Chapter 108 Under the suppression of the rebellion
I taught Su Da some simple disguise techniques so that she could be more convenient during the march. Moreover, although it is not a big deal, it is best not to reveal the secret. Otherwise, Huan Wen will feel deceived.
After everything was ready, it was time for the army to set out. On that day, the emperor took his ministers and several concubines to see them off, the heroes of this country.
I looked at the sky. It was clear and clear, with gentle winds. It was a beautiful sunny day in the south of the Yangtze River. But what was waiting for them? In history, there is no record of victory in the first counterinsurgency. This time they went to determine
It is difficult and doomed to failure. I can't bear to see this, but I have to choose silence. I can't imagine that if I tell what I know, I will be charged with treason or something. Or I will be thought crazy.
Yes, spread rumors.
History is destined to flow, and my appearance should not change any part of it. Nor should I change it. I don't know what the consequences will be. It may make me regret it for the rest of my life, and I can't try.
When Huan Wen came on stage to bid farewell to the emperor, and the emperor swore an oath of victory to encourage military morale. I handed Su Da to him and simply said: "Take her with you, take good care of her, and take good care of her."
Come back alive and well." I knew he could understand what my good wishes represented. What deep expectations and concerns I had.
Huan Wen looked confused, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just nodded and said, "Okay." Although it was strange, because it was her and because he liked her, he agreed to all her requests unconditionally.
"Thank you." I said softly.
He nodded. There was a heroic and tragic look on his face. Without hesitation, he turned around and left. Suda smiled gratefully at me, then followed him and left without looking back.
I looked at them and smiled with some relief, but I was also full of worry. I was afraid that they would be hurt. However, this was Huan Wen's choice and Su Da's choice. And I chose to believe and respect them.
Although he knows that he will come back alive this time, and may win a few small victories, because this is the army of justice, but after all, the force is limited, and Su Jun has united with several princes, and is powerful, especially Su Jun
The son-in-law of the Sixth Prince was the most powerful and powerful prince besides the emperor. The rebels were so powerful that Huan Wen could not win them all because the disparity in military strength was too great.
This is not the Battle of Chibi, nor the Battle of Guandu, nor the more recent Battle of Julu. All of these require the right time, place, and people, and now is not the most appropriate time to create a so-called miracle.
"Don't worry, they will come back safely." A gentle voice suddenly appeared next to him, as if he was dreaming.
I looked at him differently and felt a little uncomfortable. I nodded, turned away and said nothing.
I couldn't bear to see him getting haggard, as if he had aged a lot overnight, and even forgot to shave. He worked day and night, discussing strategies to retreat from the enemy with the ministers, and I couldn't help but worry. If he still
Without a countermeasure, if Huan Wen doesn't hold on for long, the enemy will soon invade Jiankang City.
Maybe, I should do something.
Night. Quiet and silent.
Out of boredom, he climbed into Li Jiu's broken house again.
When I slipped in through the wall, I was a little surprised that it was so late and Shao Shao was there. After he recovered from his illness, he seemed like a different person, becoming calm and reserved, and a teenager began to calm down.
He calmly analyzed the situation at the moment and clearly understood the crisis he was facing. He was not like some pedantic and useless literati and ministers who only knew how powerful and inviolable the Holy Dynasty was.
"Mom, you're here." Shao Shao's always solemn expression was a little happy when he saw it was me.
Seeing him, I said lightly: "Long time no see."
Li Jiu also nodded lightly: "Yes. Long time no see."
Then several people stopped talking and were silent. I found a comfortable seat and sat down, signaling them to continue and ignore me. Then Li Jiu poured tea for me. Then they didn't avoid me and continued the discussion.
I didn't speak for a long time, just drank tea, and listened carefully to what they were saying. Their analysis was very clear and logical, which was similar to what I knew. However, after all, people in this era are still restricted by many things in their thinking and are not so open-minded.
However, a lot of what they say makes sense. If they lived in modern times, I think their insights would be more perfect. Perhaps, this crisis would be solved easily.
I don’t know why, but I suddenly remembered what Tokugawa Iemitsu, the third shogunate of the shogunate, said: It’s not me who kills people, it’s politics that kills people.
I don't understand why those people like and look forward to power and the highest position so much, and even fight for it by any means necessary.
Is it a sense of accomplishment to grab something that is not yours and build their ambition and desire?
Finally, I took a sip of tea and lightly interrupted the two people who were concentrating on each other: "Defeat them all."
They looked at me doubtfully. I found a comfortable position and started to explain.
