Chapter 512: People's Hearts Float (5)

Thousands of miles away in the northern frontier.

A weary army is fleeing in disarray.

Poof, poof, poof, three horses in a row fell, and the man on horseback rolled to the ground.

The team finally came to a halt.

Xie Xun jumped off the horse, walked to the three war horses, and sighed lightly.

Three more horses were tired!

Ever since he came to Beijiang with 5,000 men nine days ago and diverted Beirong's 100,000-strong army from Beiyi Town, they have been fighting and fleeing incessantly.

From the northern Xinjiang to the snow country of Hali, Xie Xun has never fought such an embarrassing battle.

The number of people who followed him decreased little by little, and the horses died of exhaustion one after another in the day and night run. He didn't even dare to count how many people were still with him?

"Lord Shizi, it's been nine days, why haven't the reinforcements come yet?" Jiuwan asked with red eyes.

Xie Sanye, who was stationed in Beiyi Town, should organize a counterattack after the reinforcements arrived to relieve the pressure on Xie Xun's side.

"Could it be that reinforcements didn't come?" A bowl frowned and looked south.

Xie Xun sighed, "It should be something happened in Shudi." ”

"Rest in place for half an hour."

When the horse is tired, the person is even more tired and must rest for a while.

As soon as he announced his rest, everyone collapsed on the ground, and a few even snored.

couldn't bear it anymore, Xie Xun still counted the number of people in the end.

One hundred and twenty-eight!

Five thousand people came, and only one hundred and twenty-eight remained!

"We can't go on like this." Xie Xun rubbed his stiff cheeks that were stiffened by the cold wind.

In order to march quickly, they brought very little dry food. He had seen bags of dry food, and even if he saved it, it would only be enough for three days at most. The enemy pursued almost by tail, they did not dare to make a fire, and there was no way to cook horse meat. Besides, these war horses have accompanied them from birth to death, and the soldiers are reluctant to eat them.

It's been nine days, and there is still no movement in the east, and something must have happened to the reinforcements in Shudi!

The remaining more than 100 people, even if they bury their lives here, it won't be long in coming.

We must find a way to get more people out of this battlefield alive!

North a town.

Tian Qing cried bitterly, "I'm sorry Xie Shizi!" ”

The eight-foot-tall iron-blooded general cried like a child who had done something wrong.

Ever since the eagle letter was sent, he had been waiting in Jiuquan for reinforcements from Shu. finally survived until the fifth day, but I didn't even see the shadow of a Shu soldier. Another day passed, and the lieutenant under his command received an eagle letter.

This deputy general has some power in the Shudi family, and he keeps carrier pigeons and eagles at home.

Tian Dagongzi began to order troops as soon as he received Tian Qingying's letter, and recruited more than 10,000 people to make up enough for Tian Qingying. The night before leaving for Jiuquan, Yizhou invited Tian Dagongzi to drink, saying that it was for Tian Dagongzi's practice.

Du Hu is also an official in charge of the army, and Tian Da Gongzi went to the Du Hu Mansion in order to go north smoothly. Didn't return all night. Early the next morning, Yizhou Duhu and Yizhou Taishou led troops to surround the Chengyi Marquis Mansion, charged: privately transferring troops, intending to rebel!

The adjutant general's family risked a lot of disapproval to send the eagle letter to the adjutant general.

Tian Qing ran away in place.

"Master Hou, I'm afraid it was instructed by the people in the capital."

With the prestige and status of the Marquis of Chengyi in Shu, Yizhou Duhu and Taishou have always only had the share of greeting, where do they dare to lead troops to besiege the government?

The only explanation is that they have more powerful people to back them up!

Tian Qing is not worried about his family. The Chengyi Marquis Mansion has a very high prestige in Shudi, with the support and support of the people, and there are many guards and organs in the mansion, so there is no major incident.

"The reinforcements are gone, what should Xie Shizi do? What to do in the North Town? Tian Qing rushed up with a mouthful of old blood and almost fainted.

"No, even if there are no reinforcements, Lao Tzu must go to Beiyi Town. It's a big deal, Lao Tzu will pay this life to Xie Shizi! ”

Tian Qing roared angrily, and immediately ordered the remaining Shu soldiers who were willing to fight and rushed to the northern frontier.

Knowing that Xie Xun and the others had dragged the Northern Barbarian for nine days, Tian Qing's eyes were scarlet.

Nine days, I'm afraid that all the people under Xie Xun will die, right?

"Damn, Lao Tzu will order troops to fight the Rong people, so as to relieve some pressure on Xie Shizi!" Tian Qing grabbed the dirty bun twice.

"Even if you want to go. I should go too. Xie Sanye grabbed Tian Qing's arm, looked at the darkening sky outside the city, and sighed lightly, "Too many people have died in this land in Northern Xinjiang, and more will die next." Xun'er's side should already be at the end of the crossbow, and it won't last long. Tonight, the last of the people will be evacuated. The safety of those people will be handed over to Master Hou! ”

Tian Qing was about to refuse, wanting to say, "Lao Tzu is here to fight!" But I heard Xie Sanye say again, "Most of those people are the families of the Xie family." Their father, brother, and son can't leave with them alive, so please let Master Hou send them to a safe place. ”

Tian Qing's refusal was stuck in his throat like this.

Xie's uncle and nephew are actually a virtue!

If it weren't for that, how could he bring the Shu army, which had already been beaten to the ground, and only a few thousand people left, to come to the north to support?

"This is the day that will destroy my Great Cloud Dynasty, not a crime of war!" Tian Qing looked up to the sky and roared.

When night fell, Xie Sanye ordered a thousand people to go out from the West City Gate. These people were either his own soldiers or the secret guards of the Zhenguo Mansion.

Tian Qing patted the horse to see him off, with tears in his eyes, "You must save Xie Shizi back!" ”

Such young people who serve the country and the people should not die young!

Xie Sanye only bowed his head slightly, and then beat the horse away.

Although he has been planning for a long time, he may not be able to succeed in this battle.

It's been mopping the floor for too long, and Xun'er is afraid that there won't be a few people left......

"Lord Shizi, the enemy is catching up again!" Jiuwan grabbed the reins of the horse, drew his sword and crossed in front of him, "The subordinates lead people to the back." ”

"Nope." Xie Xun let out a long sigh and stopped.

"This time, we're splitting up."

Xie Xun pointed to the Gobi land to the south, "One bowl, nine bowls, you lead people to abandon horses." The wind and sand will soon wipe out your footprints. ”

A bowl frowned and asked, "What about you?" ”

"I'll continue west." Xie Xun nodded on the sheepskin map, "Not far to the west, there is Yangshan, which is suitable for ambushing." ”

"No way!" One bowl and nine bowls speak in unison.

"The subordinates ask for an ambush to the west!" The two spoke in unison again.

Xie Xun shook his head, "What the Rong people want to arrest is this son." Instead of luring the enemy, you gave your lives in vain. ”

One bowl and nine bowls had to raise objections, but Xie Xun glared at them. Since he has been a marshal these days, his eyes have cultivated the majesty of a general.

"Don't fight with this son anymore. This son is the commander, and you just do what you are told. Whoever dares to disobey will be subject to military law! ”

"Miss Ben is not a soldier under your command, Miss Ben doesn't need to listen to your orders." Si Wenjing walked out of the queue with her right hand on her waist, "Miss Ben will follow you from the west and kill the northern barbarians!" ”

"No way!" Xie Xun's tone was never more stern, "Life and death are at stake, and you can't be allowed to mess around." Don't play the trick of crying, making trouble and hanging yourself with this son again, the enemy is about to catch up, and this son has no time to waste it with you. If you really want to be righteous, you will return to Jiuquan alive for this son, go to Luoyang, and kill all the bastards who killed this son! ”

Si Wenjing's silver teeth were sharpened fiercely, and her eyes were bloodshot, "Okay, Miss Ben promises you." Go back to Luoyang, kill all those bastards, and avenge you! ”

This girl can't be persuaded by gentle words, only hatred can make her give up and die together. Just like Yu Miao's stubborn girl. In the end, he did not let him go to the battlefield with him, but when he was in Beiliu Town, he knocked him unconscious and placed him in a farming family.

That stubborn girl should have lost her temper when she woke up and found that he had left, right?

It's better to be angry than to lose your life. She is still so young and has a good life, there is no need to die with him......
