He never thought that Xia Xiang would say such a sentence.
This was a war, a decisive battle with the enemy, and this was no child's play. Taking Xia Xiang with him made him feel that it was somewhat inappropriate.
"Ma'am, you shouldn't go."
"No, husband, I want to be with you. Whatever you do, I will not be a burden to you. We are together in life and death."
"I'm afraid His Highness won't agree." Fu Di had no choice but to push Long Lin out.
But after Xia Xiang heard this, she was very calm and not worried at all.
"Husband, Xiaocao will go. Several students around Xiaocao should all go. Du Bing and Shangguan Yunxia should also go together. I believe His Highness will definitely agree. Maybe I can still be of help.
.”
After hearing this, Fu Di could only sigh.
It seems that Xia Xiang has figured everything out, so how can he refute it?
"Okay, then we'll go together. It's a shame for you."
"No, husband, I am very happy to be able to follow you. Really, the two most fortunate things in my life are that the first is to be with His Highness, and the other is to be with you. God has treated me so badly
It’s very thin.”
Xia Xiang's cheeks were full of satisfaction.
After Fu Di heard this, he stepped forward and embraced Xia Xiang into his arms.
...
In Shangguan's mansion, the old general Shangguan struggled to stand up from the bed.
He had been lying there for a long time, and finally suppressed the pain in his heart.
Looking at the person in front of him, the eyes of the old general Shangguan were full of complex expressions.
"Yunzhou, why are you back?"
After hearing this, Shangguan Yunzhou stepped forward and came to his father's side with a sad face.
The face of the old general Shangguan was very ugly. His already old face now looked even more old.
The pair of sharp eyes that used to be completely wrapped in wrinkles.
"Father, when such a big thing happened, how could I not come back?"
"Aren't you supposed to be forming a naval army?" Old General Shangguan asked.
"Father, there are nearly a hundred warships in the navy. The personnel of the navy are all carefully selected by me. They are currently training. Without me, the progress of the training will not be delayed."
Shangguan Yunzhou told some of his situations truthfully.
After hearing this, the old general Shangguan sighed.
He knew in his heart that it was wrong for Shangguan Yunzhou to return privately without any transfer orders.
But when such a big event happened to the Shangguan family, he could understand his son. After all, the man in front of him had become his only surviving son.
"Okay, Yunzhou, your five brothers, they all died in the battle."
"Father, I know everything. I can't worry about you, so I came here specially."
Shangguan Yunzhou's cheeks were also full of grief.
This incident can be said to be a disaster for the Shangguan family.
Shangguan Wei was all killed in the battle, and his five brothers also died.
"Fortunately, I still have you, my child. I think you should be able to figure it out now, right?"
After hearing this, I looked into my father's eyes.
How could Shangguan Yunzhou not think of what his father was talking about?
Thinking about it now, his anger and blame back then were so undeserved.
If it weren't for Long Lin and Long Lin's suggestions, he would have died on the battlefield like his brothers.
Outsiders may not know it, but the sons of his elder brothers were also among Shangguan Guards, and they all died on the battlefield.
Now, there are only a few men left in the Shangguan family.
"Father, the child was short-sighted and resented Long Lin. Now that I think about it, it's too late to regret it. Father, did you already think of this?"
After hearing this, the old general Shangguan slowly shook his head.
"Yunzhou, if I could think of it, I would not let several children, including my grandson, go to that battlefield. I have fought in wars all my life. How could I not understand the cruelty of war? I originally thought that at least
There will be a few people who can come back alive to see me, but I never thought of it, eh..."
"Then father, why do you think so highly of Long Lin?" Shangguan Yunzhou asked curiously.
"As I get older, I have more things to worry about. I just want to leave an extra way for the Shangguan family. I just want you to have someone to follow Long Lin, and don't put all the pressure on Long Qi alone. Because of this,
I just insisted on marrying that outstanding girl Xue'er to Long Lin, and I am willing to let you form the navy."
After hearing these words, Shangguan Yunzhou completely understood.
If that incident had not happened, he would never have thought so much, and he would always be full of dissatisfaction with Long Lin in his heart.
But the person he resented happened to allow him to survive, and also allowed the Shangguan family to still have a glimmer of hope.
If he is gone, then the Shangguan family, unless something unexpected happens, will soon become lonely.
"Father, if such a big thing happened, has Long Qi come to see you?"
"I have been here. Long Qi and Lei Xiao have been here together. When they saw me, Long Qi knelt down and apologized sincerely. But these are completely unimportant to me. Those children and grandchildren will never be alive again.
return."
Eh... Shangguan Yunzhou sighed.
"Father, news just came that Long Lin successfully resisted the enemy and pushed back the enemy, but the losses were also very heavy."
"The child? Did you keep it?" There was a smile on the old general's face.
After Shangguan Yunzhou heard this, he nodded firmly again.
Huh... Old General Shangguan took a deep breath.
"This is simply a miracle. Apart from him, I am afraid no one can defend it, and the imperial court does not have the strength to defend it."
The old general said slowly, with a hint of surprise on his face.
Seeing it in his eyes, Shangguan Yunzhou did not refute this time.
He returned to the capital in advance, and he was also aware of the situation in the capital.
He used to be a general in the Shangguan Guards, so he naturally knew the strength of the imperial court much better than others.
The million-strong army was led out by Long Qi, but in the end almost all of them died in the battle.
The imperial court has almost no troops in its hands. Facing a strong enemy, without soldiers, what can it do to resist?
When he received the news, even he felt shocked.
"Father, I heard that the enemies have not been completely eliminated. There are still a large number of survivors. They have just retreated temporarily. No one knows whether they will suddenly come back."
Shangguan Yunzhou expressed his worries.
Looking at Shangguan Yunzhou, the old general Shangguan seemed quite calm.
"My child, even though you are in the military camp, you have read a lot of poetry and books. Have you noticed something interesting?"
"This is what I learned by accident when I got older. That is, whenever this nation reaches a critical moment, a unique person will always appear to lead this nation out of the predicament."
After hearing this, Shangguan Yunzhou couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Father, what do you mean? This strange man is Long Lin?"
"It's hard to say, it's hard to say. My child, if I hadn't met you, I might not have had so much strength. I have lost my son all the time, and I already feel that there may not be much time left for me."
A hint of sadness appeared on Shangguan's home army's cheek.
