"Okay, I promise you!"
Of course Nie Chen knew what the master's words meant.
This flag is the White Dragon Flag, the Gale Flag, and the symbol of the Wind Country.
Don't let this flag fall into his hands. It doesn't mean that the battle will be lost on the battlefield and the flag will fall.
But don't let all the gale flags fall down, don't let the Feng Kingdom... perish in his hands.
The boss knew that Nie Chen was too ambitious and had no thoughts of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. He only had his own interests in mind, so before he died, he left a last word to him.
Don't let him go down a path of self-destruction.
As the leader said, a person who only has interests in his eyes will also have his subordinates who only have interests in their eyes.
A selfish person will also be selfish. Such a force will inevitably be destroyed, and Nie Chen will eventually be destroyed.
Don't let the Gale Flag fall into his hands, because you want him to save the country, but don't let him usurp it.
This is an elder's last love for the younger generation.
The boss was so angry that he seemed to be about to close his eyes in the next second.
He looked at Da Zhuang with difficulty and said,
"Good boy... I have been with you for so many years... I can't help you... From now on, you must do your best to... assist Nie Chen and protect him... Just like you protect me, be loyal to him...
Your wife and children...bring them back...don't let them be bullied in their hometown...without men..."
The headmaster's eyes slowly closed, and there was no longer any breath.
"father!!!"
Weng Qiuchan cried miserably.
There was a cry in the house.
This general who had been fighting for many years, this kind elder, before he died, he was still thinking about his children and the family affairs of his subordinates...
"General Weng! Have a good trip!"
Lin Guang gritted his teeth and said.
"Master, have a good journey. My old horse, I only regret that I took refuge in you too late..."
The tough guy shed tears.
"The general is traveling far away. We will do our best to assist Master Nie in resisting the enemy and protecting our family and country!"
Wang Hao put his right fist on his chest and performed the highest military salute.
Nie Chen burst into tears. He was extremely reluctant to leave. He couldn't bear that the master would leave like this.
He had great hope in his heart that this elder could stand up and tell him how to fight, how to command troops and horses, and how to lead an army to charge.
In the past, no matter what he did, he could let go of his hands and feet, because even if the sky fell, there would still be a big boss to hold him up.
From now on, he will make his own decisions and be responsible for everything, no matter how big or small it is.
On his shoulders, he carries the responsibility of thousands of soldiers and the safety of the people in the county.
He had only been up the mountain for more than two months, but it seemed like he had experienced two or twenty years.
That night, Wang Hao went to defend the city and arrange troops, and Qi Huan went to investigate for information. Lin Guang and Ma Niubai kicked open the door of the coffin shop and bought the best and heaviest coffin.
Nie Chen and Weng Qiuchan personally put on clean clothes for the headmaster, sewed the armor, dressed the headmaster, and put them in the coffin.
This is a general who died on the battlefield wrapped in horse leather. After his death, he had to wear armor to see his old brothers who had died in battle.
It will be bright soon.
News of the boss's death spread throughout the city.
Nie Chen did not disturb the people and did not order the whole city to be deserted. However, many people in the city rushed to the streets, hung white flags and pulled white cloths to bid farewell to the souls of the dead, for this general who killed corrupt officials, punished big households, suppressed bandits, and allowed the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Send off.
Inside the county government office, it was all white. Nie Chen and Weng Qiuchan knelt in front of the coffin, keeping vigil for the head of the family.
They and Da Zhuang, wearing white cloth on their heads and mourning clothes, silently burned the white paper in the shape of copper coins.
At this moment, Lin Guang walked in and said to Nie Chen,
"Lord, the county guard's army has gathered in the south of the city."
Upon hearing this, Nie Chen stood up, turned around and walked out.
Weng Qiuchan and Da Zhuang immediately followed.
Regarding the title of Nie Chen, Lin Guang, Wang Hao, Ma Niubai and Qi Huan discussed it last night.
Now that the first master is dead, it is no longer appropriate to call Nie Chen the second master. But to call Nie Chen the first master, I am afraid that Nie Chen will not be willing to do so. After all, calling him the first master just after the first master has left is a transgression. It's suspicious and easy to get confused.
After all, they are no longer bandits.
But Nie Chen didn't have an official status or title, so they couldn't call him lord or lord. In the end, they decided to call him lord.
After all, there are many powerful leaders and important figures who have retainers and generals, and they all call them lord. This also appears to be cordial and loyal.
Nie Chen was not in the mood to care about this. He put on his armor, tied a white cloth on his helmet, and rushed to the south gate with Weng Qiuchan and Da Zhuang in light armor.
The open space outside the south of the city was dotted with camps. More than 10,000 troops gathered outside the city and marched in formation.
On the top of the city, there was a strong wind flag.
Below the city, there are also strong wind flags.
It looks extremely weird.
After walking out of the range of the Pojun Crossbow, the county guard Liu Hu stopped. He had a white cloth hanging around his neck and his arms. He looked up at Nie Chen on the top of the city, and then smiled and said,
"Nie Chen! Why is there still a white cloth covering your head? Why, is Weng Huan dead?"
"Why don't you say anything? I'm laughing so hard. That idiot Weng Huan killed my officers and soldiers and took my city, but he even imagined that I would fight alongside him.
I used a little trick to kill him off his horse! "
"Nie Chen, I also know that you are a smart person. Now that you are surrounded by my Dafeng national flag, it shows that you still have the country in your heart.
I will give you a chance to surrender quickly and return the county seat, and I will spare your life.
Otherwise, after the city is broken, you will not be left alone! "
"You are a native of our Qingshui County. You should understand my character and show no mercy to the enemy. If you continue to resist, Weng Huan's fate will be a lesson to you!"
Nie Chen's eyes were cold and he stared at Liu Hu expressionlessly.
He also wanted to go out and kill Liu Hu, but he knew that with the current military strength of the county, he could not compete with Liu Hu.
He also knew that Liu Hu was not confident in taking the city, so he deliberately provoked the general to let him go out and fight.
There were 8,500 soldiers and horses in front of Qingfeng Village.
Five hundred people stayed in Qingfeng Village, and eight thousand people came to attack the county town.
After a fierce battle.
Only 500 of the 1,500 cavalry were left, and only more than 5,000 of the 6,500 infantry were left.
With this small force, it is difficult to compete head-on with the enemy's 15,000 elite troops.
The only thing that can be done now is to rely on the city wall to resist the enemy's attack.
It would be refreshing to lead the troops out and defeat them all, but after that, everyone would die, and the boss would not even be able to bury them in his coffin.
Except for the horses and cattle, few of the generals on the city are impulsive. They know that these few soldiers and horses are the last remaining assets of Qingfeng Village, and they cannot afford it.
Although there were only fifteen thousand people on the opposite side, there were hundreds of thousands of King Anton's troops behind them.
They only have this little wealth. If the other party loses, they can come back again.
The situation seems to have deteriorated very much.
