Chapter 163 Cruelty and Compassion

"Our military order, the whole army withdrew five miles back, and then camped on the spot to prepare to return to Luan City tomorrow. Muyun, you take 200 masters and send my eldest brother back first. Xiaotian, you also and my eldest brother go back to Luancheng first to wait for me. Execute it immediately without any mistakes. Jiang Feng suddenly opened his mouth and issued an order directly.

"But..." Meng Zhan wanted to say something, but was stared back by Jiang Feng.

"If you want to violate the military order, why don't you implement it quickly?" Jiang Feng looked at the crowd and found that no one moved, so he emphasized it again and then took the lead in walking towards Luan City.

Jiang Feng's military order has been issued, and even if someone opposes it, it will not help. Meng Zhan could only convey Jiang Feng's order, and the army began to start and retreated in the direction of Luan City.

Seeing that Jiang Feng's army has gone far away, Vice Commander Qiu has not yet reacted. One of the generals next to him pinched his face fiercely.

"It will hurt, it will hurt! Haha! I'm not dreaming, not dreaming, I'm still alive, still alive..." His laughter immediately infected others. After everyone proved that they were still alive by their own methods, they all laughed.

Laughter went to the sky, and then the joy of the rest of my life after the disaster. However, no one saw that although many people in the army were laughing, they were crying.

Jiang Feng walked in the center of the army, and all the other senior officials in the army were here except for the leading officers.

"Grandpa, will you blame me for letting them go?" Jiang Feng suddenly asked Jiang Xuelong next to him.

"No, because I believe you have a reason for doing so. However, I'm very curious. They said you were cruel, but you let them go. Is this compassionate? Jiang Xuelong originally wanted to absorb more than 200,000 people, but Jiang Feng's military order had been issued, and he didn't want to embarrass Jiang Feng.

"I, Jiang Feng, am a member of the Jiangtian Empire, and so are they. Nowadays, we are internal and external troubles. If we are fighting inside, we will take advantage of people outside. Although they rebel today, most of them will definitely stand up if we call on them to resist foreign enemies together one day. I, Jiang Feng, will not take the lead in pointing the army at the army of my country, even if they are rebels. Jiang Feng said faintly and sighed helplessly again.

"However, Aofeng has defected to the Holy See. If he is in power, he is not a puppet." Jiang Xuelong's heart is also very contradictory. For Jiang Aotian and Jiang Aofeng, they are his descendants. He doesn't know who he should help.

"Alas! Originally born from the same root, it was fried and too urgent. Jiang Feng suddenly thought of Cao Zhi's seven-step poem and read it out.

Hearing Jiang Feng say this, he suddenly woke up with Meng Zhan, who was a little unhappy.

"The young master is right. It was originally born from the same root, and it was fried and too urgent. Nowadays, the troops of the fire continent and the water continent have reached the territory of our empire at the same time, but we are still fighting infighting, which is inherently stupid. Meng Xing said something, and his mind raised his understanding of Jiang Feng again.

"Well, I agree." Blood sacrifice cherry blossoms also expressed their opinions at this time.

"Jiang Feng is right. Let's go back to the south first. Proud army is also the army of our empire, so let him calm down the chaos first. I'm going back to Luancheng now. Your eldest brother's injury is very serious and needs me to treat him. Jiang Xuelong said and looked at the blood sacrifice cherry blossoms.

"Blood Long, you go first. I'm here. I will take good care of Jiang Feng. If the Dark Holy See returns, it will definitely make them suffer long enough. Blood Sacrifice Sakura naturally knew what Jiang Xuelong wanted to say. He was afraid that after he left, there would be no master here, and the Dark Holy See took the opportunity to attack.

"Mongolian Zhan immediately sent a message to Long Yi, asking him to start to transfer troops and be ready to attack the south at any time." Jiang Feng suddenly remembered that at this time, almost all of Jiang Aofeng's army came out, which was a good opportunity to attack the south, and they would also recuperate there.

At night, it is always so quiet. The soldiers in the barracks had just passed the war and had an early rest. Outside Jiang Feng's big tent, he looked at the night sky alone.

There is something empty in his eyes, and I don't know what he is thinking.

"Young master, it's late at night, why don't you sleep?" Meng Xing didn't know when he came behind Jiang Feng.

"Uncle Meng Xing, it's okay. I can't sleep. Let's come here to see the night sky." Jiang Feng saw that it was Meng Xing, so she smiled, but his smile contained bitterness.

"I forgot to ask during the day. We will leave for a few days tomorrow. I'm worried that the soldiers will get up late and delay the march. Moreover, with so many people, it takes a lot of time just to prepare. Meng Xing is used to the name Jiang Feng. When there are no outsiders, Jiang Feng always likes to call him uncle, which makes it difficult for him to postpone.

"When to prepare for the fifth update, just wait for the order when to leave." Jiang Feng thought about it and did not give a specific departure time. He is waiting for a group of people.

"Okay, young master, go to rest early. I'll go first." Meng Xing finished speaking and left, leaving Jiang Feng alone to look at the starry sky in a daze.

"My cruelty and compassion are relative, just like life and death. They are separated from each other, but they have to rely on each other. While I felt the trial of reincarnation, I also felt the field of magic, but I didn't know the beginning and end of reincarnation. Maybe that's where I really want to go. Jiang Feng's face showed fatigue for the first time. He shook his head and walked back to the big account.

At the fifth hour, Jiang Feng got up early.

Walking in the busy barracks, Jiang Feng suddenly remembered that in modern times, he was reading Xin Qiji's poem "Drunkenly pick up the lamp and look at the sword, dreamed of blowing the horns in the camp, 800 miles under his command, fifty strings turned over the outside the game, and ordered soldiers in the field in autumn. Lu Fei was fast, and his bow was as shocked as a Thunderbolt. But the king's heavenly affairs won the name of his life, and it happened in vain. At that time, there is always a feeling of boiling blood.

However, it was only at this time that I found that the war was so cruel. How many people are buried on the battlefield? Maybe it's the so-called horse leather shroud.

Unconsciously, Jiang Feng came to the Firehead Camp. This is the place where the army prepares food.

An old man was struggling to move an iron pot weighing about 40 kilograms to the car, but the weight of the iron pot made the old man look a little difficult.

Jiang Feng quickly walked up, gently lifted the cauldron, and then put it on the car.

"Old man, this pot is so heavy, why do you keep it with you?" Looking at the old man gasping aside, Jiang Feng was a little curious.

"Hehe, thank you. This pot has been with me for nearly 30 years, and I am reluctant to throw it away. Originally, I had a grandson in the military camp. Every time, he came to help me move the pot, but this time... Alas! No more, no more. Tears were faintly visible in the old man's eyes. Jiang Feng had guessed that his grandson had died on the battlefield.

"Don't be sad, the empire will not forget him." Jiang Feng didn't know how to comfort the old man and could only sigh in his heart.

"Hope, in fact, I don't regret letting him join the army. It is everyone's duty to defend the country. I'm old, and his father needs to farm at home to support my family and my younger grandson and granddaughter. So, I can only let him come. The only thing I feel sorry for him is that he hasn't got a family yet and left like this. You said..." The old man's tears surged out again.

"Don't be too sad. Depending on your age, you will be discharged from the army. When you go home, you will be able to reunite with your family. Fortunately, you still have grandchildren and granddaughters. If your eldest grandson is alive, I don't want you to be so sad. Jiang Feng wiped away the old man's tears with his own hands, and he didn't know what it was like.

"Look at me, I stained your clothes. You must be a good counselor of a general, otherwise you can't walk around without wearing a military uniform. All right, go back quickly. This time when I return to Luancheng, I will apply for retirement. The old man shook his body and continued to pack his things.

"Maybe the war really shouldn't happen." Jiang Feng sighed and returned to his big account.

It was finally dawn, and there was still no one in the place Jiang Feng looked at.

"Young master, maybe they won't come. Let's go." Meng Xing stood behind Jiang Feng and also looked ahead.

"Maybe, let the army prepare to go. Since they have chosen, we don't have to force it." Jiang Feng turned his head and prepared to go back to the barracks.

"Young master, look, there is dust flying over there. There should be a lot of people coming this way." When Jiang Feng was about to move, suddenly, Meng Xing looked at the dust in the distance and said happily to Jiang Feng.

"Oh, isn't it?" Jiang Feng also looked back with expectation. Sure enough, at the distant horizon, a lot of dust gradually flew up.

"Haha, Meng Xing, pick them up with me." Jiang Feng was very happy that his expectations were not in vain.

"But, young master, just the two of us." Meng Xing was worried about the other party's fraud, and he and Jiang Feng were in danger at that time.

"Are you afraid?" Jiang Feng looked at Meng Xing, but his eyes couldn't hide his excitement.

"Of course I'm not afraid. I'm just worried about you." Meng Xing was helpless. He knew that if he didn't go, he was afraid that Jiang Feng would go alone.

"I'm not afraid of what you're afraid of. Let's go." Meng Xing took the lead in moving forward. If it was really a plan, he would have to get involved first.

"That's right, haha..." Jiang Feng laughed, and his body flashed in an instant and headed forward.

"Deputy Commander Qiu, how far are we from them? We have been five miles. Why haven't we seen them yet?" Next to Vice Commander Qiu, a general asked Vice Commander Qiu strangely.

"Ha ha, don't worry, isn't that coming?" Deputy Marshal Qiu looked at the two people getting closer and closer in the distance and saw a depression in front of him. That was the place where Jiang Feng's army was stationed. No wonder they could not see it in the distance. It turned out that they were stationed in the depression.

"Are those two shadows?" This man was reminded by Vice Marshal Qiu and suddenly saw two people approaching them in the distance.
