Chapter 491: Xiao Changye talks to Situ Lin
And Xiao Changye has been fighting with the Yi people for so long, and his side has not taken any advantage, but has lost many soldiers, which makes him feel very frustrated in his heart.
Xiao Changye realized that marching and fighting is too different from wandering the rivers and lakes, no matter whether you are the number one hero in the rivers and lakes, but when you get to the battlefield, no matter how strong your strength is, it will not work at all on your own.
Although he is strong in martial arts, he can't save every soldier who encounters danger, and it is a terrible feeling for an omnipotent person to suddenly one day find that he is no longer omnipotent and powerless.
At this moment, Xiao Changye suddenly thought of Guo Jing's hero in the Legend of the Condor Heroes, as a hero who ranked high in the rivers and lakes, and finally died while defending Xiangyang City.
In his previous life, he couldn't understand why the martial arts hero Guo Jing died on the battlefield, he always felt that Mr. Jin Yong deliberately wrote Guo Jing's life so tragic for the sake of effect, and it was not until now that he understood that this was the reality.
Thinking of this, Xiao Changye couldn't help but walk out of the camp, looked at the sky and muttered, "Xia Wei, can I win this battle?" ”
At the beginning, Xiao Changye was full of confidence when he received Xia Lin's appointment and would be able to live up to the emperor's order and complete the task assigned to him by Xia Lin.
Because, both in public and private, he had to clean up the Yi people, so he told himself that he must subdue the Yi people in the shortest possible time.
But after such a long battle, Xiao Changye had already realized that the people of the Yi tribe were not so easy to deal with.
The generals of the Yi tribe were very cunning and fierce, and besides, they had lived here for a long time, and the people who invaded the border where they lived from time to time were also very familiar with the terrain of the border pass.
This gave the Yi people a very big advantage in the battle, and it was easy for them to defend and attack.
Xiao Changye's brows couldn't help but tighten, now that his side not only has not enough people, but even ammunition is insufficient, if it continues like this, I'm afraid it will ......
"General...... Are you okay? Xiao Changye's personal guard ran over and saw Xiao Changye's brows tightened, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern.
Xiao Changye let out a long sigh, and looked at the wounded soldier who was limping forward not far away by the military doctor, and a trace of heartache slowly rose from his heart.
These soldiers are at home the children of their parents, the husbands of their wives, and the fathers of their children!
At the beginning, he received the emperor's order to take the soldiers to the front line to defend the country, and he secretly made an oath to bring as many people back as he took to the battle.
Now that the oath has been broken, what face does he have to meet the parents and relatives of the soldiers?
Seeing that Xiao Changye didn't answer, the personal guard asked softly again, Xiao Changye came back to his senses and shook his head gently: "I'm fine, I'm just worried that if this continues, the lives of the soldiers will be seriously threatened." ”
In this expedition, the accompanying military doctors were also insufficient, and after these battles, the number of wounded soldiers rose sharply, and the military doctors were no longer busy.
But now there is no way.
The personal guard understood what Xiao Changye was thinking, and couldn't bear to see Xiao Changye so sad, so he comforted: "General, we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy and drive out the people of the Yi tribe!" You must take care of yourself! General, you must cheer up, the soldiers still rely on your leadership! ”
Xiao Changye understood that the personal guards were for his good, he was right, now was a critical period, how could he, as the head of an army, collapse.
"You're right, I can't be depressed. We will definitely drive the aliens out of our land! Xiao Changye's face turned pale, nodded vigorously, remembered Situ Lin, and hurriedly asked, "By the way, how is Situ Lin now?" ”
The personal guards came for this matter, and when they heard Xiao Changye's question, they remembered it, and hurriedly replied: "General, I came to you just to tell you that Situ Gongzi has woken up." ”
"Great!" A hint of joy finally appeared on Xiao Changye's face, and he hurriedly turned around and strode towards the camp where Situ Lin was recuperating.
"Situ Lin, you finally woke up, I thought you were more than lucky this time." Xiao Changye walked into the camp tent and saw Situ Lin leaning on the head of the bed, his face was still pale, and the big stone in his heart suddenly fell to the ground, and he also had the idea of joking.
Situ Lin tugged at the corners of his chapped lips and said, "Xiao Changye, you're right, I did go to the Hades Palace for a turn. However, I am still so young, and my daughter-in-law has not yet married, and Lord Yama kicked me back because he thought I was too young. ”
Xiao Changye also laughed, although Situ Lin was seriously injured this time, his self-deprecating temperament still did not change.
"By the way, why are you here?" Xiao Changye sat down on the edge of Situ Lin's bed and asked.
That day, Situ Lin came suddenly, helped him out of the siege, and then he was injured, and before he could ask why Situ Lin appeared, he fell into a coma. Let's look for books
"If you hadn't arrived suddenly, I would have been the one who was injured. Thank you, brother! Without waiting for Situ Lin to answer, Xiao Changye sincerely thanked Situ Lin.
Situ Lin suddenly looked flattered, coughed a few times and waved his hand: "Don't, don't thank me." You think I'm willing to come, if it weren't for Xia Wei begging me, I wouldn't have come to this front line to die. ”
Situ Lin lowered his head as he spoke, he didn't want Xiao Changye to see that he chased after Xiao Changye because he couldn't rest assured.
Don't look at his usual chic and generous young chivalrous appearance, in fact, his heart is more sensitive and shy than anyone else.
Hearing this, Xiao Changye dragged his chin and glanced at Situ Lin: "Are you shy?" As a friend, what's there to be shy about when you're worried about my safety and come to my aid? ”
Situ Lin's face slowly flushed when he heard this, and he was annoyed in his heart, but the other party was Xiao Changye, and he had no choice but to change the topic and said: "Xiao Changye, is this Yi people really so difficult to deal with?" ”
When it came to the Yi tribe, Xiao Changye put away his thoughts about joking, and couldn't help but have a look of embarrassment on his face.
He nodded: "The Yi people have lived here for generations and are very familiar with the terrain of the border pass, so this battle is an advantage for them. ”
Situ Lin nodded: "You're right, this is really tricky, if we don't want to find a way, we will only be in a passive situation all the time." ”
Xiao Changye sighed and continued: "This is not the most troublesome, the most troublesome thing is that the Yi people are not only very familiar with the terrain, but also their group of aliens have a magical ability, which makes us lose many brothers one after another. ”
Even Xiao Changye, the leader of the Demon Sect, said that the magical ability, I'm afraid it's really not that simple.
Situ Lin frowned and asked, "What kind of magical ability are you talking about?" ”
Xiao Changye pondered for a moment and then told Situ Lin what he had encountered some time ago.
It turned out that since the camp, a few soldiers in Xiao Changye's army went out at night, but they always disappeared inexplicably and never returned.
The next day, the bodies of some of the soldiers were found in a camp not far away, but many more were not alive or dead.
This kind of thing happened one after another, and Xiao Nagano's soldiers gradually did not dare to go out of the camp at night anymore.
As a modern person who has received a materialist ideological education, Xiao Changye certainly does not believe that there are ghosts in this world, so he insisted on going out at night despite the persuasion of his personal guards.
The soldiers didn't dare to go out at night, and he, as the leader, was responsible for the safety of the entire team, so Xiao Nagano went out on patrol at night.
At first, he didn't encounter anything out of the ordinary.
Just as Xiao Nagano was about to return to the camp, he suddenly felt dizzy, and then the whole person turned around uncontrollably and walked in the opposite direction.
Xiao Changye still remembers very clearly, the power that controlled him at that moment was very strong, although his brain clearly knew that he was on a path of no return, but his body was uncontrollable, and gradually even his brain was blurred.
"Is it really that amazing?" Situ Lin couldn't help but sweat for Xiao Changye when he heard this, you must know that Xiao Changye is a god-like existence, and he will actually be plotted by others!
And from his mouth, if the other party is very strong, it means that it is really strong, no wonder this battle has not been won so far.
Xiao Changye nodded, he glanced at Situ Lin, and his fists gradually tightened: "I originally wanted to resist immediately, as long as I use all my strength, it will not be difficult to get out of the control of the Yi people." However, I wanted to find out what had happened recently, so I withdrew my internal forces and followed them in obedience. ”
"I haven't seen this kind of power before, but it's similar to hypnosis, so I'll call it hypnotism for now. The Yi people used hypnotism to take me to their territory, and I saw many corpses of our soldiers. Only then did I realize that the Yi people were so despicable and used this method to trick our soldiers into their territory and slaughter them wantonly. Xiao Changye clenched his fists, and his eyes burst out with hatred for the Yi people.
These Yi people rely on their magical abilities to power their borders and oppress their people, and he must do whatever it takes to drive these aliens away from their borders!
"And how did you get out of danger?" Seeing that Xiao Changye didn't continue, Situ Lin couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Changye came back to his senses and said, "Now that I have figured out the truth about the disappearance of the soldiers, I think it's time to leave. But at this time, my struggle alarmed the Yi people, and when they tried to use all their strength against me, I used the magic power of the Demon Sect to escape. When I returned, I ordered the soldiers to guard the camp gate at night and never go out! ”
Situ Lin nodded with some fear: "That's really too dangerous, we must think about a strategy, we can't just sit still!" ”
