It was at the moment when the phone was cut off that Zhao Gou really realized what kind of enemy he was facing.
Although there are only two cities in Linguo, Jiangyin and Yangzhou, the contact between the two cities and the monitoring of the situation are all clear and direct, and there will be no information difference in any status.
But the state of Song is different, and the state of Jin is even more different.
When the head of state of Linguo hung up the phone, not only could all his communication with Xiangyang and Sizhou fail, but even the monitoring rooms in the palace that were used to monitor the Privy Council and other areas were all paralyzed, and there was no one left. It makes sense.
What is more difficult than this is the time to wait for the information to be fed back again.
Compared with Tokyo, which is far away from the Kingdom of Jin, Yangzhou is quite close to Lin'an——
With Yangzhou's horseless cart, it only takes one hour to reach Lin'an at the fastest, while their fast horses take about two to three hours to go back and forth before they can report the battle situation.
Zhao Gou was afraid of too many things.
He was afraid that Lin Guo, who came from nowhere like a ghost, would spread out and swallow the world, he was afraid that Jin Guo was secretly colluding with Lin Guo and planning to join his army against him, he was afraid that his two princes would die in chaos In the hands of the army, he was even more afraid that the seemingly peaceful Lin'an City would be burned to the ground by sky fire at some point.
The civil and military ministers waiting below did not think this way.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if the development of Lin'an City is allowed to continue to swallow iron and gold, Song and Jin's disasters will only increase. Although making deals with Lin's country can strengthen national defense, it can more effectively resist the temptation of the Jin Dynasty , but the ultimate winner will only be Linguo.
In their war this time, they called on the militia rebels from the three nearby routes, and even mobilized the elite troops of Jin and Song. They summoned almost all the resources they could use, and what they wanted was to wipe out the existence of Linguo.
——The matter of Song and Jin can be discussed later, but Linguo must be destroyed!
The first urgent report was sent back to Lin'an that night.
"Report!The advance army was killed by skyfire ten miles away, and only a dozen people survived! 』
Zhao Gou's face changed, and he wanted to call Liu Xun regardless of his courtier's obstruction, but no matter which number he dialed, it was useless.
The remote device, which was like an artifact before, is now as useless as a stone.
"Report!3 people in the Golden Army have been burned and killed by the black oil shop from the sky! 』
"Report!There are meteorites falling from the sky one after another at the Nancheng Gate, making it difficult to set up an formation! 』
"Report!Thunderstorms fell from the sky at the gate of Jiangyin City, and the attackers were wiped out! 』
Lu You heard his veins tense, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, the young man from Lin'an City is probably also a traitor they sent, why don't you just kill him!"
Zhao Gou waved his hand and sat back on the dragon chair with complicated emotions, without speaking for a while.
The development of this matter is completely out of their control.
Li Shi is a person who personally supervised the battle, and now he doesn't know whether he is dead or alive.
The news from the battle report is actually almost the same as the legendary script.
It can even be said that if you want to rely on the Classic of Mountains and Seas, you can rely on it.
For a while, it was said that it was thunder from the sky, but it only killed Song Jun;
There are more reports that there is a heavenly dragon appearing in the world, hovering over the east city wall, dousing the fire on the city wall with heavenly water, and even attacking everyone under the city wall.
If it was really a dragon, why didn't Tianlong protect the people of the Song Dynasty, and didn't appear in front of Zhao Gou, but instead let the yellow-haired boy surnamed Liu drive him around like a servant!
If Linguo is really the kingdom of the gods, why didn't he take the initiative to expand after taking Yangzhou, and didn't mean to split up the war to seize the land——
They obviously have thunder and fire and giant dragons, so why are they only satisfied with one Yangzhou city, and there is no more movement? !
Even if Zhao Gou didn't lift the table and drop the teacup, the ministers could understand his mood——
Who is the side that is attacking the city? ! !
In history, the most similar period is the Battle of Suiyang.
At that time when the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan guarded Suiyang. At most, their strength was less than 7000. They defended the city for nearly ten months, and they fought more than [-] times.
The battle to defend the city was so tragic that the bark, paper and even the dead bodies were eaten up, but Zhang Xun and others killed nearly 12 rebels with only their troops and supplies.
But after all, Suiyang ran out of ammunition and food, and exchanged the life of a city for the rebirth and revival of Datang.
The current situation is that, from the beginning to the end, in a total of six days, 17 people either died or fled, all of them were deported and strangled!
Even if it was dealing with prisoners of war, how could it be possible to kill them so quickly!
The only order Zhao Gou can give here is not to send new sergeants, and to pay attention to the border situation between the Jin and Song Dynasties.
It wasn't until the eighth day that the new battle report came from afar——
The little official riding a fast horse ran so that his cheeks were covered with blood, and his body was covered with ashes and blood. When he spoke, his voice was hoarse: "Sizhou——Sizhou has fallen!"
"what?!!"
"They have already reached Chuzhou and Haizhou, and Xuzhou and Suzhou in the west may be sooner or later!"
When Zhao Gou heard this, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Are there any troops coming to Lin'an City?"
"No..." The clerk knelt on the ground, he had no strength to stand up anymore, and he only spoke intermittently: "In the south of Yangzhou, everyone is cleaning up the mountain of corpses, and there is no intention of calling here..."
Huang Zhong, a scholar of the Duanming Palace next to him, didn't care about etiquette, and directly stepped forward and asked, "Is there a massacre?!"
If Lin Guo was so furious that he would use all means to slaughter the people, at least Jin Song would still have a reason to contend against him!
"No..." The little official felt blood in his throat when he spoke, and his voice was hoarse and somewhat vague: "When Linguo captured the second city of Sihai, it was all... just like Yangzhou was captured at that time."
Blow up the city wall, bombard the people, disperse those who do not stay, and release the strong men recruited by the old yamen.
All those who wanted to resist were suppressed by tear gas and smoke bombs. After binding their hands, all iron weapons were confiscated and sent outside the city.
The ease of the gesture is almost like that of a master retrieving what is rightfully his.
Zhao Gou was extremely angry at the moment, only felt a mouthful of blood stuck in his heart, so that his whole body was depressed and oppressed. After a long while, he smiled angrily: "Okay! Okay!!!"
That Haizhou and Chuzhou were originally the bargaining chips that were handed over during the talks between the three countries. Now Yangzhou sent troops to snatch those places, which is something that cannot be condemned regardless of morality and benevolence.
He himself said that Sizhou was full of rioting people, and that the Song Kingdom was limited and difficult to discipline, so Linguo directly killed them and swallowed up all the commercial ports. The so-called mobs naturally died under the city of Yangzhou. There was no resistance room!
Now the people of Linguo are probably going to turn against the army and swallow up all this huge country on the grounds of suppressing the riots for the Kingdom of Jin and Song!
Before those terrified civil servants could figure out a way out, another eunuch rushed over from a distance, saying that it was an envoy from the Kingdom of Jin!
Zhao Gou covered his face and sighed, shaking his head from side to side as if trying to get rid of something, letting the eunuch wait in panic.
"Let them in."
Li Shi's whereabouts are still unknown, other generals of the Jin Kingdom were either killed or injured, and the Song Kingdom was not much better.
Among the envoys, there were important officials from the Jin Kingdom and Song officials after the rebellion, and now they all stood in the Lin'an hall with expressions of rage, as if they wanted to ask Zhao Gou for an explanation.
There is no intention of stopping Linguo's siege of the city, and it is constantly encroaching all the way north. How can Jin Guo not panic!
This incident was jointly provoked by the Jin and Song Dynasties, and now it is the Jin Kingdom that has suffered heavy losses——
If we continue to fight like this, we will hit Tokyo!
"Zhao Gou," the important official of the Kingdom of Jin didn't even bother to worry about his face, and reprimanded in public: "The emperor of the Kingdom of Jin ordered you to go to Yizhou to make amends and negotiate with Linguo. Go south, break your Lin'an city!"
Zhao Gou looked at the person who scolded him in a daze, and his mind was already in chaos.
Lin Guo and Wan Yanyong have already joined forces?
The Kingdom of Jin has now become a vassal of the Kingdom of Lin, and started to speak for them?
Why didn't Linguo continue to fight?
He didn't have a mobile phone or a radio station, and all the news he knew was most likely three or four days ago or even earlier.
What the situation has become now is beyond comprehension.
The Shaoxing peace talks 22 years ago allowed him to live intoxicated until now.
Now, this neighboring country has given him the hope of extending his descendants and the country, but he controls and interferes in everything with such a condescending attitude!
That arrogant and arrogant Jin Guo is now being held to his weakness, being led by the nose by that twenty-something Liu Xi!
How—how ridiculous!
-
When Wan Yanliang saw Liu Xi for the first time, he felt that this matter was extremely absurd.
This time, Linguo counterattacked from Yangzhou to Yizhou within three days with the momentum of a smashing bamboo. Both the offensive and the deterrent power have exceeded everyone's imagination.
It was as if the 17 people encircling and suppressing the city did not exist.
For the sake of the overall situation and to stabilize the situation, he must come forward and negotiate peace.
——This has nothing to do with Tang Yiyunqi and his ilk.
Although they did suggest this, Wan Yanliang also understands that after the 20 years of turmoil in the Kingdom of Jin, what is more needed is to stabilize order and rebuild.
Because of this, when Lin Guo sent someone to ask Jin Guo for his opinion, he himself couldn't sit still.
The people of Linguo behaved innocently and justly——
From their point of view, the mob came from multiple directions and wanted to destroy the city. After the anti-killing, they cleaned up the source of the riot, took the city that was agreed to be given to them before, and stopped at Yi Zhou, I want to talk to the people from the Kingdom of Jin again.
Wan Yanyong brought a group of ministers and the two Linguo people there, he did not forget to put on a majestic and dignified appearance, no matter what, he wanted to find a place in front of the Linguo people.
Before he walked into the central hall, he had countless ideas about Liu Xi in his mind.
The country ruled by this person has countless rare and exotic beasts, and he can manipulate the dragon, fire, and even thunderbolt, so he should be a fairy-like figure no matter what.
What's more, he was in charge of defending the city, and when the defense was stable, he directly sent generals to attack Sizhou in the north. On the same day, he took Sizhou, one of the main sources of income of the Song Dynasty.
But the moment he walked in, he saw a thin and pale young man.
Due to staying up late and staying up all night, Liu Xi's complexion was not very good.
Although Li Luan and Sun Ci both proposed to put some BB cream on him and put on some lipstick, they were still rejected by Liu Yuanshou.
From Wan Yanyong's point of view, the young man had his hair cut short, wearing tight and strange clothes, and he didn't have anything that looked expensive.
——He didn't understand the price of the watch on Liu Xi's wrist.
Then unexpectedly, before he could figure out how to speak, the young man walked down, smiled and shook hands with him.
Wan Yanyong was a little confused by the handshake.
What kind of etiquette is this...
Liu Xi didn't directly mention military and political matters to him, but instead asked him with a smile what kind of special snacks this Yizhou had, and he could bring some for the little ones at home later.
If you take it in another direction, just wait for Mr. Zhao to come and talk again.
Wan Yanyong was a little dizzy by his tricks, but only nodded slightly, following this person's topic.
The speed of Linguo's siege was so fast that it was monstrous.
Wan Yanyong listened to what his envoys were saying, and absent-mindedly thought about the war news from the scouts.
They seem to have a magic in their hands, called... Dynamite?
Whether it is a stone wall several feet high or a fortified barrier, as long as you ignite the so-called explosives, you can break into the city in an instant——
In that case, if they want to fight all the way to Tokyo or even go to Beijing, there will be no problem.
The city walls that need to be maintained for more than several years can be destroyed at will like tofu in front of that explosive, so what's the point of the things they worked so hard to build?
Zhao Gou came too slowly.
He didn't dare to ride in the car he bought before, so he came all the way here in a carriage.
Liu Xi ate and slept well these two days, and chatted with people like Wan Yanyong if he had nothing to do, so he just ordered his subordinates to keep an eye on Yun Qi and Tang Yi.
But the two of them didn't seem to be moving, they were as calm as outsiders.
It was not until the sixth day of occupying Yizhou that Zhao Gou finally arrived with his ministers.
By this time, Wan Yanyong had gotten used to Liu Xi's approachable and talkative attitude, and even vaguely felt that this was not a big deal——
The city of Yangzhou has not been defeated, the shame of the Three Kingdoms has not been torn apart, and the Lin Kingdom has occupied several cities, half of which belong to the Jin Kingdom and half belong to the Song Kingdom, is it almost enough?
As soon as Zhao Gou appeared in their field of vision, Liu Xi laughed.
"Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Zhao sit down." He glanced sideways at Wanyan Yong who was sitting next to him, clapped his hands, and ordered: "It's time to get down to business."
With the sound of applause, six people were escorted in front of them.
Wei Sheng, Sizhou prefect, Li Shi...
Almost all those involved in the Yangzhou Rebellion were arrested.
When Zhao Gou and Wan Yanyong saw the familiar courtiers, their eyes narrowed and they almost stood up.
Li Shi had already been silenced, he hesitated and couldn't speak at all.
Wan Yanyong originally thought that Liu Xi was a good stubble, but at this moment, he directly felt that he was thrown in the ice cellar, seeing his uncle being tied up, he felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles, but it was difficult to speak.
"The chaos in Yangzhou was naturally not intentional by the Jin and Song Dynasties. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Linguo to stop. Now we are still negotiating terms with the two countries, right?"
Liu Xun got up slowly, walked around the six people, and said calmly: "During the diplomatic phone call before, Mr. Zhao said that he couldn't control the rebels under him, and that the rebels in Sizhou were frequent, and the government could do nothing. "
"Then, I will help you solve these problems."
He raised his head, looked at the ashen-faced two people in the seat and smiled, "No need to praise, it's just a matter of little effort."
Qian Fan was most annoyed by this kind of grinding and haggling diplomatic occasions. He was too embarrassed to smoke directly when he was addicted to cigarettes, so he just sat next to him and drank cup after cup of tea.
"This--there must be some misunderstanding," Wan Yanyong never thought that Li Shi would fall into his hands. Before, his subordinates quietly inquired about the news but found nothing. Looking at his uncle now, he was very anxious: "Please invite Liu The head of state thinks twice."
"If I'm not mistaken, this Mr. Li Shi seems to be the prime minister and nobleman of the Kingdom of Jin before." Liu Xi lowered his eyes and said in a playful tone: "So, he led the army to attack Yangzhou, not intentionally to rebel and seek chaos, But Mr. Wanyan intentionally granted it?"
He paused, looked at the emperors of the Song and Jin kingdoms with a smile and said, "It's impossible. The emperors of the two countries deliberately destroyed the city of Yangzhou, so that Linguo would be overthrown."
Everyone knows he's playing dumb, everyone knows he's acting.
However, no one can say a word about it.
The Jin and Song Dynasties have lost nearly 20 soldiers and horses, while the casualties in Linguo are almost zero in comparison.
This is already a terrifying gap.
If the Three Kingdoms go to war, they will know what the result will be without fighting.
"Mr. Liu," Zhao Gou forced a smile and said, "What about the Three Kingdoms peace talks?"
"The cause of the Yangzhou Rebellion has not been resolved yet. What is Mr. Zhao anxious about?" Liu Xi blinked and said calmly, "You execute the traitor in front of me, and we will talk further."
He coughed, and Qian Fan next to him reacted, immediately got up and put down his teacup, and showed a list.
"There are also these participants and those in charge, who are naturally the instigators of the disaster." Liu Xi said slowly: "If there are too many people, we won't all be charged up, and please Jin and Song Dynasty to solve these troubles in front of us. That's good."
Since you can't catch it, people from Linguo will come and catch it.
I caught it and sent it to you, and solved it for you with my own hands.
As soon as Wei Sheng, Li Shi and others heard Liu Xi's words, they immediately began to struggle and howl, desperately trying to get out the gag, so as to find a way out for themselves.
Wei Sheng stared at Zhao Gou with both eyes, and his prayer was beyond words.
Is this the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty? At the beginning, he secretly sent someone to invite him to help out, saying that he wanted to take back Yangzhou to uphold the prestige of the Great Song Dynasty. Now the emperor refuses to take a second look at himself!
He, Wei Sheng, who spent his whole life in the army, was willing to throw his head and blood for the court, how could he be regarded as a criminal minister now-he was still beheaded and killed by the people of Song State!
When the news about Yue Fei reached his ears, although he sighed regretfully and felt worthless for that hero, he never imagined that this day would happen to him!
Wan Yanyong looked at his uncle, took a deep breath for a moment, and kept silent.
If he defended his uncle, it would mean that Jin Guo ordered this prime minister to send troops to the country. Then the forts stationed in Yizhou would go straight north, and it is very possible to take down Tokyo.
But... this is the uncle who watched him grow up.
"Why don't you take it back and interrogate it in detail?" Zhao Gou suggested without giving up: "What if General Qian arrests the wrong person?"
Liu Zi sat back in his original position, took a sip of tea and said, "No."
He was too lazy to make up any more reasons.
No way is no way.
Since Song Jin wanted to backstab, and since he turned against Lin Guo at the same time after signing the tripartite contract, he had to bear the corresponding price.
Since they didn't dare to openly become enemies with Lin Guo, and they still had to find an excuse to beautify their behavior when doing such a thing, then Liu Xi let them cover it up at will - but the bitter fruit will always be eaten by themselves.
"Moreover, it's today." Qian Fan yawned, and said openly: "The Lin army is stationed in Yizhou, and naturally it is also consuming engine oil, food and grass, and there will always be losses—don't delay."
"But... this..." The minister next to him tried to plead for the master: "The Song Dynasty came this time, and it didn't bring a criminal officer or anything..."
"The Kingdom of Jin can borrow it." Qian Fan propped his chin and said, "They killed for you, wouldn't you save your compatriots from killing each other?"
When Zhao Gou heard these words, he stood up immediately.
He has too many words that are stuffed in his heart, and he wants to yell out directly in front of Liu Xi——
Now that your Linguo is so powerful, why are you still fussing about this kind of thing!
Since you can defend Yangzhou City, why do you want to kill my siege army horses!
Since it is so easy for you to defeat the siege army, why are you so cautious that you want to go all the way to the north and make things worse!
What a kingdom of gods, what heavenly dragons, ghosts and birds, without any kindness and compassion, forced Zhao Gou to be in such a dilemma!
Liu Xi watched Zhao Gou stand up abruptly, looked up at him and said, "Mr. Zhao, what do you want to say?"
Zhao Gou's eyes were red, and all the blood was rushing to his brain, but when he saw the young eyes, his whole body turned cold.
He can't beat him now.
If they wanted to capture Lin'an City in Lin'an Kingdom, they would have no trouble at all, they were just waiting for a result.
"Mr. Liu...you are right."
Zhao Gou suppressed the resentment and violence in his heart, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Prime Minister Tang, fetch the imperial edict."
-
Before Wei Sheng died, his heart was cold.
What he doesn't know is that even if there is no change in time and space, even if there is no Linguo in history, his fate is to be betrayed and betrayed by the Huaidong Road appeasement envoy Liu Bao sent by the court, and finally die on the way back to Chuzhou.
In the old history, he was posthumously appointed as the governor of the Baoning Army by the imperial court, and a "Praise Loyalty Temple" was built for him in Zhenjiang, but people died like lights, and many things contained no matter how much resentment and resentment Anger doesn't make any sense anymore.
On the Yangzhou side, although news from Yizhou came back one after another, and the content of the peace talks was also being sent back to the Senate, it was not too important.
This is the first time for everyone in Linguo to face the war so intuitively.
Both Jiangyin and Yangzhou people have been forcing themselves to accept and digest this fact for more than half a month.
When the Jin soldiers attacked the city last year, all the military forces were concentrated outside the Iron Curtain in Beicheng.
Although the people in the city could hear the roars and vibrations, they couldn't imagine what happened.
All the people in the Senate and the army are bearing all this for the city and the common people.
But this time is different.
This time, Yangzhou was besieged on all sides, and tens of thousands of corpses were lying in front of Jiangyin City. Even the water in the city had to queue up to receive filtered and purified water.
It is said that someone even fished out the bones in the well, and had nightmares for several days because of this, and it was useless to invite a doctor.
This war was launched by Song and Jin, but everyone in Yangzhou had to bear the corresponding tragedy and consequences.
Li Luan was coordinating with the deputy minister of the Ministry of National Defense to deal with the follow-up duties of defending the city and cleaning up the battlefield, and he was very busy.
She wanted to find a way to get rid of those unknown things on the city wall, so much so that she even wanted to tear down the city wall and build a new one.
And the tens of thousands of corpses that have begun to rot in front of Jiangyin City Gate are by no means something that can be handled casually.
Digging pits and burning corpses, using forklifts and bulldozers to deal with the remnants outside the city, renovating and shaping the road surface, and a series of related things are very troublesome.
So much so that she was so busy that when Liu Xi and the others were about to return, she didn't realize Long Yue's existence.
where is she?
Is she okay?
Li Luan boasted that he was indifferent to life and death, and was even ready to die at any time. When facing the head and stumps hanging on the south gate, he felt sick.
After the change of time and space, she was completely without father or mother, and she had originally planned to live alone for the rest of her life.
That reckless and gentle girl always came to visit her in the Senate and brought her hot soup, porridge and snacks, which was always heart-warming.
After confirming that things were in an orderly state, Li Luan finally let go of the matter and handed it over to his subordinates. He grabbed the windbreaker and hurriedly put it on, and went out to find Long Yue who didn't know where he was going.
"She is in medical school." Long Mu said on the other side of the phone: "It seems that her mood is not stable."
"What about you?" Li Luan subconsciously said, "Are you okay?"
"I'm still looking at the sixth optimization plan for the Tesla electric coil..." Long Mu paused, and then said with some doubts: "If you're asking about the body, thank you, I'm fine."
Li Luan frowned, and drove directly to the medical school in Jiangyin City.
This place has completely become a new hospital.
Dozens of wounded were transferred here and received the best rescue and treatment from everyone in the hospital.
However, due to the long time in the past, the dozens of people who could be saved were basically lying down to recuperate, and those who could not be saved basically passed away.
This... is more like an inpatient department.
Li Luan hurriedly searched for two or three floors before seeing that familiar figure in the dispensing room.
Long Yue is almost 19 years old.
But 19 years old is still too young to face these.
She is eight years older than Long Yue, and now she can only say that she can barely live in her heart, so she is more worried about her.
"Li--sister Li?" Long Yue's hair was not messed up, and his eyes were slightly blue. He thought he hadn't slept well at all, so he forced a smile and said in a warm voice, "Is Sister Li here to get the medicine?"
"You lend me 15 minutes." Li Luan directly grabbed her wrist and led her to an empty classroom: "Since there is no rescue arrangement or operation, you can do it later if you have anything to do."
"Okay—okay." Long Yue followed her into the empty classroom a little blankly, and was still at a loss when he saw her take out a soft blanket from her bag: "Sister Li, what do you want to do?" .”
"Crisis psychological intervention." Li Luan took a deep breath and said, "Sit down and give me your hands."
Long Yue has always been very obedient in front of her. Now he sat with his legs crossed and let her hold his hands tightly, but he still said stiffly: "Why am I not feeling well, I'm really fine."
"What did you see?" Li Luan frowned and said, "I heard from them that during the days of the siege, you followed the medical team everywhere to give first aid."
Long Yue had never held her hands so solemnly before, the defense and fear in his heart were slowly dissipating, and his voice became much quieter unknowingly.
"……die."
I've seen...many people die.
They cried and struggled in front of me, even begging me to save their lives.
In all, I've seen 46 people die.
Li Luan sighed with complicated emotions, held her hands and said, "Let me guide you to do basic loving-kindness meditation."
"When I am not around in the future, when you feel fear, despair and guilt, you must follow this process to pull yourself back."
Long Yue stared at her blankly, and called out uneasily: "Sister Li..."
"Close your eyes."
Li Luan's voice was always a little hoarse because of smoking.
But now that night is approaching, the surrounding environment is also quiet and peaceful.
When her voice sounded again, there seemed to be a magical power that could calm people's hearts.
"Now, relax your mind and let me guide you to find your love and joy again."
"Empty your mind and begin to inhale quietly and exhale slowly."
The moment Long Yue's spirit relaxed, all the scenes of suffering and despair that he had witnessed in those few days began to surge up uncontrollably.
But Li Luan's palm was so warm that when she wanted to cry, she would not have the urge to run away.
"Inhale...exhale..."
"Feel your own presence, and what it's like to sit with you."
Those memories kept churning in her mind, and all the negative emotions were trying to control her heart, making her sink with them.
Long Yue closed his eyes, his body began to tremble uncontrollably, he clenched Li Luan's hands like a drowning person, forcing himself to continue to take a deep breath and find his own existence.
"Now, start using your own imagination and feel a circle of people standing around you."
Li Luan's voice was warm and soft, and continued to guide her to see the scene in her heart.
"And these people are the ones who care about you."
"Count, there are one, two, three..."
Long Yue closed her eyes, realizing that her tears began to fall uncontrollably, those twisted and deformed limbs were still flashing afterimages in front of her, but with Li Luan's counting lightly, she was gradually able to see blurred figures, Surrounding and protecting yourself.
"Let them surround you and bring you love and joy."
"Their feelings for you are not necessarily pure love."
"But the important thing is that these people have treated you kindly."
"They nourished you with love."
With his eyes closed, Long Yue saw his parents smiling, Long Mu standing beside him, Li Luan with firm eyes, and all her friends who were near or far.
They seemed to be really standing by their side, watching them silently, while the light and warmth spread quietly and became more and more real.
It started to rain drippingly outside the window, Li Luan's voice was still hoarse and warm.
In the past, when she was suffering and desperate, living in endless fear and guilt, it was Liu Xi who took her out like this.
Now, she can also lead others to regain inner peace and love.
"You can see everyone in your circle, and they can see you."
"Adjust to a suitable distance from them, you only need to slowly observe who they are."
Long Yue took a deep breath, tears still flowing, as if venting and releasing something.
Li Luan looked at her quietly, only holding her hands tightly, never letting go.
"Look each one of them in the eye and feel their kindness, their kindness, and their love."
"Try to accept these...bring this warm love back to your own heart."
At this moment, those impacts and cries in Long Yue's memory seemed to be separated from the outside, becoming blurred and difficult to identify.
The guilt and pain that made her restless these days seemed to be separated by a gentle barrier, and her restless heart began to calm down slowly.
Her hands have been cold for too long, but now they are slowly warming up.
Li Luan's guidance was still gentle and patient.
The entire meditation process took less than 10 minutes, but to Long Yue, it seemed like a whole century had passed.
She was unaware of the tears on her face and her trembling body.
Although her eyes are closed, she can see all the people who love her and protect her.
Even the untouchable parents smiled sincerely and gently.
"Now, say goodbye to everyone in the circle."
Li Luan realized that she was starting to panic again, so he only squeezed her hands reassuringly.
"Give them a hug, or bow to them."
No...don't, don't leave me.
Long Yue almost cried and choked, she didn't want to open her eyes at all, and she couldn't do without every warm existence in her mind.
The reality was so cold that she opened all her defenses and tried her best to avoid all the darkness and crying caused by this war.
"As you say goodbye to everyone, let them melt into a light, a warm light in your heart."
Li Luan's palm gently caressed her cheek, his tone was as warm as before.
"Long Yue, open your eyes after you say goodbye."
The two sat silently in the dark classroom, the sobbing gradually stopped.
When Long Yue opened his eyes, he saw Li Luan's shallow smile.
She still exists firmly and powerfully, and has never left herself.
Li Luan looked at the girl and suddenly thought of himself many years ago.
"Don't blame yourself, don't feel guilty, just do what you should do now, okay?"
"When I am not around, please live firmly and peacefully."
She took the tissue, wiped away the tears all over her face, and nodded slightly.
Although there are only two cities in Linguo, Jiangyin and Yangzhou, the contact between the two cities and the monitoring of the situation are all clear and direct, and there will be no information difference in any status.
But the state of Song is different, and the state of Jin is even more different.
When the head of state of Linguo hung up the phone, not only could all his communication with Xiangyang and Sizhou fail, but even the monitoring rooms in the palace that were used to monitor the Privy Council and other areas were all paralyzed, and there was no one left. It makes sense.
What is more difficult than this is the time to wait for the information to be fed back again.
Compared with Tokyo, which is far away from the Kingdom of Jin, Yangzhou is quite close to Lin'an——
With Yangzhou's horseless cart, it only takes one hour to reach Lin'an at the fastest, while their fast horses take about two to three hours to go back and forth before they can report the battle situation.
Zhao Gou was afraid of too many things.
He was afraid that Lin Guo, who came from nowhere like a ghost, would spread out and swallow the world, he was afraid that Jin Guo was secretly colluding with Lin Guo and planning to join his army against him, he was afraid that his two princes would die in chaos In the hands of the army, he was even more afraid that the seemingly peaceful Lin'an City would be burned to the ground by sky fire at some point.
The civil and military ministers waiting below did not think this way.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if the development of Lin'an City is allowed to continue to swallow iron and gold, Song and Jin's disasters will only increase. Although making deals with Lin's country can strengthen national defense, it can more effectively resist the temptation of the Jin Dynasty , but the ultimate winner will only be Linguo.
In their war this time, they called on the militia rebels from the three nearby routes, and even mobilized the elite troops of Jin and Song. They summoned almost all the resources they could use, and what they wanted was to wipe out the existence of Linguo.
——The matter of Song and Jin can be discussed later, but Linguo must be destroyed!
The first urgent report was sent back to Lin'an that night.
"Report!The advance army was killed by skyfire ten miles away, and only a dozen people survived! 』
Zhao Gou's face changed, and he wanted to call Liu Xun regardless of his courtier's obstruction, but no matter which number he dialed, it was useless.
The remote device, which was like an artifact before, is now as useless as a stone.
"Report!3 people in the Golden Army have been burned and killed by the black oil shop from the sky! 』
"Report!There are meteorites falling from the sky one after another at the Nancheng Gate, making it difficult to set up an formation! 』
"Report!Thunderstorms fell from the sky at the gate of Jiangyin City, and the attackers were wiped out! 』
Lu You heard his veins tense, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, the young man from Lin'an City is probably also a traitor they sent, why don't you just kill him!"
Zhao Gou waved his hand and sat back on the dragon chair with complicated emotions, without speaking for a while.
The development of this matter is completely out of their control.
Li Shi is a person who personally supervised the battle, and now he doesn't know whether he is dead or alive.
The news from the battle report is actually almost the same as the legendary script.
It can even be said that if you want to rely on the Classic of Mountains and Seas, you can rely on it.
For a while, it was said that it was thunder from the sky, but it only killed Song Jun;
There are more reports that there is a heavenly dragon appearing in the world, hovering over the east city wall, dousing the fire on the city wall with heavenly water, and even attacking everyone under the city wall.
If it was really a dragon, why didn't Tianlong protect the people of the Song Dynasty, and didn't appear in front of Zhao Gou, but instead let the yellow-haired boy surnamed Liu drive him around like a servant!
If Linguo is really the kingdom of the gods, why didn't he take the initiative to expand after taking Yangzhou, and didn't mean to split up the war to seize the land——
They obviously have thunder and fire and giant dragons, so why are they only satisfied with one Yangzhou city, and there is no more movement? !
Even if Zhao Gou didn't lift the table and drop the teacup, the ministers could understand his mood——
Who is the side that is attacking the city? ! !
In history, the most similar period is the Battle of Suiyang.
At that time when the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan guarded Suiyang. At most, their strength was less than 7000. They defended the city for nearly ten months, and they fought more than [-] times.
The battle to defend the city was so tragic that the bark, paper and even the dead bodies were eaten up, but Zhang Xun and others killed nearly 12 rebels with only their troops and supplies.
But after all, Suiyang ran out of ammunition and food, and exchanged the life of a city for the rebirth and revival of Datang.
The current situation is that, from the beginning to the end, in a total of six days, 17 people either died or fled, all of them were deported and strangled!
Even if it was dealing with prisoners of war, how could it be possible to kill them so quickly!
The only order Zhao Gou can give here is not to send new sergeants, and to pay attention to the border situation between the Jin and Song Dynasties.
It wasn't until the eighth day that the new battle report came from afar——
The little official riding a fast horse ran so that his cheeks were covered with blood, and his body was covered with ashes and blood. When he spoke, his voice was hoarse: "Sizhou——Sizhou has fallen!"
"what?!!"
"They have already reached Chuzhou and Haizhou, and Xuzhou and Suzhou in the west may be sooner or later!"
When Zhao Gou heard this, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Are there any troops coming to Lin'an City?"
"No..." The clerk knelt on the ground, he had no strength to stand up anymore, and he only spoke intermittently: "In the south of Yangzhou, everyone is cleaning up the mountain of corpses, and there is no intention of calling here..."
Huang Zhong, a scholar of the Duanming Palace next to him, didn't care about etiquette, and directly stepped forward and asked, "Is there a massacre?!"
If Lin Guo was so furious that he would use all means to slaughter the people, at least Jin Song would still have a reason to contend against him!
"No..." The little official felt blood in his throat when he spoke, and his voice was hoarse and somewhat vague: "When Linguo captured the second city of Sihai, it was all... just like Yangzhou was captured at that time."
Blow up the city wall, bombard the people, disperse those who do not stay, and release the strong men recruited by the old yamen.
All those who wanted to resist were suppressed by tear gas and smoke bombs. After binding their hands, all iron weapons were confiscated and sent outside the city.
The ease of the gesture is almost like that of a master retrieving what is rightfully his.
Zhao Gou was extremely angry at the moment, only felt a mouthful of blood stuck in his heart, so that his whole body was depressed and oppressed. After a long while, he smiled angrily: "Okay! Okay!!!"
That Haizhou and Chuzhou were originally the bargaining chips that were handed over during the talks between the three countries. Now Yangzhou sent troops to snatch those places, which is something that cannot be condemned regardless of morality and benevolence.
He himself said that Sizhou was full of rioting people, and that the Song Kingdom was limited and difficult to discipline, so Linguo directly killed them and swallowed up all the commercial ports. The so-called mobs naturally died under the city of Yangzhou. There was no resistance room!
Now the people of Linguo are probably going to turn against the army and swallow up all this huge country on the grounds of suppressing the riots for the Kingdom of Jin and Song!
Before those terrified civil servants could figure out a way out, another eunuch rushed over from a distance, saying that it was an envoy from the Kingdom of Jin!
Zhao Gou covered his face and sighed, shaking his head from side to side as if trying to get rid of something, letting the eunuch wait in panic.
"Let them in."
Li Shi's whereabouts are still unknown, other generals of the Jin Kingdom were either killed or injured, and the Song Kingdom was not much better.
Among the envoys, there were important officials from the Jin Kingdom and Song officials after the rebellion, and now they all stood in the Lin'an hall with expressions of rage, as if they wanted to ask Zhao Gou for an explanation.
There is no intention of stopping Linguo's siege of the city, and it is constantly encroaching all the way north. How can Jin Guo not panic!
This incident was jointly provoked by the Jin and Song Dynasties, and now it is the Jin Kingdom that has suffered heavy losses——
If we continue to fight like this, we will hit Tokyo!
"Zhao Gou," the important official of the Kingdom of Jin didn't even bother to worry about his face, and reprimanded in public: "The emperor of the Kingdom of Jin ordered you to go to Yizhou to make amends and negotiate with Linguo. Go south, break your Lin'an city!"
Zhao Gou looked at the person who scolded him in a daze, and his mind was already in chaos.
Lin Guo and Wan Yanyong have already joined forces?
The Kingdom of Jin has now become a vassal of the Kingdom of Lin, and started to speak for them?
Why didn't Linguo continue to fight?
He didn't have a mobile phone or a radio station, and all the news he knew was most likely three or four days ago or even earlier.
What the situation has become now is beyond comprehension.
The Shaoxing peace talks 22 years ago allowed him to live intoxicated until now.
Now, this neighboring country has given him the hope of extending his descendants and the country, but he controls and interferes in everything with such a condescending attitude!
That arrogant and arrogant Jin Guo is now being held to his weakness, being led by the nose by that twenty-something Liu Xi!
How—how ridiculous!
-
When Wan Yanliang saw Liu Xi for the first time, he felt that this matter was extremely absurd.
This time, Linguo counterattacked from Yangzhou to Yizhou within three days with the momentum of a smashing bamboo. Both the offensive and the deterrent power have exceeded everyone's imagination.
It was as if the 17 people encircling and suppressing the city did not exist.
For the sake of the overall situation and to stabilize the situation, he must come forward and negotiate peace.
——This has nothing to do with Tang Yiyunqi and his ilk.
Although they did suggest this, Wan Yanliang also understands that after the 20 years of turmoil in the Kingdom of Jin, what is more needed is to stabilize order and rebuild.
Because of this, when Lin Guo sent someone to ask Jin Guo for his opinion, he himself couldn't sit still.
The people of Linguo behaved innocently and justly——
From their point of view, the mob came from multiple directions and wanted to destroy the city. After the anti-killing, they cleaned up the source of the riot, took the city that was agreed to be given to them before, and stopped at Yi Zhou, I want to talk to the people from the Kingdom of Jin again.
Wan Yanyong brought a group of ministers and the two Linguo people there, he did not forget to put on a majestic and dignified appearance, no matter what, he wanted to find a place in front of the Linguo people.
Before he walked into the central hall, he had countless ideas about Liu Xi in his mind.
The country ruled by this person has countless rare and exotic beasts, and he can manipulate the dragon, fire, and even thunderbolt, so he should be a fairy-like figure no matter what.
What's more, he was in charge of defending the city, and when the defense was stable, he directly sent generals to attack Sizhou in the north. On the same day, he took Sizhou, one of the main sources of income of the Song Dynasty.
But the moment he walked in, he saw a thin and pale young man.
Due to staying up late and staying up all night, Liu Xi's complexion was not very good.
Although Li Luan and Sun Ci both proposed to put some BB cream on him and put on some lipstick, they were still rejected by Liu Yuanshou.
From Wan Yanyong's point of view, the young man had his hair cut short, wearing tight and strange clothes, and he didn't have anything that looked expensive.
——He didn't understand the price of the watch on Liu Xi's wrist.
Then unexpectedly, before he could figure out how to speak, the young man walked down, smiled and shook hands with him.
Wan Yanyong was a little confused by the handshake.
What kind of etiquette is this...
Liu Xi didn't directly mention military and political matters to him, but instead asked him with a smile what kind of special snacks this Yizhou had, and he could bring some for the little ones at home later.
If you take it in another direction, just wait for Mr. Zhao to come and talk again.
Wan Yanyong was a little dizzy by his tricks, but only nodded slightly, following this person's topic.
The speed of Linguo's siege was so fast that it was monstrous.
Wan Yanyong listened to what his envoys were saying, and absent-mindedly thought about the war news from the scouts.
They seem to have a magic in their hands, called... Dynamite?
Whether it is a stone wall several feet high or a fortified barrier, as long as you ignite the so-called explosives, you can break into the city in an instant——
In that case, if they want to fight all the way to Tokyo or even go to Beijing, there will be no problem.
The city walls that need to be maintained for more than several years can be destroyed at will like tofu in front of that explosive, so what's the point of the things they worked so hard to build?
Zhao Gou came too slowly.
He didn't dare to ride in the car he bought before, so he came all the way here in a carriage.
Liu Xi ate and slept well these two days, and chatted with people like Wan Yanyong if he had nothing to do, so he just ordered his subordinates to keep an eye on Yun Qi and Tang Yi.
But the two of them didn't seem to be moving, they were as calm as outsiders.
It was not until the sixth day of occupying Yizhou that Zhao Gou finally arrived with his ministers.
By this time, Wan Yanyong had gotten used to Liu Xi's approachable and talkative attitude, and even vaguely felt that this was not a big deal——
The city of Yangzhou has not been defeated, the shame of the Three Kingdoms has not been torn apart, and the Lin Kingdom has occupied several cities, half of which belong to the Jin Kingdom and half belong to the Song Kingdom, is it almost enough?
As soon as Zhao Gou appeared in their field of vision, Liu Xi laughed.
"Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Zhao sit down." He glanced sideways at Wanyan Yong who was sitting next to him, clapped his hands, and ordered: "It's time to get down to business."
With the sound of applause, six people were escorted in front of them.
Wei Sheng, Sizhou prefect, Li Shi...
Almost all those involved in the Yangzhou Rebellion were arrested.
When Zhao Gou and Wan Yanyong saw the familiar courtiers, their eyes narrowed and they almost stood up.
Li Shi had already been silenced, he hesitated and couldn't speak at all.
Wan Yanyong originally thought that Liu Xi was a good stubble, but at this moment, he directly felt that he was thrown in the ice cellar, seeing his uncle being tied up, he felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles, but it was difficult to speak.
"The chaos in Yangzhou was naturally not intentional by the Jin and Song Dynasties. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Linguo to stop. Now we are still negotiating terms with the two countries, right?"
Liu Xun got up slowly, walked around the six people, and said calmly: "During the diplomatic phone call before, Mr. Zhao said that he couldn't control the rebels under him, and that the rebels in Sizhou were frequent, and the government could do nothing. "
"Then, I will help you solve these problems."
He raised his head, looked at the ashen-faced two people in the seat and smiled, "No need to praise, it's just a matter of little effort."
Qian Fan was most annoyed by this kind of grinding and haggling diplomatic occasions. He was too embarrassed to smoke directly when he was addicted to cigarettes, so he just sat next to him and drank cup after cup of tea.
"This--there must be some misunderstanding," Wan Yanyong never thought that Li Shi would fall into his hands. Before, his subordinates quietly inquired about the news but found nothing. Looking at his uncle now, he was very anxious: "Please invite Liu The head of state thinks twice."
"If I'm not mistaken, this Mr. Li Shi seems to be the prime minister and nobleman of the Kingdom of Jin before." Liu Xi lowered his eyes and said in a playful tone: "So, he led the army to attack Yangzhou, not intentionally to rebel and seek chaos, But Mr. Wanyan intentionally granted it?"
He paused, looked at the emperors of the Song and Jin kingdoms with a smile and said, "It's impossible. The emperors of the two countries deliberately destroyed the city of Yangzhou, so that Linguo would be overthrown."
Everyone knows he's playing dumb, everyone knows he's acting.
However, no one can say a word about it.
The Jin and Song Dynasties have lost nearly 20 soldiers and horses, while the casualties in Linguo are almost zero in comparison.
This is already a terrifying gap.
If the Three Kingdoms go to war, they will know what the result will be without fighting.
"Mr. Liu," Zhao Gou forced a smile and said, "What about the Three Kingdoms peace talks?"
"The cause of the Yangzhou Rebellion has not been resolved yet. What is Mr. Zhao anxious about?" Liu Xi blinked and said calmly, "You execute the traitor in front of me, and we will talk further."
He coughed, and Qian Fan next to him reacted, immediately got up and put down his teacup, and showed a list.
"There are also these participants and those in charge, who are naturally the instigators of the disaster." Liu Xi said slowly: "If there are too many people, we won't all be charged up, and please Jin and Song Dynasty to solve these troubles in front of us. That's good."
Since you can't catch it, people from Linguo will come and catch it.
I caught it and sent it to you, and solved it for you with my own hands.
As soon as Wei Sheng, Li Shi and others heard Liu Xi's words, they immediately began to struggle and howl, desperately trying to get out the gag, so as to find a way out for themselves.
Wei Sheng stared at Zhao Gou with both eyes, and his prayer was beyond words.
Is this the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty? At the beginning, he secretly sent someone to invite him to help out, saying that he wanted to take back Yangzhou to uphold the prestige of the Great Song Dynasty. Now the emperor refuses to take a second look at himself!
He, Wei Sheng, who spent his whole life in the army, was willing to throw his head and blood for the court, how could he be regarded as a criminal minister now-he was still beheaded and killed by the people of Song State!
When the news about Yue Fei reached his ears, although he sighed regretfully and felt worthless for that hero, he never imagined that this day would happen to him!
Wan Yanyong looked at his uncle, took a deep breath for a moment, and kept silent.
If he defended his uncle, it would mean that Jin Guo ordered this prime minister to send troops to the country. Then the forts stationed in Yizhou would go straight north, and it is very possible to take down Tokyo.
But... this is the uncle who watched him grow up.
"Why don't you take it back and interrogate it in detail?" Zhao Gou suggested without giving up: "What if General Qian arrests the wrong person?"
Liu Zi sat back in his original position, took a sip of tea and said, "No."
He was too lazy to make up any more reasons.
No way is no way.
Since Song Jin wanted to backstab, and since he turned against Lin Guo at the same time after signing the tripartite contract, he had to bear the corresponding price.
Since they didn't dare to openly become enemies with Lin Guo, and they still had to find an excuse to beautify their behavior when doing such a thing, then Liu Xi let them cover it up at will - but the bitter fruit will always be eaten by themselves.
"Moreover, it's today." Qian Fan yawned, and said openly: "The Lin army is stationed in Yizhou, and naturally it is also consuming engine oil, food and grass, and there will always be losses—don't delay."
"But... this..." The minister next to him tried to plead for the master: "The Song Dynasty came this time, and it didn't bring a criminal officer or anything..."
"The Kingdom of Jin can borrow it." Qian Fan propped his chin and said, "They killed for you, wouldn't you save your compatriots from killing each other?"
When Zhao Gou heard these words, he stood up immediately.
He has too many words that are stuffed in his heart, and he wants to yell out directly in front of Liu Xi——
Now that your Linguo is so powerful, why are you still fussing about this kind of thing!
Since you can defend Yangzhou City, why do you want to kill my siege army horses!
Since it is so easy for you to defeat the siege army, why are you so cautious that you want to go all the way to the north and make things worse!
What a kingdom of gods, what heavenly dragons, ghosts and birds, without any kindness and compassion, forced Zhao Gou to be in such a dilemma!
Liu Xi watched Zhao Gou stand up abruptly, looked up at him and said, "Mr. Zhao, what do you want to say?"
Zhao Gou's eyes were red, and all the blood was rushing to his brain, but when he saw the young eyes, his whole body turned cold.
He can't beat him now.
If they wanted to capture Lin'an City in Lin'an Kingdom, they would have no trouble at all, they were just waiting for a result.
"Mr. Liu...you are right."
Zhao Gou suppressed the resentment and violence in his heart, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Prime Minister Tang, fetch the imperial edict."
-
Before Wei Sheng died, his heart was cold.
What he doesn't know is that even if there is no change in time and space, even if there is no Linguo in history, his fate is to be betrayed and betrayed by the Huaidong Road appeasement envoy Liu Bao sent by the court, and finally die on the way back to Chuzhou.
In the old history, he was posthumously appointed as the governor of the Baoning Army by the imperial court, and a "Praise Loyalty Temple" was built for him in Zhenjiang, but people died like lights, and many things contained no matter how much resentment and resentment Anger doesn't make any sense anymore.
On the Yangzhou side, although news from Yizhou came back one after another, and the content of the peace talks was also being sent back to the Senate, it was not too important.
This is the first time for everyone in Linguo to face the war so intuitively.
Both Jiangyin and Yangzhou people have been forcing themselves to accept and digest this fact for more than half a month.
When the Jin soldiers attacked the city last year, all the military forces were concentrated outside the Iron Curtain in Beicheng.
Although the people in the city could hear the roars and vibrations, they couldn't imagine what happened.
All the people in the Senate and the army are bearing all this for the city and the common people.
But this time is different.
This time, Yangzhou was besieged on all sides, and tens of thousands of corpses were lying in front of Jiangyin City. Even the water in the city had to queue up to receive filtered and purified water.
It is said that someone even fished out the bones in the well, and had nightmares for several days because of this, and it was useless to invite a doctor.
This war was launched by Song and Jin, but everyone in Yangzhou had to bear the corresponding tragedy and consequences.
Li Luan was coordinating with the deputy minister of the Ministry of National Defense to deal with the follow-up duties of defending the city and cleaning up the battlefield, and he was very busy.
She wanted to find a way to get rid of those unknown things on the city wall, so much so that she even wanted to tear down the city wall and build a new one.
And the tens of thousands of corpses that have begun to rot in front of Jiangyin City Gate are by no means something that can be handled casually.
Digging pits and burning corpses, using forklifts and bulldozers to deal with the remnants outside the city, renovating and shaping the road surface, and a series of related things are very troublesome.
So much so that she was so busy that when Liu Xi and the others were about to return, she didn't realize Long Yue's existence.
where is she?
Is she okay?
Li Luan boasted that he was indifferent to life and death, and was even ready to die at any time. When facing the head and stumps hanging on the south gate, he felt sick.
After the change of time and space, she was completely without father or mother, and she had originally planned to live alone for the rest of her life.
That reckless and gentle girl always came to visit her in the Senate and brought her hot soup, porridge and snacks, which was always heart-warming.
After confirming that things were in an orderly state, Li Luan finally let go of the matter and handed it over to his subordinates. He grabbed the windbreaker and hurriedly put it on, and went out to find Long Yue who didn't know where he was going.
"She is in medical school." Long Mu said on the other side of the phone: "It seems that her mood is not stable."
"What about you?" Li Luan subconsciously said, "Are you okay?"
"I'm still looking at the sixth optimization plan for the Tesla electric coil..." Long Mu paused, and then said with some doubts: "If you're asking about the body, thank you, I'm fine."
Li Luan frowned, and drove directly to the medical school in Jiangyin City.
This place has completely become a new hospital.
Dozens of wounded were transferred here and received the best rescue and treatment from everyone in the hospital.
However, due to the long time in the past, the dozens of people who could be saved were basically lying down to recuperate, and those who could not be saved basically passed away.
This... is more like an inpatient department.
Li Luan hurriedly searched for two or three floors before seeing that familiar figure in the dispensing room.
Long Yue is almost 19 years old.
But 19 years old is still too young to face these.
She is eight years older than Long Yue, and now she can only say that she can barely live in her heart, so she is more worried about her.
"Li--sister Li?" Long Yue's hair was not messed up, and his eyes were slightly blue. He thought he hadn't slept well at all, so he forced a smile and said in a warm voice, "Is Sister Li here to get the medicine?"
"You lend me 15 minutes." Li Luan directly grabbed her wrist and led her to an empty classroom: "Since there is no rescue arrangement or operation, you can do it later if you have anything to do."
"Okay—okay." Long Yue followed her into the empty classroom a little blankly, and was still at a loss when he saw her take out a soft blanket from her bag: "Sister Li, what do you want to do?" .”
"Crisis psychological intervention." Li Luan took a deep breath and said, "Sit down and give me your hands."
Long Yue has always been very obedient in front of her. Now he sat with his legs crossed and let her hold his hands tightly, but he still said stiffly: "Why am I not feeling well, I'm really fine."
"What did you see?" Li Luan frowned and said, "I heard from them that during the days of the siege, you followed the medical team everywhere to give first aid."
Long Yue had never held her hands so solemnly before, the defense and fear in his heart were slowly dissipating, and his voice became much quieter unknowingly.
"……die."
I've seen...many people die.
They cried and struggled in front of me, even begging me to save their lives.
In all, I've seen 46 people die.
Li Luan sighed with complicated emotions, held her hands and said, "Let me guide you to do basic loving-kindness meditation."
"When I am not around in the future, when you feel fear, despair and guilt, you must follow this process to pull yourself back."
Long Yue stared at her blankly, and called out uneasily: "Sister Li..."
"Close your eyes."
Li Luan's voice was always a little hoarse because of smoking.
But now that night is approaching, the surrounding environment is also quiet and peaceful.
When her voice sounded again, there seemed to be a magical power that could calm people's hearts.
"Now, relax your mind and let me guide you to find your love and joy again."
"Empty your mind and begin to inhale quietly and exhale slowly."
The moment Long Yue's spirit relaxed, all the scenes of suffering and despair that he had witnessed in those few days began to surge up uncontrollably.
But Li Luan's palm was so warm that when she wanted to cry, she would not have the urge to run away.
"Inhale...exhale..."
"Feel your own presence, and what it's like to sit with you."
Those memories kept churning in her mind, and all the negative emotions were trying to control her heart, making her sink with them.
Long Yue closed his eyes, his body began to tremble uncontrollably, he clenched Li Luan's hands like a drowning person, forcing himself to continue to take a deep breath and find his own existence.
"Now, start using your own imagination and feel a circle of people standing around you."
Li Luan's voice was warm and soft, and continued to guide her to see the scene in her heart.
"And these people are the ones who care about you."
"Count, there are one, two, three..."
Long Yue closed her eyes, realizing that her tears began to fall uncontrollably, those twisted and deformed limbs were still flashing afterimages in front of her, but with Li Luan's counting lightly, she was gradually able to see blurred figures, Surrounding and protecting yourself.
"Let them surround you and bring you love and joy."
"Their feelings for you are not necessarily pure love."
"But the important thing is that these people have treated you kindly."
"They nourished you with love."
With his eyes closed, Long Yue saw his parents smiling, Long Mu standing beside him, Li Luan with firm eyes, and all her friends who were near or far.
They seemed to be really standing by their side, watching them silently, while the light and warmth spread quietly and became more and more real.
It started to rain drippingly outside the window, Li Luan's voice was still hoarse and warm.
In the past, when she was suffering and desperate, living in endless fear and guilt, it was Liu Xi who took her out like this.
Now, she can also lead others to regain inner peace and love.
"You can see everyone in your circle, and they can see you."
"Adjust to a suitable distance from them, you only need to slowly observe who they are."
Long Yue took a deep breath, tears still flowing, as if venting and releasing something.
Li Luan looked at her quietly, only holding her hands tightly, never letting go.
"Look each one of them in the eye and feel their kindness, their kindness, and their love."
"Try to accept these...bring this warm love back to your own heart."
At this moment, those impacts and cries in Long Yue's memory seemed to be separated from the outside, becoming blurred and difficult to identify.
The guilt and pain that made her restless these days seemed to be separated by a gentle barrier, and her restless heart began to calm down slowly.
Her hands have been cold for too long, but now they are slowly warming up.
Li Luan's guidance was still gentle and patient.
The entire meditation process took less than 10 minutes, but to Long Yue, it seemed like a whole century had passed.
She was unaware of the tears on her face and her trembling body.
Although her eyes are closed, she can see all the people who love her and protect her.
Even the untouchable parents smiled sincerely and gently.
"Now, say goodbye to everyone in the circle."
Li Luan realized that she was starting to panic again, so he only squeezed her hands reassuringly.
"Give them a hug, or bow to them."
No...don't, don't leave me.
Long Yue almost cried and choked, she didn't want to open her eyes at all, and she couldn't do without every warm existence in her mind.
The reality was so cold that she opened all her defenses and tried her best to avoid all the darkness and crying caused by this war.
"As you say goodbye to everyone, let them melt into a light, a warm light in your heart."
Li Luan's palm gently caressed her cheek, his tone was as warm as before.
"Long Yue, open your eyes after you say goodbye."
The two sat silently in the dark classroom, the sobbing gradually stopped.
When Long Yue opened his eyes, he saw Li Luan's shallow smile.
She still exists firmly and powerfully, and has never left herself.
Li Luan looked at the girl and suddenly thought of himself many years ago.
"Don't blame yourself, don't feel guilty, just do what you should do now, okay?"
"When I am not around, please live firmly and peacefully."
She took the tissue, wiped away the tears all over her face, and nodded slightly.
