[Vol. 1] Section 172: The Death of Li Guang

------------

Wei Qing led the troops back through the desert, at such a moment, Wei Qing's heart was really relaxed, when he came, he had a long way to go, and when he returned, he was full of joy and sorrow.

The only regret in this battle is to go Yi Zhi Xian, Yi Zhi Xian is really fierce, when he and Yi Zhi Xian confronted each other, both sides had injuries and casualties were equal, but in the pursuit of the next day and night, won a lot, can not be said to be a big victory, but thousands of miles of fighting, can have such a record, at least can be handed over to the emperor.

Wei Qing was worried about the safety of his nephew Huo Quai's illness along the way, and ordered someone to go to investigate quickly, but there was no response, which made him even more worried, and his mood became a little solemn.

"Newspaper. Former general Li Guang and right general Zhao Shiqi asked to see. ”

When Wei Qing heard this, he knew that they were here to ask for guilt, so he sent someone to reply and asked the two of them to stand by in the camp and not have to come to see them.

Wei Qing ordered Li Guangdong to come out before the war, he was suspected of selfishness, and was more concerned about the overall situation, like Li Guang, a general who fought for several years, was more than brave, far from enough, did not know how to restrain the soldiers on weekdays, and only cared about fighting alone during the war, killing 1,000 enemies, and often losing 800 himself, and when he was the worst, he was wiped out and taken prisoner. Everyone knows that Yi Zhixian is notoriously cunning, and if he is allowed to fight Shan Yu first, if there is a mistake, it will seriously affect the overall situation of the war.

It is based on this that Wei Qing made adjustments in the forward before the war, in the eyes of Commander Wei, as long as Li Guang is blessed, he and Zhao Shiqi are still a strange army, if they can reach the battlefield as scheduled, Yi Zhixian and his iron cavalry will be difficult to fly.

What is disappointing is that Li Guang and Zhao Shiqi got lost in the desert and missed their appointment.

Thinking of tens of thousands of soldiers and Hu people fighting bloody battles for days, many soldiers fell there forever, but they returned in vain and achieved nothing. Thinking of this, Commander Wei's mood turned from sunny to cloudy, and his worry about his nephew and regret for leaving Yi Zhixian suddenly turned into anger towards Li Guang and others.

He was in a difficult mood, hesitated again and again, and finally called Changshi and ordered him to ask Li Guang why he got lost and why he missed the deadline?

As soon as Changshi was about to leave the account, Commander Wei called Changshi back again and told him to prepare some dry food and wine to bring with him, and to be careful not to hurt Li Guang's face while asking about the situation.

Changshi came to Li Guang's camp according to Commander Wei's instructions, put down the dry food and wine, Li Guang looked at it, and was confused, General Wei sang where he sang, after all, he didn't have any credit, and he wasted food and the expressions of the soldiers, and he could even get the general's wine and food.

After Changshi finished giving wine and food, he didn't leave immediately, and after chatting with some marginal words, he asked about Li Guang's loss.

When Li Guang heard this, he thought to himself, the fox's tail was finally exposed, Wei Qing, don't you want to ask the old man for the crime? The old man will give you a question that you don't know, if you want to kill or chop, listen to it.

Changshi saw that Li Guang didn't reply, and his expression was embarrassed, so he hurriedly explained to Li Guang, there is only one meaning to say, General Wei didn't blame you, he just wanted to report to the emperor.

But Li Guang doesn't think so, he is like a stuffy gourd now, no matter what you say in Changshi, I will not move.

Changshi saw that Li Guang was so toasting and not eating and drinking, shook his head, and walked away.

Wei Qing learned of Li Guang's attitude, this commander, who has always been known for his benevolence, was unexpectedly angry, he had no credit, and his attitude was not good. He didn't know that his anger would kill Li Guang.

Changshi came to Li Guang's camp again, this time he changed his face and reprimanded Li Guang strictly, but Li Guang still drank alcohol.

Changshi saw that Li Guang didn't fart, and knew that he couldn't explain to the general if he asked this old man, so he could only summon Li Guang's staff and deputy generals and ask them one by one.

Li Guang, who had been drinking alcohol, couldn't bear to embarrass his subordinates, stood up and shouted, "The captains are not guilty, it's all the fault of the old man, and the old man will report it." ”

After speaking, he walked out of the camp tent, looking at the vast desert, the sunset, and a sense of desolation crept into his heart.

Thinking that he fought at a young age, and now he is over the age of sixteen, in the past few decades, he has repeatedly made military exploits, his subordinates, his brothers, and his sons, there is no shortage of marquis, but he has never known what it is like to be a marquis.

In his opinion, this is a lifetime of shame, yes, he made a mistake, after the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, he privately received the seal of King Liang, killed eight hundred in the Pingqiang Rebellion in Longxi, and was repeatedly defeated, but his loyalty to the country, to the emperor, and to the court is something that can be seen every day. But now, a scribe can humiliate him, how can he swallow this breath.

He drank all the wine and smashed it to pieces, turned around and went back to the camp.

The tent was empty, and it seemed that the scribes had dispersed, and it was not known how they would tell the story and condemn themselves.

"Hmph, how can I stand such humiliation?"

Li Guang summoned the generals of the battalions, the faces of the generals of the battalions were not good-looking, and some of them still looked uneasy, Li Guang sighed and said, "The old man has fought with the Huns since he was a child, and there have been more than seventy small battles," Li Guang paused, and there were tears flashing in his eyes, and the generals felt a little wrong, this is not like what General Li said in ordinary times, but he couldn't say anything wrong for a while, so he could only continue to listen attentively, only to hear Li Guang touch the sword and say, "This time I am fortunate to be able to attack the Huns with the general, But the general made the old man go east, unfortunately lost his way, and missed the deadline, this is the will of God," Speaking of this, Li Guang's voice was already trembling slightly, he turned his back and secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, turned around, and said loudly, "The old man is sixty years old, how can he be humiliated by the sword and pen officer." ”

Li Guang's words revealed desolation, which infected the generals, most of them looked gloomy, worried about their future and fate, but they never noticed that the cold light in the tent flashed, and Li Guang had fallen in the tent.

The generals were stunned, they reacted, and immediately pounced, some pressed their hands on Li Guang's erect neck to stop the bleeding, and some hurriedly shook Li Guang and shouted, "Old general, old general." ”

Li Guang's swordsmanship is exquisite, coupled with the fact that he has made up his mind, he naturally will not leave a way for himself to live, and in an instant, a generation of famous generals Li Guang has passed away.

Sad, painful.

There was a cry in the tent, and the news of Li Guang's self-killing instantly spread throughout the entire barracks, and all the soldiers and soldiers were like five thunderbolts, kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly.

People who have received Li Guang's favor remember Li Guang's goodness, and they all shed tears for it, they remembered that Li Guang was honest and honest, not afraid of life and death, they remembered that Li Guang loved soldiers like a son and did not avoid spoons, and they remembered that Li Guang shared difficulties and blessings. Now, he's gone, he's really gone, and tears for him are also from the bottom of my heart.

Not only Li Guang's subordinates, but also the news of Li Guang's death spread everywhere, and the people, whether they knew him or not, shed tears for the loss of such a national name.

In the fourth year of Yuanzhan (119 BC), Li Guang was gone, he was really gone, he left with regret and humiliation, Li Guang's life was a life of fighting, a life of a hero.

Although he is often hot-headed, although he lacks political strategy, but no one can deny his merits, with him in the frontier, he is like a protective god, no longer afraid of the Huns' sword soldiers.

I believe that in another world, Li Guangfenghou will no longer be a dream.
