Chapter 129 3 Questions 3 Answers Persuading the Army to Return

This person was full of energy and his voice was like a bell, even from such a long distance, it made Shui Jing feel a little deafening.

However, Shui Jing is not concerned about this at the moment.

As the saying goes, "be polite first and then fight", this General Huo shot an arrow first when he came up, and then asked the opponent's identity after shooting, don't you think it's too late?Or, if the other party can't stand the arrow, even his identity is not worthy of being questioned by him?

Shui Jing smiled, and threw a backhand forcefully, the arrow in his hand flew straight down the cliff, nailed obliquely into the soil in front of Huo Jue's horse, splashed flying sand, the horse was startled by the arrow, and raised its hoof on the spot with a long howl .

Shui Jing was very satisfied with the movement, patted the dust in his hands, and then raised his voice and replied: "The next Sanren, the names are not worth mentioning, so let's not mention them. On the contrary, General Huo's reputation is as impressive as thunder, and seeing him at this moment really deserves his reputation. "

Huo Jue steadied his horse, and was very surprised by the prestige given by Shui Jing just now, but he couldn't help showing some respect for his opponent.

Listening to Shui Jing's words, it seemed that he did not want to reveal his identity, so Huo Jue didn't force him any more, and suppressed his arrogance just a little bit, and then said again: "Why are you here, Your Excellency?"

Shui Jing smiled slightly, and asked without answering, "General Huo is going to help the capital?"

Huo Jueyao looked at him from a distance, but didn't answer, after all, the identity of this person in front of him was a mystery, his skills were excellent, and his appearance was extremely strange, he didn't know what he meant when he asked this question, so he had to call attention to him.

Shui Jing knew what he was worried about, but he didn't care too much, and continued: "If the general really came here for this, I'm afraid the trip would be in vain."

Huo Jue frowned when he heard the words, and finally stopped keeping silent, squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean by your words?"

Shui Jing said: "Just half an hour ago, your lord had surrendered the city."

"Impossible!" Huo Jue shouted decisively.

His eyes were wide open, his voice was like thunder, and the horses under him were shaken to the left and right for a few steps.

Behind him, all the Huo family's troops were also in disbelief. They were no longer as calm as before, and whispered to each other, and there was an uproar in the valley.

Shui Jing turned his head and took a look in the direction of the capital, where he happened to be able to vaguely see the gate of the capital and a dark mass of Daluan soldiers outside the city.

He withdrew his gaze, raised his eyebrows and said, "If the general doesn't believe it, you can send someone up to take a look."

When everyone in the valley heard the words, the discussion stopped suddenly, and the soldier beside Huo Jue clasped his fists and said, "General, I'll go!"

Huo Jue looked up at Shui Jing, then nodded to the soldier.

The soldier rode forward, circled from the bottom of the valley in front of him, went up the mountain road, and soon came behind Shui Jing.

He got off his horse and walked to Shui Jing, looked in the direction of the capital, and saw the gate of the city was wide open, with Baihe civil and military officials lined up on both sides, and Daluan soldiers marching into the city in an orderly manner from the lane between them.

The soldier stood there for a long time, as if he couldn't understand what he saw.

Huo Jue at the bottom of the valley waited impatiently, his brows tightened, and he stared at the cliff.

Just when Huo Jue was about to call out to him, Shui Jing raised his hand and tapped on the soldier's knee, reminding him: "Your general is still waiting."

The soldier trembled, and then came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva, looked down at the bottom of the valley and tremblingly said: "General...it's true."

Huo Jue's eyes dimmed, and then he tightly clenched the bow and arrow in his hand, the veins on the back of his hand trembled slightly, he gritted his teeth, his voice became a little hoarse, and said, "How many people are here in Daluan?"

The soldier's expression was also very gloomy. He turned his head and glanced towards the capital again, frowned and shook his head, "There are countless numbers, but at least there are... forty to fifty thousand."

Shui Jing answered: "Don't count, there are 12 troops besieging the city, and there are still 18 garrisons in the cities that have been captured in the rear, making a total of [-]."

Huo Jue frowned a little deeper, lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was planning.

Seeing his expression, Shui Jing faintly guessed something, and said with a smile: "I said the general, your king has surrendered, don't you still want to fight?"

Huo Jue looked up at him, with grief and indignation in his eyes, and he said bitterly: "The Huo family's army always only knows how to die in battle, and they don't know what surrender is!"

His words were powerful and deafening, and he dispelled the haze in the hearts of all the Huo family soldiers behind him. Everyone's morale rekindled, and they all echoed: "Yes! The Huo family army vowed not to surrender!"

"General, if you decide to go, let's go, we all listen to you!"

"Yes! General, I listen to you!"

Huo Jue's chest couldn't stop heaving, and he was about to give an order, but Shui Jing said leisurely: "General Huo, don't rush to make a decision, you might as well calm down for a while, I just have a few questions I want to ask the general."

Tanaka's discussion stopped, and Huo Jue looked up at Shui Jing.

Shui Jing said: "First, how many people are there in the Huo family army you recalled?"

In fact, there is no need for Huo Jue to answer this question, Shui Jing already knew it well, although this group of people is huge, if counting the number of people, I am afraid it is not even five thousand.

Huo Jue heard that he meant that Huo's army was far outnumbered by Da Luan, but being outnumbered was not the reason for him to retreat, so he replied loudly: "Including me, there are three thousand six hundred and four people in total."

Shui Jing nodded, and said again: "The second question, what is the purpose of you leading the army to help the capital all the way?"

This remark is still asked knowingly.

Although Huo Jue felt that he was baffled, he still answered truthfully: "Since it is a rush to help, it is to break the siege of the capital and save His Majesty and the people from fire and water."

"Oh--"

Shui Jing nodded with a long voice, smiled inexplicably, and continued to ask: "The third question, these people behind you, are they loyal to the king, or to you?"

Huo Jue was startled, and frowned slightly.

In his opinion, the Huo family's army is naturally loyal to the lord, but for some reason, the words came to his lips but he couldn't answer them.

On that day, he was demoted again and again at Maitianguan in the southern border. The lord of the country ordered the Huo family army to be incorporated into the imperial court, but the Huo family army was not angry because of his being demoted, and they all claimed illness and returned to the field.

With this matter, can he still confidently say that Huo's army is loyal to the lord?

Not only him, but everyone behind him looked at each other, the meaning in their eyes was self-evident.

Shui Jing knew that Huo Jue couldn't answer this question at all, and didn't intend to wait for him to answer.

He lowered his head and straightened the hem of his coat on his knees, and said neither in a hurry nor in a hurry: "First, you have been a general for three generations of the Huo family. Therefore, you should know the truth of "a small enemy is strong, and a big enemy is captured". You have 3000 troops to fight against Daluan's 18 troops. The result is nothing but annihilation of the entire army after killing the enemy several times."

Huo Jue listened calmly, without any change in expression, as if he had expected the consequences of what Shui Jing said.The Huo family army behind him also did not change expression, as if the "annihilation of the whole army" that Shui Jing said was not referring to them.

Shui Jing knew that Huo Jue and even the entire Huo family army were not afraid of death, so he also knew that this reason would not move him in any way.

Shui Jing continued: "Secondly, you said that you came to the rescue to break the siege of the capital and save the lord and the people from the fire and water. But now that the lord has surrendered, Daluan has never treated the surrender harshly. Water and fire. Let’s talk about the people in the capital, Daluan’s siege was to seize the city, not slaughter it. Now that the city is in hand, Daluan will not embarrass the people, so why talk about water and fire?”

Huo Jue led the Huo family army to come here for support, but now the people they want to support have given up resistance.

Shui Jing knew that the reason why Huo Jue still wanted to go was because he couldn't accept the fact that the king had surrendered.

He was angry in his heart, angry that the king would not compete with the officials, and hated Daluan for being aggressive.Under the mixture of anger and hatred, he just wanted to rush into the enemy's battle line and fight in a bloody battle, even if his head and body were broken in the end, he would never recover.

However, he may be able to ignore life and death, but he will not ignore another thing.

Shui Jing looked at the Huo family army behind Huo Jue, and said, "Thirdly, the general might as well look back at these people who followed you. Because you were demoted, they disarmed and returned to the field, and because you called them, they put on horses again. Gathering and dispersing For you, because the people they are loyal to from the beginning to the end are you, the general, not the lord. In the past, you were loyal to the lord, and they followed you as the leader, and followed you in and out of the battlefield to fight bloody battles. But now the people you are loyal to have surrendered for their lives. , but you want these people who are loyal to you to accompany you to die for your grief. The general may wish to ask himself, can you be worthy of them?"

Huo Jue's eyes trembled slightly, and there seemed to be flashes of water in his eyes. He opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He lowered his head, gritted his teeth and tightly clenched the reins.

Shui Jing's words were very serious, and Huo's army was extremely uncomfortable hearing them. The soldier who had been standing behind Shui Jing on the top of the cliff saw Huo Jue's faintly red eyes, and couldn't help himself. He squatted down on the edge of the cliff and yelled Shouted: "General! Don't listen to his nonsense, there is nothing to be sorry for! You can do whatever you want, and the brothers will follow you without complaint!"

The rest of the Huo family army in the valley heard this, and hurriedly said: "Yes, General, we have no complaints!"

"Yes, no complaints!"

"No complaints!"

Shui Jing lowered his eyes and frowned, he knew that the few words Huo Jiajun uttered at this time were more poignant than the thousands of words he said, the more Huo Jiajun had no complaints or regrets, the more guilty Huo Jue would be.

Shui Jing got up on the ground, patted the dust behind her, and said slowly: "I don't want to care about the turmoil among the countries, but today I am fortunate enough to see the general's amazing skills and the extraordinary demeanor of the Huo family army. I just don’t want you sheep to go into the tiger’s mouth and lose your life. If the general still insists on going, I will not stop me anymore. That’s all I have to say, what to do, the general can do it for himself.”

After finishing speaking, Shui Jing turned around and walked towards the mountains.

"Wait!" Huo Jue suddenly shouted.

Shui Jing paused, turned around and looked down.

Huo Jue looked up at him, frowning slightly, his eyes full of puzzlement and doubt: "Your Excellency... who is it?"
