The bearded man slowly walked up to the young man named Si Yuan, touched his head and smiled.
The young man was touched like this, and he immediately ducked aside, joking with a look of disgust on his face, "Uncle Kai, I have no arms, please stop touching my head..."
The bearded man immediately laughed "haha", clapped his hands and said, "You kid, I have watched you grow up, why don't you let me touch your head now?"
Si Yuan raised his head, stared at the beard, and said proudly, "Because I have grown up, I am a man now!"
"Okay, okay, our Si Yuan is a man now, and Uncle Kai won't touch him anymore." The bearded man laughed, obviously very happy. Then he continued, "I found a lot of trouble from that man today.
Soul coins, there are hundreds of silver soul coins, take it back and give it to your mother to see a doctor." After saying that, Beard threw a bag of coins to Si Yuan, but his stubbled face suddenly became serious.
, and suddenly sighed deeply.
The young man took the coin and stared at it for a long time. Moisture gradually appeared in the corners of his eyes. He said in a broken voice to the bearded man, "Uncle Kai, you have given me the battle soul coins countless times. I can't ask for it anymore."
"After hesitating for a long time, Si Yuan finally made a decision, gritted his teeth secretly in his heart, and handed the money bag back.
"Silly boy, since your mother got sick three years ago, you have sold everything in your house to get medical treatment. How can you, a child who has just turned sixteen, rely on you to treat your mother? Uncle Kai can help.
There's only so much I can do. Watching you grow up, how can I bear to let you carry this burden alone..." With a long tail tone, the bearded face is full of kindness at the moment, like an elder to me.
Such meticulous care as the younger generation.
"But..." The young man wanted to say something more but was interrupted by the bearded man, "Stop it, why are you so polite to Uncle Kai? Go home and give your mother medicine."
Si Yuan finally accepted the bag of coins, firstly because he couldn't resist; secondly because he had no other choice.
"Okay, go back quickly. It's my turn to be on duty today, so I'll leave first." Bearded Beard touched Si Yuan's head, then turned around and left slowly. This time, Si Yuan did not avoid Bearded Beard's big hand.
Looking at the departing figure, at this moment the young man seemed to see what hardship was. This man should never be like this. It was all because of himself!
The young man's thoughts quietly drifted back to the past:
Three years ago, the battle between the Blue Floating Empire and the Yeshen Empire was at its most intense. It was also at that time that the "Blue Night Battle" that alarmed the four empires broke out. This war directly caused millions of casualties in both countries.
Starving people are everywhere, and wherever the war goes, flesh, blood and bones can be seen everywhere, just like hell on earth.
The war broke out at the No. 1 Pass in the Ye Shen Empire, the Haozhou Beast Pass. At that time, after several years of recuperation, the Lanfu Empire had become stronger. Yuan Congfeng, the commander-in-chief of its three armies, marched into the Beast Pass with a million troops without anyone knowing.
He wanted to quickly win the Beast Pass within three days, and then march to the Central Plains and enter the hinterland of the Nightfall Empire. When the Beast Pass guard heard that millions of troops were attacking the Beast Pass, he was frightened and lost his sense of proportion.
He was at a loss and could only write to the Emperor of the Night to send troops to help.
However, the Beast Pass is tens of thousands of miles away from the imperial capital. Even if you use the best eagles to convey the message, it will still take about a day. Although it takes one day to reach the imperial capital, the emperor ordered troops to be transferred from other states to the Beast Pass.
The process, back and forth, takes about seven days; and the Beast Pass originally only had an army of 100,000 people, so how to withstand an army of one million people for seven days has become the most important thing at the moment.
Guo Kai, now known as Bearded, was the deputy general of the general at the Beast Gate at that time. He was appointed as the left-leaning general and led ten thousand people. After hearing the news at that time, Guo Kai did not act overly nervous and calmly thought about countermeasures.
, finally on the first night of the army's attack, he made a crazy decision. When he told the guard of Beast Pass about this decision, the guard called him "madman". After a long game, finally, Beast Pass
The guard agreed to his decision.
This decision was that Guo Kai personally led more than 30,000 people to attack the Blue Fu Empire's gateway closest to the Yechen Empire: Jiutian Pass. This decision was also a strategy that Guo Kai thought about for a long time before finally deciding on, because Yuan Congfeng personally led a million
The army must not have expected that they would dare to attack his Jiutian Pass so crazily. There must not be many defenders at Jiutian Pass. If they can use Jiutian Pass to contain Yuan Congfeng's offensive, there will be hope if they persist for seven days.
The final result was that Yuan Congfeng never expected that the guardian of the Beast Pass would dare to divide his troops to attack his Jiutian Pass when he could not protect himself. The millions of troops were forced to neither advance nor retreat. Subsequently, Yuan Congfeng sent three
The 100,000-strong army retreated to support the Jiutian Pass, but he still insisted on attacking the Beast Pass; however, Guo Kai immediately set off to return to the Beast Pass after feinting to attack the Jiutian Pass. In the end, the 100,000-strong army, against the 700,000-strong army, dispersed a total of 300,000 Yuan's troops.
of military strength.
The Beast Pass finally lingered for seven days under such circumstances, waiting for the arrival of reinforcements. In the end, Yuan Congfeng had no choice but to lead his army to retreat, declaring the end of the "Blue Night Battle".
And Guo Kai was deservedly dubbed the "Fantastic General". At that time, the Emperor of the Night even said boldly, "There is such a general in the Beast Pass, which can ensure that I will be safe and sound for a hundred years."
But just when Guo Kai had a bright future, he suddenly resigned from the post of guard general of the beast gate and returned to his hometown of Liluo City to become a small commander of the city's army. From a commander in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops
How much reason do you need to be willing to become a squad leader with only hundreds of people under his command?
No, he was just doing it for a child, so that the child's shoulders could bear the heavy burden later.
When he heard about what happened in Si Yuan's family, he resolutely resigned from his post as guard general and came back to protect the child. Because he watched the child grow up, he regarded him as his own son.
What does it mean to be a man? A man is a man who is responsible and accountable!
Si Yuan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, calmed down the discomfort in his heart, breathed out slowly, then carried the stall and the exercises inside, and walked towards the end of the road. At this moment, the young man's waist seemed to be extremely strong.
Stand tall and straight; at this moment, what I did during the day was just one word, "filial piety".
Liu Tao in the darkness couldn't help but sigh heavily, thinking of his own experience, and then looking at the young man who had disappeared from his eyes on the road, he couldn't help but murmured a classic saying from his previous life: "Happiness in the world all has the same happiness, but unfortunately
