Half way generals don't marry

Chapter 96 - The City

After sending Gu Cheng out of the city, Ye Hongliao stood on the wall of Yueling City, looking at Duwei Mountain in the distance.

After watching for a long time, until the team that Gu Cheng went out to inspect turned into blurred black spots.

Ye Hongliao leaned on the city wall with both hands, he was afraid.

Three months ago, Lu Wenchong went to Duwei Mountain, and when he came back, he turned into a tombstone in the cemetery; three days ago, Jingzawa went to Duwei Mountain, and when he came back, he turned into a piece of white silk in Jing Zhai; now, Gu Cheng has gone Du Weishan, he was afraid.

"Don't move!"

There was a shout from behind, and Ye Hongliu turned around, and several Gu family soldiers were pointing their guns at a young man standing on the wall of the city wall not far away.The boy looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, ragged and skinny, holding a pile of papers tightly in his arms.

The child was completely unafraid of the guns facing him around him. Instead, he held the paper in his arms with one hand, and climbed up the fence with hands and feet.The boy's movements were very flexible, as if he had repeated this movement many times, climbing onto the city wall in the most comfortable and fastest way.

During this period, he actually looked back at Ye Hongliu.Ye Hongliu felt that the eyes that were protruding due to thinness actually reflected indifference and sinister.

"Get down!"

Gu Jiajun next to him shouted again.

The boy got up staggeringly, because he was holding something in his arms with one hand, it was very difficult for him to stand up.The hand holding the paper was tightly held by the young man, and the thick paper had scratch marks with his fingernails.

When the boy was staggering and trying to stand up, Ye Hongliu waved his hand to signal Gu Jiajun to back off, and moved towards the boy cautiously.

The young man tried several times, but finally his hands left the support of the city wall, maintaining a half-bowed posture.The young man let out a long breath, glanced at the paper in his arms, and then looked under the city wall beside him.At this moment, under the 20-meter city wall, there is already a sea of ​​people.

Ye Hongliu didn't know if he had read it wrong. The young man looked at the ground, one side of his mouth was raised without warmth, and his smile was even more sinister.

Perhaps the city wall was too high, and the half-bent boy looking at the ground suddenly swayed.

"Don't look down!"

Ye Hongliao shouted and immediately stretched out her hand.

The smirk on the swaying young man's face was replaced by stiff and normal fear, and after hearing Ye Hongliu's cry, he regained the coldness just now.The young man opened his hand, slowly straightened up while maintaining his balance while shaking.

The way the young man looked at Ye Hongliu was like a clown performing on stage and an emotionally fluctuating audience under the stands.The clown laughed because he knew his show was popular.

The young man smiled coldly and indifferently, and his straightened body was obviously out of the center of gravity that barely maintained his balance.Ye Hongliu leaped forward and stretched out his hand to grab the young man, most of his body was leaning towards the outside of the wall. The young man raised his hand and threw the paper in his arms towards Ye Hongliu's probing hand.The young man's full-body impact caused his whole body to bounce out of the city wall.

Ye Hongliu fluttered into the air on the wall, watching the young man fall down like a cicada's wings.He smiled slyly and proudly, flying among the scattered papers like a clown who had a successful curtain call.

The sea of ​​people under the city wall consciously vacated an open space, and the fallen boy fell to the ground as if he had completed his final flight.It was instantly buried by the paper floating in the air.

The white paper that buried him was instantly bright red.

In an instant, the papers scattered on the ground and flying in the air were snapped up by the citizens of Yueling under the city wall.But at this moment, in Ye Hongliu's hand, he was holding the paper whose corner was killed by that young man.

It was written in blood on the paper: Gu Yushan, blood debt paid with blood, Meng Hesheng.

Ten words will break the mutual support between Yueling City and Xunyang City; ten words will convey Meng Hesheng's anger to every citizen in Yueling City and every soldier of the Gu family army; ten words will make Ye Hongliu tremble with fear .

The common people and soldiers of the two cities did not know the methods and ruthlessness of the general of the Yanglin Army, Meng Hesheng.Especially when it comes to Menghe clothes.

Back then, that little soldier of the Yanglin Army was shot in his limbs just because he helped Meng Heyi sneak into the army. Although he was lucky enough to survive, he never got out of bed again.

In the war ten years ago, what method did he use to teach the captured enemy troops that life would be worse than death.Only because Meng Heyi participated in that battle.

Ye Hongliu didn't dare to look at the people under the city wall again, he knew what kind of crazy and fearful looting it was.

Ye Hongliao raised the paper in his hand, and punched hard on the city wall.Ye Hongliu didn't look at the trajectory of the paper falling with the wind, turned around and went down the city wall.

Ye Hongliu, who got off the city wall, came to Gu Yushan's study to report. Ye Hongliu tried hard not to hear the panic and rumors along the way.

In the study room, Xiaobing was reporting to Gu Yushan the rumors spreading in the city.It turned out that not only the young man Ye Hongliu saw, but also in every place where the common people gathered in Yueling City, there were such spreaders.

They either jumped from heights and fell to their deaths, or committed suicide by drinking bullets in places where crowds gathered.In this way, attract the attention of the people to achieve their real purpose.

Sitting next to the desk, Gu Yushan listened to Xiaobing's report very calmly, pondered for a while, and ordered: "Dispose of the corpse. Inform Jiang Yizhou and step up inspections in the city to prevent this kind of situation from happening again."

Gu Yushan was extremely calm, and the soldiers were ordered to retreat.Ye Hongliao stepped into the door of the study.

"General."

Ye Hongliao lowered her head and called out.

Gu Yushan looked at him with his forehead propped up, and said, "Scared?"

"Um……"

Ye Hongliao stared at the ground, and the image of the boy's fall reappeared in Ye Hongliao's mind over and over again.Ye Hongli felt that there was someone in his mind, reading the words on the paper over and over again.

"General..."

Ye Hongliu called out again, as if remembering something, raised his head and walked to the desk, picked up the bowl of porridge that was no longer warm on the table, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Gu Yushan was startled at first, but he didn't stop him. He just put his arms up and watched Ye Hongli eagerly sweep up the bowl of cold porridge.

Holding the empty bowl, Ye Hongliu swallowed the porridge stuffed in his mouth, looked at Gu Yushan, and said, "General, I'm going to Xunyang City."

Gu Yushan put down his supported hand, crossed his fingers in front of his chest, looked at Ye Hongliu, and asked, "Do you want to die?"

"I was the one who married Heyi, and I was the one who failed to protect Heyi. Meng Hesheng wanted to pay with blood, so I should be the damned one. Why should the general..."

"You ask why Meng Hesheng wants my blood to pay?"

Gu Yushan snorted, stared at Ye Hongliao and said, "Don't you understand why? Because I am the lord of Yueling City, and I am the general of the Gu family army! No matter who married He Yi that day, no matter who Whether it is in Yinliyuan or Yueling City, as long as he has an accident within the boundaries of my Yueling City, I will be responsible, and only I can be responsible."

"But He Yi agreed to this marriage in order to save me. I owe her my life. I..."

"Yehong Polygonum!"

Gu Yushan sternly reprimanded, interrupting Ye Hongliu's unspoken words.Ye Hongliao looked up blankly, looking at Gu Yushan who was already angry.

Gu Yushan, who was calm when he heard the soldier coming to report just now, lost his composure because of Ye Hongliu's words.

Gu Yushan was angry, angry that he still despised his own life like this.Rewarding him with three hundred army sticks hasn't improved his memory yet.

That day when he was arrested for stealing red lotus, he thought he could learn a lesson, but now it seems that Ye Hongliu completely forgot what he said.

Gu Yushan really regrets that he has only been used to him these few days and taught him to write and meditate.

It's not that Gu Yushan doesn't want to teach, but he doesn't know how to teach him in such a short time.I don't know what to teach him.

Military laws and regulations?Ye Hongliu, who defied the law, didn't need him to teach him at all; military tactics?He, Gu Yushan, has been under Zhao Menghe for more than ten years, and has become another Zhao Menghe. He doesn't want Ye Hongli to become another Gu Yushan; governing Yueling City?Gu Yushan himself doesn't know how to govern, how can he teach him?

Therefore, Gu Yushan only gave him Zhuoying, and only taught him to write and meditate.

Gu Yushan sighed, suppressing his anger and said: "Do you think that if you go to Xunyang City and give your head and hands to Meng Hesheng, he will just let it go? Do you think your life, Ye Hongliu, can really be wiped out?" Has the grievance between the two cities been resolved?"

Ye Hongliu lowered his head, he didn't know.Since Meng Hesheng wants to pay with blood, paying his life for his life is the only way he can think of, and it is also the only thing he can do.

Gu Yushan stood up, walked in front of Ye Hongliao, and said, "Even if you want to disappear, would the dead men hiding in Yueling City be willing?"

Ye Hongliao raised his head, looked at Gu Yushan, and asked suspiciously, "A dead man?"

"Yes, dead man."

Gu Yushan said: "Meng Hesheng is probably not the only one spreading these rumors. Even if you, Ye Hongliao, want to sacrifice your life for righteousness, the dead inside and outside the city will never give you this chance. Let alone sending yourself to Meng Hesheng's gun, I'm afraid As soon as you leave Yueling City, your life will be lost."

Ye Hongliao lowered his eyes, staring at the empty bowl in his hand, he didn't know what to do.

Gu Yushan glanced at the wound on his hand, and said: "I remember I said that even if you Ye Hongliu's life can really save Yueling City one day, you must find other solutions for me! You Now, what are you doing again?"

"General, I...I don't know what to do. I never thought things would be like this..."

Ye Hongliu saw her tears dripping into the clean bowl he had brushed.

He never thought that one wedding would turn into two funerals.I never thought that Izawa and Sansao would be gone.

He always thought, always thought that whether it was the third wife of Izawa, whether it was Lu Wenchong or Gu Cheng, whether it was Jiang Yizhou or Gu Mingshan, he never thought that any of them would leave.

But now, everything is raging like a storm.

Lu Wenchong's departure, Jingzawa and Sansao's murder, Lingo's murder, He Yi's murder, and Gu Mingshan's critical illness.He didn't know who was next.

But no matter who it is, Ye Hongliu dare not imagine.

The helplessness of being at a loss and unable to resist made Ye Hongliu tremble from the bottom of her heart.

Gu Yushan stroked his trembling shoulders, he didn't know how to comfort Ye Hongliu.

He is only 21 years old. If possible, Gu Yushan would rather that he is just the young master of the Gu family who only knows about romance, or a soldier in the Gu family army who runs amok under the protection of their brothers.

But Gu Yushan knew better that he couldn't do this.As Gu Yushan himself said, he is a soldier of the Gu family army, so his mission is higher than his life.

Born in this Gu mansion, one is destined to be born in turmoil, one is destined to live a lifetime of wind and waves.This is a member of Gu's family, and his fate was written at birth.

Gu Yushan took the empty bowl in his hand and put it on the desk beside him.He took out a handkerchief and wiped away the blood stains from the wound on his hand.

Ye Hongliu's hands clenched into fists, and the clenched fists trembled.

"Report to General!"

The soldier who broke in suddenly outside the door broke the long-lost warmth.

"General, Chief Gu Cheng has sent a message that Du Weishan has discovered that the enemy is attacking, please send troops to fight!"

Ye Honglian clenched his fists even tighter, looked at Gu Yushan and said, "General."

Gu Yushan took back the handkerchief, put his hands behind his back, and ordered: "Ye Hongliu obeys the order, and you can lead your troops to Duwei Mountain to fight."

Ye Hongliao saluted: "Yes, General!"

Then he left the Military Law Office without daring to delay for a moment.

Gu Yushan looked at the back of Ye Hongliu leaving in a hurry, and didn't even have time to say the phrase "be careful in everything".

But what Gu Yushan didn't expect was that the phrase "be careful in everything" that he didn't have time to say turned out to be his lifelong regret.

The author has something to say:
