Chapter 1225

Boss Situ He's injuries have been properly treated, but they won't heal overnight, especially after the medicine wears off, the broken fingers hurt like hell. Ordinary people would be resting at home, but he didn't care about the fatigue and insisted on coming personally.

"You have the grace of saving my life, how can Boss Situ He neglect his benefactor?" Boss Situ He turned off his horse and bowed to He Lingchuan, "Great grace doesn't need thanks; from now on, as long as Brother He has any dispatch, Boss Situ will not refuse even if he dies!"

If He Lingchuan hadn't arrived in time, he would have been tortured to death by the Ghost King's clone.

"If I couldn't save Brother Boss Situ, that would be my greatest regret." He Lingchuan helped him up, "Brother Boss Situ, did your family return in great victory last night?"

Dong Rui followed behind and curled his lips in disgust.

This guy only returned at dawn. He dared to bet the whole Alfalfa Island that He Lingchuan must have watched the battle on the spot, and now he's pretending to ask if they won.

"Thanks to Brother He's blessing!" Boss Situ He's face was pale, making the two dark circles particularly obvious, and his eyes were full of bloodshot. But he didn't care about the fatigue at this moment, "As soon as I returned to the camp, Father set a trap to lure the Pixia people out, and then led the troops to sneak attack Baijian Town. The other side didn't expect us to dare to abandon Ju City and go to dig their nest, so we won a great victory!"

The battle last night was very intense but fast, Boss Situ Yu took the initiative to sneak attack and took full advantage, crushing the enemy in one fell swoop.

"The Pixia people in Baijian Town suffered over a thousand casualties, and we also captured more than three hundred prisoners of war." This was a great victory, Boss Situ He beamed, "Before dawn, we recaptured Baijian Town, and Father sent troops to pursue the remaining Pixia troops, not letting them escape to Ju City!"

The Boss Situ family had always wanted to take back Ju City, and now it was an unintentional success, recapturing Baijian Town instead.

This is also a great happy event to boost morale, especially after suffering two defeats and low morale.

He Lingchuan naturally congratulated him repeatedly.

After watching the Battle of Baijian Town last night, he also let out a sigh of relief. The Boss Situ family winning a few more victories and stabilizing their territory is very good for himself and for the development of Yangshan Islands here.

Compared to the Pixia people, He Lingchuan undoubtedly prefers to deal with the Boss Situ family.

Boss Situ He added: "Father has returned to Yaopo and wants to invite Brother He to meet and express his gratitude again!"

The Boss Situ family naturally wants to reward their life-saving benefactor.

Calculating it, the great victory last night all stemmed from He Lingchuan saving Boss Situ He, which allowed Boss Situ Yu to attack the Pixia people without worries.

The Boss Situ family accepted this cause and effect, and naturally wants to reward He Lingchuan.

"General Boss Situ is too polite." He Lingchuan was polite, but as soon as he turned around, he asked someone to lead two fine horses for himself and Dong Rui to ride.

Following Boss Situ He to Yaopo, He Lingchuan asked slowly: "Fu Liushan probably went to Ju City to save you too. Is he back now?"

"Back, he returned after dawn." Boss Situ He remembered Fu Liushan's expression when he saw him in the camp, and couldn't help but cough twice, "I was able to escape, Master Fu was happy but also a bit depressed."

"It was my recklessness. There are evil ghosts in Ju City, and he is a professional celestial master, so it's easier for him to deal with evil ghosts." He Lingchuan didn't mention the difficulty of the rescue last night at all.

But Boss Situ He was a sensible person: "The Pixia people could make so many arrangements outside the city, the traps inside the city must be even more meticulous. Brother He and Master Fu risked great danger to save me, and the Boss Situ family will keep it in mind!"

"I originally thought Fu Liushan was just an ordinary celestial master." Now that I think about it, Fu Liushan walking the Flash Gold Plain, this identity as a celestial master is very useful.

"My father asked him for help before. After the country fell, Master Fu was very sympathetic to our plight, so he lent a hand." Boss Situ He said, "But he is not from our country, just righteous."

The Soul-Sucking Mirror hummed twice: "So it's meddling, just like my master."

Speaking of this, Boss Situ He's face dimmed slightly: "If General Qi could have my luck, he wouldn't be missing."

"General Qi?"

"Former Gaopu general, Qi Tianbo, is also my father's close friend and fellow apprentice. Before the Gaopu nation fell, he fought to exhaustion to defend the capital and was unfortunately captured, locked in the Song army prison. My father wanted to send someone to rescue him, but after inquiring, he found out that General Qi had been sent away the night before. For the following month, no news could be found. My father was sad, but had to give up." He sighed, "It's said that the Song army prison executes death row prisoners in the middle of the night."

He bowed to He Lingchuan again: "Thanks to Brother He's timely rescue, otherwise I would follow in General Qi's footsteps."

"Between brothers, don't mention thanks." He Lingchuan changed the topic, "Now tell me, why would your portrait be on the Pixia people's wall?"

Boss Situ He smiled bitterly: "My course at Lingxu Taixue originally had three more years, but two years ago, there was a change in the Tiangong, and Lingxu City ordered us to end our studies and expelled us from the country in advance."

He Lingchuan nodded: "Just like the Dou Wenguan and Dou Wuxing brothers."

The Dou brothers who stayed in Yangshan Islands left helplessly because Lingxu City kicked people out.

Thinking of Dou Wenguan, He Lingchuan's heart moved again. This guy has a good tongue, and Yangshan's surroundings have been calm lately, with nothing to do diplomatically; he should arrange a new job for him.

"Yes, that year Lingxu City kicked out many, many people, not only a large number of students but also many merchants from various countries." Boss Situ He said, "As far as I know, several hundred people from the Flash Gold Plain were kicked out, some even having served as officials in Lingxu for many years, and they were actually expelled. Of those kicked out, only a small part went to other countries, and most of them came back."

He Lingchuan was a bit ashamed. His act of burning the Tiangong changed the fate of countless people. "Like you, how many people came back?"

"I know of three or four hundred people, and as for those I don't know, there are even more." The Flash Gold Plain is too big; how could he know how many people studied and served in Beijia? "Those who can go to Lingxu City from the Flash Gold Plain are at least famous families in the local area, with connections and contacts. After leaving Beijia, most of them can only come back here."

Going to other places is not as good as returning to their hometown.

Boss Situ He talked about his family's story again: "I didn't return long before Pixia suddenly started a war against my home country Gaopu. The whole country rushed to fight, and persisted for more than half a year, and finally..."

He sighed.

"My father always resisted the enemy on the northern line, and not long after, he learned that the capital had been conquered, so he had to retreat to his territory to continue holding out. Pixia sent us two ultimatums, both of which were torn up, so they were annoyed."

"Why not surrender?" He Lingchuan asked matter-of-factly, "The home country is already gone."

Officials of a fallen country either surrender, stand on their own, or very few choose to commit suicide.
