Chapter 516 A Thousand Miles Journey (10)
"Brother, I will deal with this matter and kill secretly... The current situation is in chaos, and there are many old Wei Wenda troops in the city, so we cannot spread the news." One of the eleven cavalrymen handed over with difficulty. "Otherwise, the morale of the army will be shaken, and it will be difficult to do anything.
"
Luo Shu stared at his brother for a long time and sneered: "Xiao Tian, is it so difficult for me to come up with a bad breath?"
The young officer stood frozen on the spot.
Another person stood up, but he was the eldest among the remaining eleven riders. He raised his hands to each other and said, "Brother, I only want to say one thing. What if the young lady is already pregnant?"
Luo Shu still sneered: "Lin Liu, are you stupid? My son has been in Hejian for several months, how could he be pregnant?"
The older man looked surprised: "Brother, at the end of last month, the young master came to stay at our house from Hejian for two days. You..."
Luo Shu finally hesitated.
Lao Lin hurriedly said: "Brother, the young master is an only son. This kind of thing must be endured even if it happens..."
Hearing this, Luo Shu became angry again and looked out the door: "Why are you still standing? Go back and stuff that big-footed girl into the wing and lock it. Don't stop eating and drinking!"
The family left in disgrace.
After the family members left, Eleven Cavalry and Luo Shu were left to continue discussing the final fight. The discussion lasted until evening before they dispersed.
As soon as they got out of the house, the eleven riders went to various parts of the city to reorganize the army and horses. In the evening, they inevitably went to inspect the city walls. Before the third watch, four or five of them naturally gathered on the turret in the southwest corner of the city.
These people did not intend to form any conspiracy group, but as a group of the Eighteen Cavalry with poorer cultivation and other abilities, they usually had to do it in military camps, city walls, inns, and even at Luo Shu's residence.
We go on patrol in the evening, and after that we drink hot soup, talk, and then disperse to rest.
It's a routine.
Moreover, this kind of scene is also the time when several people are most relaxed and comfortable.
But today...
"Fortunately, Sixth Brother still remembers the return of the young master at the end of last month, otherwise I don't know how it will end today... I didn't even dare to let Xiaotian come over." After sitting in silence for a while, one of the young men said quietly. "Brother Bai, Lao Zhang and the others
Everyone has to leave or die, so Brother Six has to make more decisions."
The elderly officer surnamed Lin, who had spoken out to resolve the great difficulty during the day, was silent for a moment, and then responded dully: "What can I remember? I made everything up about coming back at the end of the month."
Several people were stunned for a moment.
"In this case..." One of the knights was sweating profusely. "In this case, if someone reminds me again, will the girl from the Wei family still die? Brother Lin Liu will also be implicated?"
"It doesn't matter if I die, but we can't let him kill innocent people indiscriminately!" Officer Lin said solemnly. "But you don't have to worry too much. Manager Naluo didn't say anything to expose me outside the door today. He will naturally deal with it when he goes back."
"Then..."
"Let's talk about it later the day after tomorrow."
"Can we really succeed the night after tomorrow? If we succeed, we will be able to get out of trouble? I'm afraid that even if I win, I will only continue to suffer like this, and then I will become even more insane!"
"You're right. I'm afraid that when we send out troops in the future, we will follow Xue Changxiong's example and collapse... Playing with people's hearts is what that guy is good at."
"So what?"
"I think everyone should go back and collect the children now, and just jump off the west city wall... If you look for Brother Zhang, you will always have a foothold."
"It's easy to do this, but after so many years of loyalty, can you really leave him alone?"
"If you really want to control him, I'm afraid you guys will be surprised when you hear this... Let's do it together and kill him tomorrow night. It will save him from ruining his reputation as a hero for many years. In this way, we will bear the responsibility of brothers.
At the very least, he can be like Xue Changxiong and not leave a bad name in the army."
"This is our eldest brother and master after all, this is called murder!"
"What should we do?"
A few brothers actually had different ideas, but there was no doubt that everyone was extremely disappointed with Luo Shu.
After all, the last few people still looked at the person who rescued Wei Wenda's big-footed daughter today... After the latter opened his mouth, he has been sitting in the window of the watchtower, leaning against the wall next to the oil lamp.
Don't know what to think.
Seeing everyone coming to see him, the officer surnamed Lin knew that he could not hide away, so he had no choice but to say: "Everyone, to be fair, our eldest brother was still a very good person when he was a general...
Standing up for the local military officers and taking care of the local heroes, although it can't be said to promote good, but it still resists evil, and everyone admires it, otherwise how can we get together?"
"Brother Six, what's the use of saying this? Is today the past?!"
"Yes, if he can be a general for the rest of his life, not to mention a general, he might as well be a general manager, but if he doesn't have the ambition to conquer the world, he can only be a leader of the gang, and we can be a leader to support him, he will still look like a hero! But he
I actually dreamed of conquering the world. I believed Li Shu’s nonsense all day long before he went away. Before I went out this time, I told me to clean Linsang Palace for him when I came back... Is this what he can think of? Everyone knows how to let everyone
Chief, live in!"
"I just wanted to say this... Looking at it now, our eldest brother is not a great hero, he is just an ordinary hero. If he was in the previous heroic situation, he could handle it no matter what, but being a general manager does not count.
Still thinking about competing for the world, this is what is called a corporal with ambition, but he is not as good as a mediocre person, and his own situation is ruined."
"Brothers, what you said is correct." Officer Lin quickly interrupted these people. "So, we must not only remember how good he was back then, but also understand that he is incorrigible now..."
"Brother Six, tell me what to do!" Someone else became impatient. "We listen to you."
"Okay... I mean, in the battle the night after tomorrow, we risk our lives to fight for him, which can be regarded as repaying our old kindness." Officer surnamed Lin responded seriously. "But after this battle, we will also
I have done my best to be benevolent and righteous, so regardless of victory or defeat, or the number of people who return to the city, I will take all the family members and leave... Let’s go first, and we will have nothing to do with him after he leaves, and then we will discuss where to contact him.”
Several people fell silent and made eye contact several times, but no words were spoken.
Finally, probably after realizing that everyone had to agree to this plan, someone broke the silence: "Where are the other brothers?"
"We are all brothers, so of course we have to go together. I will go to them and make it clear right away... Don't move. Tonight and tomorrow, I will find opportunities to say it one by one. If someone really leaks it, it will only be on me.
"
"What about the daughter of the Wei family?" someone asked again.
"That is not only the daughter of the Wei family, but also the daughter-in-law of our eldest brother. He doesn't recognize it himself, but we have to recognize it. Not only do we recognize it, but we also need to save it... When the time comes, I will go directly to rescue people and lead them out of the city... Later
I'll leave the matter to you." At this point, Lin Liufu took a shaky breath again. "If there is any commotion at that time, you all should ignore it. If neither I nor the daughter of the Wei family comes out, neither will you.
Just take care of it and just take care of my house for me... Unless I don’t come back after the incident tomorrow, Lao Feng will do it for me."
One of them quickly responded, while the remaining people looked at each other in confusion. They wanted to speak, but Lin Liu waved his hand to stop him. Then he directly decided on the escape route and the place where his family members would gather, including the executor and alternate executor of the plan.
By this time, it was already the third watch, so they dispersed. Lin Liu also walked out of the watchtower, but looked at the linked double moons above his head, and fell into confusion for a moment... He was the one who saved people during the day, and he had just made a decision.
It was him who wanted to run away, and no matter how you put it, their behavior was actually a conspiracy to rebel, and he, Lin Liu, was the leader of this rebellion.
Although he became a rebel leader, after more than ten years of experience, how could he be so easily dismissed as nothing?
How many decades do you have in your life? It is still the best decade in your life!
How can we not be sad that things have reached this point?
And when I think about how heartbroken Bai Xiangui and Zhang Gongshen were at that time, they feel even more heartbroken now.
After stopping for a long time, the man moved with difficulty, looking for someone, and found two brothers who were far away along the city wall. He explained the whole story and got a promise to join the group. He wanted to take a break, but suddenly he thought of one person and ignored him.
It was dark and exhausted, so I came here specifically to look for Xiao Tian who had tried to make a comeback during the day but failed.
Xiao Tian was the younger one among the Eighteen Riders. He had a promiscuous temperament and had not yet married. His father died during the Second Expedition, so he only lived in a small courtyard with his mother. When Lin Liu arrived at the place, he did not call the door and directly lit the weak water.
Infuriated, he gently turned into the wall.
As expected, Xiaotian didn't sleep either. When he saw the visitor, he was more happy than surprised.
The two of them sat down by the manger in the backyard. Lin Liu was about to speak, but Xiao Tian beat him to it: "Brother Liu, I have been afraid since I came back. I don't even dare to go to the city for fear of causing suspicion..."
"Why are you afraid to go here?" Lin Liu quickly comforted. "Compared with the other defeated soldiers in the city, the only ones he can use are us. We are his eyes, ears, arms, and foundation... don't be afraid of anything.
You can do anything boldly.”
"Brother Six, I'm still flustered." Xiaotian obviously didn't hear the other party's hint, and just pursed his lips and said. "The more I think about it after I come back, the more and more something is wrong. I always feel that brother is too... too scary this time."
"Of course he is crazy. Wei Wenda fought hard against the three masters and was defeated. The daughter of the Wei family is naturally blameless. What's more, she is his daughter-in-law. She is one of the few relatives he has in the world. She should have loved him more, but she actually wants to kill her.
..." Lin Liu had no choice but to repeat what he had said to several people before.
"It's not just this." Xiaotian lowered his head and said. "Sixth brother, if you just think about the death of your only son and the loss of your in-laws, you can just kill someone in anger... I sat and thought for a while, and I was most afraid that he did it on purpose.
.”
"On purpose? What do you mean?"
"Isn't he going to lead us on a surprise attack in the future?"
"yes."
"Those who lead the troops themselves don't know that although Youzhou City is huge, the only ones that can really be used at that time are the thousands of people he gathered when he was the second lieutenant general and the thousands of us who gathered for him.
people, and the rest are broken soldiers and civilians who cannot listen to the slightest disturbance?"
"There is no commotion, there is no commotion, and people have been surrendering in the past few days..."
"So, since he knew that killing Wei Wenda's daughter would alienate Wei Wenda's old troops, and even said that defection was inevitable... why did he still kill her?" Xiaotian asked with difficulty.
Lin Liukang was about to say the word "crazy", but he suddenly hesitated, and then his already cold heart became even colder... After a while, he slowly spoke: "Xiaotian, do you think that he killed the daughter of the Wei family?
In order to make Wei Wenda's old troops defect and paralyze the army so that he can make a surprise attack in the future?"
To be continued...
