(Ah Cao also wanted to ask for red envelopes for monthly passes, but I searched around and couldn’t find anything. Forget it, I used money to buy monthly passes and it’s on the list. Ah Cao has never done it before. I always think about it. Once I do it, I always think about it.
He was so opportunistic that he even lost the thought of writing a book.
But also, I searched around for the red envelopes, and then, my mind was full of confusion. For more than an hour, I only coded a few hundred words. I should just code honestly. If I don’t make the list, it’s just that. I can compete.
Let’s fight again at the end of the month. If we can’t fight, we won’t have to worry about it.)
One of the three men suddenly roared and jumped up, as if he had thrown Li Po off his horse.
The sword flashed, and a human head rose into the sky.
Li Po, who had just raised his foot to kick the person away, was immediately splashed with blood on his face.
The headless corpse rolled down on the grassland. Li Po was furious, wiped the blood from his face, and turned to glare at Yuan Muye.
I saw this guy stroking his scabbard in distress and muttering, "These nameless people don't deserve to die under my sword, but I want to..."
Li Po almost fainted from anger.

That night, the Sui army camped in the woods. Early the next morning, the cavalry went out in all directions around the lake and began to clean up the tribes around the lake.
Of the four tribes, two migrated away overnight, and the rest were slaughtered.
This battle was very easy, but the Sui army finally suffered casualties. A dozen Sui soldiers lay forever on the grassland next to the big lake.
After a not too fierce fight, the Sui army became more and more violent.
This kind of killing without distinction between men, women, old and young is most likely to arouse the bestiality in soldiers. When they overcome their psychological barriers under military orders, they are not far away from the beasts.
The difference is that they are still bound by military discipline.
Continuing to the north, within four or five days, they successively attacked two tribes, and the Sui army finally stopped.
Because the soldiers began to tire. As the commander, Li Po felt more and more clearly the depressing atmosphere in the Sui army.
The difference between new recruits and veterans is clearly revealed at this moment.
The cruelty of the war that suddenly appeared in front of them made them reluctant to speak anymore. They could no longer hear the hearty and rough laughter. The mixture of guilt and exhaustion began to erode their bodies and minds.
When camping, many people also start tossing and turning and find it difficult to fall asleep.
However, Li Po felt that the situation was not bad.
They were different from the people who came after them. They were strong and rough, and their moral concept of respecting the strong made them feel very weak.
It's just that they are too tired and their spirits are very tense, so they have such a change. In fact, if you take them back at this time and take a rest, they will be able to recover perfectly.
Things like mental illness and trauma will automatically stay away from these tough guys who grew up in the cold winds of the North.
This is an age that doesn’t require much mercy and tolerance.
The cool river water played a nocturne beside me, and the summer wind that began to blow became much stronger on the grassland.
Li Po didn't have time to enjoy the quietness of the grassland and the spacious night.
It has come to May, the early summer season in the grassland, and the rain has begun to increase, and the green stubble on the land has grown to knee height.
This is a paradise for cavalry, but it may also become a grave for cavalry at any time.
That night, he summoned hundreds of Sui army officers and soldiers. Like Li Po, they all smelled bad.
The only difference from Li Po is that they are more tired and anxious, with vast grasslands, monotonous green, boring marches, and cruel killings. The war-weary emotions are constantly accumulating and passing among them.
Let them no longer be able to say such heroic words as being loyal to the country and getting a huge scar on their head. 8 novels`
Li Po stood there, brewing the necessary emotions. At this moment, no matter how ruthless or calm he was, he had to become a good actor and make himself speak like a hero and a true commander-in-chief.
"You should be proud. The Turks are about to move south. We, yes, just us, may be the last army of the Sui Dynasty to appear on the grassland."
"You should also know that the emperor is leading his troops on his third expedition to attack Goguryeo. It is expected that the Turks will go south. I would do the same thing if it were me."
"So, this place will be the territory of the Turks from now on. Isn't it very close to us?"
The officers and soldiers of the Sui army became commotion, and whispers gradually began to sound.
Li Po waved his arms vigorously, adding to the sense of power in his words.
"In Liaodong, I have been to Liaodong. Many brave and fearless Sui soldiers died there, and they are still bleeding and fighting there to this day."
"Many people know that the Turks will not miss this golden opportunity. The Turks will definitely come south to attack us. But the civil strife in the Sui Dynasty makes people have no time to look north. And, hey, when the Turks come, everyone will die.
They are ordinary people, and we Sui army officers and soldiers without any family background."
"Many people only need to bend down to get canonized by the Turks, and they can also enjoy wealth and glory that we can't imagine."
"But we are different from them. No matter how deep we bury our heads, the Turks will not look down upon us."
"To tell you the truth, I have never seen any Turks or fought with them, but I know what will happen if the Turks come."
"Once they go south, they will be no different from what we do here. They will kill adult men, rape our wives and daughters, and make our children and grandchildren their slaves."
"So, I led you here, and only we men from Heng'an Town came here to do what we should do, and try our best to make this grassland chaotic before the Turks go south."
"Let me tell you again, this is just the beginning. When the Turks occupy these grasslands, we will continue to fight with them in Mayi, Yanmen, Loufan, and even Jinyang, Yulin, and even Luoyang and Chang'an.
, until you die on the battlefield.”
"We are now the first barrier of the Great Sui Dynasty. Similarly, we may also be the last barrier of the Great Sui Dynasty."
"No matter what other people do, I, Li Po, want to use the blood of the Turks to dye my official uniform red. What about you? Do you want to be a dog of the Turks in the future, or do you want to use the heads and bones of these powerful enemies to pave the way?
My own path to wealth and glory? Let a fucking general come and go?"
Li Po has never been an impassioned martyr, he has always been calm and cunning.
But now, there was madness in his voice. He beat his chest hard twice, then drew out his scimitar and pointed it diagonally at the night sky, "We have no enmity or enmity with the Turks, but we, the soldiers, are defending the homeland.
On this fertile soil, if you shed the last drop of blood, even if you die in battle, you will have no regrets and will become the heroic soul of this northern land, respected by millions of people."
There are hundreds of Northland athletes, the youngest is only 16 or 17 years old, and the eldest is already over 10 years old.
On this cool grassland night, in this empty wilderness, my blood was boiling with excitement from these heroic words, and the haze in my heart disappeared like soup melting into snow.
After only a moment of silence, they stood up one after another, beating their hot chests hard, and some of them drew out their machetes and let out wild howls like they were charging into battle.
At this moment, Li Po became their well-deserved alpha wolf. They were willing to follow such a person on an endless journey, even to the end of the world, without any regrets.
Many years later, some of these people were already gray and old, but they still remembered that tall figure on the grassland, who seemed to be standing with the sky and the earth, raising a knife and pointing diagonally at the sky. It was so clear and profound that it was a moment.
eternal.
But what they didn't know was that Li Canjun, whom they admired and admired, was secretly wiping a cold sweat.
It seemed like he had gone too far. If things went cold, he would have no choice but to lead his people and run back to Heng'an Town in despair.
However, the effect is still satisfactory. You see, even the black boy in the grassland named Gaga jumped up, grinned and danced like a ghost.
Fortunately, Li Po did not overly hypnotize himself and let himself fall into excessive enthusiasm.
Taking advantage of the situation, he issued an order that made him feel a little ashamed.
"Tomorrow, we will rest here for a day, and then we will go west to see Dingxiang County. I don't know when the hell we Sui people will be able to go there again."
He looked tragic and sad like a hero, but in fact, this order was equivalent to rejecting his previous idea of seeing what the Turks were like.
It's May, and if the news from his teacher is correct, going further north will double the danger.
If we take these five hundred stupid guys and go further north, a tragedy will probably happen.
Of course, there was also a little selfishness mixed into this. He wanted to go back to the old village to have a look, and by the way, could he bring the bones of some old soldiers back to Mayi for burial?
People these days are all about returning their souls to their hometowns. Although they can't take them back to their respective hometowns, they can still let them return to the Sui Dynasty, which is also their wish.
Well, the hundreds of Sui soldiers whose blood was boiling under his arousal didn't notice at all that the leader was deserting, and planned to take them for a spin and then go back.
They all beat their chests and offered their sincere respect before they dispersed one after another. Thinking about it, this must be a sleepless night for them.
Several brigade commanders even came to Li Po and said that in a few years, they would be able to join the army and fight back to drive away the Turks.
Of course, there are also subtle emotions at play here that stem from the Sui people's confidence in the Turks' superiority over the years.
After a few years... Hey, it doesn't take a few years, but after a year and a half, they will actually realize that the Turks are so powerful, and the Sui Dynasty... haha...
