Chapter 84: Death Leads to Death (I)
A sturdy figure of a sturdy man carved out of a mountain forest in the moonlight, and his seemingly overwhelmed body showed an astonishingly sharp posture, shuttling around the neighborhood like a dexterous cat.
Liao Ya leaned over, stabbed the rabbit that had been perching with the saber at his waist, and beckoned water with his hand by the lake, wanting to wash away the traces left by today's war.
The armor was already in tatters, Liao Ya simply took off the cuirass, and his whole body was already dyed with bright red, and the blood couldn't even distinguish between friend and foe. Several gray wolves howled in the moonlight, and kept sticking out their tongues at Liao Ya, and their dark blue eyes looked particularly strange in the dark night.
Grabbing the carcass of the rabbit, Liao Ya got up, cast a fierce look at the wolves, crossed the stream with an arrow, and slaughtered one of the wolves with the sword in his hand without fear.
Kill with one hit!
The wolf's blood splattered, and the remaining head wolves already sensed the danger when the head wolf was killed, and after several retreats, they scattered and fled.
"You're in luck!" Liao Ya snorted lightly, and then grabbed the corpse of the head wolf, and Moonlight walked back to the depths of the forest with a rabbit in one hand and a wolf in the other.
There was a slight firelight falling from the shadows of the trees, and just as Liao Ya walked deeper and deeper, several sharp weapons had already reflected the moonlight and pointed straight in front of Liao Ya.
Liao Ya smiled slightly, lowered her body and said, "It's me." ”
The swords were recovered one after another, and someone said angrily: "It's the general who is back!" ”
As far as the eye could see, a piece of land had been framed in the depths of the forest, and about five hundred soldiers had gathered here, the wolf and the rabbit had been driven on the bonfire, and Liao Ya, accompanied by two cronies, did not speak for a long time.
"General, you eat some." The soldiers cut off a rabbit leg and sent it to Liao Ya.
Liao Ya waved his hand, "Give it to the brothers, I'm not hungry." ”
"General, you better eat something! The brothers still have some dry food on them. ”
"It's an order! Divide the meat among the younger brothers, and the rest of the brothers will be aggrieved and eat some dry food! ”
Liao Ya took out a piece of dead dough cake and gnawed it, and the soldiers had no way to disobey the military order, and the wolf and rabbit were divided into a few young men, but most of them were prevaricated, and some people even learned from Liao Ya to nibble on the dough cake directly, without looking at the fragrant barbecue.
Yes! Today's battle of Xiaochi is just like what Liu Shaokun said above the city tower, defeated! Go down in flames.
Liao Ya still clearly remembers the appearance of the Zhiguo army when it attacked, the three-surnamed slave who once pierced his right abdomen, today actually led 80,000 Qinggou to take revenge. And as one of the generals who pretended to be too white thieves in the city to fight for life and death, he unfortunately lost contact with the Jiangnan army.
For example, Zhou Cake and Liao Ya also charged into battle, Zheng Ke, and Tan Jing were all separated from Jiangnan for a short time under Qingguo's fierce pursuit, but later they also met sooner or later by looking for it, only Liao Ya's part was quite miserable, not only suffered heavy casualties, but also did not find a place for the army to camp until dark.
In desperation, he had no choice but to hide in the deep mountains and old forests for the time being, at this time Liao Ya didn't even know what time it was, where he was, and he was going to that place tomorrow to find his lord.
"Wolf meat is not so tasty, it is a little sour!" Liao Ya came back to his senses, looked at a seventeen or eighteen-year-old soldier on the side, and said such a sentence for the first time.
The little soldier immediately wiped the grease off his mouth and said to Liao Ya: "General, this is already the best that the small one has ever eaten, the small one who has no strength eats meat here, and a big hero like the general can only eat dry food... Little heart..."
Liao Ya smiled, reached over and touched the little soldier's head with some guilt, and then beat it in disgust.
"Little cub! What you said by this, you haven't eaten better than wolf meat since you followed your lord? What else to say about the best to fight! ”
"It's time to fight... It's time to fight! The little soldier nodded again and again, "The little one should be beaten when he says this, the little one joined the army at the age of fifteen, and was later transferred by His Royal Highness the Prince Regent under the command of the lord, and he has never suffered from starvation ever since." ”
"The little father and mother died early, and a big brother worked for the lord with the little one, and the eldest brother died when the lord returned to Zetan County, and he died by the side of the little one..."
The little soldier choked up a little, and the soldiers sitting in a few circles put down the dry food they were still gnawing on, and their eyes all looked this way.
"When the eldest brother died, he told the younger one that he would kill a few more enemies in the future, and he would repay the kindness he owed to the lord!"
After the little soldier finished speaking, even a blood-type man like Liao Ya was a little unbearable, and gently held this child who was younger than himself in his arms as a comfort.
The night was a little late, but a group of soldiers did not mean to be sleepy, and the words of the little soldiers just now were heard in their ears, even if they were hungry at this time, they did not have the heart to gnaw on food.
"What's wrong with one by one? Lost the battle, didn't it? Morale is gone, isn't it? ”
Liao Ya's voice was a little hoarse, "What's the matter?" Can't afford to lose? After following the lord for so long, which time has the lord not saved the day? When did the lord make the brothers suffer? What if we only have 500 men left? Tomorrow I will go with Lao Tzu to find the lord, and go back in a beautiful way to tear the Qing dog to Lao Tzu! ”
Liao Ya pushed the little soldier aside, stood up and took off his shirt, "Look at it, this is Lao Tzu who was stabbed by that Wang Kai under Longquan City, I want Lao Tzu to say that Lao Tzu has no pain in his heart, and Lao Tzu with a big scar in the bowl should be regarded as the glory of Lao Tzu!" ”
"Look at that Wang Kai again, the eggs were shot by General Pan, compared to my Liao Ya's small injury, it can be regarded as eight lifetimes of mold!"
"You turtle grandsons, you have been a soldier for so many years, have you ever seen a general like the lord, what are you doing now that you are all depressed? Even if Lao Tzu Liao Ya looks for that Wang Kai desperately tomorrow, I won't blink! ”
"Cheer up Lao Tzu! Just survive tonight! We can continue to serve as soldiers! ”
Liao Ya roared, and the soldiers also raised their heads.
A soldier slammed the dead dough cake in his hand to the ground and said loudly
"The general is right! Lao Tzu has been a soldier for half his life and has not met the lord like this, Lao Tzu wants to cheer up, Lao Tzu will go to the lord tomorrow and continue to be a soldier for the lord! ”
A soldier with a broken arm blushed, "Lao Tzu's hand was broken when he was in Longquan, if he was going to be buried alive according to the meaning of those black-hearted generals, it was the lord who saved me, so why not if I return my life to the lord?" ”
A soldier slapped the severed-arm soldier on the head and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?" The lord needs you to die? The lord said that the life and death of no one in this world can be decided by others lightly, since the lord gave you life, you should kill a few more enemies and fight for the lord! ”
"Dude, you're right! Lao Tzu now thinks that Lao Tzu's previous soldiers were all in vain, and now Lao Tzu's heart is the lord alone, what bullshit Liu family, what bullshit regent is a group of people who treat us only for a while, only the lord..."
"The lord is the king of Lao Tzu for life!"
The soldiers were infected by Liao Ya one by one, and they swore loudly, and Liao Ya sat down, his bearded face was full of perseverance, although he felt that his group of people was a little fierce, but the heart of continuing to move forward and continue to find the Jiangnan army has never changed.
Perhaps, he Liao Ya only knows the past in his life!
From being brought to Yanyuzhuang by Chen Lin a few months ago, from disobedience to discipline to the soul of the army, he has experienced too many ups and downs along the way. Chen Peng, the good brother who was once released from prison with him, has been beheaded by Jiangnan, but he has no hatred in his heart.
Since you are a soldier, you have to obey military orders, even if it is death! From the time of Chen Peng's death, he scolded Jiangnan, Liao Ya began to look down on him in his heart, in his eyes, your dissatisfaction can be used to kill the enemy, you can use it to cultivate yourself, but you must not use it to insult your lord!
Perhaps, he Liao Ya is a tendon in his life.
Death is death, since people have come to this world, who can escape a dead word?
Liao Ya was born ugly, did not have an excellent family situation, did not have a confidante, and rarely even had to be respected. And now, he has become a lieutenant under the command of the general, it can be said that everything he has is given by Jiangnan, if there is no Jiangnan, he will still be waiting for death in the prison of Emperor Shun, who has not seen the light of day all day!
Liao Ya suddenly smiled, maybe he didn't have a high status in the army, and his strength was not outstanding, but he knew that he was deeply trusted by Jiangnan, so all this was enough.
Liao Ya is a martial artist and doesn't know what kind of soldier is the death of a confidant, but he knows in his heart that even if Jiangnan asks him to wipe his neck at this time, he just does not hesitate to put the sword on his neck.
"Then let's break out tomorrow! Even in the face of Qingguo's thousands of troops, if I Liao Ya blinked, I would be a grandson! ”
Liao Ya, who has returned to reality from thinking, is extremely relieved to look at the soldiers who are vowing to move forward, and at this moment he has affirmed that his five hundred or so people will nail their blood to the flag of Jiangnan, and they will not leave.
The campfire burns brighter and brighter, even though there is nothing on it.
The moon is getting brighter and brighter, even if you don't know where to go tomorrow.
The song also resounded in the mountains and forests.
This is the song that Jiangnan taught everyone when Liao Ya was still receiving special training from Jiangnan in Yanyuzhuang.
Every time Liao Ya sings it, she feels very intimate, because Jiang Nan said that this song is a song in a story called Prison Fengyun.
"There are several confidants in the world
How many friendships last forever
Today's parting is a handshake with you
Friendship is always in your heart and mine
Today there is a farewell
He will be able to gather together
Even if you can't meet in person
Always a friend
It is said that there are thousands of miles of mountains
Separate the two places
No face-to-face meeting is required
I know it in my heart
Friendship can't be changed
