Chapter 10: Sacrifice?

Hanjindu.

Without the drag of 100,000 people, the road was unimpeded, and two days later, Liu Feng rushed to Hanjindu with Liu Bei and more than 30 others.

On the slope of Zhuma Mountain, Liu Bei looked at the endless ferry of ships, and there was a rare smile on his tired face, which was a smile that did not die and escaped from the heavens.

"It seems that the sky is endless, and I Liu Bei is also, but it's a pity that 100,000 innocent people were killed by Cao thieves in vain." While Liu Bei was happy, he did not forget to complain for the people who followed him.

"Those people can't be regarded as sacrificing in vain, and it is fortunate that they were brought with them at that time, if they did not block the pursuing soldiers, the lord would not have been able to retreat safely."

Liu Feng turned his head and found the person who said this in the crowd, it was his "uncle" Mi Zhu, the old face showed a little smugness, but in Liu Feng's opinion, this was quite out of place.

Liu Bei has always believed in benevolence and righteousness, what does it mean for you, the brother-in-law, to say such things now? Is it implying that I, Liu Bei, had a plan and deliberately took those people as meat shields?

Sure enough, Liu Bei nodded slightly at first, and then reacted suddenly, the smile on his face suddenly closed, and he immediately changed to a little displeasure.

Mi Zhu realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said indignantly: "Cao thief exterminated people's surnames, and even slaughtered innocent people, it is indeed extremely hateful, but it is a pity that the lord is weak, and he can't save those people with all his might, alas, it's a pity." ”

Although Liu Bei didn't say a word, Liu Feng saw the change in his expression clearly, and suddenly his heart twitched, it turned out that the truth was so terrible.

When he set out from Fancheng before, Liu Bei could have moved south with light troops and quickly seized Jiangling, but when more and more civilians spontaneously followed with their families, Liu Bei had to slow down. In Liu Feng's view, Liu Bei's approach, whether it was out of sincerity or as a last resort, was always in the name of benevolence and righteousness.

However, now it seems that Liu Bei still has the idea of using those 100,000 civilians as a meat shield to block Cao Jun?

Thinking of this, Liu Feng's heart suddenly shuddered: It seems that the historical figures in the books I know are just superficial, and no one can guess how dark the real inside story is.

"Let's go, let's go and meet Yun Chang first."

Liu Bei waved his horsewhip and led everyone to rush down the hillside, heading towards Hanjindu, which was close at hand.

Liu Bei's arrival made the Hanjin Wharf thunderous one after another. After hearing the news of the defeat of Changbanpo, the Liu family soldiers of these naval armies have been uneasy, and rumors have been circulating in the army that the lord Liu Bei died in the chaos.

Following behind Liu Bei, galloping on the trestle, at the end of the trestle, a tall and heroic figure gradually approached, and when there were still a few steps away, Liu Feng could already feel the strong aura emanating from the person.

The man was nine feet tall, and his body was as great as a mountain, and he stood like a high mountain rising over the plain. His face was red, like a burning fire, his long black hair was over his abdomen, his eyes were half open and half closed, he was not angry and arrogant, even in front of Liu Bei, he still had a arrogant attitude that looked down on the world.

In the lower half of his body, there seemed to be a giant snake as dazzling as fire circulating, like a dream. Only after a closer look did it become clear that the burning fire was only a huge red war horse, the slender and strong limbs of the war horse, the strip-like muscles attached to it, as if made of steel, and the smooth skin was as bright as a blazing flame. In the wind of Xiao Xiaojiang, the red mane dancing with the wind seemed to be a thousand fire snakes.

Beautiful bearded male, red rabbit horse!

Even if you are the eldest son of the Liu family, you are nominally the lord of the person in front of you, but no matter when and where, whenever you meet Guan Yu, Liu Feng's heart will be intimidated by his innate strong sense of oppression that despises everything.

It was an indescribable unease, as if every nerve was invaded by the cold, compared to the feeling of oppression brought to them by Xu Chu, it was simply incomparable.

"Yun Chang, you and my brother almost can't see each other." After the catastrophe, the brothers reunited, and Liu Bei felt infinite emotion.

Guan Yu's jujube red face was as calm as water, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly: "Big brother, don't worry about it, we haven't been defeated before, it's a big deal to make a comeback." ”

Liu Bei nodded, and his spirits refreshed: "Well, that's right, it's back." ”

Liu Bei, Guan Yu and other decision-making figures went to the big tent that had been built for Liu Bei one after another, and the rest of them settled in the camp in Jinkou to rest.

Guan Yu's department rushed to Hanjindu two days ago, and built a simple camp around the ferry, while Zhuge Liang, who arrived in advance, went to Jiangxia first, and after determining that Liu Qi could be persuaded to join forces to resist Cao, the brigade went down the Yangtze River to Jiangxia to rendezvous. Prior to this, all the men and horses of the Liu family army temporarily stayed in Hanjin for temporary rest and recuperation, and sheltered the soldiers who were defeated from Changbanpo one after another.

A day later, at dusk, Liu Feng was lying on his back on a sheepskin blanket bored, the tent curtains were rolled up, and the pale yellow sunset penetrated through the tent door, sprinkled on his face with bits and pieces, with a long-lost warmth and quietness.

There was a sound of footsteps in his ears, and the warmth on his face disappeared, replaced by a faint fragrance that soaked into his nose. Liu Feng, who was half-awake and half-awake, vaguely felt that something was approaching his body again.

After experiencing the battle of life and death in Changbanpo, Liu Feng has formed a martial instinct, and even in his sleep, his body can still maintain a high degree of alertness.

Suddenly, he woke up.

A figure blocked the light, and when he first opened his eyes, his vision was chaotic, and he couldn't see the face of the comer for a while.

"What people!"

He didn't have time to think about it, the tiger palm grabbed the man's outstretched arm, jumped up at the waist, and pressed the man to the ground like lightning, in the sharp scream, Liu Feng had already ridden on the man, and one hand choked the other party's neck.

When his vision finally became clear, Liu Feng found that it was only a woman who was pressed to the ground by him, and he was shocked, only to realize that he had overreacted, and quickly let go of his hand and helped the woman up.

After a closer look, Liu Feng recognized who she was, and couldn't help but be embarrassed.

Her long black hair poured down like a waterfall, all the way over her slender waist, and her delicate skin was as clear as ice, as if frost and snow were piled up.

At this time, she was still in fright, looking at Liu Feng with a pinched red face with resentment, Sakuraguchi gasped rapidly, a pair of slender hands gently supported her snow-white neck, and her towering chest rose and fell with violent breathing.
