Chapter 569: The End of the War
At this time, the overall situation should have been decided, but in the face of the respect of a general like Ming Weijun, Lin Yi did not have any joy or pride.
He didn't even feel any sense of relaxation.
Before that, when the battle of Zhongli was not over, he asked himself not to think about the casualties of his subordinates, but when the overall situation of this battle was timed, he had to face the casualties of the defenders in the city, and the casualties of the Tiece army.
At this time, most of the living Southern Dynasty people in this Zhongli City should be on this section of the remnant wall where he is located.
But many familiar faces are not here.
Xue Jiu is not among these living Tiece troops.
None of the young cultivators who had volunteered to join the Tie Ce Army before were among them, including Situ Nian, who had a grudge against Xiao Jin, and they were not among the people who were still alive.
The stupid and stupid Tang Nianda of the Sword Pavilion is also dead.
At a glance, there were only more than ten people left in the entire Sword Pavilion.
Of the three hundred sergeants of the Tiece Army who were the first to march with him and whose names he remembered, there were few who were still alive at this time.
He even felt a deep sense of shame at this time.
Because he knew very well that the reason why Rong Yi and Xiao Suxin and the others were able to live was not only because they were cultivators themselves, they were more powerful than ordinary sergeants, but also because in the previous battles, he always subconsciously dealt with the enemies who posed a mortal threat to them as soon as possible.
"You don't have to go over and comfort him. ”
Chen Baoyun knew what he was thinking just by looking at the look on his face, but just before she could move, Chen Qianru's voice sounded in her ears.
"Strategist. She looked at Chen Qianru with some puzzlement.
"This is the process that every strong general must go through. ”
Chen Qianru looked at her and said softly: "Only by being tortured by enough pain will he grow up better and do better in the future battle array." ”
Chen Baoyun fell silent.
After being silent for a while, she looked at Chen Qianru and said with some emotion: "So I always feel that my brother is too indifferent and doesn't have the blood of a young man, is it because he has experienced too many things like this?"
Chen Qianru smiled faintly, "He has fought dozens of battles in the border army, and of course he has experienced a lot." Now Lin Yi knows very well that every bit of his glory contains the blood of his subordinates who died in battle, and the Chen family can get to this position in the Southern Dynasty at this time, I don't know how many bones and blood are piled up, and any decision he makes, of course, cannot be purely out of his blood. ”
......
Cao Jingzong's figure moved and landed on the wall.
He had already saluted Lin Ling, and his gaze naturally fell on the rest of the people.
He was slightly startled and saw an acquaintance.
"Old Wei, your life is really hard. He looked at Wei Guanxing and couldn't help but say.
Wei Guanxing smiled bitterly and said, "I really didn't expect to survive." ”
"Such an immortal feat is enough for you to brag about it for a lifetime. Cao Jingzong looked at the wounds on his body that were still oozing blood, and said seriously: "It's really worth it." ”
"You also know that I'm not here for a long time, what about General Wei?" asked Wei Guanxing.
"He's going to settle an account on the way, and he should be there soon. Cao Jingzong glanced at the upstream and said.
At this time, the water level in Huaishui has become normal, but compared with usual, the water flow is still very fast.
When Wei Guanxing, Lin Yi and the others looked upstream, several black spots had already faintly appeared on the black surface in the distance.
Lin Yi's eyesight was far beyond that of ordinary cultivators, and he quickly saw that there were several ordinary big boats going down the river, but his brows immediately furrowed deeply.
"What, does the Mingwei border army also like to use enemy corpses to deter the other party?" he couldn't help but ask Cao Jingzong.
The vast majority of the rest of the people on the city wall still couldn't see what was on those boats, so they didn't understand why Lin Yi asked this, but Cao Jingzong was very clear.
He turned his head to look at Lin Yi and said seriously: "Those heads hanging outside the edge of the boat are not from the Northern Wei Dynasty, but the heads of all the adult men of the Guojiamen valve in Fushui County of our Southern Dynasty. ”
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment.
Although the vast majority of the people on this city wall could not see the details of those ships clearly, they already understood what was going on after listening to Cao Jingzong's words.
Wei Guanxing smiled faintly, "Sure enough, it's General Wei's style." ”
"The Northern Wei Dynasty and I are enemies, no matter what they do, it is an internal matter, but as a member of the Southern Dynasty, the water, soil and wealth of the Southern Dynasty raised this group of people, but it is an unforgivable sin to be ungrateful and provide these Northern Wei people with big ships. ”
Cao Jingzong also said lightly, "If you don't punish it severely, many gate valves will naturally be mercenary." If there were no these big ships, with General Lin and your Tie Ce army in charge, they might not be able to break the city so quickly, and the Guo family of Fushui County, they would naturally be responsible for the many people who died in Zhongli City. ”
Lin Yi took a deep breath, he didn't say anything for a while.
Those clippers rode the wind and waves, and soon broke into everyone's realization clearly.
A ship at the head of the ship, the hull of which has countless red stripes.
The heads hung overboard, and the blood dripping from these heads stained the hull red.
Suddenly, the cries of many people sounded in the Northern Wei camp on the north bank, which had already killed the city with a ball of hot porridge.
A group of people who had already fled up a high slope suddenly sat down on the ground and began to cry out heartbreakingly.
Cao Jingzong looked at those people and sneered: "Those people should be the people of the Guo family, except for those who came with those ships....These people have been in these armies of the Northern Wei Dynasty for a long time, and these Northern Wei troops can arrive here unnoticed, I am afraid it is also because of the Guo family." ”
"The Guo family of Fushui County is the number one family in Fushui County, so if you take the opportunity to kill all the young and middle-aged men, General Wei will not be afraid of criticism from the DPRK and China?" Qi Zhuji stepped forward and asked softly with some concern.
"With this Zhongli victory, it is enough to suppress such criticism. Cao Jingzong's sneer became a little thicker, "Otherwise, the saint is soft-hearted, I don't know how many Guo family children will survive, and I don't know how much trouble will arise in the future." ”
In fact, no one criticized, and every surviving Southern Dynasty sergeant looked at the hideous-looking head hanging outside the ship, and they all felt very happy, just like Qi Zhuji, and they were just worried that a general like Wei Rui would not have the same experience as Wei Guanxing.
"General Wei should have something to say to you. ”
Chen Baoyun came to Lin Yi's side, and she said softly: "While you still have time, I want to talk to you about something alone." ”
Of course, it was impossible for Lin Yi to refuse.
When he and Chen Baoyun walked to the side, the rest of the people naturally moved out of the way, making room for them.
"Xiao Shufei has always been the kind of person who is cold-faced and warm-hearted. ”
Chen Baoyun's first sentence made Lin Yi stunned.
