Under the Yinyang Pass, the voices of people were boiling, and the war horses neighed.

The two armies collided with each other, shuttling like needles and threads, and soon it was impossible to distinguish whether they were enemies or comrades.

The drums of war beat like thunder, surging with the blood in my heart.

A pawn was pushed by the crowd and involuntarily rushed forward, hesitant and confused......

An enemy soldier rushed towards him, and the combat knife in his hand flashed a cold light, and slashed directly at his head, but before the knife fell on his head, the enemy's head was completely pierced by a spear, and the powerful force directly made his entire body fly backwards.

A man appeared beside the pawn and said coldly, "If you don't want to die, kill the enemy." ”

After saying this, the man carried his spear and rode his horse to continue to rush forward to kill.

The pawn gritted his teeth, yelled to keep up with the horse, and then raised his knife and cut down an enemy, blood splattered on his body instantly, and on his face, he felt that the blood was more burning than boiling water, but he didn't have time to feel it, because one of the enemies rushed up again, so he could only continue to raise his knife and slash......

This was repeated repeatedly, and soon his body was covered with blood, and there was only a trace of bloodlust left in his numb eyes.

This is the man of the Tang Kingdom, before he has time to undergo any training, he is directly pushed to the battlefield, and then in the rush and killing, he becomes a soldier, of course, more of them die.

Liu Dongping is a veteran, but it is the first time he has participated in such a large-scale battle, and he knows very well that the victory or defeat of this battle will determine the ownership of this Yang Pass behind him, and will determine whether the Tang Kingdom has fewer dead or more dead.

Now that the battle situation in the entire southeast battlefield is a foregone conclusion, all the troops will be concentrated in Yanyang Pass to make the last fight, which is a battle against the water, and it is also the first time that the Tang State has taken the initiative to attack the Song army in the past six months.

A slashing saber suddenly swept over, and the war horse under him suddenly fell towards the yellow sand, and his body flew up directly, his body swirled in the air, and the spear in his hand swirled in the air, nailing a Song soldier to death on the yellow sand.

He turned around and glanced at the city tower of Yanyang Pass, there were only four burly men on the city tower, bare-chested and constantly beating the war drums, sweat refracted in the sun, today's drums will continue to sound until the last Tang army falls.

"This battle will be lost, but even if it is lost, it must also play the momentum of the Tang soldiers. ”

This was the last order given by the old general Wan Shi'an after receiving the order, Liu Dongping was by the old general's side at that time, and with him, there was a guy named Feng Duo.

The two of them said that when the war was completely over, they must call the guy named Mo Yan and drink a glass of celebration wine with them, but unfortunately now it seems that there is no chance.

At the moment when he lost his mind, the comrade carrying the battle flag in front of him was directly killed by an arrow, and the battle flag was cut off by a Song soldier and slowly floated to the ground.

Liu Dongping directly threw the spear in his hand, and the spear passed through the rope of the battle flag, nailed to the ground, and shook violently.

Liu Dongping took out the war knife at his waist, quickly came to the battle flag, killed those enemies who rushed to the battle flag with his right hand, held the spear in his left hand, pulled up the battle flag, and then removed the battle robe on his body, tied the battle flag to himself, and continued to rush forward to kill......

At dusk, the news of the breach of Yinyang Pass spread quickly, almost all the soldiers defending the city were killed, and many scattered troops could not be collected, and the casualties of this battle could not be counted.

As a result, the southeastern war between the two countries, which had been stalemate for half a year, ended with the defeat of the Tang State, and a gap was opened in the southeast gateway of the Tang State, and the Song army continued to move north.

And according to this, in Yanjing, the capital of the Tang Kingdom, thousands of miles away, at this moment, an old man wearing a golden red python robe walked out of the palace gate, and there was no expression on his face full of traces carved by the years.

Many officials would salute respectfully when they passed by the old man, and then whispered when they walked away.

Just above the court, in the face of His Majesty the Emperor's questioning, and in the face of the doubts of many ministers, the old man only said one sentence, "The Mo family will fight for the Tang Kingdom to the last person and shed the last drop of blood." ”

Of course, His Majesty the Emperor will not be satisfied with this answer, because what he wants is victory, not what the Mo family will do. The ministers in the court will not be satisfied, because what they want is security, and they can continue to enjoy the security of glory and wealth.

But the old man could only say that, and in addition, he didn't dare to make more guarantees, and he didn't need to give anyone a clear explanation, because those names in the Mo family library were the best explanations.

Ten years ago, he led the Mo family, led the Tang State, and repelled the Song State, but ten years later, he was not sure, because he was already old, and he would feel out of breath when he was so old that the previous dynasty would feel out of breath, because the Mo family no longer had men who could go to the battlefield, and the Tang State was the same.

The old man looked up at the sky, and after a long time, he paced down the stairs and walked back to Mo's house.

In front of the Mo family, the two maids walked out quickly, supporting the old lady of the Mo family to enter the gate, every step seemed careful and cautious, once the old lady fell, it would be an unbearable loss for the entire Mo family and even the entire Tang Kingdom.

As soon as the old man entered the door, he heard the noise in the hall of the Mo family, and the old man couldn't help frowning: "What's the matter?"

The two maidservants glanced at each other, and the man on the left said, "I heard that the southern war was lost, and the masters are arguing about who to send to the battle. ”

The old man frowned and walked towards the hall.

As the old man walked in, everyone stopped arguing and saluted the old man.

The old man walked to the main seat, sat down and did not speak, and everyone stood respectfully to the side, silent.

The old man glanced around and said indifferently: "What's the noise, I'll listen to it." ”

Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you, and after a long time, a man stepped forward and said, "Uncle, what did His Majesty the Emperor say?"

The old man said directly: "The Mo family organizes training, and any child of the Mo family is not allowed to participate in the government, don't you know?"

The man hurriedly said, "No, I just want to know what my father plans to do next." ”

The old man looked at him and asked, "If I let you go into battle in armor now, will you go?"

Everyone laughed and said: "It's not that I don't dare, it's just that if I go, no one will take care of the family's business, and once the business stops, it will become a problem for the family to eat." ”

The old man nodded, looked at the others and asked, "What about you, who is willing to go, and who dares to go?"

Everyone began to talk again, and after a long time, a man spoke: "If you want me to see it, or let Mo Yan come back, as the eldest son of the Mo family, at this time, he has the responsibility to go up." ”

The rest of the people nodded and said: "What I said is that he won't live long anyway, standing up at this time can not only do his part for the Tang Kingdom, but also save the reputation of the Mo family, and it is not in vain for him to be the eldest son of the Mo family." ”

The old man looked at them again and said, "That's not what you thought when you hunted him down. ”

The man who spoke first said: "Uncle, you also know that what Mo Yan took away was the forbidden property of the Mo family, and we chased and killed him, not for the entire Mo family, but now we are calling him back, for the Mo family, from beginning to end, we have no selfish intentions." ”

The rest of the people nodded their heads.

The old man shook his head, "I have already lost a son, so I will not let my grandson die on the battlefield again, so I will not let him come back, you will die of this heart." ”

The man frowned and said, "Then who will go on the expedition instead of the Mo family?"

The old man got up and said, "If you don't want to go, then I'll go." ”

After the old man finished speaking, he was supported by two maids and walked outside.

Everyone frowned, if it was really the old man who went out in person, no matter what the final result was, they, the men of the Mo family, would become a joke.

At this time, a girl in purple walked up and said, "I'll go for my brother." ”

Everyone was stunned and turned to look at the girl standing in front of the old man.

The old man frowned and said, "Xiaoyu, what nonsense are you talking about, the Mo family has not yet reached the point where they want to let women go to the battlefield for men." ”

The purple-clothed girl shook her head, "This is my brother's obligation and responsibility as the eldest son of the Mo family, my brother is not here, so I will replace him, because in the entire Mo family, no one has this qualification, and no one is worthy of taking his place." ”

The old man was stunned, and then said with a smile: "It is worthy of my Mo Heng's granddaughter, grandpa agreed." ”

As soon as the old man said this, everyone in the room frowned.

It's just that the old man goes to the battlefield, after all, the old man is the backbone of the Mo family, the backbone of the Tang Kingdom, and it is understandable, but if a woman is allowed to go to the battlefield, then the men of the entire Mo family will not be able to raise their heads in the Tang Kingdom in the future.

The man from before stepped forward and was about to speak, when the old man said directly: "If you don't dare to go, don't say more." ”

Everyone shut up, they all knew very well that what the old man said had never changed, as long as he hadn't fallen, the entire Mo family would still be in charge of him, and the entire Tang Kingdom would still have to rely on him.

The old man continued: "Pass the order, immediately build a battle armor for the cuttlefish, early tomorrow morning, the cuttlefish will replace the entire Mo family and go to the south, I want to let those southern barbarians know that even if there are no men in my Tang Kingdom, I can drive them back to the south, and I also want to let the Tang Kingdom know that even if the men of the Mo family are dead, the women of the Mo family can still lead them to the final victory." ”

The old man took out a token from his bosom, handed it to Mo Yu, and said softly: "From this moment on, the entire army of the Tang Kingdom will be at your disposal. ”

Mo Yu took the token and said in a firm tone: "Mo Yu will not disappoint Grandpa, nor will he disappoint the people of Tang Kingdom!"

She looked at the token in her hand, and there was no emotional turmoil in her eyes.

The Mo Yu Order is the highest military order of the Tang Kingdom, and there are only two pieces of the entire Mo family, and the old man of the Mo family has one piece, sitting in Yanjing, and Mo Yuan has one piece, rushing to the front line.

Later, Mo Yuan's piece was handed over to Mo Yan by Mo Heng, and left the Mo family with the slaughter and "Ghost Town", and now this last piece is in Mo Yu's hands.

The two jade plaques represent not only the deployment of the entire Tang army, but also the highest voice of the entire Mo family, and even the future of the entire Tang Kingdom.

Mo Heng, the pillar of the Tang Kingdom, this figure who even His Majesty the Emperor dared to kill, now handed over all this to the pair of brothers and sisters, if he is either old and confused, or he is crazy.

A poor worm who is destined to live no more than twenty years old, holding the Moyu Order, what's the use, if you don't get it right, you will have to go with his people in the end, disappear in a place where no one cares, a lonely girl who locks herself in the room all day, with the Moyu Order, she is going to lead the Tang Kingdom to the expedition, not to mention the jokes of the Song Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom will think it is a joke.

It's just that the old man has already made up his mind, so what they say is superfluous.

The old man looked at the purple-clothed girl and said softly, "Let's go see your mother tonight." ”

Mo Yu shook his head, "Still not going." ”

The old man didn't say much, and was helped by the two maids and walked to the study.

In front of the door of the study, an old man in gray was lying on a bench and said mockingly: "Don't be so angry when you are old, beware that you can't last a few years, if you fall, this Tang Kingdom will really be finished." ”

Mo Heng waved his hand at the two maids, and the two maids saluted and retreated.

Mo Heng walked towards the gray-clothed old man, actually hugged his fists and saluted, and then said: "Early death and late death, it is also a death, this life is given to Tang Guo, even if I still want to make some efforts, I don't have that strength." ”

The old man in gray sat up, nodded and said, "You, you are too persistent, if you can let go, you won't be stranded for half a lifetime and can't go further." ”

Mo Heng smiled bitterly: "What about the Holy Realm, in the face of the general trend, isn't it the same helpless?"

The old man in gray shook his head, "I can't tell you clearly. ”

He gave Mo Heng a place and asked, "Now that you have left everything to the young man, you still can't let go?"

Mo Heng sighed and said, "How can you easily let go of what you are holding onto." ”

Neither of them was speechless.

After a long time, Mo Heng asked, "Mo Yan's problem can really be solved?"

The old man in gray shook his head and said: "It still depends on his own creation, I can only show him the way, as for how far he can go, I can't guarantee it, but this brother and sister are quite interesting." ”

Mo Heng sighed with emotion: "It doesn't matter how far you go, as long as you are safe, I am worthy of his dead father." ”

The old man in gray frowned and said, "Are you admitting defeat?"

Mo Heng shook his head and said, "No matter what the ending is, as long as he lives, I will win." ”

The old man in gray nodded, "Really." ”

Mo Heng asked again: "Is there any movement in the things downstairs?"

The old man in gray shook his head and said, "I'm still in Yanjing, I'm okay for the time being, if I leave, it's hard to say." ”

Mo Heng suddenly sighed and said: "Although it is a lifelong obsession, in the end, I still can't escape selfishness. ”

The old man in gray shook his head and said: "I don't think so, compared to the whole world, the Tang Kingdom is still too small after all, if you lose a country to protect the world, it is not selfish." ”

Mo Heng shook his head and said, "I'm not as far as Lord Dean thought. ”

The old man in gray said noncommittally: "So I am the dean, one of the thousand saints, and the one who determines the rules of this heaven and earth, and if you die, you are a hero, and you can't even open a heart knot, and you can only choose to guard the Tang Kingdom until you die." ”

Mo Heng said with emotion: "Life has all kinds of flavors, each has its place, and death has its place." ”

The old man in gray nodded, "It's good to have no regrets." ”

......

......

Night.

On a hill on the outskirts of Yanjing, there is a temple, the temple is not large, and the temple name is Tianyin.

A woman in a monk's robe kneels in front of a solemn Buddha statue and gently taps the wooden fish with a crisp and ethereal sound.

The fragrance is wisps, and the Sanskrit sound is sound.

The woman stopped tapping, and two lines of tears rolled out of her closed eyes.

Ten years ago, she left the Mo family because her husband died in the southern battlefield.

She clearly remembered what he had said to her when he was leaving, that he would come back after killing the enemy, but she had only waited for a name, and had not even seen the body.

She doesn't blame anyone, because she knows that this is the fate that a man from the Mo family should have.

So she chose the empty door, the green light yellow roll and the wooden fish, because she didn't want to see her son go to the battlefield one day, and she didn't want to wait for her son's name.

Fortunately, her son was born with a strange illness and did not have to bear the things that a man of the Mo family should bear, but fortunately, there was the dean who showed him the way......

She felt that as long as he could be safe, then no matter where he was, no matter how much she missed him, it was worth it.

She originally thought that as long as he left the Mo family, whether it was the Tang Kingdom or the Mo family, everything had nothing to do with him, but early tomorrow morning, her daughter would go out in place of her son......

She really couldn't understand why her husband died, but her children still couldn't escape such a fate.

"Buddha, why?"

She looked at the idol and asked in a low voice.

The Buddha statue still had a kind smile on its face and did not reply.

......

......

Following.

Mo Heng stood in front of the Mo family, and beside him, all those who had the blood of the Mo family flowing in their bodies, whether men or women, young and old, all stood up in turn.

A young girl walked slowly out of the gate and came to the crowd.

Mo Heng looked at the girl, there was no sadness on his face, or his weather-beaten face could no longer show sadness.

As soon as Mo Heng raised his hand, someone suddenly walked up with a sword in his hand and handed it to Mo Yu with both hands.

Then two more maids held the battle armor and walked in front of Mo Yu, and then Mo Heng stepped forward, personally took off the battle armor, put it on Mo Yu, and helped her tie the battle robe, before saying, "Grandpa is waiting for you to return victoriously." ”

Mo Yu nodded, "I'll bring my brother back with me." ”

Mo Heng raised his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”

Mo Yu saluted the old man, then turned around, the long sword in her hand came out of its sheath by itself, and she stepped on the long sword and went away in the air, and at the same time, more than ten strong men rose into the air at the same time, followed by the purple clothes.

When this group left Yanjing, a thousand cavalry turned over neatly and headed south.

In the direction of the imperial city, an ordinary-looking girl dressed in luxurious clothes, standing on the city wall, looking at the southern sky in a daze, said after a long time: "Mo Yu must be the best-looking woman in our Tang Kingdom, and only she is worthy of such a color." ”
