Chapter 277: The Dust Has Settled
In the fierce battle, I don't feel how fast time passes, every moment, it seems to be suffocating, but in fact, time is flying with feathers and arrows, swords and guns colliding, screaming from the wounded, and the blood of the dead slipping away quickly. When the whole official post was completely quiet, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
After two hours of fierce fighting, the whole official post was full of dead bodies, the dead no longer knew the pain, but the wounded were still wailing in pain.
An inevitable attack, a team of nearly a thousand men faced a hundred and fifty defenders and suffered a complete defeat. The attackers were killed on the spot, wounded more than 600 people, and hundreds more fled in confusion after the last frightening. And the victor is also exhausted at the moment, and there is no energy left to pursue at all.
Except for the place where the official post was located, the other places had become a ruin, and the main building and auxiliary building finally collapsed shortly after the battle.
The victors began to clean up the battlefield, and the corpses of battle-dead robes were lifted out of the rubble and arranged in a row in the open space in front of the house.
Chengde wolf rode and killed three people, and the rest were also wounded. Of the ten Mo swordsmen, only five remained. Yeluqi was hit with a stick on the leg, his leg was broken on the spot, and now he can only jump with a stick, and only two of his ten Khitan subordinates survived. Half of the more than 30 Jianghu experts led by Tu Hu died, and the more than 80 personal guards led by Li Yutong suffered the most heavy casualties, and nearly 30 people remained in this official post forever.
As for the others, almost all of them were injured, and at this moment, Yan Jiu was eager to give birth to a few more hands, but unfortunately, she was the only doctor who accompanied the army.
Li Ze stood like a javelin in front of the corpses of the soldiers.
Xia Zhu helped Mrs. Wang out of the room, and when she saw the ruins outside, dripping blood and layers of corpses, she turned out to have black eyes, and her legs were weak and she slipped to the ground, but Mrs. Wang helped her to hold her. Such a scene has been seen many years ago, and Mrs. Wang has seen it a long time ago. The scene back then was much more tragic than it is now. Glancing at her motionless son, who was standing there, Mrs. Wang immediately lowered her head, sighed and silently recited the scriptures.
Master Liu is a man after all, although he is also trembling now, and his legs are swinging, but he finally stands up straight, but Mrs. Liu, who is supported by Liu Ruyan, fainted in her daughter's arms at the first moment she stepped out of the room.
"Li Mi, go and put up the tent, and let the lady and them go to rest for a good life." Li Ze finally came back to his senses and turned around and instructed Li Yudao.
"Yes!" Li Mi, who was also covered in blood, walked towards the rear with more than a dozen people, tents and other things, they originally carried with them.
Yu Zhen dragged a person in stride, the man hung on the ground like a rag pocket, his legs were weak, and they were obviously broken.
"Shi Yi?" For the first time, Li Ze's eyes showed an angry glint.
With a snap, Shi Yi was thrown in front of Li Ze. He finally charged towards the Chengde wolf horse, he didn't think about surviving, but he didn't expect that he would fall into Li Ze's hands alive, Yu Zhen used the knife face of the horse chopping knife, broke his legs, and captured him alive.
He flipped over from the ground with some difficulty, looked up at the condescending Li Ze, and actually smiled.
Li Ze squatted down, looked at him, and said angrily: "Lu Long and I, originally opponents, fought on the battlefield, you are dead and alive, but why do you do such a trick?" β
"Li Shuai's words are wrong." Shi Yi smiled: "The two armies are facing each other, and they are doing everything, what is this?" If you don't believe it, ask Mr. Gongsun beside you, when we dealt with the Khitans, what kind of means did we not use? As long as it's successful, it's good. Li Shuai, if you die here today, whether it is Chengde or Henghai, it will naturally be over, and our Lu Long will go to a big trouble, this is a clever plan, let alone the next means. It's just that we were unlucky enough to prepare you in advance, and of course, I also have to admire that the combat effectiveness of your fighters is far beyond my imagination. β
Li Ze was speechless when he said this, indeed, he was already an enemy, what kind of benevolence, righteousness and morality were he talking about? Yourself, how naΓ―ve you are!
"Shi Yi, don't you feel ashamed that you have a dignified history of assassination in a state, a member of the fourth grade, actually did such an assassination? You can't make it! Li Ze shook his head and said.
"Where are there any four-grade masters, the position of assassination history, Yingzhou was taken away by you, I am just a lost dog." Shi Yi sighed, "I originally thought that if I could kill you, I would be able to atone for my sins, but after all, I still failed." β
Li Ze suddenly realized, "It turned out that Zhang Zhongwu forced you, is he threatening you with your family?" β
"It's not a threat, Lu Long was governed by military law, and I lost my land and lost my teacher, so I naturally have to be punished." Shi Yi had no resentment towards Zhang Zhongwu: "In the past, I was rewarded for my meritorious service, and my family has enjoyed many years of happiness with me, which is enough, this time I die here, and I think Zhang Shuai will not embarrass my family again." β
"You Lu Long don't have such long hands, tell me, who is the person who supports you behind your back?" Li Ze asked.
Shi Yi smiled: "Left and right are a death, does Li Shuai still want to get anything from Duo?" β
Li Ze said lightly: "If you don't say it, I can guess one or two, but I just want to get a reflection from you, Shi Yi, there are many kinds of death, you can die very happily, or you can die very painfully." β
"It's all dead." Shi Yi shook his head and said, "There is no difference between a happy death and a painful death!" β
Li Ze sneered: "Really? If that's the case, then I won't let you die so soon. I will treat your wounds, and then hand you over to the imperial court, which I think will be extremely happy to be able to capture Zhang Zhongwu's generals alive. β
Shi Yi's face changed slightly.
Li Zedao, who was watching all this: "Shi Yi, you can die here today, and besides, I can also promise you that when I defeat Zhang Zhongwu in the future, I will leave a way for your Shi clan to live, this condition, I think it will satisfy you, right?" β
"You can't beat Zhang Shuai."
"Zhang Zhongwu's strength is indeed strong, but who can say for sure what is happening in this world? Just like before, how did you put Chengde in your eyes, but in front of Chengde, you lost again and again, who I used to be, do you know? But one after another, you have suffered defeat at my hands. Shi Yi, it is always possible to prepare an extra back road for yourself, there is always nothing wrong. Li Ze waved his hand and asked someone to bring a pen, ink, paper and inkstone: "You can choose by yourself, write a confession, and I will let someone give you a good time." β
He looked up at the sky and stood up.
"It's about to dawn, I think when the day dawns, the people from the Eastern Capital will be coming, and when they come, then you want to die, but it's even more difficult, choose for yourself! A happy death, coupled with a promise from my Li, is it worth your gamble. β
After saying this, Li Ze turned around and left, leaving Shi Yi cold. A personal guard walked over and placed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of Shi Yi.
This battle, for Li Ze, also really hurt his vitality.
When the sky was bright, Li Mi walked into the tent, where Li Ze took off his blood-stained armor and was sitting on the felt carpet, talking with Mrs. Wang. Mr. and Mrs. Liu didn't seem to have recovered yet, and sat in the corner with pale faces, stunned. Liu Ruyan sat beside Li Ze, looking at Li Ze with starry eyes.
"Shi Yi recruited?" Seeing Li Yu coming in, Li Ze asked.
"Yes. The supporter behind it is Wei Bojiedu's envoy Tian Chenghe! Li Mi handed Shi Yi's confession to Li Ze's hand, Li Ze glanced at it a few times, and then handed it to Gongsun Changming on the side.
After reading it at a glance and ten lines, Gongsun Changming smiled bitterly: "One side of the word should not be evidenced." β
"Even if you can get the evidence, what can you do? Can the imperial court still uphold justice for me and send someone to Wei Bo to arrest Tian Chenghei? Li Ze laughed and said, "But I have written down this hatred." I'm the most vindictive. A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, one day, I will let Tian Chengsi know that if he offends me, what will happen to him? β
Taking the confession into his arms, Li Ze waved his hand and said to Li Yu: "Since Shi Yi has been recruited, you go and give him a good time!" β
Li Mi nodded, turned around and strode away.
"It's Fei Zhong again, and now I really regret letting him go!" Li Ze shook his head and said, "This guy has gone to Xuanwu again, Mr. Gongsun, this guy's destructive power is too great, I'm going to let Tu Hu go to Xuanwu to find this guy and see if I can kill this guy." β
"Xuanwu Zhu Wen, that's a character, more powerful than Tian Chenghe. You can go to slaughter tigers, but you must be careful not to be strong. Gongsun Changming said.
Tian Chengsi, Zhu Wen. For Li Ze, a person who didn't know much about history in his previous life, these people also belong to famous figures, and they really can't imagine that in this life, there will be a chance to fight them directly.
"When I pacify the Northlands, I will have a good fight with them when I look back." Li Ze waved his fist and said.
"If you want to achieve great things, these people are the hurdles that must be overcome!" Gongsun Changming said.
When the sky was bright, Mengjindu finally became lively, dozens of boats came from the upstream at once, thousands of elite soldiers got off the boat, and went straight to the official post, and one of the Li character flags was even more eye-catching.
Because the owner of this banner belongs to the defense envoy of the Eastern Capital, Li Xin, the king of Fu.
Li Xin actually rushed over in person.
