Chapter 1254 The general trend is gone

Wu Tugu sent several teams of scouts in a row. Soon after, the scouts returned one after another. It turned out that there were too many forks in the cave, and they had no way to search.

"General, look~~~?" Wu Tugu asked at Fa Zheng.

Fa Zheng ordered: "The army is stationed here in the village to closely monitor the movements at the entrance of the cave!" "Yes!" Wu Tugu replied.

Fa Zheng ordered the messenger around him: "Send a message to Your Majesty immediately!"

...

A few days after that, there were Qin army scouts everywhere in Jiaozhou, but no valuable clues were found.

On that day, a team of more than 10,000 people appeared in the mountains more than ten miles north of Sanjiang County. They were trekking hard on the muddy and rugged mountain road in heavy rain.

"Where are we going?" A young man wearing a turban asked his companion beside him. The companion looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to him. He whispered: "I heard that we are going to the more desolate south!" The young man wearing a turban changed his expression and asked in confusion: "Why is this?" The companion sighed, "Is it necessary to ask? We attacked the Yan Concubine of Daqin, and the emperor personally led the army to suppress the rebellion! We can't stay there!" The young man wearing a turban frowned and said in a deep voice: "I don't want to leave his hometown like this, let alone my mother and younger sister are still in the village over the other side of Laoshan!" The companion nodded with a deep feeling, his expression moved, he looked around vigilantly, and lowered his voice: "Let's just find an opportunity to escape!" The young man wearing a turban was stunned and nodded vigorously.

Meng Huo rode a pony unique to the southwest and walked in the middle of the team, with a depressed expression and anger flashed in his eyes from time to time. The leaders around him were all listless.

Meng Huo led the team out of the mountains. At this time, a leader rushed over to report: "King, many people ran away quietly!"

Meng Huo immediately became angry, "Bastard! All deserves to die!"

At this moment, a young man who wanted to be a deserter was taken to Meng Huoma. "King, this man is going to escape and we are caught!"

The deserter raised his head and his heart couldn't help but shrink. Meng Huo looked very ferocious, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire, and his big teeth like guillotine shone with a cold light under the rain.

"Good king, please spare me!~~" The deserters kowtowed and begged for mercy. The leaders looked at Meng Huo with a complicated expression.

Meng Huo jumped off the war horse and walked to the deserter. The deserter raised his head and looked up at Meng Huo, and saw a huge black shadow blocking all the light.

Meng Huo captured the deserter and, without waiting for everyone to react, suddenly pulled out a scimitar and stabbed it into the deserter's chest. Everyone couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

An extremely crazy look flashed in Meng Huo's eyes. He plucked the scimitar on the deserter's chest and actually dug out a human heart. The heart was still beating vigorously.

Everyone present could not help but change their faces, and they dared not look at Meng Huo, who was like a demon king.

Meng Huo threw the body of the brutally murdered soldier aside, raised the heart in his hand, and shouted sternly: "This is the end of defection!"

Everyone looked silent.

After a while, Meng Huo led the team to continue on the road. At this time, a fast horse flashed by not far ahead of the team.

"King, the one who was supposed to be the scout of the Qin army just now! What should I do?" a leader asked.

Meng Huo thought for a moment and ordered: "First capture Sanjiang County, and then find a way to cross the river. Even if the Qin army gets the news now, it will take several days to mobilize under such weather!" At this time, Meng Huo and the others did not know that nearly 50,000 Jingzhou garrison troops were in Sanjiang County.

Nearly ten thousand barbarians accelerated their speed towards Sanjiang County. As soon as they arrived outside the city, they suddenly found countless Qin troops surrounding them from all directions.

The barbarian army was in chaos.

"What's going on? Why are there so many Qin troops here?" Meng Huo asked in shock.

Meng Huo's younger brother Meng You said anxiously: "Brother, hurry up and retreat! If you are too late, you can't leave!" In fact, they can't get rid of it now.

Just as the barbarian army was running in a hurry, a thousand light cavalry made a round from the left and stopped in front of the barbarian army.

Seeing that there was no way out, the barbarian army suddenly burst out with a fierce force, raised their maces and shouted at the thousand light cavalry in front of them. The momentum was amazing, like a group of wild beasts.

After all, these thousand light cavalry were just local security forces. They suddenly faced the desperate nearly ten thousand barbarians, and inevitably showed a panic expression.

The leading cavalry commander calmed down and raised his ring-headed sword and shouted: "Kill!"

When Yi Qian Qingqi saw the commander's shout, his panic was immediately suppressed by a burst of passion. Yi Qian Qingqi shouted fiercely, urging his war horse to meet the barbarian army who wanted to fight to the death.

In a blink of an eye, the two sides collided violently. The roar and clanging sound immediately turned into a circle, and the sound of clattering rain seemed to no longer exist at this time; barbarian soldiers were cut down one after another in the mud; Qin army light cavalry also continued to fall; the bright red color gradually spread in the vast rainwater...

The light cavalry failed to stop the desperate barbarian army. The barbarian army broke through the blockade of the light cavalry and fled to the north.

Tens of thousands of Qin troops chased after him.

About half an hour later, the barbarian army fled to the mouth of the mountain gorge that had come out not long ago. However, mudslides continued to flow out from the mouth of the gorge, and it was impossible for the barbarian army to return the same way.

As a last resort, Meng Huo led his men and fled to the mountain.

After another half an hour, Meng Huo and others finally climbed to the top of the mountain, but found that they were trapped. The back mountain was a cliff, but were surrounded by tens of thousands of Qin troops in front.

"King, what should I do now?" a leader asked in panic. Meng Huo frowned and looked desperate, and the rain flowed down his eyelids.

That night.

The barbarians were huddled on the mountain, cold and hungry, and could not do anything under the erosion of heavy rain. The Qin army set up camp on the high ground at the foot of the mountain, and almost all the soldiers hid in the tent. A Qin soldier stood at the entrance of the tent drinking hot tea, looking at the pouring rain outside the tent and exclaimed: "The heavy rain in Jiaozhou is really spectacular!"

Several leaders of Meng Huo gathered together. One of them said in a deep voice: "If this continues, we will all die without a place to bury!"

The other people nodded together, "If Meng Huo hadn't attacked Concubine Yan for personal grudges, how could we be here?" His tone was full of resentment.

"In order for the people of our entire clan to continue to survive, we can't continue like this!"

Everyone nodded together, with a look of utter dissatisfaction on their faces.

Meng Huo sat under a small pine tree and squinted his eyes. His mind was filled with scenes from the past and Chen Chu's hateful face. "I will kill you one day!" Meng Huo murmured, full of hatred.

Suddenly, Meng Huo felt a rope slamming his chest. He opened his eyes and saw that his leaders were tying him with ferocious expressions. He subconsciously reached out to get his weapons, but grabbed them. He turned his head to look at him. He saw that his weapons were actually in the hands of his younger brother Meng You. "Meng You, what are you doing?!" Meng Huo shouted angrily, quite powerful. Meng You was surprised, subconsciously took a step back, calmed down, and said helplessly: "Brother, I'm sorry! I don't want to die with you!!" "Traitor! You traitor!!" Meng Huo roared angrily. Meng You said: "Brother, although I'm sorry for you, I'm not a traitor! At least I did this for the future of our tribe members! Unlike you, as the patriarch, I do those ridiculous behaviors for personal grievances!"

Meng Huo was tied up by many flowers. The leaders discussed with Meng You for a while and decided that Meng You would go down the mountain to contact the Qin army first.

Meng You brought two entourages to the foot of the mountain and was immediately discovered by the patrol team. They were taken to the tent.

At the same time, Meng Huo, who was already in a desperate situation, was still unwilling to fail and said to the leader who was responsible for guarding him: "Mudu, what do I have to do to you?"
