Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 155 Bloody Rebirth
What Zhang Yong said reminded everyone.

Liu He walked out quickly. When the Anmin Army soldiers who were sitting cross-legged on the ground saw him coming out, they all stood up.

Liu He waved his hand and motioned for them to sit down again.

He paced back and forth among the soldiers without saying a word, which made everyone confused.

Liu He walked over to a soldier who had a bandage on his right rib and squatted down.

"It's Hu Yi. Are you injured? How serious is your injury? Didn't we say that the injured can go back and rest and don't need to come to the assembly? Why are you here?"

Hu Yi is only 19 years old this year. He joined the local militia when he was 17 years old, so Liu He is quite familiar with him.

Hu Yi gritted his teeth, looking determined.

"It's just a minor injury, it's nothing. No one knows when those people will come back. Those of them who are seriously injured should rest, but I can still continue to fight!"

Liu He looked him straight in the eye and asked, "Aren't you afraid? They are so fierce and have no regard for life and death. So many of our brothers died in this battle. As far as I know, Zeng An, who grew up with you, died under their swords. Aren't you afraid of death?"

When talking about this, Hu Yi's eyes suddenly became bloodshot and his hands clenched into fists.

"Don't be afraid! Brother Zeng died to protect me from the knife. He only said one thing before he died, which was that I should avenge him, continue to kill enemies for him, defend our hometown, and protect our family and fellow villagers! I, Hu Yi, have suffered from poverty since I was a child. My father suffered a disaster when I was six years old. In order to leave the only food for me and my mother, he starved to death. He hoped that I could be successful and become a man!"

"Whether it's to protect my mother, or for my father and Brother Zeng's last wish, I can't be cowardly or afraid! So what if the enemy is fierce? I'm fiercer than them! This wound was left when I avenged Brother Zeng and dealt with the enemy soldier who killed him. If he wants to stab me, I will rush over and let him stab me. Even if he bites me, I will bite him to death!"

He became more and more excited, and his voice became louder and louder. The parade ground was empty, and his voice soon spread throughout the ground and reached everyone's ears.

Among the more than 2,000 Anmin troops around, some lowered their heads in thought, some looked ashamed, but most of them, like Hu Yi, clenched their hands and looked excited.

Liu He looked at everyone's reactions, then patted Hu Yi on the shoulder.

"Well done, you are worthy of being my brother Liu He! Your father and Zeng An would definitely be proud of you if they were still alive!"

Hu Yi nodded solemnly!
Liu He looked around and shouted loudly: "Although we defended the city in this battle, we lost many brothers. It was all my fault, Liu He! I apologize to everyone!"

After saying this, Liu He bowed and couldn't get up. The soldiers around him hurried forward to help him up, but were shouted away by Liu He.

"Mr. County Magistrate..."

Everyone was moved.

After a long time, Liu He stood up again.

"It won't be long before the enemy attacks the city again, perhaps tonight, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow. The bloody battle will be even more intense than today. Judging from our performance today, there will be more casualties among our brothers."

"As the magistrate of Langdiao County, Liu He should live and die with the county, but you don't have to do the same. Most of you have your own relatives and families. If you want to escape from the city with your family, it's not too late. I will prepare money and dry food for you. You can leave from the west gate at night tonight."

When these words were spoken, not only the soldiers, but even Guan Yu and his men were very surprised.

"Brother, this..."

Cheng Liang was about to ask a question but was stopped by Cui Jun. He shook his head at Cheng Liang, and Cheng Liang swallowed his words.

No one stood up in the training ground.

At this moment, a figure suddenly stood up, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

"County Magistrate Liu, don't underestimate us!" Liu He looked at him with interest and asked him to continue.

"We are all born by our parents. The Taiping Army doesn't necessarily have two more arms than us, and their weapons and armor are far inferior to ours. Moreover, we are defending while they are attacking. Why do they want us to hide from them? How can the strong avoid the weak?"

"If we leave, we can maintain peace for a while, but the city will fall, and our fellow villagers and comrades will be slaughtered. How can we live in the world in the future?"

"To eat food and avoid fighting is disloyalty! To abandon your comrades and live in shame is unjust! To use your strength to fear the weak enemy is unwise! Such disloyal, unjust and unwise behavior is not what a man should do!"

This man was a big guy nearly nine feet tall. He said this in a very decisive tone. As he finished saying the last word "yes", he slammed the halberd in his hand into the ground. There was a dull "thump" sound, and the end of the halberd penetrated the ground several inches.

His words made those who had been hesitant just now become excited.

Seeing the atmosphere like this, Cui Jun quickly nudged Guan Yu next to him with his elbow, winked at him, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Second General, the firewood has been lit, and it's up to you to add fuel to the fire."

Guan Yu immediately understood. He looked at the sturdy man and nodded repeatedly.

"This guy is pretty good. I wonder which brother he is under? I want him, second brother!"

Cheng Liang immediately started yelling, "Second brother, this won't do! This guy is a soldier under my command. This time on the top of the city, he killed 15 enemy soldiers by himself. I was just about to report to my eldest brother and promote him to sergeant. You can't steal my soldiers, or else we will have a falling out!"

"Well, since my third brother has said so, I'll just have to give up. It's a pity that I don't have such a brave man under my command."

"Yes, yes. I, Zhang Yong, also lack such brave generals under his command."

"Hey, I, Zhu Ye, can't tolerate any grain of sand in my eyes. In the future, those who don't have this kind of blood, don't say that you are the soldiers led by me, Zhu Ye. I, the eldest son Zhu, want to be an unparalleled warrior in the world in the future, and I can't afford to lose this man!"

Most of these people were villagers who voluntarily joined the militia, or small groups of bandits who voluntarily turned from evil to good. They were brave by nature, but they were frightened when they first saw such a cruel scene.

But everyone felt that what Liu He said on the city wall before made a lot of sense. It is better to advance than to retreat. If you advance, you have a chance of survival, but if you retreat, you will die. In addition, now that two comrades have expressed such an opinion, everyone's masculine blood has been ignited again.

Guan Yu and others' provocation finally succeeded in turning the fire into a raging divine fire!

"I am a soldier under General Guan. I want to be a warrior and never be a coward!"

"I am a soldier under General Cheng. Although I am short, I am not inferior to this big guy!"

"I am a soldier under General Zhang, and I will never show weakness!"

"General Zhu, I will follow you for the rest of my life. I will always be your soldier. You can't get rid of me!"

"The same goes for our soldiers under General Ye!"

"The Anmin Army is fearless!"

"The Anmin Army is fearless!"

On the parade ground, all kinds of shouts came one after another. Everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs, their eyes bulging and veins popping out.

"Okay! I, Liu He, on behalf of myself and all the people in the county, thank you all! I promise here that after this battle, everyone will be rewarded!"

Liu He walked to the front of the army and bowed again!
Guan Yu and others were so excited that their faces turned red and their eyes were filled with tears.

The Anmin Army has been reborn, and the door to its bloody rebirth has now opened!
