…
"Stop fighting!"
Just when Nan Zhen was venting the resentment accumulated in his heart to his subordinates with a whip, a centurion couldn't bear it anymore and pushed him to the ground with a single arrow.
Nan Zhen was caught off guard and immediately threw a dog to eat shit, but he quickly got up, patted the dust on his body, and roared at the centurion: "What do you want to do? Rebellion?"
The centurion spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm, drew out his curved sword and pointed it at Nanzhen: "Master Nanzhen, the warriors are already suffering a lot. I ran with you for more than ten miles on an empty stomach. Isn't that considered loyal enough?
But you should treat us as individuals at least! Look at everyone, who is still strong, and who is not hungry and weak?
What's wrong with taking a break now? You must tire everyone to death, right? "
Hearing this, Nan Zhuang was trembling with anger: "What are you talking nonsense about? The chance of fighting is fleeting. Is it time to rest now?"
"Bullshit fighter, you're lying!" the centurion yelled, "If the Han army retreats, just let them retreat. What will happen if we catch up?
Are you going to fight the Han army on an empty stomach? Lord Nanzhen, you are also a widowed general after all. Don't you know that when you fight on an empty stomach, you won't even be able to use your third force?
Anyway, if you want to chase, go ahead and chase, we won’t accompany you to your death! "
After saying that, he threw the arc knife in his hand to the ground and lay down directly.
The rest of the noble soldiers did the same. They dropped their weapons one after another and chose to lie down like the centurion.
Soon, the empty land was filled with densely packed soldiers.
This scene caused a sudden panic in Nanzhen's heart. He quickly changed his attitude and begged: "You warriors, you are the last hope of the Imperial Widow Empire.
Don't take a rest at this time. Besides, is now the time to take a rest? If the Han army comes back, we will be in danger.
Please be patient and follow me to wipe out the Han army first. I promise to let everyone have a good rest and get up. "
The centurion snorted coldly: "That sounds nice. Anyway, even if the Han army is wiped out, how much does this credit have to do with us? Isn't it your fault, Sir?"
We are still hungry, how can we fight? If you want us to continue the pursuit, we can distribute the food first so that the warriors can have a good meal.
Look at how hungry everyone is. Do they still have the strength to run? "
Nanzhuan's heart was very heavy. Seeing the Han army gradually moving away, he finally felt heartbroken and knelt on the ground and begged: "Warriors, I am begging you, please hold on a little longer."
As long as you survive today, I guarantee that everyone will have enough to eat. When I return to the capital, I will personally ask your Majesty to record your great achievements.
I swear that everyone who goes on the expedition will receive generous rewards. Please believe me again. When this Han army is wiped out,
I will definitely satisfy you. Besides, now is not the time to rest. We have no cavalry anymore. Once the Han cavalry comes back, will everyone still have a way to survive? "
"Being killed by the Han army is better than starving to death!" the centurion continued, "Why didn't you give us food when you clearly had it, and now you're still lying to us!"
"When did I lie to you? If I had food, I would have taken it out long ago!"
"No food? Huh, what about the mountains of food piled up in the Liulic City warehouse?"
"this……"
"Why, can't you tell me? I know you have occupied so much food to line your own pockets. You would rather starve us to death than cut off your own wealth.
Lord Nanzhen, why is your heart so dark? Now that we have reached this point, are you still deliberately trying to deceive us? Do you think we are easy to bully? "
Hearing this, the surrounding noble soldiers all felt that what the centurion said was very reasonable. There was obviously so much food in the warehouse, but Lord Nanzhen, as the commander of an army, was not willing to share it, which really chilled them.
It's difficult to express the pain. The grain in the warehouse was filled with sand to appease the soldiers' morale. But now it has become a mental burden.
But how could he say this truth now? If he said it, it would definitely cause a mutiny. Nan Zhen didn't want to be hacked to death by the angry hungry soldiers.
So he took the initiative to "fess up": "This was my mistake. I forgot to send the food and grass because I was afraid that Bai Qi would run away. But I promise that after the Han army is defeated,
When I get back, I will take out all the food and grass accumulated in the warehouse and give it to you for disposal. I will never hide another grain secretly. I beg you all to follow me in the pursuit again.
As long as the Han army is defeated, everyone will not be hungry. What's more, it has reached this point. Even if everyone just sits here, there will be no food.
After chasing for a while longer, no matter whether the Han army is wiped out or not, I will take you back to Liulicheng for a feast. "
The centurion frowned: "Is everything you said true?"
Nan Zhen: "Of course, and after the war, I will also let go of your behavior of contradicting me."
The centurion heard this: "Okay, then we will trust you again. If you use any tricks again after the war, you will not stop here."
"Don't worry, I'm sure, I swear!"
With Nan Zhan's words, the centurion immediately said to everyone: "Warriors, please be patient a little longer and wait for the pursuit of the Late Han Army. If Master Nan Zhuang doesn't distribute food, it won't be too late for us to make trouble again.
Now it is better to follow Master Nanzhuang and continue to pursue the Han army. We have reached this point, and everyone is not short of this day and a half, so we should just risk it! "
Under the leadership of the centurion, the army of noble widows who had been sitting on the ground slowly stood up, took a breath, and followed Nan Zhuan to continue to pursue the Han army.
"Hmph, you bunch of untouchables dare to threaten me. After Bai Qi is eliminated, you will have to pay the price for what you have done, in order to relieve the hatred in my heart!"
The army continued to pursue, but Nan Zhen had already made up his mind to make the centurions and the others pay a heavy price for today's humiliation and defiance of him.
Looking from above, the noble army continued to move eastward like a long dragon, squirming scatteredly on the dry land.
Due to the lengthening of the battle line between the front army and the rear army, it was gradually impossible to take care of both the front and rear. At this time, Lu Yu's nearly 10,000 cavalrymen who had been waiting for a fighter plane suddenly came out.
"Go straight to the middle, cut off the enemy's front and rear connections, and kill~~"
"Ho~~"
Tens of thousands of cavalry galloped past, and the earth trembled.
The Guiwi army who were still advancing were frightened. When they saw the rolling waves of the Han army approaching, they were frightened and fled in all directions.
"Kill~~"
How could Lu Yu let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to perform meritorious deeds? He shouted loudly, raised the cold saw in his hand, rode his horse into the formation, aimed at the back of a group of noble soldiers, and swept them past with the help of his horse's momentum.
"Pfft~"
Suddenly, the blade brought out a bright red color, and the five people in the team turned into a bloody mess under the knife.
Behind Lu Yu, thousands of riding waves surged forward, rushing into the enemy formation and trampling all obstacles in front of them under their iron hooves.
Gradually, the Guiwi army was divided into countless encirclement circles by the Han cavalry, which consisted of hundreds of soldiers, crushing and killing all the Guiwi soldiers who dared to resist.
Blood and dust filled the air, turning into powder and floating in the air, exuding an unspeakable bloody stench. In just a moment, the noble widow's army was completely defeated in the middle.
"Humph, what a rabble!"
Lu Yu penetrated the enemy formation and cut a widowed general in half with his man and his horse. He looked at the scattered troops behind him with contempt in his eyes.
"Pass my military order to continue outflanking and drive out all these nobles' troops before letting the enemy troops in the rear get any closer!"
"Kill~~"
