An Unbelievable Reality!
Seeing Li Chaoge nod in agreement, Li Jing was relieved.
He knew his daughter very well. Li Chaoge was the kind of person who couldn't be bothered with anything. With his daughter's temper, she wouldn't let it go if she knew that An Ding's death might have been in vain.
However, those who could do such a thing were at least on the same level as him. Li Chaoge couldn't deal with such a person at all.
So Li Jing was worried that Li Chaoge would act rashly.
Fortunately, his daughter had listened to his advice. Otherwise, Li Jing would have considered whether to ground Li Chaoge. After all, losing his freedom was better than losing his life.
"What happened after that?"
" The cities of the Iron Army of Andong were occupied by the Turks," Li Chaoge asked Li Jing." Did we take them back?" Had it always been occupied by the Turks?”
When Li Jing heard this, a strange expression appeared on his face. He said,"What happened after that, you definitely can't imagine how mysterious it was.”
"What?" Li Chaoge looked at Li Jing in confusion.
Li Jing said," I told you at the time that the Great Tang was plagued by internal and external troubles. The Turks were eyeing it covetously, and Tuyuhun had repeatedly invaded its borders. The Great Tang was also plagued by natural disasters. It could be said that the situation was extremely grim. Under such circumstances, the Great Tang was unable to engage in large-scale battles, and the people could not bear such torment.”
"Thus, even though the Imperial Court is incomparably furious, Andong City has never been recaptured, so it has always been occupied by the Turks.”
Li Chaoge said anxiously," How can we do that? That's the base of the Tang Hero Army, and the remains of the Iron Army of Andong are buried there. How can we let the Turks take it? How can our heroic souls rest in peace?"”
"Don't worry," Li Jing said with a smile."Listen to me. What I'm about to say next is truly mysterious."”
"Although the Great Tang is unable to send troops to recapture Andong City due to the current situation, Andong City is haunted," he said.”
"Haunted?" Li Chaoge was stunned.
"I don't know exactly what happened," Li Jing said."In short, our spies have discovered that after the Turkic army took over Andong City, dozens or even hundreds of people have died every few days. Some of these people have been poisoned, some have had their throats slit. In short, there are many causes of death, but no matter how the Turks investigate, they can't find out who did it.”
"And even if the Turks increased their patrols, they still couldn't stop the deaths that occurred every few days. As time passed, more and more people died. In one night, more than a thousand Turkic soldiers died!”
"The Turks were furious. They swore to find the murderer, but they turned Andong City upside down and still couldn't find anyone suspicious, and the deaths continued.”
"Just like that, in the year since the Turks occupied Andong City, the Turks have suffered one hundred thousand casualties. This is an army of one hundred thousand, and if our Great Tang wants to annihilate this army, we'll have to sacrifice at least the same number of people!”
"Moreover, the Turks didn't have as many people as our Great Tang, so they simply couldn't afford to suffer such unexplainable casualties. In the end, the Turks were enraged and forced into a corner. Afraid that more casualties would occur, they set fire to Andong City and forced their army to leave.”
When Li Jing talked about this matter, he still felt that it was unbelievable. He said,"Because we couldn't find out who did it, it was labeled as 'haunted' and became an unsolved case.”
"Some people say that it was the heroic spirits of the Tranquil East Iron Army seeking their lives, but I don't believe in the so-called vengeful spirits. I believe that someone must have done it, but no one knows who did it.”
Li Chaoge was stunned by Li Jing's story.
Her almond-shaped eyes widened and her mouth was slightly agape. It was as if she was listening to a fairy tale.
"You can…do this?" Li Chaoge shouted.
"I couldn't believe it at first, but that's the truth," said Li Jing with a smile.”
"This…this is too unbelievable.”
Li Chaoge couldn't help but exclaim. Suddenly, she thought of something and said,""Father, you're saying that the incident happened within a year of the Turks occupying Andong City?”
"What's wrong?" Li Jing nodded. Is there a problem?"
Li Chaoge's eyes flashed with surprise.""Andong City was breached a year ago, so it shouldn't have happened long ago.”
"Not long after the Turks were forced to leave Andong City, that fellow suddenly kidnapped me. He had to appear at this time of all times. So…is it possible…"
Hearing Li Chaoge's speculation, Li Jing also stood up.
His eyes flickered a few times and he suddenly said,""That's right, it must be him! He was the only one capable of killing the commander of the Turkic army and coming and going as he pleased.”
"The timing is right. If he is really a member of the Iron Army of Andong, then he has the motive to do this.”
After confirming his speculation, Li Jing was really shocked to the extreme.
Just how terrifying was this mysterious person?
With his own strength, if the Imperial Court did not make a move, he would personally take revenge.
As far as Li Jing knew, those who had occupied Andong City were the Turkic soldiers who had attacked Andong City.
Therefore, this mysterious man was completely relying on his own strength to avenge the thirteen thousand soldiers of the Iron Army of Tranquil East!
Moreover, he had succeeded.
This…this…
Was he still human?
Li Jing didn't even dare to think about it, but he did it.
This really shocked him.
Moreover, it also gave him a deep understanding of this person's determination to take revenge.
That person could spend a year killing them one by one like boiling frogs in warm water. He could take his revenge bit by bit.
After he had avenged the Turks, he would return to Chang 'an. Presumably, he wouldn't give up just because of the high status of his enemies.
Li Jing was now very sure that that person would definitely cause a bloody storm in Chang 'an.
Chang 'an…might not be peaceful anymore…
