Chapter 435: Temporarily Retire
The horns of retreat echoed across the battlefield.
Liu Meng, who was at a stalemate with Harold at this time, did not fight after hearing the sound of the horn, and immediately began to retreat.
But how could those barbarians just let them go? Determined to kill all the way.
How can Zhang Lue and others on the wall be ambiguous when they see this? I saw him wave his hand, "Smash it for me!"
Wooden barrels filled with kerosene kept hitting those barbarians.
At this time, it was clear what Zhang Lue wanted to do.
Just after Liu Meng led his troops into the city, Zhang Lue decisively turned the fire, and the outside of Baihe City instantly turned into a sea of fire!
Standing on the wall, Zhang Lue glanced at the long-haired monster in the distance, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.
If possible, he really wanted to burn the hairy monster to death.
It's a pity that the hairy monster and the barbarian sitting on the monster's back are very alert.
It seems that when they threw the barrels, they sensed something was wrong and retreated early.
This made Zhang Lue feel both regret and annoyance.
He never thought that to deal with a bunch of barbarians, he would need to use kerosene to forcibly persuade him to retreat.
In the beginning, it was not intended to be used at all. After all, kerosene is an important resource for their Myriad Realms civilization.
Especially in the winter when the weather is getting colder and it has even started to snow, the value of this kerosene is even higher.
After smashing so many buckets all at once, Zhang Lue felt a pain in his own mind.
This one, no matter how, they all lost a lot of money.
But at this moment, he didn't have time to hurt for too long.
Zhang Lue, who was praying for another thing in his heart, hurried towards the city gate.
Before anyone could get close, Liu Meng's full-bodied voice came from a long distance.
"What are you doing standing here stupidly? What should I do? I'm fine, General!"
Seeing Liu Meng who was so angry that he was blowing his beard and staring at him, the soldiers surrounding him breathed a sigh of relief.
But Zhang Lue had doubts in his heart.
How could it be okay after being hit by such a burly ice bear for more than ten meters?
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Lue hurriedly walked up.
After seeing Zhang Lue, Liu Meng's eyes suddenly lit up, "Zhang Lue, you came just in time, find something to do for these bastards, hurry up and leave me!"
"Is it really okay?"
As this thought flashed by, Zhang Lue couldn't help but glanced at Liu Meng again. At this time, Liu Meng couldn't see any reluctance in his appearance.
In any case, it was a good thing that Liu Meng was fine, which greatly relieved him.
"Let's go, go to the barracks to discuss what will happen next."
While speaking, Liu Meng took the lead and walked towards the barracks. He didn't forget to say hello to the soldiers he bumped into along the way.
This is basically the same as usual, which makes Zhang Lue completely relieved.
The two walked into the barracks one after the other.
After entering the combat conference room, Liu Meng, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
"Is the door closed?"
"Closed..."
Halfway through the words, just when Zhang Lue wondered why Liu Meng didn't continue to move forward, a mouthful of blood was spit out from Liu Meng's mouth so suddenly.
Zhang Lue's heart twitched violently, his mouth opened, and he almost exclaimed.
But he quickly realized the current situation, and he swallowed the words that rushed to his mouth!
Then he quickly reached out to support Liu Meng, who was about to fall to the ground.
"General, General, you are now..."
"Relax, don't worry, I shouldn't die..."
Looking at Liu Meng's bloodless face at this time, Zhang Lue realized that Liu Meng was actually holding on.
He quickly untied Liu Meng's dented bronze breastplate, only then did Zhang Lue discover that it wasn't just the breastplate that was dented.
The shocking injury caused Zhang Lue's pupils to shrink for a while.
He couldn't imagine how Liu Meng had been able to hold on until now when he was outside the barracks!
But what he knew was that Liu Meng's serious injury must not be made public.
The defending general was seriously injured and bedridden? As soon as this news spreads, it will definitely affect the morale of the White River City defenders.
The barbarians outside the city are not easy to deal with. If the morale drops again, how will they fight?
"I'm seriously, I'm seriously injured, no, don't say anything..."
"Don't worry, General, you will understand at the end."
Hearing this, Zhang Lue hurriedly responded, and then said again, "General, please rest in this conference room for a while, and then I will send a trusted confidant to secretly bring the doctor here!"
"Well, hand it, hand it to you."
Liu Meng, who said this, showed a reassuring expression.
However, Zhang Lue, who saw Liu Meng's appearance, was full of shame.
But now is not the time to be upset and ashamed.
Zhang Lue adjusted the armor on his body, and then opened the door with a dignified expression on his face as usual. At this time, being cautious was even more noticeable.
Immediately afterwards, a close friend was quickly called. This soldier followed him when he was still working under Zhao Pan's tent. He was someone who was absolutely trustworthy.
"Take my arrow and find the best doctor in the city, but you have to remember that all this has to be done quietly, understand?"
The soldier was obviously quite clever, and when he took Zhang Lue Ling's arrow, he was already aware of what happened.
Then he just answered with a serious look on his face, "Please rest assured, General, this matter will definitely be handled properly by the humble post."
"Well, let's go, be quick."
"Yes, go back when you go to the post!"
There are so many soldiers in the barracks, but he is the only one who can become Zhang Lue's cronies. In addition to loyalty, his ability to handle affairs is undoubtedly crucial.
The soldiers quickly brought the doctor over.
During this whole process, with Zhang Lue, the deputy general of Baihe City, personally cooperating, naturally there was no accident.
After taking the doctor into the tactical conference room, he looked at Liu Meng who was lying there, unconscious. The doctor gasped on the spot, "Sir General, he's seriously injured."
No need for nonsense, the doctor who put down the medicine box quickly helped Liu Meng diagnose.
After the diagnosis, Zhang Lue quickly asked, "How is the general's injury?"
"Very serious."
The doctor's answer made Zhang Lue's whole heart sank, "How serious is it?"
"The general's chest has at least three broken ribs, but this is not the most serious. The most serious part is that the internal organs are injured."
"Without three or four months of recuperation, it is impossible to recover." The doctor who said this was full of difficulty. Now the army of barbarians is outside Baihe City, but Liu Meng has injured the city like this. Just thinking about it. , Everyone knows that White River City is in danger.
"Anyway, please ask the doctor to treat the general's injury first."
"Yes, Xiaomin must do his best!"
