Xiao Xu has a gentle personality and is well-known as a Pianpian son. Because he was weak since he was a child, he couldn't even take a horse gait.
In Su Li's impression, this person has always been dressed in flowing robes, with a slight smile, and occasionally a childish look.
Even, he was a little compassionate.
He never really hurt anything.
However, at this moment, with the image of himself as a handsome young man, he swung his sword and cut off the arm of the envoy.
His moon-white robe was covered with sprayed blood, but his expression didn't change a bit.
He turned his head, looked at Su Li, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, and said: "General, the two countries are fighting each other without beheading the emissary, but this person's words are not rude, so I will teach the general a lesson. I hope the general will not blame him."
He spoke so calmly, but Su Li saw that his hand holding the sword trembled slightly.
She blinked, then suddenly chuckled, "Mr. is right."
After finishing speaking, she raised her hand and waved it, and said loudly: "Come here, send Dongyi's envoy and his...arm back to Dongyi. Be careful, don't let him die, lest Dongyi want to kill him again." Condemn me, Bei Lan, for disregarding morality."
"Yes!" The two guards immediately picked up Dong Yi, who was almost fainted from the pain, and then stepped back with that arm.
When there were no other people in the tent, Su Li got up and walked to Xiao Xu, and said, "Senior brother, you have never hurt anyone, why..."
Xiao Xu hung the sword back on the wall, and said softly: "I know you want to peel the skin and bones of the Dongyi people, but you need to think twice before doing anything. I will do it for you if you want to do it, and you don't need to do it."
When Su Li heard this, her heart sank.
"Brother..."
She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
The death of Shangguan Ming cast a shadow over her heart. She just wanted to end the war quickly and get out of here quickly. It was best not to think of that scene forever.
She stood there with mixed feelings in her heart, but she couldn't make any expression on her face.
Xiao Xu sighed softly, hugged her into his arms, and patted her on the back, as if comforting a child.
"No matter what decision you make, I will stand by your side." Xiao Xu said.
This is his promise.
Even if he knew, maybe in his whole life, he would never be able to let her open his heart again.
Su Li leaned in his arms, tears rolling down silently.
…
Bei Lan was unwilling to negotiate a peace, so the battle could only continue.
As the coach, Su Li's will infected all soldiers in the army. Everyone had the heart to defeat Dongyi so that they would not dare to attack again.
The Dongyi country was retreating steadily, and no matter how much they wanted to negotiate a peace, they couldn't get an answer. Instead, there are a few more messengers who lack arms and legs.
When Xiao Xu chopped off someone's arm for the first time, his hands were still trembling a little, but he became more proficient with the number of times, and his expression remained unchanged, and he was acting like a young master Shi Wushuang. Dongyi's envoys were afraid of such a pretender, showing that it was the extremely cruel Beilan military adviser in the gentleman.
Su Li insisted on fighting this battle for another half a year, and the vitality of the Dongyi Kingdom was severely injured. In the end, they surrendered countless rare and precious treasures to prevent Beilan's army from breaking through the gates of the country.
This battle consumed too much national strength, and Dongyi might not be able to make a comeback within ten years.
Emperor Beilan, Beitang Shanglong Yan Dayue, personally went out of the palace to welcome the triumphant army.
Su Li, dressed in silver armor, rode a horse and returned to Beilan with Shangguan Ming's tomb.
And his bones were left at the border, still guarding the country.
