Liangzhou soldiers have already begun to take action.
Because Li Chengqian had already asked Cheng Huailiang to notify all lower-level generals.
No sound is allowed under any circumstances, so everything goes on in such silence.
The soldiers who died in Liangzhou were like ghosts at night, wandering in the canyon.
They used various methods to fix the corpses of the soldiers who had died in battle, and made them sit or stand.
Then, under the command of the thousands and centurions, they climbed up the rope ladder in an orderly manner and climbed all the way to the top of the mountain to gather.
At this moment, Li Chengqian was standing in front of the captain who was shot blind in one eye.
He hesitated for a long time before saying that he wanted to abandon these injured soldiers.
He originally thought that the captain would yell at him.
Call him cold-blooded and callous.
But who would have expected that the captain just grinned at Li Chengqian.
"Your Highness, you don't have to be melancholy or feel guilty about this."
"It is our honor to be able to cover the retreat of more brothers. It is also the last thing we can do for our brothers and the Tang Dynasty."
"But Your Highness, before I die, I have one more thing to ask of you."
He slowly raised his hand and pulled off a small cloth man soaked in blood from his armor.
"I hope that Your Highness can send this cloth man back to my hometown and into the hands of my wife."
"Because I have promised her a long time ago that one day when she sees this cloth man, it will be time for her to remarry..."
"I know she is a straightforward person. She would never leave if she didn't see this man."
"She has suffered so much with me, and I don't want her to be a widow for me anymore."
As soon as these words came out, Li Chengqian couldn't help but blush.
What a damn year.
This damn war...
Damn yourself.
If he hadn't given random orders, these brothers wouldn't have died... > These wounded soldiers will not be abandoned...
If he hadn't been soft-hearted, if he hadn't been indecisive, maybe those damn barbarians would have died instead of his brothers...
"Don't worry, I will definitely deliver these words, and I will definitely deliver the things..."
Li Chengqian held the cloth man tightly, resisting the urge to cry, and turned around and walked away.
The captain struggled to get up from the ground, kowtowed to Li Chengqian's back, opened and closed his mouth, and silently shouted: "Subordinate, I would like to send you your highness..."
That night, Li Chengqian led three thousand Liangzhou soldiers to escape from the trap.
That night, five hundred wounded soldiers volunteered to sacrifice themselves and stay where they were, delaying time for their brothers.
When Li Chengqian stood on the top of the mountain and looked down the mountain, all he saw were the wounded soldiers struggling to get up from the ground.
Or endure the pain to chat with the dead soldiers who were made up as living people.
Or they gather together in groups, pretending that nothing happened...
Seeing this scene, Li Chengqian finally understood the meaning of the saying, "I believe it is evil to have a boy, but it is good to have a girl."
If you give birth to a daughter, you can marry her into the neighbors, and you can even visit her if you want to see her.
But after giving birth to a son, in this troubled world, he might die in that unknown valley.
In the end, it can only turn into the white bones that no one can restrain...
At that moment, Li Chengqian's eyes kept changing.
One moment it's as cold as ice, and the next moment it's as aggrieved as a child about to cry...
Perhaps, in such an era, soft-hearted people really cannot survive...
Li Chengqian looked up and smiled with tears in his eyes.
"Leave your ordinary days for the next life."
"In this life, I just want to be a guy who will live in infamy!"
After saying this, he raised his hand to wipe away the tears from his eyes.
, followed the footsteps of many soldiers with a cold expression, and went down the mountain together.
…
To be honest, the acting skills of these wounded soldiers are truly unspeakable.
At least for the next two or three days, Nan Shiwei noticed nothing unusual.
It wasn't until this day that Master Wei of the Nanshi came to inspect the camp and he discovered something was wrong in the canyon.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about the soldiers. Except for a few who are still moving, the rest are sitting or standing motionless.
Seeing this strange atmosphere, General Wei of the Southern Chamber turned around and asked the commander guarding the fortifications: "Have the Tang thieves done anything strange in the past few days?"
"not at all."
After the captain finished saying this, he suddenly remembered something.
He said directly: "On the nights of the past few days, some Tang thieves ran under the fortifications and collected the remains of the fallen on their side."
Gathering the remains of the fallen?
They were all in such a situation, why did they collect the remains?
At this moment, the general suddenly felt a lightning flashing in his heart.
The next moment, he looked straight into the canyon, looking straight at the motionless Liangzhou soldiers.
Associating the remains of the soldiers with the scene in front of him, he reacted almost immediately.
General Wei of Nanshi ran directly down the fortification and shouted: "Come here, let the soldiers gather and launch an attack into the canyon immediately!"
Hearing this, several lieutenants around him were very puzzled.
One of them said directly: "General, didn't you say that you would encircle but not attack, and trap this Tang bandit army to death inside?"
"I'm so sleepy!"
The face of General Wei of the South Chamber was as gloomy as water: "Now, I'm afraid there's no one alive in the canyon!"
Hearing this, the lieutenants looked at each other in shock.
One of them asked tentatively: "You mean, these Tang thieves are all dead?"
As soon as he said this, he directly sent General Wei of the Southern Chamber to Laughed angrily.
He kicked him over and knocked the general to the ground.
He pointed at the other person's nose and yelled: "Are you a pig brain?"
After saying this, he didn't hesitate and went directly to gather the troops.
And when he gathered his soldiers and rushed into the canyon, where were the shadows of Liangzhou soldiers in the canyon?
In other words, where are the Liangzhou soldiers alive?
In the entire canyon, there were only a few wounded soldiers still wailing, and the rest were almost all corpses.
There was also a corpse sitting on a boulder, holding a knife in both hands. The body was not falling, and the only remaining eye was still wide open and glaring forward.
Seeing this scene, General Wei of Nanshi felt dizzy and almost fainted.
Fortunately, the deputy general next to him reacted quickly and supported him in time.
Otherwise, this guy would probably have to fall directly to the ground.
After he came to his senses, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Hurry up, chase quickly, we must not let this army of Tang thieves escape!"
Now that two days have passed, if I want to catch up now, is it too late?
At this moment, Li Chengqian had also led a group of troops to the south of Chuo River, less than one mile away from King Wei's tent in the South Chamber.
…
In the jungle.
Changsun rushed through the crowd and came to Li Chengqian.
"Your Highness, as expected, there are not many people left in Prince Wei's tent in the Southern Chamber."
"According to my observation, there are only a thousand combatable soldiers at most around the king's tent."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian slowly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a cold smile.
He raised his spear, stood up slowly, and said, "Brothers, I know you are very tired and hungry."
"But the opportunity must not be missed and it will never come again. The advantage we have right now is obtained by the brothers in the canyon who sacrificed their lives for us."
"So, I will not restrict you from now on. You can kill and vent as much as you want. If anyone dares to talk nonsense, I will resist!"
