Chapter 97 A thousand miles away from Yong Kai

Outside Dianchi County, Yong Mian, the patriarch of the Yong family in Yizhou County, looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes widened, his teeth making a buzzing sound as he clenched his teeth in anger, and his eyes burst out with uncontrollable murderous intent.

In front of him, he saw several objects that were burned into charcoal by flames and stacked together. But after careful analysis, you can still see what these objects are. They were built by Yong Mian who spent a lot of manpower and material resources during this period. Chao chariots and ladders prepared to attack Dianchi County.

"What a waste." Yong Mian cursed angrily in his heart and glanced at Qu Shuai Tu'an, who was lying on the ground with a knife in his chest and abdomen, and his intestines were exposed. He was already dead and could not die anymore.

There was some regret in his heart. He regretted that he should not have agreed to Tu An's request a few days ago. This regret was like a poisonous snake biting his heart.

During this period, he won over the powerful Meng family and received their full help. Relying on the Meng family's prestige among the Soyi people in Yizhou County, he attracted many Souyi Qushuai and their troops to come to conspire with them. Among them Including Tu An, who is now a dead body, the Qu Commander who led more than a thousand old people from Tu Shui, Yizhou County.

Since most of the Qushuai of Soyi in Yizhou County brought about a few hundred troops, Tu An, as the Qushuai of Tu Shuiyi, came with more than a thousand people. At the same time, Tu An looked very good. He has a burly body, a ferocious face, and a brave and warlike temperament, so he won the favor of Yong Mian.

A few days ago, when Tu An gathered a group of people in Yongmian for discussion, he heard that the powerful tools for siege, such as chariots and ladders, had been built. He was belligerent and immediately asked Yongmian to fight, hoping to be the first to attack the city.

At that time, in public, Yong Mian naturally could not refute Tu An's words, not to mention that people like Tu An who came forward to ask for war should be encouraged, so Yong Mian handed over the chariot and ladder to Tu An, and he would be responsible for it in the future. Tu Shuiyi was the first to attack the city.

I just didn't expect that that night, the governor of Yizhou County, Gao Yi, who had always relied on the city to defend the city and had never sent a single soldier out of the city to invite a battle, accidentally took some wrong medicine and suddenly sent troops to attack Tu An's camp. They burned the siege weapons that had taken a long time to build, such as the chariot and the ladder, and at the same time killed Tu An, the commander-in-chief of Tu Shuiyi.

Faced with the current situation, Yong Mian felt nothing but regret, regret that he should not have agreed to let Tu An be the first to ascend, and regret that he should not have handed over the chariot and ladder to Tu An. He was also angry. Angry at Tu An's incompetence. The men sent by Gao Yi so easily broke through the camp and burned the chariot and ladder.

Now he wished he could give Tu An a thousand lashes with a whip, and then cut Tu An into pieces with a thousand cuts, but now that everyone in Tu An was dead, his thoughts were useless.

Yong Kai, who was beside Yong Mian, noticed his father's displeasure and anger. Then Yong Kai glanced at the surrounding Soyi Qushuai and keenly observed the looks that these Soyi Qushuai sent to his father Yong Mian. He didn't stay too much on Yong Mian's face, but looked at it casually from time to time. But every time it fell on Yong Mian's face, it was a thoughtful look.

Yong Kai probably guessed something. These Soyi Qushuai wanted to know what his father Yong Mian thought of Tu An, and to learn Yong Mian's treatment of Tu An. Tu An was a Yiren Qushuai, and these Soyi Qushuai treated him empathize with the experience.

He coughed and said to Yong Mian: "Father, Tu Shuai was an upright man. It is a pity that Tu Shuai was harmed by Xiaoxiao in Dianchi City. He should be buried with dignity as a condolence."

"Huh?" After hearing this, Yong Mian found it difficult to accept it and made a questioning voice. Tu An, a waste, built a fort without arranging people to keep watch. It was not only his own life that was lost, but so many nests were lost. Cars and ladders delayed the date of capturing Dianchi County. It was really not a pity to die, and death was inevitable.

But the words of his Qianliju Yongkai actually asked him to bury Tu An properly. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yongkai, and met Yongkai's eyes, and saw a hint in Yongkai's eyes.He had no choice but to put down his doubts and nodded, as if he recognized Yong Kai's statement. His expression changed from anger and regret to pity, and he looked at Tu An lying on the ground and said with regret.

"I originally wanted to achieve great things with Tu Shuai, but I didn't expect that Tu Shuai was killed in the middle. If the two armies were in a confrontation, I would naturally have nothing to say. It's just that Gao Yi from Dianchi County sent people to make a sneak attack at night. Such despicable methods , it’s really hateful.”

He knew that these Soyi people in Nanzhong despised those who resorted to tricks and sneak attacks, and most respected warriors who were good at conquering and fighting fiercely. Therefore, he said these words to inflame Soyi Qu's handsome temper. The next moment, As if he was irritated, he gritted his teeth and declared loudly.

"Today I will bury Commander Tu alive, and tomorrow the whole army will go out to attack Dianchi County."

"Promise." All the old and foreign soldiers responded graciously to Yong Mian's decision.
-
At night, Yong's army was in the tent.

"Tu An's arrogant man is really hateful. I thought he was brave, and he stood out among all the handsome men. But I didn't expect him to be so unbearable. Not only did he cost his own life, but he also ruined the whole country." The nest car and ladder we worked so hard to build.”

"It's better now. Without the nest cart and ladder, it will take an unknown amount of time to rebuild. If we don't rebuild it, it will take an unknown amount of time to capture Dianchi County."

Yong Mian looked indignant and cursed Tu An, who was buried by him.

"Father, although Tu An was incompetent, he was the one who led the army to help us after all. Now that he has died, we should bury him generously and must do so. Otherwise, other Soyi Qushuai will feel chilled when they see it. By then, these Qushuai will be four points Let's disperse and go back to our respective homes. It will be difficult for us to succeed this time." Yong Kai persuaded Yong Mian to calm down the anger in Yong Mian's heart.

"Eh." Yong Mian was helpless, sighed, and accepted Yong Kai's words. Tu An made a big mistake, but he died for the Yong family after all, and he could not be treated harshly no matter what.

He looked at Yong Kai with some relief, the most outstanding son of his sons. As a father, he was just angry at Tu An's treatment and wanted to whip Tu An's body and then kill him, but Yong Kai knew that he needed to be buried well. Tu An, trying to appease Soyi Qushuai, thought that his son was really extraordinary.

Yong Mian made a decision in his heart. Sooner or later, the Yong family's inheritance would be handed over to Yong Kai's hands, and only if it was handed over to Yong Kai's hands could he feel at ease.

Burying this idea in his heart, Yong Mian talked about an annoying matter, which was also the news he had just received: "The news came from Gaoyuan, the king of Yi in Yueqi County, saying that batch after batch of soldiers had been detected arriving in Jianwei. The county's Bodao County is currently recuperating in Bodao County, and I'm afraid it will go south soon."
