Chapter 12: Distress from the General
In the face of this unexpected and exciting scene, the herald couldn't help but turn on the crazy spit mode in his heart, never expected that General Li was really the first god general in Dongzhou, and the enemy was still in such a mood to be close to the people, and he was so excited to play a small game of raising high and kissing me with his soldiers.
At this time, I was glad in my heart that General Li did not take a fancy to him, otherwise he would not have been forced to sacrifice...... Thinking of this, the herald trembled, and goosebumps appeared on his arm.
Li Qiu, who was ruthlessly interrupted for the first time to kiss him, was out of breath at this time, he reluctantly let go of Li Mingyue, and strode to the very uninteresting herald.
The herald shrank in fright, and he muttered to himself, could it be that the general suddenly discovered that under his ordinary appearance, there was actually something else chic. If the Shogun wants him to sacrifice his body now, he should succumb to the Shogun's obscenity...... Or is it a symbolic rebellion, and then succumb to the adult's obscenity?
The herald trembled and prepared to accept the storm from Li Qiu, and while the herald was thinking wildly, Li Qiu was glaring at the herald viciously.
"Tell me the truth, how long will our army be able to resist the attack of the Shadow Thieves. Li Qiu asked hurriedly.
The herald came back to his senses and removed his shameful distractions from his mind, and with his many years of experience in the army, he hesitated to tell Li Qiu: "General, according to the estimation of his subordinates, our army can only hold on to one cup of tea at most, and if it does not play well, it may only take half a cup of tea. ”
Is it possible to discount the time of just a cup of tea? Li Qiu angrily scolded the incompetence of his soldiers in his heart, he just tied a thousand pigs in the barracks and put them there, and the bandits of the Shadow Thieves Regiment wanted to deal with them for more than this time, they were really a bunch of unassuming waste.
Forget it, the matter has come to this point, Li Qiu doesn't think about it anymore, there is no point in dwelling on these things now, after all, he usually doesn't really expect that these stupid soldiers can play a great role.
The time was too hasty, and it was almost impossible for him and Li Mingyue to get out completely now, Li Qiu thought helplessly, since this is the case, he has to make a trade-off.
The herald winced and looked at Li Qiu, who had a cloudy look on his face.
Li Qiu let out a long sigh, and then quickly ordered: "You go out and tell all the brothers that once the Shadow Thieves Troupe attacks our camp, no one is allowed to resist, and they will directly disarm and surrender to the other party, remember...... No one is allowed to resist, and no one is allowed to provoke the other party. ”
Hearing the military order issued by Li Qiu, the herald was stunned and couldn't close his mouth in surprise.
The herald looked at Li Qiu in disbelief and asked, "General, are you serious, do you want your brothers to surrender en masse...... The kind of direct surrender without even the slightest resistance?"
Surrender if you can't fight is not a new topic among the various clans on land, but the lord will strictly prohibit his soldiers from resisting and personally take the lead in surrendering the whole army to the enemy.
If this matter unfortunately spreads back to Dongzhou Kingdom, it will definitely cause the anger of the civilians in the country, just the saliva sprayed on them is enough to take a bath, and they will not have the face to continue to stay in the army in the future, at least make a little resistance...... The herald whispered to Li Qiu.
"Are you teaching me how to do things? I will surrender when I say surrender, knowing that I can't defeat the Shadow Thieves, do you still want to force you to go up and die...... The order to surrender is what I said, and I will bear all the responsibility for going back to Dongzhou in the future. Li Qiu shouted loudly, if it weren't for the fact that you scumbags didn't give up, would he have fallen into such an embarrassing situation as a high-spirited and majestic general.
The herald didn't dare to say a word, so he nodded helplessly in agreement. He was just about to turn around and leave the tent when he shouted to Li Qiu again.
"By the way, you go and tell all the brothers, wait a minute, no one is allowed to take the initiative to reveal my identity to the bandits, as long as no one exposes me, and when I return to Dongzhou, I will be rewarded in private. After Li Qiu finished speaking, he still felt uneasy in his heart.
Li Qiu paused, and then continued to add: "Tell the brothers, what the Shadow Thieves really want is ransom, not everyone's heads, as long as I can live safely, someone will naturally send a lot of money to the Shadow Thieves Troupe, I swear to God that I will redeem myself for everyone, I am the most honest general." ”
The herald was excited, but he didn't expect that General Li, who was standing in front of him, was such a good person with responsibility and courage.
"Don't forget that I'm the son of a great general, not only is I poor and only have money left, but I'm also famous for my words, follow me to ensure that everyone has a way to live. Li Qiu repeatedly instructed the herald soldiers, as for keeping his promises and saying a word, Li Qiu himself would never believe it.
The herald was deeply impressed by the empty check issued by Li Qiu, he looked at Li Qiu with respect on his face, and said affectionately: "General, you really love soldiers like children, and your subordinates want to cry when they are moved by your words...... Ah, I can't help it, I'm going to cry out loud ....... ”
Gan, I cry you big banana, do you want to give me a funeral as soon as possible, Li Qiu thought angrily.
"Get out. Li Qiu interrupted the herald's clumsy crying performance, and he kicked the herald out of the camp.
It's not a bitter drama where you can be hit by a meteor when you stay at home, it's a waste of his time to talk nonsense here, Li Qiu Huoran turned around, and he saw the delicate and weak Li Mingyue sitting at the table with a red face, a pretty little face with a different style, and even her snow-white neck was like a layer of gorgeous rouge.
Li Mingyue's eyes were full of admiration, she stared at Li Qiu, and whispered: "Brother Li Qiu, I really didn't see the wrong person, you are really a good person." ”
Okay, you're a big-headed ghost, if Li Qiu could hear this kind of rainbow fart from Li Mingyue's mouth in normal times, his hormones would definitely be doubled. It's a pity that now Li Qiu is difficult to protect himself, and there are hardships, so he smiled helplessly at Li Mingyue.
Besides, how could he, Li Qiu, be qualified to be called a good person, all his rhetoric was just an excuse to save his life.
Li Qiu ignored Li Mingyue's affectionate gaze, he thought with a headache, the biggest problem now is Li Mingyue, without further ado, Li Qiu hurriedly urged: "Your Royal Highness Princess, even if we don't make any resistance, it will take a while for the people of the Shadow Thieves Regiment to successfully collect these soldiers under me, take advantage of this great opportunity for you to quickly slip away from the back camp, and when you return to Changzhi City, you will find Pan Taishou to send someone to send money to ransom me back." ”
When Li Mingyue heard this, she pursed her mouth very unhappily, bowed her head silently, and clearly expressed to Li Qiu that she refused to cooperate.
Li Qiu saw Li Mingyue sitting there with his head down and not speaking, he persuaded more anxiously: "You heard me say that the people of the Shadow Thieves Group only care about money, and they will not harm us soldiers, you are a princess, if you stay here, it will bring a lot of trouble to everyone." ”
"No, Brother Li Qiu, don't deceive me, I will never leave you alone to run for my life. Li Mingyue raised her head angrily, put on a posture like a princess, and shouted at Li Qiu with a displeased expression.
Li Qiu was almost in a hurry and burst open the blood vessels in his brain on the spot, and died directly on the spot. Seeing Li Mingyue's self-righteous appearance, he asked puzzledly: "What did I deceive you, everything I said was for your good." ”
Li Mingyue stood up and stomped her feet, muttering stupidly, "You're just lying to me...... Do you think I don't know...... In fact, you just want to drive me away, so that you can have no worries, so that you can go and fight hard with Tuoba without burden, you are thinking about me, and I am not a person who is afraid of death. I won't back down, even if you and I really die, I'm going to die with you. ”
Stunned, Li Qiu was completely stunned, he was choked by Li Mingyue's self-righteous analysis, and he had nothing to say. The conscience of heaven and earth...... He Li Qiu swore to the sky that he was really cowardly, and he had no intention of fighting to the death with Tuoba at all.
Li Qiu himself couldn't figure out why his image in Li Mingyue's mind was so great, what was the illusion he caused to Li Mingyue, he would definitely correct it in time when he went back.
Li Qiu's idea is very simple, since there is not enough time for him and Li Mingyue to escape, and he is the commander-in-chief, if the person is not in the barracks, the Shadow Thieves Regiment will inevitably send cavalry to hunt him down, and he might as well stay here honestly and drag the Shadow Thieves Regiment.
Li Mingyue is both a princess and a daughter, if her identity is exposed, God knows if the bandits who have been holding back in the deserted wasteland for a long time will do something to her...... I'll smack you...... Smacked to the delight...... Everyone takes turns to snap and bang together.
The safest way for Li Qiu to think of was for him to stay and attract the attention of the bandits, and then wait for Li Mingyue, who had fled back to Changzhi City, to come up with a better way before rescuing him. As long as these soldiers under his command don't take the initiative to reveal his identity as the general's son to Tuoba Ji, Tuoba Ji will treat him as an ordinary Dongzhou General at most, and he won't kill him even if he will make things difficult for him.
Li Qiu calmed down his anxious mood for a while, and patiently persuaded again: "Your Royal Highness Princess, I am here to assure you...... I will definitely not fight with Tuobaji, I will honestly stay in the lair of the Shadow Thieves, waiting for you to come to rescue me wearing soft armor, stepping on auspicious clouds of any color, and holding a long sword with a domineering appearance. ”
Li Mingyue snorted, crossed her hands in front of her chest, and put on a posture of uncompromising and completely unreasonable: "Brother Li Qiu, don't persuade me again, I really won't leave you, no matter how much you say, I won't leave." ”
Li Mingyue finished her words word by word, and anyone could hear the firmness in her words, and when the words fell, Li Mingyue sat firmly on the edge of the table, staring at Li Qiu with beautiful eyes and a resolute attitude.
Gan, Li Qiu's eyes were black and his mind was dizzy, he wondered, why did women be arrogant and didn't make sense at all, and what made him even more powerless to complain was when did he and Li Mingyue have such unswerving emotions?
This is not normal logic and reasonableness at all, could it be that he Li Qiu has some kind of fatal attraction that he himself doesn't know, so that a woman can willingly accompany him to die.
