Chapter 488 My heart is like a rock
As a general, Zhang Jin should not let the situation develop.
Wu Nian once thought that this brother Zhang was too complacent and no longer wanted to make progress?
Or are you indecisive and unable to bear to deal with your own soldiers?
There was only one thing. Wu Nian never doubted the friendship between Zhang Jin and himself.
But he didn't expect that Zhang Jin actually fell ill. And he fell asleep for five days? No one reported this.
How did this happen?
With a maid galloping ahead to lead the way, Wu Nian arrived outside Zhang Jin's bedroom. Standing at the door, he smelled a strong smell of medicine and frowned.
When he saw Zhang Jin, he couldn't believe his eyes. Zhang Jin, who had always been strong and tall, actually looked weak, lying on the bed as if he was out of breath, covered with a thick quilt.
"Brother." Wu Nian's eyes were splitting. He came to the edge of the bed and sat down. He wanted to reach out and shake Zhang Jin, but he stopped midway.
He was afraid that his shaking would shake the person away.
This is Zhang Jin. A tough guy. A guy who can only laugh even if you punch him. How could he be like this?
Wu Nian's eyes turned red quickly, and he held back tears. After taking a deep breath, Wu Nian stood up and looked at Mrs. Zhang.
She was lowering her head and weeping, trying not to cry.
"Sister-in-law, let's go out and talk." Wu Nian suppressed his sadness and said softly.
"Yeah." Mrs. Zhang hummed softly, walked out of the bedroom with Wu Nian, and sat down on the bench in the corridor.
"Sister-in-law, please tell me exactly what is going on. How is his illness? Can it be cured?"
Wu Nian turned his head and asked Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang raised her sleeves to wipe her tears and choked up: "The symptoms started half a month ago. My husband was often weak and slept more. He didn't take it seriously at the time. Later he became ill. He said that now
General, you are busy with things, so don't let us send someone to tell the general."
"The doctor took a look. He said he was injured and bleeding too much, and the root was damaged. He said that if he doesn't wake up within three days, I'm afraid he's going to... to... wu wu wu."
Seeing Mrs. Zhang hiding her face and crying, Wu Nian was also heartbroken.
This is absolutely unexpected.
Never expected that.
How could a tough man end up like this? This is the calamity of swordsmanship. It is common for brave generals to be injured and bleed, and the general will inevitably die immediately.
Wu Nian was also panicking. This brother couldn't let him die like this. But what could be done?
A county as big as Yuan County must have medical experts, and they have seen them all.
By the way, you can also send people to Jiang County quickly to find Ruyan and save the situation. But this time, I'm afraid it's too late.
What to do?
Say one thousand, preach ten thousand.
Although Wu Nian has ambitions for hegemony, he is not a hero. He has many weaknesses and values love and justice.
Zhang Jin was an old brother who joined the army with him, and they both crawled out of the dead.
But he had to be responsible and hold back the sadness in his heart. He raised his head and smiled at Mrs. Zhang and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. Although our brothers are engaged in killing people, killing one person is to save ten people. His merits are immeasurable. God will
Bless him."
"Yeah." Mrs. Zhang said yes, but she still cried.
Wu Nian sighed and was about to say something when he heard a sudden movement and raised his head to look ahead. He saw Wang Youxiao and three thousand households walking towards him.
"You guys support Madam and go down first." Wu Nian's face suddenly turned cold, he waved his right hand, raised his head and said to the maid.
"Yes." Several maids responded together and helped Mrs. Zhang down.
"General."
Wang Youxiao and three thousand households came to Wu Nian. Wang Youxiao bowed, while the three thousand households knelt down on one knee.
"You guys are really awesome. I gave Yuan County to you, and this is how you repay me?" Wu Nian's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and his tone was very bad.
"Please punish me, General." The three thousand households were a little frightened. After hearing this, they immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"Everyone, go down. Withdraw the troops." Wu Nian did not punish him, but waved his right hand and said.
"Yes." The three thousand households were not happy. Instead, they became more and more depressed. They stood up and turned around to go down.
Wu Nian stood up, clasping his hands behind his back and looking at Wang Youxiao.
Although Wang Youxiao had a clear conscience, he still shuddered under Wu Nian's eyes and lowered his head slightly.
"If I ordered you to let Liu Zhongting go, what would you do?" Wu Nian asked expressionlessly.
Wang Youxiao suddenly raised his head, showing a look of disbelief.
How can this be?
This is a murderous felony.
Is the general also fatuous? In other words, the general is also afraid, afraid of the army's backlash?
"I will kill Liu Zhongting first." Wang Youxiao clenched his fists, his face turned red, he raised his head and looked at Wu Nian without taking a step back.
"How dare you disobey my orders?" Wu Nian frowned, with a serious expression on his face. His aura was fully activated, pressing towards Wang Youxiao.
As the saying goes.
When the emperor was angry, he laid down millions of corpses and bled for thousands of miles.
Of course Wu Nian did not reach that position, but he was a general who assisted the Han Dynasty. In these three counties, he had the authority of the emperor and had the power of life and death.
His anger was no small matter.
But Wang Youxiao actually managed to hold it back, still clenching his fists, looking at Wu Nian, and said word by word: "Of course I will obey correct orders. Of course I will not obey incorrect orders."
"General, have you forgotten your original intention? You raised the army to expel the Tartars and regain Liaodong. Liu Zhongting committed suicide without authorization and you did not deal with it. How can you convince the people?"
"Liu Zhongting asked his soldiers to cultivate fields and use them as slaves. The generals of Liaodong learned from this. Sooner or later, the army will lose its combat effectiveness."
"General."
Wu Nian smiled, put away his aura, calmed down, waved his hand and said, "Go down."
"General?!!!!" Wang Youxiao was stunned for a moment, what was going on? I was already mentally prepared to be dealt with.
It doesn't matter whether you are killed or buried. Just let me finish my words.
Now tell me, please go down.
What does this mean?
"Go on down. I am still Wu Nian. Even if one day the world becomes barren and the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten, my temper will be the same smelly and hard. I only kill the people I want to kill and only fuck the women I want to fuck.
Do what I want to do."
Wu Nian raised his head with pride, stretched out his right hand and patted Wang Youxiao on the shoulder. He lowered his head with a smile on his face and said, "Go down. I won't let you or everyone down.
"
Only then did Wang Youxiao understand. The pressure on his body relaxed, and his blood boiled. This is the general. The general I believe in. The general who knows right from wrong.
A general I would die for.
"Yes." Wang Youxiao held his head high and responded loudly, then turned around and walked away briskly.
After watching Wang Youxiao leave, Wu Nian sighed again, with a look of worry on his face. He said: "Brother, you have to survive. We have to expel the Tartars and regain Liaodong together. Fight together.
