Dark clouds overwhelmed the city, and the sky and the earth were cold. Li Wuding led three thousand elite soldiers to crawl in the snow near the Nanyan Kingdom Tunliang.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the Nanyan State camp, and the soldiers ran westward holding torches. Li Wuding seized the opportunity and quickly sneaked into the camp with his team.

The infiltration was too smooth, but it made Li Wuding restless. Seeing that the Nanyan State Tunnel was close at hand, the surroundings were silent.

"General?" The soldiers were all waiting for Li Wuding's order.

Li Wuding's breathing became more and more rapid. He looked around, only to see darkness, and he could hear a needle falling. Suddenly, there was a flash of fire in the distance. Li Wuding's eyes shrank suddenly, and he shouted hoarsely: "Withdraw!!!"

But it was too late, the team led by Li Wuding was surrounded by the soldiers of Nanyan Kingdom who had already ambushed here!

In an instant, the shouts of fighting resounded high in the sky, as if they were about to tear apart the dark sky!

Li Wuding was not flustered, he raised his knife to fend off the enemy, he gritted his teeth hard, almost smashing them into pieces, inspired by him, the soldiers of the Northern Kingdom who were originally in chaos gradually calmed down and tried to break out from the encirclement!

But this is the base camp of the Southern Yan Kingdom after all, the enemy is outnumbered, after several fights, the soldiers of the Northern Kingdom fell down one by one, their bodies were dazzled with bloody red, making their eyes glaring.

Xue Yan shouted in a deep voice: "General Li, don't struggle, surrender will save your life."

As soon as the words fell, Li Wuding suddenly led his troops to give up breaking through the siege, and turned around to kill the granary. When approaching the granary, there were no more than a hundred soldiers from the Northern Kingdom.Outside the granary, there are tens of thousands of enemy troops from the Nanyan Kingdom.

"General Xue, the remnants of the Northern Kingdom have fled into the granary. Should we break through quickly to prevent them from burning the granary?" The subordinates came to report to Xue Yan.

Xue Yan shook his head: "No need, they are already in the urn, if they light the granary now, are they going to burn themselves alive in it?"

As he said that, Xue Yan walked over unhurriedly, and negotiated loudly outside the granary: "Xue has heard about General Li's name for a long time, and he doesn't want to meet General Li in arms. The people are living in dire straits, this kind of country is not worthy of your all-out protection, the general, why not surrender to the Nanyan Kingdom and save the common people together? The Nanyan Kingdom will definitely not treat the general badly if they can be appointed by talents.”

"General Lee..."

In the granary, Li Wuding slowly wiped off the blood on his face. When he heard the lieutenant call to himself in a trembling voice, he raised his head and looked around. A dozen soldiers of the Northern Kingdom with varying degrees of injury supported each other, all of them pale and full of blood. The face is full of despair knowing that the situation is over.

"General, we have no way out," the lieutenant said again.

The lieutenant's voice was like a cold dagger, and every word he uttered pierced Li Wuding's heart.

Li Wuding said nothing, he stood and looked up, his expression was like a broken flag in the strong wind, so desolate and unwilling.Outside the granary door, Xue Yan's voice of persuasion reached Li Wuding's ears, like poisonous wine brewed from honey, it was a desire for life and a curse for loyalty.

In the granary, the eyes of all the soldiers fell on Li Wuding. He was under a heavy burden. He took a deep breath, but he couldn't breathe. He raised his head and asked, "You guys, do you want to live?"

There was no sound, no one answered, and everyone bowed their heads in silence.

They thought, who doesn't want to live?Who wouldn't want to be born in a peaceful world with a complete family?They are all young soldiers,

It is the years of prosperity, who has never had a dream of all-powerful, who has not thought about a happy and healthy future?

It seemed that a long hundred years had passed, and the lieutenant who called Li Wuding before finally took action. He slowly stood up and moved towards the door of the granary step by step.

Li Wuding looked at him without saying a word and didn't stop him.

The lieutenant had a knife wound on his left leg, and he staggered every step he took. The blood dripped down his calf to the ground, and the blood snaked to the door of the granary. reach out.

Li Wuding's originally emotionless eyes gradually widened.

The deputy general didn't open the door!He took out Huozhe from his arms!

The lieutenant turned around and bared his teeth with a smile. He looked like he was only 19 years old, and there was even a hint of greenness in his smile. He lit the fire and hummed a song.

It was a folk song from the northern kingdom, singing about prosperity and peace. When the soldiers held events, they would often sing together around the bonfire.

Gradually, all the other soldiers in the granary sang along, and the singing slowly overwhelmed Xue Yan's voice outside urging them to surrender.

Accompanied by the singing, Li Wuding saw General Sun telling him that the king of the Northern Kingdom was trying to become a good king. He saw Xiao Yu'an in the court punishing treacherous officials for the people who were in disaster. He also saw Xie Chun under the crescent moon. Laughing wantonly at him with a wine glass, the young man said: General Li, through the ages, I will share weal and woe with the Northern Kingdom!

Li Wuding looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, and sang loudly with the soldiers, tears welled up in his eyes as he sang.

Billowing black smoke came out of the granary, Xue Yan was horrified, and hurriedly called for water to put out the fire.The singing of northern folk songs gradually disappeared in the raging fire, and the flames soared into the sky. What burned were the bodies, bones, and no regrets and loyalty of the soldiers of the Northern Kingdom.

The wind and snow howled, as if to bury the rise and fall of the country and the bones of heroes.

The folk songs of the Northern Kingdom gradually floated from the military camps of the Southern Yan Kingdom to the sky, singing to disperse the black clouds, and the song stopped when the snow fell, but a hundred miles away, the reinforcements led by Xie Chungui rushed to the border town with the urgent delivery of military rations, the fire and the morning light shone together. Looking ahead, Xie Chungui narrowed his eyes and saw the outline of the border town not far away.

Some soldiers said to Xie Chungui: "Deputy General Xie! Look, the snow has stopped and the food has been delivered. After you join General Li, we will be able to keep Nanyan Kingdom out of the frontier!"

Xie Chungui's eyes were bright, it was the expectation of being able to fight on the battlefield with Li Wuding.

Probably because of the better weather, the soldiers who delivered the food were in high spirits, and suddenly they sang the folk songs of the Northern Kingdom loudly, singing about the prosperity and peace of the Northern Kingdom, and the singing sent Xie Chungui all the way to the outside of the border city.

Xie Chungui smiled and shouted outside the city: "General Li, we have brought the food! Open the city gate!"

Accompanied by the singing, the heavy city gate slowly opened, and Xie Chungui's smile gradually froze on his face.

Life is impermanent, and it is only a few hours apart before and after, but it is only a few hours.

If Xie Chungui had been delivered a few hours earlier, maybe Li Wuding would not have robbed the food.

But there are no ifs in this world, only a faint exclamation in the history books and someone's remorse and weeping.
