Chapter 399 For the death of the dragonfly, for the slaughter of tens of thousands of people

Qin Mubai, who had not eaten for three days and three nights, hugged the small building and had a meal together, and was persuaded to go to bed by Wu Mei Niang, Princess Gao Yang and Chen Yan. Originally, he was also interested in playing in the small building, but he didn't expect that his head had just touched the pillow for three seconds, and then he fell asleep.

Snoring like thunder.

All three women breathed a long breath and fell to the ground in their hearts.

The small building was still lying in his arms, rolling around mischievously, looking at his face curiously from time to time, and then playing with his thick and short beard with his little hand. Chen Yan wanted to take her away, but Qin Mubai, who was sleeping, refused to let go.

"It's really flesh and blood, and it's born like this." Wu Mei Niang said, "Look, Xiao Louer is only one or two years old and obviously ignorant, but he is very intimate with Mu Bai, who met for the first time, and he is not afraid and unfamiliar at all."

Princess Gaoyang also lay on the bedside carefully like a child. She was not only afraid of waking up Qin Mubai, but also couldn't help laughing and teasing the small building, and said, "It's so funny!" I want to have one, too!"

Wu Meiniang and Chen Yan couldn't help laughing.

"Little building, don't disturb Dad to sleep. Let's go out and play." Chen Yan called out.

The small building listened to his mother most and got up. At this time, Qin Mubai also slept like mud and didn't know anything.

The three women took the small building out of the room, carefully came to the door, and took a long breath.

"Now that things are like this, it's just the beginning." Wu Mei Niang said, "In the future, Mu Bai will encounter greater pressure and trouble. My father's hatred is not the same, and now there is a war with Tubo. I'm really afraid that he can't control his emotions and make some unusual actions.

"Don't be afraid!" Princess Gaoyang said categorically, "Mu Bai has experienced too many storms. Believe him, he will definitely survive!"

Wu Mei Niang and Chen Yan were slightly stunned and nodded gently.

Princess Gaoyang really can afford to say this. Although she is also a confidant of Qin Mubai, Princess Gaoyang is the most experienced when it comes to experiencing turbulence together.

"Sister Yan, you are the most wise and calm, and Mu Bai has always respected you. What's your good idea now to cheer him up and keep calm in the face of big and wrong? Wu Mei Niang asked.

Chen Yan smiled and said, "You look at me too highly. In fact, Mu Bai and I are more like friends. I never ask or interfere in his affairs, whether it's public or private. Moreover, I don't understand what you are talking about. There is no way to start. I'm sorry."

"Uh..." Wu Mei Niang and Princess Gao Yang were stunned together.

"However, I have a small suggestion." Chen Yan said, "At this time, you need an elder who has prestige, experience, and is deeply trusted and respected by Mu Bai to enlighten him."

"You mean, your godfather, King Jiangxia?"

"Yes."

The next day, early morning.

Qin Mubai actually woke up long ago, but he lay down for a while. I don't know how long I slept in this sleep. Anyway, I woke up with soreness all over. After that, I washed and changed my clothes and looked in the mirror. Although I was a little haggard, my spirit finally came back.

At this time, the door was knocked.

"Come in." Qin Mubai only regarded it as a bodyguard maid to serve the living.

One person pushed the door and entered, and Qin Mubai couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"The prince? Aren't you going to break me? How can I help you?" Qin Mubai hurried to greet him.

Li Daozong actually sent breakfast to Qin Mubai. He smiled and said, "You don't have to be so happy between you and me. Come on, let's eat together. I haven't eaten yet.

The breakfast is very rich, all of which are Qin Mubai's favorite food. When he came to his senses, he also felt hungry. Qin Mubai had a full meal without eating, which made Li Daozong laugh.

"Okay, it seems that you have recovered!" He smiled and said, "Well, are you interested in talking to me?"

"The prince came just in time. If you don't come, I will come to you today. Qin Mubai wiped his mouth, asked his servant to unload the table and serve tea, and said to him, "At this moment, I can only ask the prince!"

"say." Li Daozong held a light drink of tea and said with a smile on his face.

"My father died in the battle of Gao Chang. This hatred is not in the public and private. Originally, I didn't dare to let go of my hands and feet, but now, I don't care about anything!" Qin Mubai frowned and his eyes were burning, and he said, "I want to write to the court on business, please fight against Tubo and fight against the Western Regions!" Whether the court agrees or not, I will rise up! First of all, my father died in the battle, the river was shocked, and tens of millions of soldiers and people were indignant and eager to take revenge. The hearts of the people are like tide, and the hearts of the army are like tide! At this moment, I want to respond to the people of Tianshun and hang the people - I want to conscript!"

"It's nothing more than two things, one is to write a letter to ask for war, and the other is to recruit and expand troops, right?" Li Daozong said lightly.

"Yes." Qin Mubai nodded and said, "Does the prince think it's appropriate?"

Li Daozong pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I know that you have decided, right? What I said is to ask my king, just out of respect for my king.

Qin Mubai smiled and nodded, "The prince said a big truth. This time I have indeed decided that no matter who I am, I can't change my mind!"

"Now that it's decided, don't ask anything wrong!" Li Daozong suddenly put down the tea cup, waved his hand and raised his voice. He said, "What you should do, just do it!"

"This is natural." Qin Mubai said, "I just want to know what kind of reaction the court will have?" Most importantly, I wonder if the court will give me some substantial support?

"It's hard to say." Li Daozong shook his head and said, "You were right just now. It's public and private, and you can't hold a grudge against God. For the Tang Dynasty, Shubao was the marshal of the three armies and the feudal official sent by the Tang Dynasty to the Western Regions. No matter who kills him, he is openly the enemy of the Tang Dynasty, and there is no way back. From Your Majesty's position, this kind of thing must not be tolerated. No matter how many people in the court oppose and there is great pressure, according to his personality, he will definitely avenge his uncle Bao, and he will not give up!"

"Actually..." Qin Mubai sighed, shook his head and said, "Only I can understand my father's thoughts. Originally, he didn't have to die at all!"

"Oh? Tell me about it?" Li Daozong was surprised.

Qin Mubai nodded gently and said, "The day before yesterday, I asked the soldiers who came back from the Western Expedition. They told me that a long time ago, Xue Rengui, General Zuo Weiwei, had advised his father to retreat. At that time, it was the time when Anxi Protectorate had just been established, and Qu Zhisheng invited his father to enter the government office.

Li Daozong nodded as if he had some understanding and sighed, "I can imagine... According to your father's personality, he will definitely not accept Xue Rengui's advice, or insist on entering the main guardianship."

"Yes. We all know what happened later. Qin Mubai frowned and said, "I know that there are tigers in the mountains, but I prefer tigers to the mountains. This is my father's character. And... Since he first stepped into the royal city of Gaochang, he has already reported his mortal heart to die!"

"Why did he do this?" Li Daozong asked with a little puzzlement, "Since Xue Rengui has broken the treachery of the Tubo people, which also explains the current overall situation of Lanzhou, why does your father die?"

"The reason, I guess, is nothing more than three layers!" Qin Mubai said, "One, of course, is caused by personality. My father's war horse has been famous all over the world for half his life, and he has fought forward. How could he ever say the word "retired"? The army of the Western Expedition rushed to attack thousands of miles and won 18 victories in a row, and finally conquered Gaochang, allowing the Tang Dynasty to take the first foundation in the Western Regions. In this case, whoever gives up retreat will be very unwilling, not to mention a strong man like his father? Second, in my father's heart, His Majesty always puts His Majesty the Emperor first... A death to repay you, that's all!"

Li Daozong's thick eyebrows fell into meditation. After a long time, he nodded and sighed leisurely, "I understand... At the beginning, my father rose up against the order and rushed to attack Gaochang. This incident did not cause a great disturbance in the court. He covered it up and showed his military achievements for your father and his subordinates. For this reason, your father must be grateful to your majesty. This is one of them; the other is that if he doesn't report to the sky and withdraws from Gaochang on his own initiative, isn't it self-destruction and slapping Longyan? With Shubao's personality, he would rather drink and suffer than affect the emperor's reputation or embarrass him. Third, Shubao knew that the court had great resistance to the use of troops in Lanzhou, and even His Majesty the Emperor had no choice. If he really fell in the middle of the country, he would have a national feud. In this way, the pressure suddenly subsided, and the emperor also had the ability to carry out his Western Regions plan... Hey! Uncle Bao, Uncle Bao, what a rare brave and loyal minister and unparalleled national scholar!"

"The prince's analysis is no different from the truth I have come up with in the past two days." Qin Mubai's eyes dimmed a little and said, "In the end, my father went to difficulties generously and repay your kindness with his death. I specially left Xue Rengui to my father, because Xue Rengui's wisdom and courage are unique. He has seen through the treachery of the Tubo people and the current overall situation. In fact, my father must have known that what Xue Rengui said was very reasonable and deeply agreed with him. However, he just didn't want to leave... So he entrusted the army to Commander Xue Rengui and entered Gaochang alone. In order to preserve the strength of that army. Before he died in the last battle, he ordered Yuwen Hongtai to break through the siege and give an order to Xue Rengui, and ordered him to withdraw to the south and break out to Puchanghai. Under that situation at that time, he did not ask Xue Rengui to go to the rescue, which was enough to see that my father had already seen the overall situation and understood the enemy's conspiracy... Unfortunately, it's a pity! If I had known this, I really shouldn't have returned to Chang'an and married Gaoyang!"

"Forget it, I don't blame you." Li Daozong sighed several times and said, "Although there are many reasons for the death of Uncle Bao, it is also due to his temperament. Even so, it's the name of a hero in his life. Moreover, he will never die in vain! - Now, thousands of troops and people are ruled by Lanzhou, and they have vowed to avenge the marshal. As soon as the news spreads to Chang'an, the whole dynasty must be shocked by the world. At that time, no matter how powerful the Lord and the faction are, they can't stop this great battle! - Whether you can succeed in the end and avenge your father is all up to you!"

"I know." Qin Mubai's eyes were slightly squinted, and he nodded gently and said, "My father used his life to complete the loyalty, courage and fame of life, the ambition of the emperor, and the ambition and retribution of my...! - In the final analysis, my father died for your majesty and died for me!"

"I was going to say these words to you, but I don't know how to say them. Good, you have realized it yourself. Li Daozong sighed again, patted Qin Mubai on the shoulder, and said, "The Qin family has a father, and the old man is inspired to die for the son, and he is generous; the Qin family has a son, and the Qianlijuer continues to gallop for the slaughter of people, vigorous!"

"For the death of the dragonfly, for the slaughter of tens of thousands of people! ..." Qin Mubai's eyes were tingling until they were red. He couldn't help closing his eyes and sighing at the sky. Then he patted the table and shouted, "Your Highness, you're right! My father is willing to die for the son, and I dare to slaughter for tens of thousands of people! Vigorous, no regrets!"

"Good! What I want is your courage and domineering!" Li Daozong shouted and patted Qin Mubai on the shoulder and said, "Now, take a look at the barracks outside Lanzhou City, and you will know what it means - vigorously!"

With a little confusion and curiosity, Qin Mubai followed Li Daozong out of the house and went to the governor's office first. Here, many of the generals and officials of the three armies are all here, waiting for him to come out of the city together. In Lanzhou City, the eyes of filial piety are blank.

When he arrived at the large military camp in the suburbs, Qin Mubai was almost shocked when he was still several miles away from the camp!

The vast expanse, the white flag is like the sea!

About 100,000 people gathered on both sides of the barracks. Everyone wore filial piety and raised soul flags everywhere. The generals and soldiers of the three armies wore armor, horse saddles, knives and guns held high helmets and tied white clothes, which was as magnificent as the tide.

Qin Mubai, Li Daozong and other large and small officials were dozens of generals. Seeing this scene, they were deeply shocked!

At this time, a team of cavalry rushed over, and the leader was Hou Junji, who was white-robed and filial.

"Young commander! The generals and soldiers of the three armies are the same enemy and their morale is crazy, and they vow to avenge the marshal! I'm entrusted by the generals, and I'm here to fight!" Hou Junji hugged his fists heavily and shouted loudly.

"What's wrong with these people?" Qin Mubai asked in a low voice.

"The people gathered spontaneously!" Hou Junji said, "I will not be driven away, and I will not retreat!" The people said that on the day of his life, the commander-in-chief would protect the people and protect Li Shu, and help him in danger like a god. The people regarded him as a father and a mother, and a god like a Buddha! Now that the marshal died in the battle, the enemies of the foreign country are free, and the people regard it as their father's hatred and vow to avenge the marshal! - These people are all Hanhu Qingzhuang under the rule of the governor's government of Lanzhou, all of whom voluntarily joined the army and serve as government soldiers! They bring their own food, bedding, armor and horses, and don't want the governor's office to spend a penny and a grain! Just wait for the young commander to give him an order, and there will be tens of thousands of soldiers under Lanzhou's command - to fight against the crime and revenge!"

After saying that, Hou Junji waved the flag in his hand to the sky, and more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians behind him shouted loudly at the same time - "Rejuvenate the army and fight against the crime, revenge!"

"Rejuvenate the army and attack the crime, revenge with blood and hatred!"

......

The universe shakes, and the mountains and rivers lose color!
