Volume 2 Chapter 197 Murder and Heart
An old man who has experienced the ups and downs of life and death, plus he has not experienced those hardships with Li Chengqian.
naturally lacks a sense of identity with Li Chengqian.
When he heard what Lou Ning said, it was natural for him to be at a loss.
He just stared blankly in the direction of the valley, and was speechless for a long time.
As a native of the grassland, he doesn't want his people to crawl at the feet of the Han people, and the idea of rotting meat in the pot is not only Lou Ning.
If it weren't for the fact that Li Chengqian and the people of Sun Moon Mountain had gone through so many tribulations together, they probably would have the same thoughts as the old man.
"I can still fight! I can still step on a warhorse! I can still pull the bow! The old man muttered to himself.
With that, he stepped out of the carriage with a sluggish expression and walked straight towards a war horse.
Although he is old, the moment he stepped on the war horse, the former steppe warriors seemed to be back.
He wanted to ask, to ask Puse, what was going on with all this.
Just when someone wanted to stop the old man, Lou Ning waved his hand and stopped the man.
The old man rode slowly towards the valley on his horse.
Looking at his bleak back, Dayan Mangjiebo and the others smiled.
Lou Ning is really ruthless!
He didn't kill the old man, he didn't even torture him, he must have been waiting for today.
Murder and heartbreaking!
There is nothing more desperate than the disapproval of one's own people.
Nothing shakes people's hearts more than the doubts of their own people.
This is the purpose of Lou Ning.
He did not believe that a former outcast could approve of his own people surrendering to the Han Chinese.
This is the pride in their bones.
So, he also rode his war horse and looked at the old man who was slowly moving forward from a distance.
Li Chengqian also saw a single man riding towards them.
He frowned.
Besiege?
Joke, a solo siege? Nothing like this has ever happened in the past.
Just when someone was about to pull his bow and arrow, Li Chengqian raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, let's take a look." ”
Riding alone, the threat to them is really limited.
Looking at this solo ride, Li Chengqian propped his hands on the battlements of the city wall, a little puzzled.
At this moment, the old man's eyes were still empty, and he couldn't see the people on the city wall clearly, but the flag with the word Daming written on the city wall could see it clearly.
He couldn't figure it out!
Even if you die in battle, you can't vote for Tang!
What about the bloodiness of the steppe people?
What about the arrogance of the steppe people?
We, the old immortals, were willing to die, not to let you live at the feet of the Han people!
If I knew this, I should have fought with Lou Ning and them that day!
Why do you suffer such a great disgrace?
The more he thought about it, the more unsettled the old man's heart became, the more resentful he was, and the more unwilling he became!
On the city wall, seeing the old man coming slowly, Puxiruo's face became more and more ugly, and finally, he lay on the wall with a pale face, and muttered bitterly: "Why are you not dead yet!" Not dead yet! Not dead yet! ”
He recognized it!
But it was precisely because he recognized this old man that he was so out of shape!
You have all surrendered to the enemy, where do you still have the face to come to this Sun Moon Mountain!
Seeing his reaction like this, Li Chengqian finally knew who this person was, and immediately fell silent.
I think that at the beginning, they were the heroes of Platts I, and it was they who disregarded their own safety and gave Platts a chance to escape.
But today, it is still them, with their former enemies, coming to the city.
Is it ironic?
It's always more or less ironic.
But this is not the key, the key is what kind of impact his appearance will have on Sun Moon Mountain!
At this time, those homeless people were looking at all this curiously, they were at a loss!
And those people of the Platts Division are staring at the old people in the city with hatred, what kind of mood they are incomprehensible to others.
There is hatred, regret, and more is probably heartache.
patted Pu Xiruo's shoulder, Li Chengqian said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, and this has nothing to do with you. ”
He didn't know how to comfort the Pushero who had single-handedly created all this.
There are some things that you have to face by yourself after all.
Taking a deep breath, Pucciro straightened his chest again, he knew that this was the catastrophe he had to cross, he had abandoned them in the first place, and today, he came, he couldn't hide, and he couldn't hide.
"Why?" Pu Xiru asked in an unwilling tone.
The voice is loud and the resentment is heavy.
Hearing Pu Xiruo's words, the old man also stopped, and he didn't know what kind of mood he was in coming, at this time, he had reached a position that was only about ten steps below the city wall.
Because he recognized who this person was, Li Chengqian didn't let people release arrows, otherwise, he would be nailed to death a hundred steps away with a bed crossbow on the city wall.
Without dismounting, the old man raised his head and first glanced at Li Chengqian, then at those familiar clansmen, and finally fell on Puxiruo's body, sighed, and then he said: "I also want to know why!" ”
"Why? How do you have the face to ask why! Pu Xiru was suddenly furious, pointed to the Pu clan people around him, and said with a hideous face, "Look at them! Who of them is not your people!
Your children, your grandchildren, who are not blessed by this Sun Moon Mountain, survive!
Look at you, do you know what you're doing! You have brought us once again the executioner who almost wiped out our people!
Do you want to see your people, your children, your relatives, and your brothers die before your eyes? ”
Puxiru is very desperate, this person in the city is a shame for their Platts! Shame!
Since he took the helm, there has never been a person who has turned his back on his tribe! He was the first!
But many times with the first one comes with the second!
Some things just start and go on and on!
"My people! You remember it for me! Pucci hissed and roared desperately, "I don't have anyone like this in the Platts department!" He has turned his back on us, and he no longer deserves to be a Pu clan, a selfless man to take as a warning! ”
"No!" Under the city, the old man suddenly roared, "I'm not a traitor, no!" I have never betrayed my tribe! Even in the case of life and death, I have never had this thought!
No! I'm not! In the end, the old man's voice was slightly low, and his tone was full of unwillingness.
"I'm not!
I really didn't betray you! ”
However, no one believed his defense, and Lou Ning's army was there! How could this hard truth make them believe the old man's words?
Moreover, didn't the old man slowly come out of Lou Ning's army?
At this time, didn't Lou Ning and the others press him in the back?
Actions speak louder than words!
"Shut up!" Puxi shouted angrily, "In the past, I owed you to serve as the queen of the palace of suspicious soldiers, but today, you led a large army to the city, and it was you who turned your back on us!" ”
"I didn't!" The old man roared, "No! It's you, it's you who have turned your back on the blood of our steppe people! I knew that you would surrender to a Han family, and I should have fought to the end that day! Even if the clan is wiped out, it is better than surviving under a Han family now!
This is still my prairie man! It's my Platts! ”
The more the old man talked, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more irritable he became, as if everything was caused by Puxi's submission to Li Chengqian.
Pucci stopped talking, and he was silent.
He couldn't explain to him why they surrendered to Li Chengqian, but he understood that he was dissatisfied with their submission to the Han Chinese, so he chose to betray.
After a long time, Puxi said, "Go back, I will not kill you today, but the next time you appear in the siege army, I will kill you!" ”
With that, Puxiru closed his eyes.
He didn't want to look any further.
Guilty?
Yes, but not much.
He never regretted his decision, not even to this day, even if he had to do it all over again.
He just regretted, just unwilling.
How could he betray!
"Will you kill me?" The old man smiled bitterly, looked up at the gray sky, as if God had never taken pity on him, laughing and laughing louder and louder, but anyone could hear a little loneliness, a little unwillingness, a little self-deprecation from the laughter, "In the past, the head man who regarded me as a sibling, he said that he would kill me!" Oh my God, did you hear that?
My chief, he said he would kill me!
Yes! ”
As the old man roared hysterically, everyone felt a bit of sadness in his tone.
Even Puxiro stopped speaking at this time.
He just opened his eyes again and stared blankly at his old brother.
"You guys!" The old man held a long knife in his hand, pointed at the people on the city wall and said angrily, "Turn your back on the grassland and be willing to crawl at the feet of the Han family!"
But I'm going to tell you! I won't! I don't want to!
The warriors on the grassland have a backbone that can never be bent!
Han Jiazi, I will kill him! ”
People are actually very strange, the old man obviously did not betray, but now, he only thinks that he has betrayed.
Because he knew that when Lou Ningbing came to the city, he couldn't tell him about it.
Moreover, if you really want to talk about it, after he escaped death, he already had a lot of dissatisfaction with Pu Xiruo, otherwise he would have returned to Sun Moon Mountain a long time ago.
When he was in Chishui City, he did enjoy the rich life that Lou Ning gave him, that is, Lou Ning did not torture him, otherwise, he didn't think he could resist.
Seeing his performance, Li Chengqian smiled and said casually: "When a person finds out that he is sorry for you and knows that he is wrong, it means that he will always be sorry for you, and he will continue to be wrong again and again."
Man is like that, because he needs someone else's fault to cover up his actions.
Let him go, the right is to repay his kindness to lure the enemy rather than die, and from then on, there will be no more to do with it. ”
For such a person, Li Chengqian really didn't take it to heart.
From ancient times to the present, traitors have rarely been mixed up.
Of course, the reason why Li Chengqian said so much was actually to reassure more people.
Hearing this, Puxi waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go!" It's best to go through the years and never go back. ”
The old man laughed, smiling dejectedly.
He didn't have to think much about it to know what that meant.
But is that what he wants?
No, absolutely not!
He would rather die than be expelled from his tribe.
It pains him more than killing him.
He took a deep breath, and in an instant, the old man swung his knife into his abdomen and shouted at the same time: "Instead of letting you cut me!" Why don't you go back here! ”
Just for a moment, everyone froze.
The old man committed suicide!
This is something that no one expected!
Just when everyone was stunned, the old man shouted, "I'm not a traitor! No! ”
The voice, exhausted the old man's last strength, followed closely and fell off his horse.
"Quick! Fast! Get him back! Puxiro suddenly shouted.
How resolute he had said before, how eager he was now.
Yi Yuanzhen looked at Li Chengqian, he is now the guard on the city wall, and only he can decide whether to open the city gate or not.
But the current scene made him dumbfounded, according to his thoughts, this city gate could not be opened.
However, the people who watched the Platts were all nervous and eager to look under the city wall, and he still decided to consult Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian looked at Lou Ning and the others in the distance, and finally nodded: "Go ahead, no matter what he did, he still fought for us in the past after all." ”
Li Chengqian couldn't give up after all.
For those old people, he already had respect.
Hearing Li Chengqian say this, Puxi looked at Li Chengqian gratefully, but quickly ran down in a hurry.
Li Chengqian didn't move, but stared at Lou Ning's side, but they moved, Li Chengqian might as well let them try the power of the bed crossbow.
However, at this time, Lou Ning and the others looked at the valley with a playful face, and they couldn't really hear what was going on over there, so they couldn't see it even more vaguely.
But that doesn't stop them from enjoying the show.
"General Lou's methods are really daunting, and he can stir up the enemy's army without spending a single soldier." Karasuma Nida said with emotion.
is just a captive who can be killed or not, and here in Lou Ning, he not only used him to find the traces of Sun Moon Mountain, but also arranged a trip for him.
Sure enough, those who play intrigue and trickery have dirty hearts!
On the side, Dayan Mangjiebo also said: "General Lou does have the style of a famous general, and I am afraid that few people can think of it." ”
"Your Highness praises me." Lou Ning arched his hand and said, "It's just some cleverness, I can't get on the stage, if I am the one, this person is less than a hundred steps closer, and he has already made people shoot into a hornet's nest." ”
"This is something that General Lou can do." Dayan Mangjie smiled, "It's a pity that he can't do it, in the end, he is still a little softer." ”
At this time, Tanma also came back and repeated their conversation, and everyone laughed when they heard it.
It is already unexpected that this man had such a role before he died.
Traitors, as long as there is the first, the second and third will not be abrupt.
For them, that's the biggest gain.
"At this time, if there are siege engines and a large-scale attack, take advantage of their restlessness at this moment, and it will not work wonders." Qiu Hao said on the side.
Karasuma Nida shook his head: "Not necessarily, they may be restless, or they may share the same hatred, emotions are difficult to talk about, I have planned to do this before, but the variables are too great, so it is useless." ”
"Why don't I take a cavalry and pretend to rob the corpses to scare them, and try the depth by the way?" Karasuma Nida said.
This method was quickly unanimously approved by everyone.
Quite yes!
Left and right is just to scare and scare them.
In this way, it can still be accompanied by the pretense of rescue, which is still a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone.
The point is that you don't need to bring many people, you can charge with a light horse.
Seeing that everyone nodded, Karasuma Nida didn't ink, and immediately ran towards the valley with dozens of light horses.
And Li Chengqian, who had been staring at their every move, saw this scene, and hurriedly asked people to speed up, and at the same time prepared several bed crossbows.
No matter what their purpose is, if they dare to come, they must be taught a lesson.
And downstairs in the city, Puxiru hugged the old man in a pool of blood with a sad face, muttering to himself.
And the old man didn't breathe yet, and said tremblingly: "Touren, I'm really not a traitor, really not a ......"
As he spoke, the old man coughed up two mouthfuls of blood.
He's too old, well, in the afterlife, he's not that old, but in this day and age, he's too old.
He didn't want to leave his tribe, he didn't!
So, he'd rather die.
At least for this moment, he was satisfied.
Anyway, the people still cared about him.
"No, you're not!" Puxi's face was full of tears.
He knew that the old man would not survive.
As soon as he came down from the city wall, he brought with him a Platts paramedics, who only examined the stab wounds and the amount of bleeding and concluded that the old man was not alive.
Even if it is sent to Dr. Chao, it is useless.
So, by this time, Puccira no longer wondered if he was a traitor or not.
It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter at all.
He just hopes that this old brother who escaped death can walk peacefully all the way.
Do you think this old man is a bad person?
It's not true, he and those people acted as suspicious soldiers at the beginning, and he took the errand without any hesitation!
It is precisely because of their hard work that there is today's Sun Moon Mountain.
But you have to say that he is a good person.
That's.
He had the opportunity to escape back to Sun Moon Mountain more than once, but he did not do so.
Even, at a certain moment, he even had the intention of betraying Sun Moon Mountain.
It can only be said that his predecessors made Lou Ning believe that they were all unyielding lords, but let him escape.
Therefore, it is not appropriate to define this old man with good or bad.
And in the midst of their weeping, the neighing of war horses came.
Enemy attack!
Pu Xiru hurriedly asked people to drag the old man's body back to the urn city, and quickly arranged for someone to close the door.
And above the city tower, Li Chengqian saw that these dozens of people were getting farther and closer, and he was not ambiguous at the moment, and shouted directly: "Bed crossbow, open the bow!" ”
Although this bed crossbow was designed by Li Chengqian himself, it still imitated the bed crossbow of many other dynasties, and its power is comparable to that of a bow and arrow.
Karasuma Nida is also ready to take people to test Li Chengqian's risks.
As a result, I saw a sound of breaking wind in my ears, and then the person next to me stared at the ground.
This scene really scared Karasuma Nida!
What kind of weapon is this? So fierce?
