Behind him, Shen Xiangdong came over and said in a deep voice: "General Li, don't mess up your mind."
Li Luo responded softly, stood up, and said lightly: "We are six hours late."
Shen Xiangdong glanced around, his face full of helplessness.
He said sympathetically: "I'm afraid these people are Dagan people who were plundered by rogue bandits and sold into slavery outside the region. The rogue bandits fled in a hurry for their lives. They were extremely vicious and killed all of them. They are really worse than animals."
Li Luo sighed in his heart, he didn't know it, but there was something Shen Xiangdong might not want to say. If Li Luo hadn't sent an order to burn down the rogue warship, these people would have been able to survive, even if they were slaves. , it’s better than dying here.
I don't know what kind of sea fish were swimming under the body. From time to time, they would come to the body, bite it, and then sink into the water again.
Helian Chengxian shouted loudly, and threw the spear in his hand with lightning, piercing into the sea water. He dodged, stepped on a gravel, pulled out the spear with one hand, and nailed a man to the tip of the spear. Weird sea fish.
Everyone was unintentionally surprised. Helian Chengxian roared angrily and thrust his spear. The struggling and bent sea fish instantly split into a pile of blood and was sprinkled on the corpses of the tragically dead Dagan people. Perhaps only in this way can Helian City be relieved a little. The anger in Xian's heart.
"You rogue bandit, one day I will definitely avenge this bloody sea of blood." Helian Chengxian exhaled a breath of filthy air and shouted loudly.
All the generals shouted in unison and said loudly: "I swear to avenge this."
The sound spread far away, and the frightened seabirds flapped their wings and flew high, not daring to land again for a long time.
The Mutianlang soldiers fished out the corpses from the water one by one and placed them neatly on the shore.
There were 2,173 men, women, old and children in total, and they died in extremely miserable conditions.
Mu Tianlang was marching in the past, and even though Li Luo had ordered the enemy soldiers to be killed, it was just for the pleasure of doing so.
However, among the 2,173 corpses of these ordinary people in front of us, only a few or less than a hundred were killed with a single blow, and the rest were driven to death by the bandits like livestock for fun.
Looking at the face distorted by pain and the unblinking fear in his eyes, he didn't know what kind of panic and despair he had experienced a few hours ago.
Li Luo felt sad and seemed a little confused. Could it be that he was wrong.
Shen Xiangdong walked to Li Luo, looked at the sky in the distance, and said harmoniously: "General Li, there is no need to blame himself. When we march, we are slowing down our illness. When we achieve success, we also rely on God's will for our plans."
No one would have thought that the Dagan soldiers in Chuyang Prefecture would raise their troops to attack at this time. Moreover, the bandits fleeing into the sea may not always be acting on the wind, and there may be some other secret."
Li Luo smiled slowly and said softly, "Thank you, Mr. Shen."
"Under the current situation, it is better for our army to plan the next step early."
Li Luo responded. An hour ago, the sky was still sunny. Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky. The sea breeze suddenly became a little cooler. A light rain began to fall. However, from the stage, the sky was covered with mist and rain, and the sea and sky became hazy. The hazy pieces are connected together, and it is impossible to tell which is the sky and which is the sea.
Although the weather is a bit cooler, it is still very hot as summer approaches, and the buzzing of flies can be seen, which makes people more and more annoyed and impatient.
All the generals worked together to find a leeward spot half a mile away from the tide-watching crossing, dug a stone pit several feet deep, and buried the corpses on the shore.
It’s just that no one knows the name. A huge tomb of a thousand people is still an unknown grave in the end.
After the Shepherds were busy, the sky changed again, and the dark clouds dispersed within a few breaths, making it unpredictable.
After the drizzle, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance, and a group of cavalry rushed over from a distance. Before the horses arrived, the shouts and shouts of war had already been heard.
The Mu Tianlang generals looked indifferent, but they did not hesitate to show disgust in their eyes. They were the border guards who had come all the way from Chuyang Prefecture.
The war horse galloped forward, holding a white horse in silver armor. It looked majestic, but the cloak was unknown. It was much more expensive than Helian Chengxian's white robe, and it was spotless.
The general was young, about the same age as Helian Chengxian, and looked very arrogant. When he saw the Mu Tianlang generals who looked dusty and muddy, he pointed his halberd and shouted coldly: "Who are you?"
"Who are you?" Helian Chengxian asked coldly.
"I am the general Chu Yang who is leading the camp and the forward general Gu Xichao. Who are you? Tell me your name."
"Gu Xichao?" Li Luo was slightly startled and said softly, "Does Lord Gu, the Sima of the current dynasty, have any relationship with the general?"
A proud smile flashed across the corner of Gu Xichao's lips, her tone softened, and she said, "Do you recognize my uncle?"
"Oh, it turns out you are from the Gu family." Li Luo suddenly understood and nodded lightly.
Gu Xichao was not happy to see Li Luo looking so calm, but although he was arrogant, he was not reckless and ignorant.
I also heard that Mu Tianlang sent troops to the East Mansion. I didn’t know the origins of the generals in front of me. If he were an ordinary General Mu Tianlang, he wouldn’t be afraid, but he didn’t want to be too emotional. Then he gave a slight salute and asked: "Who are you?"
Li Luo had a thought in his mind. The six great families in Dagan, the Tang and Song Dynasties, had unfathomable foundations for hundreds of years, and they could all form their own sect. The remaining ones were the Luo family of Luozhou, the Lin family of Xiezhou, and Taishu of Zhuozhou.
These three sects are all more or less dependent on the Dagan court. Li Luo's biological mother was from the Luo family, and Princess Xuanfei of Prince Chun's palace was from the Lin family. Not to mention the Taishu family, Taishu Xianchou was the Dagan Jiuqing young master, and his position was respected and powerful.
There is another family, but the two surnames are combined into one, and they are added to the end of the six major families, one is Gu and the other is 6.
The Gu and Liu families have been married for generations. There is me in you, you in me, and the Gu family has Sima Gu Lianying. The six families have great power in the palace and the palace. It is really difficult for one family to compete with the other five families, but it is okay for two families to be called together.
Not inferior to other aristocratic families.
It's just that the Gu and Lu families act very low-key, and their reputation in the Jianghu court is slightly inferior. However, if the two families work together, they may still be higher than the three great uncles in Lorraine.
Li Luo returned the salute and said in a harmonious voice: "I am Li Luo, and I came here on the eastward expedition under the imperial decree of the imperial court."
Gu Xichao was stunned, her face changed drastically, she quickly turned over and dismounted, bowed heavily, and said in panic: "I don't know the true appearance of the prince, please punish me."
Li Luo gently helped Gu Xichao up, smiled slightly and said, "No one is guilty if you don't know. You and I are soldiers, so there is no need to be polite."
"This, I will obey the order." Gu Xichao bowed respectfully and stopped being polite.
Then he saluted and exchanged greetings with Shen Xiangdong and Helian Chengxian. When he learned that the old man in front of him was actually the famous Cang'er Qianlong of Dagan, Gu Xichao didn't know whether it was intentional or not, his face turned red, and he looked embarrassed and ashamed, and his arrogant face disappeared.
live.
"My lord, why are you here?" Gu Xichao asked cautiously. (To be continued.)
