    Dorgon still did not send troops to attack. After Lu Haoshan left Sichuan from Qipanguan, he arrived at Ningqiang Prefecture unimpeded.  As soon as he arrived at Ningqiang Prefecture City, what Lu Haoshan saw was a devastated place. Looking around, there were either broken walls or tombs piled quietly on the land. A gust of wind blew up and picked up pieces of paper money scattered on the ground.  Adding a sense of desolation.  If there is a spirit after death, will this be a salute to the Governor-General whom the loyal souls in the underground respect most in their hearts?  For some reason, Lu Haoshan felt very heavy. He was so heavy that he couldn't breathe. He was so heavy that he seemed to have an illusion: his feet were on soil soaked in blood. Sun Xiong and other soldiers were not dead. He must be calling his name loudly.  , there is even a lingering smell of blood in the air. Looking at the collapsed city walls, blood-stained stones, and graves all over the mountains and plains, one can imagine the brutality of the battle that night.  A group of people stood in front of Sun Xiong¡¯s grave, standing quietly. No one spoke for a long time. The scene was somewhat touching. The atmosphere was until an old face appeared and broke the silence.  "I will see you later, sir." Lu Haoshan came and inspected the Ningqiang Prefecture battlefield site, so Yan Lin naturally came out to pay his respects.  Nighthawk found Yan Lin and naturally reported the information to Lu Haoshan immediately. Speaking of Yan Lin's affairs, Lu Haoshan knew about it earlier than Li Dingguo. Looking at Yan Lin who was missing a hand and looked depressed, it was hard to  Imagine the high-spirited Yan Changfengfengwen in his memory, and connect w¡À¨R¨Rt Lin. Lu Haoshan knew that Yan Lin was useless.  In the battle in Ningqiangzhou, it was not just his left hand that was damaged, but also his self-confidence and pride. If he never got out of this shadow, then his life would be over.  After thinking about it, Lu Haoshan quickly helped him up and said with a look of remorse: "General Yan, please stand up and let you go deep alone. You are operating under the eyes of the Qing army. I am sorry for you. I am sorry for you." "  No, sir, it was our carelessness and it was the villain's fault that we failed to keep our guard up. Please punish me severely." Yan Lin knelt down and cried bitterly.  This is not Yan Lin's pretense. After this battle, he would rather die than live.  He is still alive now because he doesn't want to let down the efforts and sacrifices of his brothers. If Lu Haoshan executes him, Yan Lin will still be grateful.  Lu Haoshan lifted him up with all his strength and said with a serious face: "Victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists. I can't blame you for this. Being able to blow up the arsenal calmly under such circumstances and not fall into the hands of the Qing army is already a feat."  It's a wonderful achievement. If that batch of arms falls into the hands of the Qing army, the consequences will be disastrous. Not only will you not be guilty, but you will have merit."  Lu Haoshan said loudly: "You worked hard for Sichuan, bled and were injured for Sichuan, and sacrificed for Sichuan. These Sichuan folks and fathers will never forget it, and neither will this officer. They are my soldiers for one day, and no matter what, I will be responsible to the end.  I will raise those who are alive and bury those who are dead. I will never let the souls of the dead heroes live in peace. " These words were spoken to Yan Lin and also to the soldiers present, so that the soldiers would have no worries.  Only when fighting begins will we work harder.  Sure enough, after hearing these words, the soldiers present were moved and their eyes became filled with perseverance. Many of them puffed up their chests. Even Yan Lin burst into tears when he heard this: Many people wanted to protect their reputation.  , when they fail, they will shift the responsibility to their subordinates and let them take the blame. However, my master is just the opposite. He takes the initiative to shoulder the responsibility and protects his subordinates behind him.  ¡°This is the person who is worth working for and loyal to. Many people present were moved at once.  Yan Lin suddenly knelt down and said loudly: "Sir, I have a request. Please grant it." "Say it." Lu Haoshan said calmly.  Incumbents like to show their generosity and magnanimity in front of the people below, but this generosity and magnanimity are also limited. If the requests made by the subordinates are too excessive, it will not be tolerated, such as what official position he wants and how much treasure he wants.  If the fiefdom, or the power of the incumbent, is required, wouldn't that be a mess?  Therefore, Lu Haoshan did not agree immediately, but let the other party put it forward first, and then made a plan based on the other party's request, so he only said "you say", without agreeing or denying, leaving enough space to move forward and retreat freely.  In addition, it also looks grand.  Unfortunately, all this effort was in vain. Yan Lin said with a serious face: "Sir, I hope to guard the graves of my brothers and die with my remaining life. Please help me." "General Yan" Lu Haoshan said kindly:  "I won't treat them badly. I have my own arrangements for those who recruit graves. You can go back to Chengdu and I will arrange a casual position for you so that you can use your spare energy." Faced with Lu Haoshan's kindness, Yan Lin did not appreciate it.  , with a stubborn look on his face, he said: "The little man's heart is dead, please help me. Otherwise, I will never be able to kneel down." Lu Haoshan said nothing.?? signaled to the people on the side to persuade, so Li Dingguo, Tang Qiang and others stepped forward to persuade. Even Pubu followed Lu Haoshan and joined the ranks of the persuaders. Unfortunately, Yan Lin's heart was as hard as iron and he refused to let go.  So, I can only temporarily comply with his request.  ¡°We¡¯ll wait until the people change their minds in the future.  After someone helped Yan Lin down, Lu Haoshan sighed and said: "What a good soldier, the Manchu Qing owes us another blood debt." After saying that, Lu Haoshan said with a ferocious expression: "This blood debt, the Manchu Qing owes us  The Eight Banners have to pay for it with the blood of their entire clan." Tang Qiang looked at the densely packed graves and said with some sigh: "The clothes and brocade have to go back to their hometown, and the beggars have to go back home. The fallen leaves return to their roots, sir, wait until we return in victory.  After that, let¡¯s move the bones of these soldiers back to Sichuan.¡± ¡°Falling leaves return to their roots¡± is a legend of the Chinese nation. No matter where you wander, at the moment when your life disappears, what you most want to return to is to return to the place you are familiar with and where you grew up.  Tang Qiang's words were also out of good intentions.  When Lu Haoshan heard this, he suddenly remembered a poem by Gong Zizhen and chanted: "Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains, so why return them wrapped in horse leather. In this great river and mountain, wherever loyal souls cannot be buried, let them rest in peace here, and don't disturb their peace.  Build this place into a cemetery, so that the brothers can still be together after death, and it can also serve as a warning and education function." As soon as Lu Haoshan said this, everyone expressed their approval. After some discussion, a large-scale cemetery was established.  The Martyrs Cemetery took shape. After that, Lu Haoshan led his troops to pay homage solemnly before leading his troops to move forward.  "Sir, where are we going?" Li Dingguo asked curiously.  Lu Haoshan said without hesitation: "Dingjun Mountain" (To be continued) ps: I have been preparing for the driving test these days, practicing every day, and can only cut corners for a few days
