1253. Chapter 1253 Arms and fire are always accompanied (2)(1/2)
Not long after, Lin Qian was summoned again by the Allied Forces. Yin'er took the calf and walked in the snow for a while, and immediately went to the prison to meet Lin Qian's other son.
"It's true that I am the guilty one for being lost in Yuzhong. I will naturally apologize when I see my comrades in arms, but I am not the culprit of Shixiaowan. I can only blame Shen Zhao for his own inability to fight!" "If they hadn't held back, How could master lose the battle!" "I despise the kind of people who blame others for their low combat power!" "But master taught me the same lesson as them, saying that they were all right but I was wrong! Why!" Gu Tingxian's thoughts He is different from ordinary people. In the final analysis, it is due to his outstanding military achievements and his arrogance based on his talents.
So he complained all to Yin'er without exception. What he thought about in the past few days was: "Master, he doesn't know the heart of a good person! I obviously did it for his own good!" "When Master sent me to prison, he didn't even dare to look at me. Look at me, don't you prove that Master is wrong? Just sacrifice me to calm the anger of the public!" "He should have dealt with it fairly. Everyone here in Shixiaowan is responsible!" "Punish me when you get the chance, and all the rewards will be owed. !But—I don’t care!”
"Ting Xian, you are indeed the person I am most grateful to for Master's wife being able to come back safely this time." Yin'er quickly corrected him, "But you misunderstood Master. He does not blame you in his heart. He does not think Shi Xiawan and you are the culprit." , let alone sacrificing you to calm the public's anger, the price you have to pay for this war is just 'the merits and the demerits'... and 'closed door and thinking about your faults' is because you are arrogant and rude, and your words are rude, which makes him feel that you have not recognized yourself. If you lack a sense of responsibility, you may not be able to reflect and learn lessons, and you will not be able to avoid making the same mistakes again."
Tingxian's expression suddenly darkened: "What's missing...? So he is disappointed? He thinks I don't have enough sense of responsibility and am not suitable to be a general..." His anger slowed down slightly, but it seemed that he had overcorrected, and he suddenly showed decadence.
"No, I'm not disappointed. Ting Xian. Your sense of responsibility for Gu Jiajun and Yuzhong is already good enough. It's just that from a strict point of view, it's not perfect. It needs to be mature to be mature. To be a general, first of all, you need to distinguish between public and private affairs, and military orders are paramount. Secondly, The most important thing is to be prepared for danger in times of peace and not to take any chances. Remember that many things can affect the whole body - to be a qualified general, you must not only be responsible for your own subordinates, but also pay attention to the relationship between your colleagues. When fighting, You have to consider whether it will affect them, and remember that they are always there when you are calm - this is the lesson you should learn this time." Yin'er explained, rather than being instructive, it is better to tell the whole story.
Tingxian smiled bitterly: "What the wife said makes sense, but it's a pity that the master never said..." He lowered his head and muttered, "He also knows. There is a lack of communication."
"Master just hopes that you will be smart and gain wisdom every time you go through the hardships. I also hope that Ting Xian you will become better and better as you work harder." Yin'er smiled.
"Master, where are you now?" He reluctantly responded with a smile, not knowing how much he heard or how much more he heard.
"I'm busy negotiating peace with Qilian Mountain." Yin'er was startled and answered what she knew.
"If we want to get rid of the predicament, the first step is to make peace with Qilianshan - why not tie me up again and send me back to Hong Hanshu? That way the negotiation will be faster, and the master will not be so busy." He still remained. There was some mockery in the words. Yin'er was stunned for a moment. She could tell that this was a strong self-protection sentence that he did not want others to hurt him, because this mockery was directed at himself.
In fact, his complaints from beginning to end were probably just protective colors, and those resentments and accusations were just superficial phenomena. The deeper and true ones were decadent reluctance and forced smiles - Yin'er had known that he would be able to talk hard when listening to strings.
Instinctively, Tingxian was hit hard this time. He recalled Gu Tingxian’s expression dimming when he heard Lin Qian’s sincerity, and thought of Lin Qian’s words. “I’m really afraid that Tingxian knows better than all of us and regrets it.
He knew how much responsibility he had to take for this defeat; I was also worried that this failure would have a great impact on Tingxian and be detrimental to his future development...Yin'er realized a serious problem, that is, Tingxian, he really knows this better than anyone else.
The seriousness of the First World War, and as Lin Qian said, he, the biggest "victim", did not understand the lesson but understood it too well. He had already been taught the lesson and was still unable to recover!
Yin'er has roughly sorted it out: this defeat seems to have exposed the lack of sense of responsibility in Tingxian, which is difficult to tame. He also showed his arrogance and rudeness and poor relationship with his colleagues during the interrogation. However, in fact, he
Ting Xian is much more mature than before. Ting Xian's conscience is here. He knows that leaving his post without permission is a big mistake and regrets it. He is ashamed of Yuzhong and even Shixiawan. Yin'er didn't say it, but he has also reflected on it.
: He can no longer ignore public and private affairs and take chances. He has long been aware of his own shortcomings. After this battle, he may have established a sense of responsibility - but his confidence has been drained. How can he become an excellent general? It turns out that he
None of them are suitable to be generals——
It must have been Lin Qian's slap.
Because he was rude to his colleagues, which made people feel that he was not aware of his mistakes at all, Lin Qian slapped him, just to wake him up; and since he was awake, he misunderstood that Lin Qian was completely disappointed with him...
...In this way, both sides took a detour and expressed their opposite emotions. Speaking of which, the master and the apprentice have been in completely opposite directions more than once. Isn’t it because Gu Tingxian you gave the wrong information first? In the end, even Lin Qian couldn’t see your heart clearly.
What do you think?
The truth left after Yin'er cut off Shen Zhao's branches verified Tingxian's biggest fear. He thought that Lin Qian no longer recognized and expected him. He cared so much about Lin Qian's opinion of him. The reason why he said
The sentence about being tied up and sent back to the Qilian Mountains means that he deeply regrets that he brought the Qilian Mountains to Master! He is not a hero of the Master, but is causing trouble for the Allied Forces and discrediting the Master's reputation! At this moment, everything the Master's wife says is comfort, Master
He doesn’t even want to see me!
"No matter what I say, it's useless. What he lacks most now is your encouragement and your affirmation." Yin'er wanted to say to Lin Qian that the person who tied the bell must also be tied. He also knows that there is a lack of communication.
"That is to say, "I have determined for you that Ting Xian needs comfort rather than criticism. The next step is for you to relieve his knot in person." However, Lin Qian was negotiating peace with Qilianshan at the moment, and Yin'er asked around
, everyone said that the negotiation was very difficult, and Lin Qian couldn't come back for a while. When he thought about Han Shu's heartache being more serious than Gu Tingxian's, Yin'er's already tight wrist tightened even more, but he had become accustomed to the pain.
"Finding the bottom line, these things were all caused by me." Yin'er looked at the withered stone fjord and suddenly felt wary. She secretly vowed to help Lin Qian get back both Tingxian and Hanshu.
It is said that the negotiations had reached deadlocks several times before Lin Qian arrived, mostly due to Hong Hanshu's emotional instability. Every time Lan Yang and Han Zeye talked about details and had already progressed to two items, the bestiality of Hong Hanshu would suddenly
They objected, flipped the table manically, danced around with hooks, and yelled. They forced the two items to go back to one item, so the negotiation dragged on for a long time without any results.
What Hong Hanshu said was human, but what he did was not human. Everyone present didn't know whether he knew what he was doing here, but no one could disobey him, because none of them had seen him destroy humanity. One move kills a hundred people, and corpses litter the land. With him around, the atmosphere in the negotiation was tense from beginning to end. Everyone except Lan Yang Hanze Ye was as silent as a wood carving. Who dared to laugh after seeing a scene that was usually ridiculous? He didn't even dare to move the muscles on his face.
Including Han Zeye, who retired from the battlefield due to injury this time and took over the negotiation task. Although he was on the same level as Hong Hanshu and the world was not afraid of him, he had to be cautious in his words and actions because he was responsible for the life and death of the Allied Forces.
Yes, the scene was ridiculous and abnormal. In the past, Hong Hanshu wouldn't have cared to be present at the negotiation, but today he seemed to be listening attentively, watching with eagerness and misbehaving from beginning to end.
Suddenly, Hong Hanshu interrupted the negotiation again. Without any hesitation, he was startled. But he was solemn and categorical: "I want his head!!"
For a moment, who among the crowd looked at Hong Hanshu without following the sound? Seeing that his face was normal, he was awake, and he was speaking normal words, but why did you think he was crazy! How could you be sure that he was crazy!
——And who else could be the "him" in the words, who was not the instigator of the Battle of Longshan? The man who had met Hong Hanshu in the heavy rain, and was covered with bruises after more than a thousand rounds of fierce fighting with swords and hooks, which caused great harm to the people at that time. The stubborn young man who was present and who is present now and countless others...
"Gu Tingxian." Lan Yang reminded this sentence. Everyone knew it even if he didn't mention it.
When it comes to Tingxian's life, Zeye can't make the decision, but he doesn't want to bother Lin Qian. He wants to take it all by himself, and Han Maple Whip is always in hand.
Today, Hong Hanshu finally returned to Longyou to lead the Qilian Mountains again. Although the truth about the obsession and the injustice suffered in Xixia have not yet been widely circulated, and many crimes and injustices have not been clarified, the soldiers still regard him as the supreme and unique one. Lord, no matter how close you were to Lin Qian and the Allied Forces, you can't still stand on the Allied Forces' side today. For example, Lan Yang, just now he and Han Zeye have been refusing to give in to each other at the negotiating table. The reason is simple and Hong Hanshu refuses to give in. , at this moment, he immediately asked Hanze Ye for Gu Tingxian's life. The reason was very simple. Hong Hanshu wanted it!
When Lan Yang offered to help Lin Qian guard Yuzhong, after all, he wanted to atone for Hong Hanshu's sins and accumulate virtue - Hong Hanshu, this very important person, was his lord, his brother, and the one to whom he devoted all his efforts. The one who lives his life with no regrets and unswerving loyalty. What's more, this time it was indeed the Allies who committed the crime first. They provoked Hong Hanshu with provocation. Hong Hanshu's madness further worsened. Gu Tingxian cannot escape the blame. The culprit is the person who hurt Hong Hanshu. Not to mention that Hong Hanshu wants it, Lan Yang himself doesn’t want to spare him!
"My lord wants to kill Tingxian, and we are determined not to let him go. He provoked and caused our army to lose nearly a thousand people in Longshan for no reason." Lan Yang said to Han Zeye without giving up an inch of ground. He has always been Hong Hanshu's spokesperson, his agent when Hong Hanshu was away from the Qilian Mountains. He always sticks to his word, and his aura is by no means weaker than Han Zeye's. "After this battle, our army does not want to take the opportunity to seize much of your territory. But the sins that deserve compensation and the apologies that need to be made must not be taken lightly - with his life, the hatred between our two armies can be alleviated."
The implication is that negotiation can be easy, and the territory can be negotiated. Gu Tingxian's life can pay for most of it. Karma is quite fair. What Lan Yang conveyed was the meaning of Hong Hanshu, who was looking at them with a smile at this time. This is also the wish of most of the indignant people in Qilian Mountain. Lan Yang himself just wants Ting Xian to be punished, not necessarily his life. After all, he and Ting Xian were comrades in Yuzhong. Unfortunately, now Lan Yang has to take care of Qilian Mountain, for the sake of the Lord. It is the duty of the soldiers and their subordinates to obey their orders and pay for their lives, and they cannot help themselves.
And how could Sun Jixiao, who was so sympathetic to Gu Tingxian, be willing to lose his best friend? Hearing these words, his eyes were red. Maybe he thought of the woods where he couldn't get out that night, the heart-to-heart talk before the bonfire and the ambition he blurted out... But The overall situation is the most important thing, so I can only cry with tears in my eyes and say nothing. In this situation, Hong Hanshu is above all else, and Gu Tingxian is still an enemy.
It was impossible for Han Zeye to hand over Gu Tingxian's head to Hong Hanshu, so he argued: "General Gu provoked me first? I wonder who kidnapped our mistress first, and she still refused after occupying it for several months. Only then did he force General Gu to think of such a trick as stealing it privately?!" As the saying goes, war is a continuation of politics. Every time a war is fought, whether it is politically beneficial and morally justified is crucial. Gu Tingxian is not guilty. Han Zeye once summed up the cause of his death as "things happen for a reason and there are extenuating circumstances."
"Who kidnapped your mistress? You know our mistress!" However, Lan Yang's retort shocked all the Allied soldiers present, but everyone in Qilian Mountain felt confident after hearing this - their ideologies are different...
"Bah. The baby is about to run away and I want to return your mistress, how shameless?!" Shen Zhao angrily responded behind Han Zeye. Although he had accused Gu Tingxian in front of others, he did not agree to hand over his family to the enemy. Go and deal with it, and anyone with some sense knows that Han Zeye is right, Gu Tingxian is not going to die.
"That child named Lin Yi is our young master of Qilian Mountain!" Someone said at this time. He was one of Huang Dragonfly's lieutenants. They had not supported Hong Hanshu's marriage to Feng Xiaoyin at the beginning. They had all met them. Hong Hanshu, a matchmaker, was getting married but was robbed. Soon, they were involved in the life experience of Xiao Calf, and viciously rejected Shen Zhao's arguments. If even this point was untenable, the Allied forces would be in trouble in the Battle of Longshan. Totally unreasonable and an unjust teacher.
It's really ridiculous. Whether Gu Tingxian's provocation is "justifiable" or "unreasonable" determines whether Gu Tingxian lives or dies. It is related to whether the Allied forces are just in this battle. It is actually the one who maintains Yu Feng. Who does Xiaoyin belong to... This kind of matter is ironclad, but some people think from a completely opposite angle that the dust has settled, and there are a lot of people...
"You guys..." Shen Zhao was so angry that his face turned blue and white. Han Zeye pulled him and signaled him not to argue anymore, so as not to hurt his mistress's name any more. Shen Zhao could only start with Gu Tingxian's sins. He said angrily: "In any case, General Gu's trip is a private matter. Who would have thought that Lord Hongshan would turn into a madman? As the saying goes, the ignorant is not guilty. General Gu did not want to cause thousands of casualties - all of these deaths and injuries were caused by Lord Hongshan. , why should General Gu be held responsible for someone who indirectly made a mistake!"
After Shen Zhao spoke righteously, he touched the back of his head. He broke into a cold sweat. Unexpectedly, he defended Gu Tingxian. He seemed to realize that he had overly spoken to Gu Tingxian in the heat of the moment. He sighed to himself, I'm going back. You must apologize to him.
"I wonder if my lord will become a madman? I'm just looking for excuses! Didn't you, the anti-gold alliance, hear about the murder on the day my lord left...?!" Huang Dragonfly's lieutenant recalled the tragic deaths of Cheng and Huang, and was so moved. He wanted to speak but stopped.
"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, it's very annoying to mention it! You blamed my lord for the murder that day, framed him and took the opportunity to invade our territory. Why didn't you give us an explanation for so long?!" Shen Zhao thought of Lin Qian's story He was so angry that he couldn't explain his identity. He traced back to the Qilian Mountains' repeated disturbances to the Allied Forces during the Longyou Backyard Fire, and even extended to the Guang'an Underworld Split Incident that he had heard about many years ago... The Allied Forces over the years The quarrel with the Qilian Army could not be finished all night long. We really had to account for each other's casualties, and we really didn't know who owed whom.
"Yan He has an attitude like yours?! If you want to fight me, just do it!" Lieutenant General Huang Dragonfly was also ignited with anger. Following him, Shen Zhao drew his sword and immediately reprimanded him with the Yanling Saber. The swords clashed quickly, sparking a fire and lightning.
The two moves passed, and as soon as the cold light appeared, an ancient sword penetrated the battle situation, and easily separated the two people. The tiger roared and the dragon roared, it was Qingyun Chunyang. Sun Jixiao originally stopped the battle, but his sword skills were specious and deceived him. Shen Zhao's sword hit the dead end and he couldn't pull it back. Han Zeye's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and he whipped his whip in an instant. In a moment, Han Feng was wrapped around him, barely able to stop the sword attack.
Sun Jixiao's face was full of respect, because Han Zeye was hit by Shicai's sword with one strike. He knew that Han Zeye's internal strength was far more than this, and he would have defeated him normally; and Han Zeye would have defeated him. It is not surprising that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. It is inevitable to regret that he does not belong to Lin Qian.
"General Han, I hope you can discipline your subordinates well." Sun Jixiao said coldly, implying that Shen Zhao was of low rank and should not intervene beyond Han Zeye. It was also because Shen Zhao jumped over the rank first that Huang Qingfei's deputy also committed a foul.
"It's obvious who makes the first move." Han Zeye smiled and made a pun, and Sun Jixiao couldn't help but be stunned.
"You, the anti-golden alliance, have made mistakes and still refuse to admit it. Your protection of your own people is really outrageous!!" Lieutenant General Huang Dragonfly persisted.
"What kind of protection! Who said that he was not wrong at all! He just said that it is necessary to force people to die?" Shen Zhao immediately retorted. The friction suddenly stopped, the verbal battle escalated, and suddenly the situation became tense - everyone had their own opinions a moment ago. The quarrel was heated, and after a moment, everyone suddenly stopped talking as if by tacit understanding. So there was a gap of half a moment, and no one spoke, because they didn't know what to say, and the two sides remained silent for a long time.
"Take his head off his neck!" There was silence. Suddenly, this angry shout was heard again, and following the voice, someone spoke sternly, ignored the dispute, and looked majestic in the red shirt.
People who had nothing to do with each other had been arguing about Feng Xiaoyin's ownership since the beginning, but Hong Hanshu didn't have Yin'er in his heart and didn't remember her. She was so strange that she seemed irrelevant - he even forgot that this person was once dead. Everyone needs to love.
What is the phoenix flute chanting? Just listen to the string!
"Don't blame the past, after all, it's too far. Let's talk about this battle alone - it is true that Tingxian ambushed Master Hongshan, who did not want to harm the allies at the time, causing heavy losses to both you and us today, so I apologize to Gu Tingxian for taking the trouble. The sentencing will be discussed separately, so what?" Seeing Hong Hanshu's anger, Hanzeye had no choice but to give in. Before he could bring the topic back to the negotiation, he heard Hong Hanshu reluctantly raise his arms and shout: "Kill him. Him! Kill him! Execute him in Lingchi! Cut him into pieces with a thousand cuts!”
In the end, there was no result, and the negotiation broke down on the spot. Hong Hanshu threatened to cut off heads or territory, otherwise the Shifjord would be leveled. The commander gave the order, and the Allied forces were bound to fight to the end. The Qilian Mountain War Fire Plain was not high enough, so Hong Hanshu was Such a slap in the face, but everyone is willing to fight to the death with the Allies.
"You and I have not even reached a consensus on the 'belonging to the mistress'. This shows how different our ideologies are. The root cause of this war is not who Gu Ting Xian Feng Xiao Yin, but precisely because of you. Our two sides have been separated for many years. Everyone, isn’t the purpose of our coming here just to promote understanding? Why do we reject integration..." Hanze Ye's words are reasonable, but it is a pity that Qilianshan is unreasonable, and his powerful remarks are all ignored. It doesn't matter if it's drowning. Anxiety is always louder than calmness.
The crazy coach led his subordinates to act abnormally. Qilianshan aggressively demanded that the Allies hand over the lives of important generals. Of course, the Allies refused to allow it - it would not be wrong if it was reasonable, so why should they suffer such humiliation!
I really didn't expect that this negotiation about the peaceful coexistence of the two armies would inexplicably divert to the life and death of Tingxian. Qilianshan had forgotten their original intention of coming here for a truce. In fact, it was understandable for Shen Zhao to calm down and think about it carefully. It was all too familiar. scene, people always want to find someone to vent to to eliminate worries and soothe sadness, just like grabbing the life-saving straw when drowning and refusing to let it go. When one person shouts intolerance, the anger of all will resonate. When encountering coldness, If Ye Chenzhao's delusion hinders them, they will inevitably regard them as enemies and their arrogance will increase. Looking at them is like looking at a mirror, but Shen Zhao is much more relieved, and he can finally be unbiased towards Gu Tingxian's mistakes.
The situation was so serious that Han Zeye had to send someone to ask for Lin Qian.
‘Hand over that man!’ When he saw Lin Qian arriving, Hong Hanshu’s expression changed, and his originally empty eyes became serious, and he clearly had an impression of Lin Qian.
During the entire bloody journey from Longshan to Shifjord, except for occasionally remembering the Qilian Nine Guests, he had no human consciousness. He even led the Qilian army to kill and gallop to fight for the territory of the Qilian Mountains. It was all instinct. Maybe it was instinct. The hostility towards Lin Qian is also inertia.
Half man, half beast, over and over again, fighting and stopping, waking up and sleeping.
"The man who came up looking for death, who was beaten by me until he knelt down and begged for mercy, and couldn't even hold a knife, hahaha..." Hong Hanshu suddenly laughed arrogantly, but Lin Qian was stunned by this sentence, although no one could I know that person is Gu Tingxian, but Gu Tingxian should not be associated with such an adjective.
"Lord." Han Zeye shook his head at Lin Qian to indicate that Hong Hanshu was not in his normal state.
If it is not normal, then it is possible that as Hui Ru said, Han Shu lost his original intention on the rainy night in Longshan. He has been almost filled with demonic nature, and the next step is to kill Yin'er. The latest realm of Yin Yang Lock, Lin Qian knew better than anyone else that it was impossible to kill Gu Tingxian, and killing him would not solve the problem. Hong Hanshu would never give up.
"As you said, I have been punished to that extent by you, why bother to kill everyone, it is too much for a human being." This tone really made Hong Hanshu disgusted, but it seemed that he had heard a very familiar sentence somewhere - "Everything must be done in a mode, otherwise you will only regret it in the future." "You must leave room for life and work." "If you do everything too hard, your fate will inevitably end early." Why do I feel sad when I chew...
Lin Qian had already heard about all the previous situations on the way here and knew that Han Zeye's attitude was to protect Gu Tingxian. What was more surprising was that Shen Zhao also defended Gu Tingxian.
Perhaps it was because everyone knew his intentions, even his enemies knew that he was protecting Gu Tingxian - but he could only protect Gu Tingxian's life. As for Gu Tingxian's path, he would never protect him! He must admit his mistakes. Recognize it.
"Of course, just punishing Gu Tingxian to kneel down and beg for mercy is not enough to forgive his sins. This battle at Longshan has affected innocent people. He is indeed the instigator. I also hope that he can learn from his mistakes and correct them." Lin Qian looked at Han. Shu and Lan Yang solemnly said, "The Qilian Mountains suffered nearly a thousand casualties, and so did the Allied forces. What he owes to the Allies can only be repaid if he performs a crime and meritorious service in the future; what he owes to the Qilian Mountains can also be compensated in this way, and it does not necessarily cost him his life."
Lan Yang listened and nodded. Revenge for a person does not necessarily mean simply finding the enemy and killing people with blood. It is about completing the regrets that the person has not completed, or trying to correct the enemy. Everyone uses their talents. Lin Qian always does this. Besides, he deserves to be punished.
Ting Xian is not an enemy, but a sinner. He can serve his sentence by meritorious deeds. He is also punished and suffers the same hardships.
For some reason, the originally overly excited Qilian Mountain people calmed down a bit after hearing Lin Qian's words. It was as if they had found their backbone... No, their backbone. He had been missing for a long time and was back here... Lan Yang
My heart thumped, and I hurriedly looked at Han Shu, but my hands and feet were cold. Why, why, when I saw Lin Qian just now, I felt that he was so similar to my former eldest brother.
Half of the crowd, like Lan Yang, had returned to normal after seeing and hearing Lin Qian and no longer asked for his life, but there were still some who were still under the instigation of Hong Hanshu and had not yet awakened: "It was the same rhetoric over and over again, except for protecting.
There is no sincerity in sophistry. Unless we can come up with a real solution! Otherwise, who will be convinced!"
"The real solution? Good! If they are liquidated over the years, the Anti-Gold Alliance does not owe Qilianshan anything; Zhenluo owes. I, Lin Qian, owe him a Fengxiao Yin! This is also the source of Gu Tingxian's mistakes. Since it is a private matter, then
It’s private. Let’s decide the outcome by force of arms. The confrontation has come to an end. Hong Hanshu, do you dare to accept the challenge?” Lin Qian did not want the Allied forces in the north of Shifjord Bay and the Qilian Mountains to continue to be circuitous, thus rejecting the Allied forces and the Jin army.
To be continued...
