Chapter 183: The Dead Are Gone

"Let me come!"

Suddenly, there was a tragic neigh, a tall black-armored figure seemed to leap into the sky, it seemed to cover the glimmer of the lantern on the high platform, and the long knife was accompanied by a cold glow, which seemed to shine at that moment with eyes comparable to the red sun, Deng Zhun only had the knife in his eyes, and that person, no, it was a killing god.

The knife falls.

Deng Zhun's green steel knife was cut into two pieces.

Deng Zhun's head rolled down, and blood stained the loess.

Deng Zhun died.

Too many people were surprised by this scene, and they didn't even see clearly who swung the knife that could cut Deng Zhun's green steel knife that was far beyond the quality of ordinary soldiers.

Sun Huan, Mu Yucheng, and Lu Chu were shocked when they saw this scene, they didn't expect Deng Zhun to be killed like this, and they didn't expect that Meng Lang, who was contaminated with the epidemic, would actually stand on the battlefield again, although his face now looked a little hideous, the blisters on his face were broken, and there seemed to be bruises on his arms that had not been washed, although he was wrapped in a tight layer of black armor, but Mu Yucheng and Lu Chu knew each other.

"How could he be alive? Didn't you say that there was no cure for the disease?"

Mu Yucheng's eyes were full of surprise, Lu Chu was even more silent, Meng Lang suddenly appeared, so that they suddenly lost the ability to fight again, but Sun Huan shouted, and woke up the soldiers from surprise, he said: "Everyone, the death of General Deng Zhun is our dereliction of duty, if we can't bring General Deng Jung's body back to the barracks, I'm afraid we will be able to escape the blame." Soldiers, follow me to kill!"

The Qin army once again mustered great courage and rushed out to the heavy cavalry, Deng Zhun as a highly prestigious general of the Qin army, his death made this army a real mourning soldier, thus stimulating the army's combat ability, in the continuous rush, the defense of the heavy cavalry was really opened a gap, even if Lin Han led the army to block, but there was still no way to stop them outside.

The Qin army was like a wild beast out of control, quickly penetrating the two Wohua Mountain military camp, after snatching back Deng Zhun's corpse, the momentum still did not decay at all, under the leadership of Sun Huan, broke a heavy Wohua Mountain defense army, and killed thousands of people before slowly falling to the edge.

Lin Han hurriedly gathered heavy cavalry and archers and shield soldiers again to form a new barrier, which really blocked the Qin army outside the camp, Sun Huan felt that it was impossible to achieve anything if he continued to fight, so he Ming Jin withdrew his troops, at this time the battle in the north had just ended, and after the convergence of these two Qin armies, there were still about 20,000 people, and their losses were only less than 2,000 people and a general of an eight-stage martial arts master.

Although the battlefield in the north has Chu Hong's timely support, the army that is several times their size is still almost breaking through the defense line; the battlefield in the west has lost nearly 4,000 people, and the wounded are even more numerous.

Lin Han also seemed to realize that his final command was ineffective, although there was no big mistake, but he could not turn the heavy cavalry into an indestructible shield like Liang Jin, which led to a large-scale chaos in the army of Wohua Mountain when Sun Huan was waiting for the army to rush and kill, which made Sun Huan take advantage of the opportunity, resulting in so many casualties.

"I still can't be the main general!"

Lin Han laughed at himself, his eyes were full of guilt and apology, and Liang Jin, Luo Hu, and Meng Lang were also a little emotional, but they were not to blame. Lin Han was not very good at these methods, but he had to face such a strong attack tonight, and it was not surprising that he was negligent, not to mention that Sun Huan finally boosted morale, making the Qin army far braver than usual, and it was not incomprehensible that he suffered losses.

Liang Jin sighed lightly and said, "The current situation is not caused by you alone, if a few of us are in this position, we may not do better than you." ”

Lin Han was silent for a long time before turning his head to Meng Lang and said, "Mengzi, is your illness cured?"

Meng Lang paused, a trace of sadness crossed his eyes, and said, "Okay, but there are some small problems, is Jiang Ming familiar with the old gentleman who treated me?"

Lin Han and the three of them showed strange expressions again, as he found that Meng Lang seemed to be hiding some secrets.

When Jiang Ming was supported by Chu Hong and walked towards Meng Lang's tent, he could smell the rancid smell from a long distance, Meng Lang stood beside him and said in a low voice: "The old gentleman helped me cut through all the flesh and skin of the blood on my body, and the blood was full of the source of the epidemic. The process was not so simple, he used his own blood as a guide, and then used an extremely complicated method to guide the source of the epidemic in my body around the big hole, so that I was able to cleanse my internal organs and let me escape from the nightmare of the epidemic. But it was not until the end that I realized that this was not a cure for the plague at all, but a method of exchanging life for life, and that when the old gentleman removed the source of the plague from me, he also fell ill with the plague, and his skin had rotted at that time, and he died......

"What?"

Everyone was surprised, Jiang Ming looked incredulous, snatched the jade Ruyi from Meng Lang's hand, opened the curtain and walked in, the others also wanted to walk in, but were stopped by Meng Lang, the corpse of the current tea refiner is the source of the epidemic, if it is contacted, it will also suffer.

After a long time, Jiang Ming walked out of it, his body was crooked, this posture was caused by his battle with Qiong Leshuang, but at this moment, when he saw the dead old man, he was even weaker.

Jiang Ming's eyes were hollow, looking at Meng Lang after all, he didn't say anything, and then looked at Lin Han, who actually covered his face with his palm, because he found that there was a cold tear flowing down his eyes, and he felt the frightening cold liquid, and he couldn't help but fall to his knees with a soft body.

Everyone was shocked, although they knew the truth that the tea refiner had exchanged his life for his life to save Meng Lang, but they didn't know why Jiang Ming's emotions were so out of control?

Jiang Ming let out a long breath, looked at the ground blankly, his voice was hoarse, and said, "He asked me to save my life and guard against autumn, but I don't know what he means yet." Then he asked me if I had to save Meng Lang, and I said yes, but he still didn't have any other expression. He entrusted his daughter to me again, and told me to take care of it, and I thought that he was going to go somewhere else after this incident, but I didn't understand that he was really going to ...... for the last time."

The crowd was silent.

Jiang Ming said abruptly: "The seventh act, Chang An must have known that in order to complete the transaction with me, he did not hesitate to exchange the life of the old tea refiner. Act Seven, Act Seven, Keeping Me in the Dark, if I knew it would be like this, if I knew that he was going to save Meng Lang with his own life, how could I agree? He was not the only one, he had his daughter, and the White Girl was now alone again!"

With a little relief, Jiang Ming felt physically and mentally tired, and he watched Meng Lang come back to life, although there was still joy in his heart, but he couldn't be happy. There is never a cure for the epidemic, and it was Jiang Ming who chose this path, forcing the tea refiner to become a victim.

"It's my fault...... It's my fault......"

"Poof!"

Jiang Ming's heart was depressed, and he was seriously injured, and a mouthful of blood spit out from his mouth, his eyes turned black, and he fell to the ground.

"Jiang Ming!"

"Jiang Ming!"

Liang Jin and Luo Hu supported Jiang Ming, and after checking that there was nothing abnormal in his snort, everyone carried him back to the camp to recuperate.

Meng Lang looked guilty as Jiang Ming was carried away, as if something was stuck in his throat, so that he could no longer say a word. 139 Chinese

Lin Han walked over, patted Meng Lang's shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, Jiang Ming doesn't blame you, you don't have to think about it!"

Meng Lang's eyes were empty, he froze for a long time, and said yes.

Qianfeng Inn, Chang An received the news about the battle situation in the Jiaozhi Plain tonight, but he smiled slightly, and said: "It's still good, I didn't expect that the few commanders of Wohua Mountain are really capable, and they actually recovered their strength close to seven or eight by relying on a red phosphorus pill, and they really blocked Pang Lu's two Wanjia attack troops." What makes me most curious is that Meng Lang, the five commanders of Wohua Mountain, was able to directly support the battlefield after being saved by Lao Bai in exchange for his life, and even beheaded Deng Zhun together, which is really amazing!"

Hao and Miao followed behind Chang An, and when they heard these words, Hao's brows frowned, and he said, "Landlord, is it really impossible to save Bai Lao?"

Chang An sighed in a low voice: "Lao Bai has also helped me a lot over the years, but it's a pity that he didn't die this time, there is no cure for the epidemic, he can save Meng Lang by exchanging his life for his life, which is already very good." It was his own choice, and it was a helpless move. ”

Hao said: "That white girl ......"

Chang An patted Hao's shoulder and said, "I know you have a friendship with Xiaobai, but after this incident, Xiaobai will never contact us again, after all, I can be regarded as her indirect murderer." Lao Bai paid for his life in exchange for the Voice of Freedom for her, you can let her leave the Qianfeng Inn freely tomorrow, and then let the director give her 100,000 taels of silver, which can be regarded as the best explanation of the friendship between master and servant over the years. ”

Hao and Miao had emotion in their hearts, but in the face of the words of the landlord Chang An, they did not have the slightest sense of daring to resist, so they could only say yes in silence.

In the darkness, the flower arranger girl heard this conversation, and he also has a seven-stage martial arts cultivation, so he can hide in the shadows and not be discovered by the patrol. Hao and Miao must have noticed her, but they also seemed to be merciful and did not show it to Chang An.

At this time, her tears were already hanging all over her cheeks, she was sobbing silently, and her relatives who had finally appeared died again, how helpless her heart should be!

Her eyes flashed with a hint of determination, and she returned to her room, and after simply packing up her things, she climbed over the wall and walked out of the Qianfeng Inn, the mysterious organization hidden in the beautiful inn, and finally there was no reason for her to stay.

Since then, there have been no flower arrangers.

In Pang Lu's military camp, when he heard the news of Deng Zhun's death, Pang Lu was a little unconvinced, until he saw Deng Zhun's separated corpse, he finally understood that the two generals he trusted the most had finally fallen.

Although Sun Huan's generals knelt on the ground and asked for punishment, Pang Lu had no other thoughts.

Pang Lu recalled that for so many years, Deng Zhun and Zhao were most on the battlefield with him, from the unknown captains to the generals of the entire dynasty, they were his last reliance, but now they have died one after another, he sighed: "Sure enough, it's old!"

Pang Lu slowly left the council hall, and the other generals did not dare to say a word.

If the purpose of Pang Lu's battle is to establish meritorious service, then the reason why he lost his will to fight again is the death of his two generals, Deng Zhun and Zhao Zhi's strength has reached the peak of the eighth stage, and they are at the middle and upper level among the generals, but they are the only generals who have died in battle since the war.

The dead don't need to be shrouded in horse leather, and the dead don't need to be confined to the grave, Lu Xingyang is a general who understands Pang Lu's thoughts, and he has served as an assistant under Pang Lu for many days, he walked in from outside the hall, and only said lightly: "Cremate the body of Brigadier General Deng!"

Lou finally said: "General Lu Xingyang, is this what Governor Pang Lu means?"

The generals waited eagerly for Lu Xingyang's answer, Lu Xingyang paused, and said: "Brigadier General Deng is the governor's general who has been fighting for decades, both a subordinate and a comrade-in-arms, and the governor of Pang Lu means a truce for a few days. The generals were not to blame for the battle tonight, the Governor said, it was all his strategic mistake. Generals, let's go back and fix it!"

Sun Huan breathed a sigh of relief, but as if he had made a decision, he walked out of the meeting hall quickly.

The next day, Jiang Ming woke up from his slumber again, this time with no one else waiting around him, not even Mu Ya again. He stood up and moved his muscles, although he was injured in the battle with Qiong Leshuang last night, but the injury was not very serious, the key was that he was out of the way seriously, and after a little rest, he had enough strength.

He exhaled a breath of turbidity, as if to throw out all the memories in his mind, but these childish methods were useless, he had to walk out of the camp, the dazzling sunlight suddenly pierced his eyes, he looked at the position of the sun, judged that it was already noon, and suddenly felt a little hungry in his stomach, but when he wanted to find a guard to go to the Huotou camp to find some food, he found that there was no one in more than a dozen camps nearby, and even Mu Ya's camp was not anyone.

Just when Jiang Ming was puzzled, two soldiers suddenly came running from a distance, and they turned out to be the two sentry detectives of Wohua Mountain that he had rescued in the Jiaozhi Mountain Range, one was called Fan Qiong, and the other was called Wuda. The two ran over, and Fan Qiong said: "General Jiang Ming, the commanders said that they asked you to go to the main camp tent to talk about something, I don't know if there is anything important, but the commanders are nervous, and it seems that there is something in trouble again." ”

"Okay!" Jiang Mingdao looked at the two of them for a moment and said, "Aren't you two serving as sentinels, why are you here now?"

Fan Qiong said: "The general doesn't know, both of us have become sixth-stage martial artists in recent days, and now they have been transferred back to the battalion as captains, and now they are serving in the sixth battalion, General Jiang Ming is half the commander of the sixth battalion, and we can be regarded as the general's battalion." ”

Jiang Ming finally heard the reason, so he said again: "I'm hungry now, can I go to the stove to find leftovers to fill my stomach first." ”

Fan Qiong said: "General, go to the main camp first, and we will bring you the food in a while." ”

Jiang Ming walked towards the main tent, when he passed by Meng Lang's tent, he found that the tents in that area had moved, and Meng Lang's tent was also burning with a raging fire, he knew what the reason was, but he still couldn't help but feel sad.

When he came to the main tent, he found that everyone was waiting for him, Liang Jin, Luo Hu, Meng Lang, Lin Han, Chu Hong, Huanziyu, Mu Ya and Yin Wan, and even Hai Luo, the representative of the snake girl brought back by Lin Han, what surprised Jiang Ming the most was that Yu Bu was also in the tent.

Jiang Ming looked at this harmonious scene and said with a wry smile: "What are you doing today?

He was not the first to agree, and said, "You are injured again, and you still haven't fought with me, I know that you are also surprised, but you must remember that I rescued you before." ”

Lin Han looked at Jiang Ming's embarrassed appearance and said, "Mr. Yu Bushi was called by me, because he saved you before, so I will regard him as a part of us for the time being, and what I want to talk about today is a big event, I'm afraid I have to alarm him." ”

Jiang Ming's face was questioning, and he said, "What the hell is going on, so exciting." ”

Liang Jin said: "There are two things, big and big, small and small. First, we will run out of grain and grass, but the grain transport team that was sent out early has not yet arrived, if we do not have enough grain and grass. Not to mention that they can't feed the cavalry, even ordinary soldiers will face great problems. The second thing, and more serious, you should have heard about the fever poison incident in the barracks a long time ago, just today, our preliminary statistics, the number of people suffering from fever has exceeded 100 people, although this disease is not as deadly as the epidemic, but the speed of infection is extremely alarming, the way of infection is also strange, the patient will have a rash at first, and then itching is unbearable, and the appetite is gradually lost, the body is getting weaker and weaker, which greatly affects the combat effectiveness of our army, if it is not suppressed in time, our army may no longer be able to fight. ”

"Is it so serious?" Jiang Ming was secretly surprised, and then asked, "Isn't there anything Doctor Zhou can do?"

Liang Jin said: "A few days ago, Hanzi had already asked Doctor Zhou to deal with it, although the treatment of this fever is not a problem, but it is difficult to take time, a patient will take at least more than ten days to fully recover, and the fever has a repetitive nature, if such a hot and dry weather continues, they may suffer from fever again." We have discussed with Mr. Mu Ya that the military camp will be temporarily moved to the Cochin Mountains, and we will strategically retreat and wait for this hot weather to pass before we consider moving the camp back. ”

Mu Ya nodded and said: "Although Chang Yun in the art of war, 'the camp is not in the forest', what I am afraid of is the enemy's method of attacking with fire, but the shadowy woods of the Cochin Mountains do not have the advantage of fire attack, and because there are many streams and water sources, it can solve the water source problem of our army, so it is inevitable to move the camp." ”
