Yes, why.

Jiang Yang was in a daze for a moment, looking at the young man who was still an adult in front of him, he was speechless for a while.

In the past few decades, he couldn't even remember the appearance of his eldest sister, only the silhouette of his elder sister riding a horse and red dress in the sunset was left in his memory. I can see that it is a little familiar.

General Jiang has only two children in his life, and they are generals in the same line.

His own mother gave birth to four children, all of whom were sons. Old General Jiang was the youngest, and the other three elder brothers died on the battlefield one after another before him, and the old matriarch also died of grief.

In General Jiang's generation, the first child after marrying a wife gave birth to a daughter, who looked juicy and beautiful, very much like her mother.

General Jiang was so happy that he even named his eldest daughter "Jiang Xinyue" to express the preciousness and love of his daughter in his heart.

Later, as Jiang Xinyue grew up, Old General Jiang discovered that her daughter not only inherited her mother's intelligence, but also possessed extraordinary talents in martial arts and military leadership.

In this way, he cherished and loved his eldest daughter even more, and took pride in his daughter, saying that he regarded her as the jewel in his palm, and it was no exaggeration to say that she was the bright moon in the sky.

On the other hand, Jiang Yang, who was born later, when Mrs. Jiang gave birth to him, because of the abnormal fetal position, he suffered a haemorrhage and dystocia.

He was born weighing less than four catties, and he killed his own mother when he was born. He was also weak since he was a child, and he was always much stupid, so he was never favored by his father.

Although Old General Jiang didn't blame him because his mother gave birth to him and died, he still tried to teach him skills and bring him up, but he knew very well in his heart that his father was far less proud and satisfied with him than his elder sister .

Even the name Jiang Yang came from the day when his mother gave birth to him. There was a poplar tree planted outside the house, and it was growing well. name.

He practiced martial arts and learned the art of war desperately, only to be praised by his father, and he reluctantly led the army under his father.

But the elder sister did it almost easily, and became the most powerful general under her father, who was loved by the people and obeyed by the soldiers.

He remembered that his father had said in front of people more than once that his elder sister was the most proud achievement in his life, and that he would let his elder sister inherit his mantle and guard the frontier for Daqing in the future, but he would only gently enjoin him, He pays attention to his body and doesn't need to worry too much about military affairs.

Not reconciled?

Jiang Yang thought, he was indeed unwilling.

Not only was he unwilling, but for a long time, he was jealous and even hated his eldest sister.

In other families, sons inherited their father's mantle, but in Jiang's family, his father favored his elder sister without hesitation. How did this make him feel balanced?

No matter how gentle and submissive a person is, after a long time, resentment will accumulate in his heart.

And when this kind of resentment accumulates to a certain level, people will lose their minds and do some wrong things that they can't even understand.

At that time, Jiang's family was holding on to a city. Without reinforcements and insufficient food, they had to endure the Northern Qin's offensive for a month. When they ran out of ammunition and food, they had to slaughter their fellow soldiers and horses. Divide food.

At that time, there was almost no difference between soldiers and civilians, but all the people in the city who could still stand up had to hold weapons against the Northern Qin army. Everyone was starving, but they still had to hold on. guard the city.

Under the extreme pressure, everyone's emotions are actually hovering on the edge, and dark thoughts are more likely to be born than ever.

At that time, Jiang Xinyue took the lead, and when the soldiers couldn't bear to kill the horses, she reluctantly set an example, beheaded her beloved horse first, and distributed it to the hungry soldiers and people for food.

And Jiang Yang was kind and soft-hearted since he was a child, he would rather go hungry than be ruthless and attack his own horses, and in addition, the army has killed a number of war horses, so he doesn't have to sacrifice his beloved horses, So that day he took a chance and saved his beloved horse's life.

This is a very common thing, generals who act like Jiang Xinyue have always been rare, and there are many generals in the camp who have never been willing to fight.

But the difference between Jiang Yang and those generals is that the one who acted completely differently from him was his elder sister who was connected by blood.

That night, he heard someone talking behind his back, saying that he is narrow-minded and selfish, not as open-minded as Jiang Xinyue, with the demeanor of a general.

If in the past, even if he heard someone talk about him like this, Jiang Yang would probably only care about it for a moment, and then comfort himself. After all, sister is indeed more talented than himself, and the soldiers admire her more. It's human nature.

But in a situation where food is exhausted, people eat each other, there is no support for a long time, there is no hope in the future, only the abyss of despair, the tense string in Jiang Yang's mind finally collapsed uncontrollably broken.

He suddenly thought, instead of being so hopeless and suffering day by day, it would be better to get rid of the fire from the bottom of the pot.

Jiang Xinyue has great supernatural powers, but even she can only defend and resist. There is no way to transfer the entire city people away without anyone noticing.

But Jiang Yang knew that there were some caves in the city for herdsmen to drive their flocks in and out. Not long after the war started, when the city gates were closed, nomadic people on the grassland managed to escape into the city through the caves.

But now, in order to prevent the enemy from sneaking in, these caves have already sealed the exits in the city, and there are soldiers who are responsible for guarding them, in case the Northern Qin army discovers these passages and sneaks into the city.

The messenger soldiers sent out to ask for help also came out of the tunnel, but a month passed, and every time they asked for help, they ended up without a problem. Not only did the rescue not come, even the soldiers sent out never doubted it.

Jiang Yang knew in his heart that most of the people would not be able to return, either because they died on the way, or because the letter arrived, but the reinforcements avoided them and deliberately delayed, refusing to send assistance.

In any case, it is clear that the situation outside the city is very dangerous.

However, Jiang Xinyue and Old General Jiang knew that there was a cave leading to the outside, but they still insisted on being guarded and sealed up. They just knew that the Northern Qin people had probably discovered the entrance of the cave and had set up an ambush nearby. It is obviously not realistic to want to use the cave to transfer the people in the city.

But at this time, Jiang Yang was already dazzled by the pawns' arguments, and he wanted to do something to prove himself.

Under the premise of not notifying Old General Jiang and Jiang Xinyue, he led a scout team in the name of going out for investigation, and sneaked out of the city from the burrow at midnight.
