Gonggong committed suicide and cut off his head brazenly. This scene shocked everyone, including the soldiers of the Gonggong Department.
They originally thought that the communists would rush towards Yu Zai and them for a final fight to clear their name as a murderer, but in the end he did not do so. Instead, he committed suicide with a sword after explaining his funeral affairs.
Between heaven and earth, all sounds seemed to have disappeared, the wind and sand had stopped, and Gonggong's Shadow Sword was stained with blood and fell to the ground.
The great turmoil in the Western Wilderness that had lasted for several years briefly ended with a comma at this time.
Because there is still Di Hong.
But in general, Gonggong is the initiator and source of all this turmoil.
Yuzai was also stunned and didn't speak for a long time. Her not-young mind was deeply shocked.
There were a lot of words in her mouth, but she didn't know how to say them out. In the end, Yuzai could only sigh:
"May my China be prosperous forever."
The soldiers of the Gonggong tribe were in despair. At this time, they sang a song in unison. This was not the ancient war song they sang when they fought to the death, but a song used to express farewell and regret.
Its sad voice spreads throughout the country.
"There is friction in the rules and there are waves in the water."
"I want to change it, but I have no choice."
Things with shapes must have friction, and water must have waves. These are fixed things, and there is no way to change them.
The soldiers of the Communist Party of China bid farewell to their great leader, and Chonghua and the others were silent for a long time.
The soldiers from the Central Plains retreated, and the soldiers from the Gonggong Department collected Gonggong's corpse. According to the customs of their Gonggong tribe, they should have been buried in the flood. This was the best outcome, but Gonggong did not.
After successfully launching a flood, the soldiers of the Gonggong tribe bowed their heads to the Central Plains people.
They requested that Gonggong’s bones be buried at the highest point of Gonggong Mountain.
"The big leader's wish is to turn into stars in the sky. We want to place his bones at the highest point of the mountain, which is the place closest to the sky."
"Today we have a new Gonggong. The Gonggong Department follows the leader's wishes and will no longer fight with you and is willing to surrender."
The soldiers of the Gonggong Department completely surrendered and were unwilling to fight anymore. It seemed that the death of Gonggong Kong Ren also made them feel depressed and lost the strength and courage to fight again.
Yu Zai nodded: "What we said will definitely be done. If you surrender, we will open up a new paradise for you. No one will become a slave, and your people will be treated fairly."
"The pacification of the Gonggong Mountains is a blessing to the people of the Western Wilderness."
"Although Kong Ren is dead, Gonggong will live on forever."
The Gongjun ax has been put away. Ruan Zai asked the people from the Gonggong Department to hand the ax to Xiu, and the people from the Gonggong Department handed over the ax themselves. What is the difference between this and Ruan Zai and them handing it over?
It's different, and what it represents is "whether you are completely willing to serve the axe-wielding person as the master."
The soldiers of the Ministry of Public Works did not refuse, and the Central Plains side also collected the bodies of their brothers.
Because Gonggong's head hit the ground, several huge gaps opened in the earth. Therefore, many people were killed after being shocked, and their bodies fell into the cracks and were buried by rocks.
According to general practice, since they have been buried, there is no need to dig them out and just leave them there. However, the soldiers in the Central Plains did not do this and began excavation work.
Just when the battle just ended.
The soldiers of the Gonggong tribe could not understand the reason why the Central Plains people did this, but the leaders of the Central Plains, especially those who had been in the south, gave the same answer.
"They are not necessarily dead. Maybe there are still people alive. Even if there is one person alive, that means one more person has been saved. Those are our tribesmen."
"If they are all dead, then as you said, you have to take the body of your leader back to your homeland. Our tribe, each of us is our own leader, and the people in the world are all human beings.
They are relatives, and they will return to their homeland even if they die."
"Besides, now that the war is over, do you still want to continue fighting?"
Yuzai's inquiry made the soldiers of the Ministry of Public Works panic. They remained silent and did not speak. The excavation and search and rescue work in the Central Plains lasted for a long time. Under the night stars, they were still digging with torches, and finally, at a certain point,
From a crack, a slight gasp was heard.
The soldiers gathered together and removed all the stones here. Among the rocks and dust, a face was revealed!
This warrior from the Central Plains thought he was going to be buried under rocks and waiting to die. He closed his eyes, but suddenly he was illuminated by fire. When he opened his eyes, what he saw was not the world after death, nor the world after death.
Not the stars in the sky, but countless relatives with the same black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin as myself!
The first living person was rescued, and they rushed through another crack. On a simple wooden fur stretcher, the young soldier survived the disaster. His face was covered with dust and blood, and he was still alive.
There were serious wounds, but he was very excited at this time because he was still alive!
"I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect to see my people again."
"Take good care of your injuries. If you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later!"
The leaders were very happy as they watched the soldier being carried away for first aid. Then, the undead appeared one after another, and the search and rescue work went very quickly.
Of course, most of the people who were hit by Gonggong at that time still died.
Ruanzai and Chonghua were chatting privately on the sidelines, pretending to be pretentious, and deliberately letting those in the Gonggong Department hear:
"Only by not giving up any of your people can you gather the hearts of the people in the world. No matter how grand and beautiful you talk about it, if you don't actually do it, sooner or later people will see through it and you will be cast aside."
"The living are precious and the dead are respectable. As long as one person is alive, this is a victory for this search and rescue work."
"In despair, give others hope. One pair of hands is not enough to move a mountain, but thousands of pairs are needed."
The soldiers of the Ministry of Public Works didn't know what they were thinking, and their expressions were very complicated.
The search and rescue lasted for three days. When the sun rose on the fourth day, the Central Plains soldiers, who had worked hard for a long time, stopped the search and rescue.
The army in the Central Plains rested for two days, and then obeyed the wishes of the soldiers from the Communist Party of China, escorted the body of Kong Ren, a communist worker, back to his homeland, and accepted the land of the Communist Party of China and made a claim.
The soldiers of the Gonggong Department handed the Gongjun's ax to Xiu, admitting that Xiu was the new "Gonggong", and Xiu had very complicated feelings about this situation.
Just when the army was about to arrive at the Gonggong National Mountain, they saw monstrous fire rising in the distance where the headquarters of the Gonggong Ministry should have been.
The expressions of the soldiers from the Ministry of Public Works changed drastically:
"What on earth happened?!"
Gonggongguoshan!
Gonggong's escaped general, Gongrong, came back. He occupied the Gonggong National Mountain and made a claim!
"From today on, you all will follow me. If Kong Ren goes to fight with the Central Plains people, he will definitely die, but the Gonggong Department cannot be destroyed by the Central Plains people. I am now the new Gonggong!"
"If you don't obey me and leave here with me, the blade of my ax will be stained with your blood. We are all members of the tribe and there is no need to be afraid!"
However, the people of Gonggong Guoshan headquarters responded: "You don't have the ax of Gongjun!"
Gongrong raised the ax in his hand nonchalantly: "Whoever is Gonggong, whose ax is the ax of Gongjun!"
