Jiang Liangce looked a little dazed, as if he was in some kind of confusion.
It was a dark night outside, and it was completely silent at the moment.
When Jiang Liangce was escorted at the foot of the mountain, he listened to the thieves in the mountain gathering together and celebrating!
There were people drinking and drinking, singing, laughing and dancing, and the sound of laughter seemed to resound throughout the entire mountain top!
These sounds were extremely harsh to Jiang Liangce's ears.
When he thought of the brothers who fought with him and how many people died at the hands of these people, he felt extremely sad in his heart!
The brothers who came from hundreds of miles away and spared no effort to fight the aliens without losing their lives died in Shandong.
How could this huge gap not make him feel angry and desolate!
Jiang Liangce wanted to kill himself, but he was unwilling to do so. He didn't understand why the dignified officers and soldiers were defeated by a group of bandits!
For two days and nights, he stayed awake and thought about the battle in Qingyun Valley over and over again. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt!
Every soldier of the Western Army, including the Hebei Forbidden Army, exerted great force to fight and kill in that narrow canyon. The camp of the Liangshan bandits collapsed many times.
However, every time I was on the verge of collapse, I eventually stabilized.
Jiang Liangce couldn't understand why those bandits had such a strong will to fight!
It wasn't until this afternoon that he finally understood what the young soldier said.
This group of people were fighting for themselves. This Liangshan was not as simple as an ordinary bandit at all.
They are clearly a brand new political power, with clear regulations on rewards and punishments for military merit, emphasis on martial arts, and territorial governance.
This is a completely new existence.
It seems that he has lost to this group of people, but in fact he has lost to this ruling system.
Along the way, he saw the villages, the lives of the people, and the stretches of land. This was a completely different ruling zone.
Jiang Liangce even had a chaotic feeling, as if he had arrived in another world.
The navy army also failed, and its defeat was even more miserable than that of the cavalry and infantry armies.
There are many prisoners, nearly 20,000 troops, and now there are more than 10,000 prisoners.
The fate of these people?
Jiang Liangce hopes to save as many people as possible through his own death!
Thinking of this, Jiang Liangce knelt on the ground and said: "General Lin, the defeated general, is not qualified to negotiate terms! Most of the soldiers of the Western Army and the Hebei Forbidden Army are soldiers who fought against Xixia and Liao. They
If they become prisoners of the general, I, Jiang Liangce, am willing to die and ask the general to spare their lives!"
Lin Chong's heart was moved, but he didn't rush to reply and glanced at Wang Zhengqing.
Wang Zhengqing understood this, stepped forward, helped Jiang Liangce up, and said: "Untie the strong man!"
Jiang Liangce was stunned for a moment, a little confused.
Immediately, some of the minions released Jiang Liangce's bonds. Jiang Liangce said, "My dear friend, aren't you afraid that I will kill someone?"
"You have brothers in your heart, how can you live alone for yourself?" Wang Zhengqing said this beautifully.
Jiang Liangce is a warrior, and these words speak to his heart. He has his pride and will not do such a shameful thing.
Wang Zhengqing said: "General Jiang, it is said that everyone has his own master. The Song Dynasty has been a country for a hundred years, and it has valued culture over military affairs. Over the past hundred years, military men have been wary of everywhere. They went out to fight and fight, shed blood and sweat, and when they returned home, they were intimidated by literati.
Even if the general takes his life as a replacement, what will be the fate that awaits these prisoners when they return?"
"This..." Jiang Liangce was speechless for a moment.
What this middle-aged man said was absolutely correct. The imperial court was extremely wary of warriors. This defeat was a huge shame for the imperial court!
How to save such a scene?
He can rescue the prisoners in Liangshan, but where is their return path?
"If the general is released back to the court, will the court trust the general?" Wang Zhengqing asked again, "The officials are fatuous and traitors are now in power. Do you know that in the north, there is a group of ambitious people who are eyeing me, the Song Dynasty? Do you know that in the country?
Those big shots are still drunk and dreaming of life and death, and they are drunk now if they have wine!"
Jiang Liangce remained silent. The treatment of the Western Army in recent years was much worse than in the past.
Not only that, the superiors don't care whether they live or die, they call them here and there, and mobilize them whenever something happens!
Jiang Liangce thought so in his heart, but he still said stubbornly: "We are people who defend the country. Why don't we want to serve the country because of the court? How is that different from animals?"
As soon as these words came out, Wu Song snorted coldly, obviously scorning and disdainful.
Jiang Liangce glared angrily, without any fear, the two of them were like fighting cocks!
Suddenly, Lin Chong said leisurely: "Jiang Liangce, if the entire Western Army was defeated and tens of thousands of people died at the hands of the enemy, would you still say this?"
"What? You...what did you say?" Jiang Liangce's eyes widened and he said in disbelief.
"There are Jin people in the north, and they are extremely powerful. Even your Western Army is no match for them!" Lin Chong said solemnly.
"Impossible! We have fought against Xixia and Liao for many years and have never suffered a major defeat. So who are the Jin people? How can our Western Army be completely defeated? Alarmist talk is meaningless!" Jiang Liangce didn't believe it at all.
What is the Western Army?
It was the pillar in his heart, and even more powerful support. It was the place of glory for their family for generations.
How could the entire army be wiped out?
Jiang Liangce could fail or die. If he said that the Western Army would be destroyed, he would be the first to not believe it.
"Historically, Zhao Kuo lost hundreds of thousands of Zhao people by talking about military affairs on paper. Now with those dog officers in the court, wouldn't the Western Army be the second Zhao Army?" Lin Chong said slowly.
Rumble!
These words were like thunder, leaving Jiang Liangce stunned. Is this a prophecy?
"When we bombarded Jiangzhou City, Cai Jing became angry. For his own selfish purposes, he dispatched the Western Army guarding the border to Shandong to destroy the bandits. Don't you think it's too childish?" Lin Chong asked, "The Western Army is an army in the mountains.
He is good at offensive and defensive warfare in the northwest. If one day, the court is in danger, those pig-headed officials will be like Zhao Kuo. I ask the Western Army, even if it is good at fighting, how can it survive?"
"this....."
Jiang Liangce broke into a cold sweat. At this moment, all his self-proclaimed pride collapsed from the outside world, and all his past perceptions collapsed!
He was not prophesying, he seemed to be seeing the future and talking about what would happen in the future!
This Lin Chong is rumored to be the instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Army in Tokyo?
Why does such a person have such knowledge?
Is this Liangshan?
Jiang Liangce had a look of fear on his face. At this moment, he stared at Lin Chong and fell to the ground in admiration. Unable to control himself anymore, he knelt on the ground again and said loudly: "General, please save my Western Army!"
Hiss~~~
Good guy!
This stubborn guy actually gave in!
All the generals present were stunned!
OMG!
This eloquence and prediction are really amazing!
Wu Yong stood aside and almost clapped his hands. He secretly took out a small notebook, dipped his saliva in a small brush, and carefully recorded every word and deed of the boss!
Lin Chong laughed loudly, stood up and said, "General Jiang, have you thought about it?"
