Chapter 631: I Won't Let Anyone Go!
"They're dead. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Zhou Tingyu murmured quietly.
Zhou Tingyu stood in front of a small dirt slope, looking at the direction of Yanfei Valley from afar, and did not move for a long time.
Coming to his side, Ning Guogong, who was not at ease with him, sighed, he knew that the fifth prince needed to vent the depression in his chest now, otherwise it would be harmful to his body, and he didn't need to speak at this moment, just be a listener quietly.
"10,000 people trusted me and followed me, but only more than 2,000 returned, and nearly half of them were slightly injured."
Zhou Tingyu didn't say anything about the seriously injured people, because the seriously injured people, on the way back, took the initiative to drag their injured bodies to fight with the Turks, buying a little time for him to escape.
"In the Yanfei Valley, there were nearly two thousand dead, and we finally rushed to the entrance, and met the Turkic cavalry who were ready to go there and wait for us.
There, we lost nearly 5,000 men before we broke through the siege. We were hunted down and killed along the way, and we waited until we saw the shadow of the border city, and waited until the companions who stayed in the border city rescued us, so that we could return to the border city safely.
Along the way, more than a thousand more people died. ”
Ning Guogong closed his eyes fiercely, this was a heavy number, almost overwhelming.
"They're all dead. A few days ago, they were still telling me that after winning the Turkic war, they would go home to see their mother-in-law and children, and some people wanted to compete with me to see who killed the most enemies, and they also said that after winning the battle, they would eat meat and drink a lot......
Li Dashu said that he would go back to make a dress for his mother-in-law, and Liu Dachang said that if he won the battle this time, he would return to the field and accompany his old parents, mother-in-law and children.
Oh, and Wang Yingchuan, who said that he would marry a good girl to live a life when he went back this time and taste the taste of being taken care of. ”
Zhou Tingyu looked at Yan Feigu stupidly, the voices and smiles of those people appeared in his mind one by one, his eyes were very dry, "But most of them are gone......
"Dead! They're all dead! I killed them!
I made it so that they couldn't even go home to see their mother-in-law, and I made them unable to eat meat and drink a lot of wine in the future.
It's me, it's me who harms everything, it's me who is sorry for them! It's me who is sorry for them!
But their last words before they died, they were still shouting, tell me to run away quickly, let the others protect me, and let me return to the border city safely..."
Zhou Tingyu couldn't hold back any longer, squatted down and hugged his head and cried, like a wounded young beast, roaring and letting out a miserable wail, the sadness and sadness in that voice made Ning Guogong's eyes wet slightly.
In the end, he is still a seventeen-year-old boy, no matter how stable he looks on weekdays, he is also very fragile at this moment.
Ning Guogong wanted to comfort him, but he couldn't talk about it, so he could only continue to listen to his confession quietly.
"Those people... From the time I entered the barracks, he has always taken good care of me.
It was they who taught me the experience and points of camping and walking in the wilderness, it was they who taught me the skill of arching and horses, it was they who taught me all their experience in the army, and it was they who did not worry about me spending the night with me when I first killed the bad guys.
On the battlefield, they also desperately protected me, so that I came back safely, they treated me like a son, a friend, and a brother, but I killed them. ”
Zhou Tingyu laughed sadly, he beat his heart fiercely, and all at once, the sound of "bang" could be heard in the air.
"They wouldn't have died without me, and they wouldn't have died without me! Won't die! ”
"Enough!" Ning Guogong couldn't help it, and shouted in a low voice, "Your Highness, it's not your fault!" This is a non-war crime!
If you want to blame, blame those damned traitors! If they hadn't sold our battle plans to the Turks, we wouldn't have lost so much at all.
If it weren't for their disloyalty and injustice at the time of national crisis, we wouldn't have had this kind of thing happening at all.
It's not your fault, and any vanguard general like you would not have done better than you here. ”
The conversation between Zhou Tingyu and Qingyun, Ning Guogong already knew about it, and he also knew the tragic situation that happened in Yanfei Valley that day, and he knew even more that Zhou Tingyu had been shot by someone with a cold arrow.
He was more certain than Zhou Tingyu in his heart, someone must have betrayed them, otherwise all the things that happened were too coincidental and too purposeful.
Zhou Tingyu looked at Ning Guogong with a miserable smile, his eyes were red, tears were still flowing out, and he shook his head vigorously,
"No, if I had known that there were people in it who had collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, I wouldn't have killed them, and I thought I was clever in vain, but in the end I was still being played with and killed so many people."
Ning Guogong sighed in his heart, and secretly screamed that it was not good, His Highness This is a demonic obstacle, if he is allowed to go on like this, not only will it be useless for the future battle, but even worse, if he fails again, it is still good to collapse, I am afraid that His Highness will be depressed because of this.
Nearly 8,000 people died, so many lives, it would crush people.
Ning Guogong grabbed Zhou Tingyu's shoulders fiercely, and the strength made him sober up a little from his grief, Ning Guogong looked directly into Zhou Tingyu's eyes, and shouted:
"Your Highness, you are grieving here, can you fucking bring those people back to life? No!
Look up, look, they're all watching you from heaven, waiting for you to avenge them.
Didn't they die unjustly? Injustice! Don't they hate? Hate!
Think about it, there is still a Chu Tianyi lying in the camp!
They used their lives to protect your safe return, but you are crying here like a coward?
They really saved you! You don't even dare to avenge them, they won't look at them at all under the Nine Springs, will you still have the face to see them in the future?
The people who killed them may still be secretly laughing at you behind your back, if you want to cry, you don't cry now, why do we cry?
We defend our homes and the country, protect this land with our lives, and protect the people living on this land, we shed blood and sweat, why should we shed tears?
Why! The ones who should cry are the damned Turks, the damned traitors who sell the news to the enemy country!
They are the ones who repent, and they are the ones who will weep!
What we have to do is to return blood for blood, and to pay tribute to those dead warriors with their blood! ”
Zhou Tingyu was stunned, his eyes were a little dull, and just when Ning Guogong was worried, his eyes rolled, and finally there was movement.
With a force on his shoulder, he broke free of Ning Guogong's hand, he wiped away his tears, stood up, and looked at Yan Feigu in the distance, silent.
After a long while, he said in a low voice: "The people who killed them, the poor and the yellow springs, I will not let go of any of them, not a single one!" ”
