Xiao Ye didn't sleep forever, he just fell asleep. He didn't sleep during the day, and he worked hard for most of the night. Who else wouldn't be sleepy?
As for injuries? It doesn't exist, not even a flesh wound.
The injured person was Xiao Chen. He was wearing silkworm clothes, but there were none on his legs and arms. Although he had deep internal strength and the magical body protection skills also played a role, he was still hit by many swords and guns. It was just that he was lucky. It was a minor injury, no bones or muscles were broken. After a simple bandage treatment, it was already full of life.
The brothers were all injured to varying degrees, but none of them died or fell behind. They all came back, which was equivalent to creating the history of surprise attacks!
It also achieved considerable results. After the post-war inspection, the most conservative estimate was that at least more than 2,000 Langya troops were killed. There were more than 700 corpses under the city alone, and dozens of prisoners were also captured.
Li Qiu was very angry about this. He didn't care about the result of the battle at all. If something happened to Xiao Chen, even if 20,000 people were killed in this battle, the gain would not be worth the loss!
When he came to visit the doctor in person, he scolded him as a prince. When no one was around, he complained a lot in the tone of a younger brother.
"To be honest, Brother Xiao, I don't care too much about your little brother's life and death, but you can't die now. Isn't this a scam? I will point at you in this war. If you die, what will I do? Make great achievements and return in triumph? You can't be too selfish as a person, you always have to think about others..."
Xiao Chen was very angry.
"After all, am I doing this for you? Our morale is obviously not very high now. Zhang Heng, Lin Feixiong and the White Dragon Guard are not of the same mind as us. They always suspect that we are harming them, so I must take the lead. Boost morale, and secondly, show them how to do it, it’s not just them who are risking their lives, but also us!"
"That's what I say, but it's just too risky!" Li Qiu said, "There are many ways to improve morale, and you don't have to risk your life like this. What I know is that your brother Xiao is extremely brave and is not afraid of life and death. I don't know. I thought you were careless and stupid!"
"Haha, you are wrong. Even if I am a fool, but the soldiers are not fools. They all know it in their hearts. As long as you take the lead, they will risk their lives for you. If you play tricks on them, They won’t believe you either. Although I took some risks in this battle, my morale will definitely be doubled!”
"Without you here, as the only coach, I would never do this unless absolutely necessary. But just because you are here, even if something goes wrong, the whole army will not be leaderless and the whole army will be defeated... Maybe you think I am doing this again I'm just playing tricks on you, but you have to admit that I'm very good at it, right?"
"So Brother Xiao, whether you are playing tricks or risking your life, what are you trying to do?" Li Qiu felt that he could not see through Xiao Chen more and more. You have already become famous all over the world and are seeking power. You control three counties and have millions of people under your command. You are seeking profit. You should have a lot of money, right?"
"What do you mean?" Xiao Chen was alert, "Are you trying to say that what I have in mind is too big?"
"If you say your plan is big, it doesn't seem to be true, because if you wanted to conquer the world, you wouldn't be here now, and you wouldn't risk your life at all!" Li Qiu said, "That's why I am very confused, little brother, what are you doing? What do you want to draw?"
"The lotus turns into fire and burns my broken body. How joyful is life, how painful is death. To do good and eliminate evil, only because of the light. Joy and sorrow all return to the dust. Have mercy on me, the world, there are so many sorrows..." Xiao Chen thought about it. A song, but it comes from the Demon Cult, "There are too many worries in the world, too many already."
"When I led the troops into Yanyun that year, do you know what I saw the most? They were dead people, all kinds of dead people, including old people, women, children, and infants who should have been with their parents. The baby sucking milk in your arms was abandoned in the wilderness to feed the wolves..."
"Also, when I was sending Concubine Liu back to Burma Province, I saw thousands of disaster victims dragging their children and leaving their homes. In order to have a bite to eat, they sold their wives and children, and even sold their children and daughters. Changing children and eating them... Haha, I only read about it in books in the past, but unexpectedly I can actually see it with my own eyes!"
"The root cause of all this is the endless war. Whether it is the rise of the Zhou Dynasty or the fall of the Han Dynasty, the unlucky people are the common people!" Xiao Chen took a deep breath, "Duan Fengnian rebelled. Regardless of success or failure, there will be thousands of Thousands of people died because of this! So the longer this war drags on, the more people will die..."
"So, Brother Xiao, you are desperate to take the offensive?" Li Qiu asked.
"Well, the sooner we defeat Duan Fengnian, the sooner the people of Langya County will be liberated. Otherwise, even if we regain Langya County in the future, we will still see devastation and corpses everywhere! Our own side is not much better, because of the war Over time, if we send more troops, increase taxes, and recruit civilians, many people will die."
"That's why, Brother Xiao, you mobilized the soldiers and horses of the Yanyun Army to help us." Li Qiu gradually felt that Xiao Chen might be serious.
"You just asked me what I wanted? What I want is peace in the world." Xiao Chen stared at Li Qiu, "Then what do you want?"
"I..." Li Qiu suddenly felt that his grand plan seemed to be worth mentioning in front of Xiao Chen.
Suddenly, he heard the continuous sound of horns ringing from the top of the city. This was the signal for the enemy to attack the city in large numbers. Li Qiu quickly got up and left, "Brother Xiao, just have a good rest. I will go to the city myself to direct the battle... …With Lin Yue, Zhang Heng, Fei Xiong and the others here, you don’t have to worry.”
"Well, Duan Fengnian must also be holding his breath. Today's siege battle will be fierce... Your Majesty, please be careful." Xiao Chen said.
After Li Qiu left in a hurry, Ouyang Yunxiu walked in with a bowl of medicinal soup and paused heavily on the table, "My meritorious minister, get up and take medicine!"
"Don't eat it, it's too bitter!" Xiao Chen shook his head repeatedly, "What kind of medicine did these idiots prepare? They don't even know how to add some honey and sugar to it. I will definitely criticize them seriously later."
"Actually, it's not bitter at all. Are you going to eat it or not? If you don't eat it, I'll pinch you!" Ouyang Yunxiu came over and sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out and pinching the soft flesh on his leg.
"Hey, hey, it hurts, it hurts, let go, you are trying to take advantage of my illness and kill me!" Xiao Chen grinned in pain and screamed.
"Hmph, people cut you with knives, stab you with guns, and shoot you with arrows, but you don't even cry out that it hurts, but it hurts when I pinch you lightly?" Ouyang Yunxiu knew he was pretending, but he stopped quickly.
"Mainly because of my heartache." Xiao Chen smiled.
"Where did you get this silkworm coat?" Ouyang Yunxiu asked casually.
"Isn't it Ling'er's?" Xiao Chen blinked and said.
"Really? Ling'er really loves you!" Ouyang Yunxiu seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Of course, my sister loves me the most... Duanmu Nanqiao gave it to me." Xiao Chen knew that he couldn't hide it from Yunxiu.
It felt like nothing could be hidden from her.
