After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

After searching all the way out of the camp, Pei Jiaoran found Li Xiujing by the Ba River. Looking up from the distance, one can see the undulating mountains of Lishan Mountain, and the breeze carries a hint of tide.

Pei Jiaoran bent down to pick up the stones on the ground, moved a few steps to the side and threw the stones into the water. The water splashed high, and Li Xiujing also turned around.

After glancing at her, Li Xiujing turned to Feng Yuanxian and ordered: "You go back first."

Feng Yuanxian nodded and turned to leave. I caught a glimpse of the other companions leaving the camp together, laughing and joking for a while with an unseemly look on their faces, but the one who refused to leave was the sergeant. He raised his head and glanced at Pei Jiaoran with a complicated expression.

Although there is a certain distance between the Chinese army tent and the tent next to it. But that night he and He Liang still heard those inappropriate voices coming from their general. Forget it, but in the next few days, the general was calming himself down while softly calling Pei Shangshu's name. By chance, he had bumped into him.

Realizing that Li Xiujing's eyes had darkened, Feng Yuanxian coughed a few times. Urge everyone to move away quickly, otherwise they will be dealt with according to military law. Everyone then laughed and rode their horses away.

Seeing that she and Li Xiujing were the only ones left here, Pei Jiaoran said: "Wang Yu is dead." She walked to him and sat down cross-legged, "I asked He Liang to dispatch ten people to Tongzhou to pick up Mr. Wang Guo. Over at Lantian, I For the time being, I have ordered Lu Zheng to take the Jinwu Guards to keep an eye on it."

"Wang Yu died at this time, what impact would it have on you..."

"It's still acceptable." Pei Jiaoran lay down on the ground with his hands behind his head, "But I said he was killed by bandits. As long as I don't come forward, the fire won't burn me. It's just the Wang family that is anxious. "

"So is this the reason why you let them go? Tongzhou is not far from Dongwei Bridge, so it doesn't hurt to let He Liang go in person." Li Xiujing lay next to her.

Shaking his head, Pei Jiaoran said: "The Wang family is not in a hurry. My mission this time is the Zhenhai batch of grain, which is a big deal. As for the others, they are not worth mentioning at all."

It's not that she doesn't care whether Wang Yu's death will affect her. But because his death itself was like a dead leaf falling into the rapids of the current situation, his death was insignificant. At most, all parties are taking advantage of this incident to make their own moves, thus causing the struggle to fall into a new situation.

The reason why she didn't come forward was to let Shence and Jin Wuwei go. It was because she didn't want to bear the first wave of anger from the Taiyuan Wang family. But it is extremely appropriate for the imperial court to face this fire.

"Jiajia, since you are free, why not accompany me to a nearby village. You know, the condition for His Majesty to let me move the army to Dongwei Bridge is that we must collect food ourselves." Li Xiujing looked sideways at her, " I have collected the food, and I just send someone to share the bread for me.”

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran narrowed his eyes, "What are the benefits?"

"You can do whatever you want to me."

After giving Li Xiujing a blank look, Pei Jiaoran suddenly stood up. Seeing her like this, Li Xiujing also got up.

The two rode their horses to meet Feng Yuanxian who was standing guard in the distance.

Although the village chosen by Shence to collect grain was not far from Dongwei Bridge, due to the military disaster in Chang'an, all the farming and mulberry fields near Jingzhao were abandoned. And it took them a lot of effort to collect the food before they were able to get the village chief to relent.

Before entering the village, the cold wind brought a burning smell.

Pei Jiaoran turned his head and looked at Li Xiujing. Seeing him purse his lips, looking worried, thoughts came into her eyes.

As the village progresses, the smell of burnt food becomes more and more intense. At Li Xiujing's order, Feng Yuanxian took the lead in urging his horse forward. Others followed.

What you see is a scorched black place, and there are dead bones under the broken walls.

"General, in addition to the common people, our people also..." Feng Yuanxian's voice came from the front, and he looked at the two of them but hesitated to speak.

"Let's go and have a look in front." Li Xiujing urged the horse to go to the plowing area of ​​the village.

There are more corpses on the plowed fields, which is even more intolerable.

The crutches of an unknown old man in the village were lying alone, and the shovels and plows originally used for cultivating the fields had become ownerless. The wind blowing from Lishan Mountain brought a bit of sadness.

Li Xiujing got off the horse and stopped beside the field. He knelt down and picked up a corner of the flag from the haystack. Turning to look at Pei Jiaoran.

Looking at the broken step in Li Xiujing's hand, Pei Jiaoran dismounted and walked over, "Is it Han Min?"

Li Xiujing nodded. This is Han Min's military flag. He guessed that the other party was unwilling to be defeated by him and had been wandering nearby, waiting for an opportunity. I happened to come to this village and saw the Shence Army, and there was also a shortage of food in Chang'an. Therefore, an unreasonable disaster was brought to this village.

"He probably hasn't gone far yet." Li Xiujing said coldly, turning to look at Feng Yuanxian, "We can still catch up with him. Jiajia, you go back first, you still hold an important position."

Looking up at Li Xiujing, Pei Jiaoran raised his lips and said, "I'll go with you."

She knew that Li Xiujing had far more sincerity than she had left. But not to tolerate the massacre of civilians by well-trained troops is the lowest standard given to politicians in this world.

Li Xiujing didn't answer and ordered Feng Yuanxian to go back and order another two hundred fine cavalry. When he returned, everyone rode their horses and chased Han Min's army in the direction they left.

As Li Xiujing expected, Han Min's army did not go far. After they found a place to camp, they began to distribute food on the spot.

Arrows wrapped in fire came like a sudden rain and fell everywhere in Han Min's camp. The camp fell into the sea of ​​fire, and screams of surprise could be heard.

Seeing the right opportunity, Li Xiujing led his army to launch an attack. There is a long spear in his hand, and he can kill the enemy under the spear lightly. Under his leadership, the blade in the hands of Sergeant Shence also launched a fierce offensive.

The sound of fighting continued. Within half an hour, all the rebels in the camp were killed by Shence's blade, and the culprit, Han Min, was beheaded on the spot. There were no casualties among the two hundred elite cavalry.

Looking at the bloody camp in front of him, Pei Jiaoran sighed slightly.

This world is cruel to everyone. Because there are always people and families whose fortune history is dark. Their bright appearance is indispensable for them to step on the piled bones and walk up step by step. The superiors who remain in the annals of history have laid a template for future generations. Countless people follow their example, ignoring the filth and darkness behind them.

Every class jump is indispensable for political accumulation and financial contributions. Only in this way can we welcome opportunities.

The group returned to the camp. Because of the sudden incident, Li Xiujing devoted himself to the arrangements for military affairs as soon as he returned to the camp. Li Xiujing didn't return to his tent until the darkness swallowed up everything around him.

In front of the desk, Pei Jiaoran was writing something. He heard footsteps and raised his head.

I saw that although Li Xiujing was still wearing armor, there was no trace of blood smell on his body, only a slight cold feeling wrapped in the smell of river water remained. He knelt down and sat next to her, took her hand and kissed it with deep eyes.

"I have known it since I was a child. No matter how prosperous a family is, it will one day decline, so I chose to join the army. But after entering the military camp, I realized that military merit is not so easy to earn. You must first learn to live, then you can have the opportunity to kill I cut off the enemy's heads to gain military merit. Many of my comrades fell on the battlefield and became lonely graves, looking at their hometown in a foreign land, and I was the lucky one among them. Although we won the battle on Duhu Mountain, We also suffered heavy losses." Li Xiujing paused, "At that time, I had a comrade-in-arms who was sympathetic to me. He once said to me, 'If you are powerful, you will be able to rise to prominence no matter what. You don't have to worry about your bright future, and you have to come here. Why are you fighting for your life on the battlefield? Look, you are so seriously injured now, maybe your life will be taken care of here.'"
