755 Chapter 754-General’s benevolence
Outside of Jin Ling city, there were banners, war horses, siege chariots, scaling ladders, and bridges everywhere. The song Dynasty Army had surrounded the entire Jin Ling city.
The Emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Li Yu, and a group of ministers stood on the City Tower, looking at the well-organized military formation and the high-spirited song Army outside the city. They all turned pale. Some of them even trembled when they saw the Army outside the city. Since ancient times, this was a time when the country was in ruins and heads were rolling on the ground. How could people not be afraid?
Compared to the song Army outside the city, who was eager to fight, the people inside the city were in a panic. Even the soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty standing on the city wall looked tense. If they lost the vast territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty, how could they defend the city?
isn’t the song Army’s Kasaya ready? why hasn’t there been any movement in the song Army’s camp these two days? ” Li Yun turned his head and asked a general beside him in a trembling voice.
As the Emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Li Yu had fair skin, long eyebrows, handsome eyes, and a thin figure. He looked gentle, sensitive, and delicate, with a scholarly air. He looked indescribably good in the Dragon robe. However, in such a chaotic world, such a gentle and elegant Emperor was destined to be a tragedy.
The general who heard Li Yu’s question looked at the song Dynasty’s military camp and said, ” I don’t know what the song Army is up to. A few days ago, I heard that the song Army’s commander, Cao Bin, is sick. Perhaps this is the reason why the song Army has been quiet for the past two days. However, it is also possible that the song Army is playing some kind of trick!
This seemed to be an answer, but it was equivalent to saying nothing.
if I were to present Zhao Kuang with a form of apology, asking him to surrender and only leave Jinling, would the song Dynasty Army outside the city retreat? ” Li Yun glanced at the ministers around him with anticipation.
None of the officials could meet Li Yu’s gaze. They all automatically avoided his gaze and no one said a word.
Li Yu, the Emperor, lived a lowly life. When Li Yu ascended the throne and held the “Golden Phoenix imperial decree,” Zhao Kuangyan was furious when he heard the news. He blamed Li Yu for overstepping the emperor’s etiquette. In the end, Li Yu was so frightened that he personally wrote a letter to Zhao Kuangyan to ask for forgiveness. He begged for forgiveness, saying that “if I had slightly changed my mind, I would not have disobeyed the ancestors” laws, but would have been cursed by the gods.”
Ever since Li Yu ascended the throne, he had been living in Zhao Kuangyin’s shadow. Now that the song Army had already reached Jin Ling and surrounded it, how could Zhao Kuangyin stop? if the song Army broke through the city in the future, who knew how many heads would roll in the city?
The ministers on the city gate tower were all thinking about whether they could survive after the city fell. No one could answer Li Yu’s question.
Seeing that the officials were silent, Li Yu could only sigh. He ordered the generals guarding the city to pay close attention to the condition of the song Army’s commander and the movement of the Army. Then, he went down the City Tower worriedly and returned to the palace.
......
In the main tent of the song Army, Xia ping ‘an was lying on the bed with a military book in her hand. She was reading it calmly. Outside the main tent, a group of song army generals were like ants on a hot pan. They surrounded the main tent in a circle, waiting to come in and pay their respects.
Xia ping ‘an’s current identity was Cao Bin, the song Army’s Commander-in-Chief who destroyed the Southern Tang Dynasty.
After advancing to the nine suns realm, there were still a few realm pearls that had not been fused completely. This realm Pearl that belonged to ” Cao Bin ” was the last one. As soon as Xia ping ‘an entered the realm Pearl, he found that Cao Bin had already led an Army and was approaching Jinling. Hence, Xia ping’ an immediately knew what he had to do-Xia ping ‘an had not given any orders, but had fallen ” sick “.
Jinling was right in front of them, but the general suddenly said that he was sick, and the Army did not move. This made the generals in the Army very anxious. They came to visit one after another, but they were all blocked outside the tent by the general’s bodyguards.
Commander-in-Chief, all the generals have come to the tent to check on him several times in the past two days. They all want to come in and pay a visit. Just now, general pan and the other generals came again. They are waiting outside the tent, ” a guard came in and reported.
alright, let the generals in. Xia Pingan put down the military book and lay on the bed. Less than half a minute after the guard left, the sound of armor rubbing against the ground and war boots stepping on the ground could be heard from outside. In the blink of an eye, a large group of valiant and high-spirited song army generals had all rushed into the tent. After saluting, they all looked at Cao Bin, who was lying on the bed, with concern and greeted him.
Many of these generals were Cao Bin’s old subordinates and had followed Cao Bin for many years.
“Great Marshal Chi Chi”
“Your Excellency, are you alright?”
I’ve heard that the commander is not feeling well and have ordered for all the famous doctors and shamans of the southern Tang Empire to be captured. They are currently in the Army. Does the commander want to have them take a look at Qianqian? ” a general with a rough face asked with concern.
Seeing that it was about time, Xia Pingan glanced at the generals around him and said slowly, ” my illness is not a physical illness, but a mental illness. This mental illness can not be cured by those famous doctors and Wizards. The only people who can cure me and treat me are you!
ah! the song army generals looked at each other, not knowing what their commander meant.
Only a rough guy with a thick beard patted his chest and said loudly, ” argh, I know. I was told that human blood and flesh could also be used in medicine. Does the Marshal’s disease require our flesh and blood? that’s easy. It’s just a scar. With my blood, I could easily put 1 – 3 kg of it into the Marshal’s body!
After saying that, the guy found that all the others were glaring at him. Therefore, he lowered his head and didn’t continue.
as long as Marshal’s illness can be cured, we’ll do anything. Even if it’s a mountain of daggers and a sea of blood, as long as Marshal gives the order, we’ll do it for Marshal!
“That’s right!”
as soon as the commander gives the order, I will bring Li Yu’s head for a stroll tomorrow, ” the group of people said one after another.
Xia Pingan nodded with a smile on his face. if you all want me to get better, then I’ll make a sincere vow today. When Jinling city is conquered, you must restrain your soldiers and not kill anyone in the city. Then, I’ll get better. If anyone in the city is killed, it means you don’t want me to get better!
This request was very strange. The generals looked at each other and then agreed.
In ancient times, oaths were not made casually, but were very serious matters. Seeing that the generals had agreed, Xia Pingan had people set up an incense table outside the tent, burn incense, and offer it to heaven. After sincerely offering the sacrifice, he knelt down and swore that he would not kill a single person in the city on the day of the siege.
we swear that in order to help the Marshal recover, we will restrain our soldiers and not kill anyone in the city until the day Jinling city is conquered. If we break this oath, we will be destroyed by the heavens! The generals knelt down and swore to the heavens. After swearing, they stood up, all of them with serious expressions.
alright, if everyone can swear an oath, my illness will probably be cured very soon. Everyone can go and prepare for the siege. In two days, we will attack the city! Xia Pingan said.
“Yes, sir!”
The generals then left the tent.
Xia ping ‘an stayed in the tent for a day. On the second day, he walked out of the tent and inspected the camp in high spirits. When the generals in the song army camp saw that their commander had recovered, they were all in high spirits and were preparing to attack the city. Of course, yesterday, all the generals had given strict orders that no soldiers were allowed to kill anyone in the city on the day of the city Siege. Anyone who dared to kill someone in the city would be punished by military law. The person’s direct superior would be punished. He would also be implicated.
This was the oath of all the generals, and no one dared to neglect it.
After a round of inspection, Xia ping ‘an was very satisfied and nodded to himself. The wars in ancient times were extremely brutal, especially when it came to sieging a city. In many sieging battles, after the city was broken through, the attacking party would often kill the innocent. This was actually an unavoidable thing. This was because one party had already killed until their eyes were red. When they saw the deaths of their comrades, they would be filled with hatred and want to take revenge. On the other hand, there were many soldiers and civilians guarding the city. After the city was broken through, they were scattered in the city. Once they were hunted down, the war would expand. It would easily turn into a city-wide tragedy.
In the last battle when the song Army destroyed the Southern Tang Dynasty, Cao Bin pretended to be sick and made the generals swear not to kill a single person when the city was broken. In the end, he saved the lives of countless people in Jinling city. This was the benevolence of a general.
After patrolling the military camp, Xia Pingan sent a letter to Li Yu to persuade him to surrender. He even shot the letter into the city so that the soldiers and common people in the city could see it.
On the third day, the song Army launched a large-scale attack on Jin Ling city. In just one day, they were able to take down Jin Ling city easily.
The song Army that had just taken down Jin Ling city was on high alert. They did not dare to kill anyone in the city. The entire Jin Ling city would have to change its owner with the least amount of damage.
The song Army’s generals brought Li Yu and a group of Southern Tang ministers in the city to Xia Pingan. Xia Pingan looked at Li Yu’s pale and frightened face and was about to say something to this tragic poet Emperor when the realm Pearl in front of him shattered.
In the cave, Xia Pingan opened his eyes. just in time. I’ve finally finished the fusion. It’s a pity that I didn’t have time to discuss poetry with Li Yu. I wanted to see ancestor Chen Yu, but I didn’t get to see him either.
Xia ping ‘an still wanted to hear more about Cao Bin’s story in the realm Pearl, because he knew that when Cao Bin took over Jinling city and returned to the Imperial court, he would meet the ancestor Chen Tao. Many years ago, the ancestor Chen Tao read Cao Bin’s fortune. After reading Cao Bin’s fortune, the ancestor said that Cao Bin’s bones at the edge of the city were bulging, his Yintang was wide, and his eyes were long and bright. However, Cao Binyi’s lips are thin and droopy. He is not virtuous enough and is destined to have no good fortune in his old age.”
After Cao Bin pretended to be sick and saved countless lives in Jinling, on the way back to the Imperial court, he met the Grandmaster Chen Tao again to read his fortune. However, he found that Cao Bin’s face had changed. The Grandmaster Chen Tao said that Cao Bin’s face had changed after a few years. This face could not only increase one’s wealth but also one’s longevity. It could also bless one’s descendants and descendants. This was the yin virtue that Cao Bin had accumulated by saving countless lives in Jinling. It had changed his face and the fate of his family.
Empress Cao, who saved Su Dongpo, was Cao Bin’s granddaughter.
Cao Bin’s realm Pearl was the last realm Pearl that Xia Pingan had fused with from the secret storage of the realm pearls.
Previously, when Xia Pingan was one step into the nine suns realm, he still had some realm pearls that he had not fused with. Now, he had finally fused all the realm pearls, and the upper limit of his secret mandala’s divine power had increased by more than 170 points. At this moment, the upper limit of his secret mandala’s divine power had reached 13412 points.
it’s time to go and see those zombies and devil rats, ” Xia Pingan said. With a wave of his hand, he had already put away the array disc that protected the cave and his figure disappeared in an instant.
...
It was noon when he returned to the surface. The streets in the capital were still bustling with people.
This time, he spent less than three days in seclusion to merge with those realm pearls.
The atmosphere in the capital seemed to have eased up a lot. There were fewer military vehicles and soldiers patrolling the streets.
After Xia Pingan sat down in a restaurant and ordered some food, he directly used his Secret Service watch to contact Wang Xihe. The call was instantly connected.
“I’ve already returned to the capital. I can go to mozhou for a walk at any time.”
When he heard Xia Pingan’s voice, the old man on the other end seemed to let out a sigh of relief. He immediately felt relieved. Then, he told Xia Pingan a piece of news, ” China is also facing the threat of the K-virus and those zombies. Meanwhile, Great Yan has fought those zombies more often and has accumulated a certain amount of experience. Therefore, China has just sent a small team to Great Yan to discuss with us on how to deal with the K-virus zombies and demon rats. Should we bring the team from China to mozhou this time?”
“Someone from Huaxia is here?”
“Yes, you should have met a few people in that group in Paris. They are members of the Dragon division and a few military representatives!”
“As long as there’s no problem with their identities, then bring them along!” Xia ping ‘an nodded and said, ” Oh right, call tu Poli and young master Mo Yan. There are some ways to deal with those zombies in mozhou. I can talk to them!
As soon as he heard that Xia ping ‘an wanted to have an exchange, the old man’s spirits were lifted. He knew that Xia ping’ an’s strength was now unfathomable. The so-called exchange was definitely a great thing for young master mo and the others. As long as they could learn something from Xia ping ‘an, it might be beneficial for them. okay, I’ll make the arrangements. Where are you? I’ll send a car to pick you up.
Xia Pingan looked out of the window and said, ” in an hour, get a car to the intersection next to the Golden Bay restaurant near the capital TV station and wait for me!
...
“Alright!”
After ending the call with the old man, Xia Pingan’s stomach was already growling. There was no other way. Summoners were also humans, especially after completing the advanced advancement. After going through a large amount of physical empowerment, their bodies were in urgent need of energy and food.
After a while, the high-end food and drinks that Xia Pingan had ordered were served. They covered the entire table and there was enough for five to six people. The waiter thought that Xia Pingan was preparing to serve the guests here. When he saw Xia Pingan start to eat by himself, the waiter was dumbfounded. What shocked the waiter even more was that Xia Pingan had actually finished the entire table of food by himself and did not waste a single thing.
After finishing her meal, she casually threw a stack of fresh cash on the table and left the waiter with the words, ” I’ll give you a tip for the extra. Xia Pingan walked out of the restaurant, and the waiter’s excited screams could be heard.
A black luxury car with the license plate of the order Committee had already stopped at the intersection. A traffic police officer was watching from a distance, maintaining the traffic order around the area and not walking over. Xia Pingan walked over and opened the door to find a shiny bald man driving.
The big bald man turned around. It was tu POYi.
Tu Poli smiled at Xia Pingan and said, ” Sir, the public order committee’s VIP car is at your service. We are arriving at the airport. Please fasten your seat belt!
As he spoke, tu polu stepped on the accelerator, and the black car turned around on the spot. The tires were so worn on the ground that smoke was coming out. It whizzed out and disappeared into the street in the blink of an eye.
