The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 409 Coercing Meng Huo
"die!"

Following Wei Tao's order, he slashed the halberd in his hand quickly, and immediately saw the bony head flying up. The wide eyes on the head showed a strong expression of unwillingness.

That Wu Tugu was really unwilling, he never thought that five moves, just five moves, Wu Tugu, who thought he was already invincible all over the Nanman except for Meng Huo, was killed by Wei Tao's halberd.

The first halberd interrupted his charging momentum, the second and third halberds forced him to defend with all his strength, the fourth halberd cut directly onto his arm, causing his weapon to fall, and the fifth halberd directly took him away. head.

Such a result made it hard for Wu Tugu to believe it, but he had to believe it.

Of course, at this time, Wu Tugu couldn't believe it or not, he was already dead.

"The whole army obeys the order! Kill the Nanman, and don't let anyone go. If there is no one who surrenders, you will be killed!"

The name of the Vine Armored Soldier is well-known even in Nanman, but the Teng Armored Soldier and its leader, Wu Tugu, were killed so easily, and finally their morale fell to the bottom, and they never dared to fight with Wei again. The soldiers under Tao's command fought each other, one by one scrambling for their lives.

Wei Tao's manpower is limited, even if he is chasing and killing them, it is impossible to catch them all at this time, so Wei Tao ordered the rattan armored soldiers to be strangled first.

Even so, this battle took most of the day.

"I report to Your Majesty, but I have never seen the figure of the barbarian king Meng Huo. It is said that after learning that the camp was attacked, Meng Huo did not return immediately, but led the people under his command to decide to return to the southern barbarians. I am afraid that now We have already reached Jinzhu Pass.”

"Sure enough, Meng Huo's ability to become a barbarian king is not a lie, he still has a certain amount of wisdom."

Although from the beginning to the end of this battle, the Nanman had nothing impressive except for his bravery, Wei Tao still didn't underestimate the opponent too much. After all, these Nanman also caused a lot of losses to his army.

Although it always has the upper hand, up to now, half of Wei Tao's army has been killed or injured, and more than [-]% of the half of the casualties are dead, and more than [-]% have suffered irreversible serious injuries. Less than [-]% of people can be sure that they can recover.

This can be seen the strength of the Nanman, Wei Tao does not want his border to be threatened by these Nanman from time to time.

"Pass down the order, and all the cavalry will immediately pursue Meng Huo with me, and we must not let him escape!"

"promise!"

Although Meng Huo had left half a day earlier, Meng Huo soon discovered that his retreat had been cut off by Gan Ning under Wei Tao's command. It was still not that easy to break through the checkpoint, especially after Meng Huo mobilized his warriors to break through three checkpoints in a row.

Not only did the Han army within the checkpoint have already retreated first when they broke through the checkpoint, but more importantly, as the soldiers gathered, Gan Ning's strength became stronger and stronger, making Meng Huo more and more powerful. It is difficult to break through.

"Damn!"

Meng Huo didn't know how many times he had cursed secretly, but this time he couldn't help but curse again.

I don't know why, but at this time Meng Huo had an ominous premonition. He had already vaguely sensed Wei Tao's danger, and he had laid an ambush here early on. Naturally, the purpose is needless to say, it is precisely to annihilate Wei Tao. own army.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?"

This feeling is not limited to Meng Huo, his closest two wives, Zhu Rong, and younger brother Meng You all feel this way. They are asking questions at this time, but there is also a look of unstoppable panic on their faces.

"What are you panicking about!"

After all, Meng Huo was Meng Huo, a man who could become a barbarian king, so he still had some composure. Hearing his words like this, Zhu Rong and Meng You were slightly shocked and calmed down.

"Now our situation is not good. I believe you can also see that the Han people are cunning. Not to mention that we have repeatedly suffered losses, and our soldiers have also suffered a lot of losses. What's more, our food is only enough for one or two now. Day, if you can't return to our territory in time, I'm afraid it would not be uncommon to die here."

The barbarian was indeed straightforward. After what Meng Huo said, the fear that had been suppressed could not help but rise in the hearts of Zhu Rong and Meng You. If Meng Huo was not by the side at this time, they would not want to let Meng Huo Seeing timidity again, I'm afraid he couldn't help but scream out.

"My lord, what are we going to do now? Are we going to fight the Han people?"

However, it has to be said that barbarians are brutal in nature. Even in such a situation, Zhu Rong's face still showed a bit of ferocity. Obviously, if he wanted to go all out, Zhu Rong would not be weak in the slightest.

The same is true for Meng You next to him.

Seeing the two of them like this, Meng Huo was both happy and angry. He was happy that Zhu Rong and Meng You could still behave like this even at this time, and angry that there were many brave people around him when the Nanman was prosperous. The Nanman warriors, but now, only Zhu Rong and Meng You are still by their side.

The gap is huge.

"Fighting can't be done like this, but you know about the Han army, but if it's like this..."

Meng Huo hesitated even after taking two steps back and forth, he understood the current situation best.

Meng Huo was also not afraid of death, but he also didn't want to die, and it was because of this that he hesitated. After walking back and forth for a few steps, he fell silent for a while.

"Although we can't beat the Han army, it's not so easy for the Han army to take us down. I heard that the Han emperor loves soldiers like his own son. Can we force him to let us go back?"

Meng You said at this time, which in itself was already a sign of weakness.

Everyone knew that this matter was not that easy, it would be better to say that what Meng You wanted to say at this time was that he was going to surrender, but he didn't say it out to save Meng Huo's face.

Thinking of this, Meng Huo glanced again, not at Zhu Rong and Meng You beside him, but at the Nanman soldiers under his command, but saw that all of them had dim eyes, obviously without much fighting spirit.

"Could it be that my family is dead?"

At this moment, Meng Huo really felt remorse in his heart, regretting that he had come to attack Han.

"Report!"

At this moment, someone flew to report to Meng Huo.

"My lord, there are a large number of people from our clan who fled from the rear. It is said that they were defeated by the Han emperor Wei Tao. All the clan leaders and cave masters including Wu Tugu were beheaded, and the Han emperor Or personally lead the cavalry to chase after him, I'm afraid it will be here in a while!"

"what!"

Even Meng Huo couldn't keep calm at this time.

"Could it be that they are rushing tens of thousands of troops and can't hold on even for a day?"

Meng Huo really couldn't believe it, but he had to believe it, because the billowing smoke and dust were already visible, and Wei Tao was already leading the charge.

But at this time, Gan Ning, who had been stationed at the checkpoint, immediately gave up the advantage of the checkpoint, and also led the troops to fight back and forth.

Just counting the number of people, even if it is a front and back attack, the number of the two armies is actually about the same, but the morale of the two armies is completely different. It became chaotic, and even more incompetent.

"Where is Meng Huo? And he came to meet me!"

Wei Tao reined in his horse tightly and stopped, raising his hand to shout at him, not showing any sign of weakness at all.

Hearing this order, all the soldiers of the Southern Barbarians were flustered, and they didn't dare to fight with Wei Tao's soldiers.

In this way, Meng Huo's complexion would not look good, but Meng Huo had to show up at this time.

"Humph! Meng Huo, you are at the end of the road. When I give an order, all the soldiers will come together to capture and kill you. If you are willing to surrender at this time, then I will spare your life. No barbarian king's honor, but as long as you are willing to obey my order, you can still belong to the Nanman, if not, I will definitely order you all to beheaded! Never allow anyone to return to the Nanman!"

Wei Tao's voice was fierce, and his words were even more unceremonious.

But when he heard this, although Meng Huo was extremely annoyed, he didn't immediately refute it. Although he didn't want to say it, in fact Meng Huo clearly knew what the result would be.

"Your Majesty..."

Seeing Meng Huo like this, Zhu Rong and Meng You were stunned. Those who knew Meng Huo naturally knew that Meng Huo was hesitant at this moment.

Although Wei Tao didn't have this understanding of Meng Huo, he still had some speculations when he saw Meng Huo's silent appearance.

It can be said that he surrendered Menghuo.

Although Wei Tao already has some plans in mind for dealing with the Nanman, if Meng Huo can return and Meng Huo can follow what Wei Tao said, then Wei Tao will be able to deal with the Nanman matter even more .

So at this time, Wei Tao's heart was a little more eager, and he spoke again, but this time he was a little less aggressive.

"Meng Huo listened to what I said. Since you are the king of the Southern Barbarians, you should know your Southern Barbarian rules. If the two tribes fight, what should you do if there is a winner? Now that our Han nationality is strong, we can even send troops to destroy the Er tribe. , I don’t know if the Er people are following the 'rules'? What will happen to those who are uneasy about the rules?"

Hearing Wei Tao's words, Meng Huo was taken aback for a moment, his face changed suddenly, those who don't surrender will be wiped out!
In fact, Wei Tao didn't know the rules of the southern barbarians, but these barbarian races that respected strength were mostly similar. Even if they didn't know Wei Tao, they could guess it. Meng Huo's sudden change of face also explained all this.

Seeing this, Wei Tao smiled slightly, knowing that Meng Huo had actually been moved by what he said, and immediately added the last fire to make Meng Huo surrender completely!

"Meng Huo, I have one last question. If I send troops to the Nanman to replace you as the barbarian king and order the Nanman, and use the leaders of various tribes as the order, can I command the barbarians like you?"
