For the first time, the sun in Liaodong was so mercilessly exposed to Juehua Island.

The strong sunlight forced out all the bloody qi of the killing on Juehua Island for several days and nights, emitting bursts of disgusting smells, which could not even cover the ice and snow.

After Che Si'er led the people to investigate, he hugged his fists and trembled and couldn't speak.

Yu Jingning read something from his expression, closed his eyes and took a breath: "Say." ”

Che Si'er's throat rolled, and he choked up obviously: "There are 1,120 military households on Juehua Island, 4,378 people, a total of 8,975 people, all of them...... All ......"

Che Si'er's bones crackled for a while, trembling, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he couldn't say that sentence anymore.

Needless to say, everyone understands what that means.

The cold wind rushed to the face, Yu Zhiwei's eyes were uncontrollably sore, his eyes and nose seemed to leak into a sieve, and the cold wind was rampaging inside.

A breath of cold air crashed into the heart socket, walked around the internal organs, drained all the heat in the body, and a few drops of hot water came up, dripping from the eyes and falling to the ground. The whole body immediately became cold and cold.

Tu Dao hurts heaven and reason, but obviously there is no reason in front of the sword.

Even though the soldiers have long seen the Mountain of Blood and Corpses, this is not the time to kill red eyes before the battle, and it is difficult not to choke and cry in the face of the bones of their compatriots.

For a time, in the heavens and on the ground, only soft and sobbing were heard, and the souls of the undead who were beyond the blindness of death returned to heaven and earth.

"The bones of the corpses, whether they are all or whatever, must be buried in the ground." After a long time, Yu Jingning said a word, his hand was held on the three-eyed man's gun, his hands were blue from the cold, and the joints showed the pale of excessive force.

Yu Zhiwei quickly wiped away the tears on his face. Tears are not enough to sacrifice the dead, but the living still have much to do.

Everyone packed up their day and left Juehua Island on the morning of the 20th day of the first lunar month.

The atmosphere was heavy along the way, not only Yu Jingning kept a strained face, but even Yu Zhiwei, who can usually say witty things, did not look very good.

Not only are their comrades killed, but how they fight in the future, I am afraid they will have to start replanning the layout.

The fire of Uliangha burned the grain and grass on the island, and the grain and grass that were originally more than enough for next year were stretched thin. The defenders are not immortals, they can't conjure up food, and now there is no spring, so they can't grow food, even if they do, by the time they can eat it, tens of thousands of living people will have starved to death.

And now in charge of the household department, it is Tian Xin, who recognizes Qiu Anren as his godfather, and asks him for military salaries, not to mention whether the military salaries can be obtained first, it is good that they don't go to the fold to mention Yu Jingning's crimes as "difficult to write".

There is a saying among the people of Daheng that it is called "a good man should not be a soldier". The decision-making is all made by a group of people in the capital who have never been out of the turtle shell for half their lives, and they are decided by touching their mouths, and their group of Qiu Ba is not as good as the group of reckless people standing in the court if they win, and if they lose, they will bear the brunt of the crime. No matter what the reason, Yu Jingning, as the leader of this group of Qiu Ba, failed to guess that Wu Liangha was going to attack Juehua Island as if he had opened his eyes to heaven, and at the least, he would be charged with "unclear identification".

When Yu Jingning asked for orders to go to Liaodong, the eunuch party had only eaten deflated once and was dormant, which gave him a chance to take advantage of it. But now this eunuch is probably relieved, such a big handle in front of him is simply sleepy and sending a pillow.

Don't scratch white, don't catch.

And the Liaodong defense line is definitely not something that can be built overnight. Replace Yu Jingning, the group of rat-eyed guys in the eunuch party, where can they care about his Liaodong defense line?

"Che Si'er!" Yu Jingning pulled the reins, and the war horse under his crotch snorted twice and slowed down.

Che Si'er stepped forward and asked, "What does the prince command?" ”

Yu Jingning's face sank like water, and he frowned sadly: "First lock the news of Juehua Island." ”

Che Si'er was taken aback. This...... Isn't this a concealment?

"Go back to Ningyuan to clean up and clean up, and drive across the Xiaoling River." Yu Jingning ignored Che Si'er's indescribable face and said straight down.

Cross the Xiaoling River...... Yu Zhiwei thought about it for a moment and blurted out: "You want to fight Jinzhou?" ”

Yu Jingning didn't nod either, and pulled his face to "um".

"Ning Yuan has been in Beijing for more than 800 miles, and this news will take a day or two to arrive even if it is a horse race, and it can be sealed." Yu Zhiwei reacted immediately, "Press it down first, let's take Jinzhou down in one go, and send the good news back together with the news of Juehua Island, so that the merits and demerits can be offset." ”

Yu Jingning didn't refute, so it seems that he planned to do so.

Jinzhou, like Ningyuan, is also a battleground for soldiers, and it is still in the hands of Wuliangha. The existing grain and grass in Ningyuan City can still last for a while, if it is a quick decision, it will not be a problem to hold on to Jinzhou, and then it will be a little bit of evidence to fight with the eunuchs in Beijing.

As for the enemy platform on the Acropolis of Xiuningyuan, the guards and displaced people who remained in the city were not impossible.

The group returned to Ningyuan City with different expressions, and there were traces of artillery fire rolling under the city, and Hou Yongshou was called over to ask, if there were really soldiers coming, they were bombarded back by the two shells of Hongyi in the city.

As soon as Yu Jingning lifted the door of the tent, Yu Zhiwei was looking down and thinking, when the heating on her face made her shiver, and she suddenly came back to her senses.

There is a huge map of Liaodong's territory hanging in the tent, which is the one that Yu Jingning gave her "guidance" when they first arrived in Liaodong.

The territory map was overwhelmingly pressed on his face, making Yu Zhiwei feel breathless.

"Big brother." She sucked in sharply upwards, "That's not right. Although attacking Juehua Island can relieve the anger for a while, and it is true that burning grain and grass can alleviate the urgent need, it is impossible for them not to know that if Juehua Island is slaughtered, once the defenders of Ningyuan know about it, they will inevitably fight back, and it will be extremely fierce. Uryan Haben had no firearms, and he was already at a loss when his number was equal, so was it really necessary to lose more soldiers because of the momentary hurry? Birds and beasts still know how to cherish their feathers. ”

She raised her eyes and looked at the map again, and the territory of Wuliangha was curled up in a small place the size of a fingernail: "In this kind of war, Daheng's national strength can still support it, but what about them? Wuliang Ha Sanwei is so poor that he has a virtue, this time he almost hollowed out Duoyanwei's family when he went south, and the other two guards are not much better, what are they going to do? Are you in a hurry to die?"

Daheng is the kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and this battle is a "face", what about Wuliangha? If it is just because the winter can't go on, and the autumn wind has to be fought in the south, it is enough to fight to this extent. Regardless of the future, what are they fighting with Daheng for?
