Chapter 388: Fire and Water Compatible
Dai Idiot gathered the remaining officers and soldiers, stood in front of Tao Ziyun in line, and then ordered his subordinates to count the number of people.
Tao Ziyun took a closer look at the officers and soldiers under Dai Idiot, in the place where he fought with the stun beast just now, there were many officers and soldiers lying there lifeless, but there were more dead stun beasts than officers and soldiers.
Tao Ziyun asked Dai Idiot with a gloomy face: "There are only so many people, are there any officers and soldiers who have asked for leave and have not participated in this operation?"
Dai said to Tao Ziyun ashamedly: "Brother Tao, I don't have enough ability to protect my soldiers, and many officers and soldiers have died in battle. The soldiers who did not take leave and did not come to the battle, the officers and soldiers who were wounded but did not die, all went out into battle with wounds, and there are so many of my men. ”
Tao Ziyun inquired about Liu Liuga's whereabouts dissatisfiedly: "What about Liu Liuga? Why didn't he go to battle with you? Where did he go to deal with something more important than resisting the stun beast?"
Dai Idiot replied to Tao Ziyun truthfully: "The matter of resisting the faint beast has always relied on my team, and Liu Liuga's arrival will not play much role." Therefore, as today, the stun beast came to attack again, and I led the troops to resist, and they were still discussing the government in the court. ”
At this time, Pan Xinjin came over with a note and reported: "Lord Dai! In this battle, 23 soldiers were killed in battle, and including the wounded, there are still more than 6,000 left! This is the list of those killed in battle. ”
Dai Idiot took the note and looked at it, then took out a stack of notes from his arms, folded the note just now, folded it and stuffed it back into his arms: "After returning to the court, let the emperor give compensation to the relatives of these soldiers." ”
Tao Ziyun asked Dai Idiot sternly: "How to deal with the scene here?"
Dai Zhi's mood was also heavy, and he earnestly told Tao Ziyun: "According to the custom, carry the dead officers and soldiers to the nearby woods and bury them, and throw the faint beasts into the sea, and the living faint beasts will not come ashore, and they will bury the dead faint beasts we threw into the sea to the bottom of the sea." ”
Pan Xinjin in front of them also heard Dai Idiot's words, and without waiting for Dai Idiot to give him another order, he turned around and led the officers and soldiers to clean up the mess.
Tao Ziyun solemnly said to Dai Idiot: "When you go on the expedition. With more than 8,000 people, now there are more than 2,000 people down, and I am very uneasy. Let's go to the woods over there, and when the living officers and soldiers carry the dead officers and soldiers there, we will help dig the pit together. ”
Dai nodded silently, and led the horse and Tao Ziyun to the grove not far away.
Tao Ziyun's bean soldiers still stood still. Lu Chahua hugged Tao Ruizi and greeted the officers and soldiers they had just brought from the warship to the land.
Because of the large number of people who did it, the dead officers and soldiers were quickly buried in the woods.
Tao Ziyun, who had anticipated the incident, asked Dai for confirmation and said: "The officers and soldiers who died in battle have always been like this. Nothing, just buried in the ground?"
Dai Idiot replied to Tao Ziyun ashamedly: "Yes, because I don't have the conditions to bury the soldiers." Speaking of which, I feel sorry for my soldiers. ”
"Alright. Let's see Liu Liuga together. Tao Ziyun said, walked out of the woods quickly, and beckoned Moss Yu and Lu Chahua to bring the new officers and soldiers over.
Dai Idiot's subordinates, the officers and soldiers brought by Tao Ziyun and the bean soldiers, lined up in formation outside the woods, followed Tao Ziyun and Dai Idiot one after the other, and rushed to the imperial city of Liyuan Kingdom.
Liu Liuga received a report from the soldiers guarding the door. Greeted him in a panic: "Brother Tao, I didn't expect you to come like this!"
"I came here by the emperor's order, and I brought three thousand officers and soldiers over to help you deal with the stun beast. Tao Ziyun explained his intention. Then he asked Liu Liuga rhetorically, "What about you, what are you busy doing in the palace?"
Liu Liuga said to Tao Ziyun embarrassedly: "Alas, don't mention it, I'm debating with the prime minister and my younger brother in the Jinluan Palace. Therefore, even when the stun beast came in again, there was no time to resist. Come into the Golden Luan Hall and see my father!"
Tao Ziyun asked the others to wait outside the imperial city, and he followed Liu Liuga into the Jinluan Palace. He showed the emperor's decree to King Liyuan and expressed his intention to King Liyuan.
The king of Liyuan Kingdom saw the holy decree and immediately ordered: "Great! Prime Minister Gu Zaixi and the prince Liu Liuhe hurriedly express their gratitude to Master Tao who came to help!"
The prime minister and Liu Liuga's younger brother, according to King Liyuan's request, respectfully expressed their gratitude to Tao Ziyun one after another.
Tao Ziyun asked the prime minister and Liu Liuga's younger brother in a friendly manner, "What did you discuss here just now?"
The prime minister and Liu Liuhe were still thinking about how to answer Tao Ziyun's question, because they didn't know whether Tao Ziyun's question was good or malicious.
In this way, Liu Liuga preemptively replied: "The prime minister put forward a plan and asked my father for the emperor's approval. Because the prime minister felt that the faint beasts of the Qianguo country had a very good habit of living, and they had to walk upside down! I think that if you change it like this, it will be very painful. But the Prime Minister stubbornly demanded that he learn that way of life, and with the help of my brother, he insisted on implementing that plan. So, I resolutely argued with her. ”
Tao Ziyun said to everyone seriously: "Actually, the idea of 'literati being light on each other' still has positive significance. Among the literati, each thinks that he is good, so he despises the other. The effect is to strive to do their own things well in the future, and strive to surpass the other party they despise. If you always feel that you can't do it, everything is the good of others, then you will breed unfavorable thoughts of admiring foreign countries, and thus cut off your positive and enterprising heart. ”
Liu Liuga said to Tao Ziyun in surprise: "Tao Gongzi is right! We don't advocate learning the living habits of faint beasts, you came over this time, and you helped me with this!"
Tao Ziyun said to Liu Liuga suspiciously, "Don't you have the immortal art of spitting out the water of a river when you drink water?" Moreover, you can spit out the wine of a river after drinking wine, I once gave you a wine gourd, and when you drink strong wine, you can spit it out and light a fire, so as to burn those faint beasts, why don't you make good use of it?"
Liu Liuga said to Tao Ziyun aggrievedly: "Brother Tao, you don't know, those stun beasts also have magic, in the past few years, they are no longer afraid of water, nor are they afraid of fire! ”
"Alas, it is said that 'water and fire are incompatible', but I didn't expect that the faint beast that is not afraid of water can not be afraid of fire at the same time. So, what are they afraid of?" Tao Ziyun couldn't help but sigh. (To be continued......)
