sky.
Bright.
people.
woke up.
But for many people in the world, dawn is a painful thing, and they hope to never wake up.
Liu Wenjing is such a person.
She used to wish that the sky would light up early, because it meant she could go out and play again.
She was so happy riding her favorite little red horse, holding her favorite sword, across the endless grassland, hunting on horseback.
However, all of this was completely shattered that night, and the past was like a dream, remaining in her memory forever.
Nowadays, what she fears most is dawn.
The sun shone into the house and into her heart, and it was time for the dream to go.
Reality is coming!
She lay on the familiar bed, covering her eyes with her bare hands, trying to dispel the sunshine.
After a while, she finally took her hand away, revealing her slightly red and swollen face.
Even though this face was injured, it still couldn't hide her peerless appearance.
The originally bright eyes now contained only endless resentment and overwhelming murderous intent.
Xia people!
They are all those Xia people!
Since she survived, she will do nothing in this life and will do everything she can to destroy the Xia Kingdom.
At this moment, a familiar voice sounded in her ears: "Miss!"
Liu Wenjing immediately came back to her senses. When she saw the person clearly, she said in surprise: "Xiao Cui!"
I saw a girl standing in the room, eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing a light red skirt.
"Miss!"
Xiaocui's face was filled with joy, and she trotted to the bed and hugged Liu Wenjing who got up.
The master and the servant had narrowly escaped death, and when they saw each other again they burst into tears.
After a while, both the master and the servant's eyes were red and swollen from crying before they gave up.
Liu Wenjing stretched out her hand to comfort Xiao Cui and said, "Xiao Cui, what on earth is going on?"
What she wants to understand most now is the current situation. She still doesn't know the situation outside.
Are those Xia people still in the city?
Have General Zhenxi's reinforcements arrived?
Xiaocui wiped away her tears and said, "Miss, we are saved. The person who saved us is a young man named Wang. His subordinates call him General."
"General Wang?" Liu Wenjing frowned and couldn't think of who he was.
Although she was only a girl, she was Liu Xingze's daughter after all. She could understand the general affairs of the army by listening to Liu Xingze's nagging.
She knew that Zhenxi General Song Huchen had three Zhonglang generals, namely Jianwei Zhonglang General Zhu Bangguo, Fenwei Zhonglang General Fu Cheng, and her father Yangwei Zhonglang General Liu Xingze, but there was no general named Wang. .
"Isn't he under Uncle Song's command?" Liu Wenjing thought secretly.
Xiaocui said at this time: "Miss, General Wang has told Xiaocui that if you wake up, let me take you to see him."
Liu Wenjing let out a soft sigh, thinking that she wanted to see who this General Wang was.
At that moment, she quickly put on a purple skirt and fetched the sword she carried with her.
What surprised her was that she didn't feel any discomfort in her body at all, especially down there.
As a martial arts practitioner, she knew very well that she must have used some healing medicine, otherwise it would be impossible for her to not feel anything from such a serious injury.
"Is it also that General Wang?"
She secretly thought to herself that she couldn't wait to see him.
outside the house.
The red sun has passed over the treetops, and the sun shines on the earth, which is warm and a bit dazzling.
The courtyard has been swept clean, and the leftovers left by the summer residents last night have been cleared away.
Xiaocui led Liu Wenjing into the lobby.
I saw a young man dressed in black standing in the hall, with three other people standing in front of him.
One of them is the tall and handsome cavalry captain Zhang Han, and the other two are wearing the standard fish scale armor of the Army Sima, and they are Li Xu and Xu Yu, the Army Sima under his command.
Liu Wenjing and Xiaocui met several times and were discussing matters. They did not go in immediately and waited in front of the door.
"That person is General Wang?"
Liu Wenjing raised her head towards the young man in black. When Xiaocui nodded, she couldn't help but said: "You are so young!"
When Xiaocui told her before, she thought that General Wang, no matter how young he was, should be over thirty years old. Now that she saw the real person, her perception was overturned.
He is not in his thirties, he is clearly in his twenties. Such a young man is already a general. In recent years, I am afraid that the only one who used to be a hussar general is.
"Xu Yu, Li Xu, each of you will lead 600 people along the east-west street to check the damage from door to door. You must check carefully. When the inventory is completed, we will return the property to the people."
Wang Cheng then said to the two army commanders: "Remember, all families, whether they are victims or survivors, must be counted together!"
"yes!"
Li Xu and Xu Yu straightened up and accepted the order.
Wang Cheng then said to Captain Zhang Han of the Cavalry: "Captain Zhang, please count the casualties of our army as soon as possible. In addition, you can arrange for another hundred people to cut off all the heads of the Xia people and find a place outside the city. Build a "Beijing View"!"
"Building a "Beijing View"?"
Zhang Han was startled and said: "General, will this arouse Xia Guo's crazy revenge?"
The purpose of building the Jingguan was to show off martial arts, but for other countries, it was a huge shame.
The Zhou Dynasty and the Xia Kingdom had been at peace for more than ten years. Even in those years of unrest, no general built a capital, because this would probably lead to an endless war between the two countries.
"Hmph! Now that things have happened, do you think the two countries can still coexist peacefully?" Wang Cheng asked back.
Zhang Han was startled and thought, is the war about to begin?
In fact, he was not ready yet and subconsciously thought that this was just a friction on the border. After all, the two countries had similar conflicts before, but they were finally resolved through negotiations.
Wang Cheng did not explain anything, because many things were guessed by him. When the court officially issued the war order, his guesses might be wrong.
But there are various signs that the two countries will definitely go through a war. How can we decide the ownership of the territory without going through a war? How to eliminate the impact of the destruction of Yanzhou City and the destruction of Nanli County without going through a big war?
"Go!"
Wang Cheng waved his hand, and Zhang and Han stopped talking and all retreated.
When passing by the door, Zhang Han immediately noticed Liu Wenjing and his servant, and nodded.
Liu Wenjing bowed slightly. She had met Zhang Han several times and they knew each other.
After a few people walked away, she was about to ask Xiao Cui to step forward to make an announcement, when a voice rang in her ears.
"Everyone come in!"
Liu Wenjing then entered the lobby with Xiao Cui. When they came to Wang Cheng's side, they bowed and saluted: "My little lady Liu Wenjing has met General Wang."
"Miss Liu, there is no need to be polite!"
Wang Cheng raised his right hand, then clasped his fist and said, "I am Wang Cheng, formerly a lieutenant under General Jianwei Zhonglang, and temporarily acting as General Zhonglang. I will be responsible for all military affairs in Nanli County for the time being."
"It turns out to be General Wang!"
Liu Wenjing's crystal clear eyes lit up. She had also heard about Wang Cheng's name.
This is the most dazzling presence in the Western Army at present. He has only been in the army for a short time, but he has already made achievements that countless soldiers cannot achieve in their lifetime.
Her father Liu Xingze spoke of the other party with envy and admiration, highly affirming the other party, and even bluntly said that it would not take long for him to become a unique presence in the Western Army.
Now everything has come true, Wang Cheng actually received the post of Zhonglang General so quickly.
However, how ironic is it to think that his father served in the army for more than thirty years before becoming a general, and now he has ended up with his body and body missing?
Liu Wenjing burst into tears.
Wang Cheng was the least likely to see this, not to mention that the girl in front of him was only a fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old girl, who was still a junior high school kid in that world.
For a moment, he was a little at a loss. After a while, he said in a tone that he thought he was concerned about: "Is Miss Liu healed from her injuries?"
It's better not to mention this, but saying it will hit Liu Wenjing's sore spot.
Liu Wenjing burst into tears like spring water.
Wang Cheng felt heartbroken after watching it for a while. He knew what Liu Wenjing had suffered, and he also knew that it was an indelible pain, especially for a girl.
He really wanted to give himself a slap on the ear, and wanted to come forward to comfort him, but he was afraid of saying the wrong thing.
So he just stood there stupidly, saying it was not the case, and even not saying it was not the case.
After a while, Liu Wenjing wiped away her tears and pretended to be calm: "General Wang is just laughing."
Wang Cheng nodded, stopped talking casually, and then asked what he was most concerned about.
"I wonder what Ms. Liu's plans are for the future?"
The powerful general Liu Xingze had died in battle, and everything in Nanli County was taken over by Wang Cheng. This general's mansion, the military headquarters of Nanli County, naturally became Wang Cheng's office.
Then, it would be inappropriate for Liu Wenjing to stay here. Living alone with a man and a woman in the same room would easily arouse criticism. It would not be a good thing for either Liu Wenjing or Wang Cheng, especially Wang Cheng.
Just after someone's biological father died, you brought someone's daughter into your house. Is this what a human being would do?
If this matter reaches the ears of those ministers in the court who love to stir up trouble, Wang Cheng, the acting general, will stop working because his moral character is questionable.
Liu Wenjing lowered her eyebrows and said nothing, because she had never considered this matter before, and the change happened too suddenly.
"I heard that General Liu is from Kyoto. How about I arrange a few people to send Miss Liu home? What do you think?" Wang Cheng suggested.
Liu Wenjing suddenly changed her face and said: "No! I won't go back! Never!"
"Why?" Wang Cheng was puzzled.
Although this girl's father is gone, her mother is still there, and her family is still there, so why doesn't she want to go home?
Liu Wenjing gritted her teeth and said, "I want to avenge my father! I want to kill all the summer dogs!"
The ferocious tone made Wang Cheng feel a little horrified when he heard it, but he still said: "Don't worry, Miss Liu, I will take care of the revenge. None of the Xia people who massacred Nanli County this time will survive!"
"No! I want to kill those summer dogs with my own hands!" Liu Wenjing said stubbornly.
"Swords and swords have no eyes on the battlefield. It's not something a girl like you can get involved in. You'd better go back!"
