too affectionate

Chapter 171
The Annan thieves have invaded our country, and have seized the four prefectures of Qinzhou, Wuzhou, Xunzhou, and Taiping.

Now the Annan thieves are still advancing towards the interior of Tianquan, Sien Military and Civilian Mansion and Qingyuan Mansion are already approaching the city, and the situation is imminent.

If the above two prefectures are breached again, the Zhili Prefecture of Ningyang, where the chief envoy of Suizhou is located, will fall into the hands of thieves, and the consequences will be disastrous!
Due to the urgent situation, Lord Luan and I rushed to Suizhou for support first. Please forgive me for not being able to wait for the two adults.

I hope the two adults will come to support you if the situation permits after reading this letter!

Sapphire. "

In this short letter, there are almost exclamation marks in every sentence, and every sentence is fatal!

"broken!"

After reading the letter, Wanyan immediately slapped her thigh and shouted that it was not good.

Although Heng Li didn't speak, when he read the letter, his brows were tightly frowned.

Suizhou is located in the southwestern border of Tianquan Kingdom, bordering on the Annan clan.

Although Suizhou is relatively remote, it has been coveted by Annan for a long time because of its rich products, especially a variety of ores.

But in the past, Annan just made a fuss at the border, but he didn't expect that this time, he would drive straight in so arrogantly.

Wanyan and Hengli never imagined that the situation in the mainland would be so precarious after they left for just over two months.

Wanyan's small face wrinkled into a ball, and her heart swayed up and down hugely, the joy and excitement just now were gone.

Although Wanyan has long had the ambition to serve the country, she just waits for the east wind to come.

But when the real war came, Wanyan still couldn't restrain the tension in her heart.

Especially those few words: people are devastated, no one is spared, it is really shocking.

We must know that the four prefectures of Qinzhou, Wuzhou, Xunzhou, and Taipingfu have vast land, rich resources, beautiful scenery, and many people.

Although the border is often harassed by the Annan vassals, fortunately, they are small fights for money and property. Even if there were a few large-scale conflicts, General Lin Yifeng, the commander of the Annan capital at that time, was in charge, and the Annan people came a few times. Call back several times.

However, it is such a treasure land of outstanding people, and now it is necessary to describe it with the words "living in charcoal". Just seeing this word makes Wanyan feel shocking, and she doesn't even need to imagine the local scene at this moment.

And Zhili Prefecture in Ningyang has hundreds of thousands of people. If it is broken by thieves, the consequences will be disastrous!
Thinking about it, Wanyan's anger surged up, sweeping away her nervousness.

I am worried that there is no way to serve the country. Now my country is being violated and my people are being bullied.
The angry Wanyan didn't notice that Heng Li beside her was still frowning slightly, with a calm expression on her face.

But in fact, Heng Li's eyes had condensed into a sharp blade covered with frost, cold and sharp.

Annan is really daring to create chaos under the eyes of his deity and openly disturb the order of the world!

The old man saw that the faces of the two young people were relaxed just now, but after reading the letter, one of them was full of anger, and the other was holding back his anger. He couldn't help asking strangely, "Why, did something important happen?"

The old man had already left home on the boat when Sapphire and the others left in a hurry that day, and he hasn't come home for a few days now, so he doesn't know what happened in the county town.

Wanyan clutched the letter and said word by word: "The four prefectures of Qinzhou, Wuzhou, Xunzhou, and Taiping were occupied by the Annan thieves, who destroyed the houses and slaughtered the city."

Anger was burning between the lines, and Wanyan's eyes were burning red.

There was a crisp "clap", and as Wanyan's words fell, the wooden oar in the old man's hand dropped out and hit the boat.

"What did you say!!"

Above the empty sea, the heart-piercing roar of the old man echoed within a radius of tens of miles.

After saying a word, the corners of the old man's eyes were almost cracked, and the blood red color had already covered the fundus of his eyes.

Wanyan immediately realized that she had said something wrong in her anger. Since the place where they boarded the boat was Qinzhou, then this old man should be...from Qinzhou!

If according to what Lan Yu said, no Annan people were spared wherever they went, then the old man's family also...

Wanyan felt very regretful, and couldn't help but slapped her mouth, which couldn't hold the door.

And the old man had completely lost his soul, his eyes were fixed on the bow of the boat blankly, like a sculpture, completely letting the boat fend for itself in the waves.

But this person whose spirit has been instantly crushed by the great pain was so happy a few minutes ago that he couldn't help sharing it with them, because he earned 50 taels of gold and could end his decades of punting career in the vast expanse of wind and rain , can end the days when the wife works hard every night under the weak candlelight, and can let the grandson study.

Everything is so beautiful.

But for the old man who has been miserable all his life, his good days have just begun, but they are destroyed in an instant, even shattering his original life.

Just taking a look at the old man who was stunned at the bow of the boat, but the veins on his forehead could be seen bulging one by one, Wanyan felt her heart ache like a knife.

However, the old man is just an insignificant smiling silhouette in this man-made disaster, where thousands of homes were ruined and people died, and thousands of times of sudden collapse.

In today's Suizhou, there are countless such tragedies.

"Grandpa, you..." Wanyan said cautiously, knowing that the old man's family might be in trouble, but she still lied in good faith: "Don't worry too much.

No one is spared here is just an exaggeration. There are so many people in Suizhou, just one slap on each person, and they all slap the Annan people into a sieve.

Besides, the Annan people want to occupy our territory and expand their territory. There must be casualties, but more people must be safe. After all, the Annan people don’t want to occupy a wasteland full of corpses! "

The old man came back to his senses for a while, and when she turned her head back, Wanyan found that the old man's face full of the marks of time was already full of tears.

Wanyan sighed lightly and stopped speaking, she knew that what she said was useless.

The old man just stood at the bow of the boat in response to the arrogant sea wind, and shed hot tears into the sea. The precipitation of the years made him forget how to cry loudly, but a silhouette as desolate as a withered leaf is enough to write down all the pain.

Wanyan and Hengli were originally anxious to rush to the battlefield, but at this time, in the cabin that had been spinning around in place, they were all quietly and patiently waiting for the old man.

Who doesn't know how hard it is for a boatman to go out to sea once and never return.

After an unknown amount of time, the old man bowed his body tremblingly, picked up the oars with trembling hands like a sieve, but tremblingly, he had no strength to support the boat.
