Chapter 548: Officials and Thieves Don't Stand Apart (First Update, Ask for Subscription)
The clashing of knives and guns, the deafening shouts of killing, finally stopped!
Heaven and earth seemed to be quiet again, standing there with a knife in hand, the bright breastplate had been dyed red with blood, the hair hung down in front of him, and the blood beads were dripping from time to time.
The blood is red.
Red blood dripped along the edge of the lower perimeter of the cuirass, which was also pierced with dozens of feathered arrows.
Yu Shujie stood there like this, his hand was a knife, and the other hand was a flag, the flag was the banner of the Ming Dynasty, and the flag was full of arrow holes.
Still, the sun and moon are clearly visible. Red flag. The golden day, the silver moon, this is the sun and moon of the Ming Dynasty. And this piece of Ming Lang Qiankun is forged with blood.
In front of him, the road to the bridge was covered with corpses, both officers and soldiers, and some of the Shun army. Of course, more of the corpses of the Shun army.
Although everyone saw that he had no strength, the Shun army around him only surrounded him with spears from a distance, and no one dared to take the initiative to step forward, as if the corpse under his feet was there to remind everyone what price he would pay if he stepped forward.
That's how they held the spears in their hands, looking nervously at the bloody man in front of them. No one dared to take a step forward. Everyone kept a distance of a few feet.
However, Yu Shujie didn't have the energy to pay attention to them, his eyelids drooped, and he stood there quietly like this, just like that, the two sides were deadlocked, and there was silence between heaven and earth.
Kong said...... Chengren, Meng said...... Righteousness, only ...... Only it, righteousness, so, benevolence, benevolence to ......"
Jing Guan made Yu Shujie's consciousness a little blurred because of excessive blood loss, but he was still reciting this poem that he had memorized since he was a child.
While Yu Shujie was bowing his head and muttering, several horsemen came forward, and they restrained their horses a few feet away.
"Yu Junmen, listen, as long as you descend to my Dashun, my Dashun will definitely not treat you badly."
As soon as Li Laiheng, who was riding on a horse, said in a deep voice.
"Come to Heng, don't insult Yu Junmen!"
A person like this will not surrender, and such persuasion will insult the other party. The person in front of him is indeed a man, a real man.
As a native of the northwest, Li Guo is also a hero who knows heroes and values heroes, and he doesn't want to humiliate the other party at this time, because this person is a respectable enemy.
The only thing that makes people happy is that in Daming, there are not many people like this. Otherwise, how could there be a great shun today.
After stopping his son's persuasion, Li Guo bowed to Yu Shujie.
"The military gate led two thousand cavalry to fight my Dashun ten thousand cavalry, although the whole army was annihilated, but Li was victorious, and now the emperor of the Zhu family has gone away by boat, although the military gate is defeated, it can still be said that although it is defeated, I don't know what the military gate has to say."
The words from a distance made Yu Shujie suddenly smile, he smiled brightly, under the starry sky and moon, the bright starlight was reflected on the river surface, and now there was no boat shadow.
They must have been far away, and soon, they will have reinforcements in the rear, and they will be safe.
It's all worth it.
"You are a thief, I am an official, although since ancient times officials and thieves do not stand together, I only hope that when you wait to bury me, I will be buried with all the soldiers, and after I wait, the armor and weapons will be plundered by you, only please be merciful, leave our waist card, and put the waist card into our mouth, so, Yu is not only under Jiuquan, but also grateful to the general for his great kindness."
The reason why Yu Shujie made such a request was because of the thief nature, and every battle must plunder the armor, weapons, clothes, waist cards... In the future, when they return to the Martyrs' Shrine, they will also rely on the waist card to identify their identity.
Thinking that thousands of brothers went out with him, and in the end they all died. What can I do now?
That is, to meet again with them in the Martyrs' Shrine.
Faced with such a request, Li Guo nodded.
"Don't worry, general, I will definitely tell all the sons."
"Thank you ......"
After these two words were spoken, Yu Shujie, who had been standing, looked up at the flag, grinned again, and finally said to himself.
"Lord Shizi, the minister has gone to ......"
After saying this, he used his last strength to put the knife on his neck, and then swung the knife to kill himself......
Looking at the Ming army generals who fell suddenly, Li was speechless for a long time, and only said for a long time.
"Pass the order, the good students will bury them, only armor and weapons are allowed, they are all meritorious heroes of our Han people, and they can't be humiliated......"
In this way, Li Guo rode on the horse, quietly looking at Yu Shujie, who had fallen, and looked at the fallen flag.
"Dad, it's just a defeat......"
His son's words made Li Guo unhappy.
"Lai Heng, he is a general of the German clan, and he also killed the Dongyu at the beginning and made great contributions to the country, such a person...... Ay! ”
Shaking his head and sighing, Li Guo's face looked extremely ugly, he didn't even mention fleeing to the emperor again, nor did he order a pursuit, and he couldn't catch up.
When Tang Tong arrived, when he asked if he was pursuing, Li Guo didn't even glance at him, holding the straight knife of Yu Shujie in his hand, looking at the sawtooth left by the blade when he slashed, he thought to himself.
"Why is the same official army, but the gap is so big......
Obviously, Tang Tong didn't know what this general was thinking, and looked at the straight knife in his Duanxiang's hand, so he took the initiative to explain.
"General, this straight knife is a special saber made by the Pinglu Army, you see that its blade is straight, the tip of the knife is very sharp, the Pingyu Army specializes in using this knife to break armor, when they use it, they all raise this knife flat, and then use horsepower to rush to kill, even if the Donglu is wearing thick armor......"
Suddenly, Tang Tong said in astonishment.
"This Pingyu army has arrived ......"
Even Tang Tong himself didn't notice the fear in his words, the Pingyu army arrived, then, will the general be far away?
Li Laiheng couldn't help but sarcastically.
"General Tang, look at your scare, even if General Pingyu is three heads and six arms, how can he be my opponent of Dashun!"
"What the young general said is very true, very much, the last general is just wondering how they came so quickly, look at the rumors that this Pingyu army can travel thousands of miles a day is indeed true!"
"What is false, they are township soldiers from Shandong, dog things, but they are really tough, after so many years of fighting, I have never seen such a hard-hearted ...... as them"
Listening to his son's words, Li Guo nodded silently, and then said.
"Let's go, go back to Beijing and give the emperor his life."
"What about the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom?"
"Can't catch up!"
Dropping such a sentence, Li Guo jumped on his mount and was about to leave when he specially commanded.
"Remember, you can't touch their waist cards."
After that, Li Guo rode away from this battlefield, and when he left, his brows were tightly locked, looking at his father's solemn appearance, Li Laiheng couldn't help asking.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"Lai Heng, you say, if the 100,000 Pinglu army and hundreds of thousands of Shandong township soldiers are like them, can our Dashun still win the world?"
Dad's question made Li Laiheng stunned, and he said after a while.
"Probably not, this cavalry should be the elite of General Pingyu's family in Shandong, naturally different from ordinary soldiers and horses, you see they are riding high-headed horses in Liaodong, perhaps, even the Pingyu army itself does not necessarily have a few such elites."
His son's words fell on Li Guo's ears, he just nodded slightly, and then shook his head and said.
"Hey, not necessarily, how powerful the Dongyu Tartars were back then, they traveled thousands of miles into the customs, but it was difficult to defeat the general when they encountered a blow, and hundreds of thousands of Pingyu troops beat the Dongyu to the point that they even lost their hometown, and the prince fled to the grassland, and the emperor sailed out of the sea, and I don't know where he escaped. How powerful is this Pingyu Army, to be honest, my father has no bottom in his heart......"
Li Guo's brows furrowed, and then he muttered to himself.
"Zhang Xianzhong is also a momentary figure, but he can't even stop a face, and he ends up with no bones, let's ......"
After a pause, Li Guo said softly.
"Whether we can stand in the way of others, it's really hard to say, I just hope that the emperor will ascend the throne as soon as possible, in this case, it really won't work, let's withdraw to Shaanxi, with the natural danger of Tongguan, it will be okay to hold Shaanxi......"
And then what?
Li Guo didn't know, and he didn't think about it carefully, but his intuition as a soldier told him that the Pingyu Army was far more powerful than he imagined.
How many of the 10,000 Elite Riders are left now?
There's not much left!
