Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 271 Li Dian's Wife and Son
"No! Uncle, what if I leave you? Let's go together!" Li Dian said tearfully.

"Aren't you going to listen to me now? Do you want to watch my son die on the battlefield?" Cheng Yu said angrily.

Li Dian shook his head and said sadly, "Then uncle, why don't you go by yourself?"

"Mancheng, as you know, all my clansmen follow the lord. If I retreat now, it will be against the lord's order, and it will bring disadvantages to my clansmen! So I can't retreat!" Cheng Yu said.

Then Cheng Yu said sadly: "You go and prepare first, I will write a letter from home first, and I will give it to you to take away later!"

Li Dian shook his head and said, "No matter what, it's not time for me to retreat! As long as I have two thousand knights under my command, it will not be so easy for Feng Yao to conquer!"

……

"My lord, it's already unitary hour, and it will be dark if we wait any longer! Do we want to launch an attack!" Wei Yan asked.

"Wait a little longer, if Xu Chu and Xu Shang haven't brought back any news in half an hour, launch an attack! In addition, you should also take advantage of this time to send soldiers to shoot more letters of persuasion into the city. Attacking the city is the last step of last resort." !” Feng Yao said after thinking about it.

But Feng Yao didn't say the real reason!

"I hope Cheng Yu is a sensible person, and don't make such a meaningless sacrifice! It's best to be able to recognize the situation and use it for me! And Li Dian, as long as Cheng Yu can surrender, Li Dian will follow suit? Then his More than 3000 knights will also become another elite army of mine!! It will greatly increase my strength!!" Feng Yao thought.

Wei Yan got up and was about to go down when suddenly a voice of surprise came from outside the tent, before even entering the tent, the scout shouted happily: "My lord, our army is back!! Commander Xu successfully completed the task!! "

Feng Yao, Xu Shu, Wei Yan, Dai Ling and others in the tent were all stunned for a moment, and then they all showed joy. Wei Yan was the first to rush out of the tent, looking up excitedly.

Feng Yao quickly led the generals out of the tent, and all looked towards the direction of the river bank.

At this time, the Wenshui River was very lively. There were nearly [-] boats, all of which were lit with torches. There were many female relatives on the boats, as well as children jumping on the boats, and some were curiously looking at the camps on both sides of the river!

On the bow of one of the boats, Xu Chu's strong and fat body could be seen, and his expression seemed to be extremely joyful!

"Haha! It's true that Commander Xu has returned, and the subordinates guess that the ship must be the captives captured from Juyeze!!" Dai Ling laughed loudly.

"Huh? My lord! That's not right! What do you think of the captives as if they are free?" Jian Yong asked with a look of doubt.

Feng Yao also noticed something strange, and said, "Follow me to have a look!"

Along the way, wherever they passed, as soon as all the soldiers saw Feng Yao's figure, they immediately straightened up and respected Feng Yao. Of course, Feng Yao would encourage him from time to time. Yes, Feng Yao simply patted him on the shoulder.

And those who have been photographed by Feng Yao, all have bright eyes and are extremely excited!
Soon, Feng Yao led dozens of followers, Xu Shu, Wei Yan, and Dai Ling to the shore.

Xu Chu was overjoyed and jumped ashore from the boat. Regardless of the surprised eyes of the children and women on the boat, he knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists, and said loudly: "My lord!! Xu Chu lived up to my lord's expectations and brought back all the people on the island. No one was injured, no one died, and no one was bullied!!"

Thousands of women and children on the boat suddenly fell silent at this moment, and all the women focused their eyes on Feng Yao!There are different expressions in the eyes.

Surprised: "He is the legendary Feng Yao with the most unpredictable temperament?"

There are also those with complicated emotions and extremely contradictory: "It turns out to be true, but Feng Yao is so young and handsome! I should have persuaded my husband to join Feng Yao, but now I don't know if he is alive or dead? If he is dead, I should hate him." Should he still hate him?"

There are also gritted teeth: "Why do you disturb our peaceful life? You love beating and killing! Why are we women always the ones who suffer in the end?"

"Alas! I never imagined that the Li family, whose reputation spread throughout Juye for hundreds of miles back then, would come down to where it is today!"

"..."

In addition to the women, there are also some older people, but they are only a few. In addition, the number of children on board is the largest!Almost three or more of those women!

There are older children who are over ten years old. These older children have their own dreams. Although some children seem to have heard some bad words from adults and are more or less hostile towards Feng Yao, but Most of the children showed longing and admiration in their eyes.

"I will definitely become a general when I grow up! Just as majestic as that elder brother!"

Of course, this elder brother refers to Feng Yao. Feng Yao is only seventeen now, and he is like an elder brother in the eyes of these ten-year-old children.

Of course, Feng Yao just glanced at the boats at this time, then bent down, helped Xu Chu up, and said with a smile: "Zhongkang, there is no need to be so polite!"

Xu Chu whispered softly: "My lord, I want you to stand up in front of these women and children, and prevent them from doubting your ability because of your youth, so that they will have more confidence in persuading their husbands to join us." camp!"

Feng Yao was startled, and couldn't help but look at Xu Chu again, and said in surprise, "Zhongkang, I never thought you could think so carefully! Good! Very good!"

Then he asked: "These women seem to be willing to come? How did you do it?"

"Actually, it's Xu Shang's credit! It's inconvenient to say more now, I'll report back to the big tent later, and my subordinates will report it in detail!" Xu Chu said with a smile.

"Master!!"

At this time, Xu Shang also jumped off the boat!His expression was a little excited, and after saluting, he said anxiously: "My lord, I have something I want to ask my lord to agree to!"

"Xu Shang, if it's reasonable, of course I will agree!" Feng Yao said.

Xu Shang's expression was relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief, as if relieved, he turned his head and glanced at the women and children, and said, "My lord, I think you must be wondering why they didn't come here tied up! The thing is like this, after the subordinate told them all kinds of troubles, and promised to come, they can meet the knights in Guanzhong Prison, so things will become so smooth, subordinate Dare to ask the lord to agree to this matter!"

Feng Yao looked at the women who were still in the boat waiting for orders, and found that apart from various expressions in their eyes, there was a trace of anxiety and worry in their eyes. Obviously, they all wanted to get out as soon as possible. Hearing the news of his relatives, and want to meet.

Looking at the pleading look in Xu Shang's eyes, Feng Yao really wanted to agree immediately, not to let these people down, but if some of them really knew the truth, many women would immediately cry bitterly!

Because when 100 knights came to sneak attack, 100 of them were already killed. In addition, nearly [-] knights were killed in today's battle. These more than [-] knights represent more than [-] warriors. home, and they will never see their wives again!
"This...!" Feng Yao hesitated, turned his head, and turned his gaze to the military advisor Xu Shu.

This is a military camp. If the more than 1000 families learn the truth and cry loudly in the next moment, this will definitely greatly affect the morale of the army! !
