In the face of Kebi Neng's attack once again with innocent Han people as meat shields, Liu He's heart was dripping blood, and he even began to hesitate whether to temporarily abandon Macheng and lead the troops to withdraw to Ningcheng.

"Childe, you still need to grit your teeth at this time! If you are soft-hearted at the head of Macheng City today, when you conquer other forces in the future, they can also use innocent people as human shields, and there will only be more people who die like that......" Although Guo Jia's heart was also unbearable, at this critical moment, he still reminded Liu He softly.

"Feng Xiao is right, there is no need for a woman's kindness at this time!" Liu He nodded, "Pass my military order down, raise two red Liu Zi banners at the head of the city, all soldiers, not half a step back, let alone half a hesitation and weakness!" ”

A moment later, an extremely rare blood-colored banner was raised on the north and south sides of the arrow tower where Liu He stopped.

"Look, brothers! The eldest prince's blood-colored twin flags have been raised! ”

"Oh my God, it's really the Scarlet Twin Flags!"

"After the blood-colored twin flags are raised, it means that I am invincible, I will not take half a step back, I will not accept the surrender of any enemy, and I will hunt and kill the fleeing enemy for the rest of my life until the end of the earth!"

"Brothers, kill! I am invincible, never take half a step back! Sun Li yelled loudly.

"Folks, the eldest prince's blood-colored double flag has been raised, he will avenge you in this life, all the Xianbei people who have harmed you, every one of them will be martyred for you! Kill, brethren! Murong Ping raised his black giant bow and shot an arrow at a Xianbei man who was hiding behind the Han people, and the sharp arrow hit him in the left eye and pierced the head of the Xianbei leader.

The Dragon and Tiger Guards guarding Macheng are the most loyal, and the military discipline is strict, and they are all Han soldiers, and their main task is to protect the safety of the eldest prince and the Taifu. Now that the main general Liu He raised the blood-colored double Liu flag, they did not have any hesitation, but when the Han people outside the city had all been killed by the Xianbei people, they calmly and calmly shot all kinds of long-range and short-range weapons at the enemy, and shot at the Han people who were blocking the enemy......

Kebineng had never seen the blood-colored twin flags before, and although he still didn't understand the meaning of the blood-red twin flags made by the Han army at this time, he also felt a faint hairy feeling in his heart after seeing the Han soldiers at the head of the city attack even more frantically. After all the people who rushed forward in the second round were dead, Kobineng finally ordered his troops to retreat and temporarily stop attacking Macheng.

Although most of the Han people died in the two rounds of siege. But the Xianbei people also paid more than 2,000 lives, and if they continued to wear it out like this, the Han army defending the city had almost no casualties, but the leaders of the tribes could not withstand it.

Seeing that the Xianbei people finally withdrew, Liu He seemed to be evacuated. He sat on the blue brick floor of the arrow tower and covered his eyes tightly with his hands.

All of a sudden. The quiet needle drop inside and outside the arrow tower can be heard.

Guo Jia and others withdrew lightly. Let Liu He be alone quietly.

Xu Miao and Liu Fang, who were not in the city to watch the battle, quietly came to the city at some point, and when they came to the place where Guo Jia was stood, they saw that Guo Jia, Sun Li and Murong Ping were all with heavy faces, and no one spoke.

Xu Miao whispered: "The people inside the city already know about the things outside the city. No one thinks Childe is cruel and murderous. They remembered this blood feud on Kebineng. ”

Guo Jia sighed and said: "If there are people in the city who complain that Gongzi is cruel and murderous, then his heart can be punished." If Childe didn't think about the safety of the soldiers and civilians in the city, why would he bear today's notoriety? He could have just walked away. ”

"After today's events, I'm afraid that the eldest prince is going to kill Xianbei people...... In the past, the eldest prince was still more merciful and generous to the Hu people captured on the battlefield. There has never been a pit killing. Alas, this time Kebi can be self-defeating, it is really self-defeating......" Liu Fang said with some concern.

"Childe let people raise the blood-colored double flags, this is the first time since the establishment of the armies in Youzhou, I hope that no one will provoke Childe's anger like this in the future." Xu Miao also sighed.

"There is a saying that 'when the Son of Heaven is angry, millions of corpses will be ambushed', although the son is not the Son of Heaven now, but the power in his hands, if he really wants to kill people, there are more than millions! A Zhenhu tablet on Longtou Ridge can make thousands of Xianbei people become fans in an instant, similar means, I don't know how much is hidden in the child's chest, I really want to use all the Xianbei people, there will be no Xianbei people in the world in the future, it's really hard to say. Guo Jia shook his head and walked slowly towards the city, as if he was a little tired.

"General Murong, come over for a moment." Liu He's voice came from inside the arrow tower.

Murong Ping heard the call of the son, and immediately walked into the building quickly.

Liu He said expressionlessly: "You immediately take a team of men and horses out of the city, check the casualties under the city, and remember to make up a few more knives when you encounter Xianbei people who have not yet lost their breath; When encountering innocent people who still have breath, rescue them at any cost! By the way, look out for a slumped woman with a baby in her arms, and if the child survives the arrows, carry me into the city at once! ”

"Obedience!" Murong Ping replied loudly and hurriedly turned around and walked out of the building.

The Han army guarding the city was not afraid of the Xianbei people going and returning, because there was an advanced equipment such as a clairvoyant mirror that could look dozens of miles into the distance, and if the Xianbei people wanted to play the trick of deceitful retreat, they would simply bring humiliation on themselves. Dozens of miles away, when the Xianbei army surrounds it, the troops out of the city can run back and forth several times!

Murong Ping took a thousand soldiers out of the west gate of Macheng, and began to check the survivors according to Liu He's instructions. For the people who were not hit by the arrows, they were immediately given medicine to stop the bleeding, and the soldiers were carried on stretchers to the city's medical aid station for first aid.

In the process of search and rescue, Murong Ping specially asked his soldiers to pay attention to the woman who was hit by the arrow, and it didn't take long to finally find the woman mentioned by Liu He who was curled up to protect the child and was hit by the arrow.

Murong Ping vigorously broke the two arms of the woman who had been dead for a long time, and saw a small black head, he carefully took the child out of the woman's arms, put his hand on the child's neck to test it, and found that the child still had a pulse, so he hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and come over a doctor, this baby's pulse is still beating!" ”

A nearby doctor hurriedly rushed over, took the child from Murong Ping's hand, cleaned the blood soaked in the child's mouth and nose with a clean cloth, and then carefully pressed the child's chest, and finally rescued the baby.

Not long after, the child was sent by the soldiers into the arrow tower at the head of the city.

The child was covered in blood scabs, but it was all from her mother's body, and the child herself was not injured by the arrows.

This is a one-year-old baby girl, because she left her mother's arms, and was held in her hands by a strange man at this time, so she cried and shouted vaguely "Mom, want Mom to ......"

"Hard-working child, since you were spared outside Macheng, I will give you the surname Ma, and call you Xing'er." Liu He muttered to himself. "Jingshan, look for a family in the city where a woman is nursing a child, and temporarily foster the child, and when I am done with this busy time, I will recognize her as a righteous daughter!"

Xu Miao nodded, didn't ask much, gently took the crying child, and turned to leave.

That night, Liu He gathered to discuss matters.

Liu He spoke first: "I carefully recalled what happened during the day, and I feel that Kebineng seems to be deliberately provoking me, what do you think about this?" ”

Guo Jia nodded and immediately said, "Childe's concern is not unreasonable. His subordinates had already sent people to Baishan City to inform General Yu Zilong of what had happened in Macheng today. If Kebi can deliberately provoke Gongzi, the most likely thing is to cover for a sneak attack on Youzhou, and if he wants to sneak attack Youzhou, he must send cavalry to bypass Baishan! ”

Liu He groaned: "After Zilong learned about the tragedy that happened here in Macheng, he should understand my intentions, right?" ”

"General Zilong, I won't let you down!" Guo Jia understood what Liu He was thinking, and replied very affirmatively.

"Jingshan, presumably the news of today's war will soon spread from Bingzhou to all over the country, some guys who don't do personnel and can only make trouble, will definitely take this opportunity to pour dirty water on me, and count the death and injury of tens of thousands of people in Bingzhou on my head, and the Propaganda Division will have a-for-tat contest!"

"My subordinates understand! This time, if it weren't for Yuan Shao's Northern Route Army in Bingzhou repeatedly retreating, and sitting back and watching Chief Hu swallow up the territory of our Han Dynasty and Bingzhou, how could such a tragic thing happen! Gongzi reluctantly gave the order, just to protect the people of Youzhou from the harm of the Hu people, otherwise the experience of the people of Youzhou today will be the result of the people of Youzhou tomorrow! ”

Xu Miao had obviously thought about how to maintain Liu He's image and how to deal with possible attacks by other forces.

"Ziqi, the seriously injured people rescued by General Murong from outside the city today, the school captain's mansion must try its best to treat them at any cost, and the people who unfortunately died must also mobilize the people in the city to work together to find a suitable place in the east of the city for a collective burial."

"Don't worry, Childe, your subordinates will do their best!" Liu Fang received the order in a deep voice.

"Deda, tonight I will lead my troops out of the city to clean up the outside of the city, cut off the heads of the Xianbei people, load them in ox carts, and send them to all the counties and counties. As for the remaining limbs of these miscellaneous pieces, pour them with fierce fire oil, and burn them all clean, so that the corpses may not decompose and cause us to be plagued. ”

"The last general will obey the orders of the son!" Sun Li didn't say a word, and immediately got up and left.

When only Liu He and Guo Jia were left in the room, Liu He asked Guo Jia: "When can we have a head-to-head showdown with the main force of Kebineng?" ”

"It won't be long. As long as we know that Kebi can act secretly and solve the strange troops that he may send, we can mobilize the troops from the north and south to fight him in a decisive battle north of Daqingshan! ”

"Good! This time, this son will personally lead the army to fight this thief! (To be continued......)
