"General Huo, have you seen General Li Tian, my son has always been with General Li Tian, are they together now?"
"General Huo, have you seen my husband Zhou Chong? He is a military prince under your command. ”
"General Huo, is my brother Liu Wang behind?"
Gradually, more and more people gathered around Huo Quai, because they didn't see their relatives, so they followed Sun Ming's parents and crossed the Royal Forest Army, broke into the ranks of the army, and came to inquire about Huo Qubing in person.
At this moment, there were already more than a dozen family members of the Han army soldiers in front of Huo Quai, and Huo Qubing finally stopped his steps.
Looking at the eager and anxious eyes of these people in front of him, listening to the names that had long since passed away in their mouths, Huo Qubing couldn't do anything, couldn't say anything, he could only bow his head and silently bear the inquiries of those people.
Liu Che stayed in the rear, did not step forward, he quietly looked at Huo Quai, who was surrounded by the people, looking at Huo Quai's expression as if he was dead at the moment, Liu Che's heart was shocked, recalling the huge loss of the Han army's trip, Liu Che understood everything.
The people who gathered around Huo Qu to ask questions in front of Huo Qu's illness were only afraid of ....... They were all killed in battle.
If it had been a change in the past, Liu Che would probably go to help Huo Qubing relieve the siege, but today he didn't, he silently stayed in the rear, looking at Huo Qubing who was surrounded by the people, and watching them question Huo Quai.
As a general, there are some things he has to learn to face.
Go sick, take a good look at all this in front of you, I believe you will definitely grow from it.
I can't help you in this level, only you can help you.
........
The people gathered around Huo Qubing saw Huo Quzhi's expression, and then looked at the scarred and silent Han soldiers around them, and they seemed to understand a lot of things.
Especially Sun Ming's father, the old man never answered his question when he saw Huo Quai, and never told him where his son was, the old man grabbed Huo Quai's hand with some fear, but there was still a smile on his face, but that smile contained too much reluctance and bitterness......
"General....... You....... You say, how is my son, he ...... Nothing happened to him, right, he won't have an accident, right, General? ”
Huo Quzhi raised his expressionless face, looked at the people surrounding him in front of him, and watched the fear and disbelief gradually appear on each of their faces, Huo Quzhi turned his eyes bitterly, and a trace of crystal appeared in his pupils.
At this time, a Han Dynasty official in his fifties suddenly ran over from Liu Che's side, squeezed all the way into the people who surrounded Huo Quai, and after some hard work, he came to Huo Quai's face.
At the first glance of Huo Quai, a thick smile appeared on Li Hongbin's wrinkled old face, and he said to Huo Qubing with a sigh and relief.
"General Huo, below is Li Hongbin, that is, Li Tian's father, General Huo, the inferior son didn't cause you any trouble this time, if he does something wrong, the old man is here to make amends to you."
I heard that the old man standing in front of him was Li Tian's father, and when he was Jiuqing Li Hongbin, Huo Quai's whole body was stunned.
And right now, Li Hongbin is still smiling and talking in front of him.
"General, it is really his blessing that the inferior son can go to Hexi with you this time, you must have taken care of him along the way, the old man has thanked the general here."
Looking at Li Hongbin, who was bent down and bowing to him, Huo Quzhi lowered his head, opened his chapped lips, and said softly: "No...... It's Brother Li who has been ....... It's taking care of me, it's supposed to be me...... Thank..... Thank you. ”
Li Hongbin couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Really, the old man's inferior son is not too useless, by the way, general, what about Li Tian?" Why haven't I seen him yet, General Zhao Ponu and General Fuduo have all passed, what about others? ”
What about Li Tian? Hearing this question, Huo Quzhi didn't know how to answer, and he didn't know how to answer this old man who only had one son under his knees, and was about to face the white-haired man to the black-haired man soon.
But if he doesn't answer, it doesn't mean that the matter will pass.
Li Hongbin was still asking vigorously, asking where Li Tian had gone.
It turned out that like Sun Ming, Li Tian has not married so far, and Li Hongbin has already found a good wife for him during the days when he went on the expedition, and now he is waiting for him to go back and get married.
Li Hongbin was still asking.
"General, what about Li Tian? Where did he go? ”
The relatives of other soldiers are also asking.
"General Huo, did my son Sun Ming come back from Hexi with you?"
"General Huo, what happened to my husband?"
"General, where is my brother?"
Listening to this concerned question, Huo Quzhi's eyes were already soaked with tears, and his fists were clenched at this moment, I ....... What should I do, I ....... How do I answer them.......
Huo Qubing was silent, and at this time, Sun Ming's father finally couldn't help but shout.
"General, you speak, what happened to my son!"
As soon as Sun Ming's father's words fell, Huo Quzhi could no longer bear the pressure that swept in, and knelt on the ground with a "poof".
At the same time as he knelt down, the melodious music stopped, and the whole land fell into silence.
Kneeling down in front of these bereaved people, Huo Quzhi lowered his head, clenched his trouser legs tightly with his fists, and tears flowed out of the eyes of the champion Hou like threads.
Looking at Huo Quai, who suddenly knelt down, everyone was stunned.
No...... No way...... No, it's impossible, they've won the battle, and it's impossible to die so many people if they win the battle.
At this moment, Huo Quzhi, who was kneeling on the ground, clutched his trouser legs with both hands, tears slipped down his chin one by one, Huo Quzhi lowered his head, tears fell like rain, and the depths of his throat finally let out a heart-rending roar!
"Zhenjun Zhonglang General Li Tian!"
"Military Sima Sun Ming!"
"Jun Sima Wang Keqin!"
"Military Sima Zhao Menghu!"
"Military Sima Li Tianqing!"
"Marquis Zhou Chong!"
"Marquis Wang Ming!"
"Tun Chang Liu Wang!"
"Tun Chang Zhang Tianfang!"
shouted the names of several people in a row, knelt in front of these people, Huo Quzhi, who was in tears, suddenly raised his head, looked directly at the unbelievable faces, and shouted in tears and pain: "Wait for 7,568 people, all of whom died in the country, and spilled blood on the land of Hexi!" ”
In the end, Huo Qubing kowtowed heavily to all the people in front of him.
"Huo Qu is incompetent, and he can't bring those brothers back to Dahan alive!"
"I'm sick and guilty!"
After Huo Quai's roar, the world was still so quiet, no one spoke, and the dozen or so people gathered in front of Huo Quai's eyes all stayed in place, looking at Huo Quai, who was kneeling and crying in front of him, without moving, and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Listening to Huo Qubing shouting those familiar names, all the Han soldiers who returned alive from Hexi couldn't help but sobbed quietly.
Gradually, the crying became louder and louder, and it was unimaginable that these immortal veterans would cry like a child.
The cries of the soldiers woke up the people, and Li Hongbin was the first to react, followed by his cry of grief.
"My son, you are gone, what can you do with your father!"
Li Hongbin knelt on the ground, hammering his chest and crying in pain.
At this moment, the people gathered in front of Huo Quzhi's eyes all cried bitterly, Sun Ming's two old parents stood together, holding each other's wife's hands, their cloudy old eyes were already red and swollen, and crystal tears filled them.
The two old men who lost their sons in their later years learned that their sons had died in battle, and the six gods had no owner, with tears in their eyes, and they shook their heads in a choked voice and muttered, "No...... No, Ming'er is dead...... Ming'er is really dead...... Didn't he promise that we would come back and get married......."
As Huo Qubing announced this tragic loss in public, more and more people who had lost their relatives flocked to Huo Quai's location uncontrollably, and the surrounding Yulin soldiers couldn't even stop it.
Huo Quzhi was in tears, kneeling on the ground, looking at the people who had lost their relatives and rushed towards him, listening to the irrational abuse in their mouths.
In those voices, Huo Quzhi heard a lot of words that were enough to ask.
"Why are you still standing here when my son is dead!"
"Why died my husband, not you!"
"You are their general, how did you lead them, why did so many people die, did you exchange your lives for victory!"
"What kind of famous general are you, after such a death, what face do you have to stand here, and what face do you have to say that you are a victorious army who has returned triumphantly!"
"You Huo Qubing is a despicable villain who takes the lives of soldiers in exchange for victory!"
Listening to these insults, Huo Quzhi had mixed feelings in his heart, and at this moment, he actually began to think.
Just as the people asked him, yes, why are their relatives dead, but I am alive and well, why must it be their relatives who die........
Huo Quzhi already had the answers to these questions in his heart.
Because......
Someone has to die.
I won't rule it out, the next person to fall, the next person to be in the jar, it could be me anytime and anywhere.
The people who lost their relatives were crazy, they rushed to Huo Quzhi's eyes and scolded loudly, and some of them actually waved their fists at Huo Quzhi.
Can anyone blame them? No one!
They have lost their husbands, sons, or brothers, they need to vent, they need to vent the anger in their hearts, and Huo Quzhi is willing to let them vent their anger on themselves.
Those 7,568 people died because of him.
In the blink of an eye, Huo Quzhi's face had more than a dozen bruises, and he was also kicked to the ground in the chaos when he was kneeling on the ground.
Huo Qubing in history is indeed very bright, but as a famous general who can go down in history, how many people can know the pain and tribulation he has experienced.
All this in front of me is just a very small part, very small.
The people who lost their minds dared to make a move against Huo Quai, and they didn't need the soldiers of the Yulin Army to go out, Qian Mingguang had already led people to stop those crazy people.
Accidentally, the two sides clashed.
What was originally a welcoming ceremony to welcome the return of heroes turned out to be like this in the end.
It was really unexpected.
