In the dead of night, the great Yong'an fell into a deep silence.

When he was a child, most of them had fallen into a deep sleep, but Xiao Chen still had no sleep.

Sitting on the city wall, which had been washed gray by time and rain, Xiao Chen took out the war letter in his arms.

The content of the battle book is simple and clear, he Ye Zhichu will attack the city on a large scale tomorrow, and he wants Xiao Chen to prepare. The silence before the storm is about to come, and there is a sense of urgency that is almost suffocating.

Regarding the purpose of Ye Zhichu's war letter, Xiao Chen thought of two possibilities, one is that Ye Zhichu has the chance to win, which is a psychological deterrent to Xiao Chen, and the other is that long before the Rebellion of the Ten Kingdoms, in fact, the mode of war is not what it is now.

At that time, the war was still full of etiquette and rules, and even the people who joined the army were mostly noble children, ordinary poor families, and they had no chance to serve the country at all.

Before the war, it was necessary to issue a war letter and agree on a place to fight a decisive battle far from the town, the purpose of which was not to disturb the people.

And the battle is also interesting, but if a soldier is injured, the other side must stop attacking and let him leave the battlefield safely. Even if the opponent is defeated, he can only pursue a kilometer.

The war that can be handed down to the war, the formalized battle, is also completely broken with the appearance of one person.

And this person is Ji Wushuang who is now in Xiao Chen's Mansion.

During the Rebellion of the Ten Kingdoms, Li Dang and Ji Wushuang were ordered to fight in Shangyuan City, and Ji Wushuang killed 70,000 defeated generals, so far the pattern of war in the world has changed.

From the intelligence, Xiao Chen learned that Ye Zhichu was a remnant of the Yue Kingdom that had died in the Ten Kingdoms. At the beginning, Ji Wushuang destroyed the way of war, and the most angry was the Vietnamese army and people.

It's a pity that the ambitious lords of the major powers were soon influenced by Ji Wushuang's war tune of killing and conquering, not only did they not blame Ji Wushuang, but they followed Ji Wushuang's tactics in the follow-up battles.

At this point, war became a means of bloody plunder and conquest.

Anything, once free from the shackles of rules, becomes extremely terrible, and war is exactly that.

Therefore, the rebellion of the Ten Kingdoms at the beginning would lead to the displacement of hundreds of people in the world.

Now that he sees the war book again, Xiao Chen's heart is full of emotion and sighs, it is no longer a war prelude that once symbolized going through the motions, but a clarion call for a hell storm.

Victory, Yong'an survives, defeat, Yong'an is in ashes.

But no matter whether they win or lose, it is destined that countless people will stay in this seemingly peaceful and quiet land forever tonight.

Standing up, Xiao Chen felt a little numb in his legs, and after rejuvenating his muscles and bones, Xiao Chen walked down the city tower and walked towards the white wall.

The misty drizzle hit Xiao Chen's cheeks, making Xiao Chen, who was originally a little sleepy, suddenly sober up a lot.

He wanted to see the soldiers, because when he saw him tonight, it might be goodbye.

As soon as he walked down the city tower, Xiao Chen found Guan Chi's figure.

At this moment, Guan Chi was holding a mace, leaning against the city wall, his expression was a little lonely and complicated.

"What are you?" Xiao Chen asked.

"I'm wondering, I'm here to help you, whether it's right or wrong." Looking at Xiao Chen, Guan Chi replied in a deep voice.

Xiao Chen didn't answer this question, but said solemnly: "Come with me." ”

The two of them walked on the avenue built of bluestone with heavy hearts, and they did not say a word in tacit understanding.

"Yong'an's final battle is coming." Xiao Chen, who was in the lead, said suddenly.

Regarding Ye Zhichu's battle book, Xiao Chen almost didn't know anything about it, except for informing Wu Liang and asking him to prepare. Xiao Chen deliberately arranged this way, firstly, in order not to cause panic in the city, and secondly, to deceive himself, the tranquility of Yong'an can be a moment longer.

"I know!" Guan Chi raised his head and said, "On the way to Yong'an, I heard the news from the Qianguo side. ”

Xiao Chen didn't speak, judging from the situation in front of him, Guan Chi didn't tell anyone else the news, at this point, Xiao Chen was still a little grateful to the red-faced man in front of him.

Lowering his head, Guan Chi continued: "After I killed the man in black under the white wall today, I have been thinking about everything I have done, whether it is right or wrong, I come to help you, it means that I want to kill the people of Qianguo, but if I don't help you, the people of Qianguo will kill you again." No matter how you look at it, getting involved is not the right choice. ”

"Regret it?"

"I don't regret the decision I made. I'm just feeling sorry for the innocent lives that are about to pass away. ”

Xiao Chen sighed and said: "War, that's it, it's inevitable. ”

"In the past, when Wei was invaded by Xia, there were old ministers in the court who wrote a letter of condemnation to condemn Xia Guo's unkind and unrighteous behavior. As a result, the Wei State lost countless cities one after another, and whenever I thought of it when I was a child, I couldn't have a good impression of those rotten Confucians. ”

"But now that the war of Yong'an is imminent, I think again, if a letter of condemnation can avoid this war, it would be great."

Guan Chi grinned, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I don't understand, this person lives well, why is there always someone who likes to joke with people's lives, just like you kid, obviously something that can be solved just by opening the city gate, but it has to be so tense." ”

Xiao Chen was stunned, shook his head and said: "I and Qianguo, after all, are different, I am here to protect my family and defend the country, and they are to invade other people's homes." ”

"Opening the city gate can certainly usher in a moment of peace, but after that, there must be countless people pointing at my Xiao Chen's backbone and scolding me for being a bad seed, I was originally a gentleman, I don't care if others scold me, but I don't want to die and be scolded by future generations, and when I meet two grumpy people, maybe they will dig a grave for me, that is a big fuck."

"But the Qianguo is different, the empress is ambitious, so she is ready to sit on her throne with the affairs of the Wei State. It's just that for the sake of some people, hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be sacrificed at every turn, and they are called absurd. ”

As they spoke, they had already walked up to the white wall.

The soldiers of the reserve battalion stood upright on the city tower, and after several days of training, this reserve battalion had begun to have the temperament of an iron-blooded man.

Looking out from the white wall, you can see that the direction of Yangnan City is brightly lit, and a huge flag embroidered with the word "leaf" is fluttering in the autumn wind.

The sky was drizzling, and the black clouds were dense, and there was a sense of depression that the black clouds were about to destroy the city. Obviously, the heavy rain, which had been stagnant for a few days, was coming soon.

"It's been five days, and it's time for this final showdown to come."

Guan Chi clenched the mace in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Hey, don't talk about it, it's best to live......"
