However, glory and wealth are not what Mu Li wants, he can not care about glory and wealth, but if he does not open the city gate, someone will come to take his life tomorrow, even if he does not open the city gate, he is not the only one who guards the city, if those people still find others, what should be done?

Mu Li was very frightened for the first time, he held this gold bar, and even his hands were trembling slightly, if the city gate was wide open, and the barbarians entered the city to burn and loot, not to mention, the female general did not hold the city, then what should she do?

Is it to die to apologize, or to fight desperately with those barbarians to the death?

These two results are not what Mu Li wants to see, he has a very strange belief in his heart, even if he dies, he doesn't want to see the female general die.

He had changed shifts with other soldiers, and he wanted to take a day off, the first time in five years, that he was really unwell, and the general quickly agreed.

Mu Li was dressed in ordinary people's clothes, walking aimlessly on the streets that he was very familiar with before, those who were always abusing female generals before now have fewer reasons to abuse, all these years of ups and downs, big and small, are female generals leading the soldiers to survive, and this small border city seems to be indestructible.

These people are also accustomed to being protected by female generals, except for some people who can't escape the worldly concept of achievement, and still feel that she is a woman who should be married and taught children at home, many people already trust Lin Han very much.

Mu Li took the little silver he had received from guarding the city gate in the past few years, and walked slowly on the street, these people were used to being protected by Lin Han, although the situation was special this year, they were not aware of the crisis at all, thinking that Lin Han could always protect them, and he could always protect the city.

He walked to a jewelry stall, saw a dazzling array of hairpins, took out all his silver, and bought the most expensive of them, this hairpin had a small butterfly on it and gently spread its wings, simple but very light.

Mu Li turned around and left with the hairpin, then walked to the lake and threw the heavy gold bar in his pocket into the lake.

He thought about a lot of things when he held this gold bar, it was impossible for him to open the city gate, it was impossible for him to let this city fall, and it was impossible for him to watch Lin Han apologize for his crimes with death, or be killed by those barbarians, so he already had a decision in his heart.

One day was too short, Mu Li wanted to find General Lin Han and tell her about someone trying to buy him to open the city gate, but on the one hand, the general was busy with military affairs, and on the other hand, what if he said it?

Do you want to show her your loyalty to the death? But isn't that supposed to be the most basic duty of a soldier? Mu Li pinched the hairpin in his hand and put him in his arms closest to his heart, he thought, when this battle is over, he will take this hairpin to her, even if she doesn't accept it, even if he can only look up to her for the rest of his life.

He suddenly felt a little selfish, he didn't want to protect this city, he didn't want to protect this somewhat cold-blooded and ruthless country, he just wanted to protect that person, because she loved this city and wanted to defend this city, so he also wanted to protect what she wanted to protect.

On the second day, he continued to defend the city, and sure enough, someone came to him again, he was a soldier who guarded the city gate for the longest time, and some of the other soldiers guarded for a year or two because the city was too hard to defend and went to other positions, only he was still holding on, so in the eyes of others, if he could buy it

His words must be the safest.

Mu Li guarded the city, the harassment of the barbarians became more and more intense, and the town here had frequently reported to the imperial court, but they had not waited for reinforcements, not even for supplies and salaries, and the soldiers were complaining.

The person who stuffed him with gold bars the day before really came to him again, and Mu Li said in a low voice: "I am willing to open the city gate, but I still have a small condition." ”

The man smiled lightly, his voice seemed to be a little disdainful, obviously he was there to lure loyal soldiers to betray his country, but after he really betrayed, he felt very disdainful.

"What conditions you can say. This city is destined to be undefended, and this country is also in turmoil now, stand in line early, and enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future. ”

Mu Li said in a low voice: "After opening the door, after you kill the female general, let me make up for it with my own hands." ”

The visitor was very surprised and asked, "Do you have a grudge against her?" ”

Mu Li said: "Yes, I have been an orphan since I was a child, my parents and family were killed indiscriminately by the soldiers around her, but those soldiers were covered, I hate her, so I came here to defend the city, just hoping to have a chance." ”

The person who came was even more surprised, but he didn't expect to find a person who had a grudge against the female general, he smiled and replied: "Okay, I can satisfy you." ”

This reason was thought up by Mu Li temporarily, just to make this person trust him more, he was not the only one guarding the city gate, and there were many soldiers close to the city gate, he knew in his heart that the people who came would naturally not only look for him for the sake of safety, there must be other back-ups, but he wanted to gain his trust to the greatest extent.

The third night soon came, and there were shouts outside the city, and the battle had been going on for several days, but the barbarians were only harassing outside and not really attacking, but tonight was different.

The female general Lin Han stood on the city wall, the robe outside her armor was blown by the night wind and made a strong sound, looking at the barbarians below with a cold expression, the silver armor had been damaged a lot, but her eyes were still cold and resolute as iron.

"General, we have been fighting for some days, speaking of which is fighting, but in fact we have been defending to the death, and I think those barbarians seem to have something to rely on this time, I am afraid that they will desperately attack the city tonight, and we will not have enough supplies...... "The deputy general next to him persuaded him.

"If anyone doesn't want to fight and wants to surrender, go through my knife first." The female general said coldly, all the soldiers are now demoralized, the sky is high here, the emperor is far away, and they seem to have been forgotten here.

The adjutant general stopped talking, and the female general strode down the tower, walked to the city gate, and shouted to the soldiers guarding the city: "No matter what happens, as long as I don't give the order to open the city gate, never open the city gate without permission, do you hear?" ”

Several soldiers shouted in unison: "Yes! ”

Mu Li tightened his back to make himself look more solemn and serious, Lin Han walked up to him and said in a cold tone, "You have been guarding the city for five years, right?" Can I trust you? ”

He didn't expect that the female general would always remember him, and even remember the fact that he had been guarding the city for five years, and they had hardly had much intersection in the past five years, but a small person like him, Lin Han actually remembered him.

Mu Li shouted loudly and solemnly: "Yes! ”

Lin Han looked into his eyes,

He also looked at Lin Han's eyes, the female general was in her early thirties, she had never dressed up, she wore armor all day long, she was in the army all day long like a man, the skin on her cheeks was no longer delicate, and even there were some small crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, but her eyes were still as bright as cold stars.

The female general turned around and strode away, her back was also straight, although Mu Li knew that she had been patrolling the city wall almost all night because of this continuous war, but she still did not show the slightest weakness, she was everyone's faith and benchmark, and those people also believed that as long as Lin Han was there, their city would definitely be able to hold it.

But Mu Li knew that many soldiers also knew very well in their hearts that they would not last long, and there were no reinforcements and supplies, many people were already very tired, and even many veterans had begun to waver in their hearts.

Lin Han stood on the city wall, the barbarians began to officially attack the city when night fell, rockets flew around, the female general wore armor to command the battle on the city wall, Mu Li listened to the shouts and killings on all sides, and looked at the firelight jumping around, he regretted why he was not a soldier beside her, so that he could protect her when the arrows came, and fortunately he was a soldier guarding the gate, so that she could guard the city gate here, so that she could rest assured.

The battle on the city walls was fierce, but the barbarians still had reservations, until Mu Li heard three long horns, which were like the cries of wild beasts in the dark night, almost tearing the night apart.

However, when Mu Li heard this voice, the hand holding the spear began to sweat, and according to the agreement, after three horns, he should take advantage of the chaos to open the city gate.

Mu Li stood motionless, but the other three soldiers guarding the city around him began to be a little restless, and the truth was similar to what he imagined, not only he was bought, these people seemed to be promised benefits, but Mu Li promised Lin Han to guard the city gate, and he couldn't live up to her trust.

"Guys, what are you going to do?" Mu Li stood in front of the three of them, and some tattered armor hung on his body, but his figure was as indestructible as a small iron tower.

"Open the city gate, there is no need to defend it anymore, if you can't hold it, many people have already rebelled, not only a few of us, you can still live if you open the city gate, but if you don't open it, when the barbarians attack it, we will only die." A soldier said indifferently, he raised the spear in his hand and pointed it in the direction of Mu Li.

Now that the fighting is in full swing outside, the soldiers are busy going up the city wall to fight the barbarians, and there are not many people paying attention to the city gate.

"Do you think opening the gates will lead to any good results? After those barbarians enter the city, they will kill the people in the city, they will rob the things in the city, and you will be their accomplices when you open the city gates, and you will not be loyal to your own country, do you think that if you open the city gates, they will let you go? Mu Li said coldly.

Another soldier said: "We have at least a glimmer of hope when we open the city gates, this place doesn't even care about the state, why should we be loyal to this rotten country?" Besides, they promised that they were just trying to keep their people alive, and that they would never touch the people in the city or rob anything after they came in, but it was too cold outside the city for them to live. ”.
