Several generals and generals of the Eru Department knelt down in unison.

A trace of despair poured into Zhong Ping's heart. He got it.

The worst, the worst he could think of, happened. The army collapsed, the Lord died in battle, this army is over! His right-hand man has both fallen, the Xiongnu grassland, is there any hope! ? Zhong Ping heard the news of the collapse of the main force, although panic, but not desperate. After all, there are tens of thousands of his generals who can reorganize the army. Then fight against Zhao Cheng's prairie wolf to form a team. Who will kill the deer is still unknown. He also planned to discuss with Zhong Ting and Erlu, and transfer to Hexi... I didn't expect that in less than half an hour, bad news would come one after another. Only then did he know that these two generals were both Martyrdom for your own failure!

(bafe) "Lord...the letter..." The guard trembled to remind Zhongping that a letter was placed beside Erlu's bed.

When Zhong Ping took it, he realized that his hands were shaking badly.

"My lord:

In the battle of the grasslands, our army was crushed, and General Zhong Ting died. Erlu wanted to apologize in person and then die. But there is no face to meet the lord, no face to face the grassland, no face to face the Xiongnu god. Just die here. Can't die on the battlefield, but die in the military camp, I feel very guilty!

In the battle of the grasslands, the fallen army used extremely powerful weapons, which could launch explosive weapons at long distances. It has a much longer range than a crossbow, and is powerful enough to explode. Our army has been fighting for days, and encountered hail again. It was already exhausted, and it was attacked at night. The army was in chaos and its formation collapsed. Because of the blessing of this weapon, the combat effectiveness of the fallen army has been greatly increased, and the cavalry attack will be carried out after the explosion. General Zhong Ting insisted on commanding at the scene, and ordered me to immediately lead the remaining soldiers away. I begged again and again, and General Zhongting repeatedly ordered that Erlu could only lead the remaining soldiers to evacuate first. According to the reports of the remaining soldiers and the observation post, General Zhong Ting committed suicide on the observation post. The fallen army buried his corpse along with my other Xiongnu soldiers as "the tomb of the soldiers who died in battle", without the head.

The minister is guilty! Sin deserves death! Failed to persuade General Zhong Ting to evacuate together.

Although the minister knew that his crime deserved ten thousand death, but there were still tens of thousands of his subordinates. Once the minister died, the remnants would be scattered. If the remnants are scattered, I have lived up to General Zhongting's entrustment, and I will face General Zhongting without face under Jiuquan..."

Before reading the letter, Zhong Ping was already in tears. His younger brother is quite stubborn, and he understands it. With such an army collapsed, how could he not understand what this younger brother was thinking! Confused! Confused! Now that the two grand prizes have both died, this is the biggest loss!

"Master..." The generals and guards around him were quite panicked and said tremblingly. After all, few people will have the opportunity to see Zhongping cry.

Zhongping turned his head to look at these generals, and had the same idea as Erru. There are only some middle and low-level generals, and a few middle and high-level generals. What about those generals? What about the stubborn Zhong Ting? What about the brave and loyal Eru? What about the ingenious Jesso? What about those people? He disappeared one by one from his side. Now when he is in pain, when he is eager to think about what to do in the future, there is not a decent general around him! This is the real defeat!

"My younger brother has always told me that if I can die in battle and be buried in the same grave with the soldiers, I will be satisfied." brother's request".

No one dared to speak, and the air was suffocating. .

Chapter 189: The Final Responsibility

"Once the minister dies, the remnants will disperse. If the remnants disperse, they will live up to the entrustment of General Zhongting, and they will have no face to face General Zhongting under Jiuquan. Therefore, although the minister must die, he must wait for the lord to come before he can leave with confidence. In this way, I live up to the entrustment of General Zhong Ting.

After the Battle of the Prairie, there was only one formed army in our department, which was the reserve team in charge of the emergency situation in the north. This team was well-equipped according to our army's custom when the fallen army attacked, so it was able to escape the scene intact. This organic army is 30,000 people and three cavalry teams. In addition, after the heavy artillery fire of the fallen army, the remaining soldiers were brutally chopped and killed, or they were surrounded and annihilated and surrendered. Only 10,000 to 20,000 remnants followed and ran out. In order to escape the pursuit of the fallen army, our army marched for three days, day and night, and got rid of the pursuit of the fallen army. Many of the skirmishers were left behind, and now the skirmishers have been organized into a cavalry corps of more than 10,000 men.

At present, there are more than 40,000 people in my remnant. There are many animals here, and the water and grass are abundant. Our troops stationed here for several months can be safe. If the army is mobilized, one month's ration can also be collected. ~”

Zhongping read these words, as if Eru was in front of him, reporting to him. It's still the familiar style, plain, pragmatic, thick and thin, and arranges things in an orderly manner. This almost annihilated team, tens of thousands of people escaped by chance. Should have panicked and completely lost his fighting spirit. But now they are fully on their feet, full of food and drink, full of energy, vigilant, and ready for large-scale combat at any time. That's right, Erlu did it, and he didn't live up to Zhong Ting's entrustment to him.

But such a capable general, he has worked hard for more than ten years to cultivate and support the generals, why did he leave him so decisively! Zhong Ping thought and sighed again.

"In my opinion, the left and right parts of the Xiongnu and the royal court have been completely occupied by the fallen army. The fallen army has implemented martial law here. Now our army is weak, and I am afraid that it will not be able to compete head-on with the fallen army again. Eru's humble opinion: please lord Immediately use General Jesso to guide our army in the future. Join forces with Zhao Cheng's prairie wolf army. In this way, there is a chance to carry out a counter-offensive! If the situation is still unfavorable, you can go west and enter Hexi, and then plan Good policy.

Long live the big single of Zhongping! Hun God bless us! "

The thin cloth letter slid gently to the ground. The generals were still surrounded and bowed their heads, and no one dared to pick them up and look at them, because they were not the main generals and had no such qualifications.

Zhong Ping's eyes turned a little colder. Perhaps Eru is right, or another angle of the collapse of the grassland battle also more or less shows that Jesso's foresight and his strategic analysis are correct. But it was never possible for Jesso to come back. Because according to the report from Zhao Cheng, Yesuo was defeated and captured, and has been sent to the Central Plains. Even finding him would never prove his loyalty. He Zhongping would not take the risk of handing over his killer coyote army back to Jesso.

The soldiers may think the same as Eru, wanting Jesso to come back, and when Jesso comes back, they are relieved and the military heart is stable. Otherwise, although Mingli did not say it, the soldiers still had doubts about the high-level decision-making. Zhong Ping was searching in his mind to see if he could replace Jesso and stabilize the military.

As for the other two opinions, Zhong Ping unreservedly agreed. His heart was finally relieved, as if he had already discussed with the general, although this was the general's last suicide note. In the suicide note, the general who had followed him for many years told him all his thoughts and thoughts without reservation, and reported everything truthfully. It's the last duty. Zhong Ping thought, feeling very sad. At the same time, there is a sense of panic of losing his right arm, as if his confidence is not so strong.

"Thick burial." Zhong Ping ordered in a low voice.

"Understood..." The guard agreed, but he still looked hesitant, as if he had something to say.

"What's the matter?" Zhong Ping keenly captured his expression.

"General Zhao Cheng... is back." The guard said, as if Zhongping asked him, he was relieved.

"Zhao Cheng? Shouldn't he be in Hexi? What's going on?" Zhong Ping groaned in his heart. Because that ominous premonition came again. Impossible... This guy holds the most elite and most powerful army in the world. Thinking of this, it was reassuring to think of his own prairie wolf fighting strength, Zhong Ping calmed down a little, and said with a cold face, "Call him here."

·0 for flowers

The guard agreed and went out. The guard went out on the front foot, and Zhao Cheng came in on the back foot.

When Zhong Ping raised his head, he felt a little chill in his heart. Zhao Cheng was disheveled and was quite embarrassed, with a look of frustration on his face. "Why did you come back? How's the battle in Hexi?" Zhong Ping tried to calm down and asked coldly, but his voice couldn't stop trembling.

Zhao Cheng knelt down with a plop, and when he raised his head, he was already bursting with tears, sobbing: "The Prairie Wolf Legion is against the water, and Hexi has all fallen!"

This short sentence was like a thunderbolt from the blue, which shocked Zhong Ping in a daze.

..0

"You said... What did you say?" Zhong Ping even felt his whole body tremble, his upper and lower teeth were fighting, and his eyes were black.

"The Prairie Wolf Legion is against the water! It's basically obeying Luochen's orders! The Luo army occupied all Hexi, and I heard that they also killed all the Xiongnu prisoners!"

Zhao Cheng said that he secretly watched Zhong Ping's reaction. Obviously, this sentence hit Zhong Ping a lot. In fact, Zhao Cheng was the first person to know that the situation was extremely serious. Because he fled back from the defeat in Hexi, he soon heard the news of the disastrous defeat of the Zhongting Department, and he knew at that time that the situation was about to end. As soon as he arrived at the camp, the sentinel told him that Zhongting and Erlu both died for the country, which shocked him, but it was still expected. If it wasn't for his own luck, he fainted at the critical moment of falling dust, would he be able to run past the wolf? Probably killed already. In the event of an army like the Fallen Army, the death of the main general is a high probability event.

Zhao Cheng felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, Zhong Ping buried his head in his arms and didn't say a word. He hurriedly crawled over to Eru and began to sob, expressing his deep nostalgia for the heroic suicide general.

"Someone! Drag Zhao Cheng out and execute him!" Zhong Ping suddenly spoke coldly. It's terrifying to still be so grim after such a big blow. This was the first reaction of the people around them, and they were even more shocked when they realized the meaning of this sentence. Lord Zhongping is going to kill the general! .

Chapter one hundred and ninetieth tent talk

The guards were stunned and stood there bewildered. If it was someone else, drag it out and stab it, but this is a general! The top general of the Zhongping Group's platoon and one of Zhongping's right-hand men. Is this Lord Zhongping going to cut off his own arm?

"Didn't you hear it! Drag it out! Slash!" Zhong Ping finally stopped using a stern tone, but replaced it with a hysterical roar. This furious roar made the guards tremble with fright, and everyone's knees softened, and they knelt down in unison.

Zhao Cheng was also stunned. Thinking about it, when did you ever think that Zhongping would execute him? Will Zhongping execute a general like himself? How can there be such a crazy idea, how can there be such a crazy thing? So what has he been running around for these days? To die?

"Master Four Two Seven!" Zhao Cheng burst into tears, "Master! Master think twice! Please think twice, Master!" He began to panic, his own life was about to die!

The frightened guard knew that Zhong Ping's order could not be disobeyed, so he had to drag Zhao Cheng shiveringly. Unexpectedly, Zhao Cheng's strength was amazing, and he refused to go out. Second, he shouted: "Master think twice! Master think twice!" As if he could only say this sentence.

"Da Chanyu..." Someone suddenly lifted the curtain and came in. The voice was calm and powerful. Although it was not high, it was extremely penetrating. Everyone couldn't help but put down what they were doing, and looked at that person with their wild thoughts in their hearts. General Shah.

"Shaha..." Zhong Ping raised his head and looked at him, "Are you here?"

Zhao Cheng seemed to have found the savior at once, crawled over and grabbed Shaha's leg: "The old general saved me! The old general saved me! The old general was there at the time and can testify for me! It is indeed the wolf army that released water, and we have this. Great defeat, otherwise I would have taken the heads of Luo Chen and Lu Bu!"

Zhong Ping regained his stern look, and said coldly to Jesso: "Oh? The old general was there at the time?"

"Yes." Shaha made no secret of it.

"Then please tell the old general what's going on?" Zhong Ping seemed to be interested. God knows how much anger he is inside. The killer that he has cultivated for many years, the last guardian of the grassland regime. Give this Zhao Cheng less than a month, and he will be killed! Hexi is also lost! How could there be a face to see him! All the original plans were in vain, the strategic depth of the Xiongnu, the power of the grasslands, all of a sudden disappeared! Extreme disappointment hides extreme anger. Maybe Zhong Ping really wants to kill today, no matter what general or right-hand man you are.

But Shah was unusually calm. Only such a person is a person who is truly evenly matched with Zhongping. Zhongping's powerful aura and majesty could not affect him either. Looking at the entire grassland, only Shaha can do it. Only Shaha is the general of the Qiang Canal who truly possesses highly respected qualifications and extremely rich combat experience.

Shaha calmly glanced at Zhongping, and then glanced at the guards around him. Zhong Ping instantly understood. He said coldly to the middle and low-level officers and guards surrounded by the tent: "You all go out, and be alert about 20 meters away from the tent."

"Understood." These people were obviously relieved, and staying by the furious Zhong Ping's side was obviously not a bad thing, and they were afraid of losing their lives if they were not careful.
