Tang Dynasty: After dominating Rome, I counterattacked Chang'an

Chapter 17 King Qin, they are back!

His burning desire to fight made his sword look extremely ferocious.

Commander Wang even felt that his sword was moving faster than in his prime.

However, this violent sword,

Although Pei Xingjian was absent-minded, he had already seen it all.

He is the raiding general of the Great Yan Empire.

What is a raid?

Rush to the front line and attack the enemy's bloated army with your weak force.

He always does.

He led the troops by example, always rushing to the front in every raid, leading his three thousand Yaoguang soldiers to kill people in all directions.

It has been like this for ten years!
At least a hundred enemy soldiers died at his hands.

This also makes him a strong personal fighter.

Among the seven generals of the stars,

Pei Xingjian's personal fighting power can definitely be ranked among the top three.

It was for this reason that Pei Xingjian dared to come in alone.

On the other hand, Commander Wang

Over the past ten years, even though Commander Wang practiced sword skills diligently every day and guarded against the other side of the sea, he still lacked actual combat experience.

Moreover, during the past ten years of peaceful life, even though Commander Wang was always prepared for danger, a peaceful life was still a peaceful life, and was completely different from a real war.

Even though he has practiced swordsmanship over the years, it is still not as good as it was ten years ago when the Xuanwus changed.

Comparing the two,

The sword move that Commander Wang thought was perfect seemed a little slow in Pei Xingjian's eyes.

Pei Xingjian dodged the fatal blow by slightly turning sideways, then kicked Commander Wang fiercely in the abdomen, causing him to step back in pain.

As he was retreating, Pei Xingjian quickly pulled out a dagger, rushed over, and slashed Commander Wang's neck.

In an instant,
A blood line appeared on Commander Wang's neck. His throat was cut and blood was flowing out continuously.

the whole process,

Pei Xingjian is really quick and skillful.

In just a few blinks of an eye, Commander Wang's throat was slashed.

"puff…."

His throat was cut, Commander Wang's eyes widened and he kept spitting out blood.

He stared at Pei Xingjian blankly, staring, staring…
He wanted to speak.
But his throat was cut and he could no longer make a sound.

Gradually,
Pei Xingjian's figure in front of him became confusing and Commander Wang could hardly see Pei Xingjian's appearance clearly.

Consciousness becomes increasingly weak and blurred.

The next moment, the scene before my eyes changed unpredictably.

Everything around him was white. He no longer felt any pain, his throat was fine, and his body returned to what it was ten years ago.

And soon,
The white world around turned into a green grassland.

Eighteen steps also appeared in front.

On the steps, dark shadows seemed to descend from the sky and land on the steps.

One after another, seven black shadows descended from the sky.

Commander Wang couldn’t see the appearance of those people clearly, but he knew them, knew, knew...he had always known!

Even though he left his hometown and came to Wangshiwan for ten years without returning, he would never forget the owners of those black shadows.

Those dark shadows….
They are the seven great generals under the Qin King, Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Yaojin, Li Jing...
The shadows had their backs to him.
Looking ahead at the grassland, it seemed as if there were enemies there.

At this time,

One last black shadow descended from the sky, standing on the highest step, still with its back to him, looking at the grassland ahead.

In Commander Wang's eyes, that last black shadow was as gentle as jade and graceful.

Commander Wang was staring in a trance.

There was even a gleam of tears in his eyes.

That is the King of Qin.

He also remembered this scene, which was the place where he first met the King of Qin.

At that time, he was still young and had just joined Yuchi Jingde's army, and he fought against the Turks together with the elite troops of King Qin.

In that battle, he was completely impressed by the King of Qin's demeanor and became one of his most loyal soldiers. After the Xuanwu Gate Incident, he volunteered to come to this poor village and guard it for ten years without returning to Chang'an.

He was guarding this place for the King of Qin.

Some people may ask, why bother? Is it worth it?
It is not worth it for modern people because the modern national conditions make everyone put themselves first.

But in the Tang Dynasty or other dynasties, loyalty to the city was what most people pursued fervently throughout their lives.

The Peach Garden Oath, Zhuge Liang's deeds, Jiang Wei, the Anxi White-haired Army behind the Tang Dynasty, Yu Qian's defense of Beijing...
Too many deeds have proved that loyalty is the mainstream of today's dynasty.

For the sake of their king and their country, they are willing to give up everything and risk their lives.

Commander Wang is one of them.

“King Qin…”

Commander Wang looked up at the black shadow with a melancholy look in his eyes, and bowed slowly: "I'm sorry, I couldn't...see Wangshiwan well."

"You...be careful, they are back."

While talking,
His entire body began to turn into wind and sand and dissipate.

The end of consciousness,
Commander Wang seemed to see the King of Qin, whom he had followed all his life, on the high platform, slowly looking back.

But in the end, he still couldn't see it.
.
…….….….….….
Commander Wang is dead.

The final scene is nothing but a revolving lantern of his life.

Many people will recall their lives or the things they pursued most passionately in their lives before they die.

This is the revolving lantern.

In Pei Xingjian's eyes, he had slit Commander Wang's throat, and within a few seconds, Commander Wang had become a corpse.

“Whoosh….”

Pei Xingjian took back the dagger and swung his hands, and his cloak began to flutter, rustling.

The two words "Yaoguang" on the cloak shine brightly in the sun.

When he arrived outside the study, several white-robed soldiers saluted him.

"General, the sentry point has been controlled."

A white-robed soldier spoke.

Pei Xingjian nodded: "Yes."

"What should we do next?"

"We'll talk about this later. I need to go to a place first, but... I don't know if that place still exists."

Pei Xingjian laughed wistfully.

Then he grabbed the carriage brought by the white-robed soldier next to him and jumped on the horse.

"drive!"

He rode away at full speed.

Not long after, Pei Xingjian arrived at a place not far from Wangshi Bay.

Here….
Shocking!

Because there is a densely packed cemetery ahead, with tombstones everywhere.

Pei Xingjian looked at it and was also stunned.

“I didn’t expect them to be so thoughtful.”

He laughed to himself.

Pei Xingjian naturally knew what the place in front of him was.

It was ten years ago.

Not far from Wangshi Bay, the last war with Yuchi Jingde took place. The remnant soldiers and generals of the Eastern Palace who died in the war were hastily buried here.

Pei Xingjian's fiancée also died in this war and was hastily buried here.

At that time, when they were hunted down, they could only be buried hastily, which was far from the standardization and strictness of today.

These were done by the Tang Dynasty soldiers back then.

that's the truth.

At that time, Yuchi Jingde's army was a mortal enemy of the remnant soldiers and generals of the Eastern Palace, but their loyalty and selfless spirit deeply shocked Yuchi Jingde and others.

Both parties are from the Tang Dynasty. If it weren't for their different positions, they could have become friends.

So after Li Chengdao left by ferry, the Xuanwu Gate Incident came to an end. After the war, Yuchi Jingde led his men to give these former enemies a proper burial.
