After all, Zhao Yun's shot did not fall. His former subordinates were now half-kneeling in front of him. This scene made him feel indescribably sad.
Even if he has decided to say goodbye to his past self, how can he unilaterally sever ties with those people and things in his past?
"The general's marksmanship is still so sharp."
"You are right, this is a battlefield, and the kindness of the enemy is cruelty to oneself."
"If you want to kill me, just do it. I won't have any complaints if I die under your gun."
"..."
——
"Brother Xia...Brother Xia lost?"
Chen Chen couldn't believe what was happening in front of him.
Xia Yao, who was almost invincible in his eyes, was able to find the flaw and shoot it to the ground with one shot.
He couldn't accept it... so he rushed forward.
…
On the other side, Xia Yao knelt in front of Zhao Yun, waiting for the other party's response.
"Get up, you know I can't kill you, and even if I kill you, we can't leave -"
Zhao Yun told the truth. The reason why he appeared here was because he thought of a way.
"General..."
Xia Yao raised his head and looked at Zhao Yun doubtfully... combined with the group of people he saw in the distance just now, he finally understood what Zhao Yun meant.
"General, you don't need to say any more, I understand...I understand what should be done."
Xia Yao clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, as if he had gone through a very difficult psychological struggle, and finally nodded hard, as if he had made up his mind...
But at this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly came from beside him. Zhao Yun's eyes flashed, and he was about to raise his gun and take action...
Xia Yao turned around in surprise, only to see...
"How dare you hurt the general! I...I can't spare you!"
Chen Chen unexpectedly rushed forward with a fearless look on his face, holding a spear in a posture that was unbearable to look at.
Yes, if Chen Chen rushed up like this, as expected, he would be assassinated by Zhao Yun with a single shot.
Not wanting to see such a scene, Xia Yao raised the spear beside him with a look of hatred on his face, and turned around and drew it towards Chen Chen's shoulder.
How could Chen Chen have expected that his brother Xia would attack him before the enemy took action?
Before he had time to defend, Chen Chen was shot against the wall by Xia Yao. The weapon was released and he fell to the ground in pain:
"Brother Xia! You...what are you doing..."
"From now on, Chen Chen... you must obey my orders honestly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
Chen Chen swore that this was the first time he saw Brother Xia, who was usually amiable and affable, showing such a ferocious expression.
He was puzzled and depressed. He raised his head and looked at the tall man...
There was a look in the other person's eyes that he didn't understand. He could feel that this person was very determined, but the other person gave him a feeling of indecision.
In the end what happened…
——
After the city was breached, Chen Dao encountered almost no decent resistance when he led his men into the city.
Soon they cleared away the remaining soldiers in the city, capturing some and killing them on the spot.
Yihan City is not a big city, it is just a small obstacle on their march route.
As the vanguard, they could have ignored the city completely... After all, there were many smooth roads around, but the reason for doing so was because Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong had learned their previous lessons...
In the Battle of Jiangdong, Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang, who thought they were sure of victory, violated the taboo of dividing their troops, which not only weakened their own forces, but also ultimately caused the main army to be attacked from both sides. The result of the three-pronged attack was that none of the three routes were captured.
But this time, they will never do that.
They fought steadily all the way, hitting wherever they went... They relied on the certainty that Liu Zhang would not take aggressive offensive actions.
Yihan is the best springboard for them to win Langzhong next.
So far, Chen Dao and Huang Zhong have done very well.
It was not too late yet, and the soldiers only had to wait for a short rest before continuing towards the next city.
However, before setting off, Chen Dao noticed something was wrong.
In front of the city gate...Chen Dao rode his horse and stood in front of the soldiers.
But the deputy general beside him has not come to report the number of people.
He subconsciously glanced at the army...and suddenly stopped:
"Where's Xia Yao?
Where did Xia Yao's team go?"
Chen Dao has a high opinion of Xia Yao. As the only cavalry commander around him, he has great potential to take over the position of his general.
In fact, it stands to reason that with Xia Yao's strength, he could have become his lieutenant a long time ago.
Chen Dao could even assert that in this cavalry army, apart from him, there was no commander whose comprehensive strength could reach Xia Yao's level.
But the reason why he didn't use Xia Yao was also very simple.
That person is Zhao Yun's old subordinate.
Yes--
Just a few months ago, during the head-on confrontation with Yi Xiaotian, Chen Dao followed Zhuge Liang's order and led his men to capture Zhao Yun.
He witnessed the game in which Zhao Yun was exchanged for Pang Tong and Wei Yan. He had no idea at the time, but he would learn later that this game meant that he took Zhao Yun's place and became the most powerful cavalryman beside Zhuge Liang.
.
But there was one thing that left a very deep impression on him.
A group of soldiers who followed Zhao Yun at that time almost caused a riot in the army before Zhao Yun was handed over.
The leader among them is Xia Yao.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and sent people to suppress the rioting group. A large number of them chose to leave after that game. Zhuge Liang gave them a chance to choose, and people like Xia Yao
The person who led the rebellion was even thrown into prison.
Fortunately, after Chen Dao took over Zhao Yun's army, he planned to conquer the people with virtue. After consulting Zhuge Liang, he brought back all Xia Yao's group of Zhao Yun's generals and lieutenants into the army.
The impact is quite acceptable - it is true that the newcomers criticized this, but with the help of Xia Yao and the others, it is also true that the cohesion of the army has been further improved.
This is the first time they have participated in a war since they worked together. It was going well in the beginning...but as they fought, Chen Dao started to mutter a little.
"What the hell is this kid Xia Yao doing?"
There are tens of thousands of people in the entire army waiting for a small team. There is no one like this.
But since Chen Dao has said so, everyone has no choice but to wait for the news——
Chen didn't do this intentionally for revenge...
He calls this reasonable suspicion——
——
However, when the deputy general came to report the news in a panic, Chen Dao understood that something might really have gone wrong with Xia Yao.
"Reporting...General...Commander Xia...Commander Xia said he was going to chase the deserters, but he just led his people towards the west side of the city!"
"You...what did you say?"
Chen Dao reacted immediately. He was not chasing a deserter. He was a deserter himself!
