MTL - Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms-Chapter 48 Loyalty and righteousness have been difficult since ancient times

   Chapter 48

   In the dark, under the stars, Cheng Ling watched a battle in the age of cold weapons.

   At that time, she stopped in place, holding the telescope in her hand, and almost lost all other ability to deal with it except watching silently.

  In the night, the wind blows the flags, and the sparks are like dragons.

   But all this is not only magnificent, but also cruel, bloody, and even anti-civilization.

   The first group of refugees were driven by the army in the rear, like beasts that had lost their own will, leaving only instinct and rushing forward frantically.

   A group of refugees fell, and the people in the back stepped on the corpses of the people in front and continued to move forward.

   They can only go forward, because there is the army of the King of the Sea at the rear, waiting for them with sharper weapons.

  Whoever dares to step back will be greeted with doubly ruthless slaughter.

  These refugees were all killed by King Linhai's army and did not dare to retreat. They could only hope to rush into the city. Perhaps they could make a contribution and gain a chance of survival.

The    killing cry almost shattered Cheng Ling's ear drums. She stood in the dark, and it seemed like she was observing another world across a time and space.

  I don't know how long it took, the two sides slaughtered with blood, and suddenly, from the top of the city, huge fireballs wrapped in burning objects were thrown down.

   "Ah! It's on fire—!"

   There were screams on the battlefield, and the fireballs crashed down, almost lighting up the entire night sky.

   There are also ignorant civilians and soldiers shouting in panic: "The fire is burning! The fire is burning! Run!"

  The ones on the side of the city wall were running backwards, and the ones at the back were pushing forward again, and the formation of the Linhai King's army was suddenly chaotic.

At the gate of Chixia City, a popular person, Shen Dantian, shouted loudly: "King Linhai, retreat! Our envoy said that Chixia City is not such a weak and weak city. Heaven's Dao has its own justice, I hope you will know when you are lost. Come back, don't be obsessed!"

   This sound is like thunder, and it can be heard very far in such a chaotic battlefield.

   Dong Dong Dong! The sound of Ming Jin sounded.

   is too chaotic, King Linhai can't control the formation, so he can only withdraw his troops first.

   Seeing that the ferocious army is now retreating and shrinking like a tide, there is a burst of cheers from the top of Chixia City.

   At this moment, in the center of the military tent on the side of King Linhai, there was also a loud and thunder-like voice.

   "Commander Wang, my Highness also has something to tell you!"

The voice rang out, as if it penetrated the night sky: "I heard that there is a son of the Pingchang Wang family who is like a pearl and beautiful jade. He can recite at the age of three, and can write at the age of five. He is talented and beautiful, and he is very intelligent. The only son of the deceased brother!"

   "Wang Junshou, my Royal Highness has invited Wang Qilang to be a guest in the tent. May I ask Wang Junshou, do you want your brother's only son's life? Or do you want your reputation for being loyal to the king?"

   "Wang Junshou, don't be a person who makes a name for himself! My Royal Highness is also a noble man, and it is only right and proper to replace the young emperor to ascend to the foundation. Please, please obey the will of God! Hahaha!"

   After the words were finished, there was a long laugh at the end of the voice.

   All kinds of chaotic voices in front of the two square formations were suppressed by this long laughter, silence, and I don't know when it started. In short, when the person finished speaking and laughing, under the entire night sky, the atmosphere inside and outside the city seemed to be stagnant.

  Chixia City was silent for a long time, and on the side of King Linhai, although the army was already shrinking and retreating, it did not retreat too far.

  From Cheng Ling's side, you can see that the city gate of Chixia City is facing the southeast. There is a large open space there, and there is a faint green peak in the distance, which is a mountain.

   Cheng Ling suddenly understood that King Linhai's army should have turned over from the mountain over there, so at night, when these people carried out a surprise attack, it seemed so abrupt.

   Before that, the mountain must have covered their tracks!

   At this moment, through the telescope, Cheng Ling saw that the army was stationed all over the mountain, about ten meters above the foot of the mountain, but they were cutting down trees in full swing?

   What is this going to do?

  Cheng Ling frowned slightly, and couldn't help but take a few steps forward.

   She waited patiently for a short while, over there, Lin Hai's movements were very fast. After all, there are so many people and so much power, and in a short time, they will clear a lot of open space there.

   Immediately afterwards, the sergeants erected a frame out of wood in the clearing.

Cheng Ling didn't understand it at first, but after a while, he saw a team of soldiers holding torches, pushing and escorting a young man with his hands tied behind his back to the wooden platform that was being held higher and higher. —

   Cheng Ling's heart suddenly froze, he understood!

   King Linhai, is he going to sacrifice Wang Qilang in public to threaten Wang Yong?

   At the same time, all the soldiers on the walls of Chixia City basically understood the meaning of King Linhai's move.

   They stood tall, and their line of sight was exactly opposite to the hillside over there. Instead, they could see more clearly than Cheng Ling, who had a telescope.

The    city wall was in commotion, and a general was furious and said: "Sir, let's rush out and head this traitor directly outside the city!"

   Before Wang Yong could answer, someone beside him exclaimed, "No!"

   Once the army of Chixia City rushed out of the city, how could Wang Qilang, who was caught by King Linhai, still be lucky?

   Another person said: "General Cen, don't be impulsive. Let's stick to the city, and we can still resist the attack of King Linhai, but once we leave the city, our troops may not be able to match the opponent!"

   "Then what should we do?" General Cen slapped his palm on the wall of the city wall in anger.

  Wang Yong did not speak, but his expression was heavy with vague pain.

  The staff next to him said again: "Sir, let's send a team out of the city and quietly try to climb over the back mountain to see if we can save Qilang back, so good?"

  Wang Yong nodded slowly, and said, "Okay, Sogo, I'll leave this to you to arrange, and send the strongest expert there."

   On the other side, although Cheng Ling couldn't hear the conversation on the city wall, she could guess and understand why Wang Yong didn't respond directly to King Linhai, and why he kept silent.

  This decision is too bad, no matter what Wang Yong says, whether he surrenders the city or abandons Wang Qilang for the sake of righteousness, he will eventually be reviled by thousands of people, and he has to remain silent.

  Perhaps, Wang Yi on that day also guessed that Wang Yong would be in a dilemma at this time, so he asked Cheng Ling to pass on such a sentence.

  Only Cheng Ling took out the token in front of countless people in front of the crowd, and conveyed Wang Yi's words well, so that Wang Yong could make a decision.

   Moreover, such sacrifice and tragic will definitely boost the morale of the Chixia City side.

   But in the end, Cheng Ling came a step too late.

  The army of King Linhai has already arrived. Under such circumstances, how can Cheng Ling enter the city, and how can he convey Wang Yi's words to Wang Yong?

  Cheng Ling observed it for a while, but pulled the horse gently, and went around in the southeast direction.
