Chapter 69 Victory and Defeat
The place where Wei Zeng chose to ambush was in the shape of a cloth bag, and the mountain pass was very narrow, but the inside was very wide. As long as the exit pass is blocked, almost no one can escape.
In order to chase and kill Wei Zeng, Wu Deli ventured in, and was very shocked when he saw the ambush soldiers. But Wu Deli knew that the situation was critical, so he didn't lead people to break out, but killed Wei Zeng in the past.
"Wei Zeng, no matter whether you win or lose today, I will kill you. As long as I kill you, you rabble, don't think about resisting my old Qin elite for a moment. Oudli shouted.
"Udeli, you're also a veteran of the battlefield. Don't you see the situation clearly? You don't stand a chance anymore, and surrendering is the only thing you can do right now. You can't beat me, and there's no shame in failing. Wei Zeng said with a smile.
"Don't talk nonsense, take it!" When Wu Deli heard Wei Zeng's words, he was even more annoyed in his heart, and regardless of all the dangers ahead, he went straight to Wei Zeng and killed him.
In the face of Wu Deli and his hundreds of personal guards, everyone around Wei Zeng raised their bows and arrows, and they were about to shoot them on the way to charge.
"Listen, everyone, I don't care about the others, the veteran in the middle is mine, and no one can hurt him." Wei Zeng shouted, and then gave the order to charge.
After receiving the order, the thousands of cavalry around Wei Zeng shot a rain of arrows, and then rushed towards the surrounded enemy, leaving Wu Deli alone to face Wei Zeng alone.
When Udeli became famous, he was close to the age of not being confused, and he was full of hope for the future. But a failure made him lose everything, and in the small town southwest of Anyun, he stayed for nearly ten years.
Later, the iron-blooded army recovered, and after Wei Zeng's defeat, he disappeared, and Wu Deli also resumed his former identity. And after Xian Gu succeeded to the throne, he also became a trusted minister, and it seems that the shadow of past failures should be dispersed.
In fact, there has always been another knot in his heart, after all, bearing defeat is also an indescribable torture for a battlefield veteran.
Bai Zheng and Udeli never mentioned the events of the year, as if everything had passed. But both of them know that nothing has passed, it's just that no one wants to face the shadow hidden in their hearts.
Bai Zheng died on the battlefield three years ago, and the veteran of the iron-blooded army who fought with Wei Zeng twenty years ago was left with only Wu Deli. He has already made defeating Wei Zeng the last mission of his life. It's just the last veteran, but he has to bear the shame of the final defeat, and Udeli regrets why it wasn't himself who died on the battlefield three years ago.
"It's been twenty years, I've waited for twenty years, and I've finally found a chance to fight you to the death. This time I'm going to die, and I'm not going to suffer the shame of defeat again. Wei Zeng, let's have a good fight. Wu Deli shouted and rushed towards Wei Zeng.
Wei Zeng wanted to mock a few words and said, "A loser is a loser, I was able to defeat you once, and today I can still make you lose completely." But when Wei Zeng saw Wu Deli's anger with sadness, sadness with helplessness, and helplessness with desperate eyes, Wei Zeng had a sense of déjà vu.
That's right, after losing everything, when he was independent and had nothing to rely on, Wei Zeng personally experienced this feeling. The bitterness at that time, the helplessness at that time, and the despair at that time have long been in the past, but how can Wei Zeng forget?
Wei Zeng didn't say anything, and subdued Wu Deli in three strokes and two blows. Wei Zeng is forty years old and at the peak of his life, and it is not difficult to subdue an old general.
"Everyone, stop, your boss has been subdued by me. Surrender all, and I can spare your lives. After Wei Zeng subdued Wu Deli, he immediately shouted to the old Qin soldiers opposite.
"The old Qin people would rather die than surrender, you don't have to worry about me, you all rush out. If you run out alone, you have to tell your hometown fathers and elders that I, Udli, am standing and dying. Wu Deli shouted loudly, and after speaking, he slammed into the blade next to him, but was dragged by Wei Zeng and failed.
"Do you really want to die?" Wei Zeng shouted at Wu Deli.
"What's so terrible about dying, doesn't it depend on whether you show off your might? As soon as I, Udeli, fight on the battlefield, I deserve to die on the battlefield. Surrender to you and let me endure humiliation, you are mistaken. Oudli said angrily.
"What's so terrible about dying? What's so hard about dying? The difficult thing is that you can't live with dignity; The terrible thing is that you can't live like a human being while you live. Wei Zeng said.
"What do you mean?" Oudli said through gritted teeth.
"It doesn't mean anything. If it had been before, if you had fallen into my hands, I would never have spared you. If it had been before, these people were surrounded by me, and I would never let go of any of them. But I'm not who I used to be. I had vowed that as long as I could find my loved ones again, I would never kill anyone again. But I found that in this troubled world, I couldn't make this vow. But an oath is an oath, and I can only say, kill a person, or live a person, and when I can't choose, I won't choose; But when I had a choice, I chose to live alone. After Wei Zeng finished speaking, he let go of Wu Deli.
"Do you think I'll be grateful to you if you let me go? If you let me go, I will take my people and you to continue to fight until one day I can defeat you and let you also taste the pain of defeat. Wu Deli took a few steps back, his face was full of struggle, and after a slight pause, he gritted his teeth and pointed at Wei Zeng and said.
"It doesn't matter, it's my choice, and it has nothing to do with you. Do what you want. But let me tell you, there is no winner in a war, and as long as the war lasts, everyone will taste the pain of defeat. You know that feeling, and I know it, but I don't have a personal experience in Xiangu, and it's very unclear. I only hope that in the future, he will not regret today's actions. After Wei Zeng finished speaking, he left Wudeli and walked to the depths of Yishan.
When Wu Deli was subdued by Wei Zeng, the two sides had already stopped fighting, and when Wei Zeng left with everyone, the old Qin soldiers hurriedly protected Wu Deli around.
"General Wu, the enemy has retreated, whether we retreat or pursue forward."
"What are you chasing? We have lost, not only on the battlefield, but also morally. Go back, those people in Yishan are not something we can defeat. After some struggle, Udeli sighed and retreated with his troops.
Not long after this battle began, the Kansai soldiers, who had not moved, finally came out. The Kwansai Army was dispatched, and Udeli also completely evacuated near Yishan. And with the addition of the Kwantan Army, the war situation became more and more favorable to Wei Zeng. (To be continued.) )
