Meng Huo came out of the Han camp carrying his sword inlaid with pine patterns. Meng Yan behind him asked, "Brother, where are we going this time?"
When Meng Huo heard this, he looked back at the clan members who were following him. Everyone was more or less injured, and their expressions were extremely depressed.
He knew that everyone had been defeated by Zhuge Liang and had lost their will. Even if they could gather their soldiers again, they would still be frightened when they encountered Zhuge Liang and lose the courage to fight against him.
He could only let out a long sigh, "Go back and find the lost people first, and then make long-term plans."
Not to mention them, it's me, so how can we not be convinced by Zhuge Liang?
Meng Huo couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in his heart when he thought that Zhuge Liang could predict his actions every time, which was really like the help of ghosts and gods.
Thinking of ghosts and gods, he recalled the thunder warning when he was in Wei County, and the fear in his heart became even more intense.
"Brother, do we really want to keep fighting?"
Meng Yan asked numbly.
Meng Huo smiled bitterly, "How to fight? This time, it is our last fortune."
Nowadays, all the cave masters and commanders in Yizhou County regard themselves as a savage beast and cannot avoid him. They just want to tie themselves up and go to Zhuge Liang to ask for rewards. How can anyone be willing to send troops to help him?
After thinking for a while, he confessed to everyone, "I want to go back to the stronghold, recruit the lost tribesmen, and then surrender to the Han Prime Minister. What do you think?"
After hearing Meng Huo's words, everyone was stunned, and in the end, for some reason, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Meng Huo looked at it and understood in his heart that even those closest to him were tired of the war, and he firmly decided to surrender.
On the other hand, Mrs. Zhu Rong frowned and said, "Just now in the Han military camp, the Han officer was so disgusting! Ayi Abei, since you went out in anger, if you turn around and surrender to the Han people now, I'm afraid you will be humiliated by him again."
After hearing this, Meng Yan's face changed and he said, "If brother really has this intention, how about I go into the Han camp to see Zhuge Liang first and observe what's going on?"
"you?"
Meng Huo looked at Meng Yan with questions in his eyes.
"Yes," Meng Yan nodded, "I think about it, why did Zhuge Liang let my brother go so many times just to convince him?"
"So I'm going to find out what it means first. If I guess it is true, I think my brother will be happy if he comes to vote for me. If not, why should I be the one begging for mercy? Just fight to the death with Zhuge Liang.
"
"Good brother..."
Meng Huo held Meng Yan's arms, his face full of emotion and guilt, "I...brother, thank you very much. I promise you, if they dare to humiliate you again, I will not surrender until death."
Meng Yan forced a smile, nodded slightly, turned around and walked towards the Han camp again, but when he lowered his head, there was a flash of guilt in his eyes that no one else could detect.
The sergeants in the Han camp couldn't help but feel a little strange when they saw Meng Yan leaving and coming back.
"Sir, please come this way."
Nai Gu led the way and pointed ahead and said, "Sir, I heard Api say that after passing the valley in front, the copper mining place is in the mountains inside."
Feng Yong looked at the valley in front of him and couldn't help but asked strangely, "Elder Naigu, this place is not too far from your village. Why have you never been here?"
Nai Gu led the way and said, "Api won't let me. They said that ordinary people cannot enter this place."
As he said that, he pointed to both sides of the valley and said, "I heard that there were people guarding this place before."
"Although the people evacuated later, who knows when the government will come back? If they come back and find someone going in privately, it will be bad. So Api and the others made a rule that no one in the village can enter here.
valley."
"When I was little, I often heard Api say that there are ghosts here that specialize in eating children..."
"It's been a long time, and the people in the village have gradually gotten used to it, so I really don't know what it's like here."
Naigu talked nonchalantly and took the lead into the valley.
"It doesn't matter, Elder Naigu, as long as we can be sure that copper was dug inside. With so many of us, we can find the mine anyway."
Because Nai Gu said that he was not sure which mountain top his Api dug the copper on, so Feng Yong brought most of the people over and then dispersed them all to find the mine that year. It must not be
What a difficult thing.
Nai Gu turned around and smiled, "Yes, sir, you have brought so many people, it must be enough."
At this time, Old Soldier Lu walked up to Feng Yong, reined in Feng Yong's mount, and said with a smile, "Master, everyone is tired, why not take a rest at the mouth of the valley first?"
Feng Yong was stunned and looked back at the team behind him. Then he remembered that he was the only one riding a horse in the team. He nodded immediately, "Then let's rest for a while."
With that said, he got off his horse and said to Naigu who was walking in front, "Elder Naigu, let's take a rest here first and move forward later."
Naigu paused, looked up and looked ahead, as if looking at the sky, "Sir, it's getting late. I'm afraid we have to get to the field quickly. Why don't we cross the valley and then rest?"
Feng Yong smiled and said, "Don't worry, we have brought enough food when we go out this time. It will be no problem to stay in the mountains for an extra day or two."
"In that case, then listen to your Majesty."
After the order was passed, Old Soldier Lu walked up to Feng Yong and said softly, "Master, would you like me to send a few people to explore the way ahead?"
Feng Yong was startled, glanced at Nai Gu in front of him, and then asked with the same volume, "What did you find?"
Old Soldier Lu shook his head, "Nothing unusual. It's just that I feel that the Lord is in an unknown place, so it's better to be more careful. Besides, when you encounter a dangerous place while marching, it's common sense to send people to find out the situation first.
"
Feng Yong glanced at Old Lu with a complicated look. So this was the reason why he suggested taking a rest in front of the valley entrance, right?
Although he felt that Old Man Lu was making a fuss, he was doing it for his own good. After all, he was also a cautious and loyal person. Feng Yong didn't want to let him down, so he nodded immediately.
"Okay, let a few of you go to the front and take a look, be careful."
"The villain understands."
After getting permission, Old Soldier Lu turned to the soldiers, called a few people, pointed to both ends of the valley and said something, and then the people started running towards both sides of the valley.
Naigu saw this move, turned around and walked to Feng Yong, bent down as if to sit down, and asked with a smile, "Sir, don't you believe in villains?"
Feng Yong was a little unsure and shook his head. A smile appeared on his face and he was about to speak when he saw Naigu's expression suddenly turned ferocious. The hand hanging on his waist suddenly pulled out a short knife and stabbed Feng Yong straight at him!
Feng Yong was sitting on the ground, his movements were inconvenient, and his reaction was half a beat too slow. When he saw the short knife in Naigu's hand, his head buzzed, and he felt that the blood all over his body was boiling.
