Chapter 553: Jackal, Tiger, Leopard, Dragon
Chapter 553: Jackals, Tigers, Leopards, and Dragons
This rainy night in Liyang City is by no means calm, if the killing that happened in the small courtyard of the Xie family in Yongan Alley was a wave, then there was a monstrous wave in Liyang City tonight. Compared with the blood waves in the defenders of Liyang City, the dozen or so people who died in Yong'an Lane were not worth mentioning at all. It's like the comparison between a creek and the sea, and the ratio of a firefly to the moon.
Xie Bonian took the fourth son of the Xie family and the slaughter team, holding an oil-paper umbrella and carrying a long hook and wearing a crescent-white robe, and came in a dashing manner, and died in a nest. One day after this rainy night, Xie Songhe, the head of the Xie family in Jiangnan, received a handwritten letter from Xie Yingdeng, which explained in detail what happened in Liyang that night, because unfortunately, the people of the Xie family caught up with the military accident when they entered Liyang, and the army of Yanyunzhai entered Liyang City, and Xie Bonian and others were guests in Wang Bodang's mansion and became unjust ghosts. Chickens and dogs are gone, not to mention a group of big living people in white clothes who look cool?
Xie Songhe knew that there must be something untrustworthy in this explanation, but he couldn't find any basis for doubt. The person sent by the Xie family to Liyang died cleanly, and all four of his sisters-in-law died without a place to be buried, which almost knocked him down like a hammer to the brain, and in an instant, the entire Xie family was shrouded in a haze. Xie Songhe fell, but the old lady, who had rarely asked about family affairs, stood up and stripped Xie Songhe's head of the family on the grounds that she was unwell. Unreasonable, unwarranted, her wrists were as hard as they were when she was younger.
Xie Songhe has no place to reason about this, and the previous head of the family, Xie Chong, has only taken two women in his life. After the original wife gave birth to Xie Songhe, she died, and after a few years, Xie Chong continued to marry the old lady Chen. The second Xie Lancheng, the third Xie Zhuyun, and the fourth Xie Bonian are all from the Chen family. She is Xie Songhe's stepmother, the old lady Chen's three biological sons are all dead, and the fourth child still died indirectly in the hands of Xie Songhe, and her grievances always come out.
Xie Yingdeng is the second Xie Lancheng's sister-in-law, that is, the grandson of the old lady Chen.
No one in the young generation of the Xie family can compare to Xie Yingdeng, so the old lady did not hesitate to designate Xie Yingdeng as the head of the Xie family, and then ordered all the business in the hands of the boss Xie Songhe to be taken back to the family, and several other elders who supported Xie Songhe were driven back to their hometown to guard a few acres of thin fields. The decisiveness of his methods is no less than that of men.
What happened in Liyang City on that rainy night, the old lady never asked. When Xie Yingdeng returned to Jiangnan to accept the head of the family, she wanted to say that she was interrupted by the old lady several times, she just looked at Xie Yingdeng and said lightly: "There is no right or wrong, good or evil in this world, what is alive is right and good, and what is dead can be good or evil, right or wrong, but...... It's all the living who have the final say. ”
That rainy night, when Zhang Liang took Xue Lun to the city gate first, Li Yue'e acted very carefully and gently to help Xie Yingdeng put on the armor, and the armor was deliberately loosened a few times, for fear of strangling him, so that the bleeding could be stopped. I have to say that Yanwang Li Xian's treatment of trauma is extremely beautiful, and Xie Yingdeng is also a tough guy. For such a long wound on the front chest and back, Li Xian had at least sixty or seventy stitches, and Xie Yingdeng just spat off the towel in his mouth at the last moment and turned around and asked a few words.
"How many stitches?"
"Sixty-Seven"
"But I counted your seventy-three stabs"
Li Xian's face did not change and replied seriously: "I haven't used it myself for a while, and I have some hands. ”
"Is there a way to stop the pain?"
"Yes"
"Why not?"
"I forgot"
After Xie Yingdeng heard these three words, he almost broke open the wound again. But Li Xian's next words made him suddenly feel infinitely emotional, and he said in his heart that the eldest husband should be like this.
"There was once a general surnamed Liu who was injured in the eye in a fierce battle. After the war, he found a famous Lang Zhong to see, and after careful examination, Lang Zhong said, "Your eyes have begun to rot, I must scrape off the carrion in your eyes, the pain of cutting your eyes with a knife is unbearable, I can use some anesthetic pain relief medicine for you." But the general surnamed Liu refused, and then lay on the bed and forced himself to let the rotten flesh in the eyes of the lieutenant general Lang be cut off one by one, and he was like you, Lang Zhong cut a knife and he counted it. ”
"Why didn't he use the medicine?"
Xie Yingdeng asked in surprise.
"Because any medicine that anesthetizes pain will have an effect on the brain. The general, surnamed Liu, said, I am a soldier, and I need a calm and clear mind to think about problems, so I must not use anesthetic drugs. I must be accountable to myself and to my soldiers! ”
"What a hero! Good man! ”
Xie Yingdeng excitedly exclaimed: "Excuse me, who is this general surnamed Liu, and which dynasty is it?" Why haven't I ever heard this allusion? ”
"It doesn't matter which dynasty it is, the important thing is that this allusion tells you a truth."
Li Xian said: "As a general, you must always be sober. As with the situation you are facing now, you should think calmly before making a decision. ”
When Li Xian walked out of the room, Xiao Di lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Anzhi, does the anesthetic you have configured really affect the brain?" ”
Li Xian said: "If you use it on your eyes, you will have some more or less." But if you use it on your back, it will definitely have no effect on your brain. ”
"Then why don't you give it to Xie Yingdeng?"
Li Xian sighed and said very seriously: "I said it...... I really forgot about ......."
……
……
Cheng Zhijie swirled into Liyang City with a light horse, and five thousand elite horsemen stepped on the bluestone slab road and sealed the four gates of the defender camp in Liyang City as fast as thunder. And at this time, in the vast sea, Xie Yingdeng and his own soldiers of hundreds of people have already controlled all the cronies of Wang Bodang in the camp, killing those who should be killed, and arresting those who should be arrested. Xue Lun worked extra hard in order to survive, and this night, there were no less than a dozen comrades who were cut off by him.
When the soldiers got up in a panic, it was not clear what had happened. Xie Yingdeng took the majestic sea, and when Xue Lun was killing people in the camp, Zhang Liang led his own soldiers to completely control the defenders on the city wall. He used the rebellion in the camp and the general Wang Bodang was leading the troops to quell the rebellion as an excuse, so that the defenders were not allowed to leave the city for half a step, and by dawn the camp had been controlled by Yanyun Jingcai, and the defenders on the city wall knew that they had been fooled. But at this time, Wang Bodang and hundreds of his cronies and generals were all killed, and Yan Yunjing rode back and forth on the streets, they had to give it a go except to accept their fate, in fact, in such a troubled world, soldiers rarely had absolute loyalty.
Let them fight to avenge Wang Bodang, this is an extremely unrealistic thing.
They followed Wang Bodang, and they were Wang Bodang's soldiers. Now that Yan Yunjing has ridden into the city, and King Yan has also entered the city, they actually have no resistance to changing someone to be the leader. Wagangzhai is gone, after the battle of Datasi, most of the routs in Wagangzhai surrendered to Yanyunzhai, they all know about this, but no one thought that they would have such a day.
Capture the thief and capture the king first, the eternal truth.
Wang Bodang died, and most of his generals also died, although there will still be a few fish that slip through the net, but at this time, no one has the heart, courage or courage to take the lead in making trouble. On the night of the rain in Liyang City, Li Xian, the king of Yan, created another miracle, which was only one of the many miracles in his life, but it was definitely shocking enough.
Two hundred black-robed military guards and three hundred long-shirted swordsmen, with only 500 people, dared to enter Liyang, an important town with 100,000 troops, and killed hundreds of Liyang officers in one breath in the dark of a rainy night, and then seized the military power and occupied the city. If such a victory is not something to be proud of, then I am afraid that there are really not many people who can be proud of it throughout the ages.
The allusion that Li Xian told Xie Yingdeng made Xie Yingdeng feel broken, and made a calm choice because of the allusion. What Li Xian did tonight will inevitably become an allusion in the future, and there will be an idiom derived from it, what should this idiom be, Li Xian naturally didn't have the heart to think about it, what he was thinking about now was how to digest the countless grains in Liyang City, as well as the 100,000 army.
Maybe the damned people died last night, the blood that should have been shed was shed, and there was no need for the sun to hide it anymore, and it came out from behind the clouds in the east early in the morning. Because it had only rained and the sun was extremely bright, the weather was a little humid since the morning, and the clothes were covered with a layer of moisture sticking to the body, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.
Early in the morning, the Liyang garrison began to register one by one, and each person who was willing to return to his hometown was given ten pieces of meat and a bag of polished rice, and as for how to transport it away, he would find his own way. Whether it is money or food, there is no shortage in Liyang City. The soldiers who are willing to stay are not absolutely able to stay, those soldiers who eat mixed rice and soldiers who are really thin and withered are naturally willing to stay and eat mixed rice, mixed with silver, but the soldiers who are visually unacceptable, how can Li Xian stay?
This is a very tedious and time-consuming process, 100,000 people, those who are willing to stay and those who are willing to leave must be registered, the streamlined soldiers have to be reassigned to the battalions, new middle and low-level officers must be selected, and generals and commanders must be selected.
Fortunately, when he came this time, Li Xian brought nearly 200 students from the second phase of the Martial Arts Academy who graduated at the beginning of the year, and these people will quickly integrate into the new team and become low-level officers above the team and below the captain.
When the soldiers who chose to leave walked out of the camp, they would stop for a while in front of the large grave outside the school grounds, fill in a handful of soil, and spit foam. The earth was held on the grave, and the spat was on a corpse tied to a stone on its knees in front of the grave. In the grave is Wang Bodang, and in front of the grave is Xue Lun. Li Xian didn't break his promise, Xue Lun was sealed as a general, and then directly beat him to death.
This month, all the departments are running at high speed, because Li Xian doesn't have time to consume too much time in Liyang, Li Shimin has already defeated Xue Ju and has surrendered more than 100,000 troops, Li Tang's strength has been further enhanced, and in the next step, Li Yuan will inevitably aim his knife at Wang Shichong in the eastern capital, with Wang Shichong's strength, it is really difficult to block the footsteps of the Li Tang Dynasty. Nowadays, there are few people who can argue with Li Yuan, Dou Jiande, Du Fuwei, and Li Xian.
As for Luo Manzi in Youzhou...... He has ambitions, but he has lost the ambition of his youth.
Xie Yingdeng and other Wagangzhai veterans chose to take refuge in Li Xian, the king of Yan, because they had to make a choice. And in the most magnificent mansion in the majestic city of Youzhou, Luo Yi, who was frowning and contemplating in the study, had a gray haired expression solemnly, with helplessness, sadness, and deep unwillingness in his eyes.
"Shixin"
He screamed, only to realize that his voice had become so hoarse that he could barely make a sound.
"It's time for us to make a choice, world...... It's too big, so big that my father can't hold it, so big that I ...... It's scary. Although our elite soldiers in Youzhou are the best in the world, they are now trapped in Zhuo County and cannot move an inch. The mountains in the west blocked us, Dou Jiande in the south blocked us, the Goguryeo barbarians in the east, and the steppe Turkic wolves in the north. The only thing we can go is to the south, but even if we defeat Dou Jiande, there is still a Li Xian, and a Du Fuwei......"
"For the Father"
Luo Yi sighed, looked at Luo Shixin and said: "I can't do it, I can't get enough heart, I can't see so far, and I can't climb so high, will you blame me?" ”
He had to give up climbing the highest mountain in the world, had to give up the dream he had been chasing for many years, the old male lion could no longer bite the hard bones, and he did not feel at ease that the young lion would face countless jackals, tigers and leopards alone, and perhaps, one or two of them were really ready to soar into the sky.
