King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 205 The Hope Brought by Food

Many defeated troops are now fleeing with Ju Yi relying entirely on the desire to survive in their hearts. Even the strongest of Ju Yi's subordinates who boarded the camp first are no exception. They are almost on the verge of collapse. They are human beings. It's not a machine, but it suffered a big defeat, and it was defeated by the terrifying fire bull formation. Whether it is the body or the spirit of the soldiers, it is not easy to bear.

"Take a break!" Ju Yi gave an order, and countless soldiers suddenly limp like mud, sat or simply fell to the ground. Some even lost their weapons. They were exhausted to the extreme and failed to the extreme. Sweeping through the crowd, his face was quite ugly. The army he personally trained would have such a day, which Ju Yi never thought of, but Ju Yi also knew that at this time scolding or military law was useless Now, relying on his own personal prestige, he is ruling this army.

Suddenly, a crisp sound of horseshoes came from the east. Ju Yifang saw that it was Zhang Nan, who was in charge of the rear of the palace, leading a small number of cavalry to this side.

"How's the situation?" Ju Yi asked aloud, feeling a little worried.

"They didn't come after them, so the chasing general ordered to use dry rations..." Zhang Nance came to Ju Yi's side, and said with a smile, he could finally take a rest. Being able to pursue without urgency, his side can finally take a break. In his opinion, the future of leading the pursuers is really incompetent. With such a great opportunity, he should take advantage of the victory and pursue the pursuit. He actually ordered to stop and use dry food.

But Ju Yi's face turned dark unexpectedly, Zhang Nan looked at Ju Yi strangely, "You will be very smart..." Ju Yi's face was extremely ugly, and his lips were dry.

"What's wrong? They stopped to rest, didn't they give us a chance to breathe..." Zhang Nan couldn't help asking because he was really worried about Ju Yi.

"They have dry food, but what about us?" Ju Yi laughed at himself.

The defeat last night was really unexpected. When the soldiers fled, they didn't bring any dry food at all.And in this place, there are no villages, no stores, no food in the barren mountains and wild ridges. The more you run away when you run out of supplies, the more energy you will consume, even if you sit without eating.It will also consume physical strength, but the leading general of the opponent is not in a hurry to pursue, but stops to rest and eat dry food to replenish physical strength. He is a general who is quite capable of using his superiority and is a very powerful opponent.

"Then what should we do?" Zhang Nan immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and asked with a bitter face.

Ju Yi fell into deep thought. It was too strenuous to deal with such a formidable opponent. Now there were two paths in front of him. One was that he took a small number of soldiers, abandoned the large army, and escaped by a small path.This road has a great chance of allowing him to escape, but the disadvantage is that he will never have another chance if he admits defeat, pack up the remnants and fight again. Will fight.Just now Zhang Nan has been found out, and the other party only has about 5000 people.

And now he also has 6000 people, although it seems to be a bit frustrated.But if he is full of food and drink, he is still a hero, not to mention that his most elite first boarding camp is by his side.And Ju Yi absolutely does not want to admit his failure.He ordered ruthlessly in his heart, "Zhang Nan! You lead all the cavalry to look around, and if you encounter a village, grab the food."

"No..." Zhang Nan obeyed his order and immediately led a small number of cavalry towards the west. Although Zhang Nan was not very willing to snatch food, but in this case, if there was no food, he had to eat war horses. If it's not enough, then there is only cannibalism. It's not that Yuan Shao's army has never faced a situation of cannibalism. When Zhang Nan thought of this, his body couldn't help but tremble.

But Ju Yi ordered the soldiers to rest in place.He tried his best to recover some strength and fled again, but the pursuers obviously didn't give him too much time, and the cavalry responsible for inquiring about the news returned within a quarter of an hour.

"General, the pursuers are approaching again." The cavalry dismounted and reported.

It's really like a dog, biting and not letting go.Ju Yi couldn't help cursing in his heart, but it was just cursing in his heart, he had no room to fight back. "Go!" After Ju Yi gave the order, he immediately got on his horse and continued to flee towards the south.

After a short rest, the physical strength of the soldiers increased a little. Many of them reluctantly stood up and fled with Ju Yi, but some of them were unwilling to leave.There were even some people who were exhausted and fell asleep, and Ju Yi didn't have the energy to take care of it anymore, so he could only hope that they were lucky. Soon, Ju Yi and others fled to the south, leaving only a few dozen or so. Soldiers of Ju Yi's army who were dazed or in a coma.

About a quarter of an hour later, Li Lin led the army to kill, including five thousand elite soldiers, including Li Lin's complexion, which was a little rosier than before.After all, they just rested for a while and ate some dry food, and their physical strength has recovered by [-]% to [-]%, and they are the winners, so there is nothing to panic about.

Riding his horse at the forefront, Li Lin glanced at the dozens of soldiers left behind by Ju Yi, then got off his horse, and came to a soldier of Ju Yi, who was about 30 years old, judging from his size and a wound on his face. From the looks of it, it should be a strong soldier who has been through the war, but at this time, he is lying powerlessly, and the despair of the defeated army is shot in his eyes.

Li Lin looked at the soldier silently, and the soldier also looked at Li Lin blankly. "Who is the general in front?" After a moment of silence, Li Lin asked, and the soldiers of Ju Yi's army showed a bit of sarcasm, and they looked at Li Lin silently.

"These soldiers are really loyal..." Li Lin said silently in his heart, but.There was a trace of indifference on Li Lin's face, even if he didn't say anything, he would know who it was after he was caught, and Li Lin was already somewhat sure of who this person was.

Li Lin ordered, "Leave ten people to escort these people to the camp of our army outside Juyang City. Remember that before they arrive in the camp, don't feed them dry food, and don't give them water. Lest they lose control ..."

"No..." Ten soldiers came out immediately from the soldiers, and promised.After staying, Li Lin took a look, and immediately led the army to chase and kill them towards the south.

Li Lin and Ju Yi chased and fled for another ten miles. After fleeing for ten miles, the soldiers were almost exhausted, and it was difficult to walk a few more steps.But in front of them, a village appeared, a village with smoke, and Zhang Nan's figure also appeared in front of them.

"General, I believe that all the surrounding villages have obtained a lot of spiritual consciousness, and food is ready in the village ahead, so hurry up and eat." Zhang Nan rode his horse and said in front of Ju Yi.

"Well..." Ju Yi nodded, looking at the village in front of him, some hope rose in his heart, as long as there is a little food, just a little food, and then Ju Yi ordered the soldiers to enter the village.

In the village, hot meals have already been prepared. The village is very large, and Youzhou has not been governed by Liu Yu in recent years. Therefore, although there are many soldiers in Juyi, everyone can get their share. A bite of food.

It is inevitable that Ju Yi had to order the distribution because of a battle over food.This delayed a lot of time, and when the food was distributed to the soldiers, Ju Yi looked at the food in his hand and couldn't help but sigh, "Hey... After a big defeat, what kind of face is there to see you again, Lord!" The hunger was unbearable. Now that there is food, Ju Yi can't eat any more, but the soldiers are still eating crazily with tears in their eyes. After all, they have been hungry for too long and escaped for too long.

Ju Yi, as the chief general, of course distributed more food, but Ju Yi distributed all the excess to the soldiers around him. Now when it is a time of shared adversity, Ju Yi still has some food to eat, so he feels more You should be considerate of the soldiers around you.

After eating a few mouthfuls of food, Ju Yi's hope increased a lot again when he met the admiring eyes of the soldiers around him because they had a little more food.After eating a little bit, as long as you rest for a while, you will have more physical strength. Even if the enemy army chases up, you can fight to the death with the pursuers, gather the fleeing soldiers, and then return to attack Li Lin and Liu Yu's army.

"My lord, Ju Yi's army has arrived in a village ahead, and cooking smoke is burning in the village. It is estimated that Ju Yi's army is eating!" A soldier ran to Li Lin and reported.

"Meal?" Li Lin frowned, how could he do it, how could there be so much food in this area of ​​the village, Ju Yi's army had at least 5000 people!
The general next to Li Lin immediately said, "My lord, no! You can't let that Ju Yi army eat food. If they have food by then, they will recover their combat power, which is not good for our army!"

Li Lin was very surprised. After eating the food, these remnant soldiers were no longer remnant soldiers, and became those strong soldiers who fought a hundred battles again. What's going on? How could there be food in the village? He didn't rush to chase them Along the way, Li Lin has almost concluded that Ju Yi or other very important generals in Yuan Shao's army, among them, if Li Lin wants to take a long line to catch big fish, it is best to be able to capture a few of Yuan Shao's generals alive, or Adviser!

Li Lin didn't panic, and immediately asked, "Are there other people active in this generation?" The soldier thought for a while, and said, "Yes! It should be General Hou Yu's blood killing camp!"

Li Lin immediately understood in his heart, and couldn't help cursing to himself, "Grass! Hou Yu, you murderous god, do you have to fight Ju Yi? Pervert!"

The soldiers around him were confused. Li Lin shook his head with a wry smile, and the general beside him said, "My lord, we should launch an attack on the army in front now. While they are eating, they are ready to kill them by surprise, and they will definitely be able to kill them." Capture them all alive!"
