Maybe it's a fierce battle brewing, or maybe it's because the Qin ** team hasn't been deployed yet. On the first day, it was unexpectedly calm outside the city. From morning to twilight, the Qin army did not come out to provoke, and there was no disturbance from other aspects. Although the defenders did not let their guard down because of this, they were also secretly relieved.

In any case, everyone trusts King Zhao, but as he said, he can defeat the Qin army with an understatement, but he doesn't dare to believe it after all. General Qi and his subordinates did not dare to relax at all. Even Lan Lingjun has been guarding the city, wearing armor and holding a sword, and is with them. Now that everyone is in the same boat, there is no need to pay attention to those identities anymore.

And just as the twilight covered the city and beyond, they all heard an incredible thing almost at the same time. Someone entered from the east gate and was personally received by King Zhao. And this person is none other than Shang Yunbai, who was hunted down by the Qin ** team! Everyone looked at each other, Shang Yunbai would actually enter Los Angeles at this time, and the things represented behind this were undoubtedly extraordinary.

"King Zhao...... It's amazing! Hehe! ”

Lanling Jun Tian Wuzhao once again expressed his heartfelt admiration. Sitting in the city of sorrow, between the backhand, let the world's famous generals who commanded an army of 100,000 be cornered, this kind of means is simply turning hands into clouds and hands for rain! In the whole world, what kind of layout has he made in advance? Until the truth is revealed, I am afraid that no one will be able to see one or two of it. From this, the more I think about it, the more I feel that this person is profound and terrifying.

And Zimmer, who had read all the vicissitudes of life before him, just sighed and didn't say anything more. The river flows, and heroes come out in abundance. In the face of such latecomers, what else does he have to say? Perhaps, the only thing to be happy with is that Chu Jiangmian, the king of Zhao, has always maintained respect for the Great Zhou royal family in Los Angeles. Even after the death of the Son of Heaven, his attitude did not change. The royal family is well taken care of. This made Zimmer, who hurried back in a hurry, feel a lot more at ease. Although he didn't know what the future would hold, he always believed that this young man with compassion would not do anything too much.

And Princess Sanssouci, who was standing a little farther away, quietly turned away, not letting people see the brilliance in her eyes. She already knew that he was a hero in the whole world! No matter how powerful a famous general is, in front of him, he can only be caught with his hands tied and willing to bow down.

All the defenders of the city also looked in the direction of the city. Because they all know that Shang Yunbai, a famous general of the famous generation, is walking on a certain street in the city at this moment to meet with King Zhao.

But this time, his identity is no longer a general who swallows thousands of miles like a tiger, but just an ordinary prisoner.

The twilight is silent, and the moon rises tomorrow. The moonlight shrouded the heavy palaces of Zichen Palace, emitting a miserable white light. Half of this palace, which was once located in the center of the world, still retains its original appearance, while the other half is ruined by the fire a few days ago.

Shang Yunbai, who was standing in this palace for the first time, had a very strange feeling in his heart. Could it be that in the end of every glorious dynasty, it will end up with an embarrassing ending like the Great Zhou Dynasty? The royal family was in trouble, the Son of Heaven collapsed, and the palace was destroyed...... If this cycle continues, what is the meaning of all the merits in the world? "What is General Yunbai thinking?"

A faint voice sounded from the other side, interrupting Shang Yunbai's contemplation. He looked up, and the figure elongated by the moonlight was turning out from behind a palace. Although he couldn't see it clearly, he could also imagine the smile on the other person's face. The famous general, who had already lost his army, sighed and replied helplessly with a wry smile.

"I'm thinking, last time King Zhao invited me to drink the most expensive wine in the world...... Why?! ”

Hearing his question, Chu Jiangmian, who had already approached, laughed. Now, he doesn't have to hide his little tricks. Although this small means are not worth mentioning in the whole layout, they do not play a big role. But no matter what you say, Shang Yunbai's resentment is justified.

"Let's go! Go up there, where the horizon is open. I will answer the general's questions well. ”

Shang Yunbai nodded and followed him up to the high terrace. This terrace is built on the highest part of the Zichen Palace, and the air is fresh and the eyes are open. Looking around from here, the entire Zichen Palace and half of Los Angeles are almost in full view. Shang Yunbai glanced around, but saw that the Thousand Machine Pavilion spies who came with King Zhao were all guarding in the distance, not following the front. He admired Chu Jiangmian's courage a little in his heart.

"King Zhao, now I have become a prisoner of the ranks. I can't afford to drink tonight's wine anymore! ”

In the bright moonlight on the terrace, the two men were silent for a moment. Shang Yunbai spoke first. He had already seen a small wine jar that Chu Jiangmian was carrying. I thought he was going to invite himself to drink again. It's just that his future is uncertain tonight, and he really doesn't have that mood anymore. It's just that he would obviously be wrong. only heard the other party say softly.

"General, this wine is not for the two of us."

Shang Yunbai looked at Chu Jiangmian with some astonishment, but saw that the moonlight shone on his face, and it seemed that there was a solemnity that was not commensurate with his age. Then, he saw with his own eyes that the young King Zhao had lifted the mud seal from the wine jar and looked up at the moonlight and the starry sky. When he lowered his head again, there was already a slight sadness in his tone.

"This jar of spirits is for the dead...... In a short period of time, thousands of people lost their lives here. How innocent these lives are! At the moment of the Great War, there is nothing left. I can only use this wine to overrun their spirits. ”

Between heaven and earth, the breeze blows through the ears. Shang Yunbai suddenly felt a little strange in his heart. He looked at Chu Jiangmian silently and speechlessly, and with a very solemn expression, he slowly sacrificed the small half jar of wine on the open space on the terrace. Then close your eyes and observe a moment of silence.

Shang Yunbai also lowered his head involuntarily, his heart surging. In his 20-year career, he fought nearly 100 battles. Whether it's the people he kills, or the injuries that both sides injure each other on the battlefield. I don't know how many have been over the years. But he never thought about whether it was worth it for these people to die for war. Not only him, but all the princes and generals of the world, I am afraid that no one has ever had such a deep compassion for ordinary life.

"King Zhao, they are all warriors. The mission of a warrior is to fight on the battlefield, and after death, it is ...... Even I'm going to die in battle one day. Why did King Zhao need to be like this? ”

"Nope! They are first people, and then warriors. Everyone has their own parents, wives and children waiting in the back, and they also have their own unfinished business to worry about...... No one wants to die like this without regrets! He was not born to die for war, let alone for the sake of kings and generals. They should live happily, like all things in this heaven and earth, birth, old age, sickness and death, and naturally reproduce and live without outside interference....... ”

Shang Yunbai's eyes widened in surprise, he looked at King Zhao who was saying these words in a very formal tone, and felt that either he was stupid, or Chu Jiangmian had something wrong with his brain.

For thousands of years before the Great Zhou Dynasty, there have been many beings in the world, and there are many noble and low. The nobles, the princes and generals, are inherited in one line. And those with lowly status are divided into three religions and nine streams, each of which inherits its own orders. A nobleman will always be a nobleman, and a lowly person will always be a lowly person. The lowly are driven by the noble rule, shed blood for it, and fight for it. Only by exchanging their lives for the only glory may be their only chance to move forward. This is a matter of course and everyone understands.

However, what King Zhao said today was tantamount to thunder, shocking Shang Yunbai, who heard these remarks for the first time. He involuntarily interrupted the other party's words and asked rhetorically in a puzzled tone.

"King Zhao said this, I'm afraid it's a big mistake! You are a dignified king, how can you use such a humble tone to respect ordinary soldiers? What's more, if these dead also include the Son of Heaven, the King of the Southern Han Dynasty and others, it would be too unfair, right? Their lives cannot be equal......!"

"There is no distinction between high and low in life, all men are created equal! General Yunbai, no one is born to deserve to die, and no one is born with a noble life! The correct criterion between heaven and earth should be that only meritocracy is respected, and sages are supreme!"

Shang Yunbai was dumbfounded. The stars are like the sea, and the moon is bright. Is this really the case in the world? This is a realm he never imagined! And the guardians from near and far had already bowed to the ground towards the figure standing on the terrace. There are many people who have burst into tears of emotion. This young man deserves to be the king they swear to follow! Just because he can say these words, he will be ruined, and the only way to repay him is death!

After half a ring, Shang Yunbai arched his hand, and said with a sincere look in his eyes.

"King Zhao's realm is beyond my reach. However, the world is raging and divided...... It may not be easy to achieve your ambitions. ”

What the general said is exactly the truth. So, I need like-minded people to work together to achieve this goal. Is it possible for Brother Yunbai to help me? ”

"Hahaha! The state of Qin has never had a general who surrendered. King Zhao, you have found the wrong person. If you want to kill, you will kill, I will never complain!"

"I won't kill you, I want you to serve the world!"

"What do you say...... King Zhao?"

"Brother Yunbai, I'm not asking you to surrender to me. It's about leaving it to be useful, to create a new world for the people of the world that has never been before!"

"However, this is still a surrender after all! Is there any other reason to convince me? ”

"Yes!"

Chu Jiangmian grabbed Shang Yunbai's hand. The galaxy is thousands of miles, overlooking the mountains and rivers. He was full of pride and generosity.

"The world rises and falls, who is the master of ups and downs? The palace is ten thousand, and it will eventually become dust. Xing, the people are bitter. Death, the people suffer...... In this case, I am willing to work hand in hand with you to end this cycle of rise and fall! Is this justification okay? ”
