Chapter 405: Half-Bodyed

"Shaoning"

"Ke Ran"

The two spoke at the same time after a moment of silence, and the mere shouting of each other's names seemed to exhaust all their courage, and silence ensued. The heavy friendship in Castle Peak Academy and the various contradictions, misunderstandings, or incomprehensions experienced afterwards, at this time, the two of them could no longer say even a word.

"What are you two doing in a daze? If you don't leave, you plan to bury these Tang people! Gu Hongxuan turned his head to look at the deck while helping Yang Zhong to run towards the side of the ship, but this time he found that these two living treasures were standing in place like fools, not speaking or acting, so anxious that he could only shout loudly.

Before Gu Hongxuan's words had completely landed, the ship carrying the powder of gunpowder let out a wail, and then the skyrocketing flames rushed towards the command ship. As soon as Gu Hongxuan and Yang Zhong jumped onto the ship next door, they were shocked to the ground by a violent vibration, and Xuan Shaoning and Yan Keran, who were closer to the burning ship, were even more miserable, this time bursting and rising countless sparks sprinkled on the deck of the command ship.

Yan Keran had his back to the burning ship, so he was shaken even more severely and fell headlong on the deck. Xuan Shaoning, who also fell, couldn't care about being embarrassed at this time, he stepped forward to help Yan Keran and ran in the direction of Yang Zhong. As the two of them ran, they heard a crackling sound behind them, and when the two of them jumped onto the temporarily safe ship, they looked back to see that the command ship had been ignited, and the tongue of fire spread to the command ship at a very fast speed.

Xuan Shaoning caught a glimpse of a gray-white shadow jumping from the command ship to the ship they were on, but at a glance, Xuan Shaoning could tell that this was Shen Ming. Yan Ke Ran also saw this scene, he suddenly remembered what he wanted to jump up despite the fire on the command ship, Xuan Shaoning and Gu Hongxuan desperately grabbed him, Gu Hongxuan couldn't stop shouting: "Don't you, what are you doing, can you stop making trouble!" ”

Yan Keran had already jumped on the side of the ship, and as long as he jumped up again, he could return to the command ship, but in the end he was stopped by Xuan Shaoning and Gu Hongxuan. Yan Keran still wanted to struggle, but after all, a person was not the opponent of the two, so he was still pulled down.

"Snow Ring! The snow ring is still on it! I can't leave her alone! ”

Hearing Yan Keran's cry, Xuan Shaoning recalled the few times he saw Xuehuan, he still remembered that it was a well-behaved and aura woman, who had always been Yun Xuan's personal palace maid, and he was able to have that period of time with Yun Xuan Many times were pulled by Xuehuan. But how did she end up here?

"Ke Ran, don't go, the whole ship is already on fire, you are jumping into the fire pit!"

Yan Keran shook off Xuan Shaoning's arm, stared at a pair of blood-red eyes, and said, "I promised Xuehuan that I would definitely take her back to the palace, I broke my promise, you made me break my promise!" ”

"Snow Ring.....

.. She" Xuan Shaoning began to understand what Yan Ke Ran meant, and he turned his head in disbelief to look at the steaming ship, at this time, both the snow ring and this ship had been reduced to a sea of fire.

In this area of ships, it was not only these two ships that were on fire, in fact, the ships around the perimeter of the fleet began to catch fire. These ships were loaded with gunpowder stone powder, and after Gu Hongxuan discovered the first one, he ordered people to search for ships one by one, and when they found gunpowder stone powder, they tried their best to ignite it.

Obviously, the officers and men of the Guangyuan Army did not disappoint Gu Hongxuan, most of them succeeded, and the small ships on the periphery of the whole circle began to catch fire, and the only gap left in the south was left. At this time, the wind began to blow in this river bay outside the capital, and the wind direction was northwesterly, and the wind helped the fire, and the strong wind blew the flames to more ships, and all the ships that were expected to escape were contaminated with tongues of fire.

When the time came, the wind became stronger and there was no sign of stopping or turning for a moment, and the sea of fire swallowed up all these fleets of the lower Tang Dynasty, what a magnificent scene, even those people in the city could see the fire outside the city as long as they stood on a high place, and the fiery red flames could dye the day red.

At the same time, in addition to the ships and the sailors of the Lower Tang Dynasty, they saw that the enemy was repulsed by themselves, and before they had time to celebrate, they found themselves surrounded by a sea of fire. At the moment of life and death, these sailors and soldiers finally understood that the original enemies were not defeated by themselves but calculated by them, and at this time the fire was about to spread and slipped away in advance. It was too late to wake up, the entire ship was surrounded by fire, and their chances of escaping were getting weaker and weaker.

Xuan Shaoning jumped into a small boat with Yang Zhong and the others and headed towards Huazhou City on the other side, which was what was in the previous plan. Yang Zhong had already arranged for a group of flat boats to wait not far from the fleet, originally these flat boats were very small and not easy to find, not to mention that with these huge fleets, small flat boats were even less worth mentioning. As soon as the fire began to spread, the soldiers waiting on the small boat immediately stepped forward to meet them.

Yang Zhong tried his best to prepare as many boats as possible, he was still worried that the boats would not be enough, after all, there were more than 10,000 soldiers in the Guangyuan Army, but when the boats were all in place, Yang Zhong, who was standing on the boats, found that his estimate of the battle situation was too optimistic. Twenty boats would have required many ferries back and forth, but now it seems that only one time is enough.

Xuan Shaoning stood on the boat and looked around, and found that there were really not many martial arts guards who could come back alive, and many more had already died in this battle. The feeling of indebtedness and uneasiness in his heart came to his heart again, he had seen life and death too many times, Xuan Shaoning originally thought that he could adapt, but in the end, when it really happened again in front of him, he realized that he really couldn't adapt, couldn't adapt, really couldn't adapt. These are all living human lives

, just disappeared in front of my eyes suddenly, how can anyone not care?

When he looked at Yan Keran, Xuan Shaoning thought that he would definitely experience the same as himself, but what he saw was not what he imagined. Yan Keran was also sad, but his sadness was more about Xuehuan's departure, and he didn't seem to pay too much attention to the death of those soldiers. If you want to say how to make this determination, look at the behavior of the two people:

Xuan Shaoning did not agree to retreat in a hurry, he wanted to stay as a posterior to wait for more martial arts guards to come here. Yan Keran did not agree with Xuan Shaoning's approach, it was too dangerous to continue to stay here at this time, firstly, it was possible that he would be discovered by the Lower Tang Naval Division and then there would be more battles, and secondly, he would also have to face the threat of fire.

"There were more than 10,000 people when we came, and now there are only so many people, there must be people rushing over here!"

"That's how war is, how the plan is agreed upon! They miss the time to reach their destination, and they have to bear the consequences! ”

"Ke Ran, you've changed!"

"It's not that I've changed, it's that you're obsessed! You'll only pay more casualties if you stay! ”

"I'll let you go first, I'll come to the palace, I'll wait for them!"

"Do you want to continue to be a hero? Your personal heroism should also look at the occasion! ”

"Don't quarrel!" Yang Zhong shouted: "It's better to retreat quickly according to the original plan!" ”

Yan Keran took one last look at Xuan Shaoning and jumped onto another flat boat, and these twenty flat boats immediately rowed towards the opposite bank. Xuan Shaoning's fists were clenched tightly, but he knew that he must not pour out his emotions now, and he definitely did not expect that one day he would stand on the opposite side with Yan Ke Ran and then have an argument.

Am I really doing this wrong? This is what the Master taught me, when the Master said that war is just a tool, and the tool can only play its greatest role in the hands of wise and decisive people, but there is also a crucial point in this, that is, the final bottom line of respect for human life.

One hand was clenched on the outside of Xuan Shaoning's fist, and when he turned around, he saw Ji Wenhan, the young man stared at Xuan Shaoning with his unique clear eyes, he didn't say anything, just stood beside Xuan Shaoning, and then made his own judgment with a firm look.

Xuan Shaoning understood, he relaxed at this moment, let go of his fist and held Ji Wenhan's hand with his backhand, and then threw one last glance at the sea of fire.

It was Duan Lang who greeted them in Huazhou City, and he also saw the sea of fire clearly, and when he saw Xuan Shaoning and them coming back alive, his heart could be regarded as completely letting go. Duan Lang was busy sending the people who came back into Huazhou City, he didn't expect to see Yan Keran, and after hesitating for a while, he finally decided to say hello, but all that responded to him was Yan Keran's cold face.
