In the middle of the night, the cold wind howled, and the fire of the city gradually fell into calm, and after a whole day of street fighting, both sides exhausted their strength, and half of the city was occupied by the Chu army, but the heavy casualties also made the Chu army a little unbearable. The sudden blizzard made the visibility of the whole city drop to extremely low, and it was no longer possible to see each other clearly after a few steps, and the temperature suddenly dropped a lot, which meant that the water was dripping into ice, and in such weather, both sides could not move.

Mei Hua leaned against a wall, one of his arms was gone, during the battle, his left arm was cut off by a Chu army general, and the sudden sharp drop in temperature froze his wounds, which made him not die of excessive blood loss, at this moment, a soldier was busy bandaging him. Beside him, lying was Long Bin, who was also unable to move, Long Bin was stabbed several times and was seriously injured. At this moment, seeing that Mei Hua had no left arm on the shoulder, he couldn't stop crying.

"Crying for what?" Mei Hua, who was leaning against the wall, looked still vigorous, and when she caught a glimpse of Long Bin crying, she couldn't help laughing: "You kid is more injured than me." ”

"Commander, we can't hold it." Long Bin whimpered.

"yes, I can't hold it." Mei Hua's expression also dimmed, but it was only for a moment, "But I'm not annoyed, the battle is still going on, is it?" As long as there was one person left in the 3rd Division, the fighting in the city would continue. We can't hold Yingshui, but if we kill one more enemy here, after they break through the Yingshui defense line, the damage they will cause will be less. You're right? ”

Long Bin nodded vigorously.

"Long Bin, do you remember Jixiang?" Mei Hua leaned against the wall and asked Long Bin, "That's me as a company commander, and you two are platoon commanders." That battle, we also fought very badly, auspicious, that battle is gone. Otherwise, he must also be the head of the regiment now, and you and you will be able to get together my second general. Ha. ”

"Jixiang is smarter than me, if he can survive until now, he will definitely be better than me." Long Bin said.

"Now we're going to see that kid, and I don't know if that kid will complain about how it took us so long to meet him, he must be very lonely and unbearable down there. Now, we're going to be together again. ”

"No, no. Teacher, you will live a hundred years, and Jixiang must not want to see you. He would never want to. Long Bin burst into tears. Commander, don't say that. It's so unlucky. ”

"Hehe, life and death are fate, we are soldiers, are we still afraid of death? Actually, I thought I was going to die many years ago, many times. In this life. I've lived my life to the fullest. Long Bin, do you know what I'm most proud of? ”

"You must have followed the king in the battle against the Donghu people on the glacier, right?"

"Wrong. It was I who rode into the rich man's house and slashed him, that bastard, who dared to bully my comrade-in-arms, my brother's daughter-in-law, and I took the opportunity to take a vacation. A single man rushed in, and with a knife he broke up his guard, hacked him to death, and later suffered dozens of military sticks for this. Mei Hua laughed. That was my most imposing one. ”

"I know. Later, you took the son of that comrade-in-arms as your son. ”

"That boy, who is now sixteen years old, is just like his father, and is also a brave and ruthless master, I sent him to the military academy. The son inherits his father's business, and in the future, he will earn a good breath for his dead ghost father. ”

"Commander, stop talking, take a good rest!" Long Bin said with a crying voice.

"Rest a fart, soon, I can rest forever, and I won't be able to wake up this time." Mei Hua glanced at Long Bin: "You kid can't do it, it's a burden to stay here, go to the general's mansion and rest." ”

"I'm not going, division commander, it should be you who go to the general's mansion, and I'll take the lead!" Long Bin yelled, holding his hands on the ground, trying to stand up, but he struggled for a long time, but in vain.

"Look at the way you look now, and you still said that you should hold it, and now you, can you still hold the knife?" Mei Hua sneered, straightened her waist and stood up, strode to the window, and glanced into the distance, "As soon as this snowstorm stops, the other party will attack again, and such a big snowstorm won't last long." We want to delay time, and the enemy wants to buy time! I don't know how Jingzhou is playing, it should be about the same now, but unfortunately, I can't see the final victory. ”

He turned around and snapped his fingers: "You two, drag me this burden to the general's mansion." ”

"Yes!" Two soldiers stepped forward, lifted Long Bin from the ground, and carried him away.

"I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving, division commander, even if I die, I will die with you."

Listening to Long Bin's roar, Mei Hua smiled sadly: "Fool, it's good to live a little longer." ”

Reaching into his arms, he took out a bag of brocade, carefully took out a piece of paper from it, and opened it gently, it was a portrait, on it, a delicate woman sat on a brocade stool, holding a small doll with two hands in her arms, which was his wife and son. Mei Hua put the painting to her mouth with moist eyes, kissed it gently, and then carefully folded it up and put it back on her chest. "Son, although you don't have a father, you have a good mother and a good uncle, well, your grandfather, uncle and second uncle are also amazing people, you will live a very happy life, Dad is sorry for you Luo!"

Wiping away the tears on his face, Mei Hua gently sang the military song that had accompanied him for more than ten years.

The long sword is directed to the northern territory;

The remnant sun is like blood, flowing on the journey south;

Banner hunting, summoning the war drums of the eastward;

The yellow sand is long, and it can't stop the footsteps of the westward expedition.

As Mei Hua hummed, a gentle echo came from behind her, and the song floated out of the house they guarded, blown by the strong wind and carried by the blizzard, slowly drifting through the city, the song became louder and louder, and finally merged into a torrent, overwhelming the whistling snow and ice, echoing over the city that had almost become a wasteland.

Huang Zhong stood on top of a small two-story building that had survived and had not been blown up, listening to the deafening sound coming from the area of the Han army in the distance, and his face was extremely pale.

Farther away, above the city tower, Bai Xizhong stood with a knife, crossed the river to fight, attacked the beach, broke the embankment, he personally commanded and even went into battle in person, so that he was seriously injured at the moment, he thought that victory was in sight, but now he was dragged alive in Yingshui, the street battle of the Han army made them suffer heavy losses, at this moment, relying on ten times the enemy's military strength, the Han army finally could not hold, the Chu army crushed the resistance of the Han army, but did not break their fighting spirit, listening to this song, Bai Xizhong muttered: "Can we really win this war?" ”

In the county town of Yingchuan, Qu Wan stood on top of the city tower, listening to the faint singing from the other side, his hands were stubbornly squeezed on the city wall, his face was snow-white, like the falling snowflakes.

"General, what shall we do now?" Beside him, the voice of the deputy general came from the Nine Hells, and just now, the scout sent 100,000 urgent information. The three cavalry divisions of the Han army had already approached Tai'an, and the third division of the First Army of the Han Youth Guards, which had recently set off from Wuguan, was less than fifty miles away from the county seat of Yingchuan. The Qin army that followed them had been cut off by the cavalry divisions of the Han State, and now retreated to Wulong County, and the main force of Yang Dasha's army had already arrived.

The cavalry units of the Han army and the defense troops of Wuguan can only show one thing, the battle situation in the Jingzhou theater has been decided, and the state of Chu has been defeated.

In the first battle of Yingshui, before and after, he had lost 50,000 troops, and the blood of 50,000 soldiers dyed the Yingshui River red, and if he continued to fight, even if he occupied the Yingshui River? What if the stubborn army on the other side is wiped out? The 100,000 Chu army will eventually be annihilated on this land, and it will end up with the Qi army in previous years.

He reached out and took off the helmet from his head, and slammed it down the tower.

"General!"

Qu Wan didn't answer him, turned around and strode down the tower.

The wind and snow gradually stopped, and the sky brightened, Mei Hua opened her sleepy eyes, looked at the dawn on the horizon, and said happily: "I really can't imagine that I can still see the sun today?" ”

"Commander, where is the sun?" A soldier got up from the ground, looked at the gloomy sky, and asked strangely.

"There is the sun in my heart!" Mei Hua laughed and tapped her heart with her finger, "Here you can see it, and the dark clouds can't block your eyes." ”

Looking at the soldier's ignorant appearance, Mei Hua laughed, "It's really strange, yesterday I looked like I didn't want to die, how can I be honest today?" You won't be frozen, will you? ”

The half of the city occupied by the Chu army was now quieter than on their side, Mei Hua looked at the opposite side strangely, their military flag was still there, standing here with him, he could clearly see their soldiers, but the imaginary attack did not come.

What does Chu Jun want to do? Mei Hua reached out and stroked her left shoulder, and a trace of pain surfaced on her face.

"Commander, someone is coming!" One of the soldiers suddenly shouted.

Mei Hua naturally saw it, a person with a disheveled head, dressed in white, with his bare hands, was walking in the direction where they were.

The man stopped and raised his head, Mei Hua almost lost his voice and shouted, that person was Qu Wan, the general of the Chu State, the commander of the Chu army.

"I'm Qu Wan, is Master Mei still alive? If he is still alive, I will see you, and if he is dead, please let your highest-ranking man come out and speak. Qu Wan said loudly.

Mei Hua looked at Qu Wan, and her eyes gradually lit up.

"It's not that easy to want me to die!" He pushed open the door and strode out towards Qu Wan.

After bending his head, he turned his head and looked at the Han army general who had no left arm, with an extremely complicated look in his eyes. (To be continued.) )
