Chapter 1206: A Big Win Overnight
Without waiting for Jiang Lishui's announcement, He Lingchuan appeared in high spirits, smiled at the visitor and said, "Why are you here, Brother Situ? It's time to recuperate."
Situ He's injury has been properly treated, but it will not heal overnight, especially after the effect of the medicine wears off, and the severed finger will hurt like hell. Ordinary people have to rest at home right now, but he insisted on coming over in person regardless of the fatigue.
"You have helped me save my life. How can Situ He neglect my benefactor?" Situ He got off his horse and bowed to He Lingchuan. "I won't say thank you for your kindness. From now on, whenever Brother He has an assignment, Situ Wan will die without hesitation!"
If He Lingchuan hadn't arrived in time, he would have been tortured to death by the ghost king's clone.
"If I can't save Brother Situ, it will be my biggest regret." He Lingchuan helped him up and said, "Did your family come home with a great victory last night?"
Dong Rui followed behind, curling his lips in disgust.
This guy won't be back until tomorrow. He dared to bet the entire Alfalfa Island. He Lingchuan must have been there to watch the battle, and now he was still pretending to ask if he won the battle.
"Congratulations to my brother!" Situ He's face was pale, and the dark circles under his eyes were particularly obvious, and his eyes were all bloodshot. But he didn't care about being tired at the moment, "As soon as I returned to camp, my father first made a plan to lure the Pixia people out of their cave, and then led troops to sneak attack on Baijian Town. The other party didn't expect that we would dare to ignore Juju City and go raid their lair. Hence the great victory!”
The battle that night was fierce but fast. Situ Yu took advantage of the situation and defeated the enemy in one fell swoop.
"The Pixia people in Baijian Town suffered more than a thousand casualties, and we also captured more than 300 prisoners of war." This was a great success, Situ He beamed, "We recaptured Baijian Town before dawn, and my father sent troops to pursue us. The remnants of the Bixia people, don’t let them escape to Jucheng!”
The Situ family has always wanted to take back Jucheng, but now they have no intention of taking back Baijian Town.
This is also a great joy to boost people's hearts, especially now that they have lost two battles in a row and their morale is low.
Of course He Lingchuan extended congratulations.
After watching the Battle of White Point Town last night, he also breathed a sigh of relief. The Situ family will win more battles and stabilize their territory, which will be very beneficial to themselves and the development of the Yangshan Islands here.
He Lingchuan was undoubtedly more willing to deal with the Situ family than the Bixia people.
Situ He said again: "Father has returned to Yaopo, and I would like to invite Brother He to come over to see me and express my gratitude again!"
Of course the Situ family wanted to reward the savior.
All in all, last night's victory was all due to He Lingchuan rescuing Situ He, which allowed Situ Yu to attack the Vixia people without any scruples.
The Situ family inherited this cause and effect, so they naturally wanted to repay He Lingchuan.
"General Situ is too polite." He Lingchuan said politely, and as soon as he turned around, he asked someone to bring over two horses for him and Dong Rui to ride on.
Following Situ He towards Yao Slope, He Lingchuan slowly asked:
"Fu Liushan probably also went to Jucheng to rescue you. Is he back now?"
"I'm back. I came back after dawn." Situ He remembered Fu Liushan's expression when he saw him in the camp and couldn't help coughing twice. "I can get out of trouble. Master Fu is happy but also a little depressed."
"It's me, Meng Lang. There are still evil spirits in Jucheng. He is a professional heavenly master. It is easier to deal with evil spirits." He Lingchuan did not mention the difficulty of the rescue last night.
But Situ He is a man who understands: "The Bixia people can make so many arrangements outside the city, and the traps inside the city must be more sophisticated. Brother He and Master Fu are willing to take risks to save me, and the Situ family will remember it!"
"I originally thought that Fu Liushan was just an ordinary Celestial Master." Now that I think about it, Fu Liushan is walking on the Shining Gold Plains. His identity as a Celestial Master is very useful.
"My father asked him for help before. After the collapse of the country, Master Fu was very sympathetic to our plight, so he helped us." Situ He said, "But he is not from our country, he is just eager for justice."
The soul-capturing mirror hummed twice: "It turns out he is nosy, just like my master."
Having said this, Situ He's face darkened slightly: "If General Qi can have my luck, his life or death will not be uncertain."
"General Qi?"
"Gaopu's old general, Qi Tianbo, was also my father's close friend and junior fellow student. Before Gaopu's kingdom was destroyed, he fought to the point of exhaustion to defend the capital. Unfortunately, he was captured and imprisoned in Songjun Prison. My father wanted to send someone to rescue him, but the result was... After asking around, I found out that General Qi was sent away the night before. No news could be found for a month. My father was sad, but he had no choice but to give up. "It is said that Songjun Prison executes prisoners on death row in the middle of the night." "
He bowed to He Lingchuan again: "Thanks to Brother He for the timely rescue, otherwise I would have followed General Qi's footsteps."
"Brothers, let's not say thank you anymore." He Lingchuan changed the subject, "Tell me now, why is your portrait posted on the wall of the Vixia people?"
Situ He smiled bitterly: "I originally had three years left to study at Lingxu Imperial College. Unexpectedly, there was a change in the Heavenly Palace two years ago. Lingxu City ordered us to end our studies and deported us early."
He Lingchuan nodded: "Just like brothers Dou Wenguan and Dou Wuxing."
The Dou brothers who stayed in the Yangshan Islands had no choice but to leave because Lingxu City was expelling people.
Thinking of Dou Wenguan, He Lingchuan's heart moved again. This guy is very talkative. Things have been quiet around Yangshan recently, and there is nothing to be diplomatic about. It's time to arrange a new job for him.
"Yes, that year Lingxu City drove out a lot of people, not only a large number of students, but also merchants from many countries." Situ He said, "As far as I know, hundreds of people from the Shining Gold Plain were driven out, and some of them had even been officials in Lingxu for many years, but they were also expelled. Only a small number of those who were driven out went to other countries, and most of them came back."
He Lingchuan was a little ashamed. His act of burning the Heavenly Palace changed the fate of countless people. "How many people like you came back?"
"I know about three or four hundred people, and there are even more people I don't know." The Shining Gold Plain is so big, how many people here study abroad and work in Beijia, how could he know? "Those who can go to Lingxu City from the Shining Gold Plain are at least famous families in the local area, with connections and connections. After they leave Beijia, most of them can only come back here."
It's better to go back to my hometown than to go somewhere else.
Situ He told his own story again: "Not long after I came back, Pixia suddenly declared war on my hometown Gaopu. The whole country hastily responded to the war and persisted for more than half a year, and finally..."
He sighed.
"My father had been resisting the enemy on the northern front. Soon after, he learned that the capital had been captured, so he had to retreat to his territory and continue to defend. Pisha sent us two ultimatums, but we tore them up both times, and it got angry."
"Why don't you surrender?" He Lingchuan asked him based on the facts, "The country is gone."
Ministers whose countries were destroyed either surrendered or established themselves. Only a few chose to commit suicide.
