Chapter 814: Explore

Slaughter

This word flutters on the battle flag that has been changed.

Ye Jinnan felt so uncomfortable, so he simply took his eyes off the battle flag and stopped looking. Tu was still standing on the city wall and looking at the distance. He didn't know what he was thinking. Ye Jinnan retreated first on the excuse of being unwell. When he was down the city, he looked back at the flag fluttering in the wind, as if he saw the word Tu turned into a human face and still had a ferocious smile on his face.

When the big banner was on the word Luo, Ye Jinnan seemed to have never been so blocked.

Although Luo Yao is dead, at least it turns out that this flag can still evoke memories from many people. When people look at this flag, they will think of the glory of the past. But now when they look at this big banner with slaughter, everyone feels so strange. It seems that they have never belonged to this team and have never shed blood on this flag.

When he came down from the city wall, Ye Jinnan felt a little heavy. He told himself that maybe he was really caught in the wind, but he forgot that he hadn't been sick for many years.

He lives in an inconspicuous house in Liuzhou City. When he entered the city, he designated a large mansion for him but he refused. For some reason, he is increasingly disliked Zhang Yang. There is always an illusion that he will be pointed at when he appears in front of others, and his spine will always be chilled for a while.

In the past, when he was walking in the crowd wearing iron armor and riding a tall horse, he always felt the pride that a soldier should have. Whether it was when he was holding the banner of the left vanguard or the banner of the word Luo, this sense of pride had never disappeared. Now Ye Jinnan tried his best to pick up the pride again, but failed again and again.

Walking on the strange street of this strange city and watching the passers-by look at him with fear and disgust, Ye Jinnan suddenly wanted to cry.

His residence was in an inconspicuous alley. This house was originally a home of a sixth-rank lieutenant of the Liuzhou garrison. Coincidentally, the lieutenant died at the hands of Ye Jinnan, but Ye Jinnan was destined not to know this detail. The Liuzhou garrison was still wearing the flag of the Great Sui Dynasty. When the slaughtered the city, the soldiers of the defenders resisted extremely strongly. Unfortunately, this city, which was once marked as a strategic location on the map of the Great Sui Dynasty, had already changed things and people. The local wealthy families were unwilling to pay for the soldiers. Tonggu Academy sent people several times to order the recruitment of the Liuzhou garrison but was rejected.

When Ye Jinnan thought of the dead bodies on the city wall, he suddenly felt that the soldiers who had not received military pay for at least two or three years were much more proud than him. At least, the soldiers knew why they fought and died, and Ye Jinnan had already lost his way at this time.

Not only him, this army has also lost its direction.

Perhaps, at this time, only the person named Tu knew what he was going to do.

When he opened the gate of the courtyard, two disabled veterans rushed up to him, one led the horse away for him, and the other dusted off the floating soil on his body with a duster.

"General, why did you come back so early today?"

The veteran who lost his right arm asked with a smile, and he was only concerned about the grief in Ye Jinnan's eyes for Ye Jinnan. Speaking of which, there are only Ye Jinnan's men in the entire massacre army. When Jiangbei retreated, almost all the wounded soldiers were abandoned by the massacre.

Even if Luo Yao was cold-blooded, he had never made such a decision.

"There's nothing in the camp, so come back soon."

Ye Jinnan answered absent-mindedly, and then walked into the room.

"By the way, General, shortly after you went to Daying this morning, General Mu Li came once. I heard that you went back when you went to Daying. I remember that last time you mentioned that Mu Li kept asking for illness and recuperation, but today he looked like a patient, but the sad face between his eyebrows was too strong."

"I'm tired, go back and sleep for a while."

Ye Jinnan was not in the mood to speak, and he didn't want to ask what Mu Li was doing. He understood Mu Li's thoughts a long time ago.

At that time, only three of the ten masters of Romon were still alive. If it weren't for the Tu, there would be only him and Mu Li.

The most eye-catching people under Luo Yao's command were all killed in battle one after another. Zhan Yao, the leader of the ten great masters of Romon, died in Yongzhou. Ye Jinnan still doesn't know how Zhan Yao died. Wen Xiaodao, Duan Bianbao, Duan Bianxiong, Zhu Quan, Cui Lunhai, and the mysterious General Mo were all dead.

Ye Jinnan dreamed many times at night about the scene where ten of them rode behind Luo Yao on horseback, even Wen Xiaodao, whom he hated the most, seemed so friendly in his dream. The dream was too real, as clear as what happened yesterday. Every time there was the same picture in the dream, which could not be removed.

On the day of departure from Yongzhou, Luo Yao pointed his finger to the north while riding a war horse, and asked, "You know, what are we going to the north?"

No one dared to make random guesses, so he waited for Luo Yao to say.

Luo Yao pointed to the direction of Chang'an City and said, "I am greedy for secular power because if I am not greedy, I cannot give you benefits. Only when my rights are getting bigger and bigger can you get more and more. Then what do you think I can do to give you the most benefits?"

"Be the emperor!"

Duan Bianxiong, who was outspoken, shouted at the top of his voice, and Luo Yao laughed: "You are all my soldiers, I won't give you any benefits, who do I give to?"

This is what you say, this picture.

He appeared in Ye Jinnan's dream countless times.

He kicked off his boots and lay on the bed and looked at them without any sleepiness.

"General, General Muli is here again..."

Someone outside the door said softly, and then waited for his answer. Ye Jinnan frowned, not wanting to see Mu Li, but finally sat up and ordered: "Please go to the living room, I'll arrive later."

...

...

"This is my second time today."

Mu Li glanced at Ye Jinnan, then lowered his head to look at the water vapor coming from the hot tea in his hand. Ye Jinnan then realized that Mu Li seemed so old. You should know that Mu Li was a famous handsome man among the left vanguard generals and a famous Confucian general. This man was originally a scholar, and his every move was full of books, but when he arrived at the battlefield, he was cold and direct. Luo Yao once said that he had the wind of Li Xiao.

But now, Mu Li's temples were covered with white hair.

"I know I can't persuade you."

Mu Li lowered his head, his tone a little desolate: "You have obsession in your heart, and you have been forcing yourself to see the current team of the generals. You are afraid that once you deny the obsession you are cautiously guarding, you will never be able to return to the past, but... in fact, you have long been unable to return to the past."

Mu Li took a sip of tea: "I wanted to persuade you before because I didn't give up on this team, and I still wanted to go back to the past. I didn't come to persuade you today, but because I had given up."

He glanced at Ye Jinnan: "I'm here to say goodbye to you, I'm leaving."

"Walk?!"

Ye Jinnan suddenly turned his head to look at Mu Li: "Where are you going?"

"It doesn't matter where I go, what's important is that I no longer have the intention to stay here."

The water vapor wet Mu Li's eyes, and his head lowered: "Actually, since the day Duan Bianbao was plotted to die, I thought about leaving. He was determined to avenge Duan Bianxiong, but he was sent to the grave like a fool. It was so damn worth it... But I couldn't let it go, and I always felt that this was still the general's team. If I left, how could I be worthy of the general's cultivation trust for so many years?"

"Now, the word Luo on the banner is gone."

Mu Li paused for a moment, shook his head and smiled: "Do you remember when the ten of us followed the general out of Yongzhou? I dreamed of that scene countless times..."

Ye Jinnan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"It will always get better. If you leave like this, what should your subordinates do? There are many old brothers who have been with you for many years. If you leave like this, who will care?"

"This is also my purpose today."

Mu Li raised his head and looked at Ye Jinnan and said solemnly: "If you still recognize me as a brother, do me a favor... Your subordinates will be on duty tomorrow. I plan to take them away with me by using the excuse of going out of the city to train. As long as you help me delay for an hour, it only takes an hour."

"I……"

Ye Jinnan wanted to speak but stopped, but finally sighed silently.

"Things are different."

Mu Li stood up and prepared to say goodbye: "Actually, I thought before coming that if I told you the truth, then it is possible that tomorrow morning will be the death date for my veterans and I. I know you, but I still don't want to lie to you. In fact, if I don't say it, no one will doubt it when I go out of the city to train tomorrow. I just want to tell you... Jinnan, is this team, this team with the banner of slaughtering, worthy of your support?"

Ye Jinnan shook his head: "You go, I just pretend you have never been here."

Mu Li smiled bitterly and turned around and walked out the door.

"Let's go west. If you are lucky and can bypass the battlefield between Yang Jian and Tonggu Academy, go back to the southwest. Although I don't know Fang Jie very well, I believe he is a person who can take you in. In the least, you can go home... I heard that Fang Jie distributed the fields to the people in the southwest, and the people's lives are very good. If you don't want to hold the knife again after you go back, you should be able to change a hoe..."

Ye Jinnan said as he looked at Mu Li's back.

"go home?"

Mu Li smiled sadly: "The home has long been gone..."

...

...

Outside Liuzhou City

Several people lying in the grass looked at the flag on the city wall. The leader's eyes flashed for a moment, and then became relieved: "After following it for so long, I finally knew who the firearms fell into..."

He turned over and lay down, his clothes were covered in dust.

"We followed Muping all the way to this place, and finally we knew who was trading with foreigners. I thought it was the people from Mu's house who were preparing to join the game, but it turned out that we had nothing to do with the people from Mu's house."

A young man said.

“Not necessarily.”

The man, known as Tuansu, rubbed his wrinkled corners of his eyes and said, "After this, our work is basically done. What we need to do now is to send the news back as soon as possible to let the lord know. The thing worth being happy is that we are not too far from the southwest, and most of the journey has come here unknowingly. Xiao Duzi, you two, you two, hurry back, I will take the people to stay."

The young man named Xiao Duzi was puzzled: "I have figured out, why don't the group leader go together?"

"Can't leave."

The man, known as the troupe leader, shook his head: "I always feel that there will be more gains to stay. The value of our existence in Knight School is to inquire about the news for the lord. Now when you encounter such a big thing, if you withdraw it hastily, I am unwilling to accept it. You should go now, and if you can contact our people along the way, let them support me."
