Chapter 219: Explain the Aftermath
Hurriedly meeting with the soldiers, Liu Dalong breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately killed those guys who were killing people indiscriminately, while shouting and calming down the others with his sword.
On the other hand, the people around Ghost Cry are also gathering more and more, no matter what, his knife does not save people on weekdays, plus the force is strong, and he is a person on Shu Mountain, and his prestige is enough, so although there are many people who are jealous and hate him, there are also many people who are willing to believe in him and even worship him.
As the men and horses on both sides pressed towards the middle, the chaos subsided little by little. The hot-headed soldiers calmed down and joined the crowd to suppress the others.
As for those who were completely insane, some were killed, and some fled into the darkness.
It took more than an hour, and finally, the whole camp was back in order.
People who calmed down began to pack up their things and count the damage.
Fortunately, out of tacit understanding, there was no loss of grain and grass. However, the losses in other areas are huge.
Hundreds of people died, more than 100 were missing, and almost everyone was injured.
Half of the tents were burned, half of the swords, guns, bows and crossbows were damaged, and more than half of the stock of arrows was used.
Nearly half of the officers were killed or severely injured by their men, and the body of the chief bookkeeper was found, and he was stabbed more than fifty times in a row, and the corpse was terrible.
Chen Yu was lucky, and he had half a breath left, and was rescued by a ghost cry. He was also stabbed by his own subordinates, because one of his subordinates was found drinking in the camp and was found to be drinking, Chen Yu whipped him on this ground, he thought that Chen Yu was unfair and the punishment was too harsh, so he hated Chen Yu.
After being rescued by the ghost cry, Chen Yu had palpitations in his heart, and looked at the other subordinates with more vigilance.
When the whole mess was cleaned up and the sky was dawning, everyone was tired, but they didn't want to stay, and hurriedly left here.
During the march, Liu Dalong looked at the soldiers who were silent and only cared about the journey, and his heart was heavy. The rift between the officers and the soldiers was further widened in this camp roar, and the suspicion between people became a little heavier.
Ghost Cry rode to Liu Dalong's side, looking at the crowded, marching like a long snake spreading the Shu army, he couldn't help but sigh: "There are only 2,000 people left!"
When Liu Dalong heard this, he also sighed helplessly: "Yes, there are only 2,000 people left." ”
Most of them died on the battlefield, only some of them were unbearable, found an opportunity to flee and left, and some of them were consumed internally, and the rest was only so little.
This time to support the Great Zhou, the price paid by the Shu army was too great, Liu Dalong seemed to have seen the city full of paper money flying like snow, white lights hanging in front of every house, women and children pulling cloths and crying.
Chen Wu's father and son were both killed in battle, and it is likely that he will face this situation in the future, and how should he face those heartbroken fathers and villagers.
Maybe......
Thinking of what happened last night, Liu Dalong began to shake again, perhaps, he will not have to face these situations in the future, the road is still long, anything can happen, maybe he will die in the middle of the road before he returns to Bashu.
"What do you think, cheer up, you're the commander of an army. Ghost Cry awakened his contemplation: "There are only 2,000 people left, and you will have to take them back with the ashes of your brothers in their entirety." ”
Liu Dalong smiled reluctantly: "I will do my best." ”
"That's fine. The ghost cried and nodded, pinched the horse's belly slightly, and the war horse under his crotch quickened his pace and was about to leave.
"Wait......" Liu Dalong stopped the ghost crying: "Lord ghost, what if...... I said yes, if something happens to me, I'll ask the oni-sama to take my brothers home. ”
The ghost cried and was stunned for a moment, and said, "You'll be fine." ”
"But what if, who knows what the future holds?"
Devil May Cry solemnly promised: "If there is a case, I will naturally do my best to help." ”
"I don't want help from adults, but adults to take my brothers home instead of me. ”
The ghost cried and shook his head: "I am not a member of the Shu army after all, I am afraid that I will not be able to serve the public." ”
"Although the ghost lord is not a member of the Shu army, there are countless living adults, and they are powerful, and many people are very convinced of the lord. And don't forget your other identity. ”
"What identity?" the ghost cried a little inexplicably.
"Chang Gung Xingjun. Liu Dalong's expression looked very serious.
The ghost cried a little embarrassed: "Who believes it!"
"I believe it, in fact, I didn't believe it at first, but since I saw the living knife of the adult, I have become suspicious of the faith, and after the lord killed the leader of the entire witch clan, I completely believed it. Liu Dalong said very sincerely: "Not only I believe it, but many brothers believe that if I die, it will be easy for adults to take charge of the Shu army." ”
No wonder although some people wanted to kill him last night, some people believed in him so much that they were even willing to use their chests to block knives for him. But this trust makes Ghost Cry feel very heavy.
"Okay, if it happens, I'll take your place and take my brothers home. ”
"That's fine. Liu Dalong showed a relaxed smile on his face: "Lord Ghost, I have a small private request. ”
"You say. ”
Liu Dalong blushed a little and said embarrassedly: "I'...... My family is not prosperous, a single lineage, it doesn't matter if I die, there is still a kid in the family, but I haven't learned the marksmanship yet, so if I die, it will be broken. ”
"What do you mean?" Ghost Cry already had a vague guess.
"I want to ask the adults to help me pass on the marksmanship to my boy, the adult's knife skills are superb, as the so-called one-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred ”
Ghost Cry hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Okay! Every night when I rest, I will come to you and learn your marksmanship." ”
It's not that the ghost cries and covets Liu Dalong's family marksmanship, but to make Liu Dalong feel at ease.
Sure enough, Liu Dalong smiled brightly, only feeling relaxed, and he could no longer live up to the heaviness just now.
"Ghost big brother, ghost big brother ......" Cai Wei hurriedly rode over, her voice was full of joy, attracting everyone's attention.
Ghost Cry asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
"Elder Feng has sent news that my sister has crossed the river safely. ”
"What? that's great!" Ghost Cry said with a smile of surprise on his face.
......
On the ninth day of the fourth month, the Qin army in the territory of the Great Zhou was ambushed one after another, and the eldest prince felt bad, feeling that the Great Zhou was afraid of changes, so he hurriedly sent out to serve them, asking them to find a way to cross the frontier and ask for help in the Great Qin.
Then at noon, he attacked a county town called Heyin County, broke through the city in the afternoon, followed by the reinforcement of the city defense, and put on a posture of strict defense.
On the same day, Ma Qubing suddenly attacked, killing on a large scale, and stained Luoyang City with blood. With forceful means to erase all hidden dangers, more than a dozen wealthy families with other thoughts suffered the disaster of annihilation, and the heads were rolling, and the entire Luoyang City fell into fear for a while.
On the tenth day of the first month of April, Heyin County was surrounded by the border troops of Dazhou Town, and Ma Qubing thought that Luoyang City was no longer in trouble, so he led 8,000 cavalry out of the city. However, this time out of the city, Ma Quai's illness did not go south to quell the chaos, but went west, which made the trembling princes and ministers scratch their heads.
