Chapter 260: Trapped in the Valley
p> When I returned to the army, I realized that in fact, it was not Su Lijiu who led the team, but Wei Ling, that is, he followed Yuan Qing to fight and has been stationed on the frontier, Wei Ziqi's father, but even if it is not Su Lijiu, Wei Ling should be more experienced than Su Lijiu, how could he fall into the trap so easily?
The generals in the tent were gossiping, some said that they must send troops to rescue, and some strongly opposed it, because it was obvious that this was a ploy, and if they pursued again, they would also have no return.
There were different opinions, Yuan An rubbed his eyebrows with one hand, his face was impatient, and those people were still shouting for a long time, Yuan An gritted his teeth, slapped the table and shouted: "Shut up!" ”
Several people were taken aback, and they all fell silent, Yuan An took a deep breath and looked at Wu Zhan: "What do you think?" ”
Wu Zhan said in a deep voice: "Go down!" ”
"General Wu Shen!" A person next to him pulled him, and the reminder was obvious.
Wu Zhan's demeanor was firm: "Even if they are negligent for a while, I believe they will not be stupid enough to chase the enemy's hinterland, and it is impossible to encircle and suppress all 2,000 people for a while, and the subordinates feel that they are either being chased and killed, or they are besieged in the middle of the front and back!" ”
Yuan An nodded, and there were too many people under his hands who could only move their mouths and couldn't move on time: "How many people do you want?" ”
"Five thousand!" Wu Zhan said in a deep voice.
Yuan An took off the jade pendant on his waist and gave it to him: "The general will give you 5,000 people, you take the jade pendant, see the jade pendant as if you see the general, and then the command will be in your hands, if there is really no way, you don't have to be too reluctant, take you in!" ”
Wu Zhan took the jade pendant out of the tent to order troops, Hu Man was waiting outside, looking at his posture, his heart tightened: "You want to go?" ”
Wu Zhan pointed his cheek roughly: "After all, that's Lijiu, and there are still two thousand soldiers' lives!" Don't worry, I'm not here to die, just to see if there's a chance to save them! ”
Hu Man grabbed his hand and didn't let go, this is different from ordinary battles, this may be a fire pit: "Do you have to go?" ”
Wu Zhan looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "No one is willing to go, the general wants to save him in his private heart, except for me, who will stand up?" So not only because of Lijiu, but also because of the general, I have to go! ”
Wu Zhan broke her fingers and pulled out a smile: "Wait for me to come back." ”
Hu Man's heart tugged again, Su Jia came over and grabbed her hand and shook it: "I'm sorry, I know that Yuan and Wu Zhan made this decision for my brother, and I also know that it is very dangerous, but I, I really don't want my brother to have an accident." ”
Hu Man turned his head to look at Su Jiatong's red eyes, his lips trembled slightly: "I don't want to, I don't mean that, Su Gongzi is also a very good friend to me, I'm just worried about martial arts." ”
At this moment, they couldn't do anything, they could only wait for the news anxiously, and Wu Zhan took five thousand soldiers out of the city to chase, and a thousand iron horses were magnificent and mighty, rolling dust.
And when they chased after Wu Zhan, sure enough, Su Lijiu and they were surrounded by layers and were struggling to resist, and Wu Zhan waved his hand and rushed into the battlefield first.
Su Lijiu was the first to see the reinforcements, his spirits perked up, and he said loudly: "Everyone hold on!" Reinforcements arrived, rush out with me! ”
The morale of the Dashuo soldiers was immediately boosted, and they broke out in the direction they rushed in, but they were obviously prepared, and they also expected that Dashuo might send troops to rescue, and they had an advantage over them in terms of numbers.
This melee lasted for an hour, both sides were exhausted, Su Lijiu finally made peace with Wu Zhan, Wu Zhan and Su Lijiu were back to back, each cutting down the enemy in front of them, and Wu Zhan came to say "Retreat!" ”
Su Lijiu said a good word, and after leaving a few hundred people to break off, he led everyone to run back, but how could such a good opportunity be easily given up, and it was a high-ranking general who led the team, and waved his knife "Chase me!" ”
The 2,000 people Su Lijiu originally brought and the 5,000 people who fought in the armed battle now add up to less than 3,000 people, which shows the fierceness of the battle.
Seeing that the pursuers were getting closer and closer, Wu Zhan twisted his eyebrows, "We can't face each other head-on, otherwise the opponent's strength is twice as strong, we will be surrounded again, and everyone will not have the strength to rush again!" ”
"What else can I do?" Wei Ling next to him looked anxious.
Wu Zhan simply ignored him and continued to follow Su Lijiu, "For today's plan, I can only hide in the mountains!" ”
They are very clear about the terrain here, at the junction of the two mountains, there is a valley, the entrance is narrow, from there is a defense, no matter how many enemies outside, it is difficult to attack in, the terrain there can really be said to be a one-man pass, and only retreat there, there is still a chance to maneuver.
Su Lijiu's mind went through it, and he had no choice but to nod, there was no better way, he sent a few small soldiers to continue to move forward, and went back to deliver news, and it was impossible for the army to chase a few of them, and the rest of the people followed them and retreated into the valley.
There is a big place inside, and there is a cave, and there are about ten people standing side by side at the entrance, Wu Zhan went in and jumped off the horse and said: "Quick, hold the entrance, the others rest, take turns in batches!" ”
Su Lijiu was already exhausted, dismounted and leaned against the stone panting, Wu Zhan sat down next to him, and looked at Wei Ling on the other side: "He ordered to chase him?" ”
Su Lijiu poured saliva: "This turtle grandson!" Is there a brain disease?! "It's no wonder that Su Lijiu was angry, he felt strange when he fled in a panic, but this Wei Ling directly ordered the pursuit, and no one listened to him for a long time, after all, these soldiers have been following Wei Ling all year round, and Wei Ling's official rank is higher than him, so naturally they all listen to him.
Wu Zhan lips and looked at the angry Wei Ling, he is a veteran, would he make such a low-level mistake? But now that the situation is already like this, it is not the time to pursue responsibility, but it is even more necessary to accumulate physical strength and unite the morale of the army.
Wu Zhan looked at the waves of enemy troops outside, squinted his eyes, for the sake of the vines, he also had to rush out!
"It's not close here, I don't think they dare to send too many people over, lest they be surrounded by our reinforcements! All we can do now is persevere! Hold on until reinforcements come! Su Lijiu said in a loud voice: "Everyone hurry up and rest, I believe that the general will definitely send someone to save us!" ”
"What if you don't come?" Wei Ling suddenly interjected: "There has already been a wave of reinforcements, I'm afraid it will be difficult to send people again." ”
Su Lijiu took a breath in his mouth and looked at him with unkind eyes: "General Wei, speaking of which, it was your unfavorable command that put us in danger!" ”
Wei Ling's face froze: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers!" Who can guarantee that their judgment will never be wrong? I'm also trying to kill more enemies! ”
Su Lijiu sneered unceremoniously: "Since General Wei has made a wrong decision, can you stop talking nonsense and disturb the morale of the army in the future?" ”
"Presumptuous!" Wei Ling's face couldn't hold back, and he stood up rubbly: "The general is still the leader here, you hairy boy actually dare to make a mistake?!" ”
"It's because of General Wei that so many brothers died innocently, and then under your command, I, Su Lijiu, just don't accept it!" Su Lijiu said sharply, although Wei Ling is higher than his official rank, but Su Lijiu is different from ordinary people, he has developed this kind of temperament, and he is unceremonious.
"You!" Wei Ling gritted his teeth and stared at him: "In the army, if you commit the following crimes, you can be dealt with for the crime of treason!" ”
Su Lijiu stood up with a smile: "You try!" ”
"You really think I wouldn't dare!" Wei Ling drew his sword as he spoke, and the soldiers next to him hurriedly stopped: "The general is angry!" ”
Wei Ling glared at a few people: "What?!" Even you are towards him? Is it the other way around?! ”
"The subordinates don't dare!"
Wei Ling snorted: "Then listen to my orders and tie up Su Lijiu!" Wait for the barracks to fall! ”
"Who dares?!" Su Lijiu squinted: "If you still want to follow this foolish general, you will send your life to death!" If you really want to rush out, you'll have to shut up this fool! Tie him up for me, and when I go back, I'll bear the consequences! ”
At this time, all the soldiers were dumbfounded, swaying left and right and didn't know who to face, the concept of official rank is the most important, but after all, Wei Ling's order is indeed wrong, so that everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak, many people are towards Su Lijiu in their hearts, but let them do not dare to do anything to Wei Ling!
Just when the two were at a stalemate, Wu Zhan wiped the blood on his face, slowly got up, and took down the jade pendant in his arms: "This is what the general gave me before I left!" Seeing this token is like seeing the general himself! Now here, I'm at my command! If anyone violates the order, I will never tolerate it! ”
Su Lijiu took a closer look, smiled suddenly, and put one hand on Wu Zhan's shoulder: "It's still this kid!" See? Keep your eyes open and take a look! Now here the martial arts are the supreme command! General Wei, be careful......"
Wei Lingqi's chest rose and fell, but he didn't dare to say anything, he sat down angrily, and Wu Zhan said in a loud voice: "Don't worry, everyone, there was an ambush before, and the generals sent me to the rescue, and now I won't give up on everyone!" As long as you hold on, you can go back alive! ”
"Yes!" More than 2,000 soldiers immediately cheered up, and the cheers echoed in the valley, making people immediately sweep away the depression and ignite the fighting spirit.
And when they were trapped, a few people who came back to report also ran back: "Open the city gates!" Open the gates! ”
The guards on the castle tower took a closer look: "It's our people!" Open the gates! ”
Yuan An waited in person, and behind him were the nervous Hu Man and Su Jia, and Yuan An took the lead to catch up: "How is it?!" ”
Several soldiers knelt on one knee: "General, General Wu Shen led everyone to highlight the encirclement, but they were chased closely, and they had no choice but to approach the valley between the two mountains, and their subordinates begged the general to send someone to rescue!" ”
Hu Man bit his lip and looked at Yuan An expectantly, Yuan An clenched his fists, Su Lijiu and Wu Zhan, two people who were too important to him, he couldn't give them up, there were too many people in this army who had different intentions for him, he looked back at those people, and he didn't know who to send.
But this thing really can't be delayed, if you are trapped inside, if you don't get in, you will be consumed to death! The more time passes, the more physically exhausted they become, and it will be more difficult to rescue people from the inside!
