Hengdian, once a bloody battlefield, where countless soldiers were buried, although the war has been over for more than half a month, but the traces of the war are still vivid. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Under the watchful eye of the miner battalion, more than a thousand soldiers drawn from the surrendered Qin army troops have been cleaning the battlefield. The soldiers of the Qin army were buried in a huge pit, accompanied by their war horses who died here, and thousands of corpses were buried together, which made Lu Dayuan sad.

Covered in the soil, there is no trace of these once vivid lives in the world, only a lone stone monument stands in the center, reminding future generations of the stories that once happened here.

"General Lu, thank you for allowing me to erect a monument for these brothers." Lu Dayuan wiped a handful of tears and arched his hand towards Lu Feng, the leader of the miners' battalion standing beside him. "With this stele, their relatives in China will come to pay tribute to them in the future, and they will always be able to find a place to burn incense and paper."

"It's just human nature." When I was fighting, I didn't feel that the war was over, and seeing thousands of corpses buried together, even people like Lu Feng felt a little trembling in their hearts, and this was only a loss for one side. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty did not have burials, and they chose to cremate the remains of the soldiers who died in the war, and then take the ashes back to China and give them to their families. These days, Hengdian has been filled with smoke, and the smell of burning corpses has been wafting here.

The miners' battalion was the Ming army with the heaviest casualties, the 5,000-miners' battalion, after half a month, counting the soldiers who had returned with minor injuries, it was only barely enough for 2,000 people, and nearly 3,000 miners' battalion soldiers fell here, counting the soldiers killed in the cavalry battalion and the fire battalion, the Ming army paid more than 4,000 losses in this battle.

The tragedy of the war was the most brutal since Lu Feng joined the army.

"I wonder how many more people will die?" As if touched by the sight of his eyes, Lu Dayuan said sadly: "Is His Majesty the Emperor of your country ready to launch an attack on Qingzhou County?" How long will this battle be fought? ”

"So that General Lu knows that between our two countries, this battle will not be fought for the time being, and the crown prince of your country has signed a contract with His Majesty the Emperor of our country, and we are ready to withdraw our troops." After adjusting his mood, Lu Feng looked at Lu Dayuan with a smile.

"Is it His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Lu Dayuan was slightly surprised.

"Well, General Lu, your Kaiping King Deng Hong has been arrested. I'm afraid that I won't be able to get out of Yongdu in this life, and it's hard to say whether I can save my life. Lu Feng said lightly.

"What?" Lu Dayuan changed color. "How so?"

"Why isn't that?" Lu Feng said: "Deng Hong provoked this war without authorization, if he wins, it would be okay to say, but he failed, he lost very badly, doesn't he need to give an explanation to the Qin court and the people?" ”

Lu Dayuan took a deep breath, was silent, and said after a while: "Daqin, I'm just afraid that it's going to be messed up." ”

Lu Feng shrugged: "General Lu, if I ask an off-topic question, you don't have to answer me." Are you more loyal to the Qin court, or are you more loyal to Deng Hong? ”

After listening to Lu Feng's question, Lu Dayuan was a little dazed, and thought for a long time before saying: "In my opinion, being loyal to the prince is loyal to Daqin!" Since the day I joined the army, I have been under the command of the prince, starting from the prince's personal guard, and continuing to become a general. The prince treats me like a father and son, and his kindness is like a mountain. ”

"Got it!" Lu Feng nodded.

"Since the two countries have ceased fighting, when are you going to release us back?" Lu Dayuan asked.

"Well, it's hard to say." Lu Feng hesitated for a moment, "There is one thing, I can kindly tell General Lu that when the crown prince of your country was negotiating with His Majesty the Emperor, he did not mention the issue between you and these 10,000 soldiers of the Qin army. It's as if he's forgotten about it. If he doesn't mention it, we naturally won't rush to post it upside down. ”

Lu Dayuan's expression was miserable, looking at the direction of Qin State, and he said for a while; "The prince was defeated and imprisoned, and then the court will definitely spare no effort to fight the power of the prince, and all the power in the hands of the prince will be returned to the court, generals like me and the army loyal to the prince, His Royal Highness the prince naturally does not want us to return to cause chaos for him."

Lu Feng patted Lu Dayuan's shoulder sympathetically, "This is politics, those of us who are generals, sometimes we really don't understand, but fortunately, our Ming Dynasty is not as good as you Qin State, we don't need to think about these problems." General Lu, in fact, speaking of which, this matter may not be bad for you, and if you think about it on the other hand, it may not be a good thing. ”

"Where does the good come from?" Lu Dayuan asked rhetorically.

"General Lu, think about it, although Deng Hong was imprisoned, but the Deng family is the same old family as the royal Ma family, the power can be said to be all over the government and the opposition, deep-rooted, the emperor wants to wipe the Deng family, this battle, even if the Deng family is now in an absolute disadvantage, but I think it is not without the power to fight back, this scene, I'm afraid there is still to sing, if you go back, you will be involuntarily involved in it, if you don't do it well, it will be the end of the death and disrepute, it is better to stay in our Ming Kingdom, sit and watch the wind and clouds rise!"

"Do you want to be a prisoner of war in the Ming Kingdom?" Lu Dayuan muttered.

Lu Feng smiled: "General Lu, there are many differences between our Ming and your Qin Kingdom, you just take this opportunity to take a walk in Daming, take a look, and see what is the difference between our Ming and your Qin Kingdom?" You haven't been to Yuejing City, the prosperity there is not as good as Chang'an's Shangjing. ”

"I'm a prisoner of war, can I still walk around?" Lu Dayuan was a little unconvinced.

"I'm afraid other people can't, but General Lu's status is different, even if he is a prisoner of war, he will be well treated." Lu Feng said: "Of course, the premise is that your subordinates don't have anything to do. ”

"What else can they do?" Lu Dayuan smiled bitterly: "Haven't we already divided them into charges?" One meal a day, I saw that my soldiers were so hungry that their legs were shaking. ”

"It's temporary." Lu Feng smiled and said, "Now my soldiers are also eating twice a day, and the food is a little tight." Isn't the two sides not fighting now? As soon as the form is relaxed, everything will naturally be fine. Of course, General Lu, there is something I have to remind you of before the incident. ”

"Please make it clear to the general."

"We have a rule in the Ming Dynasty, but we don't raise idlers, even if you are prisoners of war, so at a certain time, these prisoners of war may have to work and exchange their own hands for food." Lu Feng Road.

"I've been mentally prepared for this."

"That's good, and ask General Lu to tell your generals about the current situation in the country, and then tell me what I mean, the management of prisoners of war has always been a big problem, if you and your officers are willing to cooperate, that's the best thing, we really don't want anything embarrassing or even bloodshed on both sides." Lu Feng Road.

Lu Dayuan nodded heavily.

"People are killed by knives, I am fish and meat, and now the country is in chaos, and I don't know what will happen in the future, even if it is for the sake of the families of these soldiers, I will not let them mess around."

Lu Feng shook his head: "General Lu, after a while, you will find that in our Ming Dynasty, even if you are a prisoner of war, maybe these soldiers will have a better life than your Qin State, except that there is no freedom for the time being." It's a little more difficult in front of us, but it's not still wartime, we all need to take a breather! ”

Lu Dayuan smiled bitterly. As the commander of this surrendered army, his treatment was indeed good, and the Ming army did not even treat him as an enemy general, very friendly, but this does not change the facts.

Both of them fell silent for a moment. But suddenly, both of them felt something at the same time, and they turned around and looked in the other direction.

Where, there is a bare tree without leaves, this originally leafy tree, half a month ago, Qin Feng took away all the leaves, and now, next to this big tree, there is a person sitting cross-legged.

Huo Guang, since that day he had an enlightenment, he has been sitting there cross-legged, not eating, drinking, and sleeping.

"It looks like it's going to happen." Lu Feng was overjoyed, "General Lu, how fortunate you and I are to be able to witness the promotion of a great grandmaster with our own eyes, let's go, take a look." ”

Lu Dayuan's heart chuckled again, Da Ming, it was really like the rising sun, not only won victory on the battlefield, but also in front of the top masters, and now it is far superior to the Qin State. In a short period of time, he had witnessed Qin Feng's promotion to Grandmaster, and now, was he going to see another one appear?

Grandpa Le was a little nervous. He was left here by Qin Feng to take care of Huo Guang in the midst of enlightenment, and now, of course, he also knew that Huo Guang was about to become, and he was both happy and envious. He is also a cultivator at the peak of the ninth level, but he will end here, because of the disability of his body, he will never be able to advance to the rank of grandmaster in this life.

Lu Dayuan and Lu Feng rushed over and stood side by side with him, Shu Chang also came over, these days, he has been busy treating the soldiers here, because of his existence, the soldiers of the Ming army have died a lot. But this time he was standing far away, and when Qin Feng was done that day, he almost landed. He didn't want to take this risk. He hasn't married his beloved Wang Yueyao yet.

A low groan came out of the mouth of Huo Guang, who was sitting on the ground, from low to high-pitched, and gradually resounded through the clouds, on the battlefield of Hengdian, all the people turned their heads to look here in shock, if only those who had achieved martial arts cultivation felt Huo Guang's transformation before, but now, everyone noticed the abnormality.

In the long whistle, Huo Guang stood up, stretched out his hand, and shook it gently, and there was a slight sound of kaka from the big tree in the distance, and in the blink of an eye, the tree was covered with cracks, and in the palpitations of everyone, like gravel, it collapsed, whether it was the main pole or the branches, all of them were shaken into powder.

Huo Guang looked up to the sky and smiled.
