Chapter 39: The Expedition to the Kingdom of Northern Hu (15)

The news that disturbed Mirto was much more than that, and a few days later, a crowd arrived outside the city of Halileton, and these people actually shouted at the city.

Mirto stood on the city wall and looked at the people outside the city, they were all residents of the Beihu Kingdom, and the names they shouted were all their own soldiers!

The content of the shouting is to say a few words, go home, don't fight, the king of Donglai said, everyone is brothers and sisters, why fight and kill, it is better to go home and live in peace! It seems that these people outside the city are relatives of the soldiers in the city!

The men shouted outside the city for several days, and sure enough, in the night a few days later, some people began to slip out of the city. In the days that followed, although Mirto strengthened his garrison, some people sneaked out of the city, at first only the soldiers who had been forcibly recruited from various places to guard the northern border, but then slowly some veterans began to sneak out of the city.

Milto, despite strict orders, those who leave the city without permission will be killed! But a large number of people still slipped out of the city every day, and even those who were on guard at night escaped from the city.

A few days later, there were a few more words in the shouting outside the city, that is, so-and-so has gone home, when will you go home, and so on, but these seemingly ordinary words are extremely lethal. My friends have gone home to reunite with their families. And I'm still here to resist uselessly. So that night, although General Mirto was on guard and even patrolled the city wall himself, many soldiers escaped from the city that night, and because of the large number of people, the patrol team quickly found out, but did not stop it! It is said that the crowd was so excited that it almost provoked a mutiny! The captain in charge of the patrol couldn't bear to kill each other, so he let the men out of the city, and then went to Mirto to confess the guilt!

Looking at the captain who had followed him for many years, Mirto naturally couldn't bear to be punished, but said, "You don't think you can keep them anymore?" ”

"The human heart is like this!" The captain said.

Mirto thought for a while and said, "Open the city gates, give the order to go down, and if you are willing to go, leave tomorrow, if you don't leave tomorrow, then don't go!" ”

The captain looked at Mirto, as if not believing what he was hearing.

"Go ahead!" Mirto said again: "If you can't keep it, don't keep it!" ”

After the captain passed down the order, the soldiers who wanted to leave actually hesitated. The captain looked at it. "Brothers, now that the Mirto leader needs you, you better stay and fight with us!" ”

As soon as he said this, the soldiers hesitated even more.

When the captain saw this, he struck while the iron was hot and said, "Brothers, stay!" ”

The soldiers were still hesitating, when the shouts outside the city rang out again. This time, he actually added that the Grand Leader of Debul Zaha has agreed to the return of the Northern Hu Kingdom to the Donglai Kingdom, and the Grand Leader of De Burzaha has returned to his southern homeland and still enjoys the treatment of the royal family!

Coupled with the words of shouting home, the soldiers who had been hesitant no longer hesitated, and after saluting in the direction of Mirto, they left the city one after another.

It didn't take long for the city of Harilton to fall silent, and the shouting outside had stopped.

"How many people are left?" Mirto asked.

"Nearly 100,000!" The captain said.

"It's fine!" Mirto knew that 20,000 of the 100,000 troops were his own personal guards, and the 80,000 were the permanent garrisons of Halilton City, so naturally he would not leave! But in the time of this day, only half of the troops are left!

Mirto looked into the distance and said in his heart, It's not good to fight, do you really think that there is no one in our Beihu country?

Wen Bufan watched as those people outside Harilton slowly left. "You say, what is Mirto thinking now?" ”

"Must be in a bad mood! I'm thinking about how to get revenge! Murhajita said.

"That's right, Mirto will definitely take revenge!" Sui Shang also said.

"Do you think Mirto won't submit to us because of this?" Wen Bufan said.

Both Murhajita and Sui Shang shook their heads.

"Looks like there's still going to be a fight!" Wen Bufan said.

At this time, Mirto was indeed preparing for battle, when a personal soldier came in from outside and whispered: "Chief, someone asks to see you." ”

"Who?" Mirto asked.

"Yes......" said the soldier, "the strange people who fought us before!" ”

This pro-soldier has followed Mirto to confront those treemen in the north for a long time, so he naturally knows those treemen.

"It's them, what are they doing here?" Mirto said, "Let him in!" ”

"Yes!"

Moments later, a tree man walked in, wrapped in impenetrable wraps and hiding his face from a long hat.

"If you're here, why hide your head and tail?" Mirto said.

"It's not hiding the head and tail, it's just that the body is sick, and I hope that the leader Haihan is still in good health." The man said.

Mirto naturally didn't want to entangle him with this, so he said bluntly: "What do you mean by coming here? ”

"Come and solve the leader's trouble!" The man said.

"Solve my trouble?" Mirto sneered.

"Exactly!" The man said.

Mirto looked at the man and said, "What do you do?" ”

"The chief's urgency lies in food and grass. We have grain and grass! The man said.

"Really? Do you want to support me? Mirto said.

"Yes."

"And what are your conditions?" Mirto believes that the other side will not be unconditional.

"Our condition is very simple, that is, please ask the leader not to surrender to Donglai Kingdom!" The man deliberately accentuated the word 'surrender'.

"I don't need to be reminded of this, I, Mirto, have no habit of surrendering!" Mirto said.

"That's for the best! The grain and grass will be delivered in a few days, please arrange for the general to guard the north city gate and take his leave! The man said he was leaving.

"Wait!" Mirto shouted, looked at the man and said, "Shouldn't you tell me why are you helping me?" ”

The man didn't look back, but said, "We have a common enemy!" Then he turned around and left!

Mirto looked at the man's back and continued to question.

Three days later, sure enough, a team of men and horses escorted more than 100 carts towards the north gate of Halileton City, and because Milto had taken precautions in advance, these carts entered Halilton City without accident. The people who transported the grain and grass were also wrapped in airtight, and left in a hurry after leaving the grain and grass!

Mirto looked at the grain and grass, and roughly estimated it, enough to cope for a while!
