Chapter 13 I'd rather die than surrender
Qingluan was picked up by Su Changan from the medical hall, and Su Changan was blasted out by the people in the medical hall. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After diagnosing Su Changan, the old doctor who was highly respected in Xijiang City gave the same answer as the doctor in Linyang Town.
Therefore, Qingluan almost pulled out her sword as well.
But fortunately, this time Su Changan was prepared, so he stopped her in time, and did not frighten the old man who looked like he was not too old.
It's just that unlike last time, this old man is no longer alone, and his apprentices and medicine boys are naturally angry when they see this scene, so they unite to drive Su Changan out.
"Why did you stop me!" as soon as he walked out of the medical hall, Qingluan asked with an angry face.
Su Changan looked at her very seriously, couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and said: "People just speak truthfully, what's wrong." ā
"......" Qingluan's face suddenly lowered when he heard this, and he was silent and stopped talking.
Su Changan knew that she was worried about herself, and she couldn't bear it, so she hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, didn't that man say that he has a way to save me?"
If Su Changan was still a little skeptical of his words before, but after knowing his name, he had actually recognized his remarks, and coming to the medical hall was nothing more than an explanation for himself or Qingluan.
And this trust is not because of anything else, but because of this name - Guancang Sea!
The first god general of Great Wei, the general of victory and evil, watch the sea!
Qingluan nodded, turned his head to look at Su Changan, and said, "I want to go with you." ā
The firmness in her eyes made some of the thoughts that Su Changan had just risen melt at that time, and he nodded and responded with a smile: "En." ā
The City Lord's Mansion is naturally a place that everyone in Xijiang City knows about.
Su Changan and Qingluan just found some random people to ask, and then found this place.
And the god general seemed to have expected this situation early in the morning, and his lieutenant general also waited at the door for a long time, and when Su Changan and the two appeared at the street entrance, he greeted them, and without saying too much, he led the two into the mansion.
Although the city lord's mansion in Xijiang is not as good as the prince's mansion in Beilan City, it can also be called magnificent.
Entering the gate, there is a wide garden at the entrance, which is full of life in the spring breeze.
After passing the courtyard and walking another hundred and ten steps, I arrived at a study.
The deputy general leaned sideways and invited Su Changan and the others to enter.
And Su Changan didn't doubt him, pushed the door and walked in with Qingluan.
The first god general of the Great Wei, the study of the city lord of Xijiang City will naturally not be small.
On the desk in the room were neatly placed the four treasures of the study, which looked extremely valuable, but there was a little dust on them, as if their owners had not used them for a long time.
And their owners really don't look like people who will use them often, at least Su Changan thinks so.
At this moment, Guan Canghai was sitting on a low couch on the side, spraying a finely made jade bowl in his hand, and couldn't stop taking out grape-sized green fruits from it and putting them in his mouth. With each one in his mouth, he would close his eyes and chew on it, looking intoxicated, as if he was tasting the most delicious food in the world.
For the arrival of Su Changan and the others, there was no surprise on his face, but he put the things in his hand on the desk beside him with some reluctance, and waved at Su Changan with a smile on his face, signaling him to come over.
Su Changan naturally sat on the other side of the low couch, while Qingluan stood very obediently on the side.
"I have a request. Su Changan said straight to the point.
Guan Canghai thought it was very funny, this young man could still talk to him so humbly and without being arrogant after knowing his name, he had not seen such an interesting young man for many years. He smiled and put another green fruit in his mouth.
"Tell me about it. ā
"You've got to heal me first!"
Hearing this, Guan Canghai nodded without thinking about it, "This is natural, otherwise, going to the gate in your current state is no different from sending you to death." ā
Su Changan was stunned, he couldn't imagine that the man would agree to his request so easily, he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "You're not afraid that I will leave after you heal me?"
"Who do you think I will give you a chance to escape before I send you to Laiyun City?" Guan Canghai smiled disapprovingly, "You can rest assured, I will heal you tomorrow." ā
Su Changan nodded, although he was seriously injured in his body, he was not in a hurry at this time.
"By the way, boy, you haven't told you what your name is?" asked Guan Canghai suddenly.
In the two or three months that he came to Xijiang City, he coerced and used to pull up a troop, and among the rangers recruited, there were not none of them who were stronger than Su Chang'an, but only Su Chang'an made him feel extremely interesting, so he couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
But Su Changan was panicked, now that the wanted warrant of the imperial court has been issued, his real name is naturally unusable, and he was suddenly asked about his name, and he panicked, and casually said the first name he thought of: "Nanyuan." ā
"Nanyuan? Guan Canghai pursed his lips and glanced at Qingluan behind Su Changan again. "What about your lady?"
"Jade. Su Changan was in a cold sweat, since he was already talking nonsense, let's talk nonsense to the end.
He didn't want to talk about such a thing anymore, so he changed his conversation and asked, "Can you tell me a thing or two about the situation in Laiyun City?" ā
Guan Canghai naturally saw that Su Changan had a lot to hide about his identity, and he didn't even want to mention it, but he didn't break it, after all, who in this world didn't write secrets?
"Do you know the situation outside the gate now?" asked Guan Canghai rhetorically.
Su Changan thought about it seriously, and then went through the things that he had heard about these days.
"Yuanyun Pass was lost, King Wu retreated to Xiling, and Beitongxuan defended Yongning, and tasted defeat repeatedly. ā
Guan Canghai nodded noncommittally when he heard this, and said: "Yuanyun Pass has fallen into the hands of the barbarians, not to mention, the Yongning guarded by Beitongxuan is in the hinterland of Xiliang, and it is also the last pass of Xiliang. ā
"Although Beitongxuan has repeatedly tasted defeat in Yongning Pass, after all, it is a natural danger for Yongning to rely on Zangyun Mountain and Langya Mountain to build, as long as Beitongxuan is willing to defend to the death, as long as the Wang Zhu of the nine major clans of the barbarian clan does not make a move, it is not impossible for him to hold on for another year and a half. ā
As long as the barbarians are willing to make a long-distance attack, bypassing Langya Mountain from the north and attacking Laiyun, they can cut the grain road between Yongning and Xiling, and turn this Yongning into a lonely city, which can be broken in a few months!"
"And I have already received the news that within a month, the barbarians will definitely attack Laiyun!"
"So you've been recruiting troops since you came to Xijiang, and that's why you've been recruiting troops?" asked Su Changan.
When he came to the city lord's mansion, he inquired about what he had done during this period of time, which was nothing more than trying to extract people from the gentry royal family in Xijiang City for all kinds of reasons and rushed to Xiliang. Now it seems that he has been prepared for the matter of Laiyun City.
"Yes. "Look at the sea and bow your head.
"Then you're going back then?"
"No, it won't. Then someone else will lead you. But this time he shook his head.
"Why?" Su Changan couldn't help but wonder a little, since Lai Yun was a big matter, and Guan Canghai was so keen on this matter, why didn't he go into battle in person? Or was he just a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death?
"I have to stay here and guard the Xijiang. Guan Canghai replied.
"Defend the Xijiang?" Su Changan felt strange, and he couldn't help but ask again: "Xiling and Yongning both have natural dangers to rely on, if you don't guard Xiling, you don't go to guard Yongning, why do you want to guard Xijiang?
Guan Canghai shook his head, stood up, and said leisurely.
"Yongning is followed by Xiliang, after Xiling is Xijiang, and after Xijiang is Chang'an. ā
"If you lose Yongning, you will die in Xiliang, and if you lose Xiling, you will die in the Western Regions. But after losing the Xijiang River, the barbarians drove straight down to take Chang'an, but it was the world that died. ā
"And I don't worry about who the world that my ancestors have laid down, so I can only guard it myself. ā
Su Changan still doesn't understand. He asked again: "Then why don't you join forces with Beitongxuan and Fu 3,000 soldiers, so the chances of victory are greater." ā
"The odds of winning? The whole twelve stars of the nine major clans of the barbarian son have died, and I have poured the strength of the Great Wei to the whole country, how can I have half a chance of winning?"
Su Changan's body shook at that time, and he said in a daze: "Since you can't keep it, why do you have to keep it?"
Guan Canghai glanced at him, and the smile on his face instantly converged.
"War is losing, fleeing is surrendering. ā
"Then I look at the sea. ā
"I'd rather die. ā
"I'd rather fall. ā
