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

Chapter 19 Tell everyone in Chang'an that we have crawled back from hell!

If he were in the West, no one who knew him would dare to believe that he was the man recognized by Dayan as one of the seven guardian gods.

His soldiers, his friends, everyone he knew...
In their perception, Pei Xingjian is always extremely arrogant, eager for war and enjoys war.

Red eyes? Crying?

It is impossible to appear.

And today, it appeared.

People never have only one side. Everyone has emotions and desires, and they are complex. Even the most arrogant person has had moments of crying.

Pei Xingjian would only lose his composure like this when facing his future wife.

The woman in his memory, his future wife…
His wife always said that he was a piece of rotten wood, but Pei Xingjian thought that his wife was the rotten wood.

Complete rotten wood.

The lady obviously didn't have to come with him. If she didn't follow him, when the Qin King's men found her, she could say that she had nothing to do with Pei Xingjian, and the Qin King's men would believe it.

Because she hadn't married yet, her surname wasn't Pei yet, so she wasn't called Mrs. Pei.

But she still followed, without hesitation.

Even though he knew it was a life-threatening situation, he still chose to follow.

"Qingci, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

He hugged the tombstone as if he was hugging his deceased wife-to-be, tears welling up in his eyes.

He had cried before.

But the last time I cried was ten years ago.

The last time I cried was that night ten years ago.

Since then, Pei Xingjian never cried again, but today, when he saw his wife, who was supposed to be with him through thick and thin, died at the hands of Yuchi Jingde ten years ago, he cried very sadly.

He once fantasized about getting married and having children with his wife. He also worried about whether the children should learn literature or martial arts. He also worried about how to educate the children. Is it better to be a strict father or a kind father?

He thought about many futures, but after that night, they all became castles in the air.

And the one who caused all this was the almighty King Qin!
There are too many people like Pei Xingjian in Li Chengdao's army who lost everything ten years ago.

Because of this,

They want revenge on King Qin more than anyone else!
Even if the King of Qin is so strong that he is invincible, with the shackles of hatred and the leadership of that child, even if they are ants, they dare to bite the King of Qin!
"Qingci, it's getting late, I won't disturb your rest."

After talking for a long time, Pei Xingjian stood up.

But he went back to the tombstone and wiped the dirty spots with his hands.

"This time I came back to seek revenge with His Highness."

"We suffered a lot back then. All three clans in my family were executed by the King of Qin as accomplices of the traitors. This time when I came back, I also wanted to let the King of Qin experience what it feels like to have all his family members killed."

"Of course, if I can."

Pei Xingjian cried and laughed, thought for a moment, and continued, "Wait for me to come back. This time I won't run away or leave."

"If I can kill the King of Qin, I will come back to accompany you and build a tomb next to you for burial. You have been alone for ten years. You should not be alone from now on. I will accompany you."

"Just like what we said back then, we don't ask to be born on the same day, but we ask to die on the same day. Of course, you scolded me back then, saying how could I say such a thing about sworn brotherhood, but... I really like this sentence, and you agreed with it."

"I really... don't want to live anymore. If it weren't for my hatred for King Qin that kept me alive, I would have gone to hell to accompany you ten years ago."

"And if I fail to kill the King of Qin, or if I fail to see the day when the King of Qin is executed, and I die on the way, then I... hope Your Highness will bring my body to you. If you can't come, please don't blame me. I really... have tried my best."

"besides…."

Pei Xingjian talked a lot.

He was actually not a talkative person. His soldiers and lieutenants always asked why he was so taciturn.

Why did they remain silent after the victory? They didn't understand.

It is even more incomprehensible now, because Pei Xingjian said so much to his wife.

Finally.

There is no never-ending feast.

No matter how reluctant he was, Pei Xingjian knew that the opportunity to fight was the most important right now and he couldn't delay any longer.

He stood up and took one last serious look at his future wife.

"Gone, really gone."

Pei Xingjian looked at the coffin again, then turned and walked outside.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew and made him take a step back.

Pei Xingjian's eyes flickered.

Looking back, his eyes were stunned for a moment.

In a daze, he seemed to see the lady who had been with him through thick and thin, dressed as a peasant girl, with the same face as she had ten years ago, full of girlish charm, and looking at him with a smile.

He waved towards him and opened his lips slightly.

This scene seemed to bring him back to the moment ten years ago when his wife was in his arms and said the last words to him.

"Be frugal and be careful on the road."

The girl left a message, and in an instant, the young Pei Xingjian that night ten years ago and the Pei Xingjian of today overlapped. They turned around in unison and said "hmm" softly.

He turned around and walked away again, only this time in a better mood.

All the credit goes to the deceased Madam Chu Qingci.

However, is this really the case?
There is no resurrection of the dead in this world, it is just a fantasy of the living.

Perhaps, Pei Xingjian was still fantasizing that the former fool, the former lady, was still... still by his side.

The past day and night interactions and the entrustment of death made the relationship between them deeper than anything else.

He seemed unwilling to admit the death of that person.

….….….….….….
Left the cemetery.

Pei Xingjian quickly wiped away his tears. Although he still had tears on his face, his mentality was much better than when he came.

Outside the cemetery, the commander of the Yaoguang Camp had been waiting there for a long time. He walked over and was slightly surprised: "General, are you... okay?"

Pei Xingjian nodded: "It's okay. Did you get anything out of those captured Tang soldiers?"

Speaking of business,

The commander of the Yaoguang Camp was no longer worried about Pei Xingjian's condition. He said solemnly, "We found out that they are just a bunch of rabble. We can get the truth out of them by just torturing them."

"They said that at the beginning of every month a letter would be sent to Chang'an, saying that everything was safe here, but it hasn't been sent this month yet. Should we send it out?"

"No need." Pei Xingjian shook his head. "Before he died, the man surnamed Wang tore up a letter. I think it was that letter. With Yuchi Jingde's caution, if we use someone else to write the letter, he will see that it is not the handwriting of the man surnamed Wang, and he will also be suspicious and send someone to check the situation."

Pei Xingjian fought the most with Yuchi Jingde back then, and his entire family died at the hands of Yuchi Jingde, so he knew Yuchi Jingde better than anyone else.

The commander of the Yaoguang Camp frowned: "Then...what should we do?"

"What should I do?" Pei Xingjian smiled, a crazy smile.

this moment,
It was as if that war maniac Pei Xingjian had returned.

"Go and untie some people, let them go back to Chang'an City, let them tell Yuchi Jingde, tell the King of Qin, tell all the vested interests back then, that the group of losers in the East Palace ten years ago are back!"

"We... crawled back from hell to seek revenge on them!!"
