Chapter 17: Cruel Unspoken Rules
Match the realm of the stars to the realm of the royal road!
The realm of this world is like identity, there are up and down, but there is no difference between high and low, that is, it does not fully represent your strength. For example, a beggar whose blood is noble on the street is definitely not as strong as you, but his status is definitely nobler than yours. Although the previous Wang Jian inherited the mandate of heaven and was in the realm of the emperor, he couldn't defeat the scoundrels in the realm of the common people, this is the truth. However, the growth realm of the Emperor Realm must be much higher than that of other realms.
In the same way, although Ma Mi is in the realm of the stars, there is still a gap from the realm of Haoge's royal road, and the golden light is a little paused, and an arrow pierces Ma Miao's right shoulder armor, bringing out a string of blood beads and flying towards Wang Jian.
At the moment of life and death, Wang Jian hurriedly clenched the embroidered spring knife in his hand with both hands, and roared "drinking" after tying up the horse, and used the dragon qi all over his body to stab at the golden light. The embroidered spring knife slashed at the arrow, making a series of sparks, and finally changed its trajectory the moment the blade hit the arrow feather, and an arrow shot a soldier next to him to death.
This knife, as if he had exhausted all his true qi, did not wait for Wang Jian to take a breath, Haoge's second and third arrows shot out one after another.
"Blood Sacrifice - Heavenly Punishment" is invincible within 50 steps, and "Heavenly Punishment Three Arrows" is invincible within 100 steps!
At this moment of crisis, Ma Mi did not hesitate to sacrifice her skills to use her secret technique to break through her star peak to the realm of the royal road, which was worthy of picking up the second arrow with one shot, while Chen Qi'er flew in front of Wang Jian and resisted the third arrow with her flesh and blood.
"No!!" Wang Jian shouted in despair, this time he was really afraid, afraid of losing Qi'er, although he had only traveled for dozens of days, but this silent girl was like a relative who had known him for many years, he only needed a look to understand his mind, he was the person he trusted the most, and he was also the person he deserved to protect with his life.
Wang Jian would never allow Chen Qi'er to die by his side, he grabbed Chen Qi'er's thin waist and then twisted it hard, Chen Qi'er turned behind him like a spinning top and crawled on his back. Because of this series of actions, he also lost precious dodge time, and he had to stare at the speeding golden light with angry eyes.
"Come on!!" Wang Jian let out a loud shout, and an extremely strong yellow berserk dragon qi appeared where he stood, enveloping him in the center, like the last bloom before life withered.
The golden light shot to the center of his eyebrows with a "whoosh", and just when he thought he was going to die, the strange thing was that the golden light was frozen there as if time stood still, so that Wang Jian's eyes became more and more sour, and he almost looked like a cross-eyed.
Just when Wang Jianzheng was wondering how to not die, suddenly, a few inches in front of his eyebrows, purple light flourished, and a sword light rushed out of the sky.
"Ziwei Sword!"
It turned out that the Ziwei Sword appeared directly in front of his forehead at some point, and the golden light shot on the sword, and the Ziwei Sword delivered this fatal blow for him. Wang Jian grabbed the Ziwei sword hovering in the center of his eyebrows, and took advantage of the situation to split the arrow that had been exhausted. He raised his sword and turned around, glaring at Chen Yuanyuan, who had appeared on the slope out of nowhere.
When Chen Yuanyuan came, he happened to see him protecting Chen Qi'er regardless of life and death, and he was very moved, so he gave him a rare smile, but soon the smile froze on her pretty face, because she felt Wang Jian's murderous aura, more precisely, anger.
Wang Jian was furious!
He is a good-looking, impulsive, very cheerful, kind, small temperament and quick temperament, but rarely get angry, once angry, regardless of it, often the closer the person is, the more unlucky! At this moment, he was angry with Chen Yuanyuan and deliberately made the stumbling block not give him the Ziwei Sword, almost killing Chen Qi'er!
Wang Jian didn't say a word, a sword slashed towards Chen Yuanyuan, the smile on Chen Yuanyuan's face quickly turned into ridicule, she lightly buttoned the pipa string "choked", Wang Jian was also in mid-air by a strong bombardment of a circle, fell to the ground and smashed a big pit, and fell a dog eating.
"Hmph, it's not enough!"
Seeing Wang Jian being beaten, Ma Miaomei said coquettishly: "Chen Yuanyuan! She held Yin Xue tightly, but did not move.
Chen Qi'er was also used to seeing a small quarrel between the two of them every three days and a big quarrel every five days, but she just exclaimed and hurriedly helped Wang Jian out of the pit.
Wang Jian's confident sword was smashed and eaten, and he was extremely depressed. In fact, this is not because his strength is not good, mainly because the Ziwei Sword has long been merged with the Tianmu Pipa, which led to the "mutiny" when the Ziwei Sword was against Chen Yuanyuan, and he didn't know it, so he suffered a secret loss.
Wang Jian vaguely felt this kind of rebellion, losing people does not lose the battle, he glared at Chen Yuanyuan fiercely, and put down a cruel sentence that was not painful: "Come back and clean you up!" ”
Chen Yuanyuan snorted lightly and was very disdainful, naturally he would not take Wang Jian's threat in his eyes. She never cares about the life and death of others, so she will leisurely eat melon seeds on the city tower when Luanzhou's city defense is the tightest. This is also related to the "Secret of the Noble Concubine" she cultivated, and she has already cultivated to the highest level of this mental method: Heaven and Earth are not benevolent. With her realm and mental method, she is confident that there are almost no people in the world who can kill her, she doesn't have to look at anyone's face to live, she can freely wander between heaven and earth!
Wang Jian saw that Haoge seemed to be about to escape, so he no longer entangled with Chen Yuanyuan, and was full of anger and carried the Ziwei sword towards Haoge. The defenders on the hillside also saw the reinforcements from the periphery coming in, and their morale was even greater.
Haoge couldn't take Wang Jian's life when he used the "three arrows of heavenly punishment", and he was unable to send any more arrows, and he lost precious time to retreat, and Wu Sangui's peripheral army soon surrounded them and carried out the final siege.
Haoge saw that more and more soldiers around him were dying, which was more uncomfortable than killing him, these people were the capital of his future position, but he didn't want to be careless, and they were all ruined in this small Luanzhou City.
With full of unwillingness and resentment, he glanced at the small hillside where Wang Jian was, and escaped from the siege under the desperate protection of more than 300 Bayalas.
After a day of fierce fighting, more than 40,000 Guanning troops still suffered more than 10,000 casualties under the overall superiority, which shows how strong Haoge's Zhenglan Banner is. The soldiers were even more exhausted, so Wang Jian ordered that all battalions should not enter the city to beg for mercy, so they camped outside the city, rested for one night, and set off for the south tomorrow.
In the evening, the sun sets. Wang Jian stood alone on the small slope where the remnants of the Eight Hundred Guanning were killed and was speechless for a long time, and even the slight breeze was accompanied by a thick bloody aura. The rebellious he also "scrambled" on the street a few times in middle school, but those were all petty fights, if I told you, that kind of street group fight will kill people, who would dare to go on? But this time it was completely different, even the people brought out by Cuijia Village were killed more than 20 times, including the "third brother" in Cui Dazhuang's mouth. He thought of Cui Jianqiang on the mountain watching them go away, although he didn't say it, but Wang Jian knew that he hoped that Wang Jian could take his children and grandchildren back alive. But one by one, their lives were lost like this, and they didn't even know their names, as if they had never lived in this world. He deeply felt the fragility of life, as well as his responsibility---- this is not a game, but a living person.
After the generals counted the casualties of each battalion, they wanted to report on the battle situation, and it could be seen that Wang Jian didn't say a word and seemed to have a murderous atmosphere, so they didn't dare to touch the mold, so they had to invite Chen Yao'er, Wang Jian's favorite personal maid on weekdays.
"Your Majesty, after a tired day, I haven't eaten dinner, if you don't eat, the slaves and maids won't eat either." Chen Yao'er made Wang Jian's favorite red date rice cake, she knew that Wang Jian was heavy-minded, so she said coquettishly.
Wang Jian's thoughts were slowly pulled back, and he pinched Chen Yao'er's pretty face affectionately: "If I starve you, I can't bear it." ”
Wang Jian gently took Yao'er's hand and sat on the small slope, he picked up the red date rice cake in the box and took a bite, and praised: "It's really fragrant, sweet but not greasy, you can taste it too." ”
Wang Jian handed the bitten rice cake to Chen Yao'er's mouth, and she also took a shy bite, so the two figures, one big and one small, were happily attached to each other in the afterglow of the sunset.
After eating the rice cakes, Wang Jian beckoned to the crowd to answer.
Wang Jian thought that the deceased was gone, and he should treat the living well, so he said, "How are the wounded soldiers in each battalion?" ”
The generals were stunned when they heard this, obviously beyond their expectations, and they all looked at each other a few times: The emperor didn't ask about the rewards and punishments for military achievements, but asked those injured soldiers, what did this mean?
Seeing that they were all silent, Wang Jian asked again, "What, you have something to hide?" ”
Staff General Ding Lei is a big old man, and replied: "Back to the emperor, there are all those who can move... With Chen Niangniang's treatment, the remaining disabled waste will be cleaned up by each battalion and let them fend for themselves. "He was still self-righteous, and he didn't see anything wrong.
He didn't expect Wang Jian to suddenly be angry: "What, what are you?" They are all heroes who have left blood for me and for the Ming Dynasty, how dare you do this to them?! Wang Jian flew up and kicked him in the shoulder, kicking him out.
Wang Jian said angrily again: "Come on, drag him out and cut him down!" ”
Just when everyone thought that Ding Lei would definitely die, Ma Kuomei stood up and said, "Wait." She knew that what Ding Lei said was the consensus of the generals, and if she was convicted and killed, she was afraid that it would shake the morale of the army.
Ma said: "Your Majesty, what General Ding said is not unreasonable, since ancient times, anyone who is disabled on the battlefield, when he meets a benevolent general, like General Qi Jiguang, he will give more pensions and silver taels, and when he encounters a ruthless general, he will be dismissed on the spot, let them fend for themselves, and leaving them will only increase unnecessary burdens." She continued: "Your Majesty, if you favor them, you can also send more severance silver taels, even if Ding Shen is wrong, he will not be guilty of death." ”
