Fawn

No one knows how the war broke out, and there seems to be no clue of the opportunity. One side fired the cannon overnight, and the other side also fired the cannon.Looking down from the nearby high mountains at night, you can see the shells shuttle back and forth like bolides, traveling too fast and too densely, and the rays of light dragged into golden lines, linking the two positions together.The Chahar government army lined up the heavy mountain cannons and bombarded the county town in front of them without stopping.

The city walls left over from the Qing Dynasty were first bombarded to the point of collapse, and then bombed to powder.Hundreds of machine gunners on the city wall died, and when a shell fell, they fell apart in an instant, not even a whole body could fall.Seeing that this battle could not be fought, the bandit soldiers began to retreat on their own initiative.The officers who supervised the battle blocked the back and did not allow the soldiers to run around. How could they know that the soldiers were not only disobedient, but also shot at the supervisor group.Before the enemy entered the city, the army in the city was in a mess.

He Ruolong never expected that Cheng Tingli would suddenly launch a fierce attack. Seeing that the situation in the city was not right, he made a decisive decision and immediately rectified his team and retreated.

He withdrew very conservatively, retreating bit by bit, trying his best to stabilize the morale of the army, so as not to appear disheartened.Thousands of defeated soldiers slowly pressed down on Donghezi County, he was in a dilemma, because he knew too well what kind of goods these thousands of people were--he was really going to be defeated, and this gang of bandits would probably kill and set fire before they fled. Grab it on the spot!

When the time comes, I can't control them. When Cheng Tingli comes, he can't control them either.So we can't let these people get out of control. These people will always need to be suppressed. If they can't be suppressed once, it will be difficult to manipulate them in the future.

He Ruolong loves and hates his soldiers very much.Love, because without them, there would be no leader He, and he would not have his future glory and wealth; hate, because they are all like ignorant animals, so he has to coax them and scare them, otherwise If not, they will cause chaos.He thought that one day when he really became the provincial chairman and had millions of soldiers under his command, he would have to set up a machine gun and shoot out all these bastards!

Let’s talk about the future, right now he still has to rely on these beasts to lift him up to the top—not to mention the ups and downs, his main task now is to keep his territory and strength.Although Luo Meishen's reputation is bad, but at present, it seems that his character is not as bad as in the legend, at least Luo Shi is now alone, so that he will not suffer from the enemy.

In Donghezi County, He Ruolong saw Xiaolu.

He washed his face in advance, he didn't want Xiao Lu to see his smoky mess.However, when the face was clean, there was a red wound on the cheek - I don't know what was scratched, and a very shallow wound was scraped, but it would not leave a scar, but the deer saw it Li, still can't help but feel pain for him.

He Ruolong sat on a chair, holding a big bowl to eat soup and rice.While eating and drinking, he sneakily talked to Xiaolu: "I think our soldiers have to change places, you give me Donghezi, you take your soldiers to go south, go Mountain road, don’t take the big road. Once I can’t resist here, try to retreat to Shanxi.”

Xiaolu bent down in front of him, carefully looked at the wound on his face, then straightened up, walked to the table and sat down: "Ruolong."

He Ruolong glanced at him: "Huh?"

Little Lu asked, "Will we lose?"

He Ruolong forced a smile: "Defeat? How do you count as defeat?"

Xiaolu lowered his eyes, feeling like he was walking on an ice floe, slipping every step, and was terrified: "Failure means that we lost our land, our army, and even our lives."

He Ruolong shoveled the last bite of food into his mouth, with a nonchalant and disapproving attitude: "It's not a big deal to recruit the army when it's gone, and to grab the land when it's gone! People, three poor and three rich In old age, in a lifetime, who hasn’t experienced ups and downs? Why, are you afraid? Don’t be afraid, there is me!”

Xiao Lu also smiled, and turned to look at He Ruolong: "Then...do you regret it later?"

He Ruolong raised his thick eyebrows: "What do you regret? Regret falling out with Cheng Tingli because of you? I was willing to do it myself, so I regret it!"

It was the first time for Xiaolu to experience such a fierce war. His eyes were opened and his heart was shocked.Staring at He Ruolong with lingering eyes, he watched for a moment, then turned his head and looked out the window: "I regret it a bit."

He Ruolong was startled immediately: "Do you regret it?"

Xiaolu replied softly: "I delayed your career. Without soldiers, how can you become the provincial chairman?"

He Ruolong put down the bowl and chopsticks, leaned over and slapped him lightly on the back of the head: "Nonsense! Then I can become the provincial chairman if I want to? Stop sitting here and think about it, and make me a pot of tea. I want strong tea." , I don’t know what’s going on these days, I feel sleepy every day.”

The little deer looked back at him, then got up and went out to find hot water to make tea for him.He Ruolong stared at his back and couldn't help sighing at the same time.

It would be a lie to say no regrets.In fact, I regret it a little bit, not much, just a little bit.

His love for Xiaolu is [-]% true, as true as his desire for future fame and fortune.Of these two good things, he would be reluctant to give up either one, and no matter which one he gave up, he would regret it afterwards.There is no way, he admits that he is too greedy.

So now, he has nothing to say, he can only accept his fate, he can only be calm, because no matter how this road is taken, it will not be perfect in the end.A figure flashed by outside the window, and it was Xiao Lu who came back with a teapot.The eyeballs followed the little deer's eyes, and he saw that a man could be born so well, better than a flower, better than a painting.

As if relieved, he smiled to himself in his heart, and at the same time told himself silently: "Die under the peony flower, even being a ghost is romantic."

Xiaolu put down the teapot and picked up an upside-down teacup.He is serious about everything he does, and this moment is no exception.He poured a cup of hot tea for He Ruolong with a solemn expression, then he turned and went out, and within a short while, he came back with an old map.

He spread out the old map on the table, He Ruolong stood up and watched, and saw that it was an old map drawn by hand, including the area of ​​Donghezi hundreds of miles away.Xiaolu pointed the location of Donghezi County with his index finger: "Ruolong, take a nap at noon, and lead the troops to set off in the afternoon, heading south."

He Ruolong was taken aback: "What? I'm going south? What about you?"

Xiaolu didn't look at him, and drew the route on the map with his fingertips: "We can't count on Luo Meishen. It's good that he can help. It's not surprising if he doesn't help. After all, he has always been It's hard to protect yourself, as long as the godfather doesn't hit him, he will probably save his strength and stand on the sidelines. Therefore, we have to find a way out by ourselves. You go south now and open a road for me into Shanxi. I stay in the county It doesn't matter how long you can resist, if you can't resist, I will immediately give up the county seat and chase you."

He Ruolong turned his mind and understood what he meant.After understanding, he shook his head immediately: "No, no, your method is too dangerous. You have too little actual combat experience, so I don't feel relieved if you stay."

Xiao Lu frowned, and made a half-smile and half-annoyed expression: "It's not safe for me to stay in the county, but it's equally dangerous for me to go south to play forward. Besides, as for the situation in the county, after all, I'm A little more familiar, if I really can't stand it anymore, I can escape faster than others. What do you think?"

He Ruolong replied: "I said we will go together!"

Xiaolu turned to him with his hands behind his back: "Let's go together? Don't even fight, just abandon the city?"

Without waiting for He Ruolong's answer, he shook his head with a sneer: "It's long-winded! Isn't it good that you and I work together?"

Then he smiled wryly: "I'm just worried about you—I can't stand it on my side, so I can escape; you can't escape on my side, you have to make a way."

Seeing that He Ruolong looked at him silently, he poked his head forward slightly as if amusing, and asked again in a low voice: "Otherwise, let's switch, I will go to Nanda, and you will stay and defend the city?"

He Ruolong thought about it, and felt that none of the roads was [-]% safe. In comparison, it seemed safer to defend the city, just as Xiaolu said: If you can't defend it, you can escape.

"Okay!" He finally nodded: "Then I'll leave this afternoon!"

At noon, He Ruolong lay on Xiaolu's bed with his clothes on, closed his eyes and wanted to sleep.The deer took off his shoes and crawled to his side, reaching out to untie his belt.

He spent several days and nights on the battlefield, even a pot of strong tea could not lift his spirits.Lying on the bed long and thin, he felt that his bones and flesh were all brittle, and he couldn't even move his fingertips.With a tired smile, he whispered, "I can't get hard anymore, I'm paralyzed from exhaustion."

However, Xiao Lu was very inconsiderate today, and persistently took off his pants.The waistband of the trousers retreated to the knees, and he mobilized the last bit of strength to open his legs as much as possible, and then he only felt his body float, and fell asleep like a coma.

Xiaolu got out of bed, quickly closed the door and closed the curtains.Then he walked back to the bed and bent down, he turned He Ruolong into a prone position.

Leaning over and kissing He Ruolong's face, he raised his legs to get on the bed, straddled him and knelt down.Lowering his head and unbuttoning his pants, he completely exposed his body to He Ruolong for the first time.

However, He Ruolong is sleeping soundly.

After many days without hormone injections, his organs returned to a cold and limp state.Gently leaning down on He Ruolong's body, he hugged him with his eyes wide open.

He felt sorry for He Ruolong.He Ruolong is not an ordinary young man, he is ambitious and ambitious, and he cannot ruin his political life in that small ravine.

When he met He Ruolong for the first time, he was determined to save him.Now that he has gone around in circles, his determination is only stronger.

So this time, he still wants to save He Ruolong.

A regiment of men and horses, plus a circle of centuries-old city walls, are certainly no match for Cheng Tingli.But he thought he could at least give He Ruolong more time to escape.He Ruolong is very tenacious. Back then he could escape to Gouwei Mountain single-handedly. Now that he has soldiers and guns, as long as he survives, it should not be difficult to make a comeback.

Xiao Lu lay on He Ruolong's body for a while, then got up and pulled up his trousers, and re-fastened his leather belt.

Lifting up He Ruolong's shirt, he kissed down the other's spine.Kiss after kiss, he finally bowed his head deeply, pressed his forehead against the other's back, and sighed heavily.

He thought that his love ended like this, which should have been considered a tragedy, but because it was all done willingly, he was not sad at all. Even if he really died for this person, he would feel at ease in his heart.
