PS: I understand the eagerness of book friends to read. However, I have been busy recently, so I will try my best to read more. I also hope that everyone can support, recommend, and give me rewards!
Looking at Li Cheng with a relaxed look on his face, Mr. Song hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but said: "We have been searching carefully in this barren mountains for many years, and then we found this rare paradise, with streams and peach blossoms at the foot of the mountain and green mountains.
Bamboo is luxuriant, even if it is really the Peach Blossom Spring written by Tao Yuanming, it is reasonable, but why was this group of bandits able to find this place, and even sent so many people for the first time?"
Li Cheng suddenly turned his head and looked at Mr. Song who was standing next to him: "You mean... there is someone in the village who has a problem."
Mr. Song couldn't help but laugh: "Since when did you, Li CD, become so suspicious? Even the people in the village are fools and know that there is no benefit in doing so. What's more, if anyone in the village wants to go out, they must get unanimous permission from everyone.
And we always travel in groups, so there is no possibility of contact with bandits. Besides, do you think bandits have such a leisurely time to play with each other inside and outside?"
Li Cheng stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, and said with some shame: "Someone is too worried, and people will have random thoughts when they get old. But according to your statement, how should we explain it? We were busy dealing with the bandits before, and we were really busy dealing with them.
I didn’t pay much attention to this issue, but now that I think about it carefully, it seems to be really mysterious..."
Mr. Song sighed, glanced at him and said with a smile: "Do you still remember how the general evaluated you back then?"
"Why did you suddenly mention this matter?" Li Cheng looked at his old friend in astonishment and gave a wry smile. In an instant, his memory traveled fifty years back to that high-spirited era. "You can be the choice of a pioneer, but it is difficult to be a general."
Yes, I remember this sentence clearly."
Mr. Song tapped the crutch in his hand lightly and sighed: "This comment is actually talking about me and Lao Zheng. We can be pioneers but not generals. In fact, it is saying that our vision is narrow. In fact, it is different from being able to general."
Compared with the generals who manipulated the entire Northern Wei Dynasty, no one is qualified to say that they have a broad vision. But you have to admit that there are some things that we cannot see through, and maybe we discover them too late."
Although Li Cheng didn't know why Mr. Song suddenly moved Chen Qingzhi out, he also knew that his old friend had his reasons for doing what he did. After thinking about it carefully for a while, he suddenly understood something. He looked around at the faint green hills around him and couldn't help but wonder.
He took a breath of cold air: "The mountains around here are overwhelming. If the Israeli army marches in the mountains, it will be difficult to detect..."
"The more important thing is that if we continue walking east..." Mr. Song said with a worried look, "you can go all the way to the lower reaches of the Luliang River."
In an instant, Li Cheng felt an uncontrollable chill all over his body, and the chill spread like vines from his ankles up to his entire back.
Although Li Cheng had been in the mountains for a long time, after all, every inch of land on the Huaihe River had left traces of them following Chen Qingzhi bravely forward, so he knew very well what it would mean if the lower reaches of the Luliang River fell into the hands of the Northern Zhou Army.
If the Northern Zhou army cuts off the lower reaches of the Luliang River, the Nanchen army that goes forward will be cut off from its retreat. At that time, what Wu Mingche and Xiao Mohe will have to face is not the threat to the food route, but the problem of being alone. No matter what
Neither of them can allow themselves to leave Nanchen's main army here, so Nanchen will inevitably end up with a breakout battle or even a disastrous defeat.
"I originally thought we could hide far away, but I didn't expect that we would be involved in this chaotic battle early." Li Cheng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Fifty years of hard work and fifty years of hiding are all in vain in the end.
Mr. Song turned around slowly while leaning on his cane and said nothing.
And Li Cheng looked silently at the vast mountains in the distance.
In fact, he has figured out what Mr. Song wants to say, or he knows it very well.
After all, there is no way to solve the problem by escaping. The only best way to solve the problem of conflicts in troubled times is to unify the world.
But neither Li Cheng nor Mr. Song have this ability now. Even they and Chen Qingzhi fifty years ago did not have this ability. Therefore, they could only escape and escape for fifty years.
However, after fifty years of escaping, I still haven’t escaped.
As Mr. Song said, if the Northern Zhou Dynasty really wanted to go here to penetrate the Luliang River and outflank the Nanchen army's retreat, it would be useless even if a small "strategist" fell into their hands.
Everyone who knows this only knows the word "death".
As a long-established general in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and shouldering the pressure of only winning but not losing in this battle, Wang Gui would not care about the life or death of one of his subordinates.
Footsteps sounded in a hurry, and a young man who was on guard at the bottom of the mountain ran over out of breath: "It's not good, something serious is going to happen!"
Li Cheng and Mr. Song both turned around suddenly. Zheng Qing hurriedly led two people to greet him: "What happened? Why are you so panicked?!"
"Soldiers, so many soldiers!" The young man said incoherently, pointing at the foot of the mountain with panic written on his face.
"It's really here." Li Cheng took a breath.
Mr. Song grabbed his sleeve and said, "It's too late to say anything else now. Let's go quickly and hide in the back mountains. These northern barbarians will never let us go."
"Go, go quickly!" Li Cheng nodded and immediately shouted to Zheng Qing, "Send someone to go to the back mountain quickly and let everyone hide!"
Zheng Qing also came to his senses at this time and nodded hurriedly.
And just below the mountain, the bamboo forest shook violently, and the black soldiers and horses passed through the road below the mountain like a wave, and a full thousand soldiers spread out and rushed straight up the hillside towards the village. No one knew where these unexpected troops came from.
It came out of nowhere, but it is certain that they did not intend to leave any survivors on either side.
Everyone who sees this will only die.
And just as Mr. Song had speculated before, the killings of those bandits were not just to disturb Nanchen's rear and spy on the food routes, but to clear the two wings for the army's sneak attack.
It's a pity... It's a pity that Li Cheng and the others understood it too late.
In fact, even if they had known it earlier, it would have been of no use. In front of the overwhelming Northern Zhou army, they, number 100, were just like ants and could be crushed to death with one kick.
"By the way, Ah Qing!" Li Cheng walked away from the village and shouted to Zheng Qing, "Send a smarter person to find him along the road down the mountain from Xin Chen and tell him
I’ll tell him more about the situation here...”
Zheng Qing and Mr. Song both looked at Li Cheng in surprise.
The wind blew Li Cheng's sleeves, and the old man's beard and hair were all flabby: "Ask him not to come back. Just remember to take revenge. Never come back!"
