Between heaven and earth, it seems that at this moment, the sound of horse hooves trampling in the snow can be heard everywhere.
That cavalry army is indeed the most elite part of the Xuanling County defenders, with thousands of people. At this moment, the Xuanling County Lord will rush here with his soldiers.
A long street was shaken by the sound of horse hooves, and the wind and snow seemed to be shaken away at this moment.
Countless figures galloped from one end of the long street at this moment, and then they all pulled up the reins when they were still dozens of feet away from Emperor Daliang. Countless war horses that crowded into the long street stopped at this moment.
, this kind of thing seems ordinary, but in fact it shows the military discipline of this cavalry army on weekdays, and also reflects its combat power in some aspects.
The general at the head was naturally Wei Feng.
After arriving here, he took the lead to dismount, and then countless cavalrymen also dismounted at the same time. After Wei Feng knelt down on one knee, he knelt down again, and the movements were uniform, with almost no difference visible.
Probably apart from the border troops in the north, there were not many armies in the Liang Dynasty that could do this.
Wei Feng knelt down on one knee and said solemnly: "The general is late in rescuing me. Please punish me, Your Majesty."
After saying this, Wei Feng did not raise his head. He just looked at the broken hem of the emperor's robe and thought about many things. There is no need to kneel down when wearing armor. This matter is also written in the Daliang Law. Even if he today
When you come here, you don't actually need to kneel down, you just need to salute slightly. But in the face of such an emperor who can still survive under the joint efforts of three Wangyou realm experts, no amount of respect is enough.
.
Emperor Liang did not speak. He just looked at the cavalry in front of him calmly. Those people did not dare to look at him and lowered their heads, but he still felt the emotions of many people. Many of these cavalry came from the north.
Those who retreated from the Great Wall have learned a lot of things at this moment, so they have already become extremely enthusiastic about His Majesty the Emperor, whom they originally thought they would never see again. However, at this moment, they can only die.
Press down.
Emperor Liang came not far from Wei Feng. He still didn't speak, but he gave Wei Feng a great sense of oppression. Feeling the figure in front of him, he seemed to be pressed on his back by a big mountain.
I can't even breathe.
"I remember that you were the great general's disciple, and he had high hopes for you."
Emperor Liang looked at the cavalry in front of him with a calm expression, but this sentence was addressed to Wei Feng.
As one of the young talents on the Great Wall, if nothing like that had happened, he would have had a bright future.
If someone usually said this to him, he could think of ten thousand answers, but at this time, the person who spoke made him unable to say a word.
Wei Feng was a little silent, he didn't know what the real intention of Emperor Liang was.
At this time, it seems like nothing should be said.
"You were seriously injured in the North and your future is in doubt. Coming here is nothing more than a banishment to you."
Hearing this, Wei Feng finally spoke softly: "As long as you are working for Daliang, you can be anywhere."
Emperor Liang didn't look at him, but just said: "It seems that the injury you suffered back then was really miserable. You can't hear anything clearly, and you can't see anything."
Speaking of this, is there anything else Wei Feng doesn't understand? He smiled bitterly, knowing that this was the last dignity left to him by Emperor Liang, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, the general is already old and is troubled by his injuries every night.
I will not tire of it, and I hope that your Majesty will allow me to return to my hometown for retirement."
He spoke slowly, but his voice was so firm. It came out in the wind and snow. Dangjie made the faces of the lieutenants not far behind him change greatly. One of them had been following him for many years, and Dangjie wanted to speak. The other one was much older.
The deputy general grabbed the skirt of the robe beside him and remained silent.
His expression was very complicated.
Wei Feng is not old. Even if he is injured, he will no longer be able to enter the realm of forgetfulness. However, with his strong strength in the other side realm, there will be no problem in being the guard of Xuanling County. At least for the next twenty years, he will still be able to do so.
qualified.
But now Wei Feng said that he was going to retire, which was a bit unexpected.
The lieutenant general didn't understand why the general wanted to open up like this, but the other one had already understood. There was so much commotion in Xuanling County earlier, and they should have gone out to check it out, but they didn't.
Because of the general's refusal, they have been kept in the camp and cannot leave the camp. In fact, this matter has been fishy for a long time. Three Wangyou Realm experts are fighting in Xuanling County. The movement is so big that as Xuanling County
The defenders of Ling County should have come to see what was going on. As the commander-in-chief, Wei Feng could not understand this truth, but in the end he still insisted on locking these tens of thousands of soldiers into the camp.
Now that it is late, many people will not think much about it, but it does not mean that everyone is a fool, especially His Majesty the Emperor of Daliang. Such a person is even less likely to be a fool.
Now Emperor Liang just wants his military power and lets him leave. Although there may be many considerations, he has indeed opened up a wide range of things.
Emperor Daliang's gaze passed through the snow and fell on the older deputy general, and said calmly: "From today on, you will be the guard general of Xuanling County."
The deputy general did not hesitate and immediately kowtowed and said: "General Xu Ming, I am willing to do everything for Your Majesty, and I will die without regrets!"
After many years in the army, Xu Ming has never lacked courage and loyalty. The reason why he has never been able to serve as a general in an army is actually just a matter of luck. But now that the opportunity has come, how could he not seize it? Of course he
We also know very well how troublesome it is to take on this hot potato at this moment.
But even so, Xu Ming was not willing to give up.
Seeing Wei Feng, the general he had followed for many years, lose his position so lightly, and the Pao Ze next to him took over the position without hesitation, which made him very puzzled. The deputy general thought
Here he was about to speak again, and this time he wanted to get up, but he was only halfway up when Xu Ming held him down again.
Emperor Liang looked at this scene and had no feeling at all. How many people could he manage by himself in a dynasty? There must be people of all sizes doing all the big and small things. There is no need to do it personally.
Emperor Daliang stood in the wind and snow, not caring about the dejected Xu Ming. The former Xuanling County guard general who made a major mistake in a single thought is actually a great thing that he still has a life. It should not be done at all.
What to hope for.
Yu Xiyi and Liu Banbi in the distance woke up from the power of the last sword. At this moment, the two of them still had endless aftertaste of that sword.
After regaining consciousness, Liu Banbi saluted Gan Yong from a distance, who had been covered by the wind and snow. The last sword of this blind old swordsman was not only to display what he had accumulated throughout his life, but also to
The two sword cultivators were specially given an opportunity to watch the battle. Generally speaking, when a sword cultivator takes out a sword, his intention to kill is ten points, but the one in front of him only has nine points, and the other point is to show this.
The sword is for these two people.
After paying homage to the blind old swordsman, Liu Banbi bowed to Emperor Daliang again, and then he and Yu Xiyi continued southward.
A great battle, especially a sword fairy wielding a sword, will have any benefit to the two of them, it depends on what they have seen, but it is always a kind of legacy of the swordsman to the younger...
…
…
The small courtyard in the alley.
The knock on the door sounded again.
The woman looked anxiously at the courtyard door, while the little girl behind her was hiding behind her mother, peeking over there.
Previously, the entire Xuanling County was immersed in an aura of terror. Although the woman did not know what happened, she also knew that she should hide at home and not go out.
But at this moment there was a knock on the door, and the woman still walked towards the door by mistake.
"Aniang!"
The little girl shouted.
The woman came back to her senses and smiled at her, indicating that it was nothing. Then she took a deep breath, came to the door, and slowly opened the door.
Still the same man.
Go and come back again.
It's just that compared to when he left, the man's clothes in front of him now were in tatters and his face was even pale. It looked like he had been frozen after going out?
Before the woman could think too much, Emperor Liang took the initiative and said, "I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"
The woman was startled, then nodded numbly.
Emperor Liang walked in slowly, and the woman trotted into the house, took out the things she had put back before, and made a pot of hot tea along the way.
"Warm yourself, it's cold outside."
The woman looked at Emperor Liang, and asked hesitantly: "What happened when I went out? Are you being bullied? How could you be bullied if you didn't recruit people? I know it well as a neighbor. My mouth is a bit annoying, but people don't
bad……"
Emperor Liang didn't say anything. He just picked up the steamed bun and took a bite. Then he took a piece of meat and took two bites before he said, "It was a bit troublesome, but it's solved."
After hearing this, the woman breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't have any thoughts about the man in front of her, but she just felt that since he was also back from the north, she felt a little close to him.
Emperor Daliang glanced at her and said calmly: "Besides the ten Daliang Tongbao that you want to withhold every month, what else do you want?"
The woman shook her head, "It's hard to get these ten Daliang Tongbao, and I didn't even think about asking for them."
A woman like her, after being owed something, actually only wants to get what she deserves. If getting what she deserves is troublesome and requires a huge price, then she won't go there.
think.
Emperor Liang just said: "Go and open the door."
The woman didn't hear the knock on the door, but she still didn't say anything and went to the courtyard door to open it.
As soon as she opened it, she was startled. At this moment, there was a group of people standing outside the door.
What surprised her even more was that everyone in this group of people was wearing official robes. They were clearly the county guards from Xuanling County and the officials from the Yamen. All of them were here.
The woman turned her head and glanced in surprise.
Emperor Liang sat under the eaves and said, "Come in."
After hearing this, the woman hesitated and did not turn around immediately, but the officials in front of her were even more nervous.
Especially the Sheriff of Xuanling County, who was usually aloof and aloof, was now sweating coldly in the dead of winter and looking at the woman extremely nervously.
The woman looked puzzled.
But she quickly got out of the way.
Only then did a group of officials file in.
Led by the county magistrate, he knelt down silently in the snow-covered yard.
No one dared to look at the Emperor Liang sitting under the eaves, and they didn't even care whether it was the ice and snow, they were kneeling, feeling uneasy.
The man in front of me almost died in Xuanling County today.
If he is really dead, then no one in Xuanling County, from the county guard to the government officials, can escape the crime.
Of course, it is a good thing that His Majesty is not dead now, but it is not necessarily a good thing for them.
When His Majesty was fighting a bloody battle here, none of the officials from Xuanling County showed up here. What does it mean?
This is all dereliction of duty.
If we investigate, no one can escape.
Emperor Liang looked at the officials kneeling in front of him and was speechless. Instead, he picked up the steamed buns and ate them again.
The woman stood nervously on one side, not daring to speak.
The wind and snow were getting heavier, but there was still no sound in the whole yard.
Many officials are not monks. It is very difficult to endure the biting snow, but we have to endure it.
Emperor Liang sat quietly under the eaves, eating meat and steamed buns.
The warmth of the stove can only be felt by him.
I don't know how long it took.
The sound of horse hooves sounded outside the door again.
A thin official crawled in through the door.
"I, the new governor of Liuzhou, go before your Majesty and pay homage to your Majesty!"
When she heard the word "Your Majesty," the woman was so startled that she could hardly stand.
The other officials, who had been kneeling unconscious for a long time, felt cold all over.
In a state, the governor is already the largest official. Now that he is here, it means that many things are finally about to begin.
Emperor Liang ignored the governor, just looked at the shocked woman, and said calmly: "Before, I didn't even dare to eat a meal from you because I felt that I was not qualified. Now that I have eaten your meal, I will
I want to avenge you and these countless people."
When the woman heard this, she knelt down.
She burst into tears, speechless and choked.
Emperor Liang looked at the kneeling officials and said, "Of course I know that not all people in the world are good people. Among the officials in the court, there are only a few honest officials. Greedy and lustful are acceptable, but there are some things that can be done and some things that cannot be done.
Now that I have done it, I will tell you the consequences."
Emperor Liang's words fell on everyone's hearts word by word.
"I don't ask you to be grateful to those at the top of the northern city. Even on weekdays, you guys would laugh at them and ask them if they are stupid after having a good meal. You just want to live a good life and go to the north to fight with the monsters.
They are really a bunch of stupid and pitiful warriors. They are really nothing. They hide it in their hearts and tell their friends. Although it looks a bit ugly, it does not violate the law of Daliang in the end. But they risked their lives and you are behind them.
I can't accept it if they pay for their hard work."
Emperor Liang looked at them, sighed, and said softly: "If you want to drink their blood, then I will kill you all."
