Chapter 649: Playing conspiracy, I am your ancestor
"In the battle in the Western Region, I used the Northern Region Army to contain the Northern Border, and the main force of the Western Region, led 30,000 elite troops to directly attack the Western Region Capital.
"Before setting off, Lieutenant Lin once told me privately that he had been fighting wars with the countries in the Western Regions for more than ten years. The soldiers in the Western Regions seemed reckless, but in fact they had many tricks. Their army was so easily restrained. I'm afraid there was a fraud.
Advise me to proceed with caution.
"I replied to him: I am their ancestor for playing tricks."
Hearing some funny words, but because of the tragic ending, Wei Zi not only couldn't laugh, but also felt even more uncomfortable.
Feng Danyuan was silent for a long time before continuing:
"The battle started smoothly, and the army marched straight in. But when I opened the gate of the capital of the Western Region, I was shocked to find that what was waiting for us was not the 20,000 troops in the city, but a full 70,000.
"At that moment, it would be a lie to say that we were not panicking. It was impossible to evacuate. We were surrounded by 70,000 people inside the city and 30,000 people outside the city. Either we died or we fought our way out to win with less. There was no third way.
..."
Nowadays, the narrative is dull, but back then it was all blood and flesh fighting, and it was the fate of thousands of soldiers in the Yun Kingdom!
Wei Zi couldn't help but hold Feng Danyuan's hand.
His voice was stained with yellow spots like those years ago: "I tried every means to kill the enemy and delay time. Everyone's belief was that in five days, the armies from the western and northern regions would come to support me.
"On the first day, our army lost 5,000 men. On the second day, we lost 3,000 men. On the third day, the battle was particularly fierce. The 10,000-man army was completely gone. On the fourth day, I took them and did not dare to fight.
On the fifth day, the enemy attacked us, and we had no choice but to fight to the death.
"That day, I watched helplessly as my escorts fell one by one. Some of them were very good at martial arts and did not have to die, including Lieutenant Lin, but in order to protect my life, they took arrows for me.
Carrying a knife, even the whole body was missing when he died...
"I scolded them: Everyone's life is life, there is no need to exchange your life for mine! I also ordered them to escape one by one, and no longer need to stick to the obsession of the soldiers of the Yun Kingdom and sacrifice in vain. But, who
None of them left..."
Wei Zi felt Feng Danyuan's hands trembling slightly, and his eyes were also stained with a layer of red, filled with a layer of mist.
"Captain Lin told me before he died that they can die, but I cannot die. The Yun Kingdom has waited for so many years to have a general like me. I have to live to lead the Yun Kingdom's soldiers to unify the four regions.
, so that the people of Yun State will no longer suffer from the pain of war.
"Tsk, he does think highly of me. I let so many brothers die in vain, how can I be regarded as a general? Do I, Feng Danyuan, need so many people to sacrifice their lives for their own lives? With them acting like this, have you ever thought that I would be willing?"
"They are dead and these words can no longer be heard. However, I am still alive. From now on, I am no longer Feng Danyuan who can do whatever he wants. I have to live with their lives and their beliefs.
"
Wei Zi's heart felt like it was being struck hard with a hammer, causing dull pain.
She finally understood what Feng Danyuan had been carrying all these years. People all over the world praised him for his extraordinary talent. An army of 30,000 defeated an army of 100,000. But every time they praised him, it stabbed his heart again and again.
He was reminded over and over how he stepped out from the blood of his colleagues back then.
