Chapter 415: Retreat

Ma Chao hugged his fists and said: "General, it's up to me to attract and attract the enemy army!" Huang Zhong frowned and said, "General, your safety is very important, and you must not take risks!" Either I will come, or Meng will rise, but it must not be taken by the general! ”

"Okay, don't fight! Only if I stay can I attract the attention of the enemy, and none of you can do it! That's it! ”

Huang Zhong said: "If the general has three longs and two shorts, how should we explain to everyone?" The general is concerned about the safety and well-being of the people in the world, and he must not take such a risk! Even if all the people and soldiers here are sacrificed, the general must be guaranteed to be safe and sound! Ma Chao said: "The old general is right! ”

Zhang Lang said: "I understand your thoughts and intentions. If things must not be done, I will naturally make a choice, but the current state of affairs has not reached the point where I have to sacrifice one side! He glanced at the two of them and asked with a smile, "Don't you have faith in me?" The two generals hurriedly clasped their fists and said: "The last general will not dare!" Just ......"

Zhang Lang said: "There must be some risks on the battlefield, if I am worried about these risks, I don't need to go to the battlefield!" Rest assured, I am sure to get rid of the Xianbei people. ”

Ma Chao frowned and said: "The general has made up his mind, and it will be useless for me to persuade him later!" If the general really has an accident, I, Ma Chao, will definitely not live alone, and vow to follow Jiuquan! Huang Zhong nodded, "Meng Qi said it well!" Chao Zhang Lang hugged his fists and said: "The general is benevolent and righteous, and he is willing to risk all kinds of risks to save these people!" I, Huang Zhong, am very glad to be able to follow the general! If we can't see each other in a few days, the last general is willing to follow the general under Jiuquan with Ma Chao! ”

Zhang Lang was moved in his heart, and said angrily: "Damn! I said you two won't say a few auspicious words? The second general smiled.

Ma Xiu rushed over, clenched his fists and said, "General, all the armies have been assembled!" At this moment, nearly 200,000 war cavalry have been assembled in the open space next to the people, divided into two parts, one part of more than 20,000 horsemen, half of the hussars, half of the assault cavalry, and the other part of 178,000 horses, which is the main force.

Zhang Lang glanced at Huang Zhong and Ma Chao beside him, and the two generals rode their horses to the main force in front of them, and said loudly: "Everyone obeys the order, hand over all the flags to the brothers on the left, and then put on the coats of those people!" Fast! ”

The main force immediately moved into action, and all the flags were handed over to the 20,000 horsemen, and then they went to the large pile of clothes one after another, and picked up one and put it outside. In a short time, the main force of 1780,000 became 1780,000 'common people' on horseback.

Zhang Lang smiled: "The effect is good. ”

Wang Kai, who was leading a horse, asked Wang Kai next to him in confusion: "Father, what are the generals doing?" Wang Kai frowned and shook his head, "I don't know." ”

Ma Chao and Huang Zhong returned to Zhang Lang, hugged their fists and said, "General, everything is done." ”

Zhang Lang nodded, "Let's go." ”

The second general hugged his fist towards Zhang Lang with a solemn expression, turned his horse's head, ran back to the middle of the main team, and said loudly: "Go." The main force of 1780,000 cavalry immediately turned to the west and embarked on the road to the west, and immediately, a team of nearly 100,000 people also set off and followed the main force to the west. More than 200,000 people, in the afterglow of the setting sun, began to retreat.

Wang Yi, who was sitting behind his father, looked back at Zhang Lang and the more than 20,000 war horsemen who were left behind, and asked puzzledly: "Father, why don't they leave, general?" Wang Kai shook his head, "I don't know." ”

Wang Yi stretched out his hands from under his father's ribs to pull the reins, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and with a soft click, the horse led his father and daughter to the front of the horse. Wang Kai asked puzzledly, "What are you going to do?" Wang Yi didn't speak. Wang Yi rode his horse to the front of Ma Tie and restrained the horse. Ma Tie hurriedly restrained Ma Tie, and when he saw that it was the father and daughter who were different, he felt strange in his heart. Wang Yi jumped off the horse, stepped forward and hugged his fists and said, "General, the grass people are offended!" ”

Ma Tiedao: "It's okay. Is there something wrong with you? ”

Wang Yi raised his head, "The people don't understand something, why did the general and the more than 20,000 soldiers stay in Shanwu City?" ”

Ma Tie sighed and glanced at the countless people around him, "Because the general wants to save you!" The general has decided to use himself as bait to draw all the attention of the enemy to himself, so that you can get out! ”

Wang Yi and Wang Kai only felt a shock in their hearts. It took a long time before I came back to my senses. Wang Yi glanced at Zhang Lang in the distance, made up his mind in his heart, and hugged his fist at Ma Tie and said: "General, the grass people are very familiar with the terrain in this area, and I hope to stay by the general's side to help the general!" Ma Tie nodded, "It's rare that you have a heart!" However, this matter must be done with the consent of the general. ”

Wang Yi immediately said to Wang Kai: "Father, you go first, I'm going to help the general!" ”

Wang Kai smiled bitterly: "Since you want to stay, where else can I go?" Let's stay, father and daughter! Since the general spared no expense for us, we should naturally serve the general with all our hearts! Wang Yi nodded and turned over on his horse. The father and daughter hugged their fists at Ma Tie and rode back.

Huang Zhong, who was at the front of the team, said to Ma Chao: "Meng Qi, let's quickly escort these people to a safe place, and then turn around to meet the general!" Ma Chao said: "What the old general said is exactly what I want!" Huang Zhong was overjoyed, "Then don't rest tonight, let's go on the road at the same time!" Ma Chao nodded.

Zhang Lang rode on the red rabbit horse, glanced at the more than 20,000 soldiers in front of him, and saw that everyone's eyes were extremely firm. Zhang Lang was relieved in his heart, and said apologetically: "Follow me, a great general, who failed to give you wealth and glory, but often took you into danger, I, Lu Bu, am worthy of the world, but I am sorry for everyone!" ”

A subordinate general hugged his fists and said: "It is a blessing for us to be able to follow the general in my previous life!" We don't want glory and wealth, we just live and die with the general! All the soldiers shouted in unison: "Live and die together!" Live and die together! "The sound is loud and loud, not mixed with the slightest distraction.

Wang Yiwang rode to the vicinity on horseback, and when he saw such a scene, his heart was shocked. Wang Kai couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It was rumored before that the general was a slave with three surnames! Now it seems that none of the so-called heroes and nobles in the world can be compared with the generals! ”

Zhang Lang saw Wang Yiwang and his father and daughter, and asked puzzledly, "Why did you two come back?" Then he smiled half-jokingly: "This is not a place where ordinary people should stay!" ”

The father and daughter hurriedly bowed down and came forward to bow. Wang Kai said: "The generals have stayed, how scarce are the grass people!" Wang Yi said: "Our father and daughter are familiar with the local terrain and want to stay to help the general!" ”
