Chapter 115. There is always a win or loss in a war
"Archers release arrows! The rest of the soldiers quickly entered the level! Fast! ”
Li Sheng roared angrily, and then rushed to Sheng Jingyu's side to escort him.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xue, go quickly!"
Sheng Jingyu thought about the almond in his arms, held back his anger and nodded, and while the enemy was dealing with the random arrows, he cut off the missing arrow with one hand, and quickly left here with the almond in his arms with the other.
On the cliffs
A tall, exotic man in exotic clothing watched the scene from a distance, frowning slightly.
He ordered the archers to concentrate on the onslaught, but the two were already out of the encirclement, and the bows and arrows could not be shot at all.
He snorted coldly, just looking at Almond's back with some doubts.
What kind of person can make an emperor protect her in times of danger?
Thinking about it, he whispered to the people beside him.
"Go and check for me, who is the person who followed the Emperor of the Sheng'an Dynasty."
The subordinates received the order and hurriedly took a detour down the mountain to follow.
Within the boundaries of Hanling Pass
Sheng Jingyu held the almond and quickly swept by.
Almond didn't dare to open his eyes, but he was afraid that when he opened his eyes, he would see the tragic situation at that time.
She only buried her head in Sheng Jingyu's arms, feeling the cold wind blowing on the side of her face.
I don't know how long it took, but the wind finally stopped, and she still didn't dare to open her eyes.
Sheng Jingyu was in a heavy mood, and looking at the appearance of almonds, she was distressed.
"It's okay."
The person in her arms trembled, Sheng Jingyu felt that something was wrong, and held her face with both hands.
I saw that on the delicate and small face under the palm of my hand, a pair of beautiful eyes were tightly closed, there were water droplets hanging on the eyelashes, my nose was a little red from the wind, and my whole face was pale.
Sheng Jingyu's heart tightened and he called out loudly.
"Almond, it's okay!"
Almond's mind was full of the bloody scene she had just seen, and it had been swirling in her mind.
She wanted to scream out to them not to do it, but she couldn't.
Seeing the whole valley strewn with corpses and rivers of blood, she was about to faint, but fortunately someone woke her up.
Almond opened his eyes, his eyes were red, and his voice couldn't help but tremble and choke.
"They...... Are they okay? ”
Almond knew how tragic the scene was, but he still asked with a glimmer of hope.
Sheng Jingyu was also in a very heavy mood, but in order to appease the almonds, he still said "um".
Almond tugged at the corners of his mouth, "That's good...... That's good......"
Actually, how can it be okay?
The scene she saw just now was already full of stumps, how could people be okay?
Thinking of the so many people she had spent on this journey with, including some familiar faces for her, her heart ached.
The two entered the pass first, sent local soldiers up the back mountain, and found that the enemy had disappeared.
There were probably more than a dozen dead bodies, but Almond remembered that when she saw them, there were at least thirty of them.
These thirty or so people, she didn't know how they got into Guanzhong and entered the back mountain.
Sheng Jingyu naturally thought of this problem, and looked at the generals who followed them and guarded the place with cold faces.
"Subordinates are derelict in their duties! Please also punish Your Majesty! ”
"My subordinates never dreamed that someone would quietly break into this place!"
"What the hell is going on? We are strictly guarded, and it is impossible to ...... How could the U-Korean enemy army come in? ”
Sheng Jingyu sneered, "Then it depends on whether any of you have strict mouths and hands." ”
The meaning of this is that they have found a traitor.
For a while, several people looked at each other, and knelt down in a hurry, arguing that it was not themselves.
"I hope it's not you, let's clean up the battlefield first, and I'll find out about this matter later."
Several people obeyed, listening to the anger hidden in Sheng Jingyu's words, and hurriedly retreated.
Almond didn't dare to look down the cliff, she already had a psychological shadow, and she only dared to look at Sheng Jingyu.
Soon the generals of Hanling Pass came back to resume their lives, and a few people stood in a row, but no one spoke.
They were waiting for each other to speak, and in the end, everyone was silent.
"How many casualties!"
Sheng Jingyu rubbed his eyebrows and took the initiative to ask.
The emperor spoke, and everyone couldn't push it anymore, and replied tremblingly.
"Thirty-five people died, fifty-seven were seriously wounded, and one hundred and eight were slightly wounded."
That adds up to about two hundred.
If you put it on the battlefield, it's not a big number.
But now, they are in their own lair, in the mountains behind their homes, and they are ambushed.
This is not the same as going to the battlefield, these people are all equivalent to dying in vain!
I didn't even have a chance to fight back, and I was always at a disadvantage.
This is simply a shame for Sheng Jingyu.
He closed his eyes and eased his emotions, and his tone was heavy.
"Lay the dead soldiers and give their families a generous pension. Injured people are treated with the best medicine to save their lives as much as possible. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Several people left, and only Almond and Sheng Jingyu were left on the cliff.
Almond was also very uncomfortable in her heart, she didn't know how to comfort Sheng Jingyu, so she could only step forward and gently wrap her arms around his waist from behind.
Sheng Jingyu's body stiffened for a moment, then took her hand and turned around.
"Let's go, go back."
Almond nodded, and the two entered Hanling Pass together and returned to the barracks.
As soon as he entered the barracks, he saw Su Cheng hurrying up from a distance.
Almond just wanted to tell him that he was fine, but he rushed up and hugged Almond in his arms.
Feeling the low pressure of the person beside her, she quickly pushed Su Cheng away.
"I'm fine, I'm fine."
Su Cheng nodded his head twice vigorously, and struggled to say words of concern.
"I ...... Very...... Lose sleep over something...... You. ”
Almond understood, and was a little relieved.
"yes, I see."
Sheng Jingyu watched their interaction from the sidelines, and her already low mood was even more irritable.
No matter how he looks at Su Cheng now, he feels that it is an eyesore, and he wants to throw him aside.
He dragged the almonds irritably and went straight back to the main camp.
Sheng Jingyu dealt with military affairs, and Almond stood next to him.
It was obvious that he was unhappy, and Almond did not speak, so as not to provoke him.
His Majesty's possessiveness has been committed again, and she has not done anything too out of line, putting on a stinky face that makes people look uncomfortable.
In the evening, a meeting of the generals in the barracks was held.
Sheng Jingyu left a sentence and said that he must make Wu Han pay the price.
decided to choose a day, so he set off with the whole army and directly used his strength to fight them back.
War is cruel, and Almond understands that today.
Only the winner can save dignity and life.
If human life had to be sacrificed, Almond still hoped that it was not the soldiers of his own country who had to be sacrificed.
They are all human beings, but they have different positions.
But this is war, there must always be a winner or a loser, and the times can usher in peace.
