Chapter 181: Soldiers Coming to the City
Lao Song's face was pale at this time, and he looked like he had already reached the point where he had run out of oil and dried up. After saying this, Lao Song rolled his eyes and fainted.
Chen Yan was startled, anxious, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to probe Lao Song's pulse. At the tentacle, I only felt that Lao Song's pulse was warm and soft, if there was nothing, it could be seen that Lao Song was really on the verge of life and death at this time!
Chen Yan didn't dare to slack off, his true qi slowly spit out, and threw it towards Lao Song, who was as shriveled as dead wood at this time, and his body was covered with blood, and he couldn't tell where he was injured.
When Chen Yan saw that Lao Song's face had turned a little, he hurriedly called his subordinates and sent Lao Song into Chang'an City and his own house.
It didn't take long for Chen Yan's house to be full of people. Xu Rong, Huang Zhong, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia, without exception, were all present, and they all gathered outside the room where Lao Song was, discussing the news brought by Lao Song.
"He said that the Xiliang soldiers are here." Huang Zhong said, "It looks like we're going to fight again!" The old general seemed to be a little eager to try at this time.
"Alas...... This old Song doesn't know where to flee from, looking at this injury, I'm afraid it broke through! Xu Rong sighed and said, as if he felt sorry for Lao Song in his heart.
Jia Xu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "Since Lao Song rushed back to report the news, I'm afraid that the Xiliang soldiers have arrived not far away." Now that Yang Feng has left Dingyuan Stone City, there are only a few useless generals left, and Xu Huang and Zhang Xiu's injuries may not be healed...... This ......"
Speaking of this, Guo Jia also frowned, and said continuously: "The situation is critical, the situation is critical." ”
At this time, in the room, Lao Song was lying on the bed, his body had just been bandaged by Lang Zhong, Chen Yan was still a pair of fleshy palms to convey true qi, and the true qi flowed slowly, Lao Song suddenly exhaled and opened his eyes.
"Old Song!" Chen Yan was overjoyed, grabbed Lao Song's hand tightly, and said, "You guy is really a lucky general, he has been injured so many wounds, and he is still alive!" ”
"Water...... Chief, give me some water......" Old Song hissed and pleaded with his lips pale.
Chen Yan didn't say a word, took the water from Cai Yan on the side, and came to feed Lao Song in person, Lao Song sat up, opened his mouth, and drank water lifelessly.
"Ahem! Ahem! Lao Song was halfway through his drinking, but he was already choking, and Chen Yan hurriedly said: "Drink slowly, don't choke." ”
Lao Song glanced at Chen Yan, suddenly grinned, and said, "It's good, it's good, I thought I wouldn't see you, it's so good......"
Chen Yan thought that Lao Song had just come back from the Ghost Gate, and his heart was even more infinite, so he immediately patted Lao Song's leg and said, "You, what's the matter?" Why have you been missing for so long, tell me about it. ”
Lao Song put down the teacup, wiped his mouth, and said, "Hey, it's a long story, everything starts with that messenger from Lu Bu......"
……
The story blinks to the time when Song Zhong went to pursue Lu Bu's messenger......
The yellow sand is rolling, all in front of him is a desert, and he has already left Yangguan in the west, Song Zhong raised his eyes, but he couldn't see the shadow of Lu Bu's messenger at all.
"This damn it," Lao Song complained in a low voice, "Where can I catch up with ......" Thinking of this, Lao Song couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
At this moment, the entourage behind Lao Song also followed, the desert was long, and the faces of the brothers were full of tiredness and helplessness.
Lao Song looked at the two of the most shrewd among them and said, "Quick, you two go back to Dingyuan City and tell Jia Xu's military division, saying that we can't catch up with Lu Bu's messenger, I'm afraid that the people of Xiliang will learn the news of our attack on Chang'an in a few days and come to support Lu Bu!" ”
The two attendants were the most shrewd, and nodded away without saying a word. The two war horses became two small black dots between heaven and earth in the blink of an eye in the desert, and after that, these two small black dots had disappeared......
"Alas...... I think we'd better wait and see," Old Song said as he followed the remaining four or five followers, "what if this messenger is left behind by us?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes...... Let's wait. ”
"It's all right."
The retinue immediately followed suit.
Song Zhong nodded, looked at the increasingly empty water bladder on the horse's back, but sighed secretly in his heart. In this desert, if you are not careful, you will lose your life.
Time passed gradually, and it was evening in the blink of an eye. Song Zhong lit the bonfire, took out the dry food, and watched the bright moon on the horizon gilding the desert with silver, which was also very pleasant.
Suddenly, a spectacular sound sounded on the desert, and this sound gradually deafened from far and near......
Lao Song threw down the dry food, stood up, and said, "Listen! Listen! ”
Several entourages also stood up with Lao Song, and looked into the distance together, looking in the direction where the voice came from.
I saw the dust flying, although it was night, but I could also see that an army was approaching in the distance, Song Zhong saw it in his eyes, but he secretly felt bad in his heart. In this cold night, it was probably none other than Lu Bu's reinforcements who were marching in such a hurry.
"Are the Xiliang soldiers here?" Old Song muttered to himself, but this muttering was heard by his subordinates.
Several entourages were in a state of confusion all of a sudden, and they exclaimed repeatedly: "The Xiliang soldiers are here!" Xiliang soldiers are here! Han Sui is here! Ma Teng is here! ”
Although there were only a few people, Song Zhong's troops were in chaos in an instant.
Lao Song hurriedly extinguished the campfire, turned over his horse, and said, "Don't panic, let's run!" Come on! ”
Although those entourages were inexperienced, no one was stupid, and without saying a word, they also followed Lao Song to turn over and get on their horses and gallop towards the distance.
Dozens of miles to the east, there is Dingyuan Stone City, where they not only have water and food, but also high city walls and powerful troops.
If you go further east, it will be Chang'an City, and when you arrive in Chang'an City, there will be Chen Yan who they trust.
However, these dozens of miles of road seem so far away. Hearing a whistling sound behind him, Lao Song's heart was cold, knowing that his troops had been discovered......
Although there are only a few people, these few people are tantamount to a few black spots exposed on a white paper on this vast and unsheltered wilderness......
Song Zhong had never been so afraid, nor had he been so eager to escape. He only remembered that at the last moment, the group of Xiliang soldiers caught up from behind like a tide, and then their eyes were full of the brown and black clothes of the Xiliang soldiers, as well as their boundless scimitars and spears......
As for how he escaped, Lao Song really forgot, he only knew that the brothers who were with him were all dead, and at the last moment, the Xiliang soldiers gave up on Lao Song and turned to the direction of Dingyuan City......
……
Speaking of this, Chen Yan suddenly had a stirring spirit and asked, "Wait, you said that the Xiliang soldiers have all gone to Dingyuan City?" ”
Lao Song's eyes showed a burst of regret, and he said, "Yes......"
Chen Yan stood up suddenly, pushed open the door, and shouted, "Two generals, two military advisors, come in quickly!" ”
