Great Blue Night Watchman

The rough man at the top gently pushed the woman in his arms, stood up, and made a fist with both hands: "Zhou Ze, the commander of Dragon City, has met the capital inspector!"

Lin Su returned the salute and turned his eyes to the other side. The first man on the left was wearing a third-grade official uniform. He raised his head gracefully. There was no woman in his arms, but there were two most beautiful women on the left and right. He was just pouring wine. Judging from the belts they tied casually, they should have been in the man's arms the moment before Lin Su and the others came in, but they were just avoiding it.

Lin Su smiled: "Is this Mr. He, the right minister of the Ministry of War?"

"Exactly!" The official stood up and said, "Master Lin came to Longcheng from afar. What is your purpose?"

Lin Su bowed slightly: "I have met Mr. He! I came to Longcheng just to pay homage to my deceased friend Li Xiaotian."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was embarrassed. Singing and dancing seemed too frivolous when the deceased was on top.

They pushed the women in their arms away at the same time, pushing them too hard and too urgently. Some women stumbled to the ground, and some knocked over the cups and plates on the table.

Lin Su didn't look at all the ugly things and didn't seem to pay attention at all.

But the atmosphere was solidified.

"General Li died on the battlefield, which is really a misfortune for the country. After I arrived at Longcheng, I held incense and offered sacrifices to him from afar. Today is the celebration banquet for the defense of Longcheng. Your Majesty is merciful and allows the Longcheng sergeants to drink as much as they want. ...Master Lin, please take a seat!" He Shun gently pointed to the first position on the right. A general in that position had already stood up and planned to abdicate.

The first person on the right is the seat of distinguished guests, and there is nothing wrong with the etiquette.

Lin Sudao: "I am not here today on official business. How dare I disturb the celebration banquet appointed by His Majesty? I will not attend the banquet. Just arrange a place for me and my party to live."

Everyone's eyes turned to Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze smiled heartily: "Since Lord Lin has given the order, how dare I disrespect you? Come on, send Lord Lin and his party to the Kangyueyuan."

Lin Su and the other five people turned around and left the commander's mansion.

In the commander-in-chief's residence, everyone's eyes turned to Zhou Ze and He Shun.

The smile on Zhou Ze's face stretched again: "Come on, drink!"

The banquet at the Commander-in-Chief Mansion was normal again.

The four people around Lin Su all had dark faces, but they did not speak because they had nothing to say.

Helan City's 30,000 elite soldiers died on the battlefield and should be sacrificed, but He Shun said that he had already done so.

The Dragon City defenders should celebrate their great victory, and they were celebrating right now.

What can you say?

This is arranged by His Majesty!

However, their hearts were filled with anger one after another...

Stepping into Kang Leuan and entering the inner room, Zhang Haoran waved his hand and slapped the table: "This is unreasonable!"

A real blast.

"Thirty thousand people died in the front, and there was peace and harmony in the rear. What did the soldiers think?" Huo Qiye was furious.

"Remind Brother Huo, none of the 30,000 elite soldiers in Helan City survived! They are the soldiers who should have opinions, but can they put forward their own ideas?" Li Yangxin said a word lightly, very politely, but When I heard it, it hurt my bones.

Lin Su glanced at the four brothers and said softly: "It's getting late today, let's take a rest!"

Turned around and entered his room.

As soon as he entered his room, Lin Su's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He smelled a wisp of fragrance on his nose. It was Chunhen who was just born this year.

Beside the window, a woman slowly turned back. Her face was tightly covered by a thick mask, revealing only a pair of eyes as calm as spring water.

"when did you come?"

"After I settled the girl, I came. My flying boat is much faster than your Poyun Shuttle, so I arrived half a day earlier."

Judging from this sentence, her identity has been revealed, and she is Bi Xuanji.

"You alone?"

Bi Xuanji smiled: "Not many people came, but they were all 'hidden fragrance' masters... Although it only took half a day, the harvest was already big enough."

"Tell me."

"The first big gain is that there is no Dragon City defense battle at all!"

What?

Lin Su was shocked...

Bi Xuanji let out a long sigh, I finally know how shameless some people are, they really challenge the limits of the world...

There was an invasion by the enemy's army, and there was some 30,000 elite soldiers from Helan City who died in battle. However, Ohyu did not attack Dragon City, and the defense of Dragon City was a total futile effort!

But in the name of the victory at Dragon City, the court officials sent a grand condolence team to deliver His Majesty's grace from three thousand miles away...

For those who participate in generals and above, each person will be rewarded with three hundred taels of silver!

I also sent some fine wine. Do you know what kind of wine was given to people above the rank of general? Your home is beside the white clouds!

Lin Su said coldly: "How to comfort the fallen soldiers?"

"Those who die in battle can choose a man to join the army and be exempted from Yao service for three years, that's all."

"That's it? The military law of Da Cang clearly stipulates that those killed in battle will be compensated ten taels of silver. How dare they deduct the silver taels they exchanged for their lives?"

Haha, Bi Xuanji smiled faintly: "It seems that you still don't understand the customs in the military well enough. Although there is a military law that makes up for the death of ten liang, how many times has it really reached the families of the fallen soldiers? Generals at all levels have to give a little face. Two or two taels, but they are often embezzled by junior officers or even messengers. The shameless general lists the number at random and says that this person has overdrafted more than ten taels during his service, so he simply refuses to pay. Look at these generals in Longcheng, but Do you want face?"

Lin Su was truly furious.

"There is a second harvest!"

Lin Su took a deep breath: "You tell me."

"There is a very special army. They are also Li Xiaotian's subordinates. They went to Dayu Tiesha Valley under Li Xiaotian's military order. They were not in Helan City when the incident happened, so they escaped and returned to Longcheng alive. If there was really any defensive battle , it should be them, because when they retreated from Iron Sand Valley, they were blocked by enemies in front of them and pursued by soldiers behind them. Of their five thousand troops, only three thousand returned successfully in the end, and all of them were injured."

Lin Su's eyes shone brightly: "Where are they?"

"In the back camp, my people brought some medicine to open up the joints and let the military doctors use it on them. It should have taken effect by now. By tomorrow, they will be able to stand up."

Lin Su breathed out softly: "Thank you!"

Bi Xuanji looked at him strangely: "You thank me for them?"

"I should thank you because..."

His voice stopped suddenly, and Bi Xuanji in front of him disappeared on the spot.

The door rang softly, and Zhang Haoran and Huo Qi stood side by side at the door: "Brother Lin, I just heard a piece of news. There is a remnant of soldiers in the back mountain who retreated from Helan City."

"Come on, let's go take a look."

Five officials, wearing official uniforms, stepped into the back mountain and caused a certain degree of commotion, but it was not intense.

Especially the wounded who were scattered on both sides of the road. They looked at the five officials passing by and acted very indifferently. Some even closed their eyes and didn't look at them.

Lin Su took the lead and walked through the dirty and messy barracks. The anger in his heart could not be suppressed one after another.

Here, there is a world of ice and fire with the Dragon City Commander's Mansion.

It had just rained in Longcheng, and the ground was muddy. The wounded were lying in the mud. They were all sallow and thin. On the haystack in front, a man who looked like a general was lying in the grass, gnawing on a steamed bun, yellow and black. The crumbs of white and white crumbs floated down from the corner of his mouth. He carefully caught them with his hands and put them into his mouth with difficulty.

This hand was wrapped in a piece of black cloth. The black cloth was stained with blood. It was obviously his own clothes.

Lin Su passed by him, and the general looked forward without looking at Lin Su.

But Lin Su stopped: "Brother, how is the injury?"

As soon as the six words came out, the general's hand trembled suddenly, and he looked at Lin Su with puffed-up cheeks, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears.

"Li Xiaotian is my brother, and his brother is also my brother! Brother, suffer!"

The general's eyes suddenly filled with rain and mist, and his lips trembled: "Sir, you are..."

"I'm Lin Su!"

"Tum!" The general suddenly knelt down heavily: "Master Lin..."

There was a cry in his voice.

"Master Lin!" A general next to him rushed over: "We have heard General Li say your name many times. General Li has been looking forward to your arrival day and night, and you are finally here..."

Another group of sergeants gathered around, all of them extremely excited.

"Sir, you are the first high-ranking official to mention General Li. General Li will be relieved to know..." Someone next to him burst into tears.

"Thirty thousand brothers died in the battlefield, but the commander-in-chief is drinking and having fun. The brothers are very angry, sir..."

"Sir, you have to make the decision for the 30,000 brothers in Helan City..."

"Yes, sir, you have to make the decision for thirty thousand brothers..."

Lin Su took a deep breath: "How do you want me to make decisions for you?"

Everyone was quiet. Yes, they were just angry, but what could they do? Let the gentleman in front of you confront the commander-in-chief? Obviously not what they want.

The first general knelt on the ground and said: "Sir, 30,000 brothers died in the north, but their family members will starve to death in their hometown. What is the law of heaven? Therefore, I will kneel down and ask you to fight for a few coins for them." This is where we take care of our 30,000 brothers."

Lin Su agreed directly: "According to the law of Da Cang, all soldiers killed in battle can be compensated ten taels of silver each. I will accept this and guarantee it will be in place!"

"Ten taels of silver per person? Sir, are you... are you serious? In fact, having one or two taels can save the lives of their relatives..."

"The state has national laws and the military has military regulations. How can we go back on our word? I promise to fulfill my promise to the army!"

The whole place was shaken, and the wounded suddenly became energetic.

Just this sentence is all it takes to activate it.

"Who is the leader of your army?"

"Du Yuting, General Du is practicing kung fu behind the mountain. Your Excellency, I will wait a moment while I go to find him..."

"No need, I'll go see him!"

Three generals led the way, with Lin Su and five others sandwiched in the middle. Behind them were a large group of sergeants, all of whom were high-spirited...

"Brother Lin, you are a little impulsive. You promised to give each of the fallen soldiers ten taels of silver. This..." Huo Qi's voice came to his ears, and he stopped abruptly. He wanted to say that this matter was almost It is impossible to realize it. Although the law comes first, there are too many things in reality that will make the law an empty talk. The Ministry of Revenue has no money, which is the reason why it is popular all over the world. And this reason is still true. The Ministry of Revenue does not have much money, and the so-called "full treasury" is just a distant legend.

Lin Su glanced at the whole audience: "Look at them, these soldiers have just experienced a series of bloody battles, their blood is not dry, their wounds are still there, they are chewing on cornrows and sleeping in mud pits, but the only request they made to us is It has nothing to do with ourselves, it only concerns our brothers who have died in battle... If we can’t fulfill this request for them, how can we stand between heaven and earth?!”

The four brothers looked at each other and sighed.

Yes, this is a dilemma. They all know that the requirements of the group of people in front of them should be met if they are a little bit humane. However...

There was a loud earthquake, and a stone flew out of the valley and hit the cliff heavily...

Everyone stopped and looked at a man with disheveled hair in the valley. This man was holding a big knife and slashing down one blow after another. Every blow he made was so powerful that it split a huge boulder into two halves. He was like Tirelessly, he keeps chopping...

"General Du is depressed. He has been hacking all night. He is actually injured..." A general next to him told Lin Su softly.

Lin Su Qiandu's Eyes had long been firmly locked on, and the bluestone under Du Yuting was stained with blood, and his right leg was still oozing with blood.

His eyes were also blood red.

"General Du!" shouted from above.

Du Yuting turned a deaf ear and split a huge boulder in half with another knife...

"General Du, Mr. Lin from Jingcheng is here!"

Chi! A huge piece of giant stone slammed over with strong winds, directly hitting Lin Su's position. It seemed that he did it unintentionally while practicing his sword, but Lin Su could clearly feel the anger contained in it.

The generals were shocked. This stone can also be a capital crime. Whether you intend it or not, attacking the superior officer in the capital is a capital crime!

Just as the stone was about to hit Lin Su, Lin Su suddenly stretched out his hand, fist!

boom!

The boulder that hit him shattered!

All the generals were stunned by this move, including those around Lin Su.

With his literary skills, the boulder obviously couldn't hurt him. However, he didn't use his literary skills, but just used his fist. When he hit it with his fist, the boulder shattered. This was obviously not in line with his gentle and literary image.

Lin Su flicked his hand lightly, and the stone powder in front of him fell down one after another.

Du Yuting's sword was standing on the ground below, and his messy hair was flying. Through the flying hair, his bloodshot eyes were staring at Lin Su.

This was the first time he looked directly at Lin Su.

"General Du, I am Lin Su, and Li Xiaotian is my brother!"

Du Yuting's whole body was shaken, and he choked, and the black iron sword in his hand, which weighed a hundred kilograms, fell on the bluestone...

"General Du, you have suffered!" Lin Su jumped down: "I will treat your injury for you!"

He put his hand on Du Yuting's shoulder, and the rejuvenation was like spring water flowing into Du Yuting's body. Du Yuting stared at him with a pair of bull's eyes for a long time, and finally said dryly: "Mr. Lin, you are finally here!"

After talking about it, his throat was choked with sobs.

"Have a good night's rest and we'll talk in detail tomorrow!"

Du Yuting slowly sat down and closed his eyes.

Lin Su sat next to him, surrounded by a bunch of people.

Zhang Haoran said: "I see there are a lot of wounded people. How about we, brothers, temporarily serve as military doctors tonight and treat their injuries?"

"Walk!"
