"Lord Han, don't get excited. Lin is not insulting you, but reasoning with you. If you don't like to hear it, let's stop there. Lin Jue said with a smile.

Han Gang was also aware of his own situation, no matter how he said that others had saved the lives of hundreds of his people, healed the wounds of his own people, and provided food and drink. A few words to turn the other cheek, that's too much. Besides, if you really want to do it, I am afraid that none of my 400 remnants of the defeated army will survive.

Han Gang sat down slowly, and arched his hand: "Lord Lin, it's not that Han is rude, but Lord Lin's words are true...... It is unacceptable to call Han. Although Han has not read any books, he believes that he is loyal to the monarch and serves the country, and he believes that he has not done anything that hurts nature and harms the people. But in the eyes of Lord Lin, we seem to be worthless. ”

Lin Jue softened his tone and said in a deep voice: "Lord Han, you can't stand my words, so have you thought about our feelings?" I, Lin Jue, also think that I have done my best for the imperial court, and I have not done anything that hurts heaven and reason. But don't you still end up being called a 'traitor' in your mouth? You may say that I did rebel. But I clearly gave the reason for the incident of our Luoyan Army, which of you really believes it? Just like you, General Han, obviously know that our Luoyan Army announced the world, but you still don't choose not to believe it? What happened in the capital that day, Lin Mou's personal experience, and the jade seal left by the emperor as evidence, the facts are clear, don't you still think it is a lie? In other words, people believe what they want to believe. If it doesn't suit your heart, you will choose to ignore the hard facts in front of you, right? ”

Han Gang groaned: "What if Han believes it? Han is only a general in the army, and it doesn't matter whether he believes it or not. ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "This is the truth." That's why I say you're a muddled fool. Until now, you didn't know what you were maintaining yourself. Even if you are defending a traitor who killed your father and brother and usurped the throne, you still choose to bow down and obey orders without any doubts. Isn't that an evil? You say that you have not done anything that hurts nature and reason, then let me ask you, when a person destroys the ethics of the Gangchang, commits heinous crimes, undermines the morality of benevolence and righteousness, and disregards the ethics of the people, this person has already violated the most basic bottom line of being a human being and has become a beast-like person. You still choose to be loyal to such a person, isn't this hurtful? ”

Han Gang opened his mouth and was speechless for a long time. In fact, regarding the earth-shattering incident in the capital last year, even if the imperial court strictly ordered it to be silenced, even if it adopted high-pressure measures to block the mouths of people all over the world. But the more this kind of thing is forbidden, the more it will be spread secretly. Han Gang's rank in the army is not low, and he knows many things better than others. Comparing the explanations of the imperial court and the announcements of the Luoyan Army, it is not difficult to find out who is more detailed and convincing. It's just that in Han Gang's view, no matter what, the disputes within the Guo royal family are internal to the royal family, and as a general in the army, he has no right to accuse these things. On the contrary, for Lin Jue and others' betrayal of the capital, Han Gang regarded it as a kind of rebellion. This is actually the general psychology of officials. But Han Gang also had to admit that if the current emperor Guo Xu really killed his father and brother in the harem during the seizure of the throne, then he would have gone too far. Deep down, Han Gang couldn't agree with this. It's just that as a courtier of the Great Zhou, he can't get rid of the confinement of his identity, and he doesn't have the courage and qualifications to make accusations.

At this moment, Lin Jue's questioning made Han Gang speechless. If Guo Xu really did those things, he would be inferior to a beast. If you want to be loyal to him, isn't that also tantamount to doing evil?

"The emperor may not have done these things you said. Do you know that you are not framed? If you want to rebel, what cannot you say? It is also possible to pour dirty water on the emperor. Han Gang held back for a long time and held back this sentence.

Sun Da had the courage to scold again, but Lin Jue waved his hand to stop him, and said to Han Gang with a smile: "General Han, I don't think it's appropriate for us to continue this topic." Speaking of which, you will prevaricate with a word of unbelief. I don't want to talk to you about it. I don't need you to take my word for it. People all over the world scold me Lin Jue for being a thief, and I don't care about you more. Lin only does what he should do, and it is absolutely impossible for Lin to be a vassal to a thief who has lost his conscience and killed his father, his brother, and the queen mother. I, Lin Jue, and the Luoyan army have so far considered themselves to be subjects of the Great Zhou, and we raised the banner against it, but it was not the Great Zhou, but Guo Xu, the usurper traitor. Whatever you think, that's what we're all about. This can also be used as an answer to the previous question you asked me why I wanted to save you, because we are all subjects of the Great Zhou, and the Liao people are our common enemies, and I will naturally not stand idly by when you encounter danger. Because I Lin Jue is against Guo Xu, not Da Zhou Sheji. General Han and these brothers are all good sons of my Great Zhou, and they are all soldiers who killed the enemy for the Great Zhou, and Lin has no enmity with you, only respect. That's why we make a move. I don't know if General Han can be satisfied with this answer. ”

Han Gang said in a deep voice: "However, Lord Lin's previous actions were also based on this purpose? And not what...... Don't have any intentions. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "Don't have any intentions? Yang Jun is a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Today's words are to you, General Han, if it is Yang Jun sitting in front of me, I don't bother to talk to him. There was no room for reconciliation between him and me, and it was natural for him to think that everything I did had ulterior motives. What I did before was not because of Yang Jun, I said it, I am for the sake of Da Zhou, for the people of Da Zhou. Originally, Guo Xu's rash use of troops against the Liao State was already a stupid move, if you were defeated, the consequences would be unimaginable. Naturally, I hope to prevent this from happening. The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are already very miserable, and if they suffer from the disaster of war again, the people will not be able to survive. ”

Lin Jue said at the end, his smile was retracted, and his expression was extremely solemn. His tone and look showed that he was extremely worried, and that he was genuinely worried. Han Gang thought to himself: If Lin Jue really thinks so, then this person is awe-inspiring. Those who have compassion for the Great Zhou and the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are afraid that they will not be so evil. As for all kinds of complicated grievances and grievances, the different opinions that do not know the truth can actually be put aside and ignored for the time being.

"Lord Lin, the reminder of the signal flare before is also your doing." Han Gang asked.

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Yes, seeing that you rushed into the Liao ambush circle unprepared, I had to take the risk of raising the alarm." The Liao people hope to wait for all your more than 20,000 cavalry to enter the ambush circle before they make a move, and they want to eat you in one bite. How can I let them succeed? So they were sent flares in advance. For this reason, my two brothers exposed their positions and were almost shot by the Liao. ”

Han Gang bowed his hand again and thanked him from the bottom of his heart. He knew in his heart that Lin Jue had not only saved the four hundred of them, but also because of his warning. The team stopped. The tens of thousands of cavalry in the rear did not rush into the ambush circle. The lives of tens of thousands of people can be regarded as Lin Jue's rescue. Thinking about the consequences of Lin Juefa's police fireworks, Han Gang's heart was cold, and cold sweat broke out on the back of his spine.

"Lord Lin, Han apologizes to you for his previous impulsiveness, I believe that Lord Lin is a person who understands righteousness, not any purpose. No matter what others think, after today, Han is grateful for Lord Lin's kindness. His chances will be rewarded. Han Gang said heartily.

Lin Jue smiled: "That's not necessary, I just hope that there will be no soldiers in the future." I never thought about anything in return. ”

Han Gang nodded and looked up at the sky. It was already dark, and the sky was already showing stars, and the whole sky was solemn.

Han Gang stood up and arched his hand: "Lord Lin, thanks to your rescue, we were able to live, but we are afraid that we will not be able to stay here for a long time." Ours rushed back to the army as soon as possible. My front team was attacked, and I don't know what happened next. Marshal Yang, I'm afraid they are still waiting for us to report the situation, and we have to rush back. ”

Lin Jue got up and pointed to a group of wounded soldiers lying on the grass in the distance and said, "But this group of wounded soldiers can't walk." Besides, it is extremely dangerous in this mountain wilderness, and I don't know if the Liao soldiers and horses are searching, so General Han really wants to risk going back? ”

Han Gang said: "I plan to leave the wounded soldiers to hide, my army is not far from the north, the Liao people will not dare to stay any longer, I think there should be no danger." When I return to the camp to explain the situation, I will bring someone to pick them up and bring them back to recuperate. Can you get rid of Lord Lin and take care of them for me for a while. ”

Lin Jue looked at Han Gang with a strange expression and said, "General Han doesn't want us to die here?" ”

Han Gang was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what Lin Jue meant. If Yang Jun knew where Lin Jue and the others were, wouldn't he send troops to surround them? If he asked Lin Jue to help take care of the wounded soldiers, that was not the same as letting Lin Jue wait for them to die here.

"I'm sorry, Lord Lin can leave some water and dry food for them, so you don't have to take care of them." Han Gang said.

"Joke, you've already consumed a lot of our supplies, and we still have to leave dry food and water for them? Are we really the bodhisattvas in the temple, and we can't respond to our requests? Gao Muqing said coldly.

Han Gang slammed his mouth and said: "That's it, you can't die of hunger for a day and a half, my request is really excessive, you have done your duty." Just when I didn't say it. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "General Han doesn't have to mind, we are indeed understipated, and we can't provide the supplies of your nearly four hundred people." Please bear with me. We still have a long way to go. We've been delayed here for too long. ”

Han Gang asked, "I wonder where you're going?" ”

Lin Jue smiled at him and didn't answer, and Han Gang suddenly realized that he had asked the wrong thing. As if he was listening to their whereabouts, it aroused suspicion.

"Sorry, I'm sorry, I don't ask. In short, the great kindness is not grateful. We remember the life-saving grace of Lord Lin and all of you. He will be rewarded one day. That one...... Han said goodbye to Master Lin here, I have to leave. Han Gang said busily.

Lin Jue nodded and arched his hand. Han Gang turned around and ordered someone to lead the horse, and then walked to explain a few words to those wounded soldiers. Lin Jue suddenly stopped him.

"Lord Han stays, I have a word of advice."
