"With my uncle's help, I, Li Miao, have an army of 100,000 together!" Li Miao did not hesitate to praise himself.

"The head of the family will definitely be able to revive my Li family, and the lord's spirit in the sky will also be able to rest in peace!" Li Yin also praised Li Miao.

"Wherever and wherever you are, you still need the assistance of a pillar like your uncle. ”

"No, no, you are a natural beauty. ”

Just when the two were about to continue to praise each other, disgusting and dead, an urgent report suddenly came from there and interrupted the two.

"Report, it's not good, it's not good. Your Majesty, the thieves, the thieves are coming!"

"Thieves?" Li Miao's face changed, and the people below were obviously taken aback, what they were most afraid of in this troubled world were two things, one was war, and the other was thieves.

If there is a war in your hometown, you will leave your hometown at most, and if there are thieves in your hometown, one of them will be ruined. The common people were obviously panicking.

Li Miao's heart was also anxious, thieves! He had never encountered it before, how powerful his cheap father was before, not to mention thieves, even some regular soldiers didn't dare to touch his father's things.

And now it's different, the Li group has collapsed, and there are only three hundred soldiers left, and the rest are all old, weak, sick and disabled, who this thief is, how many soldiers and horses there are, and what they want, these Li Miao don't know at all.

"Don't panic, don't panic, aren't you just some little thieves! It's not worth mentioning at all in front of my Zhongguo army, it's good that he doesn't come, he comes, he will definitely not be able to go back!" Just when Li Miao was still in panic, the cheap uncle on the side spoke.

This cheap uncle really has a bit of a role, and his plain appearance reminded Li Miao, not to mention that even if some thieves are attacked, you, as the master of an army, can't have the slightest fear. As soon as you panic, then it will naturally infect the people below, and even you, the lord, are afraid, let alone others.

Li Miao forced himself to calm down, but his body was still shaking, and under the ruthlessness, Li Miao bit his tongue, the smell of blood in his mouth, and the broken wound, which suddenly made Li Miao much fresher.

Li Miao finally calmed down, "Everyone, just a thief, dare to offend my Zhongguo, where is Zhang Xun!" Li Miao's calm expression made the people below feel much more at ease.

"The last general!" Zhang Xun knelt down.

"I'll teach you these thieves, it's noon now, I'll give you three, no, two hours, take down the head of the thief, or I'll ask you!" Li Miao ordered at Zhang Xun.

"The last general will take the order!" Zhang Xun stood up and left, "Come with me!" Half of the three hundred soldiers under his command were taken away.

"Folks, you should all go back, wait for the end of this war, and come to get food!" Li Miao waved his hand to appease the people.

"It's all gone, let's disperse!" Yang Hong over there shouted to the people below.

Soon more than 3,000 people slowly dispersed.

Li Miao endured the pain and hugged his fist at Li Yin on the side, "Uncle Li Yin, thank you." If Li Yin hadn't reminded himself today, if he panicked, maybe this already stable people's hearts would have dispersed again.

"Why does the head of the family need to say more!" Li Yin bowed, he immediately sniffed his nose, the smell of blood? Although Li Miao killed his own subordinates before, he had already changed his clothes, where did the smell of blood come from.

Looking at Xixi again, Li Miao's lips were extremely bright red, and a trace of red on the corners of his mouth stuck to it.

"Your Majesty, you're injured!" Yang Hong over there also found out, and hurriedly stepped forward to worry about Li Miao.

"It's okay, it's just a small injury!" Li Miao had already changed his voice a little when he spoke, he was already about to cry in his heart, in order to calm down, he bit down and bit big, and a gin opened on his tongue, and this blood rushed straight to his throat.

It's not a big problem, but it hurts.

"Chew your tongue and rest assured!?" Li Yin looked at his eldest nephew, this eldest nephew no longer seemed to be the second ancestor he knew before, his tongue was living meat, and the pain was much worse than in other places, but this eldest nephew bit down all at once. Li Yin subconsciously felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with staying in this Jiang Pavilion.

Li Miao, under the leadership of Qin Huai, walked towards the city wall over there.

Saying that it is a city wall is simply a joke, because Jiangting was originally a small county town, if you didn't pass by here, you wouldn't know such a small place, plus he is already broken, you can know that his city wall is all earthen walls, and several city walls have collapsed, there is no difference between having a city wall and not having a city wall.

"Didn't you say that there were thieves? Where are the thieves? What about General Zhang, what do the enemies want to do? Can we fight them?" Li Miao came up with a bunch of questions, so that Zhang Xun didn't know how to answer.

After sorting out his thoughts, Zhang Xun hugged his fists at Li Miao and said, "Your Majesty, I have already sent scouts, they haven't come back yet, this thief is still five miles away from Jiang Ting, and it will take half an hour to get here." ”

Zhang Xun's words made Li Miao blush, in ancient times, there was no radio, no wired telephone telegraph, and no radar could predict the enemy in advance, so it was generally sent out to spread the scout, so that the scouts could meet the enemy, if the scouts were lucky, then they could come back to report the news, and if they were unlucky, they might be silent.

And the scout who came to report just now encountered the enemy ten miles away, so he hurriedly came back to tell him, so that Jiang Tingcheng would be on guard, so that he would not be caught off guard by the enemy, and he did not react at all.

Waiting for the people to disperse, Li Miao went up to the city wall, and only half an hour had passed, Zhang Xun re-released the scouts to visit the enemy in front, and the scouts who had reported the news before didn't have time to see how many enemies there were before they returned.

The sky gradually darkened, and there was no news from the scouts sent out by Zhang Xun for a long time, which made Li Miao and Zhang Xun a little anxious.

"Let's explore!" Zhang Xun said with a gloomy face. If one scout doesn't work, then send out two scouts, and if two scouts can't work, then three or four. You have to know what's going on.

But four scouts were sent out in a row, but there was still no news of anything.

"Explore!" Zhang Xun was about to send the fifth scout, but Li Miao smiled bitterly, "General Zhang Xun, no need." ”

Because beyond the city walls, human heads had already appeared in the dense bushes.

The figure collided, Li Miao glanced at it and couldn't help but gasp, how many thieves are this.

"General Zhang Xun, there are geometric men and horses outside the city?" Li Miao's march to fight was the first time, and it was not clear how many soldiers and horses there were outside the city.

But he heard Zhang Xun say to Li Miao in a calm voice: "Your Majesty, please prepare for your Majesty to withdraw from Jiangting County! There must be at least 10,000 people outside the city." ”

"Ten thousand people?" Li Miao really wanted to cry, don't you want to play with the dead? He only has a total of how many soldiers and horses in the entire Jiangting City, but there are 300 soldiers in battle, even if you add those old and weak women and children are only 3,000, and the enemies outside are tens of thousands, God, don't you play with me. No wonder Zhang Xun asked Li Miao to prepare to withdraw from Jiangting City, even if Jiangting City is intact, it can't withstand the attack of 10,000 people, where is this Nima a thief, who can dispatch 10,000 people at a time, even if the regular army encounters it, it has to avoid the edge.

"Listen, you are surrounded by our army, open the gates, lay down your weapons, and hand over your food!" suddenly appeared among the ten thousand thieves, and a man with torches shouted to the people on the wall.

"Sure enough, it's a thief! I've come to grab grain and grass!" Li Miao said fiercely.

"Qin Huai, you take Your Majesty and leave from the north gate, and I will cut off the rear here!" Zhang Xun said to Li Miao.

"Retreat?" Li Miao's mouth was very bitter, just a little accomplished, this just received Li Yin's heart and calmed the people's hearts, and before he had time to show his ambitions, he was about to be driven away like a lost dog.

"I'm not leaving!" Li Miao said to Zhang Xun fiercely. Don't take such a bully.

"Your Majesty, the enemy is heavy, and we are not opponents. Zhang Xun dissuaded Li Miao, that is, Yang Hong and Li Yin on the side were terrified, an army of 10,000 people, although they had seen such a big battle, and even Zhang Xun and others had not commanded 10,000 soldiers and horses, but now it is different, they are the weak side.

"Let's go! What about the people in the city?" Li Miao asked Yang Hong and the others on the side.

Yang Hong and the others stopped talking, and they left naturally ignoring the people.

Li Miao's conscience was condemned, if he ran away, then the people of this city would be completely finished, but on top of the death of the people of a city and his personal life, it was indeed his personal life that prevailed, but what if he ran away with those grains and grass? They had no preparation at all in advance, you said you should go out and bring some dry food and entanglement. And which door to go to and where to escape, these are all questions that need to be carefully considered.

Li Miao was thinking about the escape route, but was regarded by Huang Yi, the brother-in-law of the pit goods over there, as the people of Li Miao who were reluctant to escape in this city, and didn't want to escape, Huang Yi couldn't help but be anxious, and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, I can only live when I leave." If you stay here, there is only one way to die! Those thieves don't care about your identity, Your Majesty!" Huang Yi, a person who was afraid of death, said to Li Miao, hoping to impress Li Miao with a threat of his life, because he knew that Li Miao was afraid of death. He is telling Li Miao that if you are captured by Cao Cao and these individuals, you can still live for a few more days, and even give you some kind of peace and happiness for their bad taste, humiliating and humiliating you can still let you live, but if you are taken down by these thieves, then you are ready to finish it directly.

Huang Yi's words made Li Miao shocked, not because he was afraid of the methods of those thieves that Huang Yi said, but because he was afraid of this cheating father's brother-in-law.

They are the generals of the first army and are the center, even if they discuss escaping and saving their lives, you have to whisper, you must not let those individuals under your command know, because if you escape, there will be some people as the queen of the abandoned son, and no one wants to be this abandoned son. And before the war starts, you will flee before you fight, which is a blow to morale.

"Idiot!" Li Miao had the heart to kill Huang Yi.

Huang Yi's words suddenly made the soldiers of Li Miaojun below whisper, and the commotion began.

Many of Li Miao's soldiers over there were also looking at Li Miao, and those with family members in the city were even more hopeful looking at Li Miao, because if they retreated, the people who stayed in the city would naturally die.

"Lao Li, your baby is in the city! If Your Majesty is going to retreat, what will you do?" someone whispered among the soldiers.

This soldier named Lao Li laughed miserably, "What can I do? The whole family will die together!" His old Li died on the city wall, and their doll waited for the thief army to break through the city and die in the city.

"My mother!"

"My wife and children. Several of the soldiers began to feel uneasy, and their morale suddenly plummeted. There was nothing called hope on the faces of the soldiers.

"If we can't keep it, we have to keep it, we can't abandon the people!" Li Miao said in a louder voice.

"But!" Huang Yi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Miao, he was afraid of this brother-in-law, and if he asked Bibi not to fight, he would be killed by him.

"There is nothing but, if you say that those who retreat will not be killed!" Li Miao looked like he was not afraid of death.

Li Miao is bitter, where is he Li Miao not afraid of death, where is he concerned about the people, he is completely for his own sake. The common people can't escape, so can Li Miao's grain and grass in the city still be spared?

Where can Li Miao run now? Isn't he like Cao Cao's officials or other princes' cities, if one city is lost, it will be lost, and if you go to other cities, you can eat, and wait for the soldiers and horses to fight back.

And he Li Miao has no way out, it's just such a broken city, the grain is still in the granary, if he runs away now, everyone basically won't live, and he will starve to death if he is hungry, so Li Miao is reluctant to run.

"They're rogues, aren't they!" Li Miao shouted to his subordinates, "We have three hundred soldiers, all of you are the elite of the army, it's a big deal to fight with them, Zhang Xun, you go and tell them that there are only soldiers who died in battle, and there are no soldiers who surrender!" Li Miao said to his subordinates with righteousness and awe.

"Yang Situ, you go to the city to gather the people, tell the people that we are now in danger of survival, let them do what they can, now the sky is dark, the enemy can't see our reality clearly, let everyone go to the city wall, and hold on for one night. Li Miao said to Yang Hong.

"Yes!" Yang Hong took the order and left, and Huang Yi followed behind Yang Hong and was about to leave with Yang Hong.

"Brother-in-law, where are you going?" Li Miao suddenly called out to Huang Yi, who was about to run away.

Huang Yi is a military general! That's right, this Huang Yi Li Miao's cheap brother-in-law is really a military general, Li Miao's father gave him the title, General Hu Ben, Yang Hong and Li Yin, the two scribes can be withdrawn when they are fighting, after all, they are scribes, and they can sit in the rear, but Huang Yi is a military general who must stay on the city wall.

"I, I, I'm going to help Yang Situ and mobilize the people!" Huang Yi said to Li Miao, Li Miao is afraid of death, he Huang Yi is also afraid of death, if you fight on the city wall, it will be a dead person, Huang Yi is not willing to put his life on the city wall, so he wants to escape.

"Brother-in-law, do you know what it is to escape for the general?" Li Miao looked at Huang Yi with a smile.
