Chapter 2086: Death Situation
"If the situation escalates further, not only you and I will be implicated, but even Bailie will suffer." Lu Qingbang stopped his sister, but frowned and said, "On the day of the battle, when I shot the arrow, I thought Xian Da had dodged it, but he was still shot in the eye and fell off his horse."
I always feel like something is wrong.
Lu Feiyan asked him: "Are you sure?"
"It was a chaotic battle and it was dark, how could I be sure?" Lu Qingbang smiled bitterly, "That flower feather arrow is indeed mine. I can't shirk this responsibility in front of everyone."
Hearing this, Lu Zhenxian's heart sank to the bottom.
Facts have proved that the Lu clan leader was surprisingly accurate in predicting the enemy's situation this time.
The news of Xianda's death in battle spread to Ya State, and the whole country was in mourning. The King of Ya State was furious and demanded that Bailie hand over the murderer, otherwise he would attack all the way to the capital.
No matter how cowardly the Lu family is, they know that Lu Qingbang has done nothing wrong.
Defending the homeland or killing the enemy on the battlefield, which one is wrong?
Lu Zhensheng quickly wrote a letter to his second son, and Lu Qinglin also asked Mou Ting for help. So Mou State negotiated with Ya State while sending troops to support Bai Lie and fought fiercely with Ya State.
There was no progress in the negotiations and no improvement in the war situation.
The conditions put forward by Yaguo were that in addition to Bailie having to pay a large amount of compensation, he also had to hand over the murderer Lu Qingbang!
Lu Qinglin, who the Lu family had high hopes for, worked for the Mou Kingdom and was away from Bailie for many years. Lu Qingbang took on the responsibility of defending Bailie and became the main force in fighting against the invasion of the Ya Kingdom. He really worked hard and made great contributions.
No matter how thick-skinned Lu Zhensheng, the patriarch of the Lu clan, is, how can he push him out to take the blame?
To put it bluntly, if they hand over Lu Qingbang, who can resist when Ya State invades again?
With the previous example of Lu Qingbang, which member of the Lu family would be willing to go into battle again?
Mou State asked Ya State to change the conditions, but the latter refused.
Negotiations broke down and the fighting continued, with the two sides fighting to the death.
The Ya Kingdom was furious and continued to send reinforcements to Bailie. The army that first entered Bailie to plunder and rob people only had 700 to 800 people. Later, after fighting with Lu Qingbang, the number increased to more than 2,000.
Now, Ya State has sent more than 30,000 people in one go!
When attacking the western part of the Shining Gold Plains in the past, the Ya Kingdom only sent this many troops. Now all of them are pressed onto the Hundred Lines Front. Not to mention the Hundred Lines, even the Mou Kingdom is having a hard time coping.
Recently, Bega's offensive has been particularly fierce, especially Qingwu General Hong Chenglue has been shining. Mou State has not gained any advantage on the western battlefield, but has suffered several heavy losses. Its strategy and tactics are being adjusted in depth. If the eastern front continues to fight with Ya State, the dual-front operation will consume too much energy and involve too much energy.
Yaguo is very free now and has plenty of patience and energy to continue to fight with Mouguo.
The Mou Kingdom was also very clear that a mere hundred troops did not need the Ya Kingdom to make such a big fuss. The King of Ya sent troops under the guise of losing his son, clearly cooperating with Bega to contain the Mou Kingdom on the eastern front and consume its strength.
Therefore, the wisest thing to do is to withdraw in time and jump out of this mess.
Directly withdrawing troops from the battlefield would be tantamount to admitting defeat and fleeing. The State of Mou could not do such a thing, so it had to return to the negotiating table.
Yaguo’s attitude is very tough. The amount of compensation can be reduced, but the murderer must be handed over, otherwise the war will not end.
So Lu Zhensheng came to find Lu Laoliu's family.
He couldn't bring himself to die by tying himself up, so he could only think of a different way of thinking:
"King Ya just wants to vent his anger and give an explanation to his people. We change Ah Bang's appearance and send him out of Bailie. We find a replacement here who looks similar to him and just say that he committed suicide. Then we hand the body over to Yaguo. I don't think they will be able to say anything."
Before Lu Zhenxian could speak, Lu Feiyan beside him said, "If it was my second brother who killed Xian Daye, would you punish him like this, clan leader?"
"If Qinglin killed him, it wouldn't be Bailie's turn to come forward!" Lu Zhensheng was unhappy and knocked on the table. "Okay, let's talk about the facts! What I offer is the best way to save Ah Bang's life!"
Lu Qinglin's most important identity was the general of the Mou State. If he killed Xian Daye, the Mou State would protect him. How could Lu Laoliu's son compare with him? In the past, the Mou State killed so many generals and soldiers of the Ya State. This account could not be counted at all, so it was not counted.
Life and death grudges on the battlefield are resolved on the battlefield. This is the logic of war.
Why did Yaguo insist on biting Bailie? Wasn't it because Bailie was easy to bully?
The world is like this. It has come to this critical moment. Why is the little girl talking to him about fairness?
Solving the problem is Bailie’s top priority right now.
Lu Zhensheng has keenly sensed Mou Guo's impatience. If the stalemate continues, Bai Lie will be the one who suffers in the end.
Lu Qingbang said solemnly: "If I fake my death, I will no longer be able to walk the world under the name of Lu Qingbang, and I will no longer be able to protect Bailie. Who can stop the Ya Kingdom from plundering again? If the Ya Kingdom becomes more aggressive, they will no longer want money or people, but the land of Bailie. Who can stop them? Second brother?"
Lu Feiyan sneered: "If Second Brother is reliable, why didn't he come this time?"
Normally, if she said something like this, Lu Zhenxian would definitely scold her. But now he said nothing.
Lu Zhensheng didn't want to get entangled with the two juniors. He looked at him and asked, "Sixth Brother, what do you say? You should always think about Ah Bang, right?"
Lu Zhenxian usually greets people with a smile when doing business, but now he is unusually serious: "Brother, Bailie has been bullied by Yaguo for long enough. He shot and killed the enemy general on the battlefield of Abang, which is a meritorious service, but you want him to fake his death to escape punishment! What crime has he committed?"
Lu Zhensheng said with a straight face: "We are all family members. What's the point of judging merits and demerits? The most important thing right now is how to save Bailie from danger! These millions of innocent people, why should they suffer from the disaster of war?"
"Brother Ren Yaguo, if you ask for whatever you want, they will become even more demanding! Ah Bang is right. Before, they wanted food and money, and you gave them to them. Now they want people, and you give them to them too. In the future, if they ask for more land, will you not give it to them?"
Bullying is when your bottom line is trampled upon step by step. If you don't fight back, your bottom line will be lowered again and again, and your backbone will be cut.
Lu Zhenxian pointed outward casually and said: "Sooner or later, these millions of people will have nothing to do with you and me."
Lu Zhensheng was displeased: "Nonsense, why do you have to do this?"
Where does Laoliu put the State of Mou?
Lu Feiyan and his brother looked at each other and said firmly: "We will all die sooner or later. We would rather die on the battlefield and perish together with Yaren!"
Lu Zhensheng's face was as black as charcoal. He couldn't help but say, "What's the point of you dying on the battlefield? Can you stop the Ya army? Can you stop them from burning, killing and looting? Ya can mobilize at least 200,000 troops. How can Bailie stop them?"
What's the point of just expressing emotions? In the end, the forces of both sides are not equal.
If we continue this battle we will surely lose and hundreds of people will die!
