38 Surrender
Yu Ning's words not only showed that he would not hurt them, but also showed his respect for them, which was the most valuable for the soldiers facing this dilemma, as a soldier, didn't all he want was to meet a good leader, a good city lord? So what's the point of hesitation?
All the soldiers got off the city wall one after another, rushing towards the city gate, ready to open the city gate, the ink and Hongwang saw this, frightened, and were so busy that they ordered their subordinates to wave their swords to stop them, and cut off their heads if they couldn't stop it, but this time the soldiers resisted, so Yu Ning couldn't stop the general trend even if he wanted to.
Shui Mo was angry, he pulled out his bow and arrows, and shot at the rioting soldiers, his arrows were not missing, and he did not leave any mercy among his subordinates, and suddenly one after another the soldiers fell, although they still couldn't stop the soldiers from going out of the city, but seeing him treat his soldiers like this, several of his capable subordinates were also chilled to see it.
One of his subordinates said to Shui Mo: "Commander, the general trend has gone, just surrender, it is only a dead end to defend it, these brothers have been with the commander for so long, why not leave them a way to live?" ”
Shui Mo didn't expect that even his most trusted subordinates began to waver, his face turned purple with anger, and he said to the persuader: "Hmph, take refuge in the traitor, and still want to live, I don't think even you want to live." He pulled out the saber from his waist and threw it at the man, who didn't expect the commander to attack him mercilessly, so he didn't dodge, just stuck a knife in his chest, he looked at the commander in amazement, and said in a trembling voice: "You... You—" Before the latter words were spoken, he fell off his horse and died with a whimper.
When the other four right-hand men saw that the commander killed even the closest people, they immediately began to be disappointed in him, feeling that the commander had reached the point of madness, and there was no point in staying by his side any longer, not to mention that he, like the city lord, did not hesitate to spare the lives of the people of the world, so why should they give up their lives for such a person? The four relatives immediately exchanged glances, and then rushed towards Shui Mo, who had already turned to deal with the other soldiers.
When the four big knives poked at his vest together, Shui Mo noticed the surprise attack from behind, and he was so busy turning around that he blocked the four knives, and said angrily: "Even you want to rebel, do you still want to kill the commander?" ”
"It's not that we want to rebel, it's that you and the city lord forced us to rebel, and we can't follow a general who killed his relatives, so I'm sorry." The four of them withdrew their knives and slashed at Shui Mo in four different parts, and Shui Mo raised his knife to block it, and said angrily: "Okay, that commander even killed you together." ”
Suddenly, four people fought against one person, and they swore to fight to the death at the gate of this city, and the sound of knives was endless, but the ink had spiritual power, and there was a strong power hidden between each knife, so his four relatives were forced to retreat step by step, and it seemed that it only took half a cup of tea to die in his hands.
However, to the astonishment of the four people, the murderous leader in front of them, they thought that they would eventually die under his sword, but what they didn't expect was that the knife that slashed at them suddenly stopped in the air, and the face of the powerful man in front of them looked incredulous. The four of them looked behind them to see what was going on.
When the other soldiers saw that the commander's retinue had begun to resist, and that he had killed so many of their brothers, all the soldiers were indignant and attacked him, stabbing his spears in the back and killing him.
His round eyes still looked so dead, so resentful, but even if it was difficult to look at, this was his fate, his final fate.
One of the soldiers wanted to cut off his head, but was stopped by his entourage, and the soldiers thought they were still sheltering this person, and they were a little dissatisfied, but the four entourage said: "Even if all of us resist today and hate him, and he has killed so many of our soldiers, we should vent our anger, but we must remember that after all, he was once our commander, and even if he dies, we should remember his identity, I think that Shaojun and Yu Ning Shizi are both benevolent and righteous soldiers, and they don't want to see us ruthless enough to cut off the head of our own leader, so let's carry his body out of the city like this! ”
The soldiers had no further objections, they carried the corpse of the ink and the Hongwang who was hacked to death like a random knife out of the city gate, and walked towards Shaojun and them, and when they came to them, all the soldiers knelt down in unison and said to Shaojun and Yu Ning Shizi: "We have killed our commander and have embarked on the road of resistance, if Shaojun and Shizi do not dislike it, then we will swear allegiance to you." ”
Yu Ning hurriedly walked over, helped the four relatives up, and said: "You must remember that we are not taking the road of rebellion, we are taking the road of uprising, for the people of the world, for the road of uprising in Qing Zhou City, you are all soldiers of Qing Zhou City, we are too late to welcome it, how can we dislike it, welcome you to join us and become our capable soldiers." ”
There was no discrimination here in the world, these soldiers were more grateful than anyone else, and the four ink and wash relatives pulled out their knives and said to the soldiers behind them: "Everyone pull out the knives!" All the soldiers raised their swords.
The four relatives cut off their wrists with knives, and then they all sucked a mouthful of their own blood and swore an oath: "We swear by blood that we will be loyal to the prince of Yu Ning to the death, and there will be no dissenting intentions, and if there is dissenting intentions, we will use this knife to kill ourselves." ”
Yu Ning was excited when he heard their blood oath, and said: "I also swear that I will treat you and my soldiers equally, you will all be the heroes of Qing Zhou City in the future, and this prince will not have any favoritism, and other generals also need to obey this son's order today, if there is a violation, it will be dealt with according to the order." ”
When all the soldiers heard Yu Ning's words, they all raised their swords and shouted loudly: "Swear allegiance to the son, swear allegiance to the son!" ”
When the night fell, all the soldiers entered the city gate, rushed to the city court, and when they arrived at the palace gate, less than half an hour, the palace gate was attacked, and then the soldiers rushed in, Qing Zhan and Yu Ning Shizi went to the main hall, on the square in front of the main hall, but saw Yu Qing with the only remaining three hundred royal forest troops, waiting there, as if he had been waiting for Yu Ning, waiting for their arrival.
When the two brothers met again, their moods were completely different, one was the loser and the other was the winner, but the loser was still rebellious and unyielding, he laughed at the person in front of him and said: "I can't imagine that you can still stand in this kind of place, it seems that I should have killed you five years ago, and there would be no disaster today." ”
Yu Ning said solemnly: "You are wrong, even if you killed me five years ago, with your brutal and unkind character, these generals will stand in front of you today and question you, the fault is not whether there is me, but that you have lost the hearts of the people and the army, haven't you woken up yet?" ”
Yu Qing sneered: "The master only knows that the winner is the king and the loser is the villain, even if you traitors are forced to advance today, the master will not be afraid, let alone retreat, and that young monarch, don't think that you are here, I will be afraid, I will compromise, I tell you, I don't believe in any destiny, and I can't accept the position of the city lord for you to decide, what are you, but you are the young monarch of the royal city, why should I be at your mercy, I tell you, I have planned it all, and after I destroy you, I will attack the royal city, It's not uncommon for me to become the ruler of this Blood Ying Country, a useless city breaker. ”
Jielan looked at Yu Qing, who was already a little crazy, and her heart was both sympathetic and heartbroken, she only said: "Yu Qing, let it go, don't resist desperately anymore, and don't have those vain dreams anymore, don't you understand, what you think will only make you miserable, and won't let you get the satisfaction you want, is the desire for power so great for you?" Is it too big for you to forsake your people, your father and your brothers, and all things? ”
Hearing Jielan's words like this, Yu Qing did not feel guilty in his heart, but stimulated him even more, after all, he is a man, a man who controls all desires, in front of a woman who has tried everything to make her marry him, how can he not maintain his last face, he only sneered: "If I lose today, I will either die or become a prisoner, is it very pleasant to be a prisoner?" Only the highest power is the best, you can get a lot of what you want, including a woman like you, it's a pity, it's a pity..."His eyes suddenly became sharp, and then with a wave of his right hand, the three hundred soldiers behind him attacked Yu Ning and them.
Seeing that he was obsessed, there was no need to continue to talk to him, he ordered the soldiers to go out, and immediately the two armies fought, and the battle began before this sacred and majestic hall, and the sound of fighting, weapons, screams, and falling to the ground were mixed together, and the hall was slowly soaked in blood.
Jielan looked at this fight, looking at the person in front of her who she once thought was familiar but extremely unfamiliar, and she felt very lonely in her heart, why did people become like this? Are those rights and desires really that important?
More and more people fell, blood flowed down, staining the jade path, and in such a world, he was so stubborn that it made people chill to stand there, unshaken, and did not regret what he had done.
Seeing that he was still like this, Yu Ning persuaded: "Until now, do you still think you are right?" ”
Yu Qing faced the Imperial Forest Army, which had only a few people left, smiled sadly, and said: "The master is laughing at you coward, even if you seize my position, you will always be just a city lord, and you will be at the mercy of this young monarch and the royal city for the rest of your life, for you, I feel very pitiful, as pitiful as my father, so I don't think it's wrong." ”
Yu Ning sighed, feeling that his brother Cheng had gone mad and lost his mind, no matter what he said at this time, it was meaningless, he slowly pulled out his sword, aimed at Yu Qing, and said: "Since Brother Cheng is still obsessed, Brother Cheng can't say anything anymore, draw the sword!" ”
Yu Qing sneered, slowly drew his sword, and aimed it at Yu Ning. Watching the two brothers embark on the road of duel, whether it is Qingzhan or Jielan or others, they all feel very sorry and helpless.
Perhaps peace is always covered with blood, and that blood also includes the blood of relatives.
