Genius One Second Remember → website provides you with wonderful novels to read. Read the full text of the latest chapter. When Xu Yuan saw Li Mingjun in Xiazigou, the unlucky General of Western Zhao was having his hands and feet tied, his face turned blue, and he was trembling and sitting next to a fire. He was prepared to die. He was ambitious. When the ice and snow broke and he and his horse fell into the glacier, he even felt a little happy in his heart. It was good to die like this. At least his body would not fall into the hands of the enemy. As a soldier, General, this is a very honorable and dignified way to die.

At the critical moment, Gu Li jumped on top of his head and grabbed his hair. He was not surprised but overjoyed. He raised his hands and held Gu Li's hand tightly, trying to kill this famous female general. Dragging them into the water together, dying like this, and being buried with a high-status enemy general. Is there anything more wonderful than this?

But he immediately realized that something was wrong, because instead of falling asleep, they gradually rose up until half of their bodies were out of the glacier. When he managed to open his eyes , only to see that there was a noose on Guli’s body. This was a skill that the Huns often used when grazing. If the noose was thrown out and the leading horse was caught, everything would be done. This unique skill was also used by them. When used on the battlefield, the noose flew out, almost never missing a shot.

Seeing that he was about to be dragged onto the ice, Li Mingjun couldn't help but fight. He waved his hands and made fists to hit Gu Li who was right in front of him. He raised his hands and felt that he was extremely awake. Although he fell into the water for a short time, he was still It was enough to make his body functions stiff, and although his opponent was a woman, her ability to withstand the cold was obviously much better than his. Just when he managed to raise his fist, Gu Li was already about to reach his waist. He took off the other noose and put it around him with a wave of his hand. When he tightened his hand, the clasp of the noose tightened instantly, binding Li Mingjun tightly. Li Mingjun watched in despair as he and Gu Li were being pulled apart. Out of the ice, on top of the snow-covered ice, he was dragged by the Hun cavalry, leaving a deep groove in the ground.

He was captured. At this time, he even lost the ability to commit suicide. At this moment, he felt extremely regretful, as he had known this earlier. Wouldn't it be better to just give yourself a quick shot?

When they got to the shore, Li Mingjun saw that Gu Li, who had fallen into the water with him, actually got up on her own, jumped a few times on the spot, and then walked to the side calmly. There, her subordinates had already set up a tent for her. Although they were angry, they also admired her very much. At least this woman had a much better cold resistance than him. Now he just felt like an ice cube. It's hard to move a finger.

Duoji's eyes widened and he was gouging Li Mingjun's body like a knife. It was this guy who almost caused his division commander to suffer an accident. The danger just now was extremely dangerous. If he had moved a little slower and thrown the noose less accurately, the division commander and Li Mingjun would have fallen into the glacier. Once If you fall into the river, even the gods can't save you.

"Make a fire for him and bake him before he freezes to death." In a tent on one side. Gu Li's voice came.

The fire burned brightly, and Li Mingjun slowly felt a hint of warmth.

There was also steam rising from my body, just at this time. () Xu Yuan rushed here from behind.

Sitting silently next to Li Mingjun, Xu Yuan pulled out the dagger from his waist, stretched it over, broke the tendon that bound Li Mingjun's hands with a crash, and returned the dagger back into the knife with a choke. sheath. Insert it into your waist and look at Li Mingjun with a smile.

"Xu Yuan." He introduced himself.

Li Mingjun, who was lowering his head and rubbing his wrists, suddenly raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with wide eyes, wearing the same clothes as ordinary Han soldiers. He could guess that the status of the man in front of him was not low, but he was absolutely Unexpectedly, this person turned out to be Xu Yuan, a great general of the Han Dynasty and the commander of the First Military Region.

As for Xu Yuan, he only heard his name and had never seen him before. Looking at Xu Yuan, his eyes showed shock and confusion, as to why this big shot suddenly appeared in Huining.

"You, why are you here?" Even Li Mingjun himself didn't expect that the first sentence he asked would be so irrelevant.

"What a coincidence." Xu Yuan laughed: "General Li, do you believe in God's will?"

Li Mingjun was silent for a moment: "The way of heaven is unpredictable, so what if you believe it, so what if you don't believe it?"

"I didn't really believe it before. I have always believed that people are determined to win. Because a long time ago, when I was a small county captain, I thought that I would not live to be thirty years old. Have you heard about our king? The Battle of Yuyang?"

"Of course I know which is the most important battle for Gao Yuan to truly step onto the stage of history."

"I was also present in that battle. I, Meng Chong, or the king himself, at that time we all thought that we were destined to die, but we still wanted to give it a try. Meng Chong and I went to the king without hesitation. In that war, we not only survived, we even performed miraculous achievements, laying the foundation for the later Eastern Conquest Army and today's Han Dynasty. Since then, I have always believed that man can defeat nature, as long as you are willing to do so. If you are willing to do it, God will definitely live up to you. But this time, I really have to believe in God." Xu Yuan smiled proudly: "General Li, do you know why I appeared in Huining? Will the cavalry division show up here?"

"This is exactly what I want to know. You should not be here in the first place." Li Mingjun raised his head and stretched his hand closer to the fire. "If it weren't for you, Zhou Zilong's people, I would I really didn’t take it seriously.”

Xu Yuan nodded, "This is probably God's will. I appeared in Huining to inspect the army here, and to take a look at you nearby, because I am planning to launch an autumn sweep of Shanggu County where you are guarding after next spring. For this reason, I secretly mobilized the Xiongnu independent cavalry division to sneak into Huining in batches. The two thousand cavalrymen led by Gu Li were the first batch to arrive. "

Xu Yuan stretched out his hand to take the wine bag from Duoji on the side, took a sip, and handed it to Li Mingjun, "Drink a little to warm yourself up. Falling in the glacier this season is quite choking."

Li Mingjun silently took the bag, raised his neck, and took a big sip. He was so unwilling and unconvinced that he drank so hard that he choked violently.

"This is really God's will!" he said with a wry smile.

"What kind of bullshit God's will." A cold voice came from behind, "Even if you don't come this time, you can escape next time. You yourself know what you are like now, look at these subordinates of yours , How much fighting power do they have? How long can you withstand our attack? "

Li Mingjun turned around. I saw that chilling devil mask again.

Gu Li had changed into dry clothes, and the mask that Li Mingjun had swept away earlier had been found by his subordinates on the battlefield. Now it was back on her face. She sat casually next to Li Mingjun and gave her a hand. Grabbed the leather bag from his hand. He tilted his neck and took a big sip, then looked at Li Mingjun sideways: "Your kung fu is pretty good."

Li Mingjun snorted: "So what, I'm not your prisoner."

"Aren't you ashamed that such a dignified general actually comes to do these things of robbing families and homes?" Gu Li snorted coldly.

Li Mingjun turned his head and looked away. After a long while, he turned around and said, "If the tens of thousands of brothers you brought with you don't have enough food to eat and don't have warm clothes, in this mid-winter season, you won't even have a cotton-padded coat or even charcoal for heating." No, what will you do? If you don’t rob, what will you do if you watch your brothers die of cold and hunger, or mutiny?”

Gu Li shook her head, "You still have such a large territory, and it's really pitiful that you have managed to get to this point. But compared to you, the people in places like Shanggu and Jinyang are probably even more pitiful. You can still go and rob them." , what should they do? At least you can survive!"

"This is none of my business." Li Mingjun lowered his head.

"Yes. It's none of your business, that's why you ended up like this." Gu Li stood up and threw the wine bag on him, "Drink a few more sips, poor bastard, I don't know when I will be able to drink again in the future." It’s time to drink! My aunt is too lazy to talk to people like you.”

Looking at Gu Li's back as she walked away. Li Mingjun shook his head and said: "He has a hot temper, but his upbringing is a bit poor."

Xu Yuan burst into laughter. If this Li Mingjun knew Gu Li's true identity, his eyes would probably pop out of his head.

"General Li, you have fought against our Han army many times, right? It seems that every time you end up with bad results?" Xu Yuan smiled and changed the topic.

"Three times, there were three real confrontations. One was in Xiling City. That time only Zhao Xilie and I ran away. The second time was in Handan. Although it was Zhou Changshou who did it, we all know that the person behind this incident The real mastermind is you. This is the third time and the worst time for me." Li Mingjun sighed, "I have no choice but to deal with bad luck."

"You lost three times, each time worse than the last. Haven't you ever thought about the reason?" Xu Yuan looked at him and said.

"The reason?" Li Mingjun thought for a while, "You guys are getting stronger and stronger, but we are getting weaker and weaker."

"This is just a superficial phenomenon. You should look deeper and think more about the deeper reasons. My king often says that when you are in good ways, you will get a lot of help, but when you are in bad ways, there will be little help. We can step by step from a few hundred people back then to where we are today, just because Our king is convinced of this. No matter when we are weak or after we are strong, we will put the interests of the people first, let them get rich and let them live with dignity. Therefore, we will become stronger and stronger as we fight, and you , but the more we fight, the weaker we are. Look at you now, how long do you think Xi Zhao can last even if we don’t fight? How long can you last one year, two years?”

Li Mingjun raised his head in confusion, yes, how long can he last? In the entire area controlled by Western Zhao, the economy has completely collapsed. The war-torn people not only have to bear a large number of taxes and corvees, but also have to accept the exploitation of the Qin State. I don't know when it will collapse and flee. There were more and more people. Even if the Western Zhao court adopted a cruel joint sitting system, it still could not stop the people from fleeing. Shanggu County under his rule was the place where the most people fled.

"Everything has nothing to do with me now." He shook his head, "I was defeated and became your prisoner. Everything is over."

"If you were just an ordinary prisoner, would I issue an order to capture you alive and let Master Gu Li take risks? Do you think I would sit here and have a chat with you over a fire and drink tea?" Xu Yuan stared at Li Mingjun, "General Li, don't you want to do something for the people of Zhao State?"

"Zhao? Is it Western Zhao or Eastern Zhao?" Li Mingjun laughed: "West Zhao is now the slave of Qin, and Dong Zhao is not the servant of your Han State. You see, you are the general of the Han Dynasty, but If you give the order, Zhou Zilong will fight for you. Where is Zhao Guo? "

Xu Yuan spread his hands: "The general trend of the world must be reunited after a long period of separation. This is the law of history. Well, this is what my king said. I can't say it. The Zhao State may no longer exist in the near future, but as the people of the former Zhao State , but they have the power to live a better life. Look at the people of Dong Zhao. Well, these are the people you robbed today. How do you think they live compared to you now in West Zhao? Even compared to before. When Zhao State was at its peak, it would probably be even richer, right? "

"Do you want to incite rebellion against me? Do you want me to surrender to you and work for you?" Li Mingjun asked. On this issue, he could not refute Xu Yuan, because the Han Dynasty has done an unquestionable job in this regard. The people of the Han Dynasty are indeed The happiest people on this continent. "Giving all of Shanggu County to you? Let you take over this land without a single blow?"

Xu Yuan burst out laughing: "It's not that simple. If it were that simple, I would just send troops to attack. General Li, we can work together. The people of Xi Zhao who are suffering now should do something to make them earlier." Escape from the sea of ​​suffering and live a life that a normal person should live. What do you think of my proposal?" (To be continued.)
