Chapter 22: The Iron Blooded Son Yeluqing
"On the eighth day of the tenth month of the tenth year in the east, the second war began. "Li Kui" The enemy army sent 70,000 elite soldiers to encircle and suppress us. ”
On that day, they first received news from the spies that the enemy had sent 70,000 elite soldiers to attack the eastern camp in a huge encirclement ten miles away, and it would take about two hours to reach the eastern camp.
After thinking about it carefully, Ye Luqing summed up an answer: since the front and back roads are not passable, then more than 45,000 soldiers from the east of the country will go to the air and go up the tree!
To the east of the camp was a wood, thick enough for three people to stand, and thin enough for one person to hide.
However, Yeluqing's words were not finished, and such a method was once again opposed by most of the soldiers in Donglin.
They are not cowards, they only run away, what is it to hide in a tree? They would rather die a glorious death on the ground than stand on a tree branch and live in secret.
"I'm such a pig brain. The remorseful Li Kui scratched the back of his head, "Vice General Zhang has already indicated that he will obey the general's military orders, but I still insist on going my own way and take the 40,000 soldiers who don't want to climb the tree to break through the encirclement." ”
Tens of thousands of soldiers went to pack their bags, put on their armor, and prepared to march towards the encirclement in the southeast corner.
When he left the camp, the remaining thousands of soldiers in the Donglin barracks were gone, and Li Kui remembered that he had mercilessly scolded all the missing people, including Ye Luqing and Zhang Hu.
"Now that I think about it, I really can't control my mouth, and I actually scolded the general. Li Kui has always felt sorry for the incident, even though more than two years have passed since the incident. "Then I and my wounded 40,000 soldiers were forced back into the woods by the enemy. Next, there is a scene that I will never forget. ”
Li Kui and the 40,000 soldiers, who were feeling helpless, widened their eyes in the next moment and forgot to breathe.
Their general, Ye Luqing, wearing silver-white armor and a fiery red cloak representing the generals of the Eastern Bordering Kingdom, fell from the sky.
Ye Luqing, who was as light as a wild goose, kicked over the nearest enemy general when he landed on the ground.
With Ye Luqing's shout, in the woods, every two or three trees, a person jumped down.
Dense easterners, soldiers are overwhelming.
Obviously, the number of soldiers who jumped from the trees was only a few thousand, but they shocked the nearly 120,000 soldiers present with strong morale and unique ways, regardless of the east and the enemy.
"The soldiers who jumped off the tree all took the opportunity to hit the heads of the enemy soldiers when they fell, and those who didn't know thought that the heavenly soldiers had descended to earth. Recalling the frightened expressions of the 70,000 enemy soldiers, Li Kui held his belly and laughed heartily. "Hahahaha, you definitely can't imagine that the expressions of the 70,000 soldiers of the enemy army at that time were exactly the same, hahahaha. ”
"You, didn't you say that you were defeated?" Hearing this kind of upside-down story for the first time, Ji Liuli was a little confused about what this war was all about. "How does it sound like a victory without a fight?"
"It was indeed defeated. Li Kui firmly assured Ji Liuli of an incredible fact. "How can more than 45,000 soldiers fight more than 70,000 enemy troops?"
Ji Liuli turned her stiff neck, turned her face to the side with her back to Li Kui, and still didn't want to know the best part of the second war. "What's going on?"
"The general's thunderous momentum shook the leader of the enemy army. Li Kui still remembers Ye Luqing's every move at that time, and the cloak was blown and shaken by the breeze, and Li Kui also vaguely remembers it.
Yeluqing used a trick to induce the leader of the enemy army to have a bloodless battle with Donglin, and if Donglin wins, the enemy army retreats for 300 miles, and if the enemy wins, Donglin will compensate a city.
No matter how you listen to it, this is a sure deal, if you lose, retreat for 300 miles, it's a big deal to walk another 300 miles back here to fight with Donglin, win, get a city, this is simply a pie in the sky.
The leader of the enemy army didn't say a word, and responded to Yeluqing's stupid idea of 'losing his wife and breaking his army'.
"The leader of the enemy army was a man of letters, who had read poetry and books, and had practiced martial arts for several years, and although he was not experienced in a hundred battles, he had killed no less than a thousand people. Li Kui couldn't remember the appearance of the enemy leader, but he remembered his temperament of both civil and military. "He's a very special general. ”
"Hiss......" Ji Liuli's attention was obviously not on the latter sentence that Li Kui wanted to emphasize, but lamenting the ruthlessness of the enemy leader. How could he ...... So ruthless?"
"The helplessness of the country lies in the monarch, and the helplessness of the general lies in the ambition of the monarch. Li Kui can understand the mood of the enemy leader, they are all pawns of the monarch, but the chessboard they belong to is different. "The leader of the enemy army is but a blade used by the king of another country to realize his own ambitions. ”
Ji Liuli grabbed the belts on both sides of Yeluqing's side with both hands and clenched his palms. "This, isn't this aiding and abetting?"
Ji Liuli, who doesn't understand human feelings, can't understand the enemy leader's obedience to his monarch, why should he obey the king's will and kill living beings?
"Doctor Ji, as a courtier, can't resist the will. "Li Kui has fought a lot of battles, and if it weren't for the Donglin monarch wanting to expand his land, they wouldn't have had to go far to the battlefield. "The souls of our general's subordinates, if not five thousand, but four thousand, but ......"
"But what?" Ji Liuli, who couldn't get Li Kui's words, turned back to face Li Kui.
However, Yeluqing took the initiative to invite Yinglai to come to the border to garrison, which is a problem that all the soldiers in the east have in their stomachs every day, and for three years, no one knows why Yeluqing gave up his noble status of worry-free food and clothing in the east to come to this difficult border.
Li Kui himself didn't know the reason, if he said it, what if Doctor Ji went to ask the general? Then the general would know that someone was chewing on the root of the tongue in Doctor Ji's ear.
This shows that Dr. Ji cares about the general, for the sake of the future good life of the general and Dr. Ji, why not 'sacrifice' once?
No, it's better for the general to take the initiative to open up and reveal this kind of thing to Dr. Ji?
But if Dr. Ji went to ask the general, then their relationship could go further, wouldn't it be good?
No, no, no, can't say, absolutely can't say, if the general and Dr. Ji have a certain relationship, the general will definitely know everything about Dr. Ji, so he won't say anything.
Li Kui, who was entangled, finally decided not to tell Dr. Ji about this 'but'.
"The leader of the enemy army is really a very special person. As soon as the topic changed, Li Kui avoided this topic that was not easy to talk about.
