Qinglong blood

Ordinarily, the Jiaying Pass has been broken, so I should have been overjoyed, but now that the battle report is inscribed, the commander Ying Kui's writing is messy and feeble, which really makes people hesitate, and I want to ask this party, but I don't want to hear the messenger Reporting in a low voice, he actually said that the battle was fierce, the generals of the two clans were killed and injured countless times, and even the commanders of the two clans were all killed...

what? !

Regardless of Zhang Hou, the commander of the Spirit Beast Clan, I only say that Ying Kui is a descendant of my Shui Clan royal family, hereditary King Jing Yi, whose father and the late Emperor are cousins. Brother, at present, in this world, apart from Long Su Long Lian and my direct blood relatives, this King Yiyi should be counted as the closest blood relative to me.

King Jingyi was older than me, so he was my elder brother. When he was young, he was the son of the heir, and he practiced the Shuiling patriarchal law in Yangdu. At that time, I was still young, and I only knew that my elder brother was kind and kind, and he treated me very well. However, later on, for some reason, he offended his father for some reason. Once he was demoted to the frontier, there was no further news. It was not until I ascended the throne that King Jingyi inherited the title and returned to the court. At the beginning of my succession, Licheng There are all famous generals stationed in Qimen, but it is the most important thing to go deep into the mountains of the spirit beast tribe. Moreover, when his father was in power, he was always worried about the border guards and changed defenses frequently. Therefore, the stability of the border gates needs to be resolved urgently. I counted the number of candidates for the generals in the court, and I always felt that they were quite lacking. In the end, I had to send King Yiyi to garrison, and it was considered safe for thousands of years.

For thousands of years, I have known that defending the frontier is difficult, and rewards and gifts are not a problem, but Ying Kuigui is the heir king. Du reported his duties, Tianshui Pavilion met with me, and I kept the call back in my heart, but I couldn't really fulfill it. Although King Seigi never complained about this matter, his husband and wife have been separated for many years, and his children are young. I apologize, I wanted to grant him the title of prince after this battle, and bring him back to Yangdu, but I never thought that in the current battle, in order to respond to Kui's strategy and courage, his spiritual power was so high that he died on the battlefield. Could it be that I was too hasty? Three Dao Jin Ling Dao Dao is pressing, could it be that what the great scholar said is true, in the end I am not worth the loss...

Hearing the battle report, I was worried for a while. Although I said at the beginning that I would do anything to win Jiaying, but now that the Jiaying Pass has been broken, when I saw the blood-stained victory report, I was unsteady for a while, and fell to the ground. Sitting next to the desk, I feel so uncomfortable...

For a long time, I bowed my head and didn't know what to think. I only said that the price of Jiaying this battle was so high that I couldn't accept it. However, Ying Kui died in the battle now. Although Jiaying Pass passed the news of victory, the situation must be unstable. , Thinking of this, I had no choice but to press down the many thoughts in my heart, immediately summoned my close relatives, and rushed to the front.

All the way to the west, before reaching Jiaying hundreds of miles away, I already felt that there was nowhere for spirits to disperse, and resentful souls were everywhere. When I really arrived at the battlefield, I saw that the former Xiongguan was in flames, collapsed after the torrent, and the generals of the two clans were killed and injured There are countless ponds in the low-lying places in the four fields, and it is no longer possible to tell whether it is water or blood...

At this moment, I was going up the ruined plank road all the way. Along the way, I saw most of my Shui soldiers were wounded. Occasionally, some remnant soldiers of the Spirit Beast clan fought stubbornly. Sighing again and again, I hurried to the high place of Jiaying Pass, where our Shui tribe temporarily camped, and saw a mournful look inside the big tent. The commander Ying Kui's spirit was scattered, leaving only a horned dragon blade from his life, a faint streamer...

My grief at the moment was far greater than the joy of defeating the enemy, and it was not as good as Lieutenant General Ying Kui who was beside me when he reported the battle last night. For a while, I stroked the horned dragon blade with my palm, and I was in a trance for a long time, and I couldn't recover for a long time.After a long while, it was easy to regain my senses. I carefully inquired about the whole story of the battle, and immediately ordered someone to count the soldiers, and quickly garrisoned Jiaying up and down. Only then did I have a moment to breathe.

At the end of the night, the cold moon on the high mountain was like a hook. In just three months, the two tribes fought heavily at Jiaying Pass. I mobilized 80 troops from the surrounding area to attack again and again. Now the Jiaying Pass has finally been broken. However, my Shui tribe Nearly half of the army was lost, King Yiyi died in battle, General Qinwu died in battle, and the spirit beast tribe retreated hundreds of miles away, the leader of the spirit beast didn't seem to have the slightest intention to bow his head. Could it be that this battle, I really did In the words of the Longge University scholars, they don't put the country and the country as the most important thing, but just fight for meaningless spirits?

A few days later, Pang Yi received my urgent order to arrive at Jiaying as soon as possible to lead the three armies. The Lord Youmo kept his promise. All the cities in the north direction were half destroyed, and I explained everything about Jiaying, hurried back to Yangdu, and immediately sent a letter to Mangyuan, ordering the head of the spirit beast to come and plead guilty. I thought that no matter how tough the Qilin is now, I should also apologize and beg for forgiveness, who would have thought that the head of the spirit beast seems to have gone crazy at this moment, and the matter has come to an end, his reply letter actually replied to me with four words - daydreaming, this..., this is simply...!

Nearly 40 soldiers were lost at Jiaying Pass. Even though the battle was won, the victory was too difficult. Therefore, Yangdu did not see joy in the interior, and there were frequent dissents. Maybe, he won't allow compensation, even if he apologizes, he will fight to the end, and it's even more hateful for him to declare to the world in the wilderness, saying that I broke the covenant and started the sword first, saying that I was a blatant act of aggression...

What a wicked person to sue first!

But at this moment, the Yu Clan and Youmo Clan didn't take what the Spirit Beast Chief said, but our Shui Clan turned inward, mourning beyond heaven, and said that 40 soldiers will be lost, and how many soldiers will die without a place to bury them , and how many generals and officials were sent home by others. Although I didn't mention it, my heart was like a heavy stone. If I advance, I need to invest more troops. If I retreat, I will fight this battle for nothing. I am really very sad. …

Staying in Boguang Pavilion for many days and nights, I thought that Jiaying Pass would be broken, and I should be able to return to Jinlan Palace and have a good night's sleep. Unexpectedly, this time is even more difficult than before. Ten days later, the situation of Jiaying Pass It's a little bit more stable, and the occasional battle is not a good thing. Pang Yi sent people to carry the coffins back to the remains of King Jingyi and General Qinwu. …

Three days later, King Jingyi had a great funeral. The palace of King Jingyi practiced Taoism, and the eyes were full. Princess Jingyi and her two sons knelt down in front of Ying Kui's spirit, weeping. In response to the honor of Prince Kui, he was bestowed with the posthumous title "Zhongzhao", and the two sons behind him were both given the rank of prince, and given the titles "King Jing" and "King Yi" to express my memory and comfort.

Ying Kui's second son, the eldest son is only the age of Zongjiao, and the youngest son just left his infancy and is in the middle of babbling. At this moment, Princess Jingyi couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard my rewards. She brought her second son to me. Salute and thank you, but that young child may not remember his father at all, and at this moment he knelt timidly in front of me, and he knew how to kowtow to call my majesty, but when I saw and heard this, I felt more and more apologetic, but said that since ancient times, wars More killing, why couldn't I think calmly at the beginning, why couldn't I wait until the time is right, and join forces with Emperor Yu to crusade together?

I was so regretful at the moment that I bent down for a moment, all I knew was to embrace the two young princes in my arms, and coaxed softly, "Don't call your majesty, call me uncle..."

Young children may not know what kind of honor and favor my words mean, and they only know how to respond ignorantly, but I sigh in my heart, even if I bestow the honor and favor on them today, the father of the two of them will never return Yangdu, oh, let it go...

Besides, King Daoyiyi had a great funeral, and after I paid condolences, I returned to Biyang Palace in a slump. I felt really uncomfortable. When I thought of General Qinwu again, my heart sank. In fact, General Qinwu was stationed in the south of Yushe. This time I received my urgent order to add Jiaying, and he is younger than Pang Yi, and he is still not considered a famous general in the court, but he is the only grandson of the scholar of the Dragon Pavilion in the court. Although this scholar has repeatedly annoyed me, he A loyal and loyal family, there is no lie, and there are no successors today, so I have to say it is my sin...

Now that the battle of Jiaying has come to an end, the news of General Qinwu's death spread to Yangdu. The scholar is old and frail. Hearing the sad news, he has not been to court for several days. I visited twice, my lord They all said that they were seriously ill, and they didn't say a word on the couch. On that day, when I visited the scholar's mansion again, the university scholar was tearful, saluted with difficulty by the couch, and said to me, "Your Majesty, my humble minister is old, and time is running out. Maybe the court repeatedly contradicted you, and His Majesty was unhappy. He always thought that the old minister insisted on making good friends with the spirit beast clan because of selfish intentions. I don't know if Your Majesty still remembers that the old minister had three sons and one daughter. Xiwen, the official worshiped the Youcheng of the Privy Council, but said that at that time, the waters and feathers turned against each other, and my son was sent as an envoy for nine days. Because he conveyed the emperor's intention to conquer Lishui, he offended Emperor Jinfeng and killed him in the city. The second son practiced martial arts and was named Zhechong. General, I sacrificed my life for the country in the battle of Lishui. Fortunately, my third son was sick and weak, so I was able to leave a single seedling. I never thought that my grandson would also..." At this point, the old man was choked up for a long time , he finally calmed down, smiled sadly, but said to me, "The most pitiful is my youngest daughter. Back then, because of the intermarriage between my water tribe and the spirit beast tribe, she married far away as the side concubine of the king of the spirit beast tribe. After giving birth to a son, I thought that the mother is more valuable than the son, but who would have expected that this time of Jiaying, the head of the spirit beast would be angry with my relatives of the Shui tribe, and he would not care that the king of the river is his own uncle, and gave birth to my daughter and grandson. Lingcheng, Your Majesty..., Veteran..."

The Grand Scholar spoke intermittently, as if he had exhausted all his strength, but I could not bear to hear it anymore, so I leaned over to support him beside the couch, and could not help but promise, "My lord, please don't worry, your mother and grandson will take revenge." , I will definitely make that spirit beast grow blood to pay in blood!"

I said this, but unexpectedly the old man closed his eyes and shook his head. He forced a wry smile and murmured straight, "Your Majesty, the old minister just said that the reason why the old minister speaks bluntly and remonstrates is not because of his own selfishness. , All my children and grandchildren died for the country, the old minister is proud of them, the old minister has no regrets, the old minister does not need your majesty to raise troops to say blood debts, the old minister only hopes that your majesty will think twice, 40 soldiers..., and, even if it is Jiaying Pass is broken today, and the road to Xiling Beast Clan is still high and dangerous, Your Majesty, you must think twice..."

The scholar of the Dragon Pavilion didn't finish his words, but he meant something. He was probably afraid that because I couldn't subdue the leader of the spirit beast, I wouldn't have time to rest, and I would start raising troops again and go straight to the deep mountains in the hinterland of the spirit beast clan. Qilin will never let it go, he lost the Jiaying pass, and after a short rest, he will definitely fight back, and it is much easier for him to go down from the high mountains in the northwest than it is for me to go up from the low places in the southeast. Now that it’s broken, I’m still riding a tiger, it’s all my fault, it’s all my fault...

That day I bid farewell to the Grand Master of the Dragon Pavilion, and I returned to the Biyang Palace. I meditated all night, but I said that although I don’t regret launching an army to conquer the Qilin, I regret that I chose the wrong time. Difficult to enter, even underestimated the strength of the spirit beast clan, which led to the current passive and dilemma. Looking at the current court, although no one dared to speak out against the war, but the ministers saw that Jiaying had a tragic battle, more or less The worst thing is that I keep saying that the head of the spirit beast is disrespectful to me, but I can't tell the five spirit world, and bluntly say that this guy is insulting me in public, this is really hard to say, and I am under a lot of pressure...

I thought about it, in order to appease the emotions of the court, not to mention the rewards and gifts of the generals for this battle, and the generous pensions for all soldiers, and more importantly, I have to admit that this battle started because of my thoughts, and the timing of this battle No, it was also because I didn't think carefully, so I got up the next morning and went to Poguang Pavilion to prepare an imperial edict. I faced the wall of the ancestral temple for a few days, just to inform the ministers that although I welcome a battle, because I acted too hastily, my family The loss was heavy, but the spirit beast's long-term misfortune will not be eliminated, and it will eventually become a serious problem. Since our clan has captured Jiaying Pass today, the loss of other spirit beast clan's soldiers and spirit consumption must not be lower than our clan's, so our Yangdu is moving inward. Should be united with the enemy, even if it is nothing else, just to comfort the many soldiers who died in the battle, you should also guard Jiaying, and then go west, you must subdue the spirit beast leader and order him to pay compensation!
