"General Xue, we have searched hundreds of meters around the tent, but we still haven't seen Yang Xuangan. We learned from the prisoner we just captured that he may have fled in a hurry," he said, taking advantage of the surge in morale just now. Xue Rengui led the soldiers to rush directly to Yang Xuangan's tent. After a brutal fierce battle, he finally wiped out Yang Xuangan's last stubborn resistance army. However, his only regret was that he did not see Yang Xuangan show up. Even if he ordered the soldiers to search, they could only get the answer just now.
It seems that Yang Xuangan is really cunning. Xue Rengui sighed. He was naturally a little disappointed that he did not catch Yang Xuangan personally. However, Miss Du had already predicted that Yang Xuangan would be cunning. Naturally, there were many traps on his way to escape. Waiting for him, Xue Rengui didn't panic anymore after thinking about it. Now that he had defeated Yang Xuangan, the army needed to be reorganized. He immediately issued an order: "Send some people to clean the battlefield, and the rest to reorganize where they are."
"Yes," the soldier took the order and disappeared from sight soon after.
In the distance, there is a high platform specially built to observe the battle ahead. Now all the generals have been sent down to intercept Yang Xuangan. There are only two shadows left on the high platform. Both of them are dressed in plain clothes, one white and one green, standing on the high platform. , looking at the fierce battlefield in the distance, for a long time, the man in green clothes slowly said, feeling deeply relieved.
"You deliberately lined up Yang You to guard outside. I'm afraid you just wanted him to return a favor to Yang Xuangan."
Yang Xuangan has been defeated, but the man in Tsing Yi knows that it is not easy to catch him. Of course, there are some methods used by the woman next to him, otherwise it will not be easy for Yang Xuangan to escape.
The woman in white clothes hummed softly. Now that the man beside her saw it, she didn't think she was smart. After a moment, she slowly said: "I think Yang Xuangan will also escape from here and stay by the Tuojiang River." The reinforcements will gather together and then surround Phoenix City again to take back what belongs to him. It's a pity that he can't cross the Tuojiang River."
Hearing this, the man in Tsing Yi burst out laughing: "If he can't pass the best, I want him to be like Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, on the Tuojiang River, with no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth."
The woman in white paused and her eyes fell on the man beside her. She thought about what he had experienced in this year that many people would never experience in a lifetime. She also saw that he had changed from a person who laughed and occasionally played clever tricks to the person he is now. For a general who is decisive in killing, such a huge change may not be what he wants.
"We're almost in Xinzheng. I miss Chang'an so much, my family so much, the Imperial College so much, and I really want to go back." Suddenly, the woman in white sighed softly to the sky, and looking sideways, there was something touchingly beautiful. Even the man next to him had to admit that she at this moment was undoubtedly the most beautiful moment he had ever seen her. Her head was raised slightly, her bright moon-like eyes flashed with uncertain emotions, and she let out a faint sigh. , soft as spring water, refreshing in the heart.
In the distance, the sound of fighting gradually weakened, replaced by the screams left by the disaster of war. After watching it for a long time, the man in green shook his head and said: "Let's go, I hope to see the desperate Yang Xuangan."
After finishing speaking, the two of them immediately walked off the platform without saying another word.
Outside Phoenix City, a group of hundreds of troops fled for their lives as fast as if a disaster was approaching. Fortunately for them, if the general at the gate of the city hadn't mercifully let them live, they didn't know what would have happened. Get out of here alive.
The whole army ran a long way, and they stopped for a while when it was estimated that the pursuers behind them could not catch up for the time being.
The general, who was surrounded by soldiers and rode a green horse, was obviously staring at the sky behind him with a tired face. After a long time, he revealed a vicious look and said greedily: "Meng Xinghe, I will be back. When the time comes, I will bring my 100,000 troops to wipe out Phoenix City, Lan Tian, Yang You, Xu Hu, and none of you can escape. I will take back what you gave me ten times and a hundred times."
He snorted coldly and saw the soldiers slowing down. The man on the green horse immediately shouted: "Don't rest, everyone. Now, we have left Phoenix City. As long as we cross the Tuojiang River and join the reinforcements, we will all come again." "Come back," the army that had originally slowed down turned into a rapid march again after this order, but the general who spoke was not at all depressed about fleeing in a hurry. In his eyes, the winner and the loser are always the best. Good explanation, victory is victory, defeat is defeat, there is no reason, and I won’t think about it. The only idea I insist on is that as long as there is still a chance, as long as there is still a breath left, there will always be a day to take it back. This is Yang Xuangan, even though he was completely defeated, he still stood up tenaciously.
However, things were not as simple as he saw. Not long after they left Phoenix City, when they all thought they were in a safe area, a fire suddenly lit up on the mountain col in front of them. Yang Xuangan was shocked at that moment, "There is an ambush." After three words of exit, he suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the previous city gate was so easy to exit. It turned out that there was still a hurdle halfway.
"Who are you? Hiding is not a hero," he roared at the mountain cols on both sides. At this time, Yang Xuangan was actually worried about whether his hundreds of soldiers were vulnerable. Seeing the opponent's ambush here, he might not be able to Easy to deal with.
As soon as he finished speaking, a man walked out with the sound of kicking and stomping on the mountain col ahead.
"Yang You, it's you," Yang Xuangan narrowed his eyes. He never expected that the person waiting at this mountain col was actually the traitor Yang You: "What a person whose conscience was eaten by a dog, if it weren't for my Yang family back then, , you have starved to death on the streets a long time ago, and now you are repaying kindness with hatred. Come on, I have nothing to fear from you, general."
Seeing Yang You coming over alone, Yang Xuangan slowly put his hand on the sword and shouted at him: "Kill if you want, I have nothing to fear, general."
Completely ignoring his words, Yang You walked out of the mountain col and walked slowly to a distance of fifty steps from Yang Xuangan.
Suddenly, he jumped off the horse.
"Let's go," Yang You said only three words, and with a wave of his hand, the path behind him that was originally blocking Yang Xuangan's progress slowly moved out of the way.
"You will let me go," Yang Xuangan didn't seem to believe Yang You's words. However, he stared at the resolute man in front of him. He knew Yang You's character after following him for twenty years. He was holding the reins of the horse and kicking He walked forward step by step while holding the horse's belly. At this time, the hundreds of soldiers behind him were also walking step by step with Yang Xuangan.
"Wait a minute," Yang You scolded when he saw this.
"Haha, you are indeed a repetitive villain," Yang Xuangan laughed at himself and stopped leaving immediately.
Yang You didn't seem to care what Yang Xuangan said about him. He was able to achieve this step and already felt sorry for Meng Xinghe, but he had to repay the favor of saving his life. Letting Yang Xuangan go would be regarded as repaying his kindness to him.
Thinking of this, Yang You paused and said: "You can go, but you are only allowed to go alone. The rest of the people please stay and go back with me."
"You think I'm afraid of you?" Yang Xuangan immediately prepared to command the battle, but looked behind Yang You and saw from the firelight that there were more than 3,000 people there. If the fight really started, he might not be able to escape even one of them.
Forget it, these hundreds of soldiers are completely useless.
Thinking of this, Yang Xuangan did not hesitate at all, and immediately moved the reins to prepare to go alone.
"General, are you really going to abandon us brothers who have followed you in the north and south?"
"General,"
Just as Yang Xuangan was leaving, behind him, the voices of his hundreds of escaped soldiers could be heard calling to stay. At this moment, they watched helplessly as the general who had worked for him all his life was moving away from them step by step. With this departure, perhaps From now on there will be no relationship between them.
After walking a few steps, Yang Xuangan stopped again. Behind him, the soldiers thought that his words had called him back, and they were looking at him eagerly, with expectations written on their faces.
Unfortunately, Yang Xuangan stopped and said in his extremely cold voice: "Today, I have no choice but don't worry, I will be back. I hope I can see you all when I come back."
Wow, like cold water being poured on them in the middle of winter, the hearts of those hundreds of soldiers had frozen into ice.
Are you just leaving like this? Are you willing to abandon your brothers just for yourself? Maybe everyone can fight to the death and ensure that the general gets out, but at this moment, no one has the thought of working for Yang Xuangan.
Because, he is not worth it.
Seeing Yang Xuangan passing by Yang You who was blocking the front, and then disappearing at the end of the mountain col, the hundreds of soldiers were completely chilled. The one who fell down and put down his weapon was a deputy general who followed Yang Xuangan. He also came from Jiangdu with Yang Xuangan back then. Fleeing to Lingnan, he didn't expect that their whole life was worth nothing in his eyes.
"Brothers, surrender, follow General Meng, maybe we can all return to the Central Plains,"
After the words of surrender were heard, the sword was abandoned, the shield was lost, and even the flag with the word "Yang" written on it was lost. At this moment, Yang Xuangan left tens of thousands of soldiers in Phoenix City, and what was left was only He walked alone,
