Chapter 204: A Soldier Who Surrenders Without a Fight
Although Zhao Yin said that they had transported a batch of grain recently, the environment of this dilapidated temple was still not very good, especially now that it was winter, even if they lit a fire, they could not block the leaky walls in these four places.
Mu Yan opened his mouth and said: "It seems that there are still a lot of injured people, and even if you are not injured, most of them are not in good spirits. ”
"What do you mean?"
The leading man rushed forward, his expression a little unfriendly, but compared to the people around him, this Hun man was obviously more handsome. Although he was also dark-skinned, he was also a healthy wheat color, with high cheekbones and deep eye sockets, and even the high bridge of his nose.
It seems that this is not a pure Huns, Mu Yan thought about it in his heart, and said: "Don't worry, I have no hostility, I just have a few words I want to say to you." ”
Mu Yan had a faint smile on his lips, and his expression was also very kind, not to mention that he didn't bring any weapons, and the people around him were not so obviously hostile.
"The New Year is coming soon, and the Daliang Congress will be very lively, and every household will make dumplings and set off firecrackers, which is very lively. If you don't go home, you can kindly ask for a bowl of dumplings, and the people will be happy to entertain you. ”
Mu Yan said this, one is to arouse the homesickness of those people, although I don't know how the Huns celebrate the New Year, but it must be equally lively. Second, he wanted to tell them that the people were innocent and that they could have been kind to them.
After listening to Mu Yan's words, no one spoke, and they all lowered their heads one by one, as if they were really thinking about what Mu Yan had just said. Mu Yan relaxed a little, he looked at the things on their table, which were extremely shabby.
"The coldest weather has not yet arrived, this ruined temple is not enough to support your survival, even if you have enough food and grass, you will not be able to build yourself a house, let alone so many wounded people now.
I don't know how you entered the territory of the Great Liang Kingdom, but you must understand one thing, as long as the Great Liang Kingdom has the intention of expelling you from the country right now, you will not be able to resist it for a moment.
There were more than 1,000 officers and soldiers guarding the territory of Tongzhou, 400 cavalry, and 600 infantry. I know that you are all a people on horseback, but I don't know how many can one person fight? ”
Although Mu Yan said it bluntly, the leader also fell silent, they were indeed very difficult, and they didn't know how long they would continue to stay here, it was dangerous to go far away from home and go deep into the enemy country, but now there was not even a place to live.
After a moment of silence, Mu Yan spoke: "Today, I can summon someone to catch you all, and sneaking in like you is a capital crime." But I still came alone, just to give everyone a chance, after all, you are also under the orders of others, I understand this. ”
"If you put down your weapons, we can turn our hostilities into peace, and you can even leave safely." Mu Yan glanced around in front of everyone, and they were silent.
"Why should we believe you? What if you put down your weapon and you go back on your word? The leader asked rhetorically, in fact, he also knew that his worries were unnecessary, if Mu Yan wanted to, even if they didn't put down the weapons in their hands, they wouldn't be able to beat so many people as he said.
Mu Yan looked at him firmly, "Our people from the Great Liang Country, it is difficult to chase after a word, and I will not go back on my word." ”
"Why hasn't Childe come out yet?" Xiang Qing and Yuan Qing were a little anxious, seeing that Mu Yan had been in for so long, but there was no movement at all.
Zhao Yin and the others were also anxious at the moment, "I think it's better to send someone down to take a look first, right?" ”
Anyway, an hour is coming, and they have been waiting here for a long time and don't know when they will go, not to mention that there is some distance from the broken temple at this moment, and if something happens then, it will be too late to send someone down.
Zhao Yin couldn't help but feel that he was solid-eyed, why did Mu Yan really wait when they let them wait here? If something really happens, it's really regrettable.
After listening to Zhao Yin's words, Xiang Qing and Yuan Qing immediately volunteered, and Zhao Yin assigned Jing He to go to the vicinity of the broken temple to monitor the situation together, while they waited above.
Just when the three of them were still a few steps away from the broken temple, they saw Mu Yan walking out of it, and Xiang Qing and Yuan Qing immediately rushed towards Mu Yan. After looking him up and down, he said, "Childe, you're not injured, are you?" ”
Mu Yan turned around: "Do you think I'm missing an arm, or a leg?" ”
The two of them were a little embarrassed, and at this moment, Zhao Yin and the others also saw Mu Yan's figure, everyone was a little surprised, and Zhao Yin and the others couldn't wait for them to come over, and rushed down directly with the people.
Mu Yan nodded: "It has been resolved, and they promised to evacuate from Tongzhou before noon tomorrow." ”
"What? Solved? Zhao Yin's face was full of surprise, he didn't expect Mu Yan to be able to easily solve this matter that had caused them a headache for a long time without moving a single soldier, which was simply too incredible.
Mu Yan said as he walked: "It's just lucky, the leader this time is more reasonable, if he is bent on completing the order, I'm afraid he won't be able to convince him." ”
"So Childe, you just said they quit?" Jing He stared at him as if he was looking at some powerful character, Mu Yan was also too powerful, a few points more powerful than the people around Emperor Baicang.
Zhao Yin clapped his hands: "The soldiers who surrender without a fight, the good and the good, I never thought that I would be able to see this kind of thing in my lifetime." ”
Now they can almost conclude that Mu Yan is a scheming person, and there is nothing to worry about following such a master, and for a while, Zhao Yin once again strengthened his determination to surround Mu Yan as the king of God.
Mu Yan didn't know that this matter had such a big impact, he just didn't want this matter to be serious. Now that the people have closed their doors during the day, how can Tongzhou develop like this?
"Come back, it's getting late." Seeing that it was about to get dark, Mu Yan opened his mouth to speak, and the people around him immediately responded, Mu Yan had some doubts in his heart, but seeing that Zhao Yin was still beside him, he thought that maybe he was responding to Zhao Yin, so he didn't speak.
Soon the group returned to the mansion where they lived, and Jiang Liyue breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Mu Yan and them returning, only to see that before he could ask, he heard Yuanqing speak: "Gongzi is too majestic today, and he will surrender without a fight." ”
"What?" Jiang Liyue frowned and looked at Mu Yan, today I thought that he and Zhao Yin had something to discuss, but later I realized that they were going to find the Hun soldiers.
Jiang Liyue was worried all afternoon, but thinking that Mu Yan was also a person who knew what to do, she didn't expect Yuanqing to say such a thing at this moment. Seeing Jiang Liyue looking at him, Mu Yan was a little weak-hearted, he was going to hide it from Jiang Liyue, but he didn't think that Yuanqing didn't see it on weekdays, he was still a big mouth.
Mu Yan gasped, "Let's go into the house!" ”
There are so many people here, if he is reprimanded by Jiang Liyue, I am afraid that he will lose face, how can he teach these people who are inferior to him in the future?
Mu Yan took Jiang Liyue's hand and the two entered the house together, Jiang Liyue let go of his hand as soon as he entered the room, walked to the table and turned around, it seemed that he was really angry with him.
Mu Yan knew that he was at a loss, and when he saw this, he sighed and walked to the table, "Madam, I am sure of today's things, so I will do that." ”
Jiang Liyue is so smart, Yuanqing must have already understood when she mentioned it, but at this moment, she was just worried about Mu Yan's safety, and she was deeply responsible for her love.
She turned around and glared at Mu Yan: "Then you should tell me, what does that soldier who surrenders without a fight mean?" Everyone knows that the Huns are fierce and warlike, and it is enough for you to go together, but you still want to surrender without a fight? ”
Mu Yan smiled flatteringly: "Do you see that I am not standing in front of you now?" Now that today's events are over, why are you still sulking at yourself? ”
Jiang Liyue saw that he kept silent about his mistakes, and couldn't help but get even more angry: "I'm sulking? I'm worried about your comfort! If something happens to you, do you want to leave me alone in this world? ”
Saying that, Jiang Liyue's eyes turned red, Mu Yan was stunned when he saw this, and he sighed: "Okay, don't be angry, do you know that those Hun soldiers are also pitiful people, and the people of Tongzhou are also innocent. ”
He stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Liyue's hand, she struggled twice and let him hold it, Mu Yan saw this and said softly: "After seeing a lot of those human sufferings, I feel that there is no need to use a knife or a gun to solve the things that can be solved peacefully, you see, isn't it over today?" ”
"Do you always think of others, but have you ever thought of your own comfort?" Jiang Liyue looked at Mu Yan, the tenderness and worry in his eyes made her unbearable, not to mention that Jiang Liyue was not angry in the first place.
"I'll take care of it in the future, Yue'er, I won't let myself have an accident, and I'll wait to be full of your children and grandchildren." Looking at Jiang Liyue's eyes that were red with annoyance, Mu Yan couldn't help but confide in this sentence, and only then did he realize that he had lost his words.
Jiang Liyue has long been unable to have children, why did he still say this?
Mu Yan hurriedly looked up at Jiang Liyue, but fortunately Jiang Liyue was not annoyed, she didn't answer Mu Yan's words, she just stood up and said, "You must be hungry when you go out for an afternoon, Handong made some pastries with spruce in the afternoon, and I'll bring them to you to eat." ”
"Thank you, ma'am." A gentle voice sounded faintly.
Jiang Liyue pursed her lips slightly and nodded, and then she opened her legs and walked out of the door, and the expression on her face collapsed as soon as she went out.
