Two hours passed, and the sky grew dark. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!)
The officers below 6 Yao all gathered on the tower of the Great Xia Gate.
Sitting in the crowd and gasping for breath was none other than the subordinate of 6 Yao earlier, Shi Chang Duan Kuang, who had switched to Long Jimeng with Gao Xiang. Duan Kuang's face was as white as a ghost, his body was covered with blood, and his clothes and armor were in tatters. There were two hideous knife wounds on the left side and back, and the middle, ring, and little fingers of his right hand were all severed by sharp blades, revealing Bai Sensen's bones. A medical officer was forcefully tearing the pieces of clothing from the dry blood scabs, which was quite painful, but Duan Kuang didn't realize it, just stunned.
At this time, Xue Tong hurriedly arrived, pushing away several generals and squeezing them into the crowd. Seeing Duan Kuang's miserable situation, he asked in shock: "Duan Kuang, are you ...... Are you the only one? ”
Duan Kuang's expression was sluggish, and he slowly spoke after Xue Tong's repeated questions.
It turned out that since defecting to Long Jimeng, Gao Xiang and others have all been promoted, and they have led an army to be stationed in the south of Huguan City. The night before yesterday, Long Jimeng suddenly summoned Gao Xiang to discuss the matter, and at the same time, a general entered the camp with a military talisman to restrain the troops from moving. Duan Kuang and other officers were not suspicious at first, but when Gao Xiang did not return late at night, all the officers and soldiers became noisy.
At this moment, the Huns had already opened the pot to close the city gate and invaded in a big way. After all, Duan Kuang and the others were all veterans, and they immediately took decisive measures to kill some of Long Jimeng's cronies in the camp, and assigned troops to defend the camp. Although the Huns had a large number of troops, they could not help them in a short time. Who knew that a moment later, Long Jimeng personally led the troops to come, and held the Gao Xiang level to announce the army! This time, the soldiers were in great confusion, and they were suddenly burst into the camp by the Hu people, and most of the more than 1,000 soldiers and horses were killed, and only a very small number of them took advantage of the chaos to rush out and flee to Jinyang. Duan Kuangma was fast, so he arrived first.
It happened that He Yunhou was right, so he sent him over in a hurry.
Speaking of this, Duan Kuang howled and cried, his voice like weeping blood: "Pity our high army master, a hero, but he fell into the hands of Xiaoxiao!" Pity more than 1,000 brothers in robes, who are bent on killing the enemy and serving the country, and they are so aggrieved to die! ”
For a time, everyone was moved.
Xue Tong and Gao Xiang had the deepest relationship, and at this time they clenched their fists so tightly that their nails pierced their palms and spilled blood. He gasped heavily, his face turned pale, and after a while, he suddenly swung his fist and struck hard at the pheasant. His own soldiers saw that his knuckles were dripping with blood and wanted to come up to bandage him, but he was pushed out with one palm and fell two feet away. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Long Ji Meng! Dragon Ji Meng! I swear to kill this fang! ”
"Shouting has a fart! Shout two voices, and you can curse that guy to death? Among the excited people, a sneering voice suddenly sounded: "It's better to keep this spirit and think about it!" ”
Xue Tong turned around like a whirlwind and asked angrily, "Who?" ”
At this time, who dares to be Xue Tong's rage? The crowd erupted to the left and right, revealing the speaker.
The man stood with his hands on his chest, sneering again and again, it was actually Shen Jin.
Shen Jin and Gao Xiang had no contact with each other when they were in the state army, but since they joined the command of 6 Yao, the two have the same smell and are friendly to each other, and they can be regarded as very good friends. No one would have thought that Shen Jin would make a big fuss at such a time.
Everyone present was silent, only Xue Tong glared at Shen Jin fiercely, his eyes were vicious as if he wanted to devour people. Deng Gang quickly stood at Xue Tong's side and grabbed his arm, and shouted to Shen Jin, "Old Shen, what are you crazy about?" ”
"Hehe, I'm not crazy." Shen Jin strode forward, and under the light of the dancing fire, he felt that his face was gloomy and terrifying: "Lao Gao died in battle, you are sad, and you all want to avenge him, don't you?" But is it time for revenge? Sober up, all of you! ”
"What do you mean by that?" 6 Yao said in a deep voice: "Old Shen, if you have something in your heart, you might as well say it directly." ”
Shen Jin was silent for a moment, glaring at 6 Yao with a blue face.
And 6 Haruka's expression was calm and unusual.
For some reason, everyone present became more and more nervous.
After a while, Shen Jin said in a deep voice: "Daoming, my old Shen is a rough person and can't speak. But there are some thoughts that are really uncomfortable to put in the stomach, and I have to say them to be happy. I can see the current shape clearly: Long Ji rebelled and surrendered to the enemy, and more than 20,000 elite men and horses led by Liu He, the king of the Xiongnu Zuoxian, directly took Jinyang through the Shangdang. And Jinyang's troops are empty, there are no more than a few generals, no more than 3,000 soldiers, and most of them are old and weak...... Yes and no? ”
6 Haruka nodded, "That's true." ”
Shen Jin took a step forward and said hurriedly: "The disparity between the enemy and me is huge, and this Jinyang City will definitely not be able to defend it." As soon as Jinyang was lost, the army on the front line became a turtle in the urn of the Huns, and sooner or later it would be killed. TD, we've lost this battle! ”
We're defeated! As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked. Although everyone deeply feels the danger of the shape, people always have the idea of luck, and the more they are in adversity, the more they involuntarily strengthen the expectation of good. With so many officers present, I am afraid that only Shen Jin, who has a straightforward personality and even a little jumpy, would say this sentence so directly.
"There is a huge disparity between friend and foe. It is also difficult to defend Jinyang City. However, ......6 remote words are carefully considered.
Shen Jin unceremoniously interrupted 6 Yao's words: "Daoming, what else do you want to say?" You're also an old soldier, can't you see that this situation has reached a life-and-death point? He vigorously struck his left palm with his right fist, and there was a crisp sound: "Originally, the court was so incompetent that thieves were rampant here." Now, there are even high-ranking officials who have defected to the enemy and used the heads of my brother in robes to flatter foreign races!
The more Shen Jin spoke, the more excited he became. His expression almost became a little hideous, and the hot breath from his mouth sprayed all the way to 6 Yao's face: "In this case, why do I want to accompany the funeral of the imperial court?" ”
"Shen Jin, what are you talking nonsense?" Xue Tong was furious, and he raised his fist and was about to rush forward, but was stopped by 6 Yao raising his arm.
"It's okay, let him finish."
"Daoming, think about it yourself, in the past, there were 50,000 soldiers in the state army, how many are left now? When the army was reorganized in Keijo, we gathered more than 300 old brothers, how many are there now? ”
6 Yao immediately replied: "If you count Duan Kuang, there are still one hundred and forty-six old brothers in the army of Jicheng. ”
never thought that 6 Yao would answer so quickly, but Shen Jin was stunned; Somehow, the tone weakened: "...... Look, it's already lost in half! Aren't it enough for the soldiers to be born and die for the court? Why...... Why do you have to pay for everyone's lives in Jinyang? ”
He lowered his voice: "Daoming, even if Liu Tingshi treats us well, but we are not his subordinates, and serving him is just the trend of the times." He killed Qiao Xi and defeated Shi Le before, and made a lot of contributions, which is enough to withstand his kindness, you don't want to risk everyone's lives to support this high-ranking official in the court! ”
6 Yao looked at Shen Jin and said slowly: "Then in your opinion, what should we do?" ”
Shen Jin showed a rare solemn look, and said word by word: "Since Dao Ming is in charge of the garrison of the Great Xia Gate, it is a good opportunity. While the Hu army has not yet arrived, let's immediately leave the city and go to Xinxing County! The Hu people will only be busy attacking Jinyang and will not be able to control us...... If you want to live, this is the only chance! ”
As these words came out, the atmosphere on the castle tower suddenly became like it was about to condense.
6 Looking around from afar, many officers showed subtle expressions, even a soldier like Xue Tong, who boasted of his loyalty and bravery, was suddenly thoughtful.
6 Haruka was able to fully understand the mentality of the soldiers, but he still couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Shen Jin's opinions can almost represent the thoughts of most soldiers. Half of them have a blood feud with the Hu people, so they spared no effort when fighting the Hu people, and they are the most brave and reliable warriors. But they were also deeply affected by the incompetence of their predecessor Sima Teng, so their trust in the imperial court has fallen to a pitiful level. Even if Yue Shigong tried to cheer up, he could not reverse it for several months.
In fact, over the years, the court has been in turmoil, and the world has been boiling; The officials and soldiers have all deviated from morality, and they have long been unable to serve the court. Once faced with adversity, from officers to soldiers have the idea of self-preservation in their hearts, the difference is only more or less.
The words that no one had picked out before were only said by Shen Jin at this moment. In fact, judging by the current military situation, what Shen Jin proposed is the most normal choice. This point, 6 Haruka can't deny at all.
However, is the normal choice necessarily the right choice?
6Haruka fell into a long silence.
