Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Last Chance to Survive
Chapter Seventy-Eight: Last Chance to Live (Page 1/1)
Seeing Sun Kewang sitting still, Li Dingguo knew that he was duplicitous, but he continued to snort coldly: "If Brother Sun thinks that I want to be unfavorable to you, then it is better to tell my father-in-law what I just said and let him execute me." ”
Sun Kewang saw that his demeanor was natural, not like he was setting himself up, so he had to smile unnaturally before saying: "Then what do you have to say to me, although I, Sun Kewang, have always regarded you as a competitor, but I am not the kind of person who informs behind my back." Besides, at this time, the wind and rain are shaking, the building will fall, and there is only a dead end for that seat to sit on, so why should I do anything more. ”
Li Dingguo saw him say this, his face softened a little, and then he said: "Big brother, I came to you today, but I don't want to be buried with this great western country." You are all family and family people, and now you know the situation better than me, and feel it more deeply, and you have already moved like a dangerous egg. Do you want to watch our family die like this? ”
Li Dingguo knew that although Sun Kewang was ambitious, he also attached great importance to his family, so he was impressed from this point.
Sun Kewang really had a painful look on his face, picked up the wine jug in front of him and gave himself a glass of wine and drank it fiercely, then said bitterly: "The official army is powerful, and the artillery fire is extremely fierce, we will arrive at the city in a few days, we are definitely not opponents." In the face of the fierce artillery and sharp and accurate muskets of the officers and soldiers, our cavalry was no match at all. The destruction of the Great Western Kingdom is imminent, but what can I do? If I don't go, it doesn't matter if I die, it will also affect my family. I went, and there was still a glimmer of hope. If you still treat me as a brother, take care of my family after I die, and I will be grateful under the Nine Springs. ”
After speaking, he poured another glass of wine and drank it all, looking disheartened.
Li Dingguo sneered and said: "I didn't expect that your dignified Sun Kewang, General Sun, who is feared by everyone, would be so cowardly." He wants to die, but he entrusts his wife and children to others. I originally thought that you were still the same Sun Kewang who was not afraid of being alone to block hundreds of officers and soldiers, but unexpectedly it was just a cowardice to give up on yourself and put your hopes on others. In that case, you might as well leave. No one can predict what will happen to your wife and children after you die. ”
Sun Kewang was furious, Huo Ran got up, raised his fist and wanted to smash it at Li Dingguo, but stopped in the air again.
He saw that Li Dingguo's eyes were contemptuous and mocking, but he also felt his angry mood, and finally weakly put down his fist, sat down heavily, poured another glass of wine and drank it fiercely, and then muttered: "If I don't do this, what else can I do?" ”
Li Dingguo saw that his emotions had calmed down, so he said in a low voice: "Brother Sun, now that we have reached the point of life and death, we must think about ourselves, and we must not sit still." ”
Sun Kewang realized something, and suddenly raised his head to look at Li Dingguo.
Li Dingguo's eyes were firm, and he nodded to him and continued: "Over the years, we have done enough for our father-in-law, and we have enough to repay his kindness. You should know very well in your heart that there is no future for the Great Western Country. The father-in-law has been killing people like crazy all these years, which has caused the people in the world to boil, whether it is the gentry or the nobles, there is no one who does not resent him. There is absolutely no hope for such a large western country. Even if the officials and soldiers don't come, sooner or later they will be overthrown. The stepfather is now crazy and can't listen to the opinions of others, and there is absolutely no possibility of change. Now, we have to plan for ourselves, or we won't have a chance. ”
Sun Kewang's mind calmed down a lot, and Li Dingguo's words began to be listened to, and he nodded and said heavily: "You are right, there is no hope for the Great Western Kingdom, and sooner or later it will perish." Do you mean that we will leave our father-in-law and leave Shuzhou with our men and horses? ”
Li Dingguo nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Today is different from the past. If we had left our father-in-law a year ago, we would still have been able to do something, because at that time the world was still in a state of pattern, and if we wanted to make a career, there were still great opportunities. But now, the imperial court has re-stabilized, and the world has basically been calmed down except for our Shuzhou. If you go to break through at this time, you will inevitably become the target of the court alone, and you will have no power to resist at that time. ”
Regarding Li Dingguo's words, Sun Kewang thought so, nodded and asked, "Then what good ideas do you have?" Since you have come to me to talk about this, you must already have a definite idea, so it is better to go out and discuss it together. ”
Li Dingguo said: "I was about to discuss with my eldest brother." Our last chance to survive this time is the current imperial army. If we can cooperate with the imperial court, we will not only be able to survive, but even keep our rich life. ”
Sun Kewang's body shook, and after being stunned for a moment, he hesitated in a low voice: "You mean the opposite?" ”
Li Dingguo nodded firmly and said: "Yes, it's the opposite, for today's plan, it's only the opposite." Otherwise, we will follow our father-in-law to bury this hopeless Great Western Kingdom. ”
Looking at Li Dingguo's firm affection, Sun Kewang's thoughts in his heart gradually became clear, and it didn't take long to make up his mind: "It seems that it can only be like this." If the righteous father is unkind, we can only be unjust. What are your specific plans? ”
Li Dingguo approached him, and after saying something in his ear, Sun Kewang's heart trembled, and after thinking about it carefully, this was indeed the best opportunity.
After the two agreed on the details in detail, they made all the plans, and Sun Kewang left.
After returning to his own mansion, Sun Kewang secretly had several confidant generals, and after making such arrangements, these people quickly dispersed.
Then he called his wife and gave him a careful command. Finally, he called the housekeeper, and after making some arrangements, he took a few cronies and rode out of Jinguan City towards Mianyang City.
Jinguancheng is located in a large basin, surrounded by a large plain area outside the city, which can be said to be the richest place in Shuzhou, so Jinguancheng can become the political, economic and cultural center of Shuzhou, and the population is also the most dense place in Shuzhou.
In its heyday, the population of the vicinity of Jinguan City was nearly one million. Now, under the years of war and Zhang Xianzhong's massacre, there is not one in ten, many fertile fields have been reduced to wilderness, the roadside is barren grass, and the exposed white bones can be seen everywhere.
The mass death of human beings has led to the rampant of wild beasts, and many wild beasts that were not afraid to appear in human settlements in the past are walking on the streets in a grand manner, and the most harmful is the tiger.
At one point, more than 100 tigers roamed the streets at the same time, looking for living people to eat, resulting in an even more sparse population. The entire Shuzhou is as terrible as hell on earth.
From Jinguan City to Mianyang City, there is a distance of about two hundred miles. Because it is a plain area, the official road is flat.
It was already afternoon when Sun Kewang and his party left the city, and it was gradually darkening after they left.
Suddenly, a gust of wind rose, and the horses under the crotches of the group began to neigh and tremble, refusing to move forward.
