Sheng Zhaojun's face was full of guilt. This guilt was like gnawing at the bones and searing the heart. The bear-like man knelt there, sobbing.
No one knows what happened, but whatever happened doesn't matter.
You killed Paoze's relatives who died in the battle. This is not just a loss of life. No matter what the reason is, it cannot be justified and there is no justifiable reason.
"I…"
Huang Laosi stood up, walked down the jade steps, and came step by step to the crying Sheng Zhaojun: "I'll give you one last chance. Do you have any secrets? If so, tell me!"
The fourth man's face turned cold: "If you don't tell me and have no hidden secrets, then I will not only take away your county, but also your life!"
As the emperor, Chang Chengyou had many negative qualities, such as money, money, money, money, money, etc. But this emperor with many negative qualities was originally a general on horseback, so he was most unlucky.
Shame on this kind of thing.
It is very common in the army to ask one's wife to sacrifice one's son. Blood has long been thicker than water among the soldiers.
There is an old saying among the people that after the death of a brother, the uncle becomes the sister-in-law, and when the sister dies, the sister fills the house. It cannot be ruled out that the literal meaning is against ethics and morals, but the core meaning is the word "take care of", one's own family, take care of one's own family.
In the army, there is also a saying like this, "Paoze has a high-ranking wife and a young child. I am a high-ranking wife and a young child. After Paoze dies in battle, it does not mean that the surviving ones must marry other people's widows and let their sons be their own sons. Rather, they should
Try your best to take care of them and take care of them like family members. This is what soldiers in the army must abide by. It is both a rule and a friendship. No one wants to take advantage or suffer a loss, because they may also die in battle, and if they die in battle,
, the worried wife and children will be taken care of by the closest person, Paoze.
In this world, there are no single mothers who can start a business and turn around, Bai Fumei said. Without a man in the family, the world will collapse, and the orphans and widows will not live long.
The fourth son was born in the army, and he cared about this kind of thing the most. In fact, when the Qianqi Battalion was first established, it was to give the guards who followed him an end and a way to survive. Otherwise, the majestic emperor's personal soldiers
, there are hundreds of people, how is it possible that only three or five are literate, and the fourth child has not only had this habit of deducting Sun An's money recently, he has done it a long time ago. If the fourth child does not want to take care of his former comrades,
Not to mention that Zhang Songling would not be allowed to run rampant for so long.
"No…no secrets."
Sheng Zhaojun, who had already burst into tears, seemed to have lost his soul and was just crying. In the political hall, the dignified military heroes and the majestic Shencao tribe leader on the grassland were like a baby in confinement, only crying.
Huang Laosi is about to lose all his patience: "If you don't tell me, I will treat you as if you really have no secret, and you have killed innocent people indiscriminately, and killed Paoze's relatives indiscriminately, and say, you have hidden secrets!"
Sheng Zhaojun was still crying, filled with deep sadness and unbreakable guilt.
Huang Laosi shook his sleeves and turned around suddenly: "Take this beast down!"
Sun An walked over quickly and called the palace guard.
Seeing two palace guards walking in, and following Sun An's signal to push Sheng Zhaojun down, Chu Qing suddenly ran out.
"Wait!"
Chu Qing, who had already lost his mind in a hurry, kicked the palace guard on the butt: "Get away!"
The court was in an uproar, but the fourth child sighed silently.
The civil servants looked at each other in confusion.
The general meaning is, we are going to kick the palace guard in front of the court. Should we... take the opportunity to kick him?
Civil servants, you looked at me and I looked at you, but in the end they all lowered their heads, pretending that nothing had happened.
"Sheng Zhaojun!"
Chu Qing roared and stood in front of Sheng Zhaojun: "Look up and look at me."
Sheng Zhaojun was still crying there.
"I don't believe you would kill innocent people indiscriminately. You are taking care of dozens of wives and children on the grassland. I don't believe you would do such a thing."
Tang Zhinian interjected: "Commander Chu, back then I..."
"My commander..." Chu Qing looked at Tang Zhinian coldly: "I only warn you once, shut up!"
Under Chu Qing's gaze, Tang Zhinian's heart beat wildly, but he finally chose to remain silent.
"Sheng Zhaojun!"
Chu Qing lowered his head again and looked at Sheng Zhaojun who was crying bitterly: "Tell me, what is your name, Paoze?"
Sheng Zhaojun just cried and remained indifferent.
Chu Qing suddenly raised his foot and kicked Sheng Zhaojun on the shoulder.
Then... Brother Dajun didn't move at all, but Chu Qing took three steps back and almost didn't fall.
Huang Laosi turned his head away and muttered something embarrassing.
Chu Qing was also furious.
You're so devastated that you're crying like a bird, why are you still as big as a mountain and can't even be kicked up?
In fact, according to Chu Qing's script, he kicked Sheng Zhaojun down and then asked this guy what was going on. Unfortunately, he overestimated his own strength and underestimated Brother Dajun's physique.
"Looking at you crying like this, I only used 10% of my strength, huh."
Chu Qing subconsciously rubbed his waist, then looked at the ministers: "Oh, by the way, my waist has been bad these days."
No one paid any attention to him.
A palace guard wearing armor next to him asked softly: "Master Chu, how about I give you a kick?"
Chu Qing was confused, and then he saw that the one who served as the palace guard today was actually Niu Ben, the king of emotional intelligence. The one he kicked just now was Niu Ben.
Too lazy to pay attention to this guy, Chu Qing knelt down and said, "Tell me, what's the name of your robe?"
Sheng Zhaojun's eyes were dull, tears were still flowing, as if he had lost his soul: "Zhang...Zhang Ju."
"Why did Zhang Ju's family appear outside the customs?"
Brother Dajun became silent again and cried even harder.
Chu Qing turned around and looked at Tang Zhinian: "Why do Zhang Ju's relatives appear outside the pass?"
Tang Zhinian was eager for Chu Qing to ask for details: "The army came out of the pass and organized the people to transport grain and grass to the soldiers outside the pass. The manpower was not enough, far from enough. The strong men in Wangyuan City have been incorporated into the auxiliary barracks, and many relatives of the army have
, voluntarily escorted the grain and grass to be transported outside the customs. This beast's comrade has a young family. I think it was because of this that when I came out of the customs to see him..."
"That's enough, I'll ask you, you'll say it again!"
"Zhang Ju died in the battle?" Chu Qing squatted down, wiped Sheng Zhaojun's tears, and said softly: "I don't need you to explain anything, I just need you to tell me the truth. After telling me, even if you commit suicide, I don't care. Now,
I just want to hear the truth."
As he spoke, he kept wiping the tears on Sheng Zhaojun's face. Brother Dajun finally came back to his senses. His eyes were still dull and his face was gloomy.
"Killed by the Ryo Rangers, killed... just like that, killed."
"Why did you stay with Zhang Ju's family?"
"The last general...the last general will escort the grain and grass together."
"How many people, how many troops, and how many people were there at that time."
Sheng Zhaojun closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to recall the scene twelve years ago, and burst into tears again, but he finally opened his mouth, speaking intermittently.
"Four hundred carts of food, fifty troops, three hundred people..."
"The manpower is not enough, far from enough. The people have all left the city. Zhang Ju's mother-in-law, his mother-in-law's two sisters, and her mother-in-law's three children, three, all three are daughters, don't worry about these three children
, let the baby follow them out of the city, sitting in the car, smiling...humming a song, the three girls, the three babies, humming a song..."
"The little flag that sent the message... the little flag said that the Guoyi camp was crippled and scattered, and there was no food. Let us... let us send the food to Nanyang Slope on the map. Originally, it was said to be a hundred miles outside the city.
, but getting further and further away, even if I want to go back, I can’t go back..."
"We're here, we're all here, but..."
"Brothers from Ke Guoyi Camp are not here..."
"Here are the rangers, hundreds of Liangrong rangers..."
Sheng Zhaojun's pupils gradually focused, and he looked at Chu Qing, still crying: "The people have no horses, so they can't run away. The horses that pull the carts can't be used. If they are used, the food will be robbed. Without the food, Guo Yi
If we camp those infantry, we won’t have anything to eat, and we won’t be able to get back alive..."
Chu Qing nodded: "What happened after that?"
"Fight to the death, fight to the death, fight to the death... The people are fighting to the death, and Zhang Ju and I are also fighting to the death, fighting to the death, guarding food, fighting to the death..."
"Winning or losing?"
To be continued...
