Chapter 653: Survival
For the sake of the clan, the patriarch of the Jin clan did not dare to deceive, and told everything she knew. Although she didn't know what the mines and explosives were, she could see the effect, the sound of the explosion, the huge fire, the falling ridges, in this era, the impact was still very huge.
Li Siwen's eyes widened, and when he heard that the flames were soaring into the sky and could blow the mountains to pieces, he grabbed the arm of the Jin Elder tightly and asked, "Have you seen clearly?" Is it true that even the mountains have fallen? ”
Elder Jin nodded: "It's falling, and the mountains on both sides are cracked!" ”
Li Siwen was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "Then is my eldest brother still alive?" Suddenly, he remembered something, glared angrily, and shouted, "Where are those two sluts who kidnapped my eldest brother, I'm going to kill them alive!" No, I'm going to kill them, I, I'm going to kill them! ”
Li Siwen didn't know how to relieve his anger, he was so angry that he screamed, and when the Jin Elder saw this, his heart was really not what the little marquis expected, if Jin Chen was brought, she would definitely die.
When he met the sentry agent yesterday, Elder Jin asked Jin Chen to go first. She taught Jin Chen her disguise technique, pretended to be a young man, let her break away from the team, and come back to Dingxiang after a while, Jin Chen also thought the same, but she didn't want to run for her life, she was going to find Li Mu, but Elder Jin didn't know her thoughts.
Because of this, she can be regarded as escaping her life.
Elder Jin said the excuse that had been prepared a long time ago, and said: "Those two women were both killed, we are the people who have surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and we also ask the military master to take care of it a little bit in the face of the Hou Ye's letter." ”
Li Siwen glared at these people who had walked five or six hundred miles without a drop of water, and finally couldn't give up, stomped his feet angrily, and said: "Give them water to drink and eat, and release the sentinels, I want to know what is going on in the Camel Valley!" ”
As he spoke, tears fell: "Looking for my eldest brother, I want to see people in life, I want to see corpses in death, even if I dig up the mountain, I have to find him!" Eldest brother! Oh my big brother! ”
And with that, he began to cry. His wife Qin Yu didn't worry about him coming with him, seeing him crying like this, she felt that he was indeed affectionate and righteous, and the words of reproach were stuck in her throat and couldn't be spoken.
Li Siwen returned to Dingxiang and handed Li Mu's letter to Li Ji, Wuzi was still sobbing, Li Ji looked at his son's appearance, and his heart was also very uncomfortable, there is a way that the tiger father has no dog, but his son is a dog, he thinks that Li Siwen can prove that what he did back then was wrong, but Li Siwen's current appearance has confirmed that his choice back then was right, how can such a cowardly person be handsome? If such a man leads an army into battle, will he not give an account of the lives of his soldiers?
But seeing Li Siwen's sad appearance, Li Ji felt that his son was not useless, at least his heart was not bad, a person who values love and righteousness, even if it is bad, how bad can it be?
"Don't cry." Li Ji finally spoke up and said: "Li Mu's letter has made it very clear that the Western Turkic army is already moving eastward, which is already a sure thing. Although I don't know what method he used to blow up the pass of the Camel Valley, but this matter can at least delay the trip of the Western Turkic army for half a month, and in another half a month, General Hou's men and horses will also arrive early. ”
Li Siwen grinned and cried: "What to prepare for, how to prepare for war?" The son doesn't understand anything, he doesn't know anything. Father, this time the son finally understands that the son is a waste, you are right, I really can't make it. I thought that without you, relying on my eldest brother, I would have a chance, but in reality, I was still relying on others, I couldn't help anything, I was just a waste-"
"Son!" Li Ji interrupted Li Siwen's words loudly, and said solemnly: "You are now the head of a mansion, and you are the only one who has 1,500 military academies, and when you get to the battlefield, your words will decide their life and death!" I didn't let you be this captain at the beginning, you didn't do it, and I also told you the responsibility, and now you regret it? How can there be regret medicine in the world! If you don't want Li Mubai to die, you should quickly cheer up and do what you can, if you are not good at fighting, just do something else, you always have your own strengths, at this time, being able to do your part is a force, as long as you do it, no one will think you are useless! ”
Li Siwen cried and nodded, it seemed that what he said had an effect a little, but it seemed that the effect was not very great.
Suddenly, Su Lie shouted outside the tent: "Report, there is a new flying pigeon to pass the book!" ”
Li Ji glanced at Li Siwen, Li Siwen dodged sideways, and Li Ji said in a deep voice: "Come in!" ”
Su Lie entered the tent, handed the pigeon with both hands, and Li Ji untied the flying pigeon handbook, and finally showed a little joy on his face.
He waved his hand to signal Su Lie to retreat, handed the flying pigeon pass to Li Siwen, and said: "Li Chongyi only relied on five hundred brocade clothes to destroy the Linyi country, he is really a tiger general, the person is already on the way, Dugu Jiu sent a message over, saying that he had already found someone to intercept halfway, and he was already rushing to Dingxiang now, and he would be there in a few days." ”
When Li Siwen heard the news, he was also happy, but he couldn't help but feel sad, now that the eldest brother is mostly gone, what is the use of Li Chongyi coming? And compared with Li Chongyi, he is also Li Mu's younger brother, he is like a wasted person, but Li Chongyi has made such a big achievement with only 500 people, and the gap between the two is too big.
Li Siwen secretly gritted his teeth, and said in his heart, he can't be a daughter anymore, crying and crying all day long, most of the eldest brother is gone now, what's the use of crying again? For today's plan, he doesn't care about what to fight or not, what he is most concerned about is to find Li Mu's body, bring it back to Chang'an for burial, take care of Li Mu's wife and children, God has mercy, and the eldest brother has a future, so he will not be lonely.
When I return to Chang'an this time, I will resign. What kind of merit, Xingwu, I don't have this ability, I have to be a good young master, and I will be the survivor of this life.
Li Siwen was disheartened, walked out of the tent with his head drooped, and when the cold wind blew, he suddenly sneezed several times.
Li Siwen rubbed his nose, looked at the blood-colored remnant sun in the sky, and thought that his eldest brother might have been blown to pieces, he couldn't help but have a sour nose and was about to cry again.
At the same time, Li Mu, who finally crawled out of the rubble, also sneezed several times in a row.
"There must be another bastard nagging at me!"
