Chapter 30: You Can't Wait to Die

Zhao Zi'an didn't know what to do for a while.

The people of Xingcheng were different from other places. Because these people were personally ordered by His Majesty the Emperor to emigrate.

The borders of the Han Dynasty once only reached the Shanhaiguan, and later the emperor himself ordered that all immigrants who went out of the customs would be rewarded with 100 taels of silver per household, and promised to protect them. One hundred taels is already the cost of an ordinary family for two years, plus the emperor's personal promise, so a group of people ventured to move to Xingcheng, which led to the wave of immigrants and built several Han cities outside the Guan. This is also one of the reasons why General Zhu previously ordered him to defend Xingcheng. Although General Zhu is now forced to issue an order to withdraw his troops due to the situation, is it true that the people are chasing after him, can he really ignore it? Abandoning Xingcheng can be explained, but giving up the people who are chasing after him, how will His Majesty the Emperor deal with it? Will it really be laughed off?

Zhao Zi'an looked up into the distance, the fire in the camp of the Donghu army was shaking, obviously he had noticed it, and it wouldn't be long before the Donghu army caught up.

"The whole army is in formation." Zhao Zi'an gritted his teeth and gave an order.

Wei Changfeng opened his mouth, but did not speak.

Zhao Zi'an was not so idiotic as to know that he was looking for death by lining up here, but the choices he faced made him have no choice. Wei Changfeng also understands this. What advice can he have? It is recommended that the whole army accelerate its retreat and ignore the people? He watched the soldiers hurriedly line up, and everyone had a sad look on their faces.

A team hurriedly passed by Wei Changfeng, who saw a soldier with tears in his eyes, but he was holding a spear tightly in his hand.

They easily escaped from the place of death, and now they are here to die!

A stream of hot blood suddenly surged from Wei Changfeng's chest. He turned around, led his horse, came to Zhao Zi'an's side, and said loudly: "General, please lead the team to retreat first, the last general has a clever plan to stop the Donghu army!" ”

The spirits of all who heard this were lifted.

Wei Changfeng has a plan again!

"Speak quickly!" Zhao Zi'an is also in good spirits, and he is really in a desperate situation.

Wei Changfeng shook his head: "General, the matter is urgent, the last general really doesn't have time to explain, just ask the general to lead the team to withdraw first, the last general has his own clever plan!" ”

Zhao Zi'an was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask, but he heard the sound of the horn loud, and there was a rumbling and rumbling sound in the distance, like a muffled thunder, and the color immediately changed.

It was the cavalry of the Donghu Army that was dispatched! Such a power is impossible to achieve without tens of thousands of people, and it seems that the Donghu army is being pursued by the whole army!

"Okay," Zhao Zi'an finally made up his mind, "You go and join Bai Dutong, tell Bai Dutong about your strategy, if you really don't have time, I will temporarily appoint you as a guerrilla, with full command of Bai Dutong and his troops!" ”

"Order!" Wei Changfeng responded loudly. He knew that Zhao Zi'an was actually a gamble. Although guerrilla warfare is an official position that can be large or small, and it is true that it can be appointed to anyone at any time in an emergency, and it can command any rank below the rank of General Chang, there is no precedent for a single commander to be a guerrilla. But he didn't intend to refuse, because this was his first and probably the last time he commanded the troops.

"The whole army changes formation and accelerates the retreat!" Zhao Zi'an ordered.

The shape of the Han army changed rapidly. This time the soldiers did not hesitate. "Chief Wei Shi has a clever plan!" This news quietly spread throughout the entire team, everyone was very excited, it seems that they don't have to wait for death, just wait for Wei Shi's clever plan to save the people, of course, they themselves have to go quickly, they can't be caught up by the Donghu army.

Wei Changfeng ran into Bai Qi in less than half a mile, and as soon as they met, Bai Qi rushed to salute Wei Changfeng: "Wei Guerrilla, the last general and his subordinates will listen to instructions." ”

Wei Changfeng was stunned for a moment. General Zhao's order was, "If you really don't have time, I will temporarily appoint you as a guerrilla and have full command of Bai Dutong and his troops", which means that there is really no other way for him to command Bai Qi, but Bai Qi is simply and neatly handed over the command.

"Bai Dutong, General Zhao means ......"

"The general thought that it would be more convenient for the guerrillas to exercise their tactics in person." Bai Qi directly interrupted Wei Changfeng's words.

Wei Changfeng could only nod his head in thanks. Bai Qi is right, if he has a clever plan, it is more convenient for him to direct the command, it is much faster than explaining slowly first and then asking for consent, and then ordering by Bai Qi. Bai Dutong, sorry! Wei Changfeng secretly apologized in his heart, but he ordered in his mouth: "Let the brothers divide on both sides of the road first, and wait for the main force to pass." ”

"Order!" Bai Qi did not hesitate to respond to the order.

In the dark night, every soldier on the road was in a hurry, and the rumbling hooves of the Donghu Iron Cavalry were like a drum urging life, a gong chasing souls, and everyone wanted to be faster.

Zhao Zi'an's horse hurriedly swept past Wei Changfeng's side, walked forward, and suddenly took the horse back again, Zhao Zi'an said to Wei Changfeng in a deep voice on the horse: "Wei Shichang, you must return safely!" ”

Wei Changfeng nodded.

Zhao Zi'an waved his hand and hurried away. After a while, there were no soldiers on the road, and the nearby place suddenly quieted down, a few miles away, the figures swayed, and the people of Xingcheng approached, and a few miles back, the fire was bright, the sound of hooves was loud, and the cavalry of the Donghu army was coming with all their might!
