Chapter 180: Watching the Fire from the Other Shore
Fei Xuan was shocked, his face was frightened, and he hurriedly protected him with his arms, desperately blocking, but he was a civil official, how could he match the skills of the other party?
Seeing that man's powerful arm passed through his double split like nothing, and grabbed Fei Xuan's neck!
Fei Xuan's eyes widened, and he exclaimed desperately!
The other party's five fingers were like eagle claws, clasping his neck, but he didn't feel uncomfortable being tightened, he glanced at the other party, and suddenly understood: "It turns out that you are just a 'teleportation phantom'! Under the 'teleportation phantom', you can't kill me, haha!"
His laughter didn't stop, but it suddenly stopped!
The throat was crushed by the other hand in an instant!
"You ......" Fei Xuan's eyes widened, looking at Yechen opposite, a large patch of blood gushed out of his mouth, and his head tilted, like a rag doll with a broken neck, leaning against the tent wall and falling weakly.
Yechen looked at him indifferently and withdrew his hand.
"This person turned out to be a two-faced traitor, first betrayed the Phantom Kingdom, and now betrayed me, what a real innocent death!" Ye Chen looked at his corpse and said coldly.
"He has never betrayed the Phantom Kingdom at all," beside him, the dark figure in the white light said lightly: "The defenders of Weicheng can't resist the demon army at all, and his fake defection to the enemy is just the instruction of the current lord and high priest, so that at the critical moment, he should cooperate with the outside and cooperate with the Phantom Army!"
"Oh, is it?......" The red light in Yechen's pupils slowly lit up: "So, he pretended to cross the river to persuade Dugu Xin to surrender before, it seems that it was just a bluff, but instead he informed Dugu Xin of the inside story of our army?"
"Not only that," the figure sneered: "Dugu Xin also discussed with him a plan to cooperate with the inside and outside, if the general doesn't catch this traitor, I'm afraid that when the war comes, the one who will be defeated will be the general!"
"But you didn't tell me about it," Yechen turned his head and looked at him coldly, "You obviously knew about it in advance." ”
"He's in the Imperial Barracks," the figure folded his arms, met Yechen's gaze indifferently, and said lightly: "And I'm in the Imperial Court of the Phantom Kingdom, if I had said it in advance, who would General Yechen choose to believe?"
Yechen looked at him, and the eyes of the two of them met in the air.
After a while, Ye Chen suddenly laughed: "I naturally believe in you!" He stretched out his hand and was about to pat the man on the shoulder, but he suddenly froze, remembering that it was just a phantom, and withdrew his hand: "Fei Xuan is just playing with me in Infernal Affairs, and now, I only have you to trust!"
The figure smiled slightly in the darkness, noncommittal.
He turned his gaze to the opposite riverbank with bright fire and drum music, and his long hair danced to himself without wind: "General, please see, this banquet and dance full of joy and joy is just a killing machine step by step!"
"The general only needs to stand by and watch the fire from the other side, and you can see the ending you want most!"
The white light on the figure suddenly faded, and it disappeared into the air with a thud.
"The ending I want the most......" Ye Chen muttered, and the red demon pupils looked at the river bank opposite.
On the camp on the opposite riverbank, the Phantom Sergeant was celebrating and enjoying the last of his joys.
Everyone of the soldiers knew that this celebration banquet was just the last tranquility before the battle of life and death.
This joy is mixed with too much sorrow and parting, and no one knows who will survive when they go to the battlefield and face the 400,000 elite soldiers and heavily armored demon army led by Ye Chen?
Drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people are still fighting in ancient times?
They were desperately drunk, they laughed desperately, and they treated all their words as if they were dying, and they wished they could finish them all at once tonight.
The fine snow in the sky fell one after another, falling silently, Dugu Xin Huo Ran stood up, caught the snowflakes with the wine glass in his hand, and said drunkly: "The desert is long wind, the flute is cold, the sun sets on the long river, the waning moon is in the sky, the fine snow listens to the copper bell at night, and enters the hometown with a dream, the three-foot Qingfeng in his hand, and the six family letters on the pillow, see the tears withering, and the enemy will be beheaded and reported to the court, who will listen?"
While reading, he poured out the wine in the cup and dripped it on the white deer knife, right next to the bonfire, his face was like a crown of jade, his posture was chic, and he danced with his sword. For a while, the drum music was bursting, the sword wind was flashing, and there were many heroes in the clouds, showing how many heroes were merry.
While drinking and watching, the soldiers applauded thunderously and applauded.
Xu Yanda had a roaring bonfire in his eyes, and took advantage of the slight drunkenness to ask the young general sitting beside him for an instant: "You say, can we win this war?"
"Yes, of course we can win!" replied on the young and handsome face in an instant, as if there was a bonfire burning in his eyes.
"This war is too hard!" Xu Yanda sighed: "Since General Dugu left the imperial court and became independent of Chaisang, I haven't returned to Chaisang for a long time, and I really miss the plum tree in my hometown! When this war is over, I will ask the court to resign, disarm and return to the field, plant a few acres of plum trees, marry a beautiful daughter-in-law, and give birth to a few white and fat dolls. ”
He took a sip of wine, squinted and laughed, as if looking forward to a better future, and touched his arm: "What about you, you are still so young, long and handsome, when we succeed in the first battle, the matchmaker who will come to your parents to propose marriage is afraid that she will step on the threshold of your family!"
"I don't have parents," said in a low voice: "When I was very young, my parents died, I joined the army at the age of eight, and I grew up in the army, in fact, ......" He paused slightly, raised his head, and looked at the bonfire in front of him: "I think, by the time we win, I should have died, in such a cruel war, soldiers are probably going to die." ”
This sentence suddenly came out of the mouth of the moment, which had always been taciturn, Xu Yanda couldn't help but be shocked, and the wine seemed to be awake, but he didn't say anything, just looked at the jumping bonfire in a daze, and gradually a warm liquid rolled down from his eyes.
After a long time, he suddenly remembered something, and his eyes looked around: "Where is General Wei?"
"Are you drunk?" General Bo Jian staggered over from behind him with a wine bag, and patted him on the shoulder: "General Wei is recuperating from his injuries, and he has already taken leave with General Dugu, come-" He snatched the wine glass from Xu Yanda's hand and poured him a full glass with the wine bag: "You and I have made this glass, but we must not miss a drop, who knows if this is the last time we drink together?"
"How can General Bo Jian say such frustrating words? You and I have made this cup, and after this battle is successful, we will drink three hundred cups again!" Xu Yanda took the wine glass, drank it in one go, and said loudly.
"Good brother!" General Bo Jian drunkenly stretched out his palm and struck him with both palms: "You and I have made up my mind!"
"It's decided!" Xu Yanda said loudly.
Several of them were slightly drunk.
"What about General Wei, I want to toast General Wei!" Dugu Xin finished dancing his sword, his eyes were drunk, and he was holding a wine glass, looking for Wei Xiao everywhere.
Xu Yanda and a few others looked at him and said with a smile: "General Dugu is also drunk! General Wei didn't come." ”
"Oh?" Dugu said: "Such a grand event, he is difficult to live again, how can he be without General Wei?"
"I'll go and ask General Wei for you!" several generals agreed.
Dugu Xin pushed them away.
"I don't need you!" he spat out the wine: "If you want to invite, of course I will invite it myself!"
In Wei Xiao's tent, it was cold and silent.
Outside the tent, there was the sound of drums and noise in the distance, faintly coming, but it seemed even more deserted inside the tent.
He was lying alone on the couch, only to feel cold, even if he was covered with a thick futon, his whole body still trembled uncontrollably.
The six, seven, or eight wounds on his body seemed to be cracked again, and it hurt fiercely.
But what hurts more than those wounds is the heart.
Even though he is a Tiance general who has made great achievements for the Phantom Country, in the eyes of the Phantom people, he will never be as prestigious and close as Dugu Xin, which is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and in the eyes of his opponent, the Demon Army, he who annihilated the 300,000 army of Yan and slashed the capital, he is only afraid of being hated by everyone.
The power that can sustain him until now will gradually be exhausted.
Some kind of indescribable pain tore him apart, and it hurt in his heart.
"Ahem...... Ahem......" He coughed low and struggled to get up, but as soon as his footsteps landed, he fell as if he were stepping on a ball of cotton.
Wei Xiao put one hand on the ground, slowly propped himself up, and walked outside the tent.
Outside the tent, the moon is like practice, a round of ice wheels slanted through the long sky like mirror water, and there is a cold light hidden in the uncertain river water in the distance.
The mountains and rivers under the moon, the huge shadows float, after this tragic war, who will this mountain and river belong?
The strange thing is that on this desert battlefield, between Ge Ming's swords and soldiers, what Wei Xiao remembered in his heart was just the shadow of a person.
The steel in his heart was melted in a moment by a piece of finger wrapping.
It turns out that thousands of troops and horses are not as good as that person's smile, and they can steal people's souls.
In the snow, there were footsteps, and someone laughed loudly: "General Wei, I said where you went, but I heard that I was alone here to admire the moon, General Wei is really interested!"
Wei Xiao looked back and saw that it was Dugu Xin.
"Tonight is the reward meeting before the expedition, General Wei, as the general of Tiance, but he didn't go, wouldn't it hurt the morale of the soldiers?
Several generals who followed him also smiled and said: "General Wei didn't drink under the pretext, so we were easy to find, and we should indeed be punished!"
At this time, the soldiers who had already followed came forward with firewood and mutton, re-lit the bonfire, roasted the mutton on the shelf, and several generals sat on the ground, but listened to Dugu's letter: "Today we gather for fun, but General Wei is here to enjoy the joy alone, you say, should it be punished?"
All the generals laughed and said, "It should be punished!"
After taking the wine bag, he asked Wei Xiao to drink three glasses in a row.
Wei Xiao couldn't refuse, so he had to take the wine glass and said, "General Dugu and the generals actually came here for Wei Xiao in person, and Wei Xiao accepted the punishment!"
I drank three glasses in a row.
The generals applauded.
After Wei Xiaofang finished drinking, Dugu Xin said again: "This time the borrowing of grain was successful, and General Wei and Xin staged a martial arts stage, and gave the demon general Yechen a martial arts, so that he would not dare to act rashly, although this person is brave and resourceful, but he is the most suspicious, and it is inevitable that I and General Wei will be a pawn - come, I will ask General Wei for a drink!"
Wei Xiao hurriedly raised his glass and said, "This matter is all thanks to the general's clever plan, Wei Xiao is just cooperating!"
Drink the wine down.
His face was slightly reddened, and his cheeks were on fire.
Dugu Xin took the wine bag and filled the wine glass for him personally: "It's rare to have a good moon tonight, and there is good snow, you and I are at the right time, like this battlefield to drink, he is difficult to drink again, he should drink another cup of wine!"
While talking, he felt that the snow above his head was boundless, and the two drank another glass.
