King Qiansong understood what Old Man Ji meant. 『言*情*首*发.vodtw.cobr>

That's right, these hostages are dead, but in fact, it doesn't have much impact on Qiansong, what matters is their elders in the court.

These people should also know the consequences of paying this huge ransom, but if they ignore the hostages, it will chill the hearts of these people.

Old Man Ji advocated not paying the ransom, but directly sending people to save them, and at that time, the hostages would almost certainly be killed and injured, and even all of them would be killed by the grassland people to vent their anger.

But he made another rescue operation, but the grassland people were too brutal and the operation was not successful.

At that time, some people will still complain about the court in their hearts, but no one can say anything, because the court did not ignore their heirs, but quickly sent troops to save them.

Ordinary people would even think that the court was tough, and they would have a stronger hostility towards the steppe people.

It's just that it would be too ruthless to do so, which is tantamount to pronouncing the death of more than 150 people in advance

Although this was ostensibly a move to rescue the hostages, in fact, there was no intention to actually rescue them from the beginning, but purely to calm the effects of this incident.

"You can only do this, you can only prepare for the worst as if they are dead. ”

Old Man Ji said this sentence was also extremely difficult, as if the lives of the one hundred and fifty people were not lives, but just a tiny number.

This tiny number is not worth mentioning at all compared to the overall situation of Qiansong, so he made a choice to give up.

King Qiansong opened his mouth slightly, unable to speak.

As the king of the Thousand Song Dynasty, he knows far more things than ordinary people. The hostages on Dale Mountain were taken hostage, and after the incident was reported, he already knew most of the details.

He knew that Lu Ning, the son of Lu Xiu, the servant of the Criminal Department, was the first to die, he knew that Tan Yi was killed by Na Long, and he even knew the full names of the remaining one hundred and fifty-seven people who were captured.

Because this qiē has been written in detail by Qiu Wendong in the tantric music presented to him.

Therefore, he knew that two of the hundred and fifty-seven names began with the word Ji. They are Ji Bingyun and Ji He.

They are the granddaughters and grandsons of Old Man Ji

It is impossible for Old Man Ji not to know about the two of them going to Pingwei City.

He knew that his own granddaughter and grandson had also been robbed, and he knew that they were still alive and there was hope of being saved, but he wanted to treat them as if they were dead.

What is done is just the overall situation of Qiansong.

What a ruthless heart. How cold

The king of the Thousand Song Dynasty asked himself if there were his own children among the people who were robbed. Even if he is from the most rumored royal family, I am afraid that he will not be able to make this decision so quickly.

All hearts are flesh and blood, and all men are selfish.

He slowly stood up and gave Old Man Ji a long look. Old Man Ji didn't help him, the expression on his face was obscure, and no one knew what he was thinking at this time.

"Let me think about it again," King Qiansong looked very tired.

Old Man Ji arched his hand slightly, got up and walked towards the study.

From beginning to end, both of them deliberately did not mention Ji Bingyun and Ji He, as if the two of them had nothing to do with this matter.

King Qiansong lowered his head. He couldn't bear to look at Old Man Ji's slightly rickety and stumbling back.

bang

The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground woke him up in deep thought, and then the exclamations of the palace eunuchs outside sounded.

"What's wrong with you, sir?"

"Adult, Adult"

King Qiansong hurriedly looked up, only to see that outside the threshold of the study, Old Man Ji fell to the ground motionless, as if he had tripped over the threshold.

He rushed over quickly, pushing aside the two palace people who had arrived first. squatted on the ground and picked up Old Man Ji's light and old body, only to find that his face had been broken, and his whole body had fainted.

"Someone, someone call the Imperial Doctor," he exclaimed.

An hour later, the news that the steppe people had taken one hundred and fifty-seven hostages was completely spread, even the peddlers and pawns in the market had already learned of the news.

Because the text of Qiansong's rescue of the hostages has been posted all over the street.

The text briefly explains the course of the incident, just. The description of the amount of ransom demanded by the steppe people has been expanded tenfold

For a time, the crowd in Dingchuan City was indignant, and everyone asked for war.

Even if the families of those hostages understood that the rescue might cause the grassland people to kill and vent their anger, they were powerless to say anything in the face of such a sky-high amount of compensation, so they could only choose to support the king of Qiansong.

They took the initiative to send cultivators from their own families to escort them. Fully assisted the military and joined this vigorous hostage rescue operation.

Nalong's more than 2,000 people were held hostage, and after traveling for hundreds of miles, there were still no pursuers behind them.

He couldn't help wiping a cold sweat in his heart, in fact, he was also afraid that the Qiansong people would not stop doing anything, and they would really leave all of them there regardless of the safety of the hostages.

He knew that there were at least seven or eight people in the Extreme Realm on Changhua Mountain who had not come down at that time, and if he continued to fight, when those people joined Qiu Wendong's side, not to mention the more than 2,000 people under his command, even he might not be able to retreat with his whole body.

However, now that they have completely entered the grassland, it is useless for them to chase after them.

On the grassland, how can the Thousand Song Dynasty people be as fast as the grassland cavalry

It seems that the value of this group of hostages is even greater than I imagined, and I knew that I should raise the price a little more

It's all to blame on Su Mo's damn guy, he didn't show up at the critical moment, which made him lack confidence, let alone kill Qiu Wendong by the way

Especially this time, so many people have died on his side, don't think that I will share the ransom with him equally, it would be very good to be able to have two and eight by himself, hum

At this time, he was extremely dissatisfied with Su Mona, if it wasn't for his delay, his own people would not have died so much.

If he had come down earlier and joined forces with him, Qiu Wendong would definitely not have survived

His heart was full of anger, and then tens of thousands of steppe cavalry appeared in front of him.

When he saw these people, he was even more angry.

The border with Qiansong is his territory for thousands of miles, and the people who appear here are naturally his people.

He had arranged for these people to meet and support him in advance, because he could not muster so many men for a while before he set off.

He and Su Mo had already been ambushed near Dale Mountain yesterday, and now that the sky was almost darkening, this group of people had just appeared.

It was longer than he had expected. It's too late

If this group of people had appeared earlier, he wouldn't even need to use hostages to blackmail Qiu Wendong, but would have directly waved his army to level all the Thousand Song defenders in Changhua Mountain

Although the goal of taking hostages was eventually accomplished, it did not make him happy.

If there had been any accident at Changhua Mountain at that time, he would have been wiped out by now

So when the tens of thousands of cavalry marched more than ten zhang in front of him, he couldn't help but scold: "What are you two eating, why did you two come so late, did you two eat dung, did you two eat dung, your legs were weak, right?"

In the face of his scolding, the two leaders of the 10,000-person team on the opposite side who were named by him did not say a word. I didn't dare to refute half a sentence.

The strength of the grassland people is respected, and there is a big difference in the realm. The status is a world away.

Although Sado and Hetu, who were cultivating in the Extreme Realm, were now in command of tens of thousands of people, they did not dare to make a mistake in front of Nalong.

The two hurriedly stepped forward to apologize and explain.

Their first words startled Naron and nearly fell off his horse.

"Suma has returned to the embrace of the gods"

"Say what you say," Na Long was stunned, wondering if he had misheard.

"Master Sumo is dead," Sado repeated.

Suddenly, all the people behind Nalong who heard these words changed their faces.

There are more than 2,500 people behind Nalong, of which 2,000 are Su Mo's descendants, and as soon as this news came out, it seemed that a pot exploded behind him.

"You talk nonsense, I don't believe how Lord Sumo could die, you dare to curse Lord Sumo," Uza roared and jumped off his horse, grabbing Sado's collar.

His eyes were red. As if Sado no longer admitted that he was lying, he was going to duel with the other party.

Not only him, but more than 2,000 people in the rear almost pulled out their scimitars in unison, which looked like they were going to choose people to devour.

Su Mo died, and they, like the tens of thousands of cavalrymen before, were naturally angry in their hearts. There was even a hint of trepidation. But at the same time, there are other reasons why they are so excited.

The grassland people are not as united as Qiansong, just like Su Mo, who killed a lot of people when he came to power.

His descendants attached themselves to him and became the masters of the territory.

If he died. Then someone else will soon take over his territory.

The best fate for these two thousand people is to be adopted by the new master, but because they are not the descendants of the new master, their status will plummet, and they will never be better than now.

And the worse outcome is to be sent out, or the next time you fight the Moon Country. Use them as cannon fodder death squads.

And before the arrival of the new master, their territory will also be harassed by the surrounding territories because there is no realm breaking master

Therefore, when Su Mo died, they were even more sad and excited than their father and mother died, and they naturally couldn't accept this result

Sado was afraid of Nalong, but he was not afraid of Utcha, who was also in the Extreme.

He didn't care how fierce Ucha's expression was, and pushed him away, and then took a cloth bag from the saddle behind him.

He handed the bag forward, and everyone seemed to understand what was inside.

With trembling hands, Utza untied the sack tremblingly.

Then he cried out loud.

Not only him, but also the 2,000 people behind him wept in unison.

The cloth bag had been unraveled, and what appeared inside was Su Mo's head.

The blood under the skull hadn't dried yet, and the eyes hadn't closed, and Naron could see the intensity of disbelief in his round open eyes.

He himself couldn't believe it.

Su Mo actually died, and he died like this, who killed him

One moment ago, he was complaining that he hadn't appeared for a long time, and the next moment, his head appeared in front of him.

This strong impact, even Na Long in the early stage of breaking through the realm couldn't help but feel frightened for a while

Su Mo's strength is similar to him, that person can kill him, what about himself

He managed to calm his mind and calmly asked, "How did he die?" to be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation.
