Long Wind and Flying Waves ~ 23:08:21

After Qin Qiong's words were finished, everyone was silent again.

The Tang army retreated more than 60 miles at once, which seems to be a big defeat, in fact, for the characteristics of many places in the Tubo Mountains, small population, and few cities, especially in some parts of the city area, many places are bare, there are no natural dangers, and there are no checkpoints, there is not much difference between entering sixty miles and retreating sixty miles, the Tang Dynasty is fully prepared, that is, the infantry is also equipped with horses, this distance can be ignored, and the biggest problem now is how to treat those Tang people who act as cannon fodder.

Because of the army's poor protection, they were captured and tortured in this bitter cold place, and they were already ashamed, and now they are still attacking them, how can they bear it? Especially those women who have been humiliated to the point of being inhuman, the faces with tears in fear, the naked bodies, and the shocking scars are like a big stone that presses on the hearts of the generals, making everyone breathless, and they can have no scruples about serving the enemy, but can they do it to these people of the Tang Dynasty?

Everyone present knew the solution, but no one spoke, because it couldn't be done, cherishing feathers was one reason, and human morality was another.

Hou Junji saw that everyone didn't speak, so he had to break the deadlock in a deep voice: "If you have any ideas, you can say it, we have crossed thousands of rivers and mountains, and now we are just the last step, we can't give up all our efforts." ”

Old Demon King Cheng slammed his fist on the case, gritted his teeth and said: "Otherwise, our old brothers will share blessings and difficulties, and issue orders together, that is, the emperor will blame it, and we will bear it together, and if there is any infamy, we will also carry it together." You can't take a step out of the door, and in the end, all your efforts will be wasted. ”

"Lao Cheng is right" Qin Qiong said with a nonchalant face: "The lives of those people are fate, but the lives of the soldiers under our command are not lives?" There were only 35,000 of those people, but in order to avoid them, we suffered tens of thousands of casualties, so we lost a lot. ”

Li Jing squinted his eyes and said: "No poison, no husband, these ordinary people dare to use weapons against the king's army, it is simply a rebellion, we say they are traitors." took refuge in Tibet, and killing them was to eliminate harm to the country, and when they said it, others could not refute it. ”

It's really worthy of the god of war, and he thought of a way to crack it so quickly. In this way, not only is there no fault. Don't be infamy. It can also turn combat feats, which is simply turning decay into magic, killing two birds with one stone.

In normal times, everyone applauded early in the morning, but as soon as Li Jing's words fell, everyone fell silent again.

on the battlefield. Although the winner is the king and the loser is the villain, there is also a difference, and the winner is based on strength. That royal road; Relying on false accusations and treacherous tricks to succeed, it is a small way, a crooked way, you can't save people, and you still pour dirty water on other people's heads, which is not the work of a gentleman, nor is it the work of a famous general.

Several people are staring at Hou Junji, he is the main general, naturally he takes the idea, and being the main general is like this, he has the merit to lead the big head, and he has a big share of the black pot.

Hou Junji also hesitated, in fact, these two methods, he had long thought of them, but he didn't want to say it, what is the matter, share it together, now seeing everyone looking at him, for a while his heart was like a war between heaven and man, for a while he felt that this method was good, and then he felt that another method was wonderful, and he didn't make up his mind for a long time, just when Hou Junji was the most entangled, Niu Jinda, who had not spoken, spoke:

"General Hou, the last general is willing to be the vanguard and capture some cities, please approve the general."

Old Demon King Cheng was shocked when he heard this, and turned his head and shouted: "Old Niu, you"

Obviously, in order to sabotage Songtsen Gampo's conspiracy, Niu Jinda came out alone to bear the infamy, sacrifice himself, and fulfill those present.

Hou Junji was also taken aback, although his heart was relieved, and he congratulated that someone was willing to stand up, but his face was still impassive, and he said anxiously: "General Niu, if there is anything, let's discuss it slowly and advance and retreat together." ”

Niu Jinda shook his head and said: "There is nothing to discuss, several of you, you are all successful people, my old Niu is not high or low, this life is like this, such a trivial matter, several generals have to be dirty, not worth it, I Lao Niu was seriously injured a few times when he was young, and now his body is not good, he is about to retreat, several brothers have unlimited futures, so there is no need to wade into this troubled water, as for the rebellion, forget it, paper can't hold the fire, how can you block the mouth of Youyou." ”

Old Demon King Cheng frowned and said, "Old Niu, then you are too wronged. ”

"Hehe, maybe it's a credit" Niu Jinda finished laughing at himself and continued: "If the emperor is to blame, a few brothers will have to help intercede." ”

"General Niu, have you really decided to do this?" Hou Junji confirmed one more time.

"Okay, that's it, don't persuade the brothers, don't fight with my old cow, let's discuss the battle arrangements for tomorrow."

In the city, behind the thick city gate, the ragged Tang people sat weakly on the ground, men and women huddled together, although the sun was shining, but they did not dare to move, because there were Tibetan soldiers with weapons around them.

Shen Jincai sat in the crowd, looked at the Tubo soldiers with a smiling face on the side, and then looked at his lower body covered with only a rag, and couldn't help but feel gloomy in his heart.

Three years ago, he was still a well-known good guy in the village, he had studied for a few years, and he had practiced martial arts with the elders of the family, he was dignified, and there were more than ten acres of good land at home.

Now, it's being sent in as cannon fodder again.

Yesterday he ran quite fast, and the Tang army did not raise the butcher knife, and this morning I heard that the Tang army went and returned, and today I will be cannon fodder again, I just hope that luck is as good as yesterday.

While he was thinking, he saw a team of Tubo soldiers carrying buckets of things over, and smelled a tempting aroma of meat from a distance, Shen Jincai couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, he didn't remember the last time he ate meat, how did these people come here, didn't they send meat to their slaves.

"Hundred Household Chiefs, why are we giving meat to these slaves? You know, now that we are in control, we have a limited amount every day, which is too wasteful. A Tibetan soldier couldn't help but say.

The man who was the head of a hundred households sneered: "The Tang army will attack in a while, if you don't feed these two-legged sheep, your legs will be weak, how can you impact the camp of the Tang Dynasty, you go?" ”

"No, no, no, those firebolts are too powerful. I don't even know how I died. ”

"These two sheep are really useful, we defeated the Tang Army yesterday, it is their merit, and it is worth it to give them some meat to eat."

The soldier said with some contempt: "These people really have no bones and seeds, in exchange for our Tibetan warriors." It's been spelled for a long time. ”

"Hey, it's better not to fight. If not. Where can there be such a slave to use, how can there be so many beauties who can play wantonly, but unfortunately, these women are already crippled, and now they look disgusting. ”

"The head of a hundred households, it is better to use these slaves as a threat. It would be nice to ask Datang to send more beauties for us to enjoy. ”

"Haha"

Shen Jincai clenched his fists and clenched his teeth tightly, but he held back. He lived on the border between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, he would have known some simple Tubo dialect, in Tubo for three years, he had mastered the Tubo language early in the morning, when the two Tubo soldiers discussed, he heard it clearly, especially when it came to the two-legged sheep, he was even more angry, he knew that the two-legged sheep was said to be five nonsense when the Chinese people appeared, those Hu people when there was no military food, they caught the people with the army, regarded people as animals, killed people to take meat to satisfy hunger, inhumane, two-legged sheep, that is the biggest pain in the hearts of the Chinese people.

What does it mean to regard the people of the Tang Dynasty here as two-legged sheep now? "Ouch" Just when Shen Jincai was angry, a Tubo soldier staggered, and then became furious, punching and stomping at an old man who was about fifty years old, and scolded while beating: "Damn cheap slave, where do you put your feet?" I'll kick you to death, I'll kick you to death. ”

It turned out that the soldier was chatting so vigorously that he didn't notice that there was a foot in front of him, and when he didn't pay attention, he was tripped up, so the soldier put all the blame on this old man, and unceremoniously punched and kicked him, ignoring the fact that he was beaten, an old man who was over half a hundred years old.

This old man Shen Jincai knew, he was originally a trader surnamed Chen, he had been robbed here for five years, and he had a big belly, but now he has become a skinny old man who is about to die.

"Okay, Rurum, hurry up and get down to business, don't beat people to death, if there are fewer people, it won't have any effect, didn't you listen to what Lord Zampu said? You can't just kill these cheap slaves. The head of the hundred households said a little impatiently.

"Yes, yes, the head of a hundred households." The soldier answered, as if he was puzzled, and kicked Lao Chen's head again, muttering words of good luck in his mouth, and then continued to walk.

"Old Chen, old Chen, are you okay?" As soon as the two Tibetan soldiers left, Shen Jincai hurriedly picked up Lao Chen's head, and whispered while wiping the blood from the corners of his mouth for him.

"Ahem... cough..."The old Chen Tou coughed twice, and then said with a wry smile: "For the time being, there is still one breath, and I can't die, I think he will beat my bones to death, and it will be a hundred." ”

Shen Jincai hurriedly persuaded him: "Old Chen, don't keep thinking about death, the emperor has sent someone to save us, don't worry, we will definitely be able to go home then, don't keep talking about death, death, unlucky." ”

"Home?" There was a trace of heat in the eyes of the old Chen Tou, but he soon became dim again, shook his head and said: "The Tubo people used us to kill the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, watching the soldiers fall one by one, my old Chen Tou really didn't feel good in his heart, we are all sinners of the Tang Dynasty, strictly speaking, we are traitors, even if the emperor has a large number of them, he doesn't care, but you see, we have the marks of slaves tattooed on our faces and bodies, and we are tortured so that people don't look like people, ghosts don't look like ghosts, even if we go back, we don't have the face to see the villagers and elders, and we will lose face to our family, so it is better to die here, Once you've done it, you don't have to suffer the white eyes of others. ”

After a pause, Old Chen shook his head and said, "Actually, we can now say that the walking dead are not individuals. ”

Zombie? Old Chen Tou didn't expect the same, every time he said a word, the light in Shen Jincai's eyes faded, and when it came to the walking dead, his two eyes were not bright, and his hands kept rubbing each other vigorously, looking very entangled.........

At this time, the Tibetan soldiers put down the meat and said loudly: "We Zampu have pity on you, and give you untouchables meat, and each person is only allowed to take a piece, and remember to run faster for a while, and if you run slowly, you will be killed, okay, hurry up and eat." ”

After speaking, someone shouted again in Datang dialect.

As soon as the voice fell, those hungry people of the Tang Dynasty who had not smelled meat for a long time rushed up, regardless of the heat, picked up a piece and gnawed it desperately, the old Chen Tou, who was dying just now, was not slow, and after a while, he snatched back the meat, and gave Shen Jincai a piece, stuffed it into his hand and said: "Brother, eat, just die, don't be a starving ghost, if you become a starving ghost, then you won't be able to vote for a good family in the next life." ”

Shen Jincai paused for a moment, and soon had a little energy, picked up the piece of meat, and bit it desperately (to be continued......)
