(Second update.) ）

Lin Ying looked at his personal guard, his voice was weak and soft, he smiled and asked, "Do you regret it?" ”

The tears on the guard's face were not dry, and he was slightly stunned when he heard the words, and he didn't react for a while, "What did the general say?" ”

Lin Ying sighed, with an unbearable look in his eyes, "In this battle, you may not have died, but because you followed me, you are now in a certain death situation, do you regret it?" ”

The guards wiped away the tears on their faces, and said firmly: "Fight for the country, although you die, you have no regrets!" ”

Lin Ying was stunned, a little helpless about this missing guard, "I'm asking, if you want to die with me, don't you regret it?" ”

The guard's voice became heavier, and he said: "It is my honor to be able to follow the general to fight, how can I regret it?" ”

Such an answer made Lin Ying stunned again. His eyes suddenly became a little dazed, as if he had fallen into some kind of memory, and after a long time, a smile bloomed on his face again, "Indeed. It is my glory to be able to follow the commander to fight, and I will die without regrets. ”

The guard looked at Lin Ying, his eyes were full of puzzlement, he didn't understand why Lin Ying suddenly talked about Li Congjing.

Lin Ying didn't answer his question anymore, the stars and moon in his eyes were picturesque, but his thoughts had flown back to eight years ago, and flew back to Changhe County on that snowy night. In front of him, there seemed to be the guy who was very young at that time, too young to reach the crown, and said to him: "I believe that your son will have a happy home in the future." ”

Yes, the young man did. Lin Ying, who lost her home in the war, now has a new home. He became a relative and had a son of his own. They live in Luoyang, where there is no war, and everything is happy and stable.

"General, the thieves are here again!" A word from the guard pulled Lin Ying's thoughts back to reality.

"Help me up!" Lin Ying's eyes suddenly cleared, and he raised his horizontal knife again, looking at the enemies who were surging in like a tide.

The death of a confidant is a kind of luck in itself.

A few hours ago—

After Lin Ying led his troops to retreat to the third line of defense, at this time, the gentleman finally figured out the reality of the thief army along the way.

"General, the investigation is clear, damn it, there are no less than 20,000 thieves on this road!" A capital head came to report to Lin Ying, and the person who would call Lin Ying a general now must be the old man of Junzidu, in fact, most of the thousand Junzi Du brought by Lin Ying was his old subordinate, "It's just that they are all foot soldiers, and the horse army basically only has the hundreds of horsemen we met before." ”

"All foot soldiers? That's great! A commander said happily, "If you are a foot soldier, there is no possibility of forcibly rushing through the formation, as long as our troops are still holding on, the thief army will have to fight with us in the mountain road!" ”

"But it's also strange!" Lin Ying muttered, "The thief army's horse army will not be so few, where have these horse troops gone?" The thief army put all the foot soldiers on the south road, what is the meaning of such a deployment? ”

"Since Ma Jun is not on the south road, he is naturally on the two roads on the north side!" The commander said as a matter of course, and when he said this, he paused, "As for why the thief army deployed its troops like this", he couldn't think of an answer.

Lin Ying pondered for a moment, and when he saw that everyone's eyes were looking at him, his face suddenly turned solemn, and he asked everyone: "Everyone, do you dare to fight to the death with me?" ”

"What are these words, general, how can a gentleman ever be afraid of death?" The crowd immediately shouted.

"Good!" Lin Ying nodded, waved his hand to bring the map, unfolded it in front of everyone, pointed to the map and said: "The thief army sent more than 30,000 troops, there is no doubt about it, since there are more than 20,000 foot soldiers on the south road, the other 8,000 horse troops must have gone to the north and two roads." It is not impossible to intercept the elite cavalry of the 8,000 thief army, but after holding on for twelve hours, it will definitely be completely damaged. Ladies and gentlemen, do you understand? ”

Opponents: 2,000 and 8,000; Matchup time: Hold on for twelve hours; Matchup location: mountain road; Result of the matchup: Damage. Such an accurate prediction of the battle situation cannot be made without a thorough understanding of the combat strength of the enemy and our own, and a thorough analysis of many factors such as the right time, place, and people. To be able to make such a prediction, the entire gentleman is up and down, except for Lin Ying, I am afraid that there will be no second person.

But in fact, such a deduction is not impossible, because this battle actually does not have many additional influencing elements, and it can be called a hard encounter with combat power and a hard consumption of soldiers.

Regarding Lin Ying's deduction, everyone did not doubt it, and they all nodded solemnly.

"After the First World War, the gentlemen are all damaged, everyone, can you accept it?" Lin Ying looked at everyone with blazing eyes.

Everyone was silent and silent. For them, the battle veterans are not a terrible thing to die on the battlefield, but it is obviously not simply a combat proposition.

Everyone didn't answer, but Lin Ying said loudly: "I can't accept it!" Not only can I not accept it, I think that the gentlemen of the past all commanded Guo Wei, and the current gentlemen all commanded Lin Xiong, and when they faced this problem, they couldn't accept it! ”

He looked at everyone with sharp eyes, and said heavily: "Gentlemen, you can't be completely damaged!" The banner of the gentleman cannot fall! The army of gentlemen cannot disappear from the Tang Dynasty! ”

"General, what should I do, you say it, I'll do it!" There is a hurry, and I can't help but say loudly.

"There's only one way!" Lin Ying's eyes were like electricity, and he said four words: "Tian Ji horse racing!" ”

Some of the people have already understood, and some have not yet reacted.

Then, Lin Ying looked at the mountain road and said slowly: "If we fight here, we must guard the south road, if we have the determination to fight to the last person, we must hold on to the time limit of twelve hours from now on, five hundred people are enough!" ”

Five hundred men were sufficient, and in addition to the wounded in the previous battle, three hundred cavalry could be transferred to support the two northern roads.

Before leaving, Lin Ying whispered to the cavalry general who led three hundred horsemen to the north for a while, and then said, "Do you remember these words clearly?" ”

"Don't worry, the general will not miss a word!" The cavalry general said with red eyes, "Then, why didn't the general tell the commander of the capital the truth?" ”

Lin Ying smiled, "If you tell the truth, the commander will not agree." ”

Lin Xiong lost his voice and said: "It's not good! ”

"What does the general mean?" Left and right showed puzzled expressions.

"Lin Ying's words are not right, he is lying!" Lin Xiong's face sank like water, as if he had encountered something extremely hateful.

"The general said Lin Ying was lying? How is this possible! "The rider who was sent by Lin Ying was uneven.

"There will always be flaws in lies, and there are flaws in his words!" Lin Xiong paced back and forth, his mood was extremely uneasy, "His words seem reasonable, but in fact, he ignores the most important point!" The two mountain roads in the middle and north are much longer than the southernmost mountain roads, almost twice the distance. We may suffer heavy losses in battle, but relying on the mountain road, we will not be able to hold the twelve hours. ”

The cavalry sent by Lin Ying was stunned.

"I know what my brother means." Lin Xiong suddenly lowered his head.

"What do you mean?"

Lin Xiong didn't say anything more, he suddenly turned around, gritted his teeth and said, "Since the reinforcements have come, why don't I make a big noise and take the initiative to attack?" In this way, the thief army can also retreat and achieve the established results as soon as possible! ”

He turned over his horse, mobilized his generals, drew his sword in front, and rushed to the Xichuan army without hesitation.

The mountain breeze blows in his face, and Lin Xiong's heart is like fire.

He knew what Lin Ying meant?

Of course he knew, and no one knew it better than he did.

"My brother does that, but because he's my brother." Lin Xiong was groaning in his heart, "No matter what he says to others, I know his true intentions. The mountain road I am guarding is indeed more difficult than his, and he is afraid that something will happen to me, so he sends reinforcements over, just to protect me! ”

Lin Xiong couldn't say these words, he could only shout in his heart: "Since my grandmother died in the war, my brother took me to exile and take me to join the army, and he has always been protecting me!" He felt his heart twisted, and he urgently needed to defeat the Xichuan thief army in front of him, "Because he is the elder brother and I am the younger brother, he has always wanted to protect me!" ”

Lin Ying stood up, looked at the Xichuan army that rushed again, and was about to rush to the battlefield with a knife, when a young general jumped out from the side and said to Lin Ying: "The general has been seriously injured, why should he fight again?" Sit back and watch the lowly generals kill the thieves! ”

Lin Ying's face sank, "Nonsense!" As the chief general of the Southern Route Army, how can he be cowardly? ”

The young general was not afraid of Lin Ying's anger, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The general has been seriously injured, and if he goes into battle at this time, if he unfortunately fails to fight, where will the morale of our generals be, and at that time, will it be defended here?" One sentence made Lin Ying silent, and the young general continued: "The general will hand over the guards to the lowly position, and the lowly duty should break the thief army for the general!" ”

Lin Ying looked at the other party and did not refuse again, he had already recognized this young general, in the previous battle, this person had indeed shown extraordinary bravery.

"Your name is Fu Yanlin?" Lin Ying slowly spoke, "The three masters of the Martial Arts Academy? ”

"It is indeed a humble duty!" Fu Yanlin is not modest at all.

In the past few years, there have been many outstanding talents in the Yanwu Academy, but the most prestigious of them is the first phase of the Yanwu Shuangxiong and the fifth phase of the Yanwu Sanjie. The former is talking about An Chongrong and Zhao Hongyin, and the latter is talking about Shi Chonggui, Shi Yanchao and this Fu Yanlin.

"Good!" Lin Ying appreciated, "Please let me be!" ”

Fu Yanlin was overjoyed, and with a wave of his big hand, he beckoned Lin Ying's personal guards, and slaughtered the Xichuan army with great momentum.

At this time, there were less than 200 gentlemen and generals who could still fight.

Lin Ying leaned against the stones, his breath was dying, and he was really brave when he watched Fu Yanlin rush left and right in the enemy formation.

He suddenly smiled helplessly. Thousands of calculations, I didn't calculate that I was seriously injured before the time limit arrived, and I didn't have the strength to rush into battle again, if it wasn't for Fu Yanlin's birth, I am afraid that today's battle would last less than twelve hours.

But Rao is so, the casualties of the gentlemen are too great after all.

When the twelve hours were about to expire, Fu Yanlin retreated.

The reason for retreating was because there were only thirty or forty people left in the Junzi Capital, and they couldn't stand in the mountain road, and Lin Ying's resting position was on the hillside, and they could still take advantage of the terrain to resist for a while.

Fu Yanlin, who had retreated, was covered in blood, and when he saw Lin Ying again, the wounds all over his body hurt so much that he bared his teeth and grinned, but he still held his head high and proudly showed off himself, "How, general, there is no deception in the lowly position!" "It looked like they didn't know they were all going to die here.

"Very good, you did a great job!" Lin Ying coughed a few times, a trace of blood flowed out of his mouth, which was wiped away by him, and said with relief: "Gentlemen are all talented, and the imperial forbidden army is talented, and he will sweep the world one day!" He wanted to laugh, but he didn't laugh twice, and the wound was touched, and there was another violent cough, and this time the blood coughed up could no longer be erased.

Fu Yanlin laughed loudly, "After this battle, I, Fu Yanlin, have also become famous!" He suddenly pointed to the eastern sky, opened his voice and shouted: "Shi Yanchao, you elm stone, do you think that only you can succeed in this battle and make a name for yourself in the army?" Lao Tzu tells you, I, Fu Yanlin, have never lost to you, and you don't want to win me once in your life, don't think about it! After shouting, I remembered the interesting story of fighting with Shi Yanchao and Shi Chonggui in the Yanwu Academy, and laughed again, laughing very happily and proudly.

"Beautiful!" Lin Ying looked at Fu Yanlin, her eyes showed strong appreciation, and she couldn't help but admire. He remembered that when Changhe County was outside, in that heavy snowfall, Li Congjing saw himself that day, did he have such a feeling, even if it was only a little? Back then, Li Congjing discovered him and Lin Xiong, and today he discovered Fu Yanlin, the prosperity of the empire, the flow of personnel, is it such a process of inheriting and unearthing thousands of horses?

Thinking of this, the look in Lin Ying's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a sadness that was so thick that it could not be dissolved, he thought of the next fate, and couldn't help but sigh bitterly, "It's a pity, I couldn't keep such a good seedling."

The Xichuan army had already attacked the hillside, Lin Ying struggled to stand up, stabilized his body with a knife, and said to Fu Yanlin: "Fu Yanlin, come, together with the general, finish the last journey!" ”

Fu Yanlin turned around and stood beside Lin Ying, supported him, raised the horizontal knife, and looked at the Xichuan army surging like a herd of beasts, her pride was still undiminished, "Come on!" Gentlemen are all Lin Ying, and gentlemen are Fu Yanlin, waiting for the battle here! ”

In the beast tide of the Xichuan Army, they are an isolated island, but they stand like Mount Tai, overlooking the heroes

"General Lin!"

When the tide of the Xichuan army was about to drown Lin Ying, Fu Yanlin and others, there was a thunderstorm on the flat ground, and a group of elite horsemen suddenly poured out from the east side of the mountain road, killing the Xichuan army.

Gentlemen are all.

The first rider is none other than Lin Xiong.

He was blinded and led his troops to rush into the Xichuan thief army.

Lin Ying looked at the gentlemen and generals who rushed in shock, and was stunned.

When Lin Xiong rushed to him after a desperate fight and came to pick him up, he was not happy, but whipped Lin Xiong in the face, and scolded with a slashing face: "Bastard, didn't you hear what I brought to you?" Why do you still want to come?! ”

Lin Xionghu burst into tears, gritted his teeth, looked at Lin Ying, and said in a trembling voice: "I listened carefully to what you brought me, I understood, I didn't believe a word of what you said!" ”

In the midst of the war, Lin Ying desperately tried to hold back something, but she still couldn't help but burst into tears

The first rays of sunlight in the morning shine on the earth and mountains, and the beauty is intoxicating.

Hundreds of horsemen and gentlemen are all on the ground level and marching towards Xuanwu County.

"Why don't you believe me?" Lin Ying lay on the stretcher and asked Lin Xiong next to him.

"Because I know that my brother's actual intention in sending troops to help is just that he is afraid that something will happen to me and wants to protect me." Lin Xiong said in a low voice.

Lin Ying stopped talking, he looked at the clear sky, his eyes were complicated.

"All the commanders make this self-inflicted!" A voice came in forcefully, and Fu Yanrao, who was wrapped like a dumpling, was still riding on horseback, and he said leisurely, "General Lin didn't do this for you. ”

Lin Xiong couldn't cry or laugh, "What about what you think?" ”

Fu Yanlin's horsewhip pointed forward, "What General Lin did was for Xuanwu City!" ”

"Xuanwu City?" Lin Xiong was stunned.

"It's a tougher battle, but it's in Xuanwu City." Fu Yanlin said, "General Lin just wants to save more military strength and do his part for the next battle in Xuanwu City!" ”

Lin Xiong was stunned.

"Because the success or failure of Xuanwu City is related to the success or failure of the battle of the marshal." Fu Yanlin was as smart as a monster, "Don't you know that even if General Li dies in battle, he doesn't want to be defeated?" ”
