Chapter 138 Volume 3 Man Jianghong
Zhao Chao said: "We must get rid of them all, or we will fight with our backs here to protect the second sister and the female relatives from crossing the river, and go to death vigorously, so that we will not be in vain as men, and come to this world once."
"No!" You Miao said decisively: "Don't give up until the last moment."
Ping Xi, who went to explore the way, took care of the female relatives and crossed the river. After riding his horse back, he said, "I found a ruined temple ahead."
Zhao Chao and You Miao looked at each other, and both had ideas in their hearts.
"Use the ruined temple to ambush." Zhao Chao said: "We still have arrows in our hands, and we have hardly wasted them along the way."
You Miao and Zhao Chao hit it off almost immediately, and he replied: "I'll take people to set up an ambush, and you lead people to wait in the backyard. Let's set another trap, pretending to be our own people and killing them."
"That's a good idea!" Zhao Chao immediately said, "Let's arrange it separately and try to catch them all."
15 people versus 50 people.
You Miao didn't have the guts to fight head-on - the Han Chinese were innately unable to fight the Tatars trained by traveling outside the Great Wall.Although soldiers are not tired of deceit, the Tatars have no brains.
To fight a war is actually to deceive people. If you deceive the enemy to the ground or even to death, you will win.
There are rolling hills in front of them. They follow the road and pay attention to the terrain while walking. Both roads are forests, which are easy to ambush. You Miao said: "Tie the horse rope here, and ambush five more archers."
Zhao Chao said, "That's right, who is going to feign surrender?"
You Miao said, "I'll go."
Zhao Chao changed his face and said, "No! You let Li Yan go. He is wounded, and the Tatars are more likely to believe it."
At this moment, someone from above shouted again: "Third Highness! Come and see!"
You Miao and Zhao Chao climbed up to the high ground. At nightfall, a ray of purple light shone on the mountains on the horizon. At the creek they had just crossed, the Tatars fought with someone. Some people were killed and their bodies fell down. In the river, dye the river water a dark color.
"It should be the Hu people who came after us." Zhao Chao said, "Did you find out? There were nearly a hundred Tatars chasing us at the beginning, and there were fewer and fewer people along the way. Most of them were also killed by Hu people."
You Miao frowned and said, "But aren't the Tatars and Huren allied?"
Zhao Chao: "The relations between the several clans outside the Great Wall are not solid, and some have formed feuds. After so many years of killing and killing, it is difficult to tell the grievances."
You Miao asked, "Going to help?"
Zhao Chao said: "Don't, if it falls into the hands of a barbarian, it will not be easy. Let's see first, what if there is no need to fight? Look! Another one died!"
They watched for a while, the light was too dim, and they couldn't see which side was killing people, nor could they see the specific battle process, until night fell and the sky filled with stars rose, and they could no longer see it.
"How many people are there at the end?" You Miao asked.
Zhao Chao said: "It's less than twenty, I can't remember, that's great! We have a great chance of winning now!"
You Miao murmured: "I hope they run away, but forget it...the battle is over."
The Tatar pursuers chased here, and it was impossible to give up. Zhao Chao discussed with You Miao for a while, canceled the previous plan, let everyone rest temporarily in the ruined temple, lit a fire overnight, and then went outside the ruined temple. Bury archers on the road.
They had finished eating all their food, and when the cold spring came, the weather became a bit cold and gloomy, and the teenagers shivered and huddled by the fire.
"Where's Li Yan?" You Miao sat down and found that Li Yan was gone.
"Going to dig out the mouse hole." One person replied, "Find something to eat."
You Miao waited for a long time, but there was no signal from Zhao Chao outside. I'm afraid the Tatars would not go up the mountain tonight.He was leaning against the wall, his stomach growling with hunger, he had been on the run for several days, and he had no time to hunt. He had been hungry for almost twelve hours, and he was almost unable to hold on anymore.
Zhao Chao came back, threw down his helmet, smelled sour all over, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Maybe I won't come tonight, I left two people on guard, let's go to sleep first."
You Miao nodded, thinking about finding some bark to eat, so he could act tomorrow, but he was hungry and cold, and didn't want to get up... forget it.
In the middle of the night, he smelled some aroma—in the ruined temple, a few teenagers gathered together and cooked things in broken bowls.It was okay if there was no food, but when the aroma came, You Miao felt like she was about to die.After a while, Li Yan's voice over there said: "To the Third Highness."
A bowl of rice soup was brought over, Zhao Chao glanced at it and asked, "Where did you get the rice?"
Someone replied: "Li Changshi took it out of a rat's nest."
Zhao Chao took it, and there were only such a bowl of food for more than [-] people. He passed it to You Miao and said, "Eat, you can kill when you are full."
You Miao swallowed, took the bowl, and was watched by everyone, so she could barely drink the porridge. However, as soon as the porridge ate, You Miao forgot everything in the world, and immediately came alive, gulping it down nearly half.When the warm rice porridge passes through the throat, there is a sense of resurrection. You Miao only feels that in these years, he has never encountered food that tastes better than this bowl of porridge.
He drank half of the bowl and handed the bowl to Zhao Chao, but Zhao Chao shook his head, patted the back of his hand, and motioned him to look.
You Miao caught a glimpse of Li Yan and others looking at them.The eyes were very complicated, and when You Miao saw it, several people turned their heads away.
"Ziqian." Zhao Chao whispered, "You remember it for me."
"What?" You Miao asked blankly.
Zhao Chao: "I'm only for you, and I'm sincere."
You Miao was shocked for a moment, Zhao Chao patted him on the shoulder, got up and said, "I'll go and see if I can kill a rabbit and eat it."
After Zhao Chao left, You Miao understood the meaning of his words. Both father and son Zhao Yu and Zhao Min were taken away by the Tatars. Now Zhao Chao is the only one who can really speak and is qualified.If you go back to the south and the aristocratic families who fled south have not embraced the new emperor, then Zhao Chao will be the emperor if he does his part!
what does this mean?
No, the current war situation is worrisome, and Jiangnan is still in danger, but along the way, You Miao gradually discovered that the attitude of Li Yan and others towards Zhao Chao has changed a lot.Maybe he, You Miao, was the last person to realize this problem.If everyone is safe and sound and returns to Jiangnan, You Miao will really be under one person and above ten thousand people.
It's hard to say whether he can survive, You Miao couldn't help laughing at himself.Country, mountains and rivers, home, and his Jiangbo Villa... If he had to change it, he would rather use Jiangbo Villa and his career in exchange for Li Zhifeng's company.However, the land in the north is devastated, if he followed Li Zhifeng back to Quan Rong at this time, he would leave tens of thousands of people and the country at the time of the collapse of the country.
He is willing to give up the glory and wealth, but he is determined not to sit back and watch his hometown be trampled by the iron hooves of the Tatars.
The fire was crackling and burning, and You Miao gradually became sleepy. He leaned against the corner of the ruined temple. When he woke up again, he found that Zhao Chao had returned from his patrol and threw several cloth bags on the ground. Inside were dried mutton and leather bags carried by the Tatars liquor.
