It turns out that war is so cruel.

Looking at the corpses all around him, Guangyuan felt the cruelty of the war for the first time. This cruelty was even more intense and real than the soldiers who fought against the canal with his uncle.

Thinking of his uncle taking more than a thousand people to fight with tens of thousands of Ming troops in Shi Jiadang, Guangyuan felt more and more incompetent.

When he was stunned, there was a sound of hooves in his ears. Then his body was thrust away like a kite and fell heavily to the ground, causing a severe pain in his back.

"Young Governor!"

Song Laogua picked up a long knife from the pile of corpses and slashed at the rear hoof of the Ming army's war horse. The knife broke the hoof. The Ming army immediately flew forward with the broken spear in his hand, and fainted with a "puff" sound.

"I'm fine."

Blood flowed out of Guangyuan's mouth, which was struggling to get up from the ground. It was not that the Ming army's spear had just stabbed him, but that he was injured internally when he fell to the ground.

After several breaths, Guangyuan spit out the blood from his mouth, gritted his teeth and looked around. Uncle Fu Gui and Uncle Dajiang were fighting with the Ming army surrounding him to death.

Around the world, the Ming army's cavalry chased the Huai army's deserters and harvested like they chopped cattle and sheep. In the distance, the figures of the women were no longer visible.

"Young Governor"

Guangyuan suddenly tightened his feet, and he bent over and looked at them, and was stunned. A soldier whose body had been cut off half of his body hugged his feet tightly and struggled to stand up. However, the blood sausage that had been dragged several feet above his waist was connected to his stomach, and his legs were no longer found.

Because of blood loss, the soldier was so weak that he could not speak. After a few struggles, he gave up the idea of ​​standing up and stopped moving. The huge pain had already numbed him. At this moment, he no longer knew the pain.

Wu Qing's lips moved, but she couldn't say anything. The thumb of her right hand moved gently and her head drooped gently.

It just drooped, motionless.

He held Lu Guangyuan's feet with both hands.

Guangyuan burst into tears, and for the first time since the uprising.

He gently pulled his foot out of the soldier's hand, with only one thought in his mind: Kill!

Until the end, I was completely hanged in one breath, and there was no way to take action, so it would be no exaggeration to say that I was just a random blow.

Finally, his arms could no longer be raised and his steps could no longer move. In front of him, several Ming soldiers rushed towards him at the same time. Guangyuan sighed dejectedly, and his fallen body was frozen in everyone's sight.

"Young Governor!"

In a daze, I seemed to hear someone shouting loudly in my ears, but I couldn't hear clearly.

The vision in front of me became blurry, and the sky was dim, as if the sky had collapsed.

Gradually, Guangyuan's mind became blank and he was drowsy.

The eyelids were almost closed, but in the distance, the sound of horse hooves came again.

In a trance, I seemed to hear the ghost cry of Ming army again

Mu Yang and Zheng Biao carefully described the military information coming from Baoying.

"The young governor was seriously injured, but fortunately he rescued Wu Youfu. Chen Dajiang's left commander had already taken over Baoying City Defense and asked the governor whether to attack Huang Degong's headquarters to avenge the dead."

"Just save someone,"

Lu Si waved his hand, "Tell Zuo Pan'an not to care about the Huaixi soldiers, and let them retreat. Even if he wants to avenge Guangyuan, he can't beat others."

Although Zuo Pan'an can fight, he really can't beat Tian Xiong and Ma Degong. Although Huang Degong has only 5,000 cavalry under his command, it is these 5,000 cavalry that have defeated Zhang Xianzhong and dared not stay in Huaixi. The old camp also asked these thousands of cavalry to take over.

If Lu Si remembered correctly, Tian Xiong and Ma Degong were the top ten generals of the Qing Dynasty green camp he mentioned in his previous life, and they all had real skills. Unfortunately, these people with real skills would rather help the Qing Dynasty slaughter their compatriots than dare to fight to the death with these Tartars.

After saying that, he added, "Transfer to my nephew, there is nothing shameful about beating him. As long as he is alive and learns a lesson, there will always be a chance to take revenge in the future. Let him recover from my injuries. After healing, he will have to rush to the front. Who told him that his surname is Lu?"

"Yes, Governor!"

"With Guangyuan's soldiers who died in battle, they will be given pensions from their families. If they don't have family members, they will not be able to leave their bodies alive. They will find a good place in Baoying to properly bury them. Those who come back will be rewarded and asked them to go to Yangzhou for a month to rest and pay more money to them."

"In addition, those who escaped at the last minute will be executed. Whether it is our own people or surrendered soldiers, if they are officers, they will be sent to death in the old camp, and they will not be punished as slaves for five years."

Lu Si said coldly, not caring about this order, how many women and children will be killed in the old camp in Yangzhou.

When the enemy is facing, there is only the most serious punishment.

Lu Si can tolerate defeat, and can tolerate it once or twice. There is nothing to say about defeating others, but if he doesn't even have the courage to fight, he will never be able to bear it.

Zheng Biao wrote down one by one, hesitated and asked how to deal with the Huai'an General Zhang Pengyi.

"What do you think?"

Zhang Pengyi, who had a grudge against him, surrendered, which made Lu Si really confused and felt that his outlook on life had been subverted.

But think about the three kings, who had a deep feud with the Qing Dynasty, especially Shang Kexi, his father and brother, had more than 100 members of the Shang family died in the battle with the Qing army, which was also considered a feud for the family extermination. However, they still surrendered the Qing Dynasty and devoted themselves to the Qing Dynasty. Now the Guanning Army is also the same. None of them has an irreconcilable hatred with the Qing Dynasty, but it does not affect the Guanning Army becoming the vanguard of the Qing Dynasty.

So, what is strange is not Lu Si's values, but the values ​​of this era.

"Zhi Yi thought Zhang Pengyi was a governor who was desperate and surrendered, and his troops did not have a place to establish themselves. Therefore, the governor could be confident in recruiting Zhang Pengyi and entrust Zhang Pengyi with a nameless position. In this way, the official can also do some work on this matter."

Since the founding of the Huai Army, Zhang Pengyi was the first general to surrender, which is of great significance. Zheng Biao meant to play a good role in the introduction of this horse bone, which would be of great benefit to the acquisition of Huai and other Ming troops in Xu.

Lu Si pondered for a moment and said, "What you said is not unreasonable, but I killed someone and kept him doing things under my hands. Do you think I can rest assured?"

"What does the governor mean?"

"Whether it is a real or a fake, whether it is useful or useless, let him Zhang Pengyi stay with his family."

Lu Si looked at Sun Wujin, "You can do this."

"good!"

Sun Wujin was excited and said, "Is it buried?"

"Buried."

Lu Si said casually, then looked at a 16 or 17-year-old boy beside him and ordered: "Go and see your brother for your uncle."

The young man was Lu Si's nephew, and his mother was Lu Xiaoqiao, the daughter of Lu Si's uncle Lu Youcai, and his surname was Li and his name was Yanzong.

When Lu Si first named him, he didn't know that the nephew's name also had the word "Zong", otherwise he would probably have to be called "Hua".
