Anyone who has experienced hundreds of battles will be alert and the coercion will naturally be revealed. The murderous aura accumulated in this bloody wind is so strong that not only Shi Lan can feel it, but also the horses under the two men's crotches.
He was also frightened to the point of restlessness. Heifeng let out a low roar and tightened his hooves. As soon as the master on his back lifted the reins, he rushed half of the electricity towards the point of the blade. And the Taohua Cong that Erya was riding
But he screamed "哓啕" and tried to move his body a few feet away.
"General Qi..." Zhou Daniu and Guo Fang rushed back to pay the order. They suddenly felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere. They were stunned. They couldn't say the second half of the sentence and stood blankly five feet away.
.
"What's the matter?" Li Xu quickly adjusted his attitude, took his hand away from the handle of the knife, and asked with a smile.
"General, the old and weak in the village said that they will only open the door and surrender if the general promises not to kill anyone. Otherwise, they would rather die together!" Guo Fang answered first, wiping the sweat from his forehead that was either due to fatigue or fear.
"Answer them, I will not kill old people, women and children. As for men, since they have raised the knife, they should have known that such a day would come!" Li Xuqiang suppressed the irritability in his heart and answered coldly.
"Yes, general, go and deliver the order immediately!" Guo Fang didn't know why Li Xu was angry just now, but he was suppressed by the strong momentum of the other party and his scalp was numb, so he wanted to hide far away.
"Don't be busy!" Before he could turn around, Li Xu added in a deep voice, "Tell the bandits in the village that I will no longer bargain with them or kill innocent people. If they are still men,
If so, you know what to do!"
"Honor your order!" Guo Fang agreed and galloped away. When Li Xu was far away, he glanced at Da Niu who was at a loss and frowned and asked: "Has General Zhang begun to withdraw his troops? Why haven't you seen him yet?
Turn around? How are the casualties among the brothers? Have the results been calculated?"
"Prisoners, there are too many prisoners. General Zhang is escorting them back slowly. If the general needs him to see him as soon as possible, I will ride to him immediately. Fang Changshi has already counted the casualties of the brothers and will be there soon.
Send it here. If the general needs to know urgently, I will also pass along the message!" Zhou Daniu answered quickly without thinking.
"No need, you take a few people to take my wife back to the camp. I will go and pick up General Zhang personally!" Li Xu shook his head and ordered loudly.
Knowing that Erya was unwilling to leave, Zhou Daniu did not dare to disobey the coach's order, so he had to urge his mount to step forward and gently pull Taohua Cong's reins. Erya was also frightened by Li Xu's appearance just now, and said nothing.
He let Zhou Daniu take him and his mount away from the battlefield. After walking hundreds of steps, he could no longer bear it, and tears rolled down his face one by one.
Seeing his wife weeping, Zhou Daniu neither advised nor dissuaded him. He only suppressed the veins on his forehead and murmured words of comfort, "The battlefield is bloody and smelly, so people will inevitably feel agitated. The general's
The anger may not be directed at you, madam, please don’t think too much about it!”
"I know he is worried about national affairs!" Shi Lan wiped his tears and whispered. "But the civil and military officials of the dynasty don't care whether the country is lost or not. How much can he manage by himself? He always thinks that the heroes in the world are as old-fashioned and warm-hearted as him.
But he doesn’t know how people’s hearts are separated from his stomach, so how can he guess what others are asking for at this time!”
Zhou Daniu felt extremely embarrassed when he heard the resentment in Shi Lan's words. It was indeed not a rational choice for his general to lead his troops to fight against Wagang at this moment. But it was precisely because the general was a hot-blooded man that he was determined to do so.
He followed him around. Thinking of this, he hesitated for a moment and lowered his voice to persuade: "The general may not have thought of what the madam just said. It's just that the madam may not understand the things between men, so it's better not to interfere as much as possible.
good!"
"How do you say this?" Shi Lan was stunned by the big bull, put away his tears, and asked angrily.
"Madam must also know that the general came from a humble background and did not have so many relatives and friends left behind by his father's generation to help him! His success in getting to where he is today is all a result of one blow after another." Zhou Daniu thought for a moment and answered.
Among the generals in the army, he is one of the few who has been with Li Xu since the Xiongwu Camp, so he has a clear understanding of Li Xu's growth experience over the years. In his spare time, he also dreamed that he was Li Xu and could
He was as powerful as him. But the longer he followed the other party, the more he respected Li Xu. He knew that even if he was in the same position and had the same opportunities, he could not do as well as the general.
Over the years, countless guys in the army who started at the same time as General Lee, whose family backgrounds are ten times better than General Lee's, and who are ten times smarter than General Lee are either unknown or have completely lost power, but General Lee has always been climbing up one step at a time.
The situation can never be described with just the word "luck". It is a concentrated expression of a person's talent, ability, and ability to accurately grasp and judge the situation. Every choice may not seem the smartest, but when all choices are connected,
But the effect is much better than playing tricks in a single stage.
"You're right! If there are many scheming and decisive people around him, I don't have to worry about him so much!" Erya listened to Daniel's mysterious words, and his attention was slightly attracted, and the aggrieved feeling in his heart suddenly became lighter.
Many responded with a pair of tearful eyes.
Zhou Daniu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Those so-called wise men are all very snobbish. Before the general rises, which one of them is willing to follow him sincerely?" With a sigh, he continued: "Even if they are willing to follow, their ideas
There must be many people who are vicious and vicious, and if the general listens to it, it will be bad."
"Then why?" Shi Lan was completely stunned by Zhou Daniu and asked with tearful eyes.
"Take the matter at hand as an example. Zhao Sima, Cui Prefect, including Wu Tongshou of Qi County, who have not advised the general to temporarily give up the idea of revenge for Mr. Zhang and wait and see how the situation changes." Zhou Daniu looked around and said,
Finding that there were no irrelevant people eavesdropping, he explained in a very low voice. "But Mr. Zhang is very kind to our general. If his head is allowed to hang on Wagang Mountain to be exposed to the wind and sun, the general will not be able to survive."
Indifferent, madam, please think about what the heroes in this world would think of our general."
"Furthermore, His Majesty has repeatedly promoted generals in an unusual way. Although he has failed the world, he has never failed him. If the general refuses to come south, those who know will understand that he has not received the imperial decree at all, and those who do not know will think that he sees the situation as inappropriate.
Miao then made a fool of himself. What would those civil servants who had placed high hopes on the general think? Do they still think there is any difference between the general and those children from wealthy families?" Zhou Dali Newton paused and continued to add.
Because he spoke too fast, his breathing became very uneven and his face turned extremely red. But every word was to the point, and the other party couldn't help but nod his head.
"Madam, please think about it, how many of the brothers who are following the general now are here because of his name? If he doesn't go south, it would be unjust to Mr. Zhang, and it would be disloyal to His Majesty.
, can an unfaithful, unjust, courageous and ignorant person convince the brothers? Even if you are a madam, would you like to spend your whole life guarding such a useless man?!"
"Zhou, General Zhou is right, I, I did see too little!" Shi Lan was so angry at the question that he lowered his head and responded in a voice like a gnat.
"Not only that, nearly half of the generals in our Boling Army are from Qi County. If the general refuses to stand up for Mr. Zhang, what will the generals think of him? Can the morale of the army be peaceful? The six counties of Boling are a place of four battles.
, less than two years after the general took over, the weather and the right location are not there, and all he can rely on is human harmony. If the military's morale is chaotic, can the six counties of Boling be saved? To be honest, I have followed the general for so many years.
I’ve seen him hesitate when making decisions, but I’ve never seen him be as difficult as this time. So if Madam wants to help him, it’s better not to disturb his mood!”
"I, I'm afraid, afraid..." Shi Lan wanted to say that he was afraid that someone would attack Li Xu behind his back for everyone's future, but he was afraid that Zhou Daniu would be unhappy if he said it, so he hesitated and couldn't finish the rest of the sentence for a long time.
"No matter what Madam is afraid of, she can only do it for the General quietly, and cannot say it casually. Otherwise, the brothers will feel that the General values one woman more important than all their lives combined, which will damage the General's
It's okay!" Zhou Daniu turned around and warned very solemnly.
"General Zhou is absolutely right! I know what to do!" Shi Lan was also a smart woman, and knew that Zhou Daniu had good intentions. She wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes and responded with a smile.
"I followed the general the year I conquered Liao for the second time. I believe that the general is not a fool. My wife had better believe in the general, otherwise it will only make things more and more chaotic!" Zhou Daniu saw that Shi Lan had completely accepted his decision.
Suggestions, smiles, summaries.
'Since you are his woman, trust him and then do the things he neglected for him.' Shi Lan nodded and thought silently in her heart. She found that she now understood very well why Qier learned that Li Xu was about to go south.
, instead of stopping her, she prepared provisions and supplies for their common husband. This is the wisdom of being a woman passed down from generations of aristocratic families. She has just discovered a new path, and she still needs to learn a lot...
"Where did you learn these skills? Did the general ask you to tell me these words?" After chewing Zhou Daniu's instructions several times, she raised her head in confusion and asked.
"No, it's not!" Zhou Daniu suddenly panicked and stammered in reply, "I can see this all myself. Madam, you must remember that these words must not be mentioned to anyone. Otherwise, not only will it be reported to the general, but
And it will bring countless troubles to you, your unborn child and me!" (To be continued)
