C13 The Result of a War That Cannot be Predicted
I.
West of Goza's Castle City, Sang Ji's camp. Loong Yu knelt on one knee with a body full of wounds, while Sang Ji sheathed his saber.
"Other than you, who else survived?" Sang Ji asked again in anger. This lowly one knows that the grain has been stolen, and all my subordinates have been exterminated, so it is impossible for me to escape this death sentence. "I've come back with all my might just to give the general something." "What is it?" Loong Yu took out a piece of leather clothing from his chest carefully. Sang Ji received it with suspicion. When he saw the marks on it, his face contorted and he rubbed the cut part together.
"Oh, Luo Zha! Luo Zha. I originally thought that stealing the grain was done by someone else, so it turns out that house thieves are the hardest to guard against. " Sang Ji rushed out of the tent and stopped at the door. He looked back at Loong Yu, feeling suspicious. The life of a dog that was temporarily left behind. "Thank you, General." If you lie to me. You have seen the fate on the torture pillar outside the tent every day. "Let's go down."
Loong Yu left. Sang Ji returned the check and sat down. He held the clothes in his hand and started to think. "Someone, come." "What orders does the general have?" You need to ride fast to the Gouzi Valley and look at the place where we were ambushed. You need to remember the number of people, the appearance, and so on. "Check carefully again to see if there were any clues." Yes. "General."
"Someone, come." "General." You need to return to Biogas Field City quickly and figure out the recent situation. "Especially when it comes to the situation with Loong Yu and his team." "Yes." "Someone, come." Go outside the Goza's Castle City and wait there. See if there are any movements from the people who are in contact with the people there. " "Someone, come." "Go to the Khan camp and see if the siege equipment has arrived." "Someone, come." "Add in a few more patrols. We must know the identities of the people who appear nearby." "Someone, come." Bring me the woman who has escaped from the city. " Sang Ji had to give six orders in a row before the anger in his heart was somewhat relieved.
Within Goza's Castle City, Little Snow was walking like a walking corpse. She walked with tears streaming down her face, "Princess, where have you been? Don't leave Little Snow behind. " A group of patrolling soldiers passed by, occasionally looking at the beautiful lady dressed in palace clothing and indulging in her fantasy. Blame Snowy for not protecting the princess properly. Princess, where are you? " In the deserted street, she cried and cried as if she were looking for the soul of the city that had long since been devoid of life.
Along the way, the commoners who heard Snowy's call couldn't help but observe this bold little girl through the gap of the door. He couldn't help but worry for the fate of the little girl who was running around randomly. Sure enough, misfortune came as expected, even earlier than people had expected.
A bunch of men with unknown identities suddenly rushed out and dragged Snowy into the alley. Let me go, I'm from the palace. I am one of the Princess's people. "Let me go." No matter how Xiaoxue called for help, she still begged for help. No one opened the doors to the tightly shut rooms around them. Everyone silently watched from the crack of the door, praying that the little girl's fate would be better.
"Ahh!" The hearts of those who had guessed Snowy's fate leaped to their throats. "But if you listen seriously, it doesn't sound like it came from a little girl." "Oh my —" "Oh my —" It was not a girl's voice. What happened? The curiosity of the people was very strong, but the door of their home would not open even if they were beaten to death.
In the alley, a man who had wrapped himself up and killed an unknown group of people with a knife. She pulled the terrified Snowy and ran. The two only stopped when they reached a collapsed house. The man drew his blade and opened his veil. Snowy didn't dare to believe that the person in front of her was the missing Princess Mingyue. The Princess made a gesture to shut up, causing Snowy to not voice her doubts. This was because she had become Mingyue's biggest problem.
"Princess, I will become like you. I won't burden you. Don't leave me. " Snowy saw through Brightmoon's thoughts and pleaded in a small voice. Mingyue was about to go to Zhuri City to get married, but the thought that she was not a complete corpse delayed her time. Suddenly, when she saw Snowy's tear-stained face, she couldn't help but think of something. It was truly an unstoppable fate.
Within the Goza's Castle Imperial Palace, Duke Ming Zhu rushed there in a hurry.
"Your Royal Highness, you're finally here." "Seeing Ming Zhu, the attendant hurried to welcome her." How could father sweat suddenly fall ill? Have you asked the doctor to come? "Have we notified General Wisdom and the others?" The doctor saw it and said it was just a case of fatigue. "If he refused to let anyone know, he would be punished severely." "Alright, I'll go take a look. You guys wait outside." Ming Zhu said as she entered the palace.
"Ming Zhu, you've come." "The sweat lying on the bed had already heard the commotion, so he sat up." "Father, you are really getting sick right now." Me! Only now did he finally understand. Without me, you would still be here. " "Big Khan's words caused Ming Zhu to be shocked both physically and mentally." I am too greedy, too greedy for pleasure, too greedy for power. He always believed that power was the most reliable thing in his hands. I didn't listen to your mother and gave it to you. "I regret it now!"
Hearing her father's words, Ming Zhu did not dare to believe that the person in front of her was her stupid, greedy, and extremely fond of face. Could it be that the sudden awakening of the Queen Mother had given him a great revelation? Ming Zhu was filled with suspicion. Father, don't say that. His son was young and impulsive, which made him easily contradict his father. You mustn't take it to heart. "In times of trouble, do not fall, otherwise -- the consequences are unthinkable."
"I thought of that. Even if I have to die, I will have to get through this. Ming Zhu's probing words, let Father gently dissolve. It made Ming Zhu even more unable to distinguish the truth from the falsehood. Ming Zhu suddenly thought of her missing sister, Ming Yue. Ever since she was young, Mingyue and her father had always been the most intimate. It couldn't be that she had gotten sick for the sake of that damned girl. Thinking of this, the anger in Ming Zhu's heart suddenly increased.
"There are many beauties in my father's harem, but only you two siblings are here. No matter what happens in the future, you must love and protect your little sister. " Ming Zhu seemed to understand more and more in her heart. In the presence of the Queen, all means are exhausted to make it difficult for the other harem to conceive. Maybe Big Sweat had heard about it. For a period of time, the mother and father and the empress were at odds with each other, and it was at that time that the mother and Ming Zhu discussed the matter of the father being a cripple. Due to Mingyue's disagreement, the sudden death of the Queen Mother made everything an unsolvable mystery.
"Yes." I will, Father. We are one and the same. " As Ming Zhu said this, she became even more cautious. From the day of her mother's sudden death, she had been living in fear everyday. Even though he had five hundred Golden Winged Horses by his side, he would often wake up from his dreams in fright.
"If you say so, I am relieved." "Big Sweat started to feel better." There's another reason why I haven't given you my seat of sweat. " Big Khan's words caused Ming Zhu to stare at him. You are a frivolous person, and when you are in trouble, you are prone to extreme thoughts. In all of the various tribes of the Zhongshi Country, almost none of them caught your eye. Ah! You are the sweat of the future. No matter who he was prejudiced against, it could not be shown. What's more, he couldn't afford to do it. "No matter how good the ginseng is, it would be a loss to the body if it is too much. No matter how bad the radish is, it is a strong foundation."
Big Khan saw that his son didn't really understand, so he continued to patiently explain, "This is a war. On the one hand, you have to build a good relationship with the generals of the city. For those who have not come to our aid, you will kill them after the war, according to your character. Ah! Don't do that. There was an urgent need for recovery after the war, and internal strife gave other countries an opportunity to take advantage of it. "Remember, remember."
Ming Zhu nodded in agreement. Seeing his son acting like this, Big Sweat couldn't help but sigh. According to the information obtained from outside the city. There was still someone in the city. You must be careful. " Ming Zhu suddenly raised her head, "Father, now you allow the civilians in the city to flee as they please. The hearts of the people in the city had changed. Please take back this promise. " "Big Sweat heard this and felt his heart turn cold." What was there to worry about? Even if we take back this order, they won't run? "
"At least leave them in the city and face life and death together." Those who could go through life and death together, even if you didn't force them, would naturally follow. Those who couldn't go through hardships together, taking them hostage was a burden to them instead. You didn't know that he would stab you in the back that day. Besides, such an order would make it easier for our spies to get in and out. If I accept your opinion. The Goza's Castle is water that cannot enter. We're having a hard time. "
"Father's sweat..." Ming Zhu began to talk endlessly about this matter. Okay. You can go down. Father needs to rest for a while. " He immediately chased them away. Ming Zhu looked at her father's sweaty appearance and thought about how she would still not be accepted. A fierce light of hatred flashed in her eyes.
Moments later, the sound of weeping could be heard from the palace. This cry seemed to contain endless yearning for his children, mixed with the old man's confusion. He suddenly came to his senses and regretted it. He also felt grief for his ancestors who wanted to be let down.
"Big Khan, General Wise and the others are here to seek an audience." Let them wait in the meeting hall, I will be right there. "
