Invincible son

Chapter 305 304 [Who is with me]

The death of Guo Rong meant that the general situation was over, and the Western Wu army could only leave a large number of siege equipment and retreat in embarrassment under the cover of Qingqi.

Pei Yue said to Wei Rui: "Take five hundred cavalry and follow them, and let them not retreat calmly. At the same time, be careful of the enemy's ambush."

Wei Rui nodded and said, "My lord, don't worry, I understand humblely."

Chen Xianda on the side showed envy. Although the Western Wu army is superior in numbers, its morale has dropped to the lowest point, and it can't even display any of its usual strength.At this time, leading the soldiers to pursue him can earn some credit, but he also understands that his character may not be suitable for this job, and he is not as mature and prudent as Wei Rui after all.

There was a mess on the battlefield, Pei Yue turned his head to look, and saw Qin Xian leading the crowd towards this side.

"Brother!" He hurried forward to meet him, and jumped off his mount when he was more than ten feet away.

"Brother Yue!"

Qin Xian had never been so excited like today. When he led five hundred cavalry around, he saw at a glance that the leader of this mysterious cavalry was Pei Yue.Although we haven't seen each other for two years and can only rely on letters, the friendship and tacit understanding have never faded away.He knew what Pei Yue was going to do, so he led the team forward without hesitation to block the Western Wu Qingqi who rushed back.

Looking at the warm smile on his face, Pei Yue felt sincere joy in his heart.

I still remember that the first time we met was at Pei Taijun's birthday banquet in the third year of Kaiping. At that time, Pei Yue was just a bastard who no one cared about, and Qin Xian and the other three were just silent sons of fallen generals.Times have changed, and now the former is the Imperial Envoy Viscount, and the latter is the commander of an army. The scene of being crowded and ignored at the banquet is long gone.

Their identities are changing and their experiences are constantly increasing, but even if they haven't seen each other for two years, the friendship between them is still deep.

Qin Xian stepped forward and put his arms around Pei Yue's shoulders, looked at his brother who was much taller than himself, and said with emotion: "I know you have come to Lingzhou, but I just thought that there would be no chance to meet each other, but I didn't expect that you would Appear here! Brother Yue, if you don't come today, we brothers may not have a chance to see you again."

Hearing his heavy words, Pei Yue also said a little moved: "Brother, what are you talking about? How can those people from West Wu hurt your life?"

Qin Xian smiled heartily, looked at the generals behind Pei Yue, and asked curiously, "Why did you appear here?"

Pei Yue laughed and said, "It's a long story."

Qin Xian patted him on the shoulder vigorously, and said: "Go back to the village and talk slowly, that boy Xue Meng misses you very much."

"Why am I not?" Pei Yue liked Xue Meng's straightforward temperament very much, and it would be very easy to deal with such a person.

He let the defeated soldiers of Sanzhai stay to destroy the siege equipment of the West Wu people, and cleaned the battlefield with the five hundred cavalry brought out by Qin Xian.In addition to weapons and arrows, the heads of Western Wu people are the most important evidence of military exploits, so they must be cut off and sealed with lime.This may seem too barbaric and cruel, but it is a very common action in the wars of this era. There are even some greedy troops who will cut off the enemy's head during the battle and hang it on their waists like hell demons .

As for the corpses whose heads had been cut off, the peasants in the village would come out and bury them to prevent a plague.

On the way back to the village, Pei Yue smiled and said, "Brother, these people are all my subordinates."

He briefly described the origin of Zang Fengwei, and then introduced Meng Longfu, Fu Hongzhi, and Chen Xianda in turn. Of course, he did not forget Wei Rui, who led the troops to monitor and harass the retreat of the Western Wu army, and finally pointed to Dong Da and said: "His name is Dong Da, an old man from Daokou Village. When the village fell, he escaped with hundreds of people."

Qin Xian slightly surprised and said: "You are Dong Da from Daokou Village?"

Dong Da looked a little unnatural, nodded and said: "Humble is Dong Da."

Qin Xian glanced at him again, then smiled and said, "He's a man."

Pei Yue knew in his heart that there might be a story in it, but Qin Xian didn't go on, so he didn't ask on the spot.

A group of people came to the east gate of Jiming Village, and they saw Xue Meng, who was as tall as a mountain, standing outside the gate from a distance.

"Brother Yue! Old Xue misses you!"

His voice was extraordinarily loud, but it also had an affectionate tone. Everyone couldn't help laughing, and Qin Xian even laughed and scolded: "This rascal is always out of shape."

Pei Yue didn't laugh, but was moved.

If the defenders of Jiming Village were not Qin Xian and Xue Meng, would he still take the risk to break through the enemy?
On the way here, Pei Yue had thought about this issue carefully. Before, he had eaten a thousand light cavalry from Western Wu in the north of Daokou Village, and then collected the defeated soldiers from the Three Villages. These things were not very risky, at least he could guarantee that he would retreat unscathed in case of danger.However, leading two thousand cavalry to break through the formation this time, any slight negligence will lead to extremely serious consequences.

His final answer was no.

So seeing Xue Meng's true feelings at this moment, he felt very relieved.

"Brother Xue, why haven't you seen you lose weight in the two years since you came to the border?" Pei Yueying stepped forward and teased with a smile.

Xue Meng touched his broad and shiny forehead, and said in a rough voice: "Who told me to have a good appetite? I haven't seen you for two years. Brother Yue, you are so promising now, don't forget my old Xue!"

Qin Xian frowned and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Pei Yue shook his head and said, "Brother, I think it's good for Brother Xue to be so frank."

Qin Xian was relieved in his heart, and he still reprimanded Xue Meng: "You idiot, if Brother Yue forgets you, will he give his life to save you today?"

Xue Meng scratched his head awkwardly and said: "Brother is right, I am a pig brain."

Pei Yue then briefly introduced his subordinates, and after meeting each other, they all entered the city together.

Walking into Jiming Village and coming to Xicheng, where the war was brutal, Pei Yue's expression became very solemn.

The soldiers of the defending army were collecting the corpses of their comrades, their blood was surging during the fight, and their hearts were full of excitement, so they didn't care too much.Calm down at this moment, looking at the familiar faces lying on the ground without breath, I can't help thinking that I had a fight with someone in this morning, and I talked to someone last night, and then the flood of memories can easily wash away People drown.

Some young soldiers couldn't control their emotions at all, and tears rolled down their faces in big drops.

Similar scenes happened everywhere on the city wall, and Pei Yue's heart would naturally be heavy when he saw this scene.

He felt he should do something.

"Come on, go to my place and rest for a while."

Qin Xian noticed that Pei Yue's mood was not right, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

Pei Yue turned to look at him, and said slowly: "Brother, there is something I want to discuss with you."

Qin Xian vaguely guessed what he wanted to say, smiled bitterly, then shook his head and said, "It's just... that's all, let's talk about it later."
