Chapter 42 Picking up bones

Liu Fang watched coldly, and Yun Ye decided to put the fire on his own. No matter whether he succeeded or not, he finally tried his best. If there was not a trace of obsession in his heart to support him, he would have fled back to Chang'an with a large group of troops. As for the situation of the battle,

The victory or defeat and the impact of the incident are completely outside the scope of Yun Ye's consideration. As long as his subordinates can happily transport food, fish and sell kelp with him, who cares whether the military can make a profit?

beat.

With this simplest idea, Yun Ye led his army to set fires at the gates of the four cities. At the same time, three thousand auxiliary soldiers began to dig up the capital and transport the bones. There was no room for sorrow and no ceremony.

, that is, digging up Jingguan and transporting all the bones inside. The auxiliary soldiers carried bags of bones like bags of food back and forth between Liao River and Jingguan.

There is no need for lighting. The flaming King City is the best candle. The moat is like a flowing lava river, burning violently. It enters the city along the low waterway. One hundred thousand kilograms of black oil and as much as three thousand kilograms of black oil

Yun Ye didn't care what kind of harm the kerosene would cause to this city. He just wanted the people in the king's city not to come out and cause trouble while the auxiliary soldiers were transporting the corpses.

The Koreans finally felt fear. They didn't know how long the fire would burn. In order to survive, they rushed out from the city gate despite the flames. The trebuchets kept throwing oil cans at the city gate, trying to rush out from the sea of ​​​​fire.

Perhaps, they still persisted in pouring water at the city gate to put out the fire, but due to the wrong method, the flames burned more and more fiercely.

"How many bones have been transported? If they can't be transported before the kerosene burns out, we don't want the rest and prepare to retreat immediately. We are not allowed to disobey the order." Yun Ye, whose face was black and white, was very worried at this time.

It was funny, but Lai Chuanfeng didn't dare to disobey him at all. Even he could see that his coach was on the verge of rage.

"Don't worry, Commander, more than half of it has been transported away now, and it will all be transported away in another three hours."

"That's good. It's limited to four hours. At that time, everyone must board the ship and give the order. Liu Renyuan is ready to retreat. I don't want to stay in this damn place for more than a quarter of an hour."

Lai Chuanfeng looked at the Koreans running out of the flames in a daze. Some of them fell to the ground after running a few steps, opening their mouths and trying to scream. But no sound came out. Their bodies gradually curled up and started to smoke, and finally they began to burn.

Until it turned into charcoal, this hell-like scene made this warrior, who was used to seeing death and never took human life seriously, swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva before he calmed down and looked at Yun Ye with more and more awe.

.

Yun Ye was riding Wangcai back and forth outside the city. He had a cloth tied on his face, and Wangcai also had a cloth on his mouth, not to cover his face, but because of the thick smoke. He couldn't stand it.

When the sky was dimming, Yun Ye found that the lava river was no longer on fire. The flames at the city gate were also gradually extinguished. Perhaps the city built by the Koreans was too strong. After the fire, the color changed from cyan to black.

, the rest seems to have not changed much, even the city gate tower is intact.

More than a thousand cavalry suddenly ran out of the city gate, ignoring the locust-like crossbow arrows. They leaned against their horses and ran as fast as they could. Many horses fell to the ground as they ran, mouths in their mouths.

Helplessly spitting black foam, horses do this, and so do people. Many people are running and coughing crazily, as if they want to spit out their lungs.

Liu Fang pointed to the fish that had slipped through the net and said, "If you listen to me and ambush a cavalry there, there will never be any fish that slip through the net."

"You're right. It was indeed my fault. I didn't want to kill all the people. I just wanted to move the bones back. As long as they don't hinder me from moving the bones, I don't even think about what will happen to the city."

"This is not what a general should say." Liu Fang sighed and returned to the camp gloomily.

The soldiers ran away, and countless women and children carrying packages ran out from the city gate. They were braver than the soldiers, and they just supported each other, as if they couldn't see the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were watching eagerly.

This person is no longer a human being. Both adults and children are all pitch black, with traces of tears on their faces. They are surrounded, calling, and wailing along the corpses of the Korean cavalry.

They were walking forward with difficulty. Some people fell down on the ground while walking. The people behind them helped them up and continued walking with difficulty.

Yun Ye lay on Wangcai's broad back, resting his chin on his hand, watching helplessly as these women and children walked past. He did not speak from the beginning to the end, and did not hear Yun Ye's order to attack. Even the most ruthless soldiers of the Tang Dynasty could not help but

I took a breath and felt relaxed all over.

No one came out of the city gate hole anymore. The brave soldier poked his head in curiously, but couldn't see anything clearly. The sun was shining all over the ground on his side, but black smoke was billowing inside the city gate, like a

hell.

Looking up at the sun, Yun Ye just waved his hand and walked towards the navy with all the soldiers. Halfway through, Yun Ye found a leg bone missing on the ground. He jumped off his horse and picked up the leg bone.

In his quiver, there were many bones scattered along the way. Yun Ye picked them up one by one. If he couldn't carry them, he asked Liu Jinbao to also hold a bag. It didn't look like he was picking up human bones, but more like

A hard-working peasant woman is picking ears of wheat in the wheat field.

"Commander, what should we do with the remaining catapults and siege engines?" A captain came over in a hurry and asked.

"Burn it all, burn it all. After lighting the fire, follow the team immediately and let's go home!"

When the originally silent team heard the commander's words, they immediately cheered. It turned out that their battle was over. They followed Yun Ye closely, picking up dead bones in the wilderness, and picked up a foot bone. It was a good harvest.

Those who pick up arm bones will be praised by others. If they pick up a skeleton, they are as happy as picking up gold.

At this time, no one felt that the bones were dirty, nor did they feel that there were any evil spirits attached to them. These people were actually their own brothers, and they could feel incomparable joy from the bones they held in their arms.

When Yun Ye looked back, the Jingguan that was still standing there a few days ago had disappeared without a trace. It was replaced by a huge stone tablet. The origin and reason of Jingguan were engraved on this tablet just a few days ago.

Nowadays, all the characters on it are gone, except for the eight characters "Yun Ye breaks the King's City here". The font is blood red, reflecting the penetrating light in the sun.

Yun Ye was so lucky that he actually picked up a finger bone by the water. The finger bone was washed very clean by the river water. He wiped the water stains on it with a handkerchief and put the bone into his purse.

Lifting the reins, Wangcai neighed happily and started running wildly on the soft sand under his feet.

Wu Jian looked at Yun Ye who was galloping by the river and said to Liu Fang: "This child is very good. Even if he cannot become a general, he can still become a very good person. Why do we have to let him mount the horse and manage the army, and dismount the horse?"

Can he govern the people? Who said a good general is the one who kills more people? What has he become these days? He is not happy even if he makes a lot of money."

"I'm like this. I always thought about teaching him all my skills before I died. I always thought that the general should have the style he should have. Now it seems superfluous. Anyway, it's okay to live a happy life.

It's a very good choice. I hope my Feng'er can live a hundred years without any disease or disaster like him."

Unmooring, weighing anchor, the raft went down the river. The spring Liao water was surging, and the snow water melted and merged into the river. The whole river looked more majestic. Although there were no clear ripples in winter, the turbid water always reminded Yun Ye of Long.

The long river in it.

Yun Ye lay on the deck, opening his clothes, hoping that the warm spring sun would drive away the last trace of gloom in his heart. Wangcai came over, lay down next to him, and kissed him with his mouth. Yun Ye had been lying on the deck before.

When you are young, you always lean on your belly. Why are you lying on the ground today?

He leaned back and rested his head on Wangcai's belly. He felt comfortable, and Wangcai felt comfortable too. Lao Fang used to be the steward of the Yun family's outer courtyard. Now that he has met the Marquis, of course he will continue his work.

The tea was brewed in the cabin. I carefully scraped off the foam and checked it again. I was satisfied when the tea was golden. The cook of the Yun family was on the boat and made two snacks for Yun Ye. The rose cake was a bit hard and the osmanthus cake was

The cooking was too sweet, so Lao Fang curled his lips and kicked the cook's butt hard twice to relieve his anger. Such high-quality goods, if they were at home, would only be given to people for cooking.

He walked to the deck with the wooden tray and slowly placed it next to Yun Ye. Now that he had gained weight, it had become difficult to bend down to do these things, but he still did it meticulously.

Yun Ye, with his eyes closed, suddenly said: "Uncle Fang, we have been apart for a while, why have we become unfamiliar with each other? I am not a very particular person, so why do I make myself so tired?"

"Master Marquis, our family is a well-known family in Chang'an. You can't indulge us servants too much. Everyone knows that our family is comfortable, but after being comfortable for a long time, we are unwilling to move around. Take a look,

These killers can't even make two simple snacks now. They have wronged the Marquis. You have fought repeatedly and killed the generals and captured the flag. The whole family is honored. It is a blessing for the little ones to serve you. Under your big tree

"Being a little bird and picking up two worms to eat is the virtue accumulated by our ancestors in eight lifetimes."

"Well, Uncle Fang, you still can't get rid of your habit of flattering, but like a master, like a servant, I like this. If you want to go back home and continue to be in charge, of course you can. The people at home will run away.

It's all over the world. Uncle Qian can't do it alone. It doesn't matter if you go home or help Uncle Qian with the housekeeping. You're quite old and it's not good to be in the wind and rain all the time. Once you settle down,

Okay, let the boys run about the outside matters."
