Chapter 153: Return
The rain is dripping. Wang Yun didn't care about it and let the rain get wet.
Kneeling on the ground, digging through the rain-soaked earth with the blade of his knife. When he was tired, he rested with his knife, and when he had the strength, Wang Yun began to dig the land again.
The half-immortal palm beside Ye Qinghui did not completely kill him, but allowed him to escape death. But this is not what Wang Yun wants, all his brothers have been lost, and he is still alive, which is undoubtedly another knife in his chest.
When Wang Yun woke up to see the corpses all over the ground, he let out a heart-rending wail, which was an attempt to call back those brothers who had "slumbered". However, it was all in vain. When his spirit really recovered, Wang Yun had already understood that everything was already a fact and could not be changed.
When he woke up, he forgot about Ye Qinghui and forgot that he was going to the Eastern Front to find Yan Yi, and only the past between himself and his brothers was left in his mind. The picture ranges from the earliest enlistment in the army, serving in Yasukuni, to escaping from Chudu, running thousands of miles, and finally brothers treating each other with all sincerity, but seeking to die together. The picture came to an abrupt end, the brothers really died together, but he was left behind, and he was still alive and well.
Wang Yun, who was still alive, did not wield a knife to kill himself, but knelt on the ground and dug a pit silently to send his brothers on their last journey.
With his eyes dilated and his hands repeating the action of digging, Wang Yun was like a soulless machine at the moment. Wang Long, Wang Hu, and others reappeared one by one, but only the reappearance of memories remained.
The rain stopped, and a rainbow fell into the sunlight among the peaks in sight. And Wang Yun was still silent, digging.
......
After dealing with Wang Yun and the others, Ye Qinghui rushed back to Jingmen non-stop, but he didn't know that two days after he left, a rain actually brought Wang Yun back to life. But I know what, I'm already a mortal enemy, it's a big deal to kill again. All he can remember now is Ye Qingchuan's safety.
At the gate of Jingmen, Ye Qingchuan also received the news that Ye Qinghui was about to return. Gently stroking the carrier pigeon delivering the letter in his hand, Ye Qingchuan's eyes looked at the faintly visible Jingmen.
"How is the inside of Chudu now?" Ye Qingchuan released the carrier pigeon and said without looking back.
He only wants to strangle Jingmen and Mu Dao, so as to trap the Jing army in Chudu. But Yuan Jie's slaughter of the city completely challenged Ye Qingchuan's bottom line, and if he had the opportunity to fight back, Ye Qingchuan would not wait, even if he was trapped for a period of time and Chu was undoubtedly short of food, he would not wait like this, it was about dignity and human nature.
At this point, it's time to counterattack.
"Back to the king, according to the report of our spies who stayed in the capital, after Yuan Jie slaughtered the city that day, everyone in Chudu was in danger, and all families closed their doors one after another, lest they would harm the fish in the pond. And this also increased the arrogance of Yuan Jie and his subordinates, and now they can be said to be doing all kinds of evil in the capital. ”
"It's me who hurt Chudu and others. Ye Qingchuan said: "Let him be arrogant for three points first, and the day of settling accounts is not far away." ”
Yuan Jie's slaughter of the city made everyone's hearts hold a fire, although the Dart Sect was not with the Chu State, but people always have feelings, and it is inevitable that the rabbit will die and the fox will be sad. What's more, there are ordinary people in it who are dedicated to the Chu State, and those are the pond fish that are really affected, which makes Ye Qingchuan really sad.
Tomorrow night, Ye Qinghui and the others will rush back, Ye Qingchuan looked at the Jingmen Gate, and his eyes showed the ruthlessness of killing.
......
Wang Yun didn't know how long he had been digging, and his hands and feet had already become numb.
Only the faith in his heart still supports him to continue.
When he was hungry, he wiped two mouthfuls of dry food at will. When he was thirsty, he drank two sips of the wine that the brothers had treasured in the past, warming up his body and intoxicating it. As for the pain on his body, he had long forgotten it, and the pain had become numb, and he could no longer feel which part of his body was injured and which was good.
That's fine, and saying goodbye to my brother is also a top priority.
Of course, Wang Yun naturally didn't have so many feelings in his heart, and now everything he did was an instinctive reaction, and he had long forgotten how to think.
For a day and a night, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and his whole body was already muddy.
Throwing the knife, Wang Yun wanted to get up, but the long kneeling and the rotting wound made him fall to the ground again.
Spit out the soil in his mouth, and Wang Yun just lay on the ground motionless.
Time passed quietly, and it seemed that he had regained some strength, and Wang Yun opened his eyes again. This time he learned wisely, and reached out to reach for the abandoned knife. Slowly holding the knife, Wang Yun stood up.
Dizzy, Wang Yun fell on his back, his back against the mud of the big pit.
His eyes looked at the sky blankly, and when he saw the little stars flashing one by one, Wang Yun felt a little relaxed in his heart, how good it was to close his eyes like this.
"Smack~"
I don't know where the strength came from, Wang Yun slapped himself fiercely, and scolded the wolf heart and dog lungs in his heart. In the end, groggy, I still closed my eyes.
......
"My Majesty, I am back. Ye Qinghui came to Ye Qingchuan, and his tone was a little excited.
Ye Qingchuan looked at Ye Qinghui, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
After the two sides stabilized their emotions, Ye Qinghui said tentatively: "Your Majesty, I heard the Jing army slaughter the city?"
Ye Qingchuan nodded, "According to the report of the spies, Yuan Jie slaughtered all the Dart Sects in Chu Capital, and even many ordinary people were implicated. Now it seems that the group you are chasing must have something to do with this matter. ”
"Your Majesty, the men ......"
Ye Qingchuan patted Ye Qinghui on the shoulder and interrupted his words, "What did you do, I naturally believe you, and I don't need to explain the report." ”
Ye Qinghui looked speechless, and only nodded heavily.
"Okay, if you still have the spirit, let's prepare, and we'll take it back to Chudu tonight. ”
"Yes. ”
The Jing army led by Yuan Jie is now in the Chu capital, and the extravagance has not diminished at all, and the celebration banquet for the first few days, but the Jing army is intoxicated and unable to extricate himself. If you embark on the road of laziness and extravagance, you will never turn back, and you will only go further and further on this road.
The Jingmen Gate, which was originally easy to defend and difficult to attack, is now only a few drunken drunks who are guarding it. Ye Qingchuan and the others recaptured the Jingmen Gate almost effortlessly, compared to Ye Qingchuan's concession to the Jingmen, this Jing army was more thorough.
Ye Qingchuan stood at the gate of Jing and looked at Chu Du, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Chu Du fell into the hands of this kind of person, and it suffered." ”
"If they hadn't, we wouldn't have taken it back so easily. Ye Qinghui wiped the blood from the knife beside him.
When Ye Qingchuan heard this, he said, "What Qinghui said also makes sense. We've given them a chance, but they don't cherish it. ”
Ye Qinghui put the knife back into the sheath and said, "Imagine if the Jing army is all like this, even if there are millions of people, what is there to fear?" When the words fell, he couldn't help but think of Wang Yun and the sacrifice of his life for benevolence
Wang Yun and others who are bold in their hearts.
Ye Qingchuan shook his head and admonished Ye Qinghui: "You can't blind yourself to it, if Yasukuni is all this kind of goods, it is not enough to compare with the other two empires." Not to mention far away, Yan Yi, who commanded the army this time, can be regarded as a personal masterpiece. When I was the prime minister of Yasukuni, I was also angry with him. ”
Speaking of the past, Ye Qingchuan couldn't help but chuckle a few times.
"Speaking of which, Yan Yi admires Yi Feng's kid, this time he intends to sit on the Eastern Front, and I am looking forward to the two meeting again. "Yan Yi and Ye Qingchuan used to be political enemies, and if they met on the battlefield, it would be nothing more than a war of scolding. But Yi Feng and Yan Yi are different, the two have fought together, and Yan Yi also has a little bit of affection for Yi Feng, and when the two of them meet, Ye Qingchuan is full of expectations.
Ye Qinghui has been following Ye Qingchuan's side, and naturally knows a little about the situation of Yi Feng and Yan Yi, and he can only smile and be noncommittal about Ye Qingchuan's boring bad taste.
After talking all the gossip and looking at the spies who rushed to hear the inquiry, Ye Qingchuan said: "People are here, it's time to do business." ”
Seeing the spies dismount, Ye Qingchuan stepped forward a few steps, "What is the situation of the Jing army in Chudu now?"
"Back to the king, Jing Jun was greedy for pleasure in the Chu capital, drunk and gold-obsessed, but he was vulnerable. ”
"How many people are still expected to be in the Jing army in Chu at this time?"
"After the internal purge of the Jing army, as well as the loss of the slaughter of the city, the Jing army is now less than 50,000. ”
"Fifty thousand. Ye Qingchuan muttered to himself, and asked again: "Is it the ordinary armor soldiers or the generals of the Jing Army who are purged by the Jing Army's internal fighting?"
"This, this villain doesn't know. ”
Ye Qingchuan suddenly thought of something, looked at Ye Qinghui and said, "Do you think the Jing army you chased and killed were Jing army generals or ordinary armor soldiers?"
Ye Qingchuan's words made Ye Qinghui think of Wang Yun and the others again, and with a sigh of relief, Ye Qinghui said firmly: "General of the Jing Army." ”
"General of the Jing Army!" Ye Qingchuan laughed and said: "Okay, well, the commander of the Jing Army is worthy of being a madman who slaughtered the city, but this thing is only done by a madman." ”
"Killing the enemy on the battlefield, purging the party with internal differences, and not being afraid of shaking the morale of the army, this Yuan Jie is really a madman. It's a pity that I couldn't know him before, otherwise I could have made good use of it. As the prime minister of Yasukuni, Ye Qingchuan only knew a few generals, but he didn't know other generals with smaller positions.
Ye Qinghui reminded: "The king must not be careless, since Yan Yi has made him the chief commander of the Western Front, he will naturally have his uniqueness. ”
Ye Qingchuan shook his head and said, "You may be talking about him in the past, but now he has been corrupted by luxury. This shows that he can't resist the temptation, and no matter how talented such a person is, he is just bluffing. I can even guess why he purged his henchmen. ”
Ye Qingchuan had a plan in his heart, so Ye Qinghui didn't say anything more, and silently stood back behind.
"Since they are all his people now. Ye Qingchuan said: "We capture the thief and capture the king, but the Jing army is in chaos, and we can also reduce casualties." ”
Now that the Jing army is "united in heart", there is only Yuan Jie's voice in the army, and he has lost too much ability when he gets his subordinates. If there is no Yuan Jie, Jing Jun will be like having no brains, and this strategy is also wonderful.
Of course, this is only applicable to an army like Yuan Jie, if it is Yan Yi's army, I am afraid that it will be self-defeating to capture Yan Yi.
