Chapter 161 Victory
On the battlefield, there were the sounds of drums, swords, shouts of killing, screams, and pleas for mercy...
Soon, the area outside the city gate became a sea of blood and corpses.
After going through the baptism of war, Jun Qiulan's heart became much more accepting.
But it was Yan Jing's first time experiencing war.
It was the kind of war in ancient times where white knives went in and red knives came out. He couldn't hold it in and vomited while holding onto the wall.
Jun Qiulan was helpless. She had wanted to laugh at him, but now all she felt was heartache.
"Wei Xi, please take this comrade down."
Yan Jing's face turned pale. He had never seen such a scene where arms and legs were flying everywhere, the ground was dyed bright red, and even the air was filled with the smell of blood.
He didn't insist, "Comrade, let's go down together. We'll take you back later."
Huo An thought for a moment and remembered his recorder. "Do you mind if I watch the game from here? I can help if necessary."
He patted his sash.
Jun Qiulan looked at it with envy. Since Grandpa Yan had already called people over, this little bit didn't matter.
"As long as comrades don't mind."
Jun Qiulan looked at Yan Jing again and said with a smile, "I told you not to come before, but you refused to listen."
Yan Jing was helpless. At the end of last year, he had accompanied Jun Qiulan to Beijing and shot and killed people. He had done it all without any mercy, and there was not even any psychological impact afterwards.
Because he knew they were bad people, if he didn't shoot, they would be the ones to die.
I thought I had a pretty good psychological endurance, but it turned out that I overestimated myself.
The shooting took place on that snowy night, and someone helped him deal with the body afterwards, so he didn't see any bloody scene at all.
Now this scene...
Yan Jing closed his eyes and dared not think about it anymore.
Huo An did say a few words: "Go back and find a psychologist. The psychological trauma of war..."
After a pause, he remembered that ordinary psychologists didn't seem to treat this either. No, it wasn't that they couldn't treat it, it was just that they weren't professional enough. It would be more appropriate for them to have a psychologist from their army.
Even though they are living in a peaceful time, there are many hidden dangers. For those soldiers who are going on a mission for the first time, especially those who have killed the enemy with their own hands, it is common for them to have nightmares after returning home after seeing the scene of brains splattering out.
Since the old man Yan just now has such a relationship, it shouldn't be difficult to ask this Mr. Yan to go to the army for psychological counseling.
Go back and write a report and ask.
It just so happened that I had his recorder as evidence.
The war was in full swing. Huo Lian was not there, and he was the commander-in-chief. He could not just go down the city wall, so he found a soldier.
"Comrade, please take him down."
"Okay, no problem."
Huo Lan listened to their conversation and the way they addressed each other, and figured something out.
Could it be that this ancient world is following the path taken by their revolutionary predecessors?
It's really interesting.
Yan Jing did not refuse to be sent downstairs. After he went downstairs, his grandfather laughed at him for a long time.
"You, this is what it means to stay in peacetime for too long."
Yan Jing was helpless, "It's not the times that are peaceful, it's our country that is peaceful."
"That's true." Yan Huai sighed, "Fighting here is also dangerous. Are you sure you want to stay here?"
Yan Jing said without hesitation, "Of course, I am also worried about Lanlan being here alone."
Anyway, he has an assistant director and screenwriter helping him oversee his film, and he has already reviewed and completed all the preliminary work.
By the time the movie is released, he, as the director, has almost nothing to do.
If I want to be busy again, I’ll have to wait for the next movie.
His family is wealthy, so he doesn't have to work hard to build his career. He just wants to do what he wants to do.
I used to just want to make the movies I wanted to make, but now I just want to be with my boyfriend.
Even if he can't help, he has to stay with him.
Yan Jing also knew that their Lanlan was a thoughtful and gentle person. In this large-scale war, the gunpowder explosion would be an indiscriminate attack.
The enemy troops on the opposite side, after all, are also compatriots, and there must be some among them who are willing to surrender to them.
It's just the situation.
Yan Huai didn't say much. After all, this was his hometown and half of his grandson's hometown.
He had failed to change the world before, but now someone has.
Yan Huai was still very pleased, and he could only think of ways to provide them with more help.
This time, when he asked the army to borrow people, he took the initiative to confess his secret. Of course, the other party's willingness to lend people was inseparable from the contributions he had made to modern society in his life.
Speaking of this issue, Yan Huai said: "The country will definitely be interested in this matter. How about letting you be the middleman?"
He is old and doesn't want to travel anymore.
Since Jun Qiulan's identity is not convenient to be revealed, Yan Jing can only be the middleman.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, after this incident, Jun Qiulan's identity can no longer be concealed.
The country is very powerful and has all kinds of high-tech equipment that ordinary people can't imagine.
However, Jun Qiulan's appearance and his background to the outside world are not so impeccable.
All I can say is, maintain a balance.
Therefore, it is inappropriate to let Jun Qiulan be the middleman because his hometown is not in modern times.
Everyone is selfish.
Yan Jing is just the right person. Although he has one-quarter ancient blood, he grew up in modern times and received a completely modern education.
Yan Jing was silent for a moment, "Lanlan's identity?"
He was still worried.
"Don't worry about this. The country is probably even more reluctant to expose this matter than you are."
It is hard to imagine what a sensation this will cause.
Yan Jing was relieved.
The disguise I put on today is better than nothing.
As for their previous idea of seeking foreign aid to help build the ancient times, maybe there would be a way.
For people who come out of the army, it has different meanings and differences from ordinary recruitment.
Besides, their country has a lot of experience in providing aid to poor countries and regions.
As for what this side could provide to the country in ancient times, it was actually quite a lot.
Many extinct animals and plants, even pathogens of extinct diseases, some lost ancient crafts, secret recipes of traditional Chinese medicine, etc.
When the war subsides, Lanlan will certainly take the initiative to give back to modern society.
On Jun Qiulan's side, the war is still going on.
Huo An had been standing beside Jun Qiulan, listening to him give various orders, and he actually admired him in his heart.
Conditions in ancient times were limited, and fighting wars was definitely different from modern times.
It requires advance deployment, preparation for a rainy day, and cooperation from all aspects.
Artillerymen, firearms, archers, and those transporting weapons and ammunition...all must work closely together.
Although Comrade Jun and his men had walkie-talkies, they were not equipped with a complete individual combat system like modern soldiers.
Commands were often given by conveying signals using drum beats.
It's quite novel.
On the enemy side, the commander's head exploded for some reason, and the situation was actually very chaotic.
But there are also deputy generals, and under the deputy generals there are many young generals.
It is impossible to wipe them out in one fell swoop.
It is impossible to kill all the 150,000 soldiers.
Jun Qiulan keenly noticed that many enemy soldiers voluntarily laid down their weapons, but died at the hands of their own enemies.
Immediately, he gave another order.
"Those who wish to surrender, tie white cloth on your arms, take up your weapons, and charge your enemies. We will escort you from above, and try to get as close to the city gate as possible."
Of course he knew that some people would pretend to surrender and then turn against him after approaching the city gate.
But their city walls were all made of cement, the city gates were reinforced, and there was hot oil and sewage waiting on the city walls.
If he dares to cause trouble, he will never be able to return.
Huo An looked at it for a long time and sighed: "Ancient warfare was also simple."
Jun Qiulan was worried that his identity would be exposed, so he didn't dare to say anything more.
"War is always cruel, but in many cases, only by ending war with war can people live a better life."
"That's right." Huo An agreed with this statement.
A war between 150,000 soldiers and 120,000 soldiers cannot be fought in a day or two.
Those who were willing to surrender ran towards them.
The generals on the enemy side, after all, held official positions and were not easily tempted to surrender. When they saw deserters, they would order them to be executed.
Instead, the war became more complicated.
The catapults that throw fire and artillery have a limited throwing distance, and many enemy soldiers have surrendered and are running towards them.
It was too chaotic, so Jun Qiulan temporarily stopped the artillery fire.
Except for those who surrendered, most of the remaining people were actually scared and wanted to escape.
But behind them, there are advance troops.
The artillery fire over there never stopped for a moment.
The cost of producing gunpowder is not high, so for this war, Huo Lian expanded the production scale.
Those who were able to join the "production team" were actually seriously disabled soldiers who had few relatives at home.
After all, once you enter that place, you probably won't be able to get out in this lifetime.
Huo Lian had no choice but to make such arrangements.
After all, at this time, if the formula were leaked, there would be chaos in the world.
To prevent the formula from being leaked, they also added some miscellaneous things into the gunpowder pot.
This is to prevent a missile from failing to explode after being thrown and being picked up by the enemy.
The war lasted for three days and three nights.
The very next morning, tens of thousands of people led by Huo Lan also arrived at the rear.
The advance troops, who were originally a little overwhelmed, came back to life.
It is impossible for tens of thousands of people to be killed directly in the explosion. There will always be some who escape, and they have to send people to chase and intercept them.
The difference between their rear and Jun Qiulan's front position was obvious.
Those who run towards the city gate are willing to surrender. Those who are unwilling to surrender can only run back. Those who run back are the enemy.
Jun Qiulan personally led the army. During these three days, he did not leave the city wall except for eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
No, I went back at noon.
Together with Grandpa Yan, they sent their foreign aid away.
They did come here with a mission, but they can't stay here forever.
Huo An went back to hand in the task and the recorder.
Jun Qiulan didn't have time to care about it. The war was urgent and he couldn't leave.
It was not until the end of the war that Jun Qiulan learned the specific news from Yan Jing.
A quick investigation by the department over there revealed that the young general Jun Qiulan was actually a popular artist in the entertainment industry.
The makeup I put on that day was just a formality.
However, it's not a big problem.
Yan Jing made an analysis with him, and the best proof was that they had not yet arranged a meeting with Jun Qiulan.
Jun Qiulan also breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he joked, "At first, I tried to hide in various ways, fearing that my secret would be exposed. But I didn't expect that I still couldn't keep it completely secret."
He knew that if he hadn't borrowed external aid this time, he should have been able to keep it a secret.
But he doesn't regret it.
The tens of thousands of people who were rescued had to eat, drink, defecate and urinate on the battlefield, and were exposed to the wind and sun, and most of them fell ill.
Now they are all isolated.
Make arrangements after you recover.
If there had been no external aid, they might not have been able to successfully rescue more than 10,000 people.
And if you really want to kill that beast Zheng Zian, it won't be that easy.
After all, it is the modern countries that have given them too much help.
Jun Qiulan also figured it out, "If my superiors need me to do anything, I will definitely cooperate."
Yan Jing: "Not bad, Comrade Jun has a very high level of ideological awareness."
Jun Qiulan smiled. "It can't be helped. We are following the path of your revolutionary ancestors. We are all descendants of the Chinese people."
Yan Jing chuckled, "Don't worry, we've reached an agreement with the higher-ups. I'll act as a middleman to reconcile the needs of both parties."
To some extent, it can be mutually beneficial.
As for Jun Qiulan's continued development in the entertainment industry, there is no need to worry about it.
To be honest, the higher authorities will feel more at ease knowing that Jun Qiulan can develop in the modern entertainment industry, as they will feel that this person is alive.
Yan Jing continued, "I will sort out the situation on your side during this period. They are willing to provide us with assistance to a certain extent. When the time comes, you can also help me check and fill in any gaps."
Jun Qiulan naturally agreed, but then she thought of Yan Jing vomiting that day.
He has been on the battlefield these days. He is the main general and the war situation is changing rapidly. Even his sleeping time has been drastically compressed and he can only take a simple nap.
There is no time and energy to care.
At this moment, I can't help feeling a little guilty.
"Are you feeling better? Are you having nightmares?"
Yan Jing laughed. He now felt that his psychological acceptance ability was really good.
After he returned with his grandfather, he went back to discuss the problem with Huo An. Huo An directly suggested that he see a psychologist in the military camp.
After chatting for more than an hour, he suddenly understood.
I no longer feel any discomfort in my heart.
Now, the war is not completely over.
After three days and three nights, both sides were exhausted.
The number of dead people was countless, and the air was still filled with the smell of blood.
Yan Jing now doesn't feel anything at all.
Jun Qiulan also breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm sorry I wronged you this time. Don't follow me to the battlefield next time."
"You feel sorry for me?"
"Of course I feel sad." Jun Qiulan said frankly.
His boyfriend lives in a peaceful era. How could he not feel sad when he saw such a bloody and violent scene?
Yan Jing stepped forward and said, "If you feel sorry for me, then please feel sorry for me. We haven't had that for a long time..."
He smelled the corner of Jun Qiulan's lips.
Jun Qiulan's face flushed slightly, "I haven't taken a shower yet."
He hadn't showered in days, and he was still wearing armor, so he could smell it.
Yan Jing: "Then let's go back and take a bath together."
Jun Qiulan nodded, and then went to General Ruan to instruct him on the follow-up arrangements.
They can't fight anymore for the time being. The enemy is defeated and they need time to rest.
General Ruan waved his hand and said, "Comrade Jun, go and have a rest. Leave this to me. Don't worry. When I went to the battlefield with General Huo before, I didn't let him worry about the post-war affairs. I, Old Ruan, took care of everything."
"Thank you for your help, General. I will be back tomorrow morning."
After returning to the modern era, Yan Jing washed off the dirt on his body and filled the bathtub with water.
"Take a dip and you'll feel better."
Jun Qiulan naturally did not refuse.
But good things for them are still a long way to go.
Jun Qiulan fell asleep while soaking in the bath. Yan Jing felt sorry for him, so he helped him dry and carried him back to bed.
In fact, he had never thought about what to do from the very beginning.
He also felt sorry for Lanlan.
In three days, Jun Qiulan slept for no more than six hours in total.
As the main general, you are always in a tense battle situation, which consumes a lot of physical, psychological and mental energy.
Jun Qiulan slept until dawn.
Yan Jing was lying on his side next to him, looking at him gently, "You're awake. Take a nap. Liu Yue's breakfast will not be served for more than 20 minutes."
Everything is arranged.
Jun Qiulan felt quite embarrassed, "Didn't we agree on this..."
Finally he fell asleep.
Jun Qiulan suddenly had an idea. Anyway, it was morning, and it was a natural physiological reaction that normal and healthy men would have.
"How about now?"
If we say that people in ancient times were conservative, Jun Qiulan, an ancient man, would indeed be shy at that time. Only when he was pushed too hard would he make some sounds that would make people's heart beat faster.
If we say that people in ancient times were open-minded, look at how he described the Hundred Days of Prostitution so frankly and directly.
Only Yan Jing gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Yue will be delivering breakfast in more than 20 minutes. Who are you looking down on?"
Jun Qiulan was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud in his bed.
He had forgotten.
Netizens say that men can only chat after they turn 25, but Yan Jing may have exercised well and maintained a good physical condition.
At least, in their previous experience, Yan Jing's time was quite long, and his performance in all aspects was very good. After all, Jun Qiulan's personal experience was pretty good. More than 20 minutes was indeed not enough.
Maybe it was because Jun Qiulan smiled too arrogantly, Yan Jing held him and kissed him for a long time.
After Liu Yue arrived, the two of them washed up and left the bedroom.
Discuss work while eating.
Liu Yue is one of us, so we don’t have to avoid her on many things, and we can also ask for her opinion.
And there is Jun Qiulan's work in modern times.
The previous variety show has been picked up for another season.
But filming will not start until the second half of the year, so there is no rush.
There are several good endorsements coming in now, and Xu Su asked Liu Yue to ask Jun Qiulan for his opinion.
Xu Su also figured it out and realized that Jun Qiulan probably had some secret.
But as long as it is not illegal or criminal, she will turn a blind eye and just work hard to make money.
Jun Qiulan pondered: "If the commercial shoot was two months from now, then we could definitely schedule it. But if we sign the contract and start shooting right away, I'm afraid we won't have time."
Liu Yue: "Can your problem be resolved in two months?"
She is worried.
After all, it was a rebellion.
In history, those who rebelled would fight for several years unless the strength gap between them was too great.
It seems that they started fighting at the beginning of the year, and it has only been more than half a year.
Jun Qiulan smiled and said, "They started a quarrel among themselves in the court, and now the powerful commander, Zheng Zian, has been killed by us."
Unless the other generals have already made a clear stand, they will choose to protect themselves at this time.
It is said that the emperor’s order is difficult to disobey, but who is the emperor now?
A young emperor who was personally supported by the empress, a decree of succession to the seventh prince issued by the cabinet, and Jun Qiulan's decree of succession flying all over the sky.
Who is the orthodox one?
Especially the news that they have weapons of mass destruction in their hands will definitely not be concealed this time.
Those generals and commanders are not fools. Do they really want to use swords, spears, and halberds to fight against their artillery?
Wouldn't that be wasting the lives of the soldiers in vain?
Didn’t you see that Zheng Zian, with an army of 150,000, only lasted three days?
I heard that they still don’t know how Zheng Zian died.
There are also rumors that Jun Qiulan had long been enlightened by the gods and already possessed the means of gods.
Moreover, after this war, Jun Qiulan and his colleagues' ideas and policies have spread in the military camp.
There are countless low-level soldiers who secretly want to join them.
No one is a fool.
Since we have to fight a war, we might as well follow good generals like Jun Qiulan and Huo Lian. At least we can have enough food to eat and have no worries during the war.
They didn't even have enough to eat before.
The contrast is simply too obvious.
"I will discuss the endorsement matter with Sister Xu Su."
Jun Qiulan nodded, "For the next one or two years, let Sister Xu Su focus on helping Brother Zhang Li develop."
Zhang Li has actually developed quite well so far, at least it is much better than when he was working alone as an extra in the past.
With the help of Yan Jing's movie, he can get a lot of small roles even though the movie has not been released yet.
Although he doesn't have as exaggerated resources as Jun Qiulan, as long as he continues to develop along this path, he will never lack roles to play in the future, and Zhang Li has realized his dream.
After the discussion, the two of them had their fill.
Yan Jing, as the middleman between the two worlds, also has things to do, so Jun Qiulan went back first.
We agreed to come back in the evening.
As Jun Qiulan expected, the battle was won completely.
Of the 150,000 troops, more than 50,000 surrendered voluntarily, and more than 30,000 were persuaded to surrender.
Many of them fought stubbornly but were annihilated, and many died in the artillery fire.
Of the 150,000 troops, less than 30,000 escaped.
As a result, Dasheng suffered a serious blow.
After Huo Lian came back, he suffered some minor injuries, but he did not rest. He only let the soldiers who were still able to fight rest for two days before setting off again.
Now that things have come to this, we naturally have to keep trying.
General Nguyen stayed behind to provide logistics, train the surrendered soldiers, do ideological work for them, reward meritorious soldiers, and settle the injured or sacrificed soldiers.
Everything was arranged perfectly.
Jun Qiulan was also relieved and followed Huo Lan all the way forward.
Perhaps the soldiers who escaped spread the news of their situation, and several cities opened their gates and respectfully welcomed them into the city.
In the court, not only is it a mess, it is now even more chaotic and dirty than drunken vomit.
While fighting for power, he also had to find a way to fight back against Jun Qiulan.
Jun Qiulan is fearless.
