111. Breaking one's promise

On the 12th of July, the sudden good news from the border gate made the whole country excited. According to the previous covenant, according to www.biquge.info the previous alliance, the Dajin Kingdom, which was also hostile to the Great Liao, sent troops to attack the Liao, and at the same time, nearly 600,000 troops of Dahua also fought out of the border pass, and the Liao army retreated under the attack of the two armies.

In this battle, Dahua regained a large area of land that had previously fallen, and Dajin more than doubled its territory. Emperor Liao was forced to sign a contract to cede land and pay compensation.

The good news spread all over the country, and the people of Hexi Town rushed to tell each other, and soon everyone in the town knew about it.

Liu Min sat alone in the room, his expression gloomy. In her mind, Da Liao's iron cavalry is the best in the world, and now it has been defeated, which makes her incomprehensible and sad. The current emperor of the Dajin Kingdom, Wanyan Sheng, she has seen, that year this person just ascended the throne, Emperor Liao invited him over, he met Emperor Liao in the court, his face was full of sincere fear, he was simply intimidated by the prestige of Emperor Liao, how dare this kind of person unite with the same weak Dahua to attack Da Liao?

Now, Liu Min has no way of knowing the losses and casualties of Da Liao, but she knows very well in her heart that it must be very heavy. She has always been worried about the country and the people, and is even willing to sacrifice herself for the country. Her homeland was trampled on by the enemy, and her people were slaughtered, all of which made her heart ache.

Tears slipped from her eyes, and she sat there in a daze and let the tears fall. Suddenly, someone gently wiped away her tears with a silk handkerchief, and then Wu Zheng's voice sounded beside him: "I want to go out to run errands, you can go with me." ”

Liu Min didn't refuse, she stood up silently and walked out of the Supreme Gang with Wu Zheng.

Da Liao and Da Hua fought for many years, Da Hua lost more and won less, and the people of Dahua suffered deeply and hated Da Liao very much. Now that the snow is shameful, the people are naturally full of lights and joy. The atmosphere in the streets seems to be more festive than a holiday.

Wu Zheng walked in front, Liu Min followed behind with his head down, and neither of them spoke. A few children ran up to them, shouting as they ran: "Liaogou is defeated!" Liaogou is defeated! Liu Min's body shook, but his footsteps did not stop, but his head was lowered.

Wu Zheng visited an ironware shop, sat in the shop, and talked to an old man in his fifties, whose son died on the battlefield and was killed by the Liao army. Like Lao Han, there are not a few people in the family who die at the hands of the Liao. The old man talked about the good news of victory, his face was mixed with a faint sadness of joy, Wu Zheng gently patted the old man's shoulder, and then said goodbye and left.

"The old man has good craftsmanship, so I have customized a batch of parts for making fire guns in his shop, and I came here today to ask when it will be completed." Wu Zheng walked in front, as if talking to himself, and Liu Min behind him was still silent.

"I think you've seen it too, the people here are very happy to hear the news of the defeat of Da Liao, I'm not trying to stimulate you, and I'm not a pervert who feels happy because of your sadness and pain." Wu Zheng stopped on the street, turned around and continued: "I just want to say that there are no winners in war. ”

Liu Min raised her head, her eyes were slightly dazed, she didn't understand the meaning of this sentence thoroughly, but she could only vaguely understand it.

Wu Zheng looked at the sun that was gradually sinking in the west, and said: "I don't want to say anything long, you have eyes and ears, and people are not stupid, and you can distinguish right from wrong." You've lived here for a long time, and you've seen a lot of things, and I'm sure you'll be able to understand what I'm saying. ”

"Finally, I have good news for you......" Wu Zheng looked at Liu Min with a smile, "You can leave here soon and go back to Daliao." Liu Min was stunned for a moment and asked: "Didn't you say ...... at that time" Wu Zheng waved his hand: "I haven't changed my mind, Da Liao will not be an enemy of Dahua now, or even in the future, because we have a new, common enemy." So you don't have to continue to stay with me as a hostage, go back to Da Liao to be your county lord, if you have the heart, mention to your emperor what I just said, it will be very good for you Da Liao. ”

The two of them walked on the street for a while, and Liu Min was in a state of contemplation, following Wu Zheng in a daze. Wu Zheng's good news Liu Min did not doubt it, but it did not bring her any joy, but her mood became even heavier.

When Wu Zheng walked to the third ironware shop, three men rushed over from behind, flashing bright short knives in their hands. Wu Zheng pushed Liu Min away, picked up a bench in the store and knocked down one of the men, and the other two men came from both sides, and he used Tai Chi to defuse the attack, and then a series of powerful combos beat the two to the point that they couldn't get up.

After cooking these three people, Li Kui rushed over from the crowd with people. Wu Zheng twisted off one of the people's wrists and asked, "Why did you kill me?" The man grinned and chirped: "You ruined our trading house, we have no food to eat, so naturally we want to kill you to relieve our hatred!" ”

Li Kui said: "They are the buddies of those commercial houses that have been seized. Wu Zheng squinted his eyes slightly, shook his head, grabbed the man's palm and said: "You see that his index finger and thumb are all calluses, obviously left by playing with knives all year round, this guy is a practitioner, not a shop guy." ”

Suddenly, Wu Zheng thought of something, his face suddenly changed, and then he shouted: "Come back to the Supreme Gang with me!" ”

At the door of the Supreme Gang, there were several gangsters lying horizontally, Wu Zheng motioned for Li Kui to check their injuries, and he pulled Liu Min and rushed in. There was a mess in the lobby, apparently after a fierce fight. The huge plaque of the Supreme Gang was broken in two and thrown on the ground, Ma San and Hu Meng were both injured, and when they saw Wu Zheng coming back, they hurriedly shouted: "Gang leader!" You're back! A group of people rushed in just now, and they shouted 'Return my firm, kill Wu Zheng' and fought with us, one of them had an old man with very high martial arts, we couldn't stop him, Pei Deputy Alliance Leader, the two gang leaders' wives and Qiao'er were all caught by them! ”

Wu Zheng's face was pale, and he helped them sit down one by one, Li Kui checked everyone's injuries, fortunately there were no deaths, but a few of them were seriously injured, and they were afraid that they would be disabled.

Liu Min asked the old man what he looked like, his face changed, he hesitated, and still told Wu Zheng: "It's Old Man Zhong......" Wu Zheng nodded and said, "I already know, but I didn't expect them to collude together." The major commercial houses that were seized, the Dragon and Tiger League, Ning Zhen and Zhong Wannian and his wife...... Hmph, it's okay, save me from dealing with them one by one, and it's nice to solve all of them! ”

Liu Min said: "It's better to let me go to Old Man Zhong, they will definitely let you go when they see me." Wu Zheng snorted, shook his head, and said: "It's not a matter of letting people go now, smashing my gang, hurting my people, and arresting my relatives and friends, this account can't be settled like this." He turned his head and said, "You can send a letter to the old man surnamed Zhong, as long as he personally comes to the door to apologize, I can not blame the past, otherwise I will send him to the western sky!" ”

Liu Min had never seen Wu Zheng so angry, she was a little overwhelmed, and said, "You are not Old Man Zhong's opponent, why do you need eggs to touch stones?" Let me tell you about it, things will definitely turn around. Wu Zheng didn't answer, but took a rope from the side with a gloomy face, and tied her up despite Liu Min's struggle.

"I broke my promise, you can't leave here for the time being, until I clean up all these bastards, I'm sorry!" Wu Zheng pushed Liu Min to the side of the two gangsters, and said coldly: "Watch her!" ”
