Chapter 231 Heroes 1

General Liao's approach was to attract the attention of the thorns, but it was not intentional. If it was done too obviously, it would not be able to achieve that effect.

It is said that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Similarly, General Liao and others, who are already determined to die, are naturally not afraid of death. Even after understanding that he and others may be buried in 5,000 watts and stabbing people, he still did not hesitate at all when making this decision. When Jiang Lang told him that plan, General Liao felt that even if he died in battle, it would be worth it.

A thousand people took advantage of the night to run towards the originally scheduled place, but it was not complete. General Liao was also a person who had been fighting on the battlefield for many years. He knew how to attract the enemy and created an illusion that he and others seemed to be because they knew there were ambushes in front of him and retreated in a hurry. As for whether the Wassar was deceived, General Liao was not sure, but he also understood that it was not easy for Jiang Lang and others to find them. In this case, the Wassar, who had absolute military strength, would definitely choose to pursue him and others, and this was exactly what he needed.

General Liao's approach indeed attracted the attention of the Watshu people. At dusk the next day, the spy came back to report that the 5,000 people from Watshu were chasing him and others, and the distance was only a hundred miles away.

General Liao was overjoyed and understood that his plan had been successful. The Wassai people were attracted by him. He immediately ordered the soldiers to rest well, and then sent people to stare at the Wassai at the same time, so that the distance between the people on both sides was always within a hundred miles. Fortunately, everyone was all cavalry, and Wassai did not have any advantage in speed. However, the general of Wassai was not himself. He made full use of his advantage of large numbers. When one group of people was pursuing, a group of people were resting, while General Liao had no advantage at all.

In this situation of chasing you and I dared to chase each other, both sides chased each other on the vast grassland for five days. Finally, the soldiers of the Wats surpassed General Liao's team from another direction and formed a pincer attack on General Liao with the pursuers behind.

The news was reported to General Liao. When he learned about this situation, General Liao did not show a panic expression on his face, but said to the soldiers who sent the order: "Order everyone to get off the horse and rest and have a meal."

Then after the soldiers left, he turned over and got off the horse, took out the dry food from the horse's back, and slowly ate it. After a while, he raised his head, looked at Cao Jian who was still standing next to him, and smiled and said, "Why don't you eat something?"

"I can't eat it?"

Cao Jian replied, then sat down, sat cross-legged across from General Liao, and asked, "General is going to fight Wasai?"

General Liao did not answer, but asked lightly: "Are you scared?"

Cao Jian shook his head and said, "No, like the general, I am a person who has come back from the gate of hell. I have long forgotten what it feels like to die, but I don't understand why the general insists on being separated from the county horse? Then we will act as bait? If the general doesn't explain it clearly, I guess many brothers will die with their eyes closed even if they die in battle."

After saying that, Cao Jian looked straight at General Liao. Anyway, he was ready in his heart and didn't care about any punishment.

However, General Liao was not angry because he was at the top of his head, but put down the food in his hand, sighed slightly, and said, "You said, if we don't separate from the county horses, how many people can return to the Ming Dynasty under the 5kW sect army? Even if we can go back, are you saying that we have many brothers or those with the county horses?"

The number of people twice is also cavalry, and the difference between individual soldiers can be completely compensated by the number. In the case of a large army of five thousand, even if it is brave, it may be wiped out. Moreover, Cao Jian also knew in his heart that Jiang Lang's 1,000 people had an absolute advantage in strength compared to his own people. If he could return to the Ming Dynasty, there would not be many people on his side.

Seeing Cao Jian silent, General Liao said again: "It is precisely because I understand this that I decided to protect them. Although this cut off the brothers' path to life, even if a good man dies in the battlefield, he will have no regrets. What's more, there is still the future of the Ming Dynasty in the Junma!"

Cao Jian obviously didn't understand what this said. Just as he was about to ask, General Liao waved his hand and said, "Don't ask too much. I understand your feelings, but I have to trust me. I will not let you die in vain. There are only two thousand ambushers in front of him. If they can break through, it would be best if they can't break through. Eighteen years later, we will be a hero again!"

"General..."

Cao Jian was about to say, but was interrupted by General Liao's wave, and then he said, "Get the brothers together and say I'm going to say something. As you said, I can't let our brothers die inexplicably. Even if they die in battle, they will die inexplicably!"

Seeing General Liao's words so firmly, Cao Jian didn't say much and immediately gathered the team. After a while, the soldiers who had already eaten stood neatly in the grassland. The slanting sunset shone on their faces, giving them a faint golden light. Sweat fell down as their cheeks and merged into the grassland.

General Liao sorted out his armor and reached out to touch the knife marks on the armor. The armor had been following him for many years, and the morning wine was covered with countless knife marks. When outsiders looked at the armor, the armor was already in pieces. Now General Liao's eyes were as gentle as his close comrades-in-arms.

After a while, General Liao put down his hand and looked up. His soldiers had all gathered together. He waited for his words and took a few steps to walk in front of them. He looked at the soldiers who had been through life and death with him. He suddenly felt a little reluctant in his heart. At that moment, he knelt heavily on the ground without any reason, and then kowtowed respectfully to the soldiers.

Cao Jian and others who were standing in front were shocked. They did not expect General Liao to do such a move and said anxiously, "General..." and then came to help him.

General Liao, who was kneeling on the ground, stretched out his hand to stop Cao Jian and others from doing things, and said in a deep voice: "Don't help me!"

After saying that, he kowtowed three times respectfully.

Everyone stared at General Liao in a daze, not understanding why he was like this, but because General Liao had an order, no one dared to help him.

General Liao slowly started fighting and looked at the soldiers in front of him again. They had already looked tired on their faces. The wind and dining in the open for nearly a month had already made them look not much different from Huazi. The only thing was that their eyes were still shining with tenacity.

"I'm sorry to everyone!"

General Liao, who hesitated for a while, finally spoke, "In front of us, there were already two thousand tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile tile

The soldiers below were still like steel, not moving at all, and no other expression appeared on their faces.

General Liao paused and then said aloud: "Brothers and I have been living and dying for many years. I used to think that before, we would go back to accompany our wives and children without war. But everything was unpredictable. In the battle of Xuanfu, more than 20,000 brothers were detested on the battlefield, and we were the only ones left, but I still did not fulfill my ideas and took you on a road of no return. If I had not sent anyone to find the whereabouts of the county horses at the beginning, then we could quietly wait for the end of the war in the mountains and forests, and the court would not pursue us. But I did not do that, because I knew that the battle in Xuanfu was our shame. If we could not cleanse it, even if we died in battle, we would have no face to see the dead brothers!"

Speaking of this, General Liao was a little excited, and he unknowingly raised his voice slightly and said, "I don't want everyone to live a cowardly life. A man and a real man will die vigorously even if he dies. What do we soldiers do? We are not a soldier to join the army for the sake of making a living, but to defend our country, to protect the people of the Ming Dynasty and our wives and children. What's the fear of death in battle? Eighteen years later, we will still be a man!"

"Why should I lead the pursuers for the county horses? It's not his request, nor his command of his own status, but I voluntarily, because I saw a glimmer of hope in him, and at the same time I believe that it won't take long for the Ming soldiers like us to lose their lives because of frequent wars. Therefore, I also think that even if I, Liao, died in the battlefield, it's worth it!"

After saying that, General Liao looked at the soldiers in front of him again and shouted: "But this is just my own idea. Now we have led the pursuers away. I believe that Junma and others are safe. Our goal has been achieved. At the same time, there is no way out. Instead of compromise with those thorns and being a prisoner, it is better to do a battle vigorously and let them see our majesty. Of course, I don't force it. If there are brothers who don't want to, they can withdraw now and bring enough water and food to leave. Whether they can walk out of this grassland depends on your luck. Don't worry, no one will blame you. It is very difficult to get to this point. Everyone should cherish their lives."

As soon as General Liao finished his words, Cao Jian and others knelt down on one knee and cut the railway line: "See the general to the death!"

"See the general to the death!"
