Chapter 196: Don't act rashly
But this time, Long Mengxun didn't answer anything, but rushed towards Gu Chaoci all of a sudden, although Gu Chaoci also had martial arts, but in the end he was defeated, and one of the soldiers also ran to ventilate the news all of a sudden.
Long Mengxun held Gu Chaoci hostage, and happened to meet Wei Shuo, who came to rescue Gu Chaoci, and the Qingyun Army immediately surrounded him.
Seeing Gu Chaoci who was held hostage by him, Wei Shuo immediately panicked, and immediately shouted at Long Mengxun: "Long Mengxun, you hurry up and let go of Chaoci, I can spare you from dying." ”
"Wei Shuo, this is your most beloved woman, but now it is in my hands, now, you immediately let your people withdraw from here, this city is my territory in Xiyue, you take your people out of here, otherwise, even if I die, I will definitely take her with me, do you hear?"
Long Mengxun shouted at Wei Shuo, his hand moved slightly, and the sword against Gu Chaoci's neck seemed to cut her neck.
"Long Mengxun, don't act rashly, if you dare to hurt him, I will make you unable to even be a ghost, I will definitely make you unable to survive, you can't die, and I will let you watch Xiyue be destroyed, let Xiyue disappear completely, so that even if you really go to the underworld, you will also be a sinner in your Xiyue." Wei Shuo said immediately.
"Then you will retire immediately." Long Mengxun immediately shouted.
"It is impossible to withdraw the army, I am the general of the Yan State, and for the sake of my country, it is impossible for me to withdraw the army, but the only thing I can tell you is that if you hurt the imperial resignation, I will definitely do what I say, and I will not give up if I do not defeat Xiyue."
Wei Shuo said, he looked at Gu Chaoci, who was held hostage, and said, "I know, if I don't withdraw from the army, I may be very ruthless and unjust."
But, no matter what the result is, I just want to tell you, heaven and earth, from the first time I saw you, I have only you in my heart, I am afraid that I will die on the battlefield, so I will say something like that to you, now, maybe you will die, maybe I will die, but what I want to say is, whether you die first or I die first, can you wait for each other on the bridge?
In the next life, I promise you an expectation, I wish you a happy life, just hope that in the next life, we will no longer be in such a troubled world, but in a peaceful period, even if it is just to be a farmer, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, it is also a beautiful thing.
At that time, will you marry me like that? ”
In the face of Long Mengxun's request, Wei Shuo, as a general, can't do it, once he really withdraws with the Qingyun Army, not to mention the decline in morale, who else will be convinced of him as a coach in the future?
But if he wants to sacrifice the girl he loves because of this, although he is also reluctant, he will not let her leave alone.
Without Gu Chaoci, there would be no Wei Shuo.
"I do." Gu Chaoci nodded with a smile and said, although the tears still couldn't help falling, but these were not tears of fear, nor tears of sadness, but tears of happiness.
"So, on the bridge, you must not go over by yourself, otherwise, I won't be able to find you." Wei Shuo chuckled, looking at her so softly for the first time, so greedy for the smile on her face.
"Ah..... have you two said enough?" Long Mengxun shouted and asked, "Wei Shuo, are you retreating or not?" ”
"Long Mengxun, if you really want to be a sinner in Xiyue, then you can do it." Wei Shuo said fearlessly, "Your father, mother, and your brothers and sisters are just using you, I really don't know, how much more do you have to do for Xiyue?" But no matter what you do, it won't change the fact that you've been abandoned.
Long Mengxun, what you are doing now will not change anything at all, even if I withdraw from the army now, I can still fight back with the army, and I can also defeat the entire Western Vietnam, so you can give it a try. ”
As soon as these words came out, it was simply straight to Long Mengxun's heart, which was already on the verge of breaking.
"Ah......" Long Mengxun shouted, but in the end, he let Gu Chaoci go, looking at the Qingyun army around him, he also knew that he couldn't escape, Xiyue already had no place for him, even if he let Wei Shuo withdraw now, Xiyue would not have a place for him.
He is an outcast, and now, there is only one way to die.
In the end, Long Mengxun chose the most direct way to break off, drawing his sword and killing himself. Gu Chaoci stayed in Wei Shuo's arms, watching Long Mengxun fall in a pool of blood like this, saying that he didn't feel it, it was fake.
This is actually a poor man because of the war. Long Mengxun died, and the city was successfully taken over and incorporated into the territory of Northern Yan.
It's also an acquaintance, although on the battlefield, he is their enemy, and even hurt Gu Chaoci in the end, but people die like lights out, and there is no point in pursuing it.
Therefore, Long Mengxun's body was not still in the mass grave like this, but chose to be buried, which can be regarded as giving him a little dignity in the end. After all, he is also a poor creature who is used by his own affection.
"What's wrong?" Pei Huai looked at Xu Xi, who was not a little emotional, and asked out loud.
"It's nothing, I'm just feeling a little emotional." Xu Xi said softly, "Long Mengxun died like this, it really makes people feel a little, he has been for Xiyue all his life, for his father, and for his country, but in the end it is such an ending." ”
"War is so cruel, so, since ancient times, war has only caused such a tragedy, but if we can't win this war, perhaps, there will be more people who will be separated from each other, and their families will be ruined. There were already too many people who had died before. Pei Huai's voice also had a look of helplessness.
No one wants it to happen, but where there are people, there will be fighting, and where there is fighting, there will be war, after all, this is the instinct of human nature.
The survival of the fittest, otherwise, it will only be the fate of being destroyed. The eternal remains the same, and since ancient times, it has been like this.
"I really don't know how long this war will last? Where do we go from here? Xu Xi asked with some concern, "Huai, what do you say, what will happen to the Qingyun Army in the future?" What will happen to Wei Shuo and Gu Chaoci? What will happen to me and you? And what about Mirror Lake Palace? Will there also be a day of perdition?
When Wen Qi wrote a letter before, informing Long Mengxun to sow discord in the palace, I was thinking, when will such a day be the end?
One day with the power in hand, there will be a second Long Mengxun who will jump out, Wen Qi is the emperor, he can defend you once, but the three of them become tigers, after all, there is still no way to escape the fate of the first time.
So, I'm not worried about myself, I'm just worried about you, worried about those soldiers, where should they go is the best choice? ”
If something like that happens again, Xu Xi really doesn't know if he can arrive in time to save him next time.
Looking back at the beginning, even if he was mentally incomplete and didn't remember everything since the age of fifteen, those days were the happiest since they met.
In the previous life, it was full of blood, and in this life, it is still the same, maybe God likes how to punish a person. But she was really tired and tired of such a life.
Pei Huai gently hugged her into his arms and said, "Xi'er, what I promised you, I will definitely do it, give me a little time, I will inform the answer to all this, and I will give you a due explanation." "This won't last long.
"Huai, when all this is over, let's find a small village and live a life that ignores the world, okay?" Xu Xi snuggled in his arms and asked with a smile.
"Okay, when the time comes, you decide where to go, and we'll go wherever we go." Pei Huai replied softly.
"That's what you said, don't go back."
"No, it won't."
Gu Chaoci and Wei Shuo can be regarded as having finally gotten back together after this battle, and the two of them should be regarded as lovers and finally married, and it is also at Xu Xi's suggestion that they plan to hold a simple wedding for their lovers in this military camp.
Although here, there are no matchmakers, parents' orders, but these soldiers who have been fighting side by side for this period of time, swearing blood and oath, as well as their good friends and good buddies, such a wedding, although relatively simple, but it carries everyone's full blessings.
"It's beautiful." Xu Xi helped Gu Chaoci put on bridal makeup, put on a red wedding dress for her, covered her with a red hijab, and helped her to the man who said that no matter who died first, he would wait for the other party on the Nai He Bridge.
"Worship heaven and earth."
"Two worship the high hall."
"Husband and wife worship each other."
"Licheng!"
"Congratulations, congratulations."
"You must be happy, I wish you all to grow old together and give birth to a noble son early."
"Send it to the cave ....."
The bride was sent away, but the groom and the groom were the object of everyone's drinking, today, probably the most lively and happy day in the entire barracks, right?
"You have to take it easy, don't drink our bridegroom's official even in the cave room."
"Hahaha......"
Looking at such a lively scene, Xu Xi just smiled very happily, and was sincerely happy for Gu Chaoci and Wei Shuo.
"In the future, I will definitely give you a wedding that is even more lively than this." Pei Huai walked up to her, put his arm around her, and said.
"Hmm." Xu Xi smiled and replied.
The war was still going on, but it didn't take long for news from the Southern Jin Dynasty and the West Vietnamese side that they were asking for peace, and they set up a Hongmen banquet and waited for Pei Huai to negotiate.
The stalemate between the three countries has been like this, after all, it is not a solution, it consumes too much, and the war is endless, so it is understandable that they want to ask for peace.
Pei Huai also understands such a truth, he once said before that he would give Xu Xi an explanation, but now, he thinks very clearly, some things should be done.
