Li Qinghuan

Chapter 114

Han Jue sent more than half of the people he brought to look for He Li, and the rest packed up the bodies of He Huaizhou and dozens of Red Wing soldiers and brought them back to Lancheng.

Han Jue and many generals of the Red Wing Army gathered in the main tent to discuss countermeasures. Now that He Huai was dying all over, everyone was worried that He Li would make some mistakes. Han Jue gathered the soldiers of the Red Wing Army in Lan The downstairs of the city is ready to fight at any time, General He is the only one, Han Jue and all the generals know that He Li must not have any accidents.

It wasn't until twilight that He Li rode back to Lancheng, covered in blood, holding the soul-killing gun in his left hand, and Duoerqi's head in his right hand, dripping drops of blood.

All the soldiers sent out were brought back unscathed by He Li. The Donghu people did not expect He Li to have the courage to break into the Donghu tent alone. Duoerqi's throat was cut, and his head was picked off.

After reacting, there was only a headless corpse left in the big tent.

He Li's eyes were cold, and he rode his horse back to Lancheng, dodging Donghu's chasing soldiers. The armor on his body was cut several times, his hair was messy, blood was still stained on his cheeks, his hands were scarlet, and everyone was surprised He walked into the big tent with his eyes.

A mourning hall was set up for He Huaizhou in the barracks, and He Huaizhou's body had been cleaned up and put into the coffin.

He Li entered the main tent, threw Duoerqi's head casually, and said coldly: "Pass on my order, the whole city is under martial law, and prepare for the battle. General He is dead, and Donghu may take advantage of the situation and fight Get up."

He Li was still the same He Li, but his eyes and eyebrows were full of murderous intent, and his body was covered in blood, both his own and others', like a lifeless murderous god.

"Yes!"

With He Li's order, everything was gone in an instant. The He family still had descendants, and the Red Wing Army still had a backbone.

Soon, only Han Jue and him were left in the tent, and Han Jue tentatively said, "A Li."

He Li turned his head to look at him stiffly: "What's the matter with General Han?"

With that tone and expression, very much like He Huaizhou who showed his sharpness when he was young, Han Jue made up his mind and asked, "Are you okay?

He Li lowered his eyes, hiding the sadness in his eyes: "I can't be bad."

He Huaizhou died in battle, and now there is a big enemy in front of him. The Red Wing Army has no leader. He Li knows that he has to cheer up, even if he has all kinds of sorrows, he has to swallow it. The Red Wing Army is He Huaizhou's life. alright.

Han Jue was completely stunned, presumably because He Li was young, looked a little squeamish, and acted erratically. In the past, he had preconceived ideas and regarded He Li as a pampered son, but forgot that he was He Huaizhou's grandson. How can people be weak?

He Li raised his hand to wipe the blood off his face: "General Han, go get busy."

Han Jue stood where he was, hesitant to speak.

He Li said: "General Han has something to say."

Hearing what he said, Han Jue no longer hesitated, and said directly: "There is a clue about the traitor."

He Li looked at Han Jue suddenly, his eyes were like a bloodthirsty ghost: "What?"

Han Jue: "That man's name is Zheng Chong."

"Zheng Chong? Which Zheng Chong?"

Han Jue said: "I have had someone check it out. There is only one member of the Red Wing Army named Zheng Chong, who is in Xiangcheng."

He Li took a step back and almost lost his footing. He gritted his teeth and said, "Where's the person?"

It's him. .The people he brought killed He Huaizhou, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to He Li, crushing his last line of defense.

Han Jue lowered his head: "No one was found."

"Find it! Send someone to look for it! I will definitely tear him to pieces!" He Li was hoarse, crying, breathless for a while, and said after a long while: "It should have gone to the Donghu camp, and I will do my best to track it down."

"Yes!"

He Li sighed wearily, and was about to speak, when he felt something strange in his throat as soon as he opened his mouth, and spurted out a mouthful of blood unexpectedly.He raised his hand to touch the corner of his lips, suddenly felt a pain in his heart, the armor on his body was extremely heavy, He Li crouched down covering his heart, crying so hard that he couldn't breathe.

Han Jue didn't dare to disturb him for a while, so he sent someone to Xiangcheng to invite Gao Yangsu, and then he asked with concern, "A Li, are you okay?"

He Li's eyelashes were wet, tears were mixed with the blood on his face, he looked in a state of distress, he shook his head after a long while, holding on to the soul-killing gun to barely escape the breath, lowered his eyes and said: "General Han, General He died for the country Send the news back to Yu Du."

Seeing him so calm, Han Jue suddenly felt uneasy, and nodded, "Okay."

He Li didn't speak any more, put down the soul-killing gun and left the tent.

He wandered around aimlessly in the barracks, as if he had lost his soul, and finally entered the mourning hall of the old general in a daze. He Li knelt down in front of He Huaizhou's coffin in silence, staring at the coffin for a long time. .

He couldn't accept that the old general who was strategizing yesterday turned into a cold corpse, but he had to calm down. Once the old general left, the lives of the [-] soldiers of the Red Wing Army and the burden of defending the country fell on him. on the head.

He Li never questioned his choice. But at this moment, he was a little hesitant to continue on. He Huaizhou fought for most of his life on the battlefield, and finally died in the schemes of his own people. How can this not be chilling?

"Worth it?"

It seemed to be asking the deceased He Huaizhou, and it seemed to be asking himself.

He Li's face was pale, and he knelt motionless in front of the coffin, like a man made of paper, as if a gust of wind could blow him away.

Han Jue stood outside the mourning hall without disturbing, quietly watching the silent farewell, and was also saying goodbye to his old friend who had fought side by side for many years.

He Huaizhou and Han Jue have known each other for many years. They were comrades-in-arms when they started the Red Wing Army. After so many years of friendship, Han Jue didn't give up because he knew in his heart that he would have such a day sooner or later. He Huaizhou just went first. wait for him.

He Li is still young, even if he has fought a few outstanding battles, some people will be dissatisfied, and Han Jue is needed to help establish prestige in the army. Since He Huaizhou handed over the Red Wing Army to He Li, now he has to help He Li stood firm in the army.

Han Jue stood quietly in the east wind in the spring and March, and in a trance, he returned to the year when the Red Wing Army first came to the battlefield, which was also the spring and March, when they were young men in fresh clothes and angry horses.He Huaizhou went to the frontier in March when the grass was growing and the warbler was flying, and he dedicated his life to this desert and long river, and finally left in this March when the grass was growing and the warbler was flying. . .

"Your Majesty—Northwest Express!"

A small eunuch hurriedly ran into the Panlong Hall, and handed over to Song Duan the battle report sent urgently from eight hundred miles northwest.

Ji Qing was discussing matters with Song Duan in the Panlong Palace at this time, seeing his expression changed after reading the battle report, he asked, "Your Majesty, what happened?"

Song Duan lowered his eyes, making it hard to see the emotions in his eyes: "General He Huaizhou fell into the enemy's tricks and died."

Ji Qing was shocked, and the folder in his hand fell to the ground with a "click".

"Your Majesty, it's time to make a plan." Ji Qing hastily adjusted his demeanor, reached out to reach for the folds on the ground, and hid his trembling hands under the sleeves of his robe, but there was still an imperceptible tremor in his voice.

Song Duan took another look, threw the notebook aside, and said, "I don't know how many surprises Ah Li has?"

Ji Qing's heart was shocked, and he pretended to be calm and said: "What did your majesty say?"

Song Duan picked up the tea in hand and took a sip: "General Zhaowu He Li broke into Donghu's camp alone and killed Doleqi."

"Since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth, General He Xiao is really powerful." Ji Qing didn't know what Song Duan meant by saying this, so he could only ponder over a fairly pertinent statement.

Song Duan glanced at him, unable to distinguish between joy and anger, and said inexplicably, "Heming, have you and Ah Li worked together for a while?"

Ji Qing narrowed his eyes, nodded, and didn't answer.Companion is like companion to tiger, Ji Qing can handle it easily on weekdays, but when it comes to He Li, he will inevitably lose his position.

Song Duan snorted coldly, and broke the subject: "Do you believe that He Li can be alone?"

Ji Qing said calmly: "Yes."

Song Duan rubbed his forehead: "He Huaizhou is the general of the town, and He Li is his only descendant. He can inherit the title of the old general and be named the general of the auxiliary country."

Ji Qingdao: "Is the military power of the Red Wing Army in the hands of the court, but in the hands of the generals, His Majesty is so assured of him?"

This question was right on point, Song Duan raised his eyes to look at Ji Qing: "Are you worried about him?"

Ji Qing smiled slightly, and looked straight into Song Duan's eyes: "It doesn't matter if I believe it or not, your Majesty must believe it."

"Come here!" Song Duan moved his eyes lightly, "I will pass on my will, Zhaowu General He Li is both wise and brave, and he will inherit the title of the old general. As the general of the Fuguo, he will still use the previous title, Zhaowu, and give the commander-in-chief seal and the four realms." Tiger Talisman, soldiers from the 54 counties of Kyushu will be at his disposal."

"Is it too risky for Your Majesty to entrust his wealth and life to this little General He?" Ji Qing tentatively asked.

Song Duan raised his chin and looked at Ji Qing with a smile: "I know what Ji Aiqing thinks of He Li, so I don't need to try it out all the time."

Ji Qing lowered his eyes and smiled: "Thanks to Your Majesty's love."

Song Duan: "He is my younger brother who I grew up with. I believe him for now, and I believe you too."

One of Ji Qing and He Li helped him regain power, and the other helped him to quell the external turmoil. Song Duan's plan was well planned.What is Song Duan thinking? Ji Qing is clear in his heart, but he doesn't want to care about gains and losses. He has no family and country righteousness in his heart, and he doesn't want to be a powerful minister who covers the sky with one hand. He only needs to protect He Li, power or something, Compared to He Li, it's really not worth mentioning.Song Duan's willingness to delegate power to He Li was unexpected, but with the military power in hand, He Li came to have an extra support.

"The coffin of Old General He should be transported back to Yudu, and it should be buried in the He family grave. After all, the old general has been my grandfather for so many years."

"Your Majesty has the final say."

Song Duan looked Ji Qing up and down, and felt that this game was worth the gamble.

Although he has some guesses about the relationship between Ji Qing and He Li, but after all, it is only a few encounters. As long as the love is not as deep as the sea, it seems that there are not a few beauties who throw themselves into the arms of Ji Qing. There is no reason to give up the future for anyone.

The two monarchs and ministers had their own thoughts, but they still reached a short-term agreement.

"Your Majesty, I have finished dealing with the matters you have asked me to do, so I will leave first." Ji Qing stood up and cupped his hands.

Song Duan nodded, paused and said, "wait a moment."

Ji Qing turned around: "What else is there for Your Majesty?"

Song Duan didn't know what he thought of, and sighed heavily: "He Ming, how is your skill?"

Ji Qing didn't know why he asked such a question. After deliberating for a moment, he said with mixed truth and falsehood: "It's okay, riding and shooting is still no problem."

"There is nothing wrong in the capital for the time being. I will send a few generals to assist you. I will lead an army of [-] to the north. I will bring the commander's seal and tiger talisman to Ah Li. By the way, I will bring back General He's coffin." Song Duan looked a little tired and paused He said again: "Don't run away secretly anymore, go in an open and honest way."

Ji Qingzheng had this plan, but at this moment, being poked at the center of the matter, he said a little embarrassedly: "My minister obeys."

"Okay, back off."

Song Duan was afraid that he would escape in private. The last time Ji Qing left without saying goodbye, he left him with a lot of trouble. Instead of wiping his ass afterwards, it is better to send people out directly. Ji Qing can handle things well for him Let's go beautifully.
