Chapter 270: The Flames of War
Two stunning women knelt in front of him.
Xu Jingmu didn't squint, walked in front of them, and threw down a fluttering sentence: "I have never regretted this." ”
Liu Yingying's tears slipped unconsciously, her hands covered her chest, and she felt a sharp pain.
The sharp pain seemed to come from the depths of the soul, and there was no intention of stopping.
"Sister, what should I do?"
Huang Cang's expression was dazed, and his hand was holding Liu Yingying's tears.
Xu Jing's decision was unexpected.
They still had a glimmer of hope before they came.
I hope that Xu Jing can see that they have had that part of the husband and wife, and can forgive them once.
But in the end, everything is just a fantasy, and it is impossible to achieve it.
"Let's go."
Liu Yingying barely stood up with the help of yellow rice.
The body is still shaking.
"But, when I came, ......."
Huang Cang remembered that the two of them had come before, and the young people in the group were all eager to see each other.
This time, in order to escape back from the capital, the family made a great sacrifice.
Those who are young and old are all left in the capital.
Only the two women fled with a group of immature children, the oldest of whom was no more than fourteen and the youngest of seven or eight.
Among them, the hardships and dangers are not enough for outsiders, but they can make the two of them have a little more responsibility for the now crumbling family.
"These are all sins committed by us, and I can probably only eat them."
Liu Yingying shook her head slightly, and a mouthful of blood came out of the corner of her mouth.
"Sister!"
Looking at Liu Yingying's posture, Huang Cang looked flustered, and grabbed Liu Yingying's hand unconsciously aggravated.
"It's okay, it's just some bruising."
Liu Yingying said this, but in fact, the angina was already about to die.
"Ugh."
Huang Cang helped Liu Yingying staggered away from the East Palace.
"Why bother? Although there is something wrong with these two people, His Majesty should know that the current Liu and Huang families have long been left with only a group of children. ”
"If Your Majesty gives great grace, you will definitely serve Your Majesty to the death."
Concubine Xiao on Xu Jing's side sighed.
Regarding the romance between Xu Jing and the two women, Concubine Xiao has heard a little.
In the past, the two had a dewy marriage with Xu Jing, and it shouldn't be like this.
"If everyone is like this, should I not be the emperor?"
Xu Jing looked indifferent and asked lightly.
"It's the concubine who talks a lot, and I ask Your Highness not to blame."
Concubine Xiao bowed her head slightly and replied carefully.
"It doesn't have to be like that, but it doesn't need to be mentioned again."
Xu Jing turned around and left without the slightest hesitation.
Concubine Xiao just sighed slightly, and did not persuade again.
After all, this is still a grudge between Xu Jing and Liu Huang, and she should not have interfered in politics as a concubine.
In the next few days, these wealthy clans who fled back to the capital were bleeding heavily, and handed over the last of their family resources to Xu Jing in exchange for a chance to survive.
And when the gold and silver came into Xu Jing's hands, they were immediately converted into military salaries and rations, which were used to aid Anxi this time.
February 15, stunned.
The winter snow melts and everything recovers.
The capital is covered by haze and ushered in dazzling sunshine.
On this day, the Great Snow Dragoon had rushed to the vicinity of Anxi, just waiting for accurate information to meet the foreign enemy.
"General Hui, there is news."
Hou, the champion sitting in the center, looked at the returning Tiansu Star and waited for a reply.
"How?"
Jiang Wujian nodded and motioned for him to speak.
"General Hui, Diaoyutai has not fallen now. However, the Tianshan army seems to have expected it. ”
"It did not attack to the death, but dispersed its forces to wreak havoc all over Anxi."
"Now there are three places in Suining and Hezhou that have not been conquered for the time being. The rest of the defenses have fallen. ”
Tian Suxing replied in a low voice.
As he walked along the way, all he could see was the corpses on the ground, the scorched earth from the burning of houses, and the women who had been killed and hung everywhere.
These women were covered in blood, and the torture they endured before death was far beyond ordinary imagination.
On the way, not a single figure was seen.
"Didn't you see anyone on the way?"
Jiang Wuji's voice was low, and a wave of anger was hidden.
"I have never met General Hui. Come to think of it, these Tianshan troops are implementing a scorched earth policy. ”
Tian Suxing shook his head and replied.
The so-called scorched-earth policy is a mad act that knows that it is impossible to take the place for itself.
All the local people were slaughtered, the local finances were swept away, and all the cattle, sheep and livestock were taken away.
Leave no sustainable resources for the local area.
"Keep exploring!"
Jiang Wuji's hand holding the knife clenched tightly and nodded.
And the generals standing on his side also looked sad, and there was anger circulating in their bodies.
"General, shall we go straight to the three cities to help, or will we scatter and search for the traces of those dog thieves?"
Tiansu Xing left, and Tiangangxing couldn't wait to stand up and ask.
"Wait!"
Jiang Wujian slowly closed his eyes and replied.
"General, we can't wait! If these beasts are allowed to continue to wreak havoc, the people of this land will surely suffer! ”
Tian Suxing hurriedly said, unable to sit idly by for a moment.
"This place is complicated, and the Tianshan army is even more numerous."
"If you rush to pursue, nine times out of ten, you will die."
Jiang Wuji's voice trembled, and he said slowly.
"Death is death! As soldiers, we owe it to our country. Let us sit back and watch the Tianshan Mountains rage, we will never be able to do it! ”
Tian Mengxing also stood up and was about to speak.
"I naturally know the heart of the two of you."
"But have the two of them ever thought about this, this follower? Which of them doesn't have a wife or children at home? ”
"Sending troops so rashly, isn't it sending them to death?"
"Who wouldn't want to die in battle to repay their country? But if you die unclear, don't you feel wronged? ”
Jiang Wujian raised his head, looked at the two of them and asked in a low voice.
The two of them were so red that they were asked by Jiang Wuji, and they wanted to refute but couldn't come up with any reason.
I could only stand back in place as if deflated, bowing my head and not saying a word.
"General, there is a Tianshan army ten miles away!"
After a while, the Heavenly Speed Star Sect would go and return, kneeling in front of Jiang Wujian and shouting.
"How many."
Jiang Wujian asked in a low voice.
"About 20,000 people."
The soldier whispered.
"Where's the Sky Star?"
Jiang Wujian asked again.
"The Commander, the Commander is entangled with you."
The subordinate from the Sky Speed Star hesitated for a moment before replying.
"Nonsense! Keep up now! ”
"Tianmengxing, Tiangangxing and the two divisions of Tiangang Star are the first to rush!"
Jiang Wujian roared with anger on his face.
"Order! The two commanders of the Heavenly Speed Star and the Heavenly Fierce Star immediately mounted their horses and headed to their respective military camps.
After a short time, 5,000 fast horsemen separated from the army and went straight to the place where the Sky Speed Star was located.
"Kill!"
When the two of them arrived, the Tiansu Star Division had already collided with the 20,000 Tianshan army.
The first part of the Heavenly Speed Star was nearly four times less than the enemy army, and it still relied on its mobility to kill and kill in this chaotic army several times.
"Good boy! Dare not wait for the two brothers! ”
The two commanders of Tianmengxing and Tiangangxing arrived and shouted at Tiansuxing in the chaos.
"Haha, two brothers, let's see who can kill more people while I'm waiting!"
Sky Star grabbed the reins and laughed.
