Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Signs of Defeat Have Been Presented

Wang Ping looked at Huo Yi gloomily, his face gloomy: "General Huo is so powerful, it is strange that he can be so old at this age, poisoning 3,000 people in one go, and the ghosts of the underworld are not far behind!" ”

Huo Yi turned his head and looked at Wang Ping strangely, there are few people in this era who take the lives of ordinary soldiers very seriously like Wang Ping, and even fall into their own hands, they are not afraid of being killed by themselves, but they still want to ridicule themselves.

Zhao Tong glanced at Wang Ping coldly: "My generals have always been outstanding for their benevolence and righteousness, and the soldiers under the tent must serve with death!" Those 3,000 men and horses were just poisoned by diarrhea and temporarily lost their ability to fight, but you are kind to your subordinates, but why do you serve the unkind and unrighteous Cao Mengde? You don't know, how many tens of thousands of lives were slaughtered by Cao Mengde! ”

Wang Ping glanced at Huo Yi when he heard this: "General Huo is not afraid that those soldiers under the command of the last general will turn against the water?" After all, you don't have many subordinates, how do you take care of these captives? Or are you going to let 3,000 people go back to Dingjun Mountain Village? ”

Huo Yi pulled up Wang Ping: "There is no food available in Dingjun Mountain!" The rout is a matter of time or time, didn't General Wang think that General Zhang He Zhang would be able to take the army without food and capture the southern Zhengjian City? It's easy to keep these captives! With only half a meal a day, do they still have the strength to fight against our army? ”

Wang Ping glanced at Huo Yi deeply, and said calmly: "Dare to ask General Huo, where is your ambition?" ”

Huo Yi stood with a gun in his hand, and said loudly: "I use the glorious Han Wei to destroy the injustice, annihilate the thief Cao Mengde, kidnap the Han Emperor, and humiliate the Han Chen. ”

In fact, Wang Ping was born in a barbarian family, and he didn't have much sense of belonging to the Han family, all he wanted was to be able to make a name for himself, which can be seen from his struggle in Cao Jun. What's even more difficult is that although Wang Ping can't be regarded as a person, he is a rare general, as long as he is given enough status, it is enough to win this person.

This person is different from Guan Zhang Zhao, what he wants is just an opportunity to show his talents, this opportunity Cao Jun can't give, if he gives it, he will definitely be able to win this person's heart. Although this man was in danger, he was extremely calm, and he had just entered the city, and he had already noticed some details. Sure enough, it is the same as recorded in the official history, strong and alert.

After listening to Huo Yi's words, Wang Ping just thought about it before and after, and did not speak. Huo Yi knew that he only needed to go one step further to accept this person, and after thinking about it, he said: "General Wang doesn't have to worry, General Zhang treats General Wang well, and after the battle formation, Yi will not make the general and General Zhang face each other." ”

Wang Ping raised his head again, stunned in his heart, he didn't say these concerns, but Huo Yi was thorough, and getting this promise was enough to see Huo Yi's sincerity, Wang Ping thought to himself that if he didn't agree again, he would inevitably be a little self-conscious. Wang Ping knelt on one knee: "I am willing to serve the battlefield from before and after the general!" ”

Huo Yi squinted his eyes and helped Wang Ping up, and said with a smile: "General Wang, like a tiger with wings!" Even if you give Huo Yi Wanjun again, you won't change it! Although these generals are more than Wang Ping and other famous generals in later generations, Huo Yi is more lacking than military horses, if there are really 10,000 people and Huo Yi for Wang Ping, Huo Yi will not hesitate to sell this guy.

Wang Ping looked at Huo Yi's harmless smile on his face, but he was very moved in his heart, thinking about the former like Zhang He and others, although he also attached importance to himself, how could he have such a grand ceremony as General Huo, and set a note for himself, just to be able to make himself serve him, and to be treated so favorably by a master, it is worth it!

Huo Yi looked at Wang Ping's nostalgic look, and his heart was secretly refreshed, it turned out to be like his own father-in-law, but it turned out to be so easy to use, he just learned some skin, so he had the loyalty of a character like Wang Ping, and he looked down on Liu Bei's ability in his heart.

Five days later, the Dingjun Mountain camp, Huo Yi deliberately put back a few soldiers rushed back to Dazhai with a roar, Xiahou Yuan and Zhang He sat in the tent, and Xu Huang did not arrive at Dingjun Mountain because of the defense of Yangping Pass.

Xiahou Yuan heard the urgent report of a few soldiers under the account, that is, the surname of Ping Su was kind, and at this moment, he did not draw his sword to cut the handsome case, and looked at Zhang He coldly: "General Zhang!" This is the person you call worthy of the responsibility? Before a battle, the whole army was killed! What's wrong? Listening to the meaning of these people, is this Wang Ping still Huo Yi who took the initiative to serve? ”

Zhang He's face was blood-red, one was ashamed because the person he recommended surrendered to the Shu army, and the other was because Xiahou Yuan's words were too intense, which made him lose face. But he knew that the most taboo thing at the moment was to fight in the nest, so he had to say in an urn: "The general is angry!" The last general doesn't know anyone, and I hope that the general will include it, but it's useless to dwell on this matter at the moment! Huo Yi's men and horses occupied Nanzheng, and the supply baggage in our army was all in Nanzheng, and the previous grain transport had not yet arrived, and the grain and grass in the army was already less than half a month, so if it went on, it was not far from the collapse of the whole army! ”

Hearing this, Xiahou Yuan also understood the truth, sat down dejectedly, held his sword with one hand, and said hatefully: "Now there are only two ways, one is to divide the troops to Nanzheng, and attack the city with all his strength to recapture the grain and grass; Second, there is only a frontal battle with the Shu army, and if you win, you can protect Hanzhong, and if you lose, the whole army will be exhausted, and you and I will not be exempt! ”

Zhang He frowned when he heard this: "The prime minister has arrived in Guanzhong, can you send someone to Guanzhong to ask for help urgently!" ”

Xiahou Yuan shook his head: "Although Guanzhong is not far from Hanzhong, it will take a month to come and go, plus the mobilization of troops and the preparation of grain, it will take a long time, and our army will collapse without a fight!" ”

After the second general said these words, there was a sudden silence in the tent, which was an atmosphere of almost despair.

Zhang He seemed to have mustered up enough courage and stood up: "General! He thought that our army would be defeated in this battle! Please divide the general with me, and he is willing to lead a group of men and horses to hold on here, and the general can lead the rest of the army back to Guanzhong or go to Wudu with General Gongming, and meet with General Zilian, or you can protect the army! The defeat in Hanzhong has been presented, and the general has made a decision early! ”

Xiahou Yuan got up slowly, and looked at Zhang He with a complicated face: "Junyi, the defeat in this battle is not you, but me!" You don't have to blame yourself, the lord of Hanzhong is me, and only I can thank the prime minister for his kindness when I die. ”

Zhang He was about to say something, but Xiahou Yuan raised his hand and blocked Zhang He: "It's so decided, from Ming onwards, you and Gongming will prepare the whole army, remember, the action should be small, and you must not alarm the cunning Liu Xuande on the opposite side." ”

Zhang He is not a grinding character, he stopped at the moment, and said loudly: "The cavalry under the command of He is all called by the general!" The cavalry comes and goes like the wind, which can make Liu Beijun dare not chase deeply, and can also make the general quickly leave the battlefield! The general does not need to excuse himself, and it should be regarded as a remedy for shame! ”

Xiahou Yuan looked at Zhang He, and after a while, he nodded: "Hurry up and prepare!" ”

Zhang He resolutely turned around and walked out of the tent, Xiahou Yuan sat down slowly, put the sword on his lap, and touched it with his hand: "Prime Minister!" Wonderful talent is worthy of your trust! ”
