The Wind Rises Six
The Wind Rises (6)
After the rain, Luoxiao Mountain is as green as ink, and the breeze slowly sweeps through the forest, with a little coolness, but also with a bit of the smell of grass and trees, which makes people intoxicated and confused in the world.
Along the trail down the mountain, two horses walked one after the other. Listening to the sound of the spring, listening to the birdsong, listening to the bustle and loneliness after the new rain in the empty mountain.
Walking in front is a tall woman, with relatively thick eyebrows and eyes, not as gentle as the Jiangnan woman's light moth eyebrows, but with a bit of masculinity, it looks unique.
The man not far behind her was born with a face like a crown of jade, a straight nose and a square mouth, a white horse, a plain robe, and a good appearance of a Jiangnan scholar.
The two of them left each other along the way, except for the occasional pointer at the fork in the road, when the man occasionally pointed in the direction, and there was no half of a conversation. But the distance between them has never widened. Sometimes the horse behind is slow, and the woman in front will subconsciously bring the reins and wait a minute. Sometimes the horse in front of him walks slowly, and the man behind him slows down and distances themselves again.
Those who are in the know know that the two are enemies who share the sky. I didn't know it, I thought it was a young couple who went back to their parents' house together, and they quarreled on the way because of trivial matters, and they were angry, stalemate with each other, waiting for the first to apologize.
Although the mountain road is long, there is an end after all, and the man behind gently raised his wrist and took the horse's head. The woman in front seemed to be frightened, suddenly looked back, looked at it hatefully, and finally spoke, but it was a provocative word, "Thank you General Lin for sending him away, he will meet on the battlefield every day, and the little woman should repay the virtue of treating each other on this day!" ”
"You're welcome, if there is a battlefield encounter, Lin will naturally not show mercy. I just hope that Miss Tana will be careful along the way not to reveal her Mongol identity. Otherwise, the "moral politics" performed by the Mongolian army in Jiangnan will be returned to you by the rural people! The white-robed scholar gently arched his hand on horseback, and replied-for-tat.
That's right, they are Tana, who was captured by Ximen Biao, and Lin Qi, the commander of the Jiangxi Independent Standard of the Broken Army. Two people who can't and shouldn't be involved, but are pulled together by fate.
"In the world of the Great Yuan, the Menghan family, the people in the countryside will not be as rude as you thieves!" Tana raised his eyebrows angrily, raised his horsewhip, and pointed at Lin Qi and scolded.
Lin Qi's face also quickly floated a few wisps of clouds, sneered, and replied: "Menghan family, haha, it's the first time I've heard of this. That's right, it's indeed a family, but in the eyes of the Great Yuan Court, you Mongolians are the masters of the family, take whatever you want, and smash whatever you want. I, the Han people, are slaves and domestic animals, and we can kill them as much as we want. The girl can not believe my words, change back to the Mongolian costume and try, within ten miles, the people under the mountain will also shoot you into meat sauce with one brick and one brick! ”
"You!" Tana didn't know what to say next, and was only going to say thank you, but who knew that opening her mouth would turn into a bicker. Does it make sense to argue like this? After all, it is the people who protect themselves in the mountains in every possible way to protect themselves. Don't say a few face-saving words, the dignified hero, the daughter of Jiangxi Youcheng Dachun, was actually released by a southerner with the face of charity. She couldn't swallow it.
Thinking about the past ten days in Luo Xiao Mountain, Tana felt as if she had a nightmare. When I woke up, the whole world changed, including my previous views on the people of this world, and my belief in respecting the Mongols.
When she woke up from her horse and found herself a captive of Simon Biao, Tana had already prepared for the worst.
According to the Mongol rules, the life and dignity of those who are defeated on the battlefield no longer belong to them. The other party can bully, insult, or even abuse and kill at will. It doesn't matter what he is, whether he is male or female.
This is the law of the steppe, and tribes plunder each other's cattle, sheep, livestock and women. Only by plundering can we ensure that some of these tribes can grow and become the overlords of the steppes and deserts.
It was only by plundering and conquering that so many tribes were integrated by Temujin Khan. They are connected by blood and have achieved the unparalleled foundation of the Mongols in the world.
The Mongols do not have such a strong concept of chastity, and even if Tana is forcibly adopted as a wife by Simon Biao, in the future, her father will lead the army to exterminate this gang of bandits, and she can still marry a heroic husband in dignity. No one cares what happened in the past as long as she wanted to.
When Temujin Khan's wife was kidnapped, she was pregnant with Liujia when she was rescued, and Temujin Khan still treated her as before, making her a lifelong Kedun (concubine), the head of more than 100 women in the harem. More than 80 percent of the more than 100 concubines of Temujin Khan were snatched back, the daughters and wives of their enemies. Temujin killed their husbands and fathers, but still had the confidence to conquer them.
The daughter of the prairie, when she was born, understood this rule. So they don't like to cry, but they know to push away their brothers and sisters who are snatching milk with their hands.
Tana even thought of how to face the butcher's knife, laughing at the cowardice and incompetence of these southerners, who would only ambush and did not dare to fight head-on. Or how to compromise and become Ximen Biao's wife, and then find a way to sow discord and ruin his entire cottage. He even mastered the law of his activities, and cooperated with the officers and soldiers of the imperial court to suppress bandits.
She only didn't expect that Ximen Biao didn't even look at her, so he gave her as a gift to Lin Qi.
What she didn't expect was that Lin Qi actually refused this gift, and did not allow others to touch her, and ordered her to be released. For this decision that made the public angry, Lin Qi even did not hesitate to face the accusations of all his subordinates.
General Lin Qi is not a soft-hearted person, Tana knows this very well. Because Lin Qi had just finished arguing with Ximen Biao and others, in front of her, he ordered all 173 Mongolian prisoners to be beheaded.
As for the reason for letting her go, it was not because she was good-looking, nor because she was Dachun's daughter. It's because Lin Qi believes that the heroes in Tana's mind, such as Temujin, Kublai Khan, and Dachun, are uncivilized beasts; The Han people are not, they are people with thousands of years of civilization inheritance, and they don't do things that only well-dressed beasts do.
In Tana's original consciousness, the Mongols were first-class heroes, invincible in the world. Southerners are the most inferior slaves, mean, shameless, cowardly. The words on the lips are more beautiful than the other, and the things are more insidious and obscene than the other. She has always believed that her thoughts are correct, and the actions of those great Confucians and celebrities have indeed confirmed her judgment.
But in front of Lin Qi and Ximen Biao, she suddenly found that she was wrong, they were upright and did what they said. And in their eyes, they and their own people are synonymous with barbarism, ignorance, and blood-drinking.
"Barbarism and nobility are human deeds, not human blood!" In front of everyone, Lin Qi said.
This greatly hurt Tana's self-esteem, and in the days that followed, she tried to provoke Lin Qi and Ximen Biao in the hope that they would kill her and take back this mercy from above.
And this pair of brothers who refused to be fooled in order to deal with what she had quarreled about. One led the soldiers down the hill and drifted away; The other, let himself provoke in every possible way, and only said, "The battlefield is not a place for women to come, and to be a woman, you have to teach your husband and children at home." Only when men are incapable of doing so do they let women go to war. Only uncivilized savages find dignity from a woman's belly! ”
She ridiculed the slaughter of prisoners by no means more charitable than the Mongols. Lin Qi asked rhetorically, who invited the Mongolians to Jiangnan?
She argued that the Mongols went south because the Great Song Dynasty was corrupt and cowardly, and Jia Rudao was authoritarian and misguided the country. And Lin Qi said, "The decay of our Great Song Dynasty is our own business, and naturally the loyal people of the Song Dynasty will solve it by themselves." If there is chaos in a person's house, it cannot be an excuse for robbers to take advantage of the fire and rob! She was speechless.
Not only Lin Qi was like this, but even the soldiers of the Broken Army who were in charge of monitoring her turned hatred into pride in their eyes. Raising his chin all day long, as if he were facing a brainless idiot.
This feeling of being discriminated against drove her crazy. The contrast between the identities of the clouds and hell made her slowly open her eyes and begin to observe, observing everything in Luo Xiao Mountain.
Through observation, she found that the soldiers here were completely different from the Mongol army. They are a little less fierce than the Mongolian warriors, but a little more confident. They don't have the servile faces and knees of those Nan Confucians, but with a kind of self-esteem that looks directly at everything.
In Luo Xiao Mountain, the two words that Tana hears the most are equality. This is completely different from the way of thinking in her clan, where heroes control everything, and everyone else is the minions of heroes. All this made her curious. But before she could really understand the connotation, Wen Tianxiang's letter and Dachun's ransom arrived. Lin Qi let her go, and was afraid that someone would be disgruntled, so he intercepted her on the way and personally sent her out of the mountain.
"Okay, this is the other side of Luo Xiao Mountain, not far ahead, is Anfu, your father's people are there to pick you up. You can go to Jizhou by water, and then take a boat to Ganzhou, all the way under your father's control! ”
Lin Qi looked at Tana's pale face and smiled, not like this kind of barbarian woman.
"Thank you!" Tana shook her head, suppressing the anger and confusion in her heart, squeezing out a word as thin as a gnat from deep within her teeth. The separation is imminent, whether it is hatred or anger, after all, you have to say a kind word, otherwise after leaving, in the eyes of this Nanren general, I am afraid that I will always be a barbarian who does not know etiquette. If this is not in the south of the Yangtze River, but on the grassland, it is also a very shameful thing to be known that you do not repay your kindness.
"You're welcome, go back and persuade your father, restrain your subordinates, and do less hurtful things. Do unto others as you would have them do to you. In the future, when you withdraw from Jiangnan, the life of the exiled people will be better. Lin Qi responded lightly, I don't know why, he found that his cultivation today was surprisingly poor, as long as he spoke, he liked to bring a bit of sarcasm.
"Hmm!" This time, Tana made an exception and didn't talk back. Biting his lower lip, he thought about it, and loyally mustered up the courage to say, "One day the general is down, you can come to my house to drink a bowl of milk tea." Tana will be a guest of honor! ”
This is already the most polite farewell word she can think of, this group of bandits in Luo Xiao Mountain will soon face annihilation. Tana, who has been in the army for many years, can see the importance of this mountainous area. Zhang Hongfan led 500,000 troops to exterminate the remnants of the Song Dynasty, and he must ruthlessly exterminate the bandits in the mountainous areas. Otherwise, the army's grain route would be under the threat of Lin Qi at all times. And the thousands of people under Lin Qi's command, no matter how high the morale is, after all, the number of people is too small to deserve a blow from the army.
If one day, the general in front of him is down, he will definitely treat him as he does to himself. Inflict humiliation on himself and return them one by one, but save his life. Looking at Lin Qi's handsome face, Tana thought silently. I don't know why.,Suddenly this stupid idea arises.,And,It seems like there's still a little bit of anticipation.。
"If one day, Ling Zun and the Mongols retreated to Mobei. Miss can come to my house to taste tea, and the next general will greet her! Lin Qi arched his hand, as if smiling.
Suddenly, guilty of your own ridiculous ideas. If one day, the Mongols are beaten back to Mobei, can they go and see this strange woman? Is it really as she said, go drink a bowl of milk tea? But it is clear that he should be full of hatred for him, but is it really as the brothers accuse, that he is deceived by beauty?
Greet each other! Tana finally waited for a friendly word that she wanted, and after reading Han books for a few days, she knew that it was a welcome word to her friend, although this word came out of Lin Qi's mouth, it still had a bit of a provocative taste.
Nodding with satisfaction, the resentment in his heart dissipated little by little, and he asked with wide and agile eyes, "When Jiangnan tea is good, I don't know where the general's house is?" How many people are in the family? These two sentences are in authentic Jiangnan language, but they came out of Tana's mouth, with the boundless mountain scenery, in the haze, there is a little different taste.
"Germanium Mountain, Fujian. There was no one, and first Suodu was set on fire and killed his clansmen. Then, his wife and children were all arrested by Li Heng, and I don't know where they were sold! Lin Qi sighed and said regretfully. He looked Tana up and down and said with a smile: "You go quickly, every time I think of these things, I can't help but want to kill you......"
Tana smiled and shook her head. Suppressing the chaotic mood, the leather boots gently knocked the horse's belly, walked forward a few steps, and took the horse's head, turned around and said: "The general should be careful from now on, Zhang Hongfan will lead the troops, more than 500,000." You are blocking his grain road, and recently you have ruined his military resources, so that he has not been out of the army, and he has not been out of the army, so he will be sharpened first! ”
What do you mean by that? Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, and replied: "My Jiangnan people are not only five million, fifty million!" ”
After saying that, he turned the horse's head and ran towards the road.
Tana smiled, watched Lin Qi's war horse run away, turned around, and slowly walked out of the mountain.
Ever since she knew that her lover had died in Shao Wu, she couldn't tolerate anything other than hatred in her heart. But now, a ray of sunshine seemed to have suddenly entered the closed heart, and the figure of the white-robed general rode his horse in the sun.
The Mongols, the Han Chinese, are really heavy, they are all heroes. Tana thought silently as she galloped. Suddenly looking up, I already saw the black banner of the Jiangxi Mongolian army.
Note: Closed on weekends, starting next week, it will resume every morning at around half past six Beijing time.
