"Selfless? Hum! Ask yourself, can you convince yourself with what you just said? Wang Dongri still said coldly, "If you really have no selfish intentions, you should immediately attack Qing Lu at that time!" Instead of hiding in the mountain col that is only more than ten miles away from Qingyuan County, he hid for two whole days! If you really have no selfish intentions, General Huo Shilian would not have died in battle, and those righteous soldiers would not have given their lives in vain! And the 3,000 people I brought out won't be left in the early 1,000s! That's right, I'll admit that your method is really great and wonderful for you! At that time, we had been fighting with Li Chengdong for a long time and suffered heavy losses, and Li Chengdong's troops were already exhausted. Li Chengdong's troops, who have become a tired army, can no longer pose a big threat to your troops, which is conducive to you leading your army to easily annihilate the enemy and make meritorious contributions! And all the soldiers of the righteous army and I, Wang Dongri, will be grateful to you for your so-called life-saving grace without knowing it! Unexpectedly, God still let me know the details! ”

"Brother Asahi, listen to me......"

"You don't have to say anything! Now that you've admitted it, there's not much to say! Wang Dongri interrupted Pang Yue's defense, "I think that at the beginning, you and I served under Huang Shuai, fought side by side, and killed enemies for the country. At that time www.biquge.info, you were still full of loyalty, and you were a good man who was admired by my king. But who knows, in just two years, your mind will be transformed to this point! Now, in your eyes, only personal fame and fortune are left, no matter what righteousness or the lives of friendly soldiers, it is just a stepping stone for you to chase fame and fortune! I know that too. If you can do such a thing, you must have a thousand reasons in your heart to justify yourself! But I don't understand these reasons, and I don't want to inquire about them. Of course. Your current achievements and status are by no means comparable to those of the beginning, and the saints of the other day will surely be even greater, and the future will be bright and limitless! And I, Wang, is a general of the defeated army, with mediocre intelligence and scheming that is far inferior to you, so naturally I can't stop you from doing what you want to do. But thinking of the friendship of the past, I still want to give you a word of advice. Before doing something like this in the future, think of the loyal servants who destroyed their families and fought against the Tartars, and the innocent people who died under the butcher's knives of the Tartars and who are still struggling under the iron hooves of the Tartars! Now the national crisis is at the head and the enemy is at present. Even if you really have any selfish intentions, why can't you hold back and rush it? What's more, people live for a lifetime, but they are in a hurry for decades. Fame and fortune are flourishing again. I can't enjoy it for long! If you do too much bad work, can you feel at ease yourself? ”

Since being interrupted by Wang Dongri for the second time, Pang Yue no longer has any intention of defending himself, but just silently listens to Wang Dongri spit out what he thinks in his heart.

After Wang Dongri finished speaking, Pang Yue originally wanted to refute it at the end, such as "If I have selfish intentions, why don't I ......" Yunyun, but when the words came to his lips, he finally gave up. Wang Dongri is a cheerful person, yes. But at the same time, he is also a person who sticks to his principles, once he recognizes something. It is very difficult for others to change their minds with words alone.

"Brother Xu, since you insist on thinking so, then I won't force it." Pang Yue, who had completely given up his defense, sighed lightly, "I have already said that I admit that I am guilty of the righteous army and your soldiers in Shaozhou Town in the battle of Qingyuan. But as for whether I have selfish intentions or not, and what kind of person I am, I don't want to say more. The so-called road knows the horsepower and sees the hearts of the people for a long time, and one day, Brother Xu, you will see it clearly. Let Heaven bear witness. In addition, your reminder and admonition to me is exactly what I have in mind, and I will always remember it and never forget it. ”

"It's really unashamed!" A sneer shook out of Wang Dongri's face again, "Heaven is indeed open-eyed, but Heaven will never favor those who hurt Heaven and reason and do all the evil things!" I hope you don't end up being one of these people! That's it, I didn't have anything else to do before, now that I've got your clarification, then I'll also leave, there are a lot of affairs in the army, and I can't delay! ”

"Okay, then I'll send Brother Xu!" Pang Yue nodded, stood up and said. He knew that things had come to this point, and there was not much point in holding them back.

"Please stay! Wang Dongri didn't dare to work hard for Uncle Wu! After Wang Dongri finished speaking categorically, he walked towards the door without looking back.

Hearing the three words "Dingwubo" coming out of Wang Dongri's mouth, Pang Yue was stunned for a moment, but he still stopped, and silently watched Wang Dongri leave with a sense of determination. At this moment, the scenes of the past flashed in his mind like a marquee: on the night of the temporary rest in the Taiping Mansion City, he and Wang Dongri discussed the current situation in the city; After Huang Degong was killed, the two broke through from Hagigang together; On the way to Hangzhou, the two worked together and carefully set up an ambush to annihilate the Qing army that was pursuing; When they arrived in Hangzhou, the two participated in supporting Zhu Yujian, the then king of Tang, as the prisoner of the country, and escorted the king of Tang to Fuzhou together......

After a while, Shi Youliang suddenly walked in, and fell to his knees without saying a word, interrupting Pang Yue's thoughts. Wei Yuan and the others outside the door chased them to the house, and when they saw the scene of Shi Youliang kneeling, they didn't know what to do for a while.

"Let's all get out." Pang Yue instructed Wei Yuan, and then stepped forward to help Shi Youliang, "Zhou Ming, what's wrong with you?" If you have something to say, it seems that there is nothing in the world that scares you, right? ”

Shi Youliang frowned, his voice was much lower than usual, and he also carried obvious self-blame: "Dashuai, it's all because I have no brains and no mouth, which let Lord Wang know the details of the battle of Qingyuan." I leaked such an important matter, so please punish the marshal heavily! Even if you cut off my head now, my old stone has nothing to say! ”

Pang Yue shook his head slightly and said, "It's not that serious." There are not a few people who know about this, and even if you don't say it, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be leaked in the future. I know what Lord Wang is, and even if he knows about such things, he will only change his personal opinion of me, and he will not tell outsiders. Take 10,000 steps back, and even if more people know, we have nothing to worry about. As long as we have a clear conscience in our own hearts. If you don't do these things for some dirty and dirty purpose, you don't have to care about the rumors. Therefore, I will not punish you. You don't have to blame yourself too much, just pay attention to it later. ”

"Then thank you, Dashuai! If I do this kind of bastard again in the future, I don't need to do it, I'll hit my neck with a knife by myself! Shi Youliang said apologetically.

"It's not necessary! People inevitably have times when they leak their mouths. Just learn this lesson later. Pang Yue said, "In addition, according to Lord Wang's temper, it is estimated that he will let the officers and soldiers of our town who went to help Shaozhou Town train recruits back tomorrow at the latest." It's up to you to take care of it. When it's time to leave, explain everything that should be explained to the friendly forces in Shaozhou Town. They have been replenished with a lot of new recruits, and I am afraid that the difficulties encountered in the early stages of training will not be less. ”

"Yes, sir. I'll arrange it right away! There's no going to go wrong this time! ”

"That's good!"

After Shi Youliang left, Pang Yue still had an obvious sense of loss in his heart. He didn't expect that Wang Dongri would know about his early arrival outside Qingyuan City, and it also caused such a strong reaction from him. The two who once had a fateful friendship actually had a temporary estrangement that was difficult to eliminate just because of this incident, which really made Pang Yue feel a lot of emotion. Anyway. The loss of such an upright and loyal friend. is also his first friend after coming to this era, Pang Yue can't help but feel a strong sense of loss in his heart, and he doesn't know if there is a possibility for the two to shake hands and make peace in the future.

However, on the other hand, although Pang Yue admired Wang Dongri's integrity, and admitted that he was sorry for the righteous army and the officers and soldiers of Shaozhou Town who died under the city of Qingyuan, he did not regret it. If you let him choose again now, even if his heart is entangled. He will still choose to lurk outside the city and wait for the right moment before attacking. Everything is to kill the enemy more effectively, as for Wang Dongri's incomprehension and hostility. He could only put it aside for the time being.

……

As Pang Yue expected, the next day, Wang Dongri asked all the officers and soldiers of Huguang Town who had gone to assist him in training new recruits to go back. It's just that in front of these grassroots officers and soldiers in Huguang Town, Wang Dongri behaved quite politely, invited them to drink a meal before leaving, and asked them to thank Pang Yue on his behalf. Therefore, the estrangement between Pang Yue and Wang Dongri was not known to most officers and soldiers.

After learning about Wang Dongri's approach, Pang Yue didn't feel anything strange, since Wang Dongri had already had a prejudice against himself, it was natural to refuse his help, so he didn't say anything, and soon put his energy on the rest and training of the army, just waiting for the opportunity to mend the relationship between the two in the future.

……

Two days later, in the afternoon, Pang Yue returned from inspecting the training of the Fubo battalion outside the city as usual, and was about to go to the north school to see the training of the rest of the battalions, but unexpectedly encountered a little accident on the way.

A middle-aged man in ragged clothes knelt down on the road where Pang Yue and the others were going, crying loudly, and his voice was very sad, causing more and more people around him to watch.

"Go and ask the weeping people, what is the matter? What are the grievances? After hearing the movement ahead, Pang Yue opened the curtain of the carriage and commanded Chao Weiyuan.

"Yes!"

The noise outside the car became more and more intense, and a large number of curious people rushed to the middle of the street, blocking most of the way for pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages in a short time. Seeing this situation, a group of officials patrolling nearby was about to come forward to disperse the crowd, but when they saw the banner of Pang Yue, the commander of Huguang, on the carriage parked in the middle, they did not dare to continue to move forward, but just stood in place and observed the development of the situation.

"Don't go near the carriage!" "Hurry back!" …… The soldiers on the horses formed a cordon around the carriage, and kept shouting at the people who tried to get closer. Zhou Tianzheng, deputy of the pro-soldier team, and Jin Yong, the general manager of the Bai, were firmly guarding both sides of the door curtain of the carriage, observing the surrounding situation with a high degree of vigilance.

At this time, Pang Yue in the car also felt a little confused. How is it that the people stop their chariots? If you have a grievance, you should go to the government, right? Could it be that the government did not accept his appeal, so that he fell ill and rushed to the doctor? Or is it that what he wants to sue is the officers and soldiers of Huguang Town?

It didn't take long for Wei Yuan to return to the carriage and report: "Dashuai, the matter has been inquired clearly. The man cried and complained that several of our soldiers in Huguang Town had abused his daughter and beat him severely. ”

"How could this happen? Which battalion is it? As soon as he heard that such a vicious incident had occurred, Pang Yue couldn't help frowning.

"My subordinates don't believe it either!" Wei Yuan said, "However, he is an ordinary person, how can he tell which battalion it is?" It's just that I saw those few evil soldiers finally enter the camp of our town. ”

"I'll take a look!" After Pang Yue finished speaking, he prepared to get out of the carriage.

"Dashuai, don't go down yet, right now there are all kinds of people on the street, so I'd better be careful." Wei Yuan persuaded, "Why don't I wait and bring that person back to the Dusi Yamen first, and then ask in detail?" ”

Pang Yue thought for a while and said, "Don't get in the way, I'll ask him a few words in front of everyone, it won't take much effort." He was taken away without asking clearly, but instead left a handle for those with ulterior motives. ”

Seeing that Pang Yue had made up his mind, Wei Yuan was no longer easy to dissuade, so he had to arrange for people to firmly protect Pang Yue in the middle.

After walking over, Pang Yue saw that the middle-aged man who stopped the car was still lying on the street crying bitterly, and was about to step forward to help him up, but something unexpected happened.

The middle-aged man, who was still grief-stricken just now, suddenly jumped up like a cheetah, took out a short knife from his arms and pounced on Pang Yue.

"Take it for me!" Wei Yuan, who had been on guard, let out a loud shout, stepped forward with the two personal soldiers around him, and pressed the assassin disguised as the bitter master to the ground.

Seeing that there was actually an assassin attacking, the surrounding people were in an uproar, let out bursts of exclamation, and retreated.

Sure enough, it's an assassin! As soon as Pang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, he faintly felt a potentially dangerous aura coming from the front right. The long-term sense of alertness made him subconsciously tilt his head.

However, it was still a little late, and with an inaudible muffled sound, Pang Yue suddenly felt a cold feeling from his right neck, and the strength of his whole body seemed to be drained at that moment.

"Dashuai!" "Dashuai!" ……

Hearing the call of his subordinates in a daze, Pang Yue didn't have time to say a word, and the consciousness in his mind was overwhelmed by endless darkness. (To be continued.) )
