Qingyan rewarded the golden egg plus the eighth watch.

"The general's mind is unmatched." Bai Lian praised it from the bottom of her heart.

Bai Lian's eyes showed a look of appreciation, which was the kind of appreciation that came from the heart, without any factors.

It's just that when Gu Yan heard Bai Lian say this, the happy look on his face gradually put away, and it took a long time to hear him say:

"My hometown is a small border town in the middle of the northwest and eastern Liaodong, and it has been invaded by foreign races all year round. After one year of war, the dead soldiers were mishandled, which caused a plague, because it was a border area, and it was the most ferocious plague, at that time, whether it was the garrison of Liaodong or the garrison of the northwest, fearing that the plague would spread, martial law was imposed in that area, and the people there were left to fend for themselves. There was no food and clothing, no medical treatment, and many people died at that time, and my parents and people were all lost in that plague. The people there escaped the harassment of the alien race for many years, but they did not escape the exile from the imperial court. ”

Gu Yan said, his expression was a little heavy, and Bai Lian remembered that he had told him in Pengcheng that his hometown had also suffered from the plague when he was a child. It's just that Bai Lian didn't expect this to be the case at the beginning.

"I was seven years old, and all I heard in my ears was resentment against the court, and what I saw in my eyes was because of the dead fellow villagers in the court. It may be that I was so desperate that I crawled out of the pile of dead people, and when I climbed to the river to drink water, I fell into the river, and when I woke up again, I was saved by a woodcutter, who went into the mountain to collect medicine and save my life. When I was healed, I stayed behind and recognized him as my father. At that time, I was full of anger, and all I thought about was hatred of the imperial court. It was only later that I learned that my father-in-law was a hermit. Taught me martial arts, and when he knew that I was interested in the art of war, he taught him what he had learned. In addition to that, he taught me how to behave in the world and tried to remove the resentment from my heart. ”

Bai Lian listened to him quietly, as if she saw that little Gu Yan, like an untamed little tiger. Dancing at everyone. was carefully guided and nurtured by a wise man, so that he is now radiant.

Bai Lian's heart was pantothenic, and her eyes were a little red. thought of Gu Yanzeng and said. If Lu Ye first entered the court, with the guidance of a good teacher, he would definitely become a pillar of the country. In this way, it is Gu Yan's personal experience!

But on Lu Ye. But there was no more chance.

When someone guided Gu Yan, Lu Ye was deeply trapped in hatred.

When Gu Yan went to the battlefield to kill the enemy and defend the country. Lu Ye is in partisan disputes.

That's fate.

Gu Yan is undoubtedly lucky!

"My original name was not Gu Yan, I didn't have a serious name when I was a child, and everyone in the township called me Xiao Gu, Gu Yan was the name given by my father-in-law. At the beginning, my father-in-law said. Yan, the water dynasty is also in the sea. If you don't have a heart like the sea, how can you let the river flow in! I never understood. What does it take to be open-minded? ”

"It wasn't until later that I joined the army and ate and lived with the soldiers. There are inevitably contradictions in the crowd, I am young and vigorous, and my fists are hard enough, I have become the commander of ten in our camp. There is also a ten-captain in the camp next to him, they have been in the army for a long time, and because our side is relatively strong, no matter what we do, we will overwhelm them. Later, the hundred-man under our direct command died in a battle, so we chose the centurion among our ten ten-commanders. ”

Bai Lian listened carefully, watching Gu Yan tell his experience since he was a child. This is something she has not been exposed to, and the generals she knew in her previous life are all families. Headed by the Yan family, their status in the army was determined as soon as they were born, where do they need to work hard from such a ten-captain to a centurion.

"The last two candidates are me and another ten-captain, and the team he leads is the one who doesn't like us everywhere. Therefore, there was a martial arts competition in the final competition of the centurion, and I really made him suffer a lot and recuperated for a month. In the end, I won and became a centurion. ”

Bai Lian listened to Gu Yan's experience and felt very inspired, but when she looked at Gu Yan's expression, there was no trace of joy, her expression was solemn, and there seemed to be a trace of sadness.

Bai Lian couldn't understand why Gu Yan had such a look.

"Until, when the war with the Qiang people broke out again, our team was conscripted as a vanguard army, and followed a commander to the front. Because of the defeat of the commander at that time, the entire vanguard team was in a difficult situation. Trapped by the enemy's 10,000 troops on a lonely mountain, there was no help for help, there was no hope of breaking through, and when the enemy was ready to set fire to the mountain, we had to fight hard and fight our way out of the mountain. ”

Gu Yan said, with a hint of water in his eyes. He didn't look at Bai Lian again, but looked at one place, his eyes were misty, and his thoughts seemed to return to the moment when he fought on the battlefield.

"It was the most brutal fight since I joined the army, watching my companions fall one by one, watching from the initial 1,000 to 800, 800 to only about 200 in the end! We can only rush down, even if we die under the enemy's sharp blade, we cannot surrender without a fight and be burned alive! When I was about to break out of the encirclement, there were only a hundred people left, and I rushed in front, and the soldiers who followed behind did not flinch. At this time, no one had an idea, and in the distance, a strong bow was already aimed at me. When I heard the sound of breaking through the sky, the arrow was already in front of me. ”

Bai Lian's breath froze instantly, and her eyes looked at Gu Yan without blinking, knowing that he would be fine later, sitting in front of her at the moment and recalling the past, but she couldn't stop sweating in her heart.

Gu Yan's nose trembled, his lips opened and closed, his throat slid up and down a few times, and even his eyes were a little red, Bai Lian once thought that he would cry.

After a long time, I heard him choke in his throat and say, "It was the ten-captain who had been taught me a lesson to push me away, and he was pierced through the chest by a sharp arrow." ”

Bai Lian took a deep breath, and then she understood why Gu Yan was so sad and remorseful just now.

"The blades clashed, the horses neighed, there were screams everywhere, what he said at the end, no one heard, and when I turned around, I only had time to see the last of his mouths, and he was saying: Take them out!"

"What is remorse, what is hate, in this life, there is no time when there is a feeling of regret at that moment! Regardless of his past suspicions, he pinned all his hopes on me, asking me to lead the rest of the people to break out of the encirclement. Later, we broke through, and the 100 brothers who came out with me eventually became the only generals, but the person I admired the most remained on that lonely mountain forever, trampled into mud by the enemy, and there were no bones left. ”

"When I made a mound for him, I saw his marching spirit. I looked at his marching chronicles, which said that he didn't want to fight, not because he was afraid of war, but because he hated the harm that war brought to the world. The people are not happy, their wives are separated, their families cannot be reunited, and the common people are not at peace. ”

At that time I sat in his tent for three days and three nights. After that, I realized that my father-in-law told me what my mind was like the sea. ”

ps: There is a change later.
