Chapter 2802 Revitalizing the Morale of the Aunt-Nephew Association
Murong Lan's face changed slightly, but she saw the cavalry front line on the opposite side dispersed and a passage emerged. Murong Chao was wearing leather armor and dressed as a soldier, and was guarded by Gongsun Wulou and more than ten cavalrymen in the same soldier uniform.
, stepped out from the crowd, and came closer. His face was black and white, the color of smoke, covering his originally fair and handsome face, and his eyes were a little hesitant to follow those in front of him.
Murong Lan faced off directly. Obviously, after this battle, all the pride of the Xianbei emperor was shattered, making him unable to hold his head high.
Murong Lan frowned and saluted on the horse's chest: "I have seen your Majesty, long live my emperor. Long live the emperor."
Murong Chao's nose felt sore: "Auntie, I never thought that it was you who came to greet me at this time."
Murong Lan sighed softly: "Stop talking, Ah Chao, no matter what, it's good to come back. As long as you are here, Dayan still has hope, and everyone still has a backbone."
Murong Chao gritted his teeth: "The damn Jin army has been chasing after them. After Linqu's defeat, General Duan Hui sacrificed his life to buy me time to break out. Later, after we ran out, we and Helan
The generals have gathered together, but my 30,000 armored cavalry are pitiful. Now there are less than 3,000 left. Even if General Helan's men and horses are gathered together, there are only this few people left!"
At this point, his eyes became red, and if it wasn't for being in front of thousands of men, he would have cried.
Helan Lu frowned: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be so sad. Most of the troops are probably scattered. For example, my tribesmen, I will let them break out separately and return to Guanggu City to rendezvous. As for the Yuan brothers,
I also saw the Han army retreating to the west. As for the armored cavalry and national troops who rushed into the enemy's position, they should also have escaped. As long as Guanggu can be defended, I believe there will be more and more troops and horses.
He came back to build his own business.”
Murong Chao sighed: "I thought that when I went out to fight, there would be more than 200,000 strong soldiers. They were not only trying to defeat Liu Yu, but they also wanted to take advantage of the trend and go south to seize the land of the six counties in the north of the Yangtze River. They even fought across the river.
, destroy the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and achieve what the powerful northern powers and even the late emperors have not been able to do for hundreds of years. But now..."
At this point, his tears finally shed uncontrollably, but he was so sad that he could no longer say a word.
Murong Lan said in a deep voice: "Ah Chao, at this time, it is meaningless to say these words. You are the king of a country and the commander-in-chief of the entire army. At this time when the army is defeated, what you need is to be strong, confident, and brave. Your
Every move, every word and every deed is an example for the soldiers, how can you feel sorry for yourself here and let the soldiers be disappointed and frustrated?"
Murong Chao raised his head and was about to speak. Murong Lance immediately took two steps forward, pointed behind Murong Chao, and said loudly: "Look at the soldiers behind you. They are all tired, hungry, and exhausted.
They have just experienced a life-and-death fight, experienced the death of their brothers and comrades, and experienced the difficulty of being chased by the enemy for hundreds of miles. However, they still follow you and never abandon you. Isn't it because of their feelings for Dayan?
Loyalty and trust in you? At this time, you cannot have any depression or disappointment. If you lose your confidence, are you worthy of these loyal and brave soldiers?"
Murong Chao gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Auntie, you are right. I lost my temper temporarily and let the soldiers down."
Having said this, he turned back to the cavalry behind him and said loudly: "Soldiers, Princess Lan personally went out to meet us. Guanggu City is already in full formation, and the soldiers and civilians in the city have prepared fine wine and delicacies for us.
To welcome you, your parents, wives and children are also in the city now, waiting for your safe return. Brothers, reinforcements from all over Dayan have arrived in Guanggu City. Next, we will be here,
Waiting for work, waiting for Liu Yu and his Jin army to come and die! Back then, our ancestors of the Murong clan took advantage of the defense of Jiancheng many times and ushered in a turning point. This time, we will definitely turn defeat into victory and defend Guanggu!"
The soldiers burst into cheers, many of them took out their horns and cheered, and more people beat their tambourines. This kind of drum and trumpet blast is often the music after a victory, but this time, it was not.
It was used here, and the military morale, which was sluggish just now, was quickly revived.
Murong Chao looked at Murong Lan and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Thank you, aunt, for giving me confidence again and restoring the morale of the soldiers."
Murong Lan nodded with satisfaction: "This is the descendant of our Murong family, and this is the emperor of our Dayan. After all, you have the blood of the late emperor in your body. You have not let me down. Chao, have you seen anything along the way?"
Imperial Master?"
Murong Chao shook his head: "No, we broke into Liu Yu's formation from different directions. Later, I was attacked by the Jin army in Linqu City. They surrounded a force from the sea to attack the city. I sent all the soldiers and horses
We all sent out, and there were no soldiers around us. We had to fight our way out of the city to meet up with Duan Hui and Wulou who were in the vanguard. General Duan Hui fought to break the rear, but Wulou and I escaped. We met General Helan on the way. You see.
According to the situation, as for the national division, there are still 20,000 armored cavalry trapped in the formation, and their lives and deaths are unknown now."
Murong Lan sighed: "Achao, the strength of the troops in the city is acceptable now, but the biggest problem is the unrest among the people. We have experienced such a huge defeat, how can we make the brothers believe that this last-ditch battle will be successful? The national division should still be alive, but
They haven’t shown up yet. This makes me even more worried.”
Murong Chao's expression changed: "You're still alive? How can you see that?"
Murong Lan said sternly: "The person who let me out was He Lanmin. She took the flying horse token given by the imperial master and drove the Han people out of the city. She even ordered the more than two thousand Han people in Taixue to be killed.
Musician, since He Lanmin acted on his orders, it means that he is still alive, but he refuses to show his face."
Murong Chao looked at Helan Lu and Gongsun Wulou next to him with a confused look on his face: "What do you think the Imperial Master meant by issuing such an order?"
Gongsun Wulou said quickly: "I think the Imperial Preceptor was worried about the Han people in the city. He was afraid that they would have different intentions and collude with Liu Yu, so he drove them out of the city in advance. Moreover, in order to fight the city defense battle, women, children and non-Chinese people should not be left behind as much as possible.
Since the more than 30,000 Xianbei people outside the city are to be allowed to enter the city, we can only drive the Han people out first. Moreover, Mrs. Helan also thinks that these things should be done, right? Mr. Helan
?!"
Helan Lu nodded: "My sister-in-law has always acted under the orders of the Imperial Preceptor. I am afraid that only the Imperial Preceptor can explain this. However, since the Imperial Preceptor ordered Princess Lan to be released, she should..."
Murong Lan shook his head: "The imperial master did not order me to be released. Mrs. Helan released me privately."
