Chapter 66 I will marry you

Not to mention, Huo Yi's grandson really waited for the opportunity to meet with other defeated soldiers in the South Central.

The opportunity appeared on the morning of the second day when the Han army surrounded Huo Yi's grandson. In the howling cold wind, a large group of defeated soldiers in the South Central who were unloading armor suddenly came from the east and appeared on the mountain road east of the mountain basin. Seeing this from afar, Huo Yi quickly ordered the Southern Central Cavalry, who had only more than 200 people, to light the fire prepared in advance, release smoke and send a signal, and at the same time, let the personal soldiers shake their flags desperately and inform the group of defeated soldiers to come and pick him up to break through.

At the same time, under the stone mountain that rose from the ground, the Han army with less than two thousand people closely surrounded the stone mountain where the Huo family's grandchildren were, but they were all tired troops who were chasing for a long distance. They still fought fiercely during the pursuit, and their physical strength was greatly reduced. They didn't even have time to carry military supplies. They could only sleep in the basin and rest in the basin, suffering from the torture of the cold wind in winter. The overall situation was far from reaching its peak and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.

Not only that, under the cliff not far away, the Han army also used simple fortifications to imprison several hundred prisoners of the Southern Central Army. Not only did they score points and provide troops to guard them, but once there was a chance, these newly captured prisoners of the Southern Central Army would definitely take the opportunity to launch a riot and help pick up Huo Yi down the mountain to break through.

The group of defeated soldiers in the South Central did not disappoint Huo Yi. After seeing Huo Yi's flag surrounded on an isolated stone mountain in the basin, the group of defeated soldiers in the South Central Central shouted and charged down the mountain without hesitation, trying to rush to pick up Huo Yi's breakthrough. Huo Yi also quickly ordered the soldiers around him to prepare for the breaking of the mountain. The Han army only hurriedly dispatched six dissatisfied troops to charge towards the soldiers in the South Central that came down the mountain, trying to use the narrow mountain road to block the soldiers in the South Central Central.

Another fierce battle was of course soon on the narrow mountain road. Huo Yi's grandson and the soldiers of Nanzhong were all nervous and stood up and clenched their fists, hoping that friendly troops would quickly rush over the Han army's blocking position and rushed to the foot of the mountain to meet his breakthrough. Huo Meng almost bit his cherry lip and kept shouting in his heart, "Hurry! Hurry! Come over and kill Zhang Zhigou thief!"

Unfortunately, the cruel facts made the trapped soldiers of the Southern Central Army desperate. After fighting, the group of soldiers from the South Central Army who came from the east did not quickly break through the blocking positions of the Han army, but were killed by the Han army and retreated one after another, and continued to fall into the valley and be forced to flee into the forest. The Han army covered in dust and blood were advancing rapidly, killing the soldiers of the South Central Committee with unstoppable momentum. There were even many soldiers of the South Central Committee who put down their weapons and surrendered to the Han army.

"Who led the troops? It's useless? Just stop rushing to the bandit army from a high position, why are they still defeated by the bandit army? What kind of battle is this?"

Meng Jiu and other soldiers in the South Central Army roared, all of whom were too weak to understand the combat power of the friendly forces. Instead, the Lord Bo Yanji guessed the reason and said: "It should be a physical problem. Our soldiers lost all their food and grass, and did not carry dry food. After walking so far, they were in trouble and hungry. Their physical strength must have reached their limit, so it is normal for them to not be able to defeat the thief army."

"Then the thief army is not tired or hungry?"

Meng Jiu retorted unconvincedly: "Not to mention that the thief army was fighting while chasing us, the physical strength must be consumed more than us. Even if the thief army carried dry food and rice balls with them, they should have eaten almost the same food?"

"Yes? Is this wrong?"

Yan Ji also found something wrong and quickly turned to Huo Yi and said, "Governor, this is so strange. The thief army has pursued such a long distance, why is it still maintaining its physical strength so well? Also, even if they brought dry food, they had to fight hundreds of miles of roads yesterday, they must have eaten up. Why is the thief army still not in a hurry to attack the mountain? Don't they know that we have many war horses that can kill horses and eat raw horse meat to satisfy our hunger?"

Huo Yi, who knew some of the inside story, smiled bitterly and said, but Huo Meng wanted to speak. Huo Yi was afraid that his granddaughter would shake the morale of the army, so he quickly pulled his granddaughter and said, "I don't know, wait patiently. This road is a big road, and there must be our defeated soldiers behind him. After our defeated soldiers brought the news back, someone would definitely come to save us."

When Yan Ji, Meng Jiu and other civil and military officials in the Southern Central Army nodded and said yes, Huo Yi looked at the Han soldiers at the foot of the mountain and said to himself: "Look at how many Snickers you brought."

After a while, the first group of defeated soldiers in the South Central were basically defeated by the Han army. After the defeat, some of the soldiers in the South Central Central fled to their destination, some fled into the mountains and forests, and many prisoners of the Han army were stalked to the temporary prisoner-of-war camp by the Han army. During this period, there were also constant situations where prisoners were exhausted due to exhaustion of physical strength. Fortunately, the Han army soldiers were still kind and righteous. Not only did they not beat and insult the fallen prisoners, they also helped them up and allowed them to walk slowly without forcing them.

Seeing this, Huo Yi not only despised the false benevolence and righteousness of the Han army, but also said in his heart: "It's hypocritical. Since you treat the prisoners so well, you will definitely not let our captured soldiers be so hungry. As long as you send food to our prisoners, the food you carry with you will definitely not last long."

At this time, Huo Meng suddenly came to Huo Yi's ear, pointed in one direction and said, "Grandfather, look, the thief army seems to be eating instant noodles."

Huo Yi looked closely and saw that among the Han soldiers in that direction, there were indeed some Han soldiers chewing the instant noodles he had seen. Huo Yi was not surprised, and even said to his granddaughter in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, instant noodles are not too hungry, and they take up space. The more the thief army eats, the more they can't consume us."

Having horse meat can barely satisfy your hunger, which became the only hope for the defeated army in the South Central to destroy the Han army. No matter how much dry food the Han soldiers carried with them, could there be more war horses that Huo Yi brought up the mountain?

However, the lack of water has tortured the defeated soldiers in the South Central Army. There is no water source on the stone mountain. Although the weather in Jingke is much colder than that in Jianning, it is not as cold as possible to snow. So on the afternoon of the second day of being trapped, the defeated soldiers in the South Central Army, including Huo Yi, can only rely on horse urine to quench their thirst. The only precious drinking water belongs to Huo Meng, who is delicate and clean.

Under such circumstances, Huo Yi and Nanzhong defeated soldiers were of course supported by will and inspired themselves by hope of rescue. At the same time, on the morning of the third day of being trapped, something happened that surprised Huo Yi and other Nanzhong defeated soldiers - there was a noise and commotion among the captives of the Nanzhong army not far away.

When Huo Yi and others discovered this situation, of course, rushed to the closest place as possible to check the situation. They also vaguely heard the Han soldiers roaring loudly, "Shut up to Naiweng! I have said it many times, it is not a stolen rice or a stolen rice. We never kill prisoners! When we arrive, there will be better instant noodles for you to eat!"

"Grandfather, look!" Huo Meng pointed to the prisoner camp and exclaimed: "The prisoners also seem to be holding instant noodles in their hands!"

He tried hard to open his eyes wide and vaguely saw some prisoners of the Southern Central Army, who were indeed waving colorful instant noodles bags. Huo Yi was completely stunned and screamed: "Is it impossible? Is the thief army's instant noodles too much to be sent to our prisoners? Our prisoners ate all the instant noodles, what do they eat?"

No one could answer Huo Yi's question, but fortunately, God did not completely abandon Huo Yi and others. At noon that day, more defeated soldiers of the Southern Central Army appeared on the mountain roads coming from the east again. The trapped defeated soldiers of the Southern Central Army immediately hoped to rekindle and were ready to charge down the mountain to break through again. However...

However, the situation this time was even worse than the last time. The Han army also divided about one-third of its troops and easily stopped the hungry and cold defeated group of soldiers in the South Central on the narrow mountain road. With its almost perverted physical strength, it once again attacked from below and successfully defeated the group of defeated soldiers in the South Central and captured the number of defeated soldiers in the South Central that was larger than the last time.

Seeing this scene, Huo Yi and others were of course almost completely desperate, because they all knew very well that the longer the time was delayed, the more tired and hungry the remaining defeated soldiers in the south center in the east were, and the less combat effectiveness, and it was even more impossible to kill the foot of the mountain to meet them to break through. So after discussing it hurriedly, Huo Yi and others could only decide to take advantage of the opportunity of the Han army to escort the prisoners to the prisoner camp, go down the mountain to break through with all their might, and try to break out of the Han army's siege and escape.

It was still useless. As soon as the cavalry in the South Central made a breakthrough, the Han army immediately lit a huge pile of firewood piled on the narrow and gentle slope, setting fire to block the breakout road of the cavalry in the South Central Central. At the same time, the Han army did not know what to use to ignite the firewood. After the torches were thrown into the firewood pile, flames immediately rose under the firewood pile, and it became more and more prosperous. Then, before the cavalry in the South Central Central rushed to the front, the firewood pile had already ignited a huge fire. At the same time, the Han soldiers also fired arrows at the same time, and shot the defeated soldiers in the South Central back to the mountain.

The blazing fire burned the road and completely burned out the hope of breaking through the defeated soldiers in the South Central Army. Looking at the floating flames, none of the more than 200 defeated soldiers of the South Central Army were ashamed and as stagnant as water. They knew that if this continued, they would be thirsty in this stone mountain without any water source in a few days.

After all the prisoners were locked in the prisoner-of-war camp, Zhang Zhi's ugly, hideous and dirty face appeared again in front of Huo Yi's grandson, holding a strange trumpet and shouting: "General Huo, you have no hope, surrender. I can guarantee that as long as you lead the soldiers to put down your weapons and surrender, I will not only not make things difficult for you, but will also re-appoint you as General Annan of the Han Dynasty as the commander-in-chief of the Han Dynasty! Give you generous treatment!"

"Bah, yellow-haired child, I want me to kneel down and surrender to you, you are dreaming!" Huo Yi cursed in a hoarse voice.

The distance is too far and the severely short of water is Huo Yi's voice is hoarse. In fact, Zhang Zhi didn't hear Huo Yi's scolding at all, but just shouted to himself: "Old General, I know that you must think that if you can kill horses and eat meat, you will definitely starve the younger generation and the big men first. But you are very wrong. To be honest, I have prepared a secret granary near this place and stocked up a large amount of food. If you are hungry, you will definitely not starve to you. On the contrary, you and your soldiers will definitely die of thirst!"

Of course Huo Yi would not believe Zhang Zhi’s nonsense. Zhang Zhi had guessed this a long time ago and shouted: “Old General, I know you won’t believe it, but it doesn’t matter. Seeing it is true, look over there.”

Subconsciously following Zhang Zhi's guidance, Huo Yi and the defeated soldiers in Nanzhong soon saw that a group of Han soldiers did move out many strange boxes from behind a cliff that they could not see, and then moved them to the Han soldiers to put them down. One of them was moved to Zhang Zhi. Zhang Zhi opened it with his own hands and took out an instant noodles that the grandparents of the Huo family had never seen before and waved them, shouting: "Her old general, have you seen it? This clock is also instant noodles, which can also be hungry, and you can eat them directly without soaking in water. So you will definitely not be able to compete with us for food!"

After shouting, Zhang Zhi turned around and shouted at the Han army soldiers: "Soldiers, you can eat whatever instant noodles you just moved. Let the old general see if we have done something to deceive him? Let the old general see if we secretly stockpile the instant noodles here are too many to eat at will?"

According to Zhang Zhi's order, the Han army soldiers opened the newly moved noodles and chewed them. At the same time, some Han army soldiers were dispatched again, and moved more pure noodles from a location that Huo Yi and others could not see. Then they moved some to the prisoner-of-war camp for the captured soldiers in the South to share.

Seeing this scene, Huo Yi, who was obviously much older, shook his body first, and then suddenly staggered and almost fell down. After Huo Meng and his personal soldiers screamed and supported him, Huo Yi moaned in despair again, "Is this little man a god? He actually predicted the truth. He has really secretly stored a lot of food here?"

No one said anything, but the desperate expression had already filled the faces of every soldier in the South. Zhang Zhize shouted at the foot of the mountain and kept persuading Huo Yi to lead his army to surrender. Huo Yi ignored it. He just walked slowly to a big stone with the help of Huo Meng and his personal soldiers, leaned on the big stone and sat down. He ordered in a hoarse voice: "Let me calm down, I want to calm down."

Everyone was speechless, but they retreated one after another, looking for a suitable place to sit down and rest. Only Huo Meng sat next to Huo Yi, obediently hammering his legs for Huo Yi.

Looking at the mountains and forests shrouded in the distance, Huo Yi was confused and gradually recalled the past when he served as the prince's servant for Liu Chan, remembered the study with Liu Chan, also remembered the scene when he accompanied Liu Chan and grew up with Liu Chan, and also remembered the scene when he met Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wei and others. The turbid tears slowly flowed down Huo Yi's old cheeks...

"Your Majesty, it's not that the old minister is unfaithful and surrenders to Wei shamelessly, but that I must think about your safety. When you arrive in Luoyang, your life will be left to your hands. If the old minister does not surrender, what will happen to the Wei people who are not good for you?"

"Prime Minister, I really don't want to surrender to the Wei thieves. I also want to inherit your will, command the Han army to attack Cao Wei in the north, and restore the Central Plains, but even Your Majesty surrendered. What can I do? What can I do?"

"General, after the death of the last general, you are the one who is most shameless to see. In order to inherit the will of the prime minister, you have made nine northern expeditions to the Central Plains, sleeping in the open and fighting bloody battles, and suffered thousands of hardships. After death, they were even cut off by the Wei people to take their gallbladders. But what about the last general? They commanded tens of thousands of people, and were surrounded by the dangers of mountains and rivers, but before they saw the Wei people, they surrendered to the Wei thieves. In front of you, the last general was so ashamed that they were ashamed..."

"Biao'er, Meng'er, grandfather is not afraid of death, but grandfather is really worried about you. One of you was captured by the thief army, and your life and death are still uncertain. The other one is a girl. If you fall into the thief army, what will happen if you fall into the thief army? Grandfather really dares not think about it..."

He muttered in a daze, Huo Yi fell asleep, and then, after some time, Huo Yi suddenly woke up by Yan Ji's shouting and shaking. After quickly opening his eyes, Huo Yi was shocked to find that there were two intact Snickers on his body, and his precious granddaughter Huo Meng disappeared.

"What happened? Where did Meng'er go?" Huo Yi asked quickly.

Yan Ji's answer almost made Huo Yi faint, and he said anxiously: "Governor, Sun Yushu has gone down the mountain, and she has gone down the mountain alone!"

"She went down the mountain alone? What did she do?" Huo Yi roared wildly and said angrily: "Why don't you stop her?"

"Report to the governor, the soldiers guarding the mountain reported that Sun Yushu sent an order that you asked her to go down the mountain to negotiate with the thief army, so our soldiers guarding the mountain did not stop us." Yan Ji explained: "Then the officials saw Sun Yushu going down the mountain alone and asked about this before they knew what happened."

Huo Yi didn't dare to hesitate anymore, so he jumped up and rushed to the only gentle slope leading to the mountain. As a result, when he reached the gentle slope, Huo Yi was scattered again and saw that his precious granddaughter had already walked to the Han army alone, facing thousands of Han army jackals alone...

…………

On Zhang Zhi's side, when he saw Huo Meng walking down the mountain alone, the Han soldiers immediately reported the situation to Zhang Zhi. Zhang Zhi initially said that Huo Yi sent people down the mountain to negotiate the conditions for surrender. In addition to ordering the soldiers not to shoot arrows, he hurriedly led Zhang Zheng, Zhao Quan and others to meet the intersection. Then he was still approaching the person who came. Zhang Zhicai was extremely dumbfounded by Huo Yi's precious granddaughter Huo Meng!

He was shocked, because Zhang Zhi soon saw that Huo Meng was holding a sharp dagger in his hand and pointed it at the heart of her chest. Zhang Zhi was so scared that he shouted, "Yu Shu, what are you doing? Let it go, it's very dangerous to do this! Put the knife down!"

Huo Meng ignored Zhang Zhi's desperate yelling, but continued to point his dagger at his chest, slowly walked down the gentle slope, and walked carefully to Zhang Zhi. Then Huo Meng opened his mouth and said calmly: "Let my grandfather go, I'll marry you."

"What did you say?" Zhang Zhi almost suspected that he had heard the wrong ears. Zhang Zheng, Zhao Quan and others next to him were also confused, not understanding why Huo Meng made such a fuss.

The mountain wind blew Huo Meng's fluffy hair, and the hair shook Huo Meng's pretty face, which was both sacred and solemn, and said word by word: "Didn't you say, do you want to marry me? I'll marry! But I have a condition, that is, let my grandfather go, otherwise, I will die in front of you immediately, so that you will never get me!"
