He Wuji's eyes were sparkling with tears, and his voice was choked with sobs: "As a general and an important minister of the imperial court, Jiangzhou is the place where I need to live and die. Now I order the chief historian Deng Qianzhi to join the army. Yin Chan joins the army. Zhang Shao, now quickly break out of the encirclement, abandon the ship and land back to Yuzhang, join the guard general Xie Bao, and the general Wei Shunzhi guard the city. If you can, guard, but if you can't, retreat to Yuzhou to join Liu Fu's army. Evacuate quickly, without making any mistakes!"
Zhang Shao immediately knelt in front of He Wuji, with tears streaming down his face: "Zhennan, you must never commit suicide. Keep the green hills here, and you are not afraid of running out of firewood. As long as you survive, you will always have a chance in the future!"
Deng Qianzhi and Yin Chan also knelt down: "We have followed Zhennan for many years, and we are brothers and sisters. We will never leave you Zhennan here alone. Even if the overall situation is irreversible, we can break out of the encirclement together."
He Wuji gritted his teeth and said sternly: "That's enough. You civil servants can't fight. The target of the demon thief is not you, but me, the general. If we leave together, we will die together. Only I will stay." This is where you have a chance to escape. In this battle, our entire army was almost wiped out. I need someone to tell Liu Yi, tell Liu Daogui, and tell the slaves about the situation of this battle!"
Zhang Shao wiped his tears: "Although we are civil servants, we also have a loyal heart. This is where our duties lie. If you want us to leave, you are asking us to run away from the battlefield."
He Wuji shook his head: "Now, in the name of the general, I am ordering you to evacuate. This is not to escape from the battlefield, but to carry out military orders. If you continue to resist here and refuse to leave, then you will be required to engage in military law. If you continue to do so, you will be punished by military law." Earth, I will personally enforce military law!"
As he spoke, he threw the sword in his hand and landed on the deck in front of the three people. The sword energy emanated from the air, frightening the three civil servants and all of a sudden they stood up.
He Wuji looked at the dozen or so sergeants who were kneeling on the ground silently behind the three of them, and said: "He Chong, the safety of the three soldiers who joined the army is left to you. Even if you risk your life, you have to save them." Escort him out, do you understand?”
He Chong is a dark, muscular man about thirty-four or five years old. He has a strong back and a strong waist. Even when he is kneeling there, he looks like a hill. At first glance, he looks like a strong man who is one in ten thousand. He has followed He Wuji for many years, and has a sympathy for him through life and death. Brother's guard captain, without raising his head, said in a deep voice: "I will not accept such an order. I have sworn a long time ago that I will always accompany my lord no matter what!"
He Wuji shook his head: "I also swore that I would always be the safest backing behind the slave. If a sword were to hit him, it would be me behind him, who would have been rotted like blood and mud. But now it looks like Come, I'm afraid I can't fulfill this promise. He Chong, if you stay with me and no one protects the three soldiers who joined the army to break out, then no one else will know what happened here today, and the sacrifices of all our soldiers will be in vain. Meaning, are you willing to have such an outcome?"
On the deck in front of He Chong, tears began to fall down drop by drop. This iron-like man began to cry, just like the more than ten guards around him.
He Wuji turned his head, not wanting to look at the civil and military affairs behind him anymore, and said loudly: "Maybe this is fate. The glory of my life, He Wuji, is here, and the end is also here, Sangluozhou, haha, what a good name. Where is my Suwu Festival?”
He Chong gritted his teeth, stood up at once, turned around and pulled out the Suwu knot that had just been inserted on the back deck. Nine balls of banners fluttered in the wind, and the cold light on the spurge was as cold as the setting sun in this place. Under the illumination of the sun, He Chong held up the halberd, knelt down behind He Wuji, and said in a deep voice: "General, please take the halberd. I will fight until my last breath to escort the three soldiers to break out."
He Wuji didn't look back at He Chong. He relaxed his tiger arms and lifted the euphorbia in one hand. He flicked it in the air. The ball swayed and the built-in bells sounded. His voice came down the wind. : "Go and tell the slave that you must be careful of the raids of demon thieves and don't be too hasty with Zhu Lingshi."
Yin Chan said bitterly: "This traitor Zhu Chaoshi is so hateful, why does Zhennan still protect this Zhu family brother?"
He Wuji said in a deep voice: "I have a hunch that Zhu Chaoshi may not have really surrendered the thieves. The ambush behind the thieves, whether it was the ambush on the sandbank behind or the giant ship, was obviously not controlled by Zhu Chaoshi. As a general, Zhu Lingshi , killing at will will shake the morale of the army. You must tell the slave truthfully about these things and let him make the decision. Whether Guanggu fights or retreats, he must never think about Jiangzhou. Xi Le and Dao Lu will definitely Stop the demon thief!"
Having said this, he slammed the euphorbia onto the deck and shouted, "Quickly leave!"
He Chong stood up, gave a final salute to He Wuji, turned around, pointed to a small boat on the side of the ship, and said in a deep voice: "You three, please follow me."
The three of them looked at each other, bowed to He Wuji for the last time in tears, and turned around to retreat. As they left, more than forty sergeants gradually gathered around the deck, all with their helmets crooked. Their armor was cracked and their bodies were covered with wounds. It was obvious that these were the only soldiers still alive on the Dragon Crossing the River, and even the Jin soldiers still holding weapons on the entire battlefield.
He Wuji turned around, looked across the resolute and familiar faces, and softly called out their names: "Er Dan, San Wazi, stinky dog, Lao Lapi..."
Every time someone is called, the sergeant will perform a military salute, fist across his chest: "General!"
A smile gradually appeared on He Wuji's face: "He is incompetent and has caused everyone to suffer. The matter is over. Everyone's responsibilities have been fulfilled. There is no need to make unnecessary sacrifices. Although the demon thief is cruel and vicious, he will not take advantage of others. We killed Zhu Chaoshi and the soldiers from Nankang's prefectures and counties and survived. Let's just be patient for a while and keep ourselves useful, so we can make a difference."
Sanwazi said in a deep voice: "General, do you want us to surrender? We, the men of Beifu, can have our heads cut off and our blood shed. We would rather die than surrender!"
All the sergeants raised their weapons: "Heads can be severed and blood can be shed. I would rather die than surrender!"
He Wuji gritted his teeth, and when he was about to speak again, he heard a burst of feminine laughter from above his head: "He is really a guy who will not be separated even when death comes, just like those prisoners of the Beifu soldiers in Nankang City, It’s smelly and hard, since you all want to die so much, then I’ll make it happen for you!”
He Wuji's expression changed, and when he looked up, he saw a stunning female general with silver soft armor, a red scarf covering her head, and two swords on her back. She was guarded by dozens of fierce Tianshi Dao swordsmen, standing on Hai Long. On the bow of the ship, with her arms folded, she was extremely beautiful, while Zhu Chaoshi frowned, stood beside her, and said: "Zhennan, surrender!
"
