Gu Yanxi rested for a while, but the uneasiness in her heart still did not subside.

At this time, he thought of Li Muge.

Although Zi is silent and strange, but he cares about the safety of the one he loves, and he can't allow him to care about his rationality.

He hurriedly repaired a book, and he immediately sent someone to the front line.

Even if he laughed at him for making a fuss, he would admit it.

Sitting in the big tent, Li Muge was holding the "medicine" sent by Luo Qiuli's messenger, with a hint of complexity in his eyes.

Although he didn't want to embarrass Nangong Jing, the superior is doomed to be selfless, and most of the time he can only make the most correct decision, and this decision cannot depend on anyone, not even himself.

If he burst the embankment and flooded the city, the capital of Chu would never be submissively accepted by the state of Xi like the capital of Jin.

Once the flood flooded into the city, the army of Xi was the culprit who caused the destruction of the people in the city.This kind of personal hatred will definitely make Chu people fight with their lives and resist desperately.

Therefore, cutting the weeds must remove the roots in order to eliminate future troubles forever.

Therefore, everyone in the city must die.

This city must also be slaughtered!

Calling all the generals to the tent, Li Muge briefly explained his meaning to them.

After hearing this, all the people present had a flash of astonishment in their eyes, but seeing Li Muge's uncompromising expression, all the astonishment turned into ruthlessness in an instant.

They are soldiers, they have been soldiers all their lives.There is compassion, but in the face of war, that kind of compassion is not worth mentioning at all.If everyone has compassion for all living beings, why should they wear this battle armor?Simply shave or become a monk.

Peng Yun and Qingyu knelt on the ground and shouted: Your Majesty is wise.

State your position first.

The other generals followed suit.

For a moment, the shouts in the tent were deafening, and the murderous aura was soaring!

In the midst of endless calls, Li Muge stood up.Facing the generals in front of him, he said loudly: "The Vietnamese army has crossed the border of Chu State, and the situation is urgent! Therefore, our army must capture the capital of Chu tonight. In this battle, victory means life, and defeat means death!"

With his words, he has shown all the pros and cons of life and death to the generals——Furthermore, the sea and the sky are bright.Take a step back, and there will be no redemption.

On this point, he neither exaggerated nor alarmist.

After the generals heard this, they naturally understood the stakes, and everyone had a look of fear on their faces.

Step over!

As long as you cross this obstacle tonight, wealth, glory and fame will surely come one after another!

The "medicine" produced by Nangong Jing according to Li Muge's request is naturally extraordinary.

As long as this "medicine" is sprinkled into the water, it can infect the entire water area without waiting. Moreover, the medicine is extremely effective and will not be rapidly diluted as the amount of water increases.

So, while the black powder was poured into the river, the soldiers began to break the embankment.

It was night, with thick clouds, no stars and no moon.

Before it was too late, there was a sudden earth-shattering roar in the darkness, and then, almost at the same time, three monstrous waves rolled towards the sleeping capital of Chu State.

But the soldiers on duty at the top of the city didn't react, they just felt their figures shake, and the city wall under their feet began to collapse slowly.

At this time, everyone began to issue a warning to the city, but the water was so fast that the voice had just been shouted, but it was quickly covered by the rolling waves.

Exclamations and screams began to resound in Chudu.

The shorter thatched huts collapsed in an instant after being hit by the flood, and the people in the huts may have been asleep forever in a dream before they woke up.Although the slightly stronger wooden and brick houses did not collapse immediately, they were all crumbling in the water.

The whole city was destroyed in an instant.

And the palace in Chudu was even more chaotic.

The palace people fled in all directions, and the royal family were scared out of their wits.

The guards in charge of guarding were even more at a loss.

Everything came too suddenly, after all, just a few hours ago they received the good news that the Vietnamese reinforcements had crossed the border.The King of Chu also said to the officials proudly: "He just said that he can't stick to this trick, and it won't work against the menacing Xi army!"

But at this moment, he could only climb up the tall building with a pale face, trembling with fear.

A flood flooded this once prosperous city, and it was completely changed in an instant.

Li Muge stood on the high ground outside the city, looking forward expressionlessly, his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, as cold as ice.

The night wind was silent, whizzing past his black battle armor, and blowing the bright fiery cloak behind him, as if a smear of blood was painted on the black curtain.

He could imagine the tragic situation in the city at this time, but he could only say: The nightmare has just begun.Tomorrow, after the sun rises, the night will continue.

He suddenly understood Gu Yanxi's previous state of mind.

Good and evil, black and white, in this world, it has long been impossible to distinguish clearly.In the current general situation, no one is qualified to talk about peace in the world with a clean body, and no one has the position to say that he is absolutely right or absolutely wrong.

The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit!

To be soft-hearted to others is to be absolutely cruel to oneself.

Therefore, if everything he has done to him has nothing to do with love, there is actually no fault at all.

Even if it had anything to do with love, he himself suffered from it.

At this time, Qingyu boarded the high ground and sent a letter to Li Muge.

When Li Muge saw the name on the lower right corner of the envelope, the heaviness that had always been in his heart couldn't help but eased a little.

After reading the letter from Zhan, a few words have already made his eyebrows gradually relaxed.The coldness in the bottom of the eyes melted a little unconsciously.

Qingyu stood at the side, dumbfounded, and had a little more speculation about the relationship between her master and Gu Yanxi in her heart.

Actually, Gu Yanxi didn't say anything in this letter.He just blindly told Li Muge to be careful and pay attention to safety.

But in Li Muge's eyes, it was his out-and-out care and miss for him.

It is said that the moonlight can be seen when the clouds open, but he never thought that the moonlight after the clouds opened can illuminate people's hearts like this.

On the second day, the flood receded.

The surviving people, seeing the soaked food in their homes, suddenly felt sad.

Now at this time, it is okay to say that there is no gold, silver and money, but how can they live without food?

However, before they could worry about food, a huge plague had already spread in the city.

It is not known who was the first to develop the disease, but before the people around him noticed, that person was foaming at the mouth and died on the spot.

The Xi army outside the city continued to build embankments, planning to launch a second wave of offensive.

Flooding, hunger, disease... In just two days, the entire Chudu was covered.

The city was full of starvation and corpses littered the fields.The palace of Da Chu has also become lifeless.

The king of Chu died of illness, and the princes fought to kill each other.Concubines and palace people fled in all directions.

I don't know who opened the gate of Chudu first, and then thousands of refugees rushed out of the city.It's just that they had just escaped from this dead city, and they were beheaded by the Xi army waiting outside the city.

Li Muge said: To cut grass, you must get rid of the root, so as to avoid future troubles forever!Therefore, the people in the city must die.This city must also be slaughtered.

I saw with my own eyes a seven or eight-year-old boy's blood spattered on the spot, his round head rolled a few times on the ground and stopped at his feet, but the fear in his eyes was still alive.Li Muge's footsteps did not stop at all, his black combat boots stepped on his fear indifferently, and continued to move forward.

It's just that the hands hanging by the sides are tightly clenched into fists.

The Vietnamese army, which was halfway there, stopped their advance immediately after receiving the news from Chudu.

Although Chudu has not been formally captured, it is no different from a dead city.

Even if they continue to advance now, they will not be able to save in time.But if it is just this class teacher, it is really difficult to explain to the country.If one day Xi's army attacked Yue, they would definitely be condemned by the whole country because of the failure of this aid.

General Zhao Qing, who is in charge of leading the army this time, is in trouble in the tent.

At this time, the envoy of Chu State who had been sent to Yue State for help asked to see him.

After walking into Changnai, he fell to his knees with a "plop" and begged with grief and indignation on his face: "My lord, my home was trampled and completely destroyed by those thieves. The hatred of the country and the family, the pain of the skin, I hope the general can understand One or two, continue to send troops to seek justice for us."

Zhao Qing fell silent after hearing this, obviously not wanting to put himself in danger.

When the envoy of Chu State saw him, he burst into tears and shouted in a hissed voice: "General, if Chu State is destroyed, Yue State must be in danger. The so-called death of lips and cold teeth, if you stand on the sidelines, there is no guarantee that Yue State will fall to Chu State today." end."

Zhao Qing's face turned serious, and he shouted: "Bold, you who have subjugated the country, how dare you curse me to go to the country?"

The envoy of Chu State sneered, and speculatively said: "Whether it is a curse or the truth, the general knows very well."

Zhao Qing's face became even more gloomy when he heard this: "Of course the general knew it in his heart, but now that the capital of Chu has fallen and the general situation is over, I think Master Qi is more clear in his heart."

Envoy Qi Jun had a look of determination in his eyes, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Although the capital of Chu is destroyed, the cities to the east of Chu State and adjacent to the State of Yue have not yet been contributed. I can lead the generals to take over these cities, and then fight with Xi A war against thieves." If going abroad is doomed to perish, he would rather hand it over to the hands of Yue Yue than hand it over to the brutal Xi State.

Zhao Qing's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this: "Lord Qi, are you serious?" If so, he would have won most of the territory of Yue State for Yue without a single soldier.This kind of credit, I don't know how many military exploits can be obtained by desperately fighting.

"Of course, what the old man said is not false."

"Good! Good! Good! If Master Qi can follow his words, he will fight to the end with the bandits Xi." Xu said the conditions were too tempting, and Zhao Qing had already forgotten that Qi Jun was just sent by the state of Chu. How can a mere envoy persuade the guards in the cities of Chu?

Of course, Qi Jun didn't have the confidence to persuade these officials. His purpose was just to let the Yue army continue to advance, to the depths of Chu, forcing them to fight to the death with the Xi army.

Since they Chu State is powerless, they can only ask Yue State to help them pay their debts with blood.

Thinking of his wife and children who died tragically in Chudu, his eyes were once again bloodshot with hatred.

Breaking the embankment to release water, spreading the plague, and slaughtering the whole city... Finally, a big fire burned the entire capital of Chu to ashes.

After this battle, the world was shocked.

Not only shocked by the utter tragedy suffered by Chu State, but also shocked by Li Muge's cold-blooded ruthlessness.

Some people are angry, some are contemptuous, some are unbearable, some are sad, but most of them are afraid.

Out of instinctive fear, fear of death.

After Chu State was destroyed, only Dongxiang in the north, Xi State and Yue State in the south remained in the fragmented world.But everyone knows that once the state of Chu is destroyed, the state of Yue will not be far away.

The current state of Xi has won many battles and swept the south.It is the time when the morale is like a rainbow and invincible. I am afraid that no one can compete with it except the great northern country Dongxiang.

But at this moment, Dongxiang didn't move at all.It is also really puzzling.

Gu Yanxi watched Li Muge step by step step by step towards the apex of power, covered in blood, and didn't know how to feel.It's just that when I think of his gentle and affectionate smiling eyes occasionally, I feel distressed.

I still remember that on New Year's Eve not long ago, he still made dumplings for himself with a smirk on his face covered in flour.The fireworks that night were intoxicatingly beautiful, but not as intoxicating as his pair of peach blossoms.

But now, is the old man still there?

Thinking of this, he suddenly started to pack his bags.

Perhaps, he should have gone to his side long ago.

Just as he was packing up and was about to open the door, the door was suddenly pushed open.

He stared dumbfounded at the dilapidated, ashen-faced young man in front of him, all his movements froze instantly, only his brows furrowed unconsciously.

"Master, Xiao Liu... has he come to look for you?" The young man fell to the ground as soon as he opened his mouth.

Gu Yanxi supported him, pulled him into the house, and closed the door.

He didn't know why he was so unsuspecting of this stranger, but his instinct told him he had to.

The originally packed baggage fell on the side of the door, and no one cared about it at this time.

Ji Qishen leaned on the side of the bed, took a few breaths, the eager look on his face did not ease at all, and continued to ask: "Master, do you have any news about Xiao Liu?"

"Master? Little Six?" Gu Yanxi frowned even tighter, and her cold eyes were full of confusion.

Seeing him like this in an instant, Ji Qi suddenly remembered that Gu Yanxi had already lost her memory at this time, and couldn't help but worry about her own stupidity.

"I mean, sir, have you seen a handsome young man recently, or received a message from someone?"

Gu Yanxi shook her head, the confusion in her eyes deepened.

Seeing Ji Qi instantly, despair surged up in his heart, the light in his eyes dimmed, and he muttered to himself in a daze: "Xiao Liu... Xiao Liu... If anything happens to you, I will definitely not let Ji Yiran go!"

At this time, he suddenly grabbed Gu Yanxi's white skirt tightly, raised his head and said, "Master, I'm sorry, I will never let Ji Yiran go this time! I'm sorry..." Even though he said so, there was no apology in his eyes , but the deep-seated hatred burned more and more.

Looking at the face in front of her, and hearing the name "Ji Yiran", Gu Yanxi felt her head hurt again.

And the pain was so bad that he could hardly stand up, and his body was shaking.

So, he staggered and was about to fall to the ground.

Seeing this, Ji Qishun immediately pulled him back.

After Gu Yanxi stopped, her lips curled up slightly, and she bowed to thank him.

Ji Qisun stared at him blankly, his eyes were slightly red, and he murmured: "Master...Master..." At this moment, he didn't know how to ask for help from Gu Yanxi, who was completely unfamiliar to him, but the way forward No matter how difficult it is, he has to keep going.

Seeing Ji Qishun like this, Gu Yanxi felt uncomfortable.

So he felt that he must have known this person before, and his relationship with this person was not ordinary.

He called him "Master" just now, could they be master and apprentice?

But what kind of faction is he?And he obviously doesn't have any martial arts?

Too many doubts, too many puzzles, rushed towards him all at once.

He settled down, walked to the table calmly, and poured a cup of hot tea for the person in front of him.

For the present plan, no matter how many doubts there are, he must first appease the emotions of the person in front of him, and then figure out the reasons why he came to find him in such a embarrassment.
