After the general fell ill

He is unquestionably an outlier.

The Jin Dynasty was overthrown, and the rebels were all from aristocratic families, even descendants of the former royal family, with Liang Mao being the only exception.

Although he comes from a humble background, he knows how to judge the situation.

After Meng Xian's defeat, he incorporated part of Meng Xian's forces and gathered a group of talents, so he dared to challenge Xiao Jiang who was in full swing.

Liang Mao only won two states at that time, but he soon realized the importance of winning over local aristocratic families. He held a big banquet and personally delivered invitations to the deceased family.

However, people who consider themselves noble despise lowly people, those aristocratic families don't even bother to hide the contempt in their eyes, and don't take Liang Mao seriously.

Except Su Ce.

The Su family of Yinzhou looked at the Central Plains as a well-known family. There were four prime ministers, three grand masters, and one general in their ancestors.

If all this hadn't ended in Su Ce's grandfather's generation, it would still be able to praise the profound family heritage.

The grandfather and Xiao Jiang also saw that the Jin Dynasty was terminally ill, and in order to protect his life, he asked the Emperor Jin to resign and return to his hometown. After refusal to resign many times, his grandfather's health deteriorated. When the Emperor Jin finally let go, another person came An imperial decree to deprive him of official titles, the depressed grandfather died of illness on the way home.

The head of the Su family in Yinzhou passed away unexpectedly. The eldest son was too weak to support the family business, and the youngest son was far away on the Udi battlefield.

So the former aristocratic families separated, and the young Su Ce witnessed the indifference and ruthlessness of his relatives.

Without rank, there is no gain, even relatives with the same blood will betray.

The glory of the past is gone, and the head of the Su family in Yinzhou who succeeded Su Ce's father has been completely separated from the ancestors.

His father couldn't hold on for long. After his little uncle died in battle, at the age of 16, his father supported his sick body and insisted on crowning him in advance, fearing that he would be bullied by others, so that he would have enough confidence Take on the responsibility of being the head of the household.

Then, he passed away.

The 16-year-old Su Ce has no relatives, and his mother, Liu Shi, died of illness when he was young.

A year later, Meng Xian, who conquered Chang'an, went to six prefectures to unify the north. Although the Su family in Yinzhou was not as famous as before, it was still the primary target of Meng Xianlai's wooing.

After Meng Xian's death, he met Liang Mao who came to visit at the gate of the deserted and declining Su Mansion.

A Yinzhou Su family whose shoulders are only empty shells.

A leader of the rebel army intends to compete in the world.

After the two had a long talk about the general situation of the world, they hit it off immediately, and Su Ce has since identified the master.

He dismissed his servants, sold his property, and came to join Liang Mao alone.

At this point, the Su family in Yinzhou ceased to exist.

Only a crimson figure remained imprinted in Huaizhou, forcing Xiao Jiang, who was in full swing, to retreat.

The two monarchs and ministers retreated to Xiaojiang in the west, expanded the prefectures in the east, attacked Wudi in the north, and reached the Yangtze River in the south.

But in the dark, the seeds of assassination were quietly planted.

Aristocratic families buy murderers and kill people one after another, just for success.

3: Destiny

After seven years of strategizing and conscientious work, he made a wedding dress for Qin.

Perhaps the policy promulgated by Liang Mao touched the interests of the aristocratic family, or maybe it was to eliminate an opponent who was vying for the world. There were many reasons, but there was only one result - Liang Mao's life.

There are many assassinations, and there is always a time to succeed.

On the day Liang Mao's wife and two sons were assassinated and killed, he and Su Ce were still far away at the border between Yan State and Udi to discuss military affairs such as winter rations and grass.

When he returned to Guangyang, what greeted him was not the warm greetings from his wife and children.

Liang Yu, who was only ten years old, jumped down from the guard's arms and threw himself into his arms, tears smearing that pink and jade-carved face.

Liang Mao, who knelt down to hug his daughter, felt cold in his heart. His heart was torn and trembling, but his hands didn't shake at all.

Back then, Liang Mao gave up his ordinary farming life to join the rebel army. His initial idea was that he would not go hungry if he followed the rebel army.

Although many people of insight gathered around him later and helped him reach the high position he is today, he did not abandon his wife and children who accompanied him around when he was young and couldn't eat enough.

They were allowed to take the honorary positions of queen and prince, but all of these were deprived of them in an instant.

After Su Ce heard the news, he couldn't return to Guangyang in time due to complicated affairs, but he understood his monarch and kept writing letters to comfort and advise the emperor who had lost his wife and children.

No one could have imagined that Liang Mao's assassination and death came more suddenly. Su Ce, who was far away in the border, could not save him, and only had time to meet him for the last time.

When the monarch and his ministers parted, Liang Mao worried about his only daughter inside and out.

Can an 11-year-old girl calm down the courtiers around her? Liang Yu may not be able to do it for the time being, but Liang Mao knows that Su Ce can.

From then on, besides Yan Guo, Su Ce pretended to be a little girl in his heart.

If Liang Yu really died, what should the country of Yan do?

The night is dark, the sky is full of dark clouds, there is neither a bright moon nor stars, and there is chaos.

The wind in the forest caressed Su Ce's calm brows and eyes under the red belt on his forehead. He was caught off guard this day, but he was not completely unprepared.

But his old opponent Qin Guo didn't intend to make him feel better.

What will be the fate of the country of Yan? The scouts who came back from the front quickly gave him the answer.

"General, the figure of the Qin army was detected in the southwest direction." The scout rode forward and said eagerly.

"How many people are there?" Su Ce asked calmly.

"There are many figures in the forest, at least five thousand cavalry."

Five thousand?Su Ce recited this word twice in his mind. If there were only 5000 soldiers, which was equivalent to the number of soldiers he led, it would not be difficult to break through and fight back, but the problem did not lie there.

Su Ce knew a little about Qin, who had succeeded for three years. Xiao Zhuo didn't fight battles that he was sure to lose, but only fought battles that he was sure of.

Now that the emperor of Yan Kingdom has passed away, the dragons have no leader, and the most threatening self cannot save the near fire from far water.

He wanted to take the opportunity to destroy the country of Yan, just like Su Ce once seized the opportunity of Han Ling's death.

Therefore, the strength of the army is by no means more than [-].

"Pass the information to General Li and act according to the original plan." As soon as the words fell, Su Ce's face turned pale. You can lead the soldiers to submit to Qin."

Under the cover of the dark night, the guards failed to notice Su Ce's discomfort. After hearing this, they looked at him in shock and said, "Yes."

Su Ce's countless plans to repel the Qin army originally listed in his mind were all snuffed out in the bud as his body became more and more dilapidated.

He tensed his body, smelling the rust between his lips and teeth, the hand holding the rein seemed to be cut off by a knife, and he was wrapped unconsciously under the armor.

The backlash of the effect of the medicine was more violent than he thought, and all the imperial physician with the highest skill in the palace could do was to prolong his lifespan.

It is a disease that has no cure. Instead of suffering from such pain and choosing to stay in bed, it is better to regard the body as steel and use medicine to maintain the illusion of health. Go south to destroy Zheng and prepare for the unification of the Central Plains.

Unfortunately, he can only do the first step.

As the hand was out of his control, the body seemed to escape from the control of the brain. The evidence was that he couldn't swallow the blood stuck in his throat no matter what.

"Puff—cough cough..." Su Ce couldn't even raise his hand in a panic, allowing the bright red blood to splash on the snow-white mane.

The white horse neighed, and Su Ce raised his hand tremblingly to wipe away the blood from his lips. He could no longer hold the reins of the white horse.

Guangyang, the capital of Yan, was close in front of him, but he didn't have the strength to walk back.

Destiny is on the side of Qin Xiao's, and his own serious illness is also a surprise gift for Xiao Zhuo.

After seven years of strategizing and conscientious work, he made a wedding dress for Qin.

Su Ce's body shook for a moment. He wanted to give his last order while he could still think, but since the cruel fate had chosen the winning side, he had to completely prevent the losing side from having any chance of a comeback.

Finally, he let go of his weak hands, and fell off the horse again with his eyes closed.

Before he fell into a coma, Su Ce vaguely thought that he was about to cross the boundary of Yinzhou, and that he might be returning to his hometown when he reached the end.

In Qingzhou on the border of Qin State, thousands of miles away from Yinzhou, a tall figure with a height of eight feet was followed by a man with a chattering seven feet.

"General Gu, Lord Gu, can you understand my mood and cooperate with my work?"

He Liang walked around from the man's left side to the man's right side, and finally stepped forward to block the man's progress, and successfully stopped the General Gu he was talking about.

He Liang hurriedly seized this rare gap and continued: "General Gu, two years ago His Majesty ordered you and me to come to Qingzhou to garrison troops to stabilize the frontier. Now that His Majesty's edict has just arrived, you plan to leave us alone and go alone Going to Beijing to meet the saint? You leave all those military affairs to me, do you miss His Majesty who is far away in Chang'an so much?"

Before the man could open his mouth, He Liang stepped up his attack and said, "What is the urgent matter? You are more urgent than escorting the intelligence envoy who is escorting eight hundred li. Do you have the heart to leave all these things to me? ? Do you have the heart to abandon these soldiers who share weal and woe?"

He Liang failed to make a move and began to use the soft policy, but the eyes of the man in front of him were indifferent, and he was not moved by He Liang's words.

"There is no change in Udi, and there is no major event in the court. There is only one major event that can be called recently.
