Yingyue followed Zhang Fan to the side. There was something strange on his face. With the appearance of a child who has done something wrong in front of an adult. But it is also a little stubborn. It looks like he didn't do anything wrong at all.

Zhang Fan looked at Yingyue like this. Where can I say the words of reprimanding that I want to say? My heart tossed and turned. In the end, it was just a helpless sigh.

Heard Zhang Fan's sigh. Yingyue was happy in her heart. She understood that this meant that she would not be blamed by Zhang Fan. Although Yingyue usually shows that she doesn't care about the rules and the like that Zhang Fan said to her. But in her heart, she still didn't want to go against Zhang Fan's intentions. Merely. There are some things that go against Zhang Fan's intentions. In the heart of the moon, it is actually much more important.

"You'll ...... next time Forget it. Zhang Fan spoke. Halfway through the conversation, I got stuck again. He knew that Yingyue would not listen to these words. No. Actually, to speak. Including Ru Xue and Luo Ling'er, these girls are inside. It doesn't matter who is in this situation. They won't listen to him. Merely. comparatively. Ru Xue and Luo Ling'er were too weak. They weren't as strong as Yingyue. Naturally, you can't do this kind of walking thousands of miles alone. The act of invading this dangerous place. But they all have the same feelings for Zhang Fan. Compared with. Yingyue's move to see Zhang Fan no matter what. Behind it is even more shows her great loneliness.

"Your Excellency. This was sent by the people of the city. Adults and Moon Girl, let's eat quickly. I've been tired all day today. I don't know what else will happen next. It's better to fill your stomach quickly. Liang Chao was carrying a food box. came to Zhang Fan and said.

"Put it here." Zhang Fan commanded.

Liang Chao put the food box down. Wanted to say something. But I saw the scene of Zhang Fan and Yingyue now. I swallowed back the words that came to my mouth. Turn away.

Zhang Fan can be said to be hungry now. He pulled the food box. Just about to open it. But it stopped suddenly. Keep your eyes on the food box**.

"Brother Fan. What's the matter. Uncomfortable. Seeing Zhang Fan staring at the food box but not moving. Yingyue on the side was afraid that Zhang Fan would be a little uncomfortable. Quickly asked.

"Nope. Nothing. Zhang Fan shook his head and said. Yue'er. I ask you. Do you think I'm a little stupid? I could have gotten out of here. Even if I knew that this place was going to be attacked by the Fuso people under the city now. But then. After all, this news is still uncertain. At that time, even if I just left here, I would go to the capital. Then the incident happened. Nothing counts to me. And now. I stayed. Although I know that those Fuso people in the city don't really want my life. But now I'm still in a situation where it's going to kill someone. ”

"Brother Fan......" Yingyue listened to what you said. I don't know what to say. Although her life has only been a short period of more than 16 years. But she's been through so much in the past 16 years. Perhaps this feeling of self-sacrifice has been worn out from the moment she was born. But she didn't know how to talk to Zhang Fan.

"I know. You must think I'm stupid in your heart. Zhang Fan said. Even in my own heart. It's not that I haven't thought about it that way. Although I say that I read poetry books a lot. I read and memorized a lot of the subset of scriptures. The teachings of the saints are also very clear. I thought it in my heart before. This kind of thing doesn't need to be said by anyone at all. Naturally, this should be done.

"But when the Fuso army under the city bombarded this tower with artillery, it was just. At that time, I actually fainted. When I woke up. Although the time is short. It's still in danger. But in my heart, I can't help but think. Why am I doing this?

"The letter that just shot up from under the city shook my heart even more. Know that the enemy's purpose is not to do anything to slaughter the people here. It's just a deterrent. So that the imperial court can intervene in Fuso. But someone is bound to die. And I'm among them now.

"I called you here because I wanted to tell you. It's just not just trying to get you back. In my heart, I actually wanted to say it. Let's go back together. But I can't say that at all. Especially in women. Or in front of their own woman. ”

"Brother Fan......" Yingyue called in an extremely soft voice. She had never heard of it. Or maybe she didn't think about it at all. In today's world. There will be a man who will say this to the woman. It can be called a cowardly word.

In fact. Zhang Fan just said what all ordinary people would think. is not a worldly master who sees through the red dust. Or something that has become boring and lost. Where will there be someone who is not afraid of death. Especially on a battlefield where you can die at any time without knowing it. But few men would say that. And in front of a woman.

"But just now. I understand. Why the hell am I staying and fighting? Zhang Fan said. His gaze became serious. Pointing to the food box in front of him, he said. "It's because of it."

Yingyue followed Zhang Fan's hand and looked at the food box. I couldn't help but show a curious look. The food box in front of her can be described as extremely ordinary. It is woven with different bamboo strips. No suits. Or so to speak. It's ugly. Just look at it. This food box must be just an ordinary person's object. It is also used very frequently on weekdays. Especially that handle. It has been ground to a very smooth surface. I don't know how many years have passed.

Merely. Yingyue still couldn't understand what Zhang Fan meant. She didn't see at all that Zhang Fan was staying in this place where he could die at any time. What does it have to do with this food box.

"It's actually very simple." Zhang Fan seemed to know that Yingyue would not understand. Speak. "Naturally, it is for the hundreds of thousands of people who are now gathered in this Yangzhou city. Although we understand the purpose of the Fuso people to attack us this time. and knew that they would not slaughter these people. But once the city was breached. Those people who don't know the truth will naturally panic. This panic. But I don't know what kind of mess is going to happen.

"At the end of the day. This is not for the sake of any national righteousness, nor is it for any court and emperor. And it's just for the sake of these civilians. And these people. It is also a high expectation for us. It's almost past the ugly time. At this time, everyone should rest. Even now this city is facing the situation of being overwhelmed by a large army. The people of the city could not sleep. But they won't have the leisure to cook for us. But now this food box is here. Doesn't that speak for itself? The people of the city say they care about us. It's better that they want us to defend this Yangzhou city. Although the number of enemy soldiers attacking outside the city was only a tenth of theirs. But war. Especially this kind of war to defend the homeland and defend the country. There should always be only those who are responsible to rush to the front. And the people should never be implicated. ”

Zhang Fan's words are very clear. But Yingyue is not very clear. Or maybe she understood what Zhang Fan was going to say. But I can't agree with what Zhang Fan said. She was born in the Southwest. There are countless small and large tribal towns. In addition, although the court of the Ming Dynasty nominally has jurisdiction over it. But as long as there is no rebellion or anything like that. The imperial court will not ask at all. It looks very calm now. But actually. There was never a cessation of fighting between the various tribes.

Yingyue still remembers when she was young. Even her sister told her. Whenever this happens. You must do everything in your power to help your tribe survive this difficult situation. In this way, people can live a good life. At the beginning, Yingyue took this as a belief. At a very young age, he knew how to do something for the tribe he lived in.

But with the passage of time. People are growing up. Many things Yingyue is also ignorant from the beginning. I got to the point where I felt something. Especially after her sister's affair again. Her perspective changed completely. She began to find out. What fights with other tribes for the sake of ordinary people in the tribe. It's just a manifestation of the desires and ambitions of the tribal leaders.

So many years. The tribe where Yingyue lived fought dozens of times with other tribes. There are wins and losses. But whether it is a win or a defeat. Yingyue found that the lives of the people in the tribe had never improved. It can even be said that the situation is getting worse. Every fight. The dead were ordinary soldiers. They're just ordinary people. In this way, the name was buried for the ambition of some very few. And after death, their families get nothing but pain.

And now. All this Zhang Fan said. It's all so normal. The reason why the war is happening here. It's just because of the ambitions of some people. But just now in the city. For the first time, she personally participated in the battle. For the first time, I saw these ordinary soldiers. Even after the performance of the people in it. Yingyue also had some different thoughts in her heart. Although there is no way to say it yet. But what Zhang Fan said just now. Let her understand.

"Look at the world. Aren't they all bad? At least here. I can see something different. Yingyue couldn't help but think in her heart.
