Chapter 134: Li Mu's Death (II)
Gao Yuan was also confused, not knowing whether to jump into the pit and chase after the assassin. And at this moment, I only heard Li Yinghong crying and shouting: "Gao Yuan, come here, father...... Father ......"
Gao Yuan listened, hesitated slightly, and finally gave up chasing the assassin and hurried to Li Mu's side. And the other generals were also behind the plateau, surrounding Longlong.
At this time, Li Muji fell into Li Yinghong's arms, his face was pale, there was not even a little blood, and his breathing was weak, and his eyes had lost the luster of the past.
When Gao Yuan saw it, he couldn't help but feel sad. Since he came to this time and space, Li Mu has attached great importance to him, took good care of him, and married his daughter to him. Therefore, Gao Yuan is indeed very grateful to Li Mu in his heart, and has regarded Li Mu as his own elder, and now Li Mu was assassinated in front of his eyes and was about to die, Gao Yuan couldn't help but burst into tears, knelt beside Li Mu, and cried: "General......"
A smile squeezed out of Li Mu's pale face, and said, "This day has finally come, Gao Yuan, I originally wanted to do more things for you, but now it seems that I can't help you anymore, and I will have to rely on yourself in the future." ”
Li Yinghong couldn't help but cry and said, "Father, ......" tears fell like raindrops.
Li Mu raised his eyelids and said, "Yinghong, I am already an old man over fifty years old, even if I die, it is not considered a premature death, so you don't have to be sad, I just promised you for my father, and when I am free, I will help find your biological parents, it seems that I can't do it." ”
At this time, Li Yinghong's voice was choked, and he couldn't even say a complete sentence.
Li Mu took a few more breaths and said, "Gao Yuan, Yinghong will be entrusted to you to take care of it in the future." ”
Gao Yuan wiped his tears, nodded, and said, "Don't worry, General, I will definitely take care of Yinghong in the future." ”
Li Mu's eyes looked at the generals behind Gao Yuan again, and said, "Everyone, from now on, Li Mu can no longer fight side by side with you. ”
And at this time, there was also a sobbing sound in the big tent, Li Mu had a very high prestige among the Zhao army, and won the hearts of the army, so it was very difficult for the generals to see that he was dying soon, and it was very difficult for him to live, Chen Shi took a step forward and said: "The general ......" only said three words, and he was so choked that he couldn't go on.
Li Mu gasped a few more times before he said: "Everyone, I Li Mu have one last thing, that is, please do your best to help Gao Yuan in the future, just like for me, can you agree to Li Mu's last request." ”
Chen Shi calmed down a little at this time, and said: "Don't worry, general, we will definitely do our best to assist the plateau, and there will be no changes." ”
The most trusted generals of the three subordinates under Li Mu were Sima Shang, Yuan Xuan, and Chen Shi. At this time, only Chen Shi was in Dazhai, so only Chen Shi was qualified to represent the generals and promise Li Mu's requirements.
After listening to Chen Shi's words, the corners of Li Mu's mouth also showed a smile, but he immediately gasped again, and said, "Sue... Sue Sima Shang and Yuan Xuan, let them also... Also ......"
Before the words were finished, they stopped dumbly, and a generation of famous generals was lost like this.
"Father." Li Yingqiong let out another cry of sorrow, put her head tightly on Li Mu's head, and cried loudly. And all the people in the tent were grieved, and wept incessantly. The whole tent was filled with mourning again.
Although Gao Yuan had heard Li Mu say more than once before that his teacher predicted that he would not live this year, after eliminating the possibility that Li Mu was framed by Guo Kai, although Gao Yuan was also constantly telling himself, he couldn't be careless, and he must pay attention to protecting Li Mu, but his heart was not so nervous, and when this day really came, Gao Yuan was sad, and his heart couldn't help but be empty for a while, Li Mu was really dead, so what should he do in the future?
For a long time, the plateau can be said to have been living under the protection of Li Mu, from which Li Mu left Handan and went to Quyang to cut the land for autonomy, and it became the psychological pillar of the whole army, and it can be said that this Zhao army is Li Mu's army alone. This is also the fact that the Zhao army can still defeat the Qin army with the weak and defeat the Qin army in the case of an absolute disadvantage, and Li Mu's death, the psychological pillar of the Zhao army will completely collapse, and it may be able to be torn apart at any time. Although Li Mu still instructed the generals to assist him before he died, can he replace Li Mu now?
At this moment, a guard ran into the big tent and said, "Report to the general..." The guard couldn't help but feel a chill, and said in a trembling voice: "What's wrong with the general?" ”
At this time, everyone's attention was also attracted by him, and the grief was also reduced a little, and Chen Zhi said, "What's the matter?" ”
The guard still said, "General... What the hell happened to the Great General? ”
Chen Zhi said sharply: "Don't talk nonsense, what happened?" ”
The guard remembered what was going on, and hurriedly said, "There is a Qin army... The Qin army is attacking our Dazhai ......"
When everyone heard him say this, they realized that outside the big tent, there was indeed the sound of fighting and fighting. And it is very clear that the Qin army is launching an attack on Dazhai. It's just that just now, everyone was only grieving Li Mu's death, so they didn't notice it.
But at this time, everyone in the big tent looked at each other, a little dazed and at a loss.
After being silent for more than ten seconds, Chen Shi came to Gao Yuan and said, "Gao Yuan, before the general died, he had already asked all of us to make you the main general, and we all agreed to the general, so how to deal with the Qin army now is up to you to decide." Among the generals, Chen Zhi's status and status are the oldest, so after hearing what he said, all the generals also focused their eyes on the plateau.
In fact, at this time, Gao Yuan was also in turmoil, and he didn't know how to deal with it. But Gao Yuan also knows very well in his heart that someone must stand up now, otherwise this army will collapse immediately, regardless of whether he has the ability to replace Li Mu or not, but now only he can stand up and lead everyone on his behalf to overcome the current crisis, and other things can only be said when the current difficulties are overcome.
After all, he is also a person who can afford to take it and let it go, although he is sad at this time, he can also distinguish between the priority and the urgency, so he wiped his tears, stood up, and said: "General Chen, now that the general is dead, it is not appropriate for us to fight with the Qin army, so we should evacuate here as much as possible and retreat to Jingcheng Dazhai to garrison." Therefore, you first command the army, resist the attack of the Qin army, retreat for the army, and buy time, and the death of the general is kept secret for the time being, and the whole army cannot be informed. ”
Chen Shi also nodded, agreeing with Gao Yuan's decision, because he also knew very well that the current Gao Yuan could not replace Li Mu's position in Zhao Jun's mind, and once the news of Li Mu's death suddenly spread, Zhao Jun's morale would immediately collapse. And the Qin army was able to launch an attack on the Zhao army at this time, of course, it was prepared, so at this time, it was really not appropriate to fight hard with the Qin army.
Retreating to Jingcheng Dazhai can temporarily avoid the limelight of the Qin army, so that the whole army has a process of bearing, and at the same time, you can also take advantage of the dangerous terrain of Jingcheng Dazhai to resist the attack of the Qin army. What to do in the future? I can only wait until I arrive at Jingcheng Dazhai, find Sima Shang and Yuan Xuan, and discuss it together. It's not that Chen Shi doesn't trust Gao Yuan, but in the face of such a big event, he really doesn't dare to fully trust Gao Yuan.
So Chen Shi immediately said: "Okay, I will immediately go to command the resistance, and you will also prepare as much as possible and withdraw to Jingcheng Dazhai." As he spoke, he called two more generals and went out of the big tent with him.
Gao Yuan did not hesitate, and immediately began to give orders, assign generals, and prepare to evacuate Dazhai. At this time, the generals were actually at a loss, panicked, and had no clue, so they didn't have the intention to think about whether the order of the plateau was reasonable, so they immediately carried it out, so that no one had any dissenting intentions.
After all the generals were ordered to carry out, Gao Yuan came to Li Yinghong's side, and at this time, Li Yinghong was still holding Li Mu's body and sobbing. Gao Yuan patted her on the shoulder lightly and said, "Yinghong, now is not the time to be sad, we must avenge the general in the future, but now we should take the general's body and leave here first." ”
When Li Yinghong heard this, he finally stopped his sadness, nodded, and said, "Okay, let's get out of here." ”
After finishing speaking, the two immediately found a piece of felt and wrapped Li Mu's body, and at this time, outside the big tent, a chariot had been parked, and the two put Li Mu's body on the chariot.
But at this moment, I saw Chen Shi hurrying over and said, "Plateau, Yinghong." The Qin army has already entered Dazhai, and it seems that it can't be defended, so you better withdraw quickly. ”
When Gao Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, he couldn't imagine that the Qin army would break through Dazhai so quickly, and when he looked up, he saw that a group of Qin troops had already entered the Dazhai of the Zhao army, and everyone was brave, only killing countless Zhao soldiers and killing countless deaths.
At this time, the leader of the generals was standing on a chariot, tall, dressed in black clothes and black armor, but without a helmet, with long hair and a black cloak draped over his shoulders, flying with the gallop of the chariot. With a halberd more than seven meters long, it can even attack the front of the cart horse. And the Zhao soldiers who stood in front of his chariot left and right were all knocked away by his halberd, and they were extremely brave, as if the demon king had descended into the world. And behind his chariot, there was a large black flag with the word "Han" written on it.
The halberd waved, and several Zhao soldiers were knocked away in a row, and laughed loudly on the chariot: "Listen to the soldiers of the Zhao army, now that Li Muji is dead, you will definitely lose this battle." ”
When Gao Yuan heard this, he also smiled bitterly, knowing that the defeat was determined and could not be changed, and said, "Let's go quickly." ”
