Chapter 39: Someone Has to Die
Hearing Li Tian's unprovoked roar, Qian Mingguang was not so surprised, because not long ago, he had vaguely guessed that the evil young man was Li Tian himself, but he was not too sure.
The reason is very simple, Li Tian just mentioned the word Li Taichang in the story he told, Sun Ming once told him that Li Tian's father was one of the nine kings of the dynasty, who was too often, Lord Li Hongbin.
But Rao is like this, Qian Mingguang still didn't dare to confirm it, and it wasn't until Li Tian's unprovoked roar just now that he was completely sure that Li Tian was the evil young man in his mouth.
Although Qian Mingguang was not much surprised on the surface, he was already shocked to the point of no further magnitude in his heart, and he couldn't imagine that General Li in front of him was actually the evil young man in his story who should be executed by Ling Chi.
He and the evil young man are completely two different people.
One is a puddle of mud with dog shit mixed in.
The other is the essence of jade.
Between the two, the difference between heaven and earth.
After the scream, Li Tian regained his composure, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, sat cross-legged on the hillside, and said slowly with his back to Qian Mingguang.
"You have probably guessed who that evil young man is, yes, it's me, I'm the evil young man of Chang'an who is full of evil and has killed countless lives, Li Tian."
Qian Mingguang was silent, not knowing what to say.
Li Tian turned his head, looked at him and smiled, "Do you know why I want to tell you about my past?" ”
Qian Mingguang didn't answer this question, but asked, "General, is this the reason why you are so good to me?" ”
Li Tian nodded, his eyes redirected to the twilight sky like burning clouds in the distance, "Yes, when I saw you being knocked down by Zhou Xing's punch after punch, but standing up stubbornly again and again, I suddenly found that you are very similar to me before, we all have a stubbornness, and I also understand that as long as people like us can rise in difficulties, they will definitely be able to make great achievements in the future, so I want to cultivate you, I want to see what kind of height you will reach in the future." ”
Li Tian paused for a moment in his voice and continued: "But I won't be like Zhao Dabeard, he only taught me the skills of fighting with the enemy, but he never taught me the art of war, nor did he tell me the tactics of the Huns, I won't do this, I will teach you everything I know and know, in this way, you will be in the future"
Speaking of this, Li Tian shook his head in distress, "Hehe, there is nothing to do, you have almost taken the detour yourself." ”
Qian Mingguang was silent again, and after a long while, he spoke again: "General, you want to tell me that my fear of the Huns is not a shameful or damned thing, is it?" ”
Li Tian didn't answer him, but continued to tell the second half of the story.
"After Qicheng was broken, I hid in the corpse pile alone for two days and three nights, in those two days and three nights, I only crawled out of the corpse pile when the Huns left, after seeing the corpses all over the city, I lay back again, I didn't move for two days and three nights, just kept lying in the corpse pile, at that time I desperately hoped that I was also one of these corpses beside me, obviously it was something that could be solved by just moving my fingers, but I still didn't have the courage to do it at that time."
"Two days and three nights later, the reinforcements arrived, and when the army was cleaning up the battlefield, I was naturally found lying in the pile of corpses, so I was taken back to Chang'an as the only survivor in Qicheng, hehe, the only survivor."
"After returning to Chang'an, my father seems to have forgiven me, at home he ordered someone to make a large table of food, and said to let me rest at home for a few more days, and when the rest is good, he will transfer me to the Yulin Army, I will never have to go to the cruel frontier in the future, during the banquet, my father poured me wine with tears in laughter, for me to suppress the shock, maybe his original intention was to let me go to the battlefield to experience a little, but he did not expect that I would"
Li Tian smiled bitterly, "But I disappointed my father again, and I can't help but disappoint him, from the moment I survived from Qicheng, it was destined that I would not be able to spend my life so smoothly." ”
"I carry 52,000 lives on my body, so I will sacrifice them with the heads of 52,000 Huns."
Li Tian's eyes burst out with wisps of murderous aura, "On the night of returning home, I went to the Han military headquarters alone, and I asked them to send me to the front line, to the place where I could best fight with the Huns, and in the early morning of the second day, without telling my father, I took the documents of the military headquarters alone and returned to Yanmen County." ”
"In three years, I fought from Yanmen County to Dai County, and from Dai County to Dingxiang, from Dingxiang to Shang County, in the past three years, every border pass in the Han Dynasty, every important town fortress, I have been there, the most dangerous time, the Huns have broken the city, but I also led the soldiers in the city to fight with them in the street, until they are completely driven out of the city."
"In the past three years, for me, I may have seen the most blood, and the most I have done is to cut off the heads of the Huns, and I can't remember how many Huns I have killed over the years, but I only know one thing, if the Huns are not destroyed, the sins on my body will not dissipate one day."
"In the past three years, I have exchanged hundreds of Hun heads for the position of Zhenjun Zhonglang General, I have studied hard and practiced hard, and I have mastered all the military books in this world, and I don't want to make any mistakes in the art of war, because those mistakes are fatal, and I can't bear the consequences."
Li Tian breathed a long sigh of relief, "Now you know why I want to tell you these stories, I want you to understand a fact, since things have happened, there is no way to change them, all you can do is to take up arms and avenge Sun Ming, just like me now." ”
Li Tian bowed his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Since I can't change everything in Qicheng before, then all I can change is myself, make myself strong enough, and make those Huns pay for everything they have done!" ”
Sun Ming's body had been burned by the flames, leaving only the ashes and firewood residues in its place.
Qian Mingguang looked at Sun Ming's ashes, and then looked at Li Tian, who was sitting cross-legged in front of him, he trembled and reached out to hold the ring knife on his waist, the general is right, I can't change the fact that Brother Sun has died in battle, then let me change myself, let me avenge him, let
Thinking of this, Qian Mingguang's eyes once again couldn't stop flowing tears, he clenched the handle of the knife in his hand, and said in a trembling tone.
"But General, Brother Sun, he's dead, I"
Li Tian understood that Qian Mingguang was just saddening Sun Ming's departure now, after all, seeing his relatives leave, no one could come out of the shadows in such a short time, he was just sad about Sun Ming's death in battle.
Using his future to repay the mistakes he made today, Qian Mingguang has long figured it out, because he promised the family of three.
Therefore, he understands the truth, and he also knows what he should do in the future, but he just can't let go of Sun Ming's death, Li Tian only said one word about it.
"Cry if you want to, cry boldly, no one will disturb you here."
As soon as Li Tian's words fell, a heart-rending cry sounded, Qian Mingguang put away Sun Ming's ashes, hugged the big black jar, and cried bitterly, crying so much that his heart was broken.
This cry, Qian Mingguang cried for half an hour, listening to his cry, Li Tian's eyes were also red, how familiar this cry was, and how sad this powerless heartbreak was.
Wasn't this how I used to be, just walked down from the battlefield of the corpse mountain and sea of blood, and hid in the camp alone and cried, the so-called man didn't flick when he had tears, but after crying, it really made people feel a lot more comfortable.
Half an hour later, Qian Mingguang's crying gradually weakened, Li Tian still turned his back to him, and said lightly: "If you cry, then let's go, remember, this is the last time you cry today, I don't want to shed a tear when I see you tomorrow, and you are still on the task of scout today, you know?" ”
Qian Mingguang hugged Sun Ming's ashes altar and nodded with teary eyes: "I know." ”
"Okay, let's go."
Li Tian was just about to get up from the ground, when Qian Mingguang's voice suddenly sounded in his ears again.
"General, can I ask you a question?"
Seeing this, Li Tian simply sat back on the ground and said, "What's the problem, let's talk about it." ”
Qian Mingguang organized his own language, and finally planned to take this opportunity to ask the questions that had been buried in his heart for a long time, only to hear him choke up.
"General, aren't you afraid of death, you will die in battle, but whether it is Brother Sun, or other brothers who died in battle, they are so brave when they go to the battlefield to fight with the Huns, why are none of them afraid of death, but I am so afraid, so afraid that I don't even listen to my own body, I can only watch Brother Sun die in front of my eyes, general, I am very useless, is this the gap between me and you."
Hearing Qian Mingguang's question, Li Tian was suddenly stunned, and after a while, he smiled bitterly, afraid of death, who is not afraid of death, but Li Tian raised his chin and looked at the sunset that had fallen from the horizon in the distance, his eyes were deep, and he said sadly.
"Mingguang, have you thought about it, someone has to die."
"If we don't go, who should we let go?"
Someone has to die.
Qian Mingguang was like being struck by lightning, and suddenly the whole person was stunned in place, and these six words kept echoing in his heart.
Somebody's going to die, yes, somebody's going to die.
Li Tian sat cross-legged on the ground, stretched out his hand and patted his chest, "If we die, others will be able to live well, the people will not have to suffer from war, and our children and grandchildren will be able to live without worry, which is why we are not afraid of death when we go to the battlefield." ”
"Because somebody has to die."
"And we, the ones who died at the front."
