Now, the banner of the New Red Army has also been lost, the military appearance is also chaotic, the soldiers are all gray-faced, and the armor on their bodies is also full of blood and dirt, and they have lost their luster, if they don't shout, Ling Wuya and Zhang Bufan may not be able to recognize them as their own people.

Song Hao, who heard the news, was very excited, and rushed over at a trot, and before he got out of the crowd of his own soldiers, he had already pulled his neck and shouted, and asked, "Who is the general in front?"

Ling Wuya didn't see this monarch, but when he heard someone ask, he shook off the blood stains on the long knife, and still replied to the crowd: "I am the general of the Jin Kingdom, Ling Wuya!"

Oops! As soon as he heard Ling Wuya's words, Song Hao's nose was sour, and tears fell involuntarily.

They had never thought that Ling Wuya's name was so affectionate before, and the monarch stretched out his hand and shouted as he squeezed out with a crying voice, "General Ling, save me!"

Ling Wuya sat on the horse, stretched his neck to take a closer look, and almost laughed out loud, now Song Hao is miserable enough, his face is black and white, and he doesn't know if he hasn't washed his face for a few days, his eyes are black, his eye sockets are deep, and his royal clothes are even more miserable, I don't know how many places are damaged, the big hole and small eyes, unkempt, staggering, and his appearance is similar to the name of the flower child who asks for food, where is there still a little bit of the majesty of the monarch?

It seems that the New Red Army was forced by You Jun to be really miserable, otherwise Song Hao, who paid so much attention to his appearance, would not have fallen to such a point.

Ling Wuya secretly shook his head and sighed, he held his sword on the horse and arched his hand, and said, "It turned out to be His Royal Highness the New Red King, please forgive the last general with armor on his body." You can't get off the horse and give salutes. ”

Song Hao finally squeezed out of the crowd of the New Red Army with great effort. He raised his hands and tugged at the reins of his horse. He said in a loud voice: "General Ling, you are here!

Ling Wuya's courage is big, but it is not so big that he takes a prince to kill back to the encirclement of the You army, the sword and gun have no eyes, in case there are three long and two short, how can he explain to the new red country.

He tugged on the reins, trying to break Song Hao's hand away. But Song Hao grabbed it to the death, and he didn't let go.

Ling Wuya was helpless, and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, don't be impatient. The Jin army has surrounded the You Legion, and His Highness can only wait here for good news. Now, the last general will turn back and charge the enemy again!"

The implication is that they want to let go quickly. Don't delay him in killing the enemy.

But as soon as Song Hao heard that Ling Wuya was leaving. He grasped the reins tighter, and said in unison: "Don't go, general!

He grabbed Ling Wuya and didn't let go, if Ling Wuya stayed to protect the two of them, if he was someone else, he would have kicked him out a long time ago, but the one in front of him was the king of a country, Ling Wuya couldn't look down on him anymore, and he had to be afraid of three points.

I can't help it anymore because of the two of them. Ling Wuya had no choice but to dismount and turn back and order the Golden Cavalry. All obeyed Zhang Bufan's command and followed Zhang Bufan to continue to charge and kill the enemy.

Zhang Bufan can also see now that Song Hao is like a frightened bird, grasping Ling Wuya's life-saving straw, it is impossible to let him go again.

Seeing that Ling Wuya, who was so arrogant, was also helpless by Song Hao at this time, Zhang Bufan laughed secretly in his heart, shouted an order, and took the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom to fight back to the enemy formation.

Seeing that the cavalry of the Jin Army had killed again, and the New Red Army was standing motionless like wooden stakes, Ling Wuya's nose was almost crooked, he turned around and shouted loudly: "What are you still doing standing here? If you don't break through at this time, are you still waiting for the You Army to come and besiege you?"

A sentence woke up the person in the dream, and even Song Hao nodded again and again in a sudden realization. If You Jun is really anxious by the Jin Army outside, he is likely to give up the periphery and come to the New Red Army to fight for his life, and fight to the end.

Under Ling Wuya's reminder, the New Red Army followed behind the Jin State cavalry and began to rush into the You Army's camp.

The current battlefield is more than a gibberish. The periphery is being fought, and the internal is also being fought, and the situation is already precarious.

The arrival of reinforcements is equivalent to a shot in the arm for the soldiers of the New Red Army, and the 200,000 remnants of the army, who had already been exhausted, did not know where to burst out of vitality at this time, followed the cavalry of the Jin State, and fought a bloody way in the camp of the You army, and forcibly broke through.

When the new Red Army was all out of trouble, for the Jin army, there were no more people in the You army, and there was no need to worry about attacking, so the two armies set up stone throwers on the periphery and smashed the You army camp.

There was a stone thrower outside, and there was a fierce attack by the Jin army inside, and the You army, which had already been in chaos, was no longer able to support it, and it was defeated inward.

Now there was a sudden change of form on the battlefield, the Jin army occupied the position that originally belonged to the You army, and the You army retreated to the position that originally belonged to the new Red Army.

Even the strength of both sides was roughly the same as it was then, and now the You army has only more than 200,000 dead and wounded, while the Jin army plus the New Red Army is close to 400,000.

At this point in the battle, the Jin army has firmly controlled the situation on the battlefield, and the same as the original choice of the You army, the Jin army did not keep attacking, but also chose to be trapped, intending to trap the You army in their own encirclement.

As the so-called 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, the tactics of the You Army besieging the New Red Army were copied exactly the same by the Jin Army at this time.

Outside the battlefield, Lin Haotian saw Song Hao, who had not been seen for a long time.

Seeing Lin Haotian at this time, Song Hao hurriedly stepped forward as if he had seen a relative, and took Lin Haotian's hand, without waiting for him to speak, Song Hao was already in tears like rain, crying silently.

He thought that he was dead this time, and even wrote the suicide note that designated the candidate for the throne, who knew that the wind and clouds suddenly changed, and the Jin army fell from the sky, and at the most critical moment, the danger of the new Red Army was solved, which made Song Hao experience the feeling of the rest of his life after the catastrophe for the first time.

Song Hao's gratitude to Lin Haotian who sent charcoal in the snow was indescribable, and he couldn't say a word of excitement at this time, and his heart was full of emotions, excitement, excitement, humiliation and bitterness.

Lin Haotian could understand his feelings, patted Song Hao's hand, and said: "Brother Song has suffered in the past few days! Since receiving Brother Song's letter, Ben Shuai has been leading the army to Canglin's side. However, the journey was far away, and he was still a few days late, but fortunately, Brother Song was safe and sound. Ben Shuai was relieved. ”

"It's good to come! It's good to come!" Song Hao nodded again and again, raising his arm from time to time and wiping his tears with his cuffs.

"Presumably Brother Song is hungry, right? Ben Shuai has already prepared wine and food, and it will be delivered later. "Now, even if you give Song Hao stars and the moon, it can't compare to giving him a sumptuous banquet for the two of them.

Sure enough, after hearing Lin Haotian say that he had prepared the wine and food, Song Hao felt hungry. The temples of the five internal organs are churning.

The two of them did not express their gratitude to Lin Haotian in detail, and said that on the battlefield, the soldiers of the Jin Army had begun to loudly persuade the trapped 200,000 You troops to surrender.

In Chen Bo's dictionary. There was never a word for surrender. He forcibly suppressed the anger in his chest, and ordered the whole army not to ignore the persuasion of the Jin army to surrender, if the other party did not take the initiative to attack. Don't act rashly either. The whole army recuperates, waits until evening, and then goes all out to break through.

If the encirclement of the New Red Army by the You Army is an iron bucket formation, then the current encirclement of the You Army by the Jin Army is an iron plate formation.

The soldiers who are arranged in the innermost part and have direct contact with the You Army are all Jin Jun.

Lin Haotian made such an arrangement, but he also didn't trust the combat effectiveness of the New Red Army, and was afraid that the New Red Army would give You Army a chance to break through.

Behind the Jin army are the large weapons of the Jin army, among which the stone thrower and the arrow tower are the mainstay. Looking further back, it is the camp of the new Red Army.

Although the New Red Army did not have direct contact with the You Army. But Lin Haotian did not let the New Red Army idle, digging trenches and building soil enclosures, and building a second line of defense behind the Jin Army, which was also a double insurance.

If the You army wants to break through to the outside, it must not only withstand the smashing and shooting of stone throwers and arrow towers, but also have to break through the defense line of the Jin army, and then face the new Red Army that has completed the fortifications, which can be described as even more difficult.

That night, under Chen Bo's order, 200,000 You troops broke through.

This battle was extremely difficult for the You army, the shield array arranged by the Jin army on the periphery was like a layer of iron armor, blocking countless You troops, and the crossbow arrows shot out of the shield array were like raindrops, plus the stone projectiles thrown by the stone thrower and the arrow array shot down on the arrow tower, all of which caused great damage to the You army.

Often the You army in front desperately rushed away from the shield array of the Jin army, but when he looked back, there was no one behind him, and the soldiers in the rear were all shot back by the stone bullets and arrows falling from the sky.

In the end, Chen Bo also saw that his side had no strength and possibility to break out, so he could only reluctantly give up the breakthrough and defend in place.

They didn't attack, the Jin army also sought to fight, and the two sides were in a state of confrontation, but the food and grass of the You army were limited after all, and they and the Jin army couldn't afford it.

Within three days, the tragic situation of the new Red Army was transferred to the current You Army, with water and food shortages, and a surge in sickness.

By the time the two sides confronted each other on the fifth day, the tragic situation of cannibalism had begun to appear within the You army, and due to hunger, wounds, and diseases, nearly half of the officers and men of the whole army had lost their combat effectiveness, and the situation of the You army was on the verge of collapse.

At this time, Lin Haotian saw that he had almost trapped You Jun, and offered to meet Chen Bo.

Chen Bo didn't refuse, he also wanted to see what his intentions were at this time.

Under the protection of their respective generals, the two met in the central clearing of both camps.

Chen Boqi is not good-looking, he is a dark and thin middle-aged man, but his background is unusual, he is the son of Chen Yang, the former general of You State, the son inherited his father's title, and is now a dignified Marquis of Guoxing.

Lin Haotian looked at Chen Bo, and seeing that the other party didn't mean to speak, he took the initiative to laugh and said, "General Chen, it's been a long time!"

"If General Lin has something to say, just say it!" Chen Bo didn't bother to say hello, and said straight to the point.

"Hehe, General Chen is so refreshing. Lin Haotian said with a smile: "This time this marshal made an appointment with General Chen, and there was only one purpose, which was to show General Chen a clear way. ”

Chen Bo raised his eyebrows, stared at Lin Haotian, and asked, "General Lin wants to show me a clear way?"

"That's right!" Lin Haotian nodded, restrained his smile, and said seriously: "General Chen should be very clear by now, you and your subordinates are already unable to fly, and if you do a battle of trapped beasts, it will only be a dead end, and you can't change the overall situation, instead of sacrificing in vain and being a martyr for the courtiers and thieves, it is better to abandon the darkness and turn to the light and support justice!"

"Haha......" Chen Bo seemed to have heard a joke, and he couldn't stop laughing on his back. After a long while, he suppressed his laughter and asked, "Is this what General Lin called Minglu?" Then there's nothing more to talk about between us......"

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Haotian suddenly changed his words and muttered: "I have always heard that General Chen is a rare good general who is compassionate to the soldiers and loves his soldiers like a son in Youguo, and I can see him today, but that's it!"

These words made Chen Bo's face sink suddenly, and he glared at him coldly, waiting for him to continue.

Lin Haotian continued: "Nie Xing is a big rebel. Self-establishment as a king is against the mandate of heaven and humanity. The people of the world are cruel not to eat their flesh and swallow their bones. Now to be loyal to such pigs and dogs who are inferior to them is undoubtedly foolish loyalty! General Chen is dying for the prestige and survival of his family. Even if you know it's wrong. It is understandable that you insist on making mistakes and are willing to make funeral offerings, but you shouldn't pull in more than 200,000 soldiers and let them accompany you to make funeral offerings, don't you think General Chen is too selfish, and I'm too sorry for entrusting your life to the soldiers who entrust your life. ”

He said this. said that Chen Bo's face was red and white for a while. Speechless for a long time.

The reason why he was willing to come to meet Lin Haotian was that he wanted to see the other party's intentions, and secondly, he wanted to fight for a way out for his brothers. Of course, the price of this way of life is by no means disarming and surrendering.

After pondering for a long time, Chen Bofang opened his mouth and said: "As the saying goes, one person is desperate, and three people are invincible! General Lin should know the combat strength of our soldiers and soldiers, and it really forced our brothers to be anxious, although our army will be wiped out, but your losses will not be small. I have a proposal to exchange my head for General Lin's net and let these brothers live. ”

Lin Haotian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and said leisurely: "General Chen overestimates himself too much, your head is not so valuable, and Ben Shuai will not do a stupid thing to let the tiger return to the mountain." ”

Chen Bo's face changed suddenly, and he asked in a deep voice: "Does General Lin really want to see you and me fight to the death......

Lin Haotian was happy, stretched out his hand and pointed at the You Army, and said: "With the current situation of your You Army, I'm afraid you may not be able to hold out for another three days! And with the current combat strength of the You Army, breaking through is even more seeking death." General Chen, you no longer have the capital to negotiate terms with Ben Shuai! Ben Shuai still said the same thing: If you surrender, the whole army will live, and if you resist, the whole army will die! If you want to die or live, General Chen will choose for himself!"

He had already said what he had said, so that Chen Bo could not find the slightest room for maneuver. The latter subconsciously frowned, his face was cloudy, and he was speechless for a long time.

Lin Haotian understood that he was now at the point of war between heaven and man, he squinted his eyes, took two steps forward, and said in a low voice: "But this commander must remind General Chen, your current choice is related to the life and death of more than 200,000 soldiers, they are all innocent, General Chen will not bear to push them into the fire pit, right?"

"Don't say it!" As soon as Lin Haotian's words fell, Chen Bo roared angrily.

Surrender, which was unacceptable in Chen Bo's previous conceptions, was unacceptable in any way, but now, he was a little hesitant.

The invasion of the Four Nations Alliance, in the final analysis, was led by Nie Xing, whether to sacrifice the entire You Kingdom because of the fault of the monarch alone, he had also considered this issue before, but he did not come up with a result. Now, the question is in front of him, whether to continue to be die-hard, or choose to defect to the Jin army and join the camp of overthrowing King You Nie Xing.

After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly asked, "General Lin, there is something I hope Your Highness can tell you the truth." ”

Lin Haotian raised his head and said, "General Chen has something to say, please speak!"

"Does the Vayou Alliance formed by the four countries want to pull the king off the throne, or do they want to work together to destroy and annex the You Kingdom?"

If it is the former, he can barely accept it, and then consider it carefully, but if it is the latter, then he will not have to hesitate anymore, even if he does not fight for the king, he has to fight for the country, even if he dies, he will die as he deserves.

If he asked him like this, how could Lin Haotian not guess what he thought in his heart? If he told him the truth, he would not accept his own surrender even if he was afraid of killing Chen Bo, but if he lied to him, his prestige as the king of a country would be gone.

Thinking about it, Lin Haotian said vaguely and evasively: "Whether to pull Nie Xing down or destroy You Guo, Ben Shuai is not very clear, but there is one thing Ben Shuai can want General Chen to assure, Ben Shuai led the army to attack You, completely out of loyalty to the Son of Heaven, and after the rebellious forces led by Nie Xing collapse, our Jin Kingdom will never ask for or seize half an inch of You Guo's territory." Of course, Ben Shuai can only make such a guarantee to his own country, and as for what the princes of other countries plan, Ben Shuai does not know. ”

Hearing this, Chen Bo's heart suddenly moved, King Jin said this, indicating that he had no intention of dividing You Guo, it sounded that the Four Kingdoms had never discussed dividing and annexing You Guo, so from this point of view, the Four Nations Alliance only wanted to overthrow Nie Xing, not to destroy You Guo.

Jin Guo didn't want to carve up You Guo, which made Chen Bo's heart finally fall a little when he mentioned his throat.

While breathing a sigh of relief, he arched his hand to Lin Haotian, and said with a straight face: "General Lin is the prince of a country, and what he said must be true, as for the surrender, I can consider it, but I have one condition, and I hope General Lin can agree." ”

"Oh?" Lin Haotian raised his eyebrows.

"Actually, it's not an excessive condition, I just hope that after the king abdicates, the four princes can let our crown prince Nie Dan inherit the throne. ”

In Chen Bo's mind, Nie Dan is a hundred times stronger than Nie Xing, first of all, the prince has excellent ability, and secondly, the prince is benevolent and affectionate.

If Nie Dan can succeed to the throne smoothly, You Guo will still have a bright future in the future! (To be continued......)
