Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1687 The Battle of Shangdang Sixteen
A round of red sun rose, and the light of the rising sun covered the emperor.

on the hill.

The entire mountain is steep, and the more it goes up, the more rugged it is, and there are very few forests and trees above the slope, and most of them are full of rocks, which are steep and difficult to climb.

"How's the situation down the mountain?"

At the position back from the cliff, there is a small flat land, where the Yan army rested for a while when there were less than [-] quiet people left.

Ju Yi, the general, was a little tired, so he sat directly on a rock and touched his waist. The pain made him turn pale.

No matter how good your kung fu is, you are afraid of being shot by random arrows. After all, if you can dodge one arrow, you may not be able to dodge all the arrows.

He was not wounded by the enemy general.

But was shot by the flow.

The injury wasn't too serious, but he didn't have time to heal and bled too much, so his physical strength was exhausted, and now less than [-]% of his combat power was left.

"The Ming army stationed troops at the foot of the mountain, and there was no attack. The mountainside is full of rocks. In terms of terrain, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. They should not dare to attack so quickly!"

At this time, the judge was a little embarrassed, the battle armor on his body was torn, the robe was also very messy, and the sword at his waist was gone. If it wasn't for the death of the ranger soldiers around him, he might have been damaged by the battlefield.

In this battle, they lost terribly.

"But it won't last long!"

The judge said in a low voice: "General, I have looked around. This is a lonely mountain. Only the front of the mountain can go up and down. The strange rocks on both sides are rugged, and they cannot march. There is a [-]-meter cliff behind. They just need to stay at the bottom of the mountain. It can starve us to death and put us on the mountain!"

He looked around, and added: "I'm afraid I didn't starve to death, I will die of thirst first, there is no water source on the mountain, we can't last two days!"

He said this in a positive way. In fact, they may not be able to last a day. After the battle, there is still not enough water, and the physical strength of the soldiers will be exhausted quickly.

At that time, there is no need to fight at all, and they will die.

"Hahaha!"

Ju Yi suddenly laughed, with a sad smile: "Thinking that I was the number one general in Hebei in the past, and I was fearless in all over the world, but I never thought that one day I would lose so terribly!"

He was convinced of the defeat. The strength of the Ming army was not only due to conspiracy and tricks, but also because of its strength. After the battle was won, he didn't have too many complaints.

The Ming army ambushing in front of them must have come from the south. If they want to avoid them, they have to go over mountains and mountains.

Being able to walk in front of them and ambush them within such a time, the Ming army's mobility is enough to show that they are strong.

"General, maybe..." The examiner glanced at Ju Yi, and there was something he wanted to say, but he couldn't say it.

Scholars, after all, have some courtesy, righteousness and shame.

One defeat after another.

They still have a chance to win it back.

But if they surrender again and again, they will have no chance of gaining a foothold in the world, and they will even be recorded in the history. That is not a good reputation, it must be a bad reputation.

"Go and rest for a while!"

Ju Yi waved his hand and said helplessly.

"Yes!"

The judge did not force him, he went to a nearby piece of troubled times and sat down, and then he checked himself, there were not many injuries on his body, but in this environment, there is no medicine, if there is inflammation and pus, it is a big problem Immortal Luo couldn't even save her.

He has no other choice now, so he can only wrap it with some cloth strips, waiting for Ju Yi's final decision.

At this moment, Ju Yi is hesitant.

Surrender is not as simple as he said, not how loyal he is to Liu Bei, but once they surrender, they will bear this shame for the rest of their lives.

Isn't it just to live with this face in life?

Now he has to make a choice between this face and his own life.

Even this choice may not be able to save his life. Even if he surrendered, whether the Ming army would accept his surrender is another matter.

He thought for a while, but he didn't make a decision. Finally, he asked the guards to bring Han Nian up.

Han Nian didn't run, it's not that he couldn't run, in the midst of a chaotic battle, he could actually run, but he didn't run because he wanted to complete this task and build up his military exploits.

Seeing Ju Yi again, Han Nian's eyes darkened a bit: "General Ju Yi, I haven't arrived yet, will it be so soon?"

"Are you trying to ridicule a certain family?"

Suddenly, a burst of anger ignited in Ju Yi's heart. Huluo Pingyang was bullied by dogs. He was a dignified general, but he ended up in such a situation, which is deplorable and lamentable.

"Taunt?"

Han Nian shook his head, and said softly, "No, I'm just feeling a little confused. The situation is changing so fast that even I'm a little surprised!"

"Humph!"

Ju Yi snorted coldly, and said: "A certain family lost, but don't forget, your life is still in my hands. Even if I die, I can take you to die with me!"

"It doesn't matter!"

Han Nian was actually very scared, but at this time he must not show any fear, he had to be frank, he had to act like he didn't care, so that Ju Yi could feel that his life and death had no meaning at all.

He smiled and said: "It would be considered lucky if we could die together on this battlefield with General Ju Yi, the number one general in Hebei. Think about life and death!"

"Is there really someone so fearless?" Ju Yi couldn't believe it, he drew his sword out of its sheath, and the blade slashed across at a very fast speed, like a flash of silver light.

Han Nian shuddered, a chill emerged from the bottom of his heart, and instinctive fear emerged.

"Hahaha!"

Ju Yi laughed loudly, and the blade stopped within a hair's distance from Han Nian's neck, exactly, which was enough to show that he had mastered martial arts.

He smiled at Han Nian and said, "You are not so tough, you are also afraid of death!"

"Fear of life and death is an instinct!"

Han Nian quickly cleared up his mood. Just now he was really scared to piss. Fortunately, he has a stronger mental quality, otherwise he would be ashamed if he really pissed out.

He calmed down, looked at Ju Yi, and said, "Naturally, I am afraid of death, and I don't want to die. I want to make contributions, and I want to honor my ancestors. My parents are still alive, and my brothers and sisters are also looking forward to my return. How can I be willing?" Die here!"

"Then you still provoke this general like this?" Ju Yi said coldly: "You don't think that this general really dare not kill you, do you?"

"I didn't intend to provoke the general, but I have something to say!" Han Nian regained his composure: "I represent General Zhang Liao, the general of the Ming Dynasty. How can General Ju Yi underestimate him? I'd rather die than be weak!"

"How courageous!"

Ju Yi had to admit that Han Nian was a person who liked him. He was afraid of death, but he was not.

"I have already fallen into such a situation. As long as the Ming army surrounds me, I will surely die. Do I still have the right to surrender?" Ju Yi asked Han Nian seriously.

"Have!"

Han Nian said: "General Ju Yi is a famous general after all. Any famous general in the world has the value of living. If General Ju Yi surrenders, the general will definitely accept it!"

He looked around again, and said: "Although the general's main force is destroyed, those Yan troops are not elite. I'm afraid they are on the mountain now, and they are the direct descendants of the general. Let's go to the camp first!
"Going to the camp first is one of the elites in the world. This is the capital of the general's ability to live and work!"

Han Nian said firmly.

Among the armies of the world, Xian Deng is definitely one of the best elites. He was the trump card number of Hebei in those days, and the tiger and leopard cavalry under the command of the Wei army, and the white horse righteous follower of the Yan army are all famous soldiers in the world.

The main force under Ju Yi's command had already been defeated, and he was still able to escape here instead of being besieged and killed on the top of Fanyunpo. It was because he climbed to the death battle first that gave him a chance to escape.

"But..." Han Nian paused.

"But what?" A sliver of hope ignited in Ju Yi's heart, but it was a little abrupt, and he couldn't help asking.

"However, if the general surrenders, it will be difficult to be reused!"

Han Nian said: "You first rebelled against Yuan Benchu ​​and returned to Yan, and now you have surrendered to my Ming army. No matter how I think about the general, the people in the world will probably not think highly of the general, even the top general, and they will not think that the general can be used by our army! "

Ju Yi's face was livid.

Why did he want to do this, but choosing the wrong path in life is helpless, and he makes mistakes again and again.

"It's not impossible!"

Han Nian said again.

"Say!" Ju Yi narrowed his eyes.

"Battle!"

Han Nian said calmly: "General Ju Yi probably doesn't understand the rules of our Ming army. At the beginning of the establishment of the Ming army, regardless of the poor family, no matter what the origin, there are only two points. The first is the military law. The military law is strict. Regardless of What was it before, as long as you join the Ming army, you will respect the military law, and if you don't respect the military law, you will be decisive, and the second..."

Han Nian's eyes burst into a bright light: "That is to judge heroes by military merit. Those who have military merit can lead the army. If we have military merit, even the generals and the Privy Council will not be able to suppress us!"

"Military merit?"

Ju Yi was a little puzzled: "Now I'm just a sleepy beast, how can I get military merit?"

"It depends on whether General Ju Yi is willing or not!"

Han Nian said in a low voice: "Among the Shangdang, the generals are not alone!"

"You asked me to betray Yan Jun?"

Ju Yi glared angrily.

"Betrayal or meritorious service, you decide for yourself!" Han Nian shrugged.

Ju Yi was silent.

He didn't want to betray anyone, because once the habit of betraying was formed, there was no way to stop it, but now, he was facing a situation that he couldn't stop himself.

"Zhang Yide leads the army to help me, if I do it, wouldn't it be..." Ju Yi gritted his teeth.

"General Ju Yi!"

Han Nian spoke again: "You are under the age of surrendering Yanjun. If there is any friendship between you and Zhang Yide, it can't be said. Besides, in terms of loyalty, it may not be you. Whether you save others or save yourself, it is up to you." There is a choice!"

He also admired his own brainstorming lobbying.

At this time, Ju Yi was already a certainty. If Zhang Fei could be taken down with the help of Ju Yi, then Shangdang would be completely stable.

"Let me think about it!"

Ju Yi gritted his teeth.

"Row!"

Han Nian said, "Let me go down the mountain first!"

"If you go and don't return, what should you do!"

"Hahaha!"

Han Nian laughed and said: "If I go and not return, the general is nothing more than one less person to be buried with him. If I can return, the general will have another way to survive. Can this business be done?"

"Heart!"

Ju Yi turned his heart to one side, at this point, he already had the heart to surrender, and he needed to take a gamble, so the one who should give in should still give in.

He needed Han Nian as a bridge to reach an agreement with the Ming army. Otherwise, even if he surrendered, he couldn't believe it. I'm afraid he would be beheaded if he didn't get close to the Ming army.

………………

After Han Nian went down the mountain, Ju Yi called the judge again, and then told him Han Nian's proposal.

The judge had a complicated expression: "That is to say, he wants us to defeat Zhang Yide's army?"

"Han Nian means that!"

Ju Yidao: "Now that we are defeated, we are approaching with a defeated body. Perhaps Zhang Yide has no place to attack. If we attack from the flanks and break through the middle battalion, we will surely be able to break through the main battalion. When the Ming army leader fights with all his strength, Zhang Yide will undoubtedly be defeated. !"

"But……"

The judge sighed, and said: "In this way, we are nailed to the pillar of shame. In this life, I am afraid that we can only rot on the ship of the Ming army, and this ship may not take care of everything. If they use us , crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, we are doomed!"

He had to have such worries. After all, Ming Jun, who he couldn't believe, had fought with Ming Jun for so many years, how could he have such trust.

"Why don't I worry!"

Ju Yi smiled wryly: "But now, we still have other ways to go. If we put down our weapons and surrender, life and death will be hard to tell. I'm afraid you and I will have no way out in the future. Who can trust us!"

"The general intends to agree?" the judge asked back.

"do not know!"

Ju Yi said: "The conditions he gave are good conditions, but I don't know whether I should accept them, and what you said is not false. If we are used by them and then slaughtered by them, then we will not only die, There is no point in dying, if so, I would rather have a bloody battle, at least die with dignity!"

The judge was also silent. Whoever does not want to live, he also wants to survive. In this troubled world, people who want to die are still a minority.

The most important point is that neither he nor Ju Yi has any loyalty to the country of Yan. It was for the sake of survival at the beginning, and now it is understandable to choose the master again.

"If I'm willing to take a gamble, is Zhengnan willing to follow suit?" Ju Yi asked the judge.

"Ha ha!"

The judge smiled wryly: "I'm afraid I have no other way to go. Looking around the world, is there still a place for me to live and work!"

He can only survive if he is close to Ju Yi. As a scholar, if he has support, he is not afraid of generals, but now he has no support.

This is troubled times.

In troubled times, civil servants and military generals are very important, but sometimes, scholars who have no power to restrain themselves have no way to survive independently.

"I still have the ambition to be brave in the world, and I don't want to die of old age and sickness. If it is my destiny to die in battle, then I am willing to obey this destiny!"

Ju Yi's soft voice had a touch of heaviness: "I don't have many choices, either die in battle on this nameless mountain, or gamble the future with my reputation!"

After a while, he added another sentence: "I, I don't want to die yet!"

So he has to gamble with his life.
