Chapter 337: The Truth of the Matter

However, they soon saw that Zhu Lihua waved his hand to him, so several relieved soldiers hurriedly withdrew from the house, and when they left, they also peeked at Liang Qingshu, whose face was also full of anger.

Most of these pro-soldiers were people who followed Lihua when they were in Yuxiao Pass, so in their opinion, Liang Qingshu and Gao Yunce, Wei Yuanqi, and An Moran were like siblings of Lihua, but at this time, they didn't understand why this sibling quarreled with his master.

This made them mumble, and their hearts were speculating wildly about the possibilities that would happen between the two.

"See, are you satisfied?"

After seeing the soldiers exiting the house, Lihua asked Liang Qingshu unhappily, obviously the expressions on the faces of the soldiers were all seen in Lihua's eyes.

But Liang Qingshu didn't think so at all, he still raised his head and put on a look of never giving up.

"Ugh."

Finally, the pale-faced Zhu Lihua sighed, and said to Liang Qingshu with some helplessness on his face:

"Brother Liang, let's talk about it, say whatever you want to say, and I'll give you an explanation."

"Don't you know what I'm going to say?

You have changed, you are no longer the brother who led our humble sons to fight against the noble children in the council hall, and there is only justice in your heart.

You are no longer the leader of the Sumeru Wolf who was full of only thinking about protecting the family and defending the country when you were in Yuxiao Pass, and led us to go to the border alone to investigate the Sumeru wolf for the sake of our dead brothers.

You no longer dare to ask for the lives of those rebels, and you will not hesitate to offend the nobles of the whole state to invite the greater ones to set up a shrine for those rebels.

What is the difference between you now and those nobles who drink human blood and eat human flesh?

You pushed Niu Yong, Huang Yunhe, and the nearly 10,000 soldiers under their command into the abyss of death.

You have killed the robes who adorned you in their fantasies, and they fantasized that no matter how difficult it was, their generals, their left-hand greats, would still lead them to victory.

Therefore, they are fearless, and they are not afraid to stand up to the Rong people who are many times their own, because until they die, they still think that you will lead them to the final victory.

So you're a liar, a complete liar.

You told me you weren't going to save them both in the first place, did you?

If I hadn't asked for the rescue, I am afraid that I would not have been able to bring back General Niu's body, let alone know what a tragic battle they fought under Muyang City.

The whole army is in ink.

Have you ever heard of an army that fought the enemy to the last man without collapsing?

No, never!

You gave them hope for life, but you were afraid that they would surrender and be defeated.

But how I wish they had surrendered at the last moment, even if they were defeated, it would be better than all dying by the water.

Say it yourself, are you a liar, Lihua! ”

Speaking of this, Liang Qingshu couldn't hold back his emotions anymore, and he finally broke down completely.

A man in his twenties, a powerful minister in Hedong County, Daqin, who covered the sky with one hand, howled and cried in front of his boss in the mansion of Lihua.

"You're wrong."

After crying for a long time, Liang Qingshu raised his head after hearing Lihua's words, and with doubts in anger, he stared at the familiar face in front of him and said:

"Am I wrong? Are you going to tell me that you forced them to die because you gave them a decent way to die?

You let them escape the end of being court-martialed, is it your helpless choice to focus on the overall situation?

Don't tell me this, it's just your right and wrong, and I only know that the soldiers killed the nobles and killed their enemies.

And they are even more loyal to you, and even more loyal to this terminally ill Great Qin. ”

"Oh? Is it? Do all the innocent nobles in the world deserve to die, and they are all their enemies? ”

Zhu Lihua looked at Liang Qingshu's red eyes and said softly. Then, he took out a few crumpled letters from his arms and handed them to Liang Qingshu.

"See for yourself."

Zhu Lihua said weakly.

And after Liang Qingshu took the letter, he first noticed that the letter had been kneaded and somewhat damaged, and knew that Zhu Lihua had also read the letter repeatedly.

He opened the letters and read them carefully.

"Zuo Daren, yesterday I found a letter written by Rong Shuai Lin Xu to the two generals Huang and Niu from the soldiers who slaughtered the people outside the city, asking them to cooperate with the inside and outside after Huangyin was besieged. After the deed was completed, the two generals and high-ranking officials were allowed to be generous.

However, Xizi thought that this matter did not rule out the discord of the Rong army, although the two generals had slaughtered the nobles and wealthy families, but the loyalty of the two generals should not be doubted

.......”

"Zuo Daren, Fang Cai has already sent the letter to the two generals Huang and Niu respectively according to the instructions of the adults, and I think that before the hall discussion for a while, the two generals will definitely find this letter. At that time, if the two generals really took refuge in the Rong army, they would definitely show clues

......”

"Zuo Daren, since the two generals Huang and Niu took the initiative to lead the order to attack Muyang, Muyin and the two cities, there is nothing abnormal in the three days, among which General Huang also beheaded all the soldiers we released who slaughtered the people. It seems that the letter was mostly Lin Xu's discordant plan, and the two generals were innocent. ”

......

"The two generals expressed their determination to die to the last general after they were drunk last night, and in order to keep their subordinates from retreating, the two generals hope that the left greater people will not send reinforcements, they are afraid that the reinforcements will not only not save them but will also be in prison."

As Liang Qingshu finished reading the few letters, he suddenly found that cold sweat had oozed from behind him.

That Lin Xu seems to have really inherited Xiao Da Danyu's style, and he also likes to use these methods of internal discord, but if he hadn't discovered it earlier, maybe he would still be in the dark and think that Huangyin City was a monolith.

He slowly stood up and was about to leave, but found that Zhu Lihua suddenly looked up at him and said slowly:

"Brother Liang, don't you want to ask me why I know that the two generals Niu and Huang are innocent, but still send them to death?"

I saw Liang Qingshu shake his head slightly, stared at the sky outside the house, and said, "No, if you just deliberately let them die because of the slaughter of nobles under their command, then you will become the bureaucrat that I Liang Qingshu hates the most."

Unscrupulous means in order to win people's hearts.

But if you fall for Lin Xu's discordant scheme, and deliberately tell the two generals Niu and Huang so that they can take the initiative to express their hearts and attitudes, and choose to do things that sacrifice themselves to fulfill others, then I will only treat you as a loss in the hands of Lin Xu, and dare not gamble on the loyalty of the two generals Niu and Huang with the fate of Huang Yin and Daqin.

If this is the case, you will indeed suffer more than me, and I will do my best to help you defeat Lin Xu and avenge the two generals. ”

"Brother Liang, Brother Liang, who knows my heart. But why didn't you ask me why I really didn't send troops to save the two of them? After Liang Qingshu finished speaking, Zhu Lihua immediately showed a look of excitement and then hurriedly asked.

And Liang Qingshu shook his head after hearing Zhu Lihua's question and said, "I don't want to know." ”

"No, I should tell you, let you know.

Because they had already been ordered to attract the attention of the Rong army, if they did not die, Weimu's cavalry would not be able to enter Lishan.

As you expected, I gave them hope, that is, I wanted them to fight with the hope of survival, so that they would not want to surrender, and they would definitely drag Lin Xu's Rong army in the cities of Muyang and Muyin.

So, I took advantage of their loyalty to me, to Daqin. ”

"No, don't say it. I don't want to hear it. Hearing the words of Zhu Lihua without concealing it, Liang Qingshu showed a face full of pain, and immediately said loudly.

And Zhu Lihua had no intention of stopping his words, he saw Liang Qingshu gradually becoming more and more painful, and he became more and more excited and said loudly:

"Brother Liang, whether Daqin survives or dies, success or failure is just a matter of fighting in Huangyin.

I believe that the two generals, Niu and Huang, will understand my distress under Jiuquan, and you will also understand.

You also know that I made the decision to let them attack Muyang and Muyin, but I am also the one who suffers, so whether my order is right or wrong, it is only my responsibility after all.

So Brother Liang, if the result of 5,000 people killed in battle is that General Wei has hope to enter Lishan smoothly, and the result of 10,000 people killed in battle is that General Wei will definitely enter Lishan smoothly, then how to choose, Brother Liang really doesn't understand? ”

As he spoke, he looked at Liang Qingshu who turned around and walked out of the house, and when his words fell, he heard Liang Qingshu's voice with great pain coming into his ears.

"If it were me, maybe I would have done the same. It's just too cruel to do so.

And for you, I'm afraid that except for Xi Zihui, other Shu generals have reasons to be abandoned by you.

However, this is also the bearing that a general should have.

Compassion is not in charge of soldiers, righteousness is not in charge of wealth, love is not in charge, and goodness is not an official! ”

Listening to Liang Qingshu's heavy footsteps getting farther and farther, Zhu Lihua buried his face deep in his palm, but muttered to himself: "Cruel, do you all think I am willing to do this?" Our opponent is no ordinary general, and if we are not cruel, we will not be able to continue to hold on. ”

Zhu Lihua said bitterly, but the only thing that responded to this was the whimper of Da Lang and Ji Lang.

They rubbed their furry foreheads against Lihua's legs, as if to comfort their master, and as if to say to him, "You did the right thing." ”

Outside Huangyin City, the three armies were vegetarian, and Lihua personally added the last handful of loess to Niu Yong's tomb, and then walked towards Huangyin City surrounded by everyone.

For this fierce-looking but actually soft-hearted warrior buried under the loess, Zhu Lihua's heart was full of infinite grief. And seeing Niu Yong's old department of No. 100 crying on the side, not only was it Qi Lihua who was in his heart but he was forced not to show a sad look, but even the whole army was sad and sad when they heard this cry.

Recalling Niu Yong's hearty smile in the past, Huang Yunhe's cold face that was always full of murderous aura, Zhu Lihua glanced back at the lonely grave again, and swore in his heart: "Niu and Huang, two big brothers, don't blame me for being ruthless." But there is a debtor and a debtor, and I swear that I will avenge the two of you. ”
