Chapter 461 Hell on earth only exists in the human heart
"...!"
Yu Wenzhen's eyes flashed slightly, and a look of shock and astonishment flashed across his eyes.
But in the end, the ripples caused by these emotions turned into a smile, flowing from the corners of his eyes, condensing at the corners of his mouth, and then said: "Of course."
Shang Ruyi looked at him again One glance.
She wanted to say something else, but at this moment, a harsh sound of gongs suddenly came from below the tower. Everyone hurriedly turned their heads and looked ahead. It was Xue Xian's men who had begun to withdraw their troops.
This time, he didn't care about attacking the city, or even the people who were still struggling in the sea of fire. This fire had completely shattered his illustrious power that had allowed him to win more than ten battles in Longxi. He didn't expect that he would suffer three defeats in Fufeng, and each defeat would be more tragic. At this time, he could only leave here as soon as possible in order to retain his main force.
So, the sound of Ming Jin withdrawing his troops resounded throughout the Xiaolin River.
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
Xue Xian and his men, as well as the lieutenants around him, also raised their arms and shouted loudly, how could the rest of the troops still be there at this time? Neng Lianzhan, with his body covered in smoke and his face covered with smoke, fled from the fire scene in embarrassment.
When Shang Ruyi saw this scene, his eyes turned redder.
She said in a deep voice: "Keep shooting arrows, splashing water, and chasing!"
The people around were shocked again.
Everyone was in the ecstasy of victory just now, especially when they heard that Xue Xian’s troops had ordered gold to withdraw their troops. This was their great victory. They originally thought it was over, but they didn’t expect——
This general's wife is really "fierce"!
Even Yu Wenzuo looked at her with a surprised expression.
But at this time, no one would question the general's wife's words anymore. Dai Junliang and Yin Changyue, who was cheering with the soldiers beside him, heard her words, only looked at each other, and immediately ordered loudly: "Quickly , the archers continue to attack, you quickly prepare buckets and pour water to put out the fire!"
The soldiers below immediately started to move.
Once again, the dense rain of arrows was like countless lightning bolts, flying across the already darkened sky. The Longxi troops below were hit by the arrows before they could escape, and screams of misery could be heard everywhere; Water was brought up from under the city, and while the archers were shooting arrows, they had time for the soldiers to pour the water down.
Cold water was poured on the almost red-burned earth below, and the sizzling sound was heard endlessly. The hot steam rose up, burning the burned Longxi soldiers until they screamed in agony.
After all, there was nothing to fuel the fire, and the fire finally slowed down.
At this moment, with a low and hoarse cry, the Fufeng City Gate slowly opened.
A gust of hot wind hit us.
The soldiers lined up at the city gate felt their skins burning hot, as if their hairs were about to burn. But at this time, this blazing temperature not only did not drive them back, but instead aroused the anger in everyone's hearts. Got it The depression of several days and the anger of the Fufeng defeat a few days ago, in which more than 80,000 people were killed, combined with the hot wind blowing around them, igniting the anger in their hearts. When they saw the Longxi Army in front of them who had begun to flee in embarrassment, that The anger finally burst out.
An order came from the tower——
"Kill!"
The soldiers were like tigers coming out of the gate, roaring and rushing forward one by one. Although the ground was still hot and there were even small clusters of flames that had not been extinguished, they could no longer stop them at this time. They, these people brandished the swords in their hands, stepped on the red-burned land and the charred bones of Longxi Army officers and soldiers, and rushed towards the evacuating soldiers and horses in front.
For a time, the Longxi Army was also in chaos. They had been burned by the fire and fled, and they were even suppressed by a hail of arrows. They thought they could escape by evacuating, but they didn't expect that Fufeng's generals would not give them any chance to breathe. , At this time, the pursuit will continue.
But they can no longer organize a large-scale resistance.
These people ran away desperately, completely exposing their backs to each other. They saw streaks of cold light flashing in the night sky, and then blood splattered everywhere and screams continued.
They fled into Xiaolin River.
And this time, it was even more desperate.
The pontoon bridge across the river was built several miles away. It was also because it was built so far that the soldiers sent by Fufeng could not detect it, so they were allowed to cross the river smoothly and lurk in this dense forest. But now, It has also become their absolute The soldiers who fled into the river had no way to escape and could only struggle and writhe in the cold river water. The people behind could not see the way forward clearly, so they pushed the people in front into the river again, and were blocked by the people struggling in the river. He wanted to turn back, but the sword behind him was already in front of him.
The desperate cries and the terrified screams before death resounded throughout the night sky.
……
By the time everything calmed down, it was almost dawn.
Shang Ruyi has been standing on the tower, motionless looking at the tragic scene in front of her. Even if the night is deep and the darkness engulfs everything, she can clearly see the Xiaolin River in the distance being gradually destroyed. Stained red.
The red color also dyed into her eyes.
Until the east, the white color of fish belly gradually appeared, the hot land under the city tower finally cooled down, and the soldiers who were pursuing the victory slowly returned to the outside of the city gate.
They donated blood one by one and suffered many injuries, but the excitement on their faces and the satisfaction in their hearts could not be eliminated by the pain and exhaustion. When they looked up again, the sun had already Gradually rising, all the light seemed to focus on the slender figure on the tower at this moment.
The admiration and respect in everyone's eyes were also lit up by the sunshine.
Someone whispered: "Mrs. Shang...Thanks to this general's wife."
"I didn't expect that a woman would-" "Who said women can't fight? If not She, we really did it this time We can’t win.”
“Mrs. Shang, she is the daughter of the hussar general who split the Turks back then! Compared to those few, she is so powerful. Gone.”
Everyone became more and more excited as they talked. Some people even raised the bloody sword in their hands and shouted loudly: "Thank you, Mrs. Shang!"
This sound seemed to ignite the passionate emotions in everyone's hearts again. More and more people shouted "Thank you so much" "Mrs. Shang", "Thank you, Mrs. Shang", these voices finally converged into deafening cheers -
"Mrs. Shang!"
"Mrs. Shang!" "Mrs. Shang!"
The overwhelming cheers instantly caused the Xiaolin River in front of them to set off blood-red waves. Shang Ruyi was also a little shocked. He opened his eyes wide and looked at the cheering people below.
This scene is not unfamiliar.
She vaguely remembered that when she followed Yu Wenye into the Taiyuan camp for the first time and competed with Huang Gongyi in arrows, although she lost, she won the title of lieutenant general in the army because she was magnanimous and lost gloriously. They cheered and even won Yu Wenye's respect.
Unexpectedly, at this moment -
At this moment, the calm and cold murderous intention that had been lingering in my heart all night was finally dispelled by the cheers of those people below the city tower. Shang Ruyi The condensed expression was also melted away, replaced by a joyful smile.
But this time, she did not raise the strong bow in her hand as before, and responded to the cheers of the crowd.
On the contrary, the smile quickly disappeared deep in his eyes, replaced by a calmer expression than when he just watched the soldiers kill the enemy.
She raised her hand and pressed it down slightly to signal everyone to calm down the excitement in their hearts. Then she turned around and said to Dai Junliang, Yin Changyue and others who were also happy around them: "My lords, "
Everyone stepped forward immediately: "What else do you have to say, madam?"
At this time, Song Yu and Ma Xu looked a little surprised on their faces. and anger.
You must know that in the army, the general's wife does not have any real power. She should not even come to the army to give advice, let alone order the supervisors and generals. But now, everyone thinks that this wife is following her lead, but on the contrary The two of them, the Fufeng guard general and the marching general manager, were not only ignored, but even the soldiers passing by didn't even look at them.
However, both of them were speechless.
After all, in the military, strength and victory are capital. After this battle, everyone understood the energy of the general's wife, and even directly regarded her words as orders.
However, facing the attitude of everyone, Shang Ruyi was very cautious. She leaned forward and cupped her hands, and then said: "I don't dare to tell you, but even if you win this battle, you can't be careless."
< br>“Yes.”
"Clean the battlefield, and then return to the official office immediately."
"..."
"I still have something to say!"
Everyone was a little shocked when they heard this. , I don’t know what else she has at this time He had to go back to the official office to explain, but no one dared to neglect it. Dai Junliang hurriedly ordered the people below the city tower to leave the city immediately to clean up the battlefield. He also hurriedly asked people to drive the carriage that the lady came in to the city tower, and immediately called everyone Follow her back to the official office.
When leaving the tower, Shang Ruyi looked back again.
Although the sun has just risen, the sunlight has already illuminated the large scorched black land below. The number of scorched corpses was so densely packed that it was almost impossible to see. In the Xiaolin River in front, there were even more waves of blood, countless The corpses were floating above, and the scene was nothing short of a hell on earth.
But she knew it very well.
The real hell on earth often only exists in the human heart.
In this way, the remaining soldiers began to clean up the battlefield, and a group of people had already followed the general's wife's carriage and headed east in the rising sun. After passing the cheers of countless people, they returned to the official office. .
This time, Shang Ruyi is at the forefront.
Dai Junliang, Yin Changyue, and Shan Tong'er followed closely behind. When Song Yu and Ma Xu saw this scene, they became more and more dissatisfied. It seemed that Shang Ruyi was the master of Fufeng City. The two of them looked at each other, and Song Yu said coldly: "We are tired. If there is nothing to do, we will go down and take a rest first-"
Shang Ruyi stopped before he finished speaking. .
“No one can leave.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Nie Chong and Mu Xian, who had just returned to the official office, came forward with a few soldiers. , directly blocked in front of Ma and Song. The two were startled and turned to look at Shang Ruyi. They saw her holding her hands behind her back and slowly turning back to look at him.
The eyes, which seemed to be stained red by blood all night long, still showed a heavy murderous aura at this moment.
"I said, I have something to say."
