Veterans in the barracks said that the back of Liang Ling kneeling in front of Yangguan that day was exactly the same as the day Marshal Liang fell down.

Qingshan had the honor to bury his loyal bones, and Beihuang ruthlessly kept his loyal generals.

Before Liang Ling was alive, he made a personal order in the army. If he unfortunately died in battle, he would have his body cremated according to the Liang family's rules, and then bring the ashes back to Baidi City.

It wasn't until the day when Liang Ling's body was about to enter the scene of the fire that everyone persuaded Guan Yao to get up from the coffin.

At that time, Guan Yao already smelled like a corpse. Under everyone's ineffective persuasion, he held Liang Ling's corpse for a day and a night, and then stayed by the coffin for two days.

Xiao Kan has never seen Guan Yao in such a mess, and it can even be said that he is a little crazy.

Song Yu still remembers that when Xiao Qian went to the funeral, Guan Yao locked herself in the bamboo house and hadn't seen anyone for half a month. The loss again and again was to torture Guan Yao in different ways.

In the battle of Yangguan, although the Li army was victorious, it was also seriously injured. 15 elite soldiers encountered Beiliu's 12 enemy cavalry, and in the end there were not many left.

Coupled with Liang Ling's disbandment, the army seemed to be shrouded in a dark cloud. Everyone walked around the camp sullenly, and occasionally you could see soldiers crying for Liang Ling.

Xiao Kan single-handedly handled Liang Ling's funeral. In addition to incarnation on the spot, other procedures had to be reported to the imperial court and then carried out together after the teacher returned to the imperial court, including the relocation of Marshal Liang.

It was still snowing heavily on the day Liang Ling's body was carried into the fire, and Guan Yao stood stiffly outside the fire like a marionette.

Song Yu stood closely behind Guan Yao, afraid that Guan Yao would do something impulsively.

When the time came, when Xiao Kan uttered "Qi Li" in a choked voice, Guan Yao's empty eyes immediately constricted, as if losing his mind, he was about to rush into the fire scene.

"Second brother!" Song Yu anticipated this kind of scene, and immediately hugged Guan Yao from behind.

"Let me go!" Guan Yao stared at the flames that started to rise up, as if his hoarse throat could no longer yell, "Give me back Ah Ling! Give him back to me!"

"Second Brother, Second Brother." Song Yu tightly tied Guan Yao's waist with his hands, and said distressedly: "Don't be like this..."

"Let go, let go." Guan Yao's voice was like a dry river rushing to catch a rain, "I want to bring him back, I want him, ahh...I want..."

Guan Yao's body that had been crying for a long time finally reached its limit. He knelt down in Song Yu's restraint, and watched the rising and rising flames engulfed his Liang Ling.

When I was still close in front of my eyes, I wish I could hug you more, but now that Yin and Yang are separated, will you forget me?

....................................

From Baiyuguan to Yangguan, they have all been re-garrisoned by the Li army, but it does not mean that the requirements of Emperor Chu have been fulfilled. It seems that there is one last step left, which is to go north and sweep away the main land of Beiliu.

In the battle of Yangguan, Beiliu was defeated, and it was not a big problem to win its main land, but after this battle, it was another huge consumption of troops.

Xiao Kan didn't want to fight this battle, but the DPRK and China wanted a peaceful outcome once and for all, so he had no choice but to not fight.

Guan Yao had been half-drowsy and half-asleep for several days in a row, and Song Yu vomited out the food he fed him within a long time. The situation became more and more worrying.

Xiao Kan came to Guan Yao's couch with a freshly brewed soup. Song Yu was watching over him. He put down the soup and asked, "Is Uncle Yao still awake?"

"Well, I vomited the medicine I drank earlier." Song Yu nodded weakly.

"Uncle Yi." Xiao Kan sat next to Song Yu, "Jing Yun has something to tell you, you must do what Jing Yun wants."

"You speak first."

Xiao Kan took out a kit from his coat pocket, "Brother Chu rushed to report from the middle of the capital. The Holy Majesty has fallen into a severe coma. The court is in chaos. The king is preparing to raise troops. He has summoned some righteous people to guard the palace. But there are not enough troops.”

Song Yu's originally relaxed heart tensed again, "Then what do you mean?"

"Beiliu has not been harvested, and General Liang has already sacrificed for it. Jingyun has no room to retreat, but there is chaos in Beijing, and Jingyun has no reason to sit idly by."

Xiao Kan opened the kit in his hand, took out a bronze talisman with auspicious clouds encircling a golden dragon, and put it in Song Yu's hand, "This is the military talisman in Beijing, and only those who hold this talisman can mobilize the [-] Beijing guards stationed outside Fujing. Uncle Yi took this talisman on behalf of Jingyun and rushed back to Fujing to give it to Brother Chu to help him guard the emperor."

"King Qi?" The things in Song Yu's hands suddenly became heavy, "You give such an important thing to Uncle Wei?"

"No, Brother Chu didn't know what Jing Yun meant, and Jing Yun didn't tell the third person. This was decided by Jing Yun just now. This is the best way." Xiao Kan pinched the other's shoulders, his eyes were firm, " Jingyun here only trusts Uncle Yi to bring this thing back."

"Is there nothing else to do?"

Xiao Kan nodded, sadly said: "If General Liang is still there, Jing Yun can go back with you, but there are still lingering evils here, and Jing Yun can only go back for about half a month at night."

Song Yu had already understood Xiao Kan's plan, and he held Xiao Kan's palm, "But uncle, I still can't let go."

"Jingyun promises that there will be only victory and no defeat in the final battle. When the remaining evils are eliminated, Jingyun will immediately return to the capital with his army. Now you return to the capital with the military talisman and Uncle Yao, and then Jingyun will go to you and wait for the court to settle down. , the three of us will go back to the village together."

Song Yu's eyes lit up, "Go back to the village?"

"Yes, back to the village, let's go home." Xiao Kan vowed, "We'll go back after we're done with this."

………………

Guan Yaohuo Chaodao followed Song Yu into the carriage for the return journey. After walking for a day and a night, Song Yu finally explained to him the reason for going back.

Guan Yao, who had no intentions at first, changed his expression instantly when he heard that Chu Ming was planning to rebel.

"Not enough." Guan Yao squeezed the military talisman tightly, "Not enough."

Song Yu couldn't quite understand the meaning of the other party, "What's not enough? What did the second brother mean?"

"The [-] troops protecting the capital are far from enough to compete with Chu Ming." Guan Yao frowned, and his voice was a little flustered, "When King Du gets this military talisman, he will be able to suppress it for a while at most. war."

"Second brother, how did you know?" Song Yu didn't expect that there were so many things he didn't know.

"Yes, Liang Ling... He told me about it." Guan Yao mentioned Liang Ling's name, and still couldn't help but choke up, "When he went from the southwest to the north, he had already discovered that the Southwest Rebellion Party was dispatched by Chu Ming. , but in order to stabilize the celestial dynasty for a while, this matter has not been decided to speak out."

"But we still have to hand over the military talisman to King Qi. It will be a while if we can defend it for a while, but after all, the number of guards in Beijing is not large. When the Jing army is exhausted, even if Jingyun's troops return to the court, they will be able to close their forces for a battle. There are not many left, and Jingyun's subordinates may not have the strength to fight again."

The two were silent with each other in the carriage for a while, each thinking about something.

After a long time, Song Yu touched his left ear, removed the nail on it, and said to Guan Yao, "Second brother, I have something to discuss with you."
