Lu Changfeng was taken to their tent, and several doctors in the barracks were dropped here.

There was only enough room for one person to hide in his cellar, and the occupant gave up the chance to live, but chose to protect Lu Changfeng.

Xiao Ce and the soldiers waiting outside were waiting for Lu Changfeng to wake up, but in just one day, the rumors in the outside world were already full of gossip, most of them were rumored that when King Xiao Ce passed by Jinling City, in order to enhance the momentum of the Luoyang army, he lived to give the defenders of Tianwei City a dismount, and even said that he was trying to repay the humiliation of being imprisoned at that time, so he connived at his subordinates to slaughter the city. Xiao Ce would never give such an order.

Li Hanning also knew in her heart that such rumors would be self-defeating as long as the truth was found, and all the variables were on Lu Changfeng, who was still unconscious, she really hoped that Lu Changfeng could survive and wake up this time.

Right now, Xiao Ce was discussing countermeasures with other generals in the camp tent, and the other patrolling soldiers came and went, all walking between the camp tents.

The soldiers who had been reluctant to cooperate with him all the time now knelt in the courtyard after hearing about the matter of Jinling City, and those who couldn't kneel in the courtyard had already knelt on the long street outside the mansion gate, and looked at the group of people in the past from a distance, all of whom were asking Mo Yunxi to send troops to attack Xiao Ce, Mo Yunxi just sat quietly in the study and did not talk.

"Master, I don't understand, obviously it took so much thought, now that they are all outside, they are all willing to go into battle to kill the enemy, and die for the court, why doesn't the master plan to reuse them?"

There was a hot tea next to the bamboo slip that Mo Yunxi was holding in his hand, which was steaming hot, and his eyes were shining through the few wisps of smoke.

"It's because it's going to be reused, so let them kneel for a while first."

The attendants behind him still felt that they didn't understand when they heard this, but since his master came out of the mountain, he had never made a wrong decision, and he naturally believed in their son.

The attendant on the side was silent for a moment, and then asked:

There is one more thing that the subordinates don't understand, why did you want General Feng Zhe to do it in the early morning, next to Xiao Ce's soldiers and horses, if they find out, wouldn't it be a waste of success? ”

Mo Yunxi was stunned, he naturally couldn't bear the matter of slaughtering the city, no matter what, those people were innocent, they should not be involved in the dispute between the court and the rebels, those people did not owe the court, it was the court that owed them first, these Mo Yunxi knew in his heart that he just had no better way at the moment, the defenders allocated to him by the court were not enough to fight against the 100,000 elites in Xiao Ce's hands, and there was no way to let those soldiers under Qi An obey the public in the short term, this was the best and most effective way for them at the moment, So if he had to choose one, he would have to be sorry for them.

As for picking that time, it is also because he knows Xiao Ce very well, Xiao Ce has always been soft on the enemy, but it is different for the people, the fire in Jinling City will burn to nothing if it goes later, but Xiao Ce's soldiers and horses can also collect their corpses at that hour, according to the customs near Jinling City, after death, he must always be buried for peace, this is still the truth that Qi'an's soldiers told him.

Now seeing that the hour is almost up, Mo Yunxi put down the bamboo slip in his hand, and in the eyes of others, his embarrassment is almost the hour, Mo Yunxi stood up, turned around and glanced at the attendant beside him:

"It's almost time, let's go meet them."

*

Here, Xiao Ce was discussing with several generals in the camp tent to arrange the next deployment, and someone outside opened the camp tent and came in.

"Your Highness, General Lu is awake, can you go over and take a look later?"

It was Xiao Ce who sent them to watch from the sidelines, and once Lu Changfeng woke up, he came over to tell him, Xiao Ce immediately put down what he was doing when he heard this, he quickly stood up and glanced at the generals in the camp tent:

"You discuss the rest with the military division, and Han Ning will follow me to see General Lu."

Li Hanning naturally wanted to take a look at the situation on Lu Changfeng's side, so he replied: "Yes." ”

Here, Xiao Ce and Li Hanning had already come outside his tent, standing in place and watching the blood and water that the doctors had cleaned Lu Changfeng's wounds and cleaned out of the camp tent one after another, but after he woke up, he didn't cry out of pain, nor did he wail, for such a serious injury on his body, he didn't even say a word, and the doctor on the side couldn't help but sigh, if he had these injuries on someone else, he wouldn't have known how many times he had fainted.

After a while, Xiao Ce opened the tent and came in followed by Li Hanning, those doctors knew his identity, and when they saw him, they were busy saluting, Xiao Ce immediately waved his hand when he saw it, signaling that they didn't need to be polite at this time, for them to save people is the most important thing.

Xiao Ce walked over from among the busy doctors, sat next to the soft couch and looked at Lu Changfeng and said:

"How are you feeling?"

Lu Changfeng already knew that it was Xiao Ce who saved him again.

He was now covered in wounds, and his face was naturally bloodless.

"You don't have to get up, when we were waiting outside the tent, the doctor had already told me about your situation, it was your own life, and you might not be able to survive if someone else was so seriously injured, so you don't need to thank me."

Xiao Ce had already guessed what Lu Changfeng was going to do next, and his words blocked everything he wanted to say next, in Xiao Ce's eyes, it was naturally Lu Changfeng's fate to live until they found the cellar.

"In any case, if I hadn't met His Highness this time, I don't think I would have survived now."

Li Hanning glanced at a few doctors around him, the wounds on the patient's body had been bandaged now, Xiao Ce clearly wanted to talk to Lu Changfeng alone, those doctors were naturally smart people, Li Hanning was just a look, they quickly understood the meaning, quietly packed up their things, and quickly exited the tent, and now there were only three of them left in the tent.

Xiao Ce sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Lu Changfeng.

Lu Changfeng knew in his heart, of course he understood what Xiao Ce meant, Xiao Ce saved his life this time, and he really didn't have anything valuable on him except for the corresponding news:

"I know what His Royal Highness wants to ask, and I don't have anything I can't say, the cause of the incident is rumored outside, and I think His Royal Highness already knows it."

At that time, when they were still in Luoyang, the first military information was that Lu Changfeng had fallen off the cliff and died, and Qi An was beheaded by the imperial court, and his head was hung above the gate of Tianwei City as a warning.

But not all of the real things are like this, because they saw Lu Changfeng here.

Lu Changfeng seemed to recall the past, for him, every time he thought about it, he was full of regret and regret, for Qi An, he really didn't want to be loyal, Xiao Ce and Li Hanning looked at Lu Changfeng in front of him and sighed and said:

"It's a long story, the lord refused to believe me at that time, insisted on opening the city gate, although Mo Yunxi's people were a lot less than ours, but he used soldiers to surprise, he saw the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, and soon took the imperial court soldiers and horses to occupy the Tianwei City, the city has been lost, the imperial court army is greatly inspired, I think at that time we will not be able to take back the Tianwei City in a short period of time, but the lord does not believe it, and the other generals also persuaded him, while the foundation of the court is not stable, try again, I can't persuade him, and I don't want to watch the lord go to die, So I risked my life and disobeyed the military order, and then it should be Mo Yunxi who sent people to spread rumors everywhere, saying that I wanted to replace it, and said that the loss of Tianwei City at that time was related to me, I don't know how much the lord listened, in short, I was locked up in my own camp, and when I came out again, I had heard that they had suffered a big defeat and were going to withdraw the army, when I came out, there was chaos outside, Mo Yunxi sent a team of soldiers to arrest me and I wanted me to surrender, we killed all the way up the mountains on the edge of Jinling City, I fell, if it was the height of an ordinary mountain forest, I decided that there was no possibility of living again, but in those days of mountain rain, even the moss and moss on the mountain were covered with a thick layer, and I fell down and met the people of Jinling City I knew, they saved me, and found me a doctor in the city, and raised me for half a month. ”

They probably already knew the rest of the story.

"By the way, Your Highness, that family, is there really no one alive?"

Lu Changfeng looked at Xiao Ce, Xiao Ce shook his head, and he was the only one who survived the thousands of people in the entire Jinling City.

Lu Changfeng saw that he was silent, and naturally understood what he meant.

Xiao Ce naturally knew that everything he said just now was a past that he didn't want to recall, but Lu Changfeng still said it in order to maybe be able to help him, Xiao Ce couldn't bear it and looked at the person in front of him and said with relief:

"Although I couldn't save them, but their bodies are intact, and they didn't experience too much pain when they left, I have sent my men to bury them, just near Jinling City, if you feel better in the future, you can visit them."

Lu Changfeng lowered his head, but after a while, Li Hanning saw that his hands were stained with dripping tears, and his shoulders were shaking, the person who had never cried when the doctor was stitching, cleaning the wound, or even bandaging the wound, was now crying like a child.

If it weren't for the fact that before those soldiers slaughtered the city, they gave him the only cellar where they could hide, and the family would have survived at least one person, but they still chose to save Lu Changfeng.

Li Hanning knew what Lu Changfeng was thinking, the more this time, the more people would feel guilty, Lu Changfeng probably thought that Jinling City was slaughtered because of himself for a long time, Li Hanning looked at him and said:

"This is their choice, you don't have to feel guilty, if they look at you like this in the sky, they probably won't be happy, you are the general they saved with their own lives, Lu Changfeng, who I and His Royal Highness King Ming both know, we have to cheer up as soon as possible, because they can't die in vain, because we still have to avenge them."

Lu Changfeng's body shook.

Right.

Avenge.

Not only for himself, but also for the people in Jinling City.

"Your Highness."

When Lu Changfeng looked up at Xiao Ce, the look in his eyes had changed to a different look, becoming sharper:

"The people who slaughtered the city were also Mo Yunxi's people, those people were deliberately masked and wore black cloaks, but I knew that it was not the Luoyang Army, I had a long hand with them, and I would not forget the spears of those imperial court soldiers and horses."

But it's not just his words.

"This is what I hid close to me."

He pulled out a silver spear from his body, which was the physical evidence he had been carrying.

The imperial court soldiers and horses that Mo Yunxi brought this time were naturally different from the ordinary imperial court soldiers and horses, all of them he brought were elite, and the armor on his body and the cold spear head of the spear were all from the hands of famous craftsmen in Chang'an, so you can see it at a glance.

Xiao Ce thought for a moment and said, "I know there is something that may make it difficult for you, but right now this is the best way to reduce casualties." ”

"If there is a chance before the two armies fight, would you like to testify and tell your former soldiers what you saw happening in Jinling City?"

Lu Changfeng was stunned when he heard this: "Your Highness is saying that they are still alive?" ”

He had thought that those soldiers and horses, those former subordinates of his, should have died after that battle.

Li Hanning was worried that some things would be inconvenient to say as Xiao Ce, so he simply took the first step and said: "People outside are rumored that you and Qi An are dead, and they can only temporarily submit to the imperial court in desperation, since they have returned to the imperial court, most of them are their villagers in Jinling City, Mo Yunxi originally had no reason to move Jinling, and he wanted to push these things on Luoyang's head when he slaughtered the city." ”

Push on Xiao Ce's head.
