Chapter two hundred and eighteen the war is tragic
Just after noon, good news came from the army.
The first battle was successful, and this time Hualing Kingdom completely defeated Tianzhao Kingdom. As soon as Shuojin came back, Su Ningqing happily greeted him and hugged him.
"Okay, I told you, everything will be fine." Shuojin rubbed Su Ningqing's head and said lovingly.
At this moment, the Hualing Kingdom's army was still immersed in joy. Last time, they defeated an army twice as large as themselves with less. But this time, the prince led all elite soldiers and strong generals. Naturally, those soldiers were
They don't even take Tianzhao Kingdom seriously. In their opinion, Tianzhao Kingdom is really overestimating its capabilities now that it is provoking them.
Only Su Ningqing and Shuo Jin knew that this matter was not simple. The cause of this war was the conspiracy of the Tianzhao Kingdom, so the road ahead was unknown. The more victorious, the more careful you must be.
"Jin, did you find anything today?" In the dead of night, Su Ningqing came to his tent alone.
"Those soldiers look no different from ordinary people, but today their general did not go out to fight. The three lieutenants who fought with me were three lieutenants. Although they became my defeated generals, they also fought with me for a long time. They were not at all like
They look like they have lost all their martial arts skills. However, their skills do seem to be not as good as before."
Shuojin dragged his head and recalled today's scene, his eyes full of confusion.
As the commander-in-chief, Shuo Jin cannot hesitate for too long. He must grasp the enemy's situation as soon as possible so that he can make accurate judgments. After all, the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers may very well depend on his thoughts.
In fact, the purpose of the Tianzhao Kingdom in the first battle was very clear. They just wanted to find out the opponent's strength. Since it was just for exploration, why bother to show their true strength.
On the second day, Shuojin went to battle again.
This time, Tianzhao Kingdom only dispatched one-half of its military strength. It has been twenty-one days since the National Division started his plan. The army planned by the National Division has also been trained. The National Division believes that this army is as strong as an ox.
, the tireless and painless army will definitely bring miracles to Tianzhao Kingdom, and will also give the "Fifth Prince" a surprise.
"My lord, I wish your majesty victory." The Imperial Preceptor and the Emperor of Tianzhao stood on the high tower, overlooking the great rivers and mountains.
The second battle was a fierce battle. Shuojin charged into the battle. He didn't expect that there would be so many people from the enemy country fighting this time. Moreover, they were all strong and strong, and their skills seemed to be acquired by practicing martial arts since childhood. The armies of the two countries fought for a long time.
, but still no clue.
As time passed, the soldiers of Hualing Kingdom's army began to feel a little tired. They were a little exhausted. However, the opponent's army was still full of physical strength, and they looked like they were fighting for the first time.
Fortunately, Shuojin brought some sophisticated equipment. Previously, when he returned to Huanqing Pavilion, he was studying equipment used on the battlefield in order to use external forces to improve the combat effectiveness of his army. Now that he has made some achievements, he can finally put it to use.
Shuojin gave an order, and the soldiers standing in the back row launched the cannon. This object was best suited for long-range attacks. Aim, launch, and the cannonball landed directly at the core of the enemy. There was a loud bang, and the battlefield was suddenly filled with flames.
, the sound of the shells exploding was so loud that the ears of everyone present were almost deafened. Many soldiers of the Tianzhao Kingdom were blown to pieces, and some were even blown to pieces.
As a result, Tianzhao Kingdom lost half of its combat power.
At that time, Su Ningqing was in the camp and didn't know what happened. When she heard the loud noise, she felt her ground tremble a few times. The medicine jar on the table rattled for a while, and she was so frightened that she held on to it.
The wall stood there for a long time before it slowed down.
Afterwards, Su Ningqing walked outside the camp and looked in the direction of the battlefield. He saw the sky filled with fire and black smoke constantly floating upward. He could not hear the fighting, the soldiers meeting each other, and the voices of the defeated begging for mercy.
, all sounds seemed insignificant after that loud noise.
Medical practitioners only believe in their own judgment and never believe in ghosts and gods, but this time, Su Ningqing began to believe it. She returned to the camp, folded her hands, knelt on the ground piously, and prayed to God to allow them to return safely.
, so that Ayi can live.
The whole morning, Su Ningqing didn't get any information about the battlefield. The more Su Ningqing thought about it, the more nervous she became. She walked around the camp and couldn't help biting her lips with her teeth.
Finally they came back! Unfortunately, before the expedition, there was still a mighty army, but now they are supporting each other back. Shuojin is still walking at the front of the team, but he is not riding on a war horse. This war is extremely fierce, Hualing Kingdom
Not only did they lose a large number of soldiers, they also lost hundreds of horses.
The few remaining horses were all used to carry seriously injured soldiers back.
When Su Ningqing saw them, she ran over without saying a word and hugged Shuojin tightly.
Shuo Jin was covered in blood, his cheeks were stained with blood, and even the temporary bandage on his left arm was now soaked in blood. Su Ningqing did not dare to think how tragic this war must be to hurt everyone.
Like this.
At that time, Su Ningqing hugged Shuojin tightly. She closed her eyes tightly because she really didn't dare to take another look. She couldn't explain why. She was obviously not afraid of dead people, but only afraid of dead people.
She went to see Shuojin who was seriously injured. Su Ningqing bit her lip hard, even drawing blood, just to prevent herself from crying. But her body was uncontrollable and kept twitching in Shuojin's arms.
With.
"Miss Xiyan, go and see them first. They need timely treatment, and they need you."
Shuojin stretched out his hand, wanting to hug the girl he longed for. If he hadn't been thinking about Su Ningqing in his heart, Shuojin might not have been able to hold on. Unfortunately, Shuojin didn't hug Su Ningqing; his hand only
It paused in the air for a moment, then took it back again.
This time, Shuojin did not comfort Su Ningqing, but pushed her away cruelly. With the national crisis at hand, Shuojin could not talk about the love between his children.
"good."
Even though she was nostalgic and reluctant to let go, Su Ningqing immediately let go of her hand, not even daring to look at Shuojin for a moment longer. In the end, Su Ningqing did not shed a single tear.
Su Ningqing was busy back and forth in the wounded soldiers camp for a long time. Several military doctors worked with her until nearly late at night before they treated the wounds of all the surviving wounded soldiers.
Only then did Su Ningqing have time to meet Shuojin.
Shuojin was also seriously injured. He knew that the army was short of supplies and his medical skills were not bad, so Shuojin simply treated the wound and then went to arrange other things. Shuojin was also busy until late at night.
In fact, in this battle, Hualing Country won, they won!
But Shuojin couldn't be happy at all. In the past, he only hurt people to cut off their escape route, and would never push people into desperate situations.
Today Shuojin made an exception. Today's shot will lead to irreversible consequences! It will kill the soldiers of Tianzhao Kingdom! Shuojin doesn't know how many families will be broken up because of this.
Of course, Shuojin was sad because he couldn't protect his brother. Today's cannon was actually a back-up that Shuojin left for himself. Before setting off for the battle, Shuojin kept warning himself that he should never use this weapon unless absolutely necessary.
Move. Because he used it today and Shuojin will fight again tomorrow, he will have no better countermeasures.
Shuojin just sat quietly, expressionless, his eyes dull, and his clear eyes turned ashen.
A person who used to be so lively and cheerful turned out to be like this when he calmed down.
Su Ningqing really couldn't imagine how Shuo Jin was feeling at this moment.
In the past, no matter what he encountered, Shuojin could always laugh it off, as if he could handle it calmly even if the sky fell, but today he felt so melancholy.
"You are also seriously injured, so you should rest early. The soldiers will still be counting on you then."
Su Ningqing wanted to comfort him, but didn't know where to start. She could only briefly persuade Shuojin to make him strong. She sat quietly beside him, her eyes firm and fearless.
"Jin, you must not fall, I will always be behind you."
Shuojin nodded and asked after a moment of silence: "Do you want to know what happened today?"
"If you want to say it, of course I am willing to listen, but if you don't want to say it, I won't ask. No matter what it is, I will support the decision you make."
This time, Shuojin did not reject Su Ningqing and told her everything that happened on the battlefield. The more she listened, the more panicked Su Ningqing became, and her pupils began to become very dizzy. This incident was simply too...
This is strange.
"Do you have a decision in your mind?" Shuojin finally asked.
"Well, I have a little guess." Su Ningqing thought for a moment and then continued: "But it can only be regarded as a guess. I don't dare to draw conclusions without seeing the real person."
After saying this, Shuojin glanced out the window to make sure no one was around before walking to Su Ningqing's side and whispering in her ear.
"By the way, I secretly captured three prisoners alive this time. I didn't tell anyone about it. I only asked my trusted people to lock them up in a remote place."
"Take me to see it quickly." Su Ningqing stood up excitedly.
"Okay, it's just that the three of them are quite irritable now, so you must be careful when you go there."
Shuojin had no intention of rejecting Su Ningqing, but just reminded him a few more times. Now he could only rely on Ah Qing.
Afterwards, the two of them went to the most remote corner of the military camp together. Shuojin gave the three prisoners a large amount of drugs to make them quieter, and they looked no different from normal people.
Su Ningqing stepped forward and carefully observed the faces, figures, and characteristics of the prisoners' movements. Unfortunately, it didn't take long for those people to become violent. Then, Shuo Jin pressed the shoulder of one of them and let him
The man could no longer move, so Su Ningqing was given the opportunity to check his pulse.
"How? What's your judgment?"
As soon as Suning Qing let go, Shuojin asked anxiously.
"Now it seems that this should be a control technique, which may be somewhat similar to the puppet technique."
Su Ningqing guessed that it was a pity that she had never seen such evil magic before.
