake, he was anxiously waiting for a reply from the soldier he had been sent out.

However, until it was time to go to bed at night, Ling Yan did not wait for the reply of the detective.

Lu Gong took the initiative to ask for a night patrol, but Ling Yan asked Lu Gong and the others to go back to sleep, he came to patrol the night by himself, Lu Gong was unwilling, Ling Yan insisted on this, and said that this was an order, so Lu Gong went back.

Ling Yan knew that the soldiers who escaped like this were all too tired to walk, and he couldn't bear to let them stay up all night, and Ling Yan still had a deep sense of guilt for these people and those who died in battle, so he wanted to make up for the general let them all sleep and come to patrol the night by himself.

These soldiers may have been really tired, and soon all the soldiers in the camp fell asleep.

Although Ling Yan was also very tired, he couldn't sleep at all, his mind was full of thoughts about the previous things, and at this time, the discomfort on his body was getting stronger and stronger.

Ling Yan knew that this feeling of his mind was caused by the consumption of a large amount of internal qi, and he had used the cultivation technique twice in a row before, but the internal qi replenishment could not keep up at all, so he was busy taking advantage of this time to meditate on the healing internal qi, wanting to replenish a little internal qi quickly.

However, Ling Yan's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't calm down at all, and he finally reluctantly let himself not think about other things for a while, but soon those scenes came into his mind again.

Ling Yan stood up in annoyance, no longer recuperating his internal qi, but walked out of the tent.

The night breeze was originally a very comfortable thing, but Ling Yan felt cold, he raised his head and looked up at the starry sky, in the quiet night sky, only the stars were twinkling and blinking at him.

Ling Yan smiled bitterly, remembering the thrilling scene before, but now it was so quiet, it really made him feel a lot of emotion.

Ling Yan looked in the direction of Dingtao City in the distance, thinking about the safety of Wen Ping and the others, his heart was even more annoyed, and he was just about to turn around and walk back to the tent, but Yu Guang saw someone walking beside him.

Ling Yan hurriedly took a look, and when the man approached, Ling Yan saw that it was Lian Rui, so he asked a little surprised, "Lian Rui, why haven't you slept yet?" ”

Lian Rui hugged his fists and said: "General Yan, I am patrolling the night, worried that there may be enemy troops coming to rob the village at night." ”

Ling Yan was very moved: "Lian Rui, go back to sleep, I'll just come to patrol the night." ”

Lian Rui refused: "The general has just experienced a battle, and he has been marching for most of the day, he must be tired, so the general should go and rest first...... I, unlike the generals, only marched, and still on horseback, and was not tired at all. ”

Ling Yan looked at Lian Rui gratefully, smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and then turned around and went back to the tent.

With Lian Rui to keep an eye on him, Ling Yan was also relieved, originally he wanted to try to recover some of his internal qi again, but he couldn't calm down, so he gave up and lay down directly on the couch.

Although he was exhausted, Ling Yan couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and his mind was full of one person-Colonel Zuo.

Ling Yan remembered the bits and pieces of the past, and remembered all the things he had done with Colonel Zuo before, which were like movie screens, going through them completely in his mind.

Even if Ling Yan thought about it now, he didn't think that Colonel Zuo would do this to make himself believe him, he couldn't believe it at all, Colonel Zuo had been planning to such an extent!

Ling Yan remembered that when he had just captured Colonel Zuo, Colonel Zuo agreed to heal Yu Gengen after hesitation, which moved Ling Yan at that time, even if he thought about it now, Ling Yan was still very grateful to Colonel Zuo at this point, and he even wondered if Colonel Zuo did not rebel against his thoughts at that time, but only after the consumption of internal qi, he felt depressed......

However, when he thought that Colonel Zuo had actually let himself postpone his march and let his internal qi recover first, Ling Yan felt that something was not right.

However, no matter how much I thought about it now, it would be useless, and I could only blame it for why Ling Yan didn't think of these things at that time!

Ling Yan thought of capturing a few cities in a row before, and he wanted to capture the city all the time, so he couldn't help but laugh bitterly at himself, he only now really realized that those "cities" that were taken by Zuo Colonel were not his own at all, even if they were empty cities like Jiyin City, they were not his own, and not to mention his carelessness, there was no prevention, even if he woke up at that time and defended Jiyin City, it would be difficult to protect the city, because those cities had long been under the control of Zuo Xiao, and it seemed that no one was defending, but in fact, it was invisible, Completely controlled by the left colonel.

At this time, Ling Yan was sweating profusely, this kind of panic was sudden, and he knew at this time that he had been in danger, and he was getting deeper and deeper!

"General Zuo, you are really powerful, you actually deceived me so deeply...... I still see you as a brother...... I really read it wrong......" Ling Yan said to himself mockingly.

At this time, Ling Yan thought of the "people" at the head of Dingtao City, at that time, Ling Yan only paid attention to the movement outside the city, but he didn't think of the strangeness of the city at all, and now he figured it out: No matter how busy Colonel Zuo is, how can he let a few people guard the city! Besides, those people are very different in their words and deeds, and they don't look like people at all!

Thinking of this, Ling Yan hammered the corner of the couch heavily, and secretly scolded himself in his heart: Why didn't you be careful! I didn't even see the strange situation of those "people"!

At this time, Ling Yan was full of remorse, he really regretted that he didn't have the slightest doubt about the situation along the way, he regretted that he trusted Colonel Zuo too much! I trust more than these brothers who live and die together!

In addition, Ling Yan also secretly made up his mind: he must accept a lesson in the future, and this situation must not happen again! And...... We must take revenge this time!

Ling Yan said a loud "um" categorically, which was regarded as a guarantee to himself. However, after this assurance, Ling Yan suddenly fell into a panic again, because he thought of Wen Ping, Yang Feng, Zhang Min, Kuai Liang, and Jiyin City and Grasshopper City, and the courage to rise up in his heart suddenly disappeared most of them, and his heart became very uneasy again.

Thinking like this, Ling Yan couldn't sleep until more than two hours later, when he fell asleep in deep unease.

However, this sleep, Ling Yan slept very poorly.

"General Yan!" A voice with despair reached Ling Yan's ears.

Before Ling Yan could take a look at the environment he was in, he was attracted by this shout, but he couldn't find the direction in which the sound came from, as if it was coming from all directions at the same time.

"General Yan!" Another shout came, this time the voice was very different from the previous one, not only the voice had changed, but the voice was even more miserable.

"Who? Who's calling me? Ling Yan seemed to have asked such a question, and at the same time, his eyes kept scanning around, but he never saw half a figure, and there was a fog all around.

"General Yan! Come on! Leave me alone! Another terrible shout reached Ling Yan's ears.

Ling Yan looked around blankly: "You guys...... Who is it? Why can't I see you? His voice was so small that he couldn't even hear it, so he raised his voice and asked again, but it sounded as small as the one he had just had.

However, there was no voice around to answer his question, and the surroundings suddenly became silent.

Ling Yan felt that he was getting more and more uneasy, and wanted to shout loudly, but he just couldn't.

Suddenly, there was another miserable shout: "General Yan! Save me! Save me! This sound was particularly poignant, and the voice became louder.

Ling Yan felt that he had become frightened, and desperately shouted around, "Who are you!" Who is it? But when the words came out, he didn't feel that it was his own voice, and this shout was ethereal in his ears.

The mournful shouts reached Ling Yan's ears from time to time, and Ling Yan became more and more frightened, and kept asking loudly, but no one answered his words.

Suddenly, in the haze in the distance, a figure covered in blood appeared.

Ling Yan's eyes widened, and he looked fixedly at the figure that was slowly approaching—the figure didn't seem to be coming, but floating over, or the image of the figure was just getting bigger.

Ling Yan stepped back in horror, but he felt that his legs couldn't move at all, but the figure was getting bigger and bigger, and it was getting clearer and clearer.

Soon, Ling Yan saw clearly who the figure really was—it was Zhang Min!

Ling Yan was extremely frightened, the figure was covered in blood, looking dying, but the speed of "movement" did not slow down.
