Chapter 225: Fallen Leaves Return to the Roots

The Wuping soldier frowned, his restless hands rubbing against his injured leg.

"Do you hear that? I, the deputy capital of the Han Dynasty, Xie Dutong, face to face, if you want to live, you will answer honestly, otherwise you will be taught to fall to the ground! The adjutant shouted.

"The general asks, the villain knows everything, and there is no way to do it if he doesn't know." The soldier whispered.

Xie Gui nodded and said, "Well, what's your name?" ”

"Villain Lu Asan."

"Are you all Li Yuan's soldiers?" Xie Gui said coldly.

The soldier hesitated for a moment, then nodded back, "Yes." ”

Xie Gui said again: "Where are you from?" Was the ambush set up beforehand? ”

The soldier Lu Asan raised his head and said, "Yes, we have been in ambush in the valley for two days, just waiting for you to pass by there." ”

Xie Gui frowned and said, "How do you know our whereabouts?" Did Li Yuan ask you to ambush here? ”

"This villain doesn't know, how do we little soldiers know about the order from above? Anyway, we left Yiyang City four or five days ago, and after entering the mountain, we went straight to ambush, as for why do you know your whereabouts, you ask me, I ask who to go? ”

Sure enough, as expected, Xie Gui frowned and asked, "You mean that you are soldiers of Yiyang City?" Didn't you just say that you were a soldier under Li Yuan? ”

The soldier replied: "Of course we are the soldiers under the Metropolitan Governor, and the soldiers and horses in Chu are all the soldiers and horses under the Metropolitan Governor. We are all the Governor's Wuping Army. ”

Xie Gui was puzzled: "So you didn't go to support Li Yuan, but went directly into the mountain to ambush as soon as you left the city?" ”

Lu Asan said: "Yes, didn't I make it very clear? You know everything, you don't understand or what? We followed Lin Duzhi out of the city, and then set up an ambush and waited for you!

Support the Grand Governor? How can you be our Governor's opponent? No matter how you fight, you will be defeated......"

"Shut up, what the hell are you talking about, looking for death?" The lieutenant flew up and put a foot on Na Lu Asan's chest, Lu Asan was kicked on the heel, lying on the ground and coughing on his chest, his face full of pain.

Xie Gui glared at the deputy general, stepped forward to help Lu Asan up, and said in a deep voice: "Do you really have so much confidence in Li Yuan? Then why did Li Yuan make you respect him so much? ”

Lu Asan raised his head, with blood on the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Our Metropolitan Governor is a general in the sky, how can you be his opponent?" Look at you like this, it seems that the losses suffered under the Metropolitan Governor are still not enough!

I tell you again, that most of us are like gods, and know that you will be defeated, so we have commanded us to set up an ambush here. You are under control at every turn, and every step is in the calculations of the Grand Duke, understand?

I advise you to hurry up and surrender to the Grand Duke, as you will be a rival with him, and sooner or later you will be a dead ......."

Xie Gui frowned, and said in a low voice: "You are not small, are you not afraid of death?" ”

Lu Asan opened his mouth to show his blood-stained teeth and smiled: "I'm afraid of death!" Who is not afraid of death? But what's the use of being afraid? Can you spare us? Besides, we were both badly wounded, and the wound on my leg was bleeding profusely, and I knew I was going to make it to death.

This commander, if you know each other, please give us a good time, and you can also leave a way back for yourself. When you are beheaded by the governor of my house in the coming day, if we meet in the underworld, my brothers and I will not trouble you......

Xie Gui's face turned pale, his teeth rattled, and he slowly stood up and walked to the side.

The adjutant general said in a low voice: "Dutong, what should these people do?" ”

"Throw them all down the cliff!" Xie Gui said coldly.

Dozens of Wuping wounded soldiers were dragged to the cliff one by one and pushed off the cliff one by one, in a terrible scream, Xie Gui stood aside with his brows locked, but his mind was not in front of him, but secretly frightened.

His previous worries were verified, and when he was attacked last night, he had been wondering why the incident happened so coincidentally, and sure enough, the Tang army in Yiyang City had already set up an ambush here. Can this Li Yuan really predict the prophet?

This man was also very confident in his use of soldiers, and he seemed to have expected that his soldiers and horses would be defeated and would pass through the valley, so he arranged this move in advance.

From this point of view, this person really makes people feel terrible, take one step and think three steps, he is indeed played by him, and he is in his calculations from beginning to end. And after last night's sneak attack, he lost more than 3,000 people, and even his own clan brothers were killed, which was really worse.

"Set off immediately, don't stop all the way, and rush back to Chenzhou as soon as possible!"

Xie Gui ordered loudly, he couldn't stay here for a moment longer, every time he stayed longer, he would feel shuddering, and he didn't know what powerful means Li Yuan had waiting for him, so it was better to stay away from Li Yuan as soon as possible.

……

At dusk, the camp of the Wuping army ushered in the ambush soldiers and horses who returned triumphantly. As Nalu Asan explained, this army of soldiers and horses is the soldiers and horses of Wu Ping's personal army who have been guarding Yiyang City for many days. The leader of the army is naturally the chief and deputy commander of the army, and the two favorite generals under Li Yuan - Lin Sichang and Ebony Special Service.

This time, the two of them got on the horse to lead the troops to attack and harass, dismounted and garrisoned the city, and performed extremely well in the battle with the Han army, although 10,000 pro-slaves sacrificed half, which can be said to have paid a huge price, but they successfully dragged the main force of the Han army several times their own under the Yiyang City, and it was difficult to advance an inch, and it was incredible to carry the capital governor Li Yuan from Xizhou back to the division to help.

In fact, when they learned that Li Yuan's army was going south, the two were going to send people out of the city to contact their own governors, but they had no choice but to give up because the Han army was in the middle, and it was not until a few days ago when the Han army was defeated that the two finally looked forward to Li Yuan's order, and Zhu Kuang came to convey from himself that he led the army to the Wuping camp.

Just as he was about to set off, another light cavalry arrived, but the order conveyed this time was to ask Lin Sichang and the Ebony Special Service to lead the army into the mountain and go directly to the valley to set up an ambush......

In less than a moment, Li Yuan urgently changed the military order, which made the two of them and Zhu Kuang all puzzled, but since they followed Li Yuan, they had become accustomed to obeying orders without asking the reason, so they led the army directly to the valley to wait.

As a result, the really big fish was caught and successfully hit the Han army.

Li Yuan led the generals to greet the two victorious generals outside the camp with a smile, and the two generals Lin Wu saw Li Yuan hurriedly rolled off the saddle and immediately leaned forward and saluted.

I saw Li Yuan smile and help the two of them up: "The two generals have worked hard!" These days, your war report has been known to the Governor, and you have not been disappointed! When you return to Langzhou, the governor of Pontus will reward you heavily! ”

Lin Sichang choked up excitedly for a few moments, and then said in a trembling voice in shame: "Thank you to the Grand Governor!" It's just that the last general failed the Metropolitan Governor, and the loss of more than half of the army in this battle is really sad......"

Eighty percent of the Uighur tribes from Tianyin Mountain were in the army, so the leader of the Ebony Special Service was actually the most distressed, and at this time he also bowed his head and wept and blamed himself, and then solemnly clenched his fists and touched his chest, as if to solemnly remember the tribal brothers who died in battle.

I sighed in my heart: "Rest in peace, children! You are all eagles of the steppe! The soul can return to its hometown, and the fallen leaves will eventually return to the roots......"
