Chapter Eighty-Four: The Defeat of the Patriotic Nation

This should have been a fierce fight that was evenly matched and could be called the pinnacle duel, but because the state of one side was too poor, it ended quickly.

The winner has been decided, and there is no turnaround.

Cao Yan's wrist flipped and neatly retracted the sword back into its sheath.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the poor man in front of him who was lying on the ground, obviously wanting to take a big breath, but because of his lung injury, he could only be like a bookkeeper who picked the door, carefully calculating the bottom line of his body's bearing, and barely breathing in a small breath.

The so-called heroic shortness of breath is like that.

defeated the opponent who had been thinking about it for a long time and became the final winner, but Cao Yan still frowned, and the expression on his face couldn't tell whether he was happy, sad, or sentimental and regretful.

Xie Houyin is not dead, he is still alive, in fact, not only did he not suffer any fatal injuries, but even the wounds on his body that were still bleeding were pitiful.

Cao Yan kept his hand on him.

But despite this, his hands and feet were firmly tied with ropes, and he could no longer struggle and hurt people, of course, even if he didn't, he was powerless to resist anymore.

When the manpower is finally exhausted, he has exhausted the strength of his whole body, and now he has difficulty even standing up.

He felt a strong wave of tiredness rush over him, but he still relied on his strong willpower to hold on and not pass out.

He was gasping silently, trying to breathe every breath of air that poured into his body, and now, like a wounded beast, was silently licking* his wounds, and at the same time, he was also watching his surroundings and his enemies.

It's not that he doesn't want to resist, he's just accumulating strength.

But he didn't want to give up anymore, and he wanted to persevere, but he had to admit that he had already lost.

When the battle formation that entrusts them with their lives was broken and their own coach was captured, the others immediately lost the idea of resisting.

There are also nearly 100,000 patriots here, all of whom have taken off their armor, and have thrown all the weapons in their hands on the ground, holding their heads, squatting together, and tens of thousands of blood-draining troops with cold expressions and murderous spirits next to them, riding horses, patrolling back and forth around them, and the whole scene looks extraordinarily spectacular.

The two sides exchanged offense and defense, and won and lost back and forth, in fact, it was just such a short period of time.

From the winner to the loser, it is just a short time of two incense sticks.

Cao Yan retracted his gaze, turned to look to the side, and whispered to his subordinates: "Carry him on a stretcher, send him to heal first, and the rest escort the prisoner and prepare to enter the customs!"

He kept his voice very low, trying not to let superfluous people hear it, and even his eyes no longer had that complicated meaning, because Cao Yan understood that for a true warrior, sympathy was the greatest insult to him.

Xie Houyin, who was sore and weak, saw himself being carried on a stretcher by two soldiers, but there was no way at all, he could only look at the dark clouds above his head and disperse, and the sky was very clean and clear, and said with great bitterness in his mouth: "Why don't you kill me?

After Cao Yan heard this, he immediately turned his head and said in a very sincere tone: "Brother Xie, to be honest, your talent is something that even I admire, come to Japan and the south to be unified, everyone is a family, why bother to divide you and me, Brother Xie still has a good life, we can also go to the atrium and see the real and vast world, why bother to focus on some meaningless questions?"

Xie Houyin was not moved by it at all, but sneered and said: "Heh, if it is me who will unify the country in the future, can you use it for us?"

Yes, there are some things, in fact, as long as you think about it from another position, it is easy to figure it out, Cao Yan is a smart person, of course he also understands this truth, the reason why he said this is just a pity, and he did get Gu Cang's instructions in advance.

Anyone would want to get such a talented and beautiful jade.

Cao Yan gently

He sighed, then looked up and smiled, as natural as if he were talking to an old friend he had known for many years.

"You have to teach Brother Xie that you understand, even if you don't want to be a Liangchen, Da Liang won't do anything to you, and when Brother Xie takes care of your body, you can return to Weidi soon. ”

When Xie Houyin heard this, he fell silent for a moment.

He knew that the other party meant that he didn't want him to commit suicide, as for the truth or falsehood of the sentence itself, it didn't matter, at least to him, it didn't matter, although at that moment, his mind did recall his family.

After all, who wouldn't want to live if they could?

After a while, he finally took a breath and said in a deep voice: "You and I are both soldiers, so you should know what is the most important thing for us, Xu Guo in this life, there are no two hearts, not to mention that I don't think you have won, as long as our army retreats to Qilian Mountain, you still can't attack." ”

Cao Yan didn't want to say much, after all, at this time, there was really no need to stimulate the other party, so he just waved his hand, turned his head and said, "Then Brother Xie will wait and see, let's go!"

As soon as he gave the order, he began to accompany the army, escorting twice as many captives as he had into the customs.

Although there are not many people who take care of themselves, but no one dares to resist or run away halfway, they are really afraid of being killed just now, they only think that these guys are not people at all, but heavenly soldiers!

In the battle just now, in just such a short period of time, the other side not only broke through the iron bucket array that they were proud of, but also slaughtered more than 5,000 people, but their own casualties were only a handful of them.

------

In the large camp in the rear of the Guards.

Wei Chi Dan, who was ambushed by the bloody army with amazing combat power, had no fighting spirit, and fled back directly in disgrace, did not dare to delay, and broke into the king's tent with a rolling belt, and hurriedly reported everything to Duanmu Shuofeng.

"Bang!"

received defeats from the two fronts one after another, and even Xie Houyin, the commander who had high hopes for himself and wanted to dominate the world, was captured, he really couldn't keep his spirit, and suddenly crushed the putter in his hand that was used to make sand table deduction.

The sawdust on his hand was all pierced into the palm of his hand, but he didn't realize it, his complexion changed several times, and for a moment he was confused, as if he didn't believe that all this had really happened, and he would be completely unacceptable for a while, and then he would become very hideous, obviously extremely angry.

Wu Heng, who has always stood by his side and has also suffered repeated blows, is no better than him.

From him Wu Heng came from the atrium to the south, and the road was not smooth.

first met by chance in Qilian City, and then naturally became Duanmu Shuofeng's confidant and adviser, and smoothly helped him sit on the dragon chair, and then relied on his own mouth, joined forces vertically and horizontally, provoked civil strife in Liang, and then contacted the allies of the Quartet, carved up the Liang Kingdom, and then dominated the great prospect of dominating the southern land in front of him, how could he not be surprised?

Thinking that his sixth junior brother, who had the audacity to come to the same place as him, obviously chose the more powerful Liang Kingdom, but he was restrained by him everywhere and had no power to fight back, how could he not be proud?

After the official start of the war, the coalition army led by him went all the way south, but in half a month, he took a state, and there was no one to stop him on the way, how could he not think that the southern land was already in his pocket?

I didn't expect him to calculate and calculate, but he planted such a big heel today.

Lost?

It seems to be a loss.

Duanmu Shuofeng is desperate, in fact, he is even more desperate than Duanmu Shuofeng.

Because all this has happened, it is irreparable, and he has no time to plan again, thinking that his senior brothers who stayed in the atrium are already higher than his starting point, and now he is still planting in this small pond in the southland, so how can he catch up with others?

His road seems to be about to be finished as soon as he leaves the mountain.

Is it the hand of the sixth man, it doesn't seem to be at all, according to his intelligence, that

The fool stays in a small county town, makes a dojo in a snail shell, and never moves the nest, and it is impossible to block his way, so in other words, he was defeated by an ordinary person?

How is it possible, how can he accept it, looking at the thousands of years of inheritance of the Ming Society, they claim to be a group of people who set things right and act for the heavens, they use heaven and earth as a chessboard, and all beings as chess pieces, what a heroism, starting from their interference in the internal affairs of the human race, the chief advisers of the lord of each generation of the atrium are all from their Illuminati, and as one of them, he lost to a group of ordinary people in the south?

"First, sir, what now?"

At this moment, Duanmu Shuofeng suddenly turned his head to look at him, and a word pulled him back from his chaotic thoughts.

Wu Heng subconsciously turned his head, and his face suddenly changed again, because he had never seen such a Duanmu Shuofeng.

Confused, helpless, and even in the depths of his eyes, there is a trace of fear!

What kind of person is Duanmu Shuofeng, he is the male lord of the southern land personally selected by Wu Heng, he is a mighty and domineering lion, and he is a natural king, even if it is Wu Heng, a minister who does his best to assist him, he is still a courtier, and he has always been a monarch in front of his courtiers, where can there be such a panicked gaffe, let alone use this tone to ask him this kind of question.

His heart is in turmoil!

Duanmu Shuofeng messed up his mind, but he Wu Heng couldn't mess up, thinking of this, he straightened his mind a little, and forcibly suppressed his chaotic thoughts, in the end, he has been getting along for so long, and there is some friendship between kings and ministers, not to mention that if he gives up now, it will be tantamount to admitting defeat, but if he tries harder, maybe there will be a chance to fight!

"Gather your troops, let's go back to Qilian City first!"

At the end, Wu Heng hurriedly added: "Be quick!"

Yes, they have to be fast, because the enemy is cavalry, they are infantry, and if they are not in a hurry, they will be bitten to the death!

However, fortunately, the pursuit ability of the heavy cavalry is not good, if they can gather their forces as soon as possible, and quickly flee back to Qilian City, relying on the dangerous location of Qilian Mountain, as long as they hold it, then there is still a plan!

Duanmu Shuofeng also woke up at this time, he stepped forward in a few steps, and directly kicked over the trembling Wei Chi Dun, who was kneeling on the ground, pointed at the other party's nose, and scolded angrily: "Don't hurry up yet!"

"That's right, that's right!" Wu Heng immediately said again, "Send someone to contact a few other people first, we can't mess up, we must not mess up!"

Duanmu Shuofeng still had an opinion at this time, and hurriedly echoed: "What Mr. said is very true, come here, come here! Hurry up and contact a few other people first!"

With his order, the originally quiet camp was suddenly busy, Wu Heng let out a breath of turbidity, staggered back to the front of a chair, his legs were weak, and he sat down first.

He was thinking, what link was the problem, why did the people of Liangguo deliberately retain their strength and give up Yanzhou, is it possible to invite you into the urn today?

Or is it deliberately showing weakness, just to cause them to be suspicious of each other, so that they can be defeated by each of the Liang countries?

Damn, Wu Heng couldn't help but hammer his thigh hard, angrily scolding himself for being so unbearable, and being so flustered!

He was a little irritable, it would be good if he could contact the rest of the parties at this time, he didn't believe that the people of Liangguo could survive this catastrophe, because he had calculated the strength of Liangguo, even if Yanzhou was clumsy, but Youzhou rebelled, and the people of Shu were also marching with him, even if they pacified the rebellion in the three places, they couldn't withstand this million army!

Now the most important thing is that they have to retreat first, avoid this whirlpool, and must not be entangled by the main force of the Liangguo people, it is best to let them know that they can't catch up, and instead go to withstand the pressure of Youzhou, so that they can come back at any time and continue to eat meat!

Thinking of this, he quickly picked up the pen from the table next to him, dipped it in ink, picked up the pen and began to write.

He wants to release the news here, and he wants to force a few other people to hurry up, and he can't say it, he has to hurry up and go in person!
