Xu Xiu was wearing a monk's robe. There was no reaction and he was still chanting! Jiang Ping took a deep breath and continued, "To be honest, I didn't want to disturb you, but reality forced me to come to you!" "I know that too many things have happened recently, and it is difficult for you to do so at the moment. Accept it. But I believe you can cheer up if you are willing!"
Finding that Xu Xiu still ignored him, Jiang Ping expressed his helplessness, "Since you completely let go of Jinxiu, Jinxiu has become a mess! The various group armies formed gangs and plundered! Land is king! There is constant friction between each other!"
"Foreign enemies invaded, wantonly annexed Fairview land, and plundered Fairview resources!"
"Under such a national crisis! Instead of unanimously communicating with the outside world, the generals of all parties have repeatedly made concessions in order to preserve their own strength and tried every means to avoid direct confrontation with foreign enemies! What's worse, they have even directly collaborated with foreign enemies!"
"The old group of people have almost left. The new wave of people who are taking advantage of this opportunity are all illegal and barbaric people! They are not on the same page as our thoughts! This group of people has no sense of responsibility! For them, Said that the survival of the country is not important, what is important is their own interests!"
"Now Jinxiu has become a piece of loose sand! If no one who can control the situation comes out to take charge, then the whole Jinxiu will be destroyed! Little City Lord, that is the foundation of your Xu family, and Jinxiu was raised by you. My child. You can’t stand idly by like this anymore! Little City Lord, come out!”
Deeply in love, Jiang Ping, who was already a young man, burst into tears! It can be seen that he really loves Jinxiu!
Facing Jiang Ping like this, Xu Xiu remained silent, as if Jiang Ping had never come before him from beginning to end! After chanting sutras and reciting Buddha's name, he stood up slowly, bowed slightly to Jiang Ping, turned around and went to the dining hall. The food was simple and simple, without any fishy taste. Xu Xiu ate very deliciously! Jiang Ping was still extremely unwilling, and he chased him to the canteen again.
"Many of the hearts and minds of Jinxiu's military and people are still with you! As long as you show up now, you can definitely calm down the trouble! At least we veterans will definitely stand up and support you! The rest don't dare to do anything!"
"But if you don't show up now and let those people develop wildly! One group of people will change another group of people. Over time, many ideas will be deeply ingrained. Then it will be too late for you to go back! Little City Lord! Please! "
Xu Xiu's eyes were dull and empty. He slowly stood up, picked up the broom, and started cleaning the temple courtyard! Jiang Ping was obviously a little excited. He rushed directly to Xu Xiu, grabbed the broom in Xu Xiu's hand, and folded it into two pieces. "A Xiu! You can't go on like this! You have to cheer up! Only you! Only you can Save Jinxiu!”
"You are our only belief and support! If you are like this, what do you want us to do?"
"We can't let those newcomers gain a foothold, and we can't let those forces reach a consensus! There's no time!"
Xu Xiu picked up the broom again and began to clean the courtyard carefully. Jiang Ping's eyes were blood red. Seeing Xu Xiu's behavior, his eyes were full of hope. After a moment, he knelt directly on the ground, "A Xiu, you just think that I am so many years older than you and have been with you for so many years." Come on! Get out of the mountain! Even if you really don’t want to sit in this position, you should take advantage of this moment to bring this mess to life and give everyone a clear instruction so that everyone can communicate it unanimously! Then bring your son back ! It’s okay to let us old people assist your son! At least Jinxiu is still there! It’s really too late! Ah Xiu, Ah Xiu! I beg you! My little city lord!”
When Xu Xiu mentioned his son, he frowned slightly and finally had a reaction, but soon became depressed. He continued to clean the yard. Jiang Ping just knelt here and said nothing. Watching Xu Xiu finish cleaning the yard and return to the room. Jiang Ping remained motionless, and the guards followed him in, full of distress. He tried to persuade his commander, but to no avail! In the end, I could only stay on one side honestly!
As night fell slowly, Pu Sheng came to Jiang Ping's side and said, "Commander Jiang, please give me some advice. Stop trying to persuade me. Go back!"
"Master Pu, if the brocade disappears, will this temple of yours still exist?" "There is a destiny in the dark!"
"You are also a member of Jinxiu. Don't you have the responsibility to persuade the little city lord to go back?" "Do you think you haven't persuaded him?"
Pu Sheng sighed, "If you think carefully about what happened to him during this period, not to mention the deaths of Guo Pixiu and Yu Xin when they were young, just sacrificing his wife and killing his father, is this something that ordinary people can resist? He My heart is really dead, it’s useless.”
"If you don't believe it, just kneel down from here!" After saying this, Pu Sheng turned and left! Jiang Ping stopped talking and slowly closed his eyes. The security guard stood guard on one side, his face full of helplessness!
Inside the house, Xu Xiu was lying on the bed, seemingly asleep, but in fact he couldn't sleep at all! I don’t know how long it took, but several shouts came from outside the door: "God will die for the Jinxiu! God will die for the Jinxiu! God will die for my Jinxiu!" and a gunshot sounded.
"Commander!" The heartbreaking roar spread throughout the small courtyard, and Xu Xiu couldn't help but tremble. Before long, two lines of tears fell from the corners of his eyes, but from beginning to end, he remained Not moving at all...
At noon the next day, in Xiucheng, several Jinxiu veterans gathered at the home of Feng Ji, commander-in-chief of the Eighth Army. "Everyone must have heard about Jiang Ping!" "Hey, it seems that the little city lord is unlikely to come out!" "That's right, so we have to make plans for our own future! I want to hear it , what do you all think?"
"I think, to be on the safe side, we should form a group first! Then grab as much territory as possible!"
"Let's get together, who will be in charge?" "Is it you, or me? Or is it someone else here?"
"We can not discuss these things first, and find ways to stabilize the situation first!" "A country cannot be without a king for a day, and it is impossible without discussion!" "Then I suggest that we use the electoral system, and the minority obeys the majority! Or, in other words, everyone directly recommends Come up with a suitable person in charge!" While several people were discussing, a commander slowly stood up.
"Sorry, everyone, the national crisis is approaching. I don't want to discuss this with you. I want to take my people to the front line to resist foreign enemies! This is my mission and my responsibility! Finally, I wish you all the best! "
The commander's words were full of sarcasm, and he turned around and left! Several other commanders in the room looked at each other, nodded, and stood up in unison, "I wish you all the best, and we are leaving!" Soon, there were not many people left in the room. Feng Ji took a deep breath and looked at the remaining people, "Is there anything wrong with what I said?..."
In Splendid Town, in an inconspicuous farmyard, a dozen middle-aged men sat around and were eating.
These are the military generals who followed Xu Youzhi and Yu Xin during the civil war. They are in two groups with Feng Ji and others.
The eldest and most prestigious among them is named Ma Jitao. The Jinxiu Second Group Army he holds is also one of the most elite group armies in the entire Jinxiu! "Have you heard? Jiang Ping committed suicide in Jinxiu Temple!" "I heard! It is said that he went to find the little city lord to come out, but then the little city lord refused and was forced to commit suicide!" "What are you doing now? See this matter?" "Isn't it obvious? The little city lord will definitely not come out, and he will definitely not take care of Jinxiu anymore!" "Actually, it's a good thing that he doesn't care. If he wants to take care of it, then he will It's a troublesome thing. After all, we were all standing behind Commander Yu and the old city lord!" "Having said that, we are all for Jinxiu. Who can know so many things here?" " Is the process important? He can even use his wife as a shield, and he can even kill his own father. What else can't he do? So, if he really stands up to take charge of the overall situation, everyone here, Including me, no one can get better! Do you believe it?" Everyone immediately became speechless and looked at each other, "What should we do?"
"This is the reason why I called everyone here today!" Ma Jitao took a deep breath. "Today's Jinxiu is in turmoil, with internal and external troubles, and it has reached the point of life and death! As Jinxiu soldiers, we have the responsibility and obligation to stand up and stabilize everything. ! The reason why there are only a few of us and no one else is because we are different from them. We are people standing in the same boat, so if we cannot seize this opportunity to stand up and control our destiny in our own hands Go ahead, it’s not certain whether the second half of your life will be glorious and endless, or whether you will sink to the bottom, or whether you can survive! I wonder if you all agree with what I said? "
Many officers looked at each other and nodded, "Commander Ma is right! Internal and external troubles are too dangerous!"
"So, we must unite at this time and speak to the outside world as one. Of course, what I mean by speaking to the outside world is not just Moro Yingfeng, Xu Daliang and Yu Waterfall, but everyone except us! Take charge of the brocade! "
"Commander Ma is right. In our current situation, if we act alone, we will not be able to deal with Moro and Yu Waterfall, or even Feng Ji's people! So we need to unite and be monolithic. Only in this way can we Really standing strong!" "I also agree with what Commander Ma said, but the problem is that a country cannot be without a king for a day, and a family cannot be without an owner for a day. There are so many of us, who is in charge?"
"This is a simple matter. Let's hold a vote and whoever everyone chooses will be the one chosen. What do you think?"
"What about the people participating in the election?" "The commander-in-chief of our three group armies and the commander-in-chief of our three special forces!"
"Then there are six people, what if there is a tie?" "So we need one more person to ensure there is no tie!"
"That person must be someone that everyone can believe in!"
