Chapter 108: Disintegration (18)(1/2)
The red sun sets in the west and the sky is coming to dusk.
It is a battlefield with mountains of corpses and blood, and it becomes more and more terrifying.
The originally riotous battlefield has become quiet.
The gluttonous crows made waves of noise, hovering in the air, looking for opportunities to fall and prey.
Since all the forces on several sides were busy making money, no one could take care of cleaning up the battlefield.
The bodies of those who died in battle and horses fell to the ground and were trampled on by others without dignity.
Some of them were injured but not dead, but were not treated, or they had lost the need for treatment, but they were barely able to survive.
I just lay there, wailing from time to time, hoping that the savior would fall from the sky.
The crows cried, and the wounded cried out in a terrible cry, and occasionally there were a few shrill screams. Most of the time, some unlucky guy had a bad fate, and before he could die, the flesh and blood of the greedy crow was pecked away by the flesh of the body.
The most lively battlefield has now become the quietest place.
Dead people will not run away, and there are limited valuable things on them.
People from several groups are now busy catching those who can run and move or livestock, or just transporting food, grass and armor.
Therefore, there are not many people on the battlefield, and at first glance, they can only see corpses and broken guns and broken blades everywhere, which is so miserable.
The two horses appeared on the battlefield at this time, bathed in the afterglow of the sunset, and advanced towards Luoyang at a slow pace.
Both horses are extremely majestic, and you can tell at a glance that they are a great BMW horse that is worth a lot of money.
The man on the horse was wearing a cloak and controlling the silk reins with his hands. It was Xu Le and Li Yan.
After receiving the promise that Xu Le would inevitably go to Luoyang to meet Wang Shichong, Wang Shichong left first. Now there are only Xu Le and Li Yan and the other two walking towards Luoyang.
Although Xu Le said that he was afraid of scaring Wang Shichong, Xiao Liu still persuaded him to hang up his own horse spear, and his mount was also swallowing dragons.
As for Li Yan, she was wearing all kinds of weapons, including bows, arrows, horse spears, straight swords, and short-soldiers, as if she could walk into a weapon warehouse.
Thanks to her preference for martial arts and working hard, she would have tried her best to change to other women wearing armor and matching them with this weapon, so she would probably have to walk, let alone accompany Xu Le to the appointment.
Xu Le's body did not recover, and he didn't even dare to let the horse run.
Fortunately, he was still rich in time, so Xu Le did not let go of his feet and walked slowly, and while walking, he inhaled air in his own breathing method to move around the world.
He knew very well that what he needed most was rest and supplements in his current state.
Although the Xu family’s breathing method is powerful, it is more insulting to use it now.
It is equivalent to a person who is already in debt and borrowed another loan shark. The result can be imagined.
However, due to the current situation, we can only recover as soon as possible and let ourselves meet Wang Shichong in a relatively good state.
Although Li Yan didn't understand the way of breathing, she also understood what Xu Le was doing and did not disturb her.
The two of them walked quietly together. Li Yan lowered her head and looked at the two long shadows on the ground, hoping that this road would never end and that the battlefield would have no boundaries.
As for the corpses and bloody stench everywhere, they are nothing.
At this time, the flesh-and-blooded battlefield here is thousands of times better than the Imperial Gardens in Chang'an City.
"Jiu Niang doesn't have to go this time."
Xu Le's martial arts finally filled the world and exhaled in one breath.
Although his head was still uncomfortable, his face looked a little better than before, and he also had some strength.
He can barely hold on to the scene and has the energy to speak.
"Wang Shichong and the jackals cannot be judged by common sense.
He might be afraid of Li Tang's dignity and dare not offend Jiu Niang.
But you may also take risks and follow Li Mi to capture you as a hostage and bargain with the saint.
He has done a lot of things to do during this period. If everything is placed on the table, both sides are afraid that they will start a war immediately.
By then, it would be useless to be respectful to you, but it would be more beneficial to arrest you.
Such a person is a desperate, and he will do things that are beneficial to him and take risks."
“So what?”
When Li Yan heard Xu Le talk, she felt relieved.
Then he quickly responded: "I originally thought that since my father had ascended the throne, my identity as the Jiuniang of the Li family could always calm down some sluts.
However, this time I went out of Chang'an has given me some insight.
People still have to have the ability and cannot expect their parents to live with their names.
Le Langjun is right. My identity as a princess may not scare anyone, and maybe it will cause trouble.
But I'm not afraid. With Mr. Le by my side, I dare to make a breakthrough even if it's a dragon's nest!"
"It's a pity that I don't have the usual means now."
At this time, there were no outsiders, so Xu Le just told the truth.
"Chengji and I both suffered losses, and I was seriously injured even if he lost his life.
Besides, Luoyang is Wang Shichong's territory. No matter how capable a person is, he cannot defeat thousands of troops.
If he wants to turn against each other sincerely, the situation will not be too optimistic."
“That doesn’t matter.
My life is originally something you can save, even if you send it away with you, it doesn’t matter.
It’s not just you men in this world who are not afraid of death, but women are the same! My Li family is also from a general, and both men and women have courage! Since you want to come to Luoyang to meet Wang Shichong, you have to support your face and become alone.
Although I have no ability, I am the princess of the Li family at least. You can always support the scene if you go there.
Besides, if Wang Shichong wants to make peace with him, it would be more convenient if I am here."
Xu Le didn't make any sound.
Of course he knew that Li Yan was not saying the whole truth.
Under normal circumstances, only a dignified golden branch and jade leaf would not accompany you to take risks in such places.
Even if Li Yan is not an ordinary lady, she still has to distinguish people.
If you don’t believe that someone else will face this situation, at most she will just say a few words of encouragement in words, or admire her courage from the bottom of her heart, and there will be no other words.
As for taking risks with you, it is even more impossible.
She is just chivalrous, not stupid, and she won't rush up everything.
However, it is enough for everyone to know this matter in their minds. There is no need to say it out loud. It is good for anyone to understand it.
Li Yan asked at this time: "I actually don't understand why Le Langjun insisted on leaving this journey?
Even if you don't go, it doesn't matter.
If Wang Shichong wants to turn against him, he must also consider whether he has enough weight.
Besides, there were not many Xuanjia cavalry and horses, and they were all cavalrymen. They drove their camp back to Chang'an overnight, and they didn't dare to chase him even if they had the courage to do so."
Xu Le nodded: "That's right.
If I only want to protect myself, there is no need to get into this muddy water.
But what I think now is not just about protecting myself.
We have eaten too much this time. If we just leave like this, we have to spit it out. Isn’t that cheap Wang Shichong?
In terms of troops, we have gathered tens of thousands of Xiaoguo Army.
There were also infantrymen such as Gao Shixiong. How could these people be taken away?
More importantly, we have a fortune.
It was this money that made Wang Shichong jealous and even took the risk to play this trick with me.
It’s not that he doesn’t know how powerful it is, but people die for money and birds die for food. For this money, he doesn’t care about anything.”
"What is the reason why Mr. Le said about wealth?"
"Jinyong City!"
Xu Le slowly said these three words, and then he didn't say anything.
As the material transfer place of the Wagang Army, Jinyong City has an astonishing number of food and grass, which is much more than the amount of food seized on the battlefield.
Moreover, compared to food and grass, the value of Jinyong City is even more incalculable.
It can be said that this is the winner and loser that concerns the entire Henan battle situation, and it can also be regarded as a must-fight place.
Whoever holds here will grasp the key points of the victory or defeat of the entire battle.
Controlling Jinyong City, the long snake in Wagang is a dead snake.
The next battle against Wagang will take the initiative.
More importantly, if the operation is done properly, you might be able to swallow this green forest dragon in one bite! Such huge benefits are enough to make anyone jealous.
