Chapter 701: Covenant Battle Cucumber Heap
"The Great Khan really has a clever plan, now that the morale of the Qi army is low, is our side taking the opportunity to attack the city and take Shuozhou City in one fell swoop!"
All the Turkic generals were overjoyed, looking at the city of Shuozhou lit by fire in the night.
"No!" He shook his head and sneered: "If the city is attacked at this time, the Qi army will definitely transfer its hatred and anger to Ben Khan, and the same enemy will definitely fight to the death, how can we take the city, this move is very unwise!" ”
A determined smile flashed on his face and said in a deep voice: "Now we just need to wait and see what happens, Fu Fu's killing of his comrades will definitely cause an uproar in Shuozhou City and even the whole country, and when the morale of the army in the city is fluctuating, it is the best time for us to attack!" ”
"The Great Khan is wise and powerful, and the Qi people will definitely be defeated!"
In the flattering words of the Turkic generals, he laughed and ordered: "Withdraw the troops!" ”
The Turkic army receded like a tide and disappeared in the blink of an eye, but the atmosphere in Shuozhou City was extremely oppressive, and everyone's hearts were heavy, and there was a nameless flame burning among them.
Looking at the pair of dead eyes lying in a pool of blood outside the city, Fu Fu's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and the wordless pain and self-blame made his face slightly distorted, and his face was even more terrifyingly pale.
Don't say it's him, even the belligerent and murderous Cheng Yanjin was also very silent at this time, looking out of the city with a somewhat dull look.
To say that the life and death of 3,000 people is really not worth mentioning in this war involving four or five hundred thousand people, like a meat grinder, not even a fraction of the number of people in the city in this half month, but the impact and shock of the death of these 3,000 people to the Qi army is unprecedented.
No matter how many of these 3,000 people were spies of the enemy, after all, a considerable number of them were the people of Daqi, who eventually died at the hands of their own compatriots, and even many of the dead were old and weak women and children who were helpless.
Especially looking at the pair of innocent eyes, but they have long lost the color of life, Cheng Yanjin's back is also inexplicably chilled.
"What's the matter, all of them are depressed? Do you feel like a cruel and ruthless executioner, a heinous bastard? ”
At this moment, a loud voice suddenly sounded in the city, breaking the oppressive silence.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Wu Zhao, even Fu Fu and Cheng Yanjin, their eyes were still a little confused at first, but they were soon replaced by anger and hatred, and some of them were even slowly surrounded by Wu Zhao, full of murderous intent.
"What? Want to kill me and avenge them? Cleared your name for cruelty and cowardice? Wu Zhao had no fear on his face, but a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and the contempt in his words was undisguised.
"It's all you, the dog thief, who killed my father, I want to kill you and avenge my father!" Zhang Daniu finally stood up from the ground at this time, his eyes were blood-red, he was panting like a cow, and he rushed towards Wu Zhao with a roar.
"Humph!"
Wu Zhao's face flashed with a fierce color, and when the big bull got close, he once again struck out like lightning and kicked it to a stumble, but her upper body was straight and steady, looking extremely relaxed.
"Look at your appearance, where do you look like a battle-hardened soldier of the Great Qi Empire?" Wu Zhao's cold and sharp gaze swept over everyone like electricity, and his tone became more and more cold: "Your duty is to protect Shuozhou City, protect the Great Qi Empire, and protect the thousands of people behind you, for the sake of Great Qi, you can sacrifice everything, including your own lives!" Have you forgotten that General Fu Fu killed his own son a few days ago, isn't it because you still have the Great Qi Empire? ”
"Put away your pitiful weakness and pity! If Shuozhou City is broken, how many people will be buried in Shuozhou City under the iron hooves of the Turks, and how many people in Daqi will destroy their families?! ”
"These three thousand old and weak are just tools in the hands of the enemy, they can only be a burden to the country, useless! If it is worth sacrificing the lives of 3,000 or even more soldiers for them? Without them, you may be sad, but Daqi is still stable, but without you, who will protect the rivers and mountains of Daqi, and where is the hope of the people?! ”
Wu Zhao's words were like morning bells and dusk drums, striking heavily on everyone's hearts, moving them. Although the tragedy of the bloody forest in front of them was a little cruel, as Wu Zhao said, for the sake of the rivers and mountains of Daqi and for the sake of more people, their sacrifice was inevitable and worthwhile. This is war, violent, bloody and brutal, this is reality, an unchangeable reality.
"Put away your sorrows, put away your mercy, your enemies are the Turks, and only by completely defeating them can our country be stable, and today's tragedy will not happen again!"
"Swear to destroy the Turks, until death!"
Cheng Yanjin felt a surge of blood in his head, his heart was agitated, and he couldn't help but roar with his eyes, and the rolling sound rang through the sky like thunder.
"Swear to destroy the Turks, until death!"
The defenders of the city were also infected by him, and they raised their arms and shouted, hoarsely, as if they wanted to vent all the negative emotions in their hearts, such as anger and resentment, sadness and self-blame.
Feeling the gradually rising momentum of the soldiers in the city, Fu Fu's mood couldn't help but slowly calm down, although a touch of grief and heaviness flashed in his eyes from time to time, but his face finally returned to calm.
The shouts were louder than loud, like bursts of thunder, and they endured for a long time.
And in this tsunami-like roar of the mountains, Wu Zhao quietly left with the disciples of the Moon Worship Sect, leaving Zhang Yanjun alone to stand silently, out of place with the angry soldiers around him, only Fu Fu accidentally noticed the gratification in his eyes, the guilt and sentimentality mixed with relief.
……
"Why? Dad, why did you die so miserably, why? ”
Looking at the cold tablet in front of him, Zhang Daniu kept shouting in his heart, the sturdy man was now in tears, his eyes were glowing red, and his fists were faintly white because of the hard clenching.
"Why didn't His Highness the Crown Prince kill that damn bastard, not even with any punishment? Why? Could it be that if I was born and died for his Gao lineage, it was only worth five hundred taels of silver? ”
"Is your heart full of resentment? Do you want to avenge your father? ”
The cold voice that suddenly sounded behind him suddenly startled Zhang Daniu, he quickly turned around and looked around, but the tent was empty, and there was no one in sight, he had no reason in his heart, and shouted: "Who is it?" Come out! ”
"Filial piety comes first, your father died at the hands of a traitor, you don't want to take revenge, but you are crying here, how can you be worthy of the father who gave birth to you and raised you?!"
"Who the hell are you? What kind of ability is pretending to be a ghost, there is a kind of coming out to speak! Zhang Daniu suddenly pulled his knife out of its sheath and looked around vigilantly, but he didn't notice a trace of abnormality.
"What does the country of Great Qi have to do with you? What does it matter to you whether others live or die? You were born and died for the Gao family, in exchange for the current tragedy! Happy is just a complete hypocrite, how can he care about the life or death of you pariahs, all he cares about is his power, his status! ”
"Since Gao Huan, who of the Gao clan is not a despicable, shameless, tyrannical and greedy faint king, you must not be deceived by happy and hypocritical faces! Why did Fu Fu kill his relatives in righteousness? Where is he for the life and death of you, just to show his loyalty to the glad, just for his rights! ”
"In their eyes, your father, you are just a pig and a dog, you can be abandoned at any time, and they will never have the slightest pity and guilt! Wake up, poor lamb! ”
Zhang Da Niu suddenly calmed down, and his face became particularly ugly. The stranger's words pierced his heart deeply, and it also made him feel a strong hatred and anger in his heart.
Looking back on the past 20 years, which of the previous emperors of the Northern Qi Dynasty was not a tyrannical, cruel and ruthless villain, and he was used to seeing the ugly faces and dirty hearts of those in power in Shuozhou. Could it be that joy would be an exception? No, it won't.
Everything is fake, everything he does is just to assert his power.
Once the idea is born in my mind, it grows like a weed and lingers. Hatred and anger began to eat away at his sanity, his eyes reddening and his snort thicker.
"Tell me, what should I do? What can I do? I want revenge, I want revenge! Tell me! ”
"The people who can help you are outside the city, and you need to control everything yourself!"
After saying this, the person who didn't know where to hide disappeared, and no matter how Zhang Daniu shouted, he didn't appear again.
……
The Turkic tent, the butter candle is burning vigorously, and the huge tent is reflected like daylight. There are all the brave and warlike generals in the Turkic army, and they are all good men who block a hundred.
He sat on the top of the bowl Khan, closed the exquisite and gorgeous war book in his hand, his face was grim, he swept the people in the tent majestically, and asked in a deep voice: "Everyone, the prince of Qi is happy that the prince of Qiben Khan will fight a decisive battle in the northeast of Shuozhou in the cucumber pile three days later, I don't know what you think?" ”
As soon as the Khan's voice fell, one of them immediately spoke; "Great Khan, the Qi people have been unable to shrink back a few days ago, and they dare not fight, but this time they took the initiative to invite the battle, there must be fraud in it, we have to guard against it!"
"Yes, Great Khan, the Qi people have always been treacherous, and there must be a conspiracy in between!" Many people in the account chimed in.
"What you said is not unreasonable, but since the Qi people have issued a war letter, if Ben Khan refuses to go, won't it weaken my Turkic momentum?" He raised his eyebrows lightly, and said loudly: "Happy Xiao'er is not ashamed, he actually compares my Turkic Khanate to a small country like Rouran, and wants to emulate Gao Huan, the ancestor of Qi State, to annihilate my Turkic peerless iron cavalry in one fell swoop, you say, can Ben Khan make him so rampant?" ”
"Can't!"
Everyone roared in unison, and all of them were filled with righteous indignation, and it was very impossible to immediately compete with joy. However, there was still a rational and worried voice in the crowd: "What the Great Khan said is reasonable, but it is wise and deceitful, and we still have to engage in the war, won't it be a failure?" ”
He smiled with confidence, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes: "Ben Khan has a plan in his heart, you don't need to panic." ”
