Chapter II. 142. Victory in the first battle
Shen Gui followed the soldiers of the Flying Bear Army to kill for a while, and after the situation was settled, he felt a little excited: First of all, the long knife in his hand was just the standard saber of the Flying Bear Army. Although it is better than ordinary road goods, the quality is also on the same level; Just after killing two rounds, the blade was already curled up and unusable; And the long sword Chunyu on his waist is also a 'love token' exchanged with the eldest lady of the Li family, if he is used to kill the enemy and serve the country, it is reasonable, but the rest of the work is clearly no different from the butcher of the butcher shop, and it is really insulting to the name of this sword.
If he said that he would go back and get a good knife, it would be useless when he folded it back; Even if you catch up with the last wave, you can't kill it a few times and have to change it again. So Shen Gui simply threw away the long knife at will, intending to stay away from the center of the battlefield to rest, and it happened that at this time, Shen Gui noticed an old man who was stunned - it was Guo Xiao, the Marquis of Pingbei!
Now that the overall situation has been decided, there is no possibility of accidents at all, and Shen Gui stopped Guo Xiao, who was about to commit suicide. This is the first time that the two 'game' people have met, Shen Gui knows Guo Xiao, but Guo Xiao doesn't know Shen Gui of 'Huangkou Ruzi'.
"What? Delaying your old brewing mood? Your old man is already this age, what is the urgency of one day earlier and one day later? It's never too late to die! ”
Guo Xiao was full of sorrow, and under the mixture of shame and indignation, he planned to draw his sword and kill himself. didn't think that as soon as he was about to close his eyes and wipe his neck, he was stopped by Shen Gui; It's like a freshly burned charcoal stove, passing by a child who sprinkled a soak of urine, and all of his thoughts were extinguished, and he suddenly felt a little excited.
"Actually, Shen didn't want to lead you to this desperate road, but your little boy is too ignorant of what he does, and a fire burned to death 30,000 of our Youbei disciples! I wondered, how can this revenge be avenged, right? The so-called grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by the spring, and your 100,000 auxiliary soldiers in Beiyan will exchange for our 30,000 'fine armor' in Youbei. ”
Shen Gui threw his helmet to the ground as he spoke, and pulled out the three feather arrows that were not deep in the flesh, this look like he didn't frown, it looked like he was more horizontal, more brave and braver.
"If you say that you will die after talking, why do you just listen to me and not say anything? Could it be that the Marquis of Ping'an is also a deaf person? Or are you old behind your ears? Why don't you call my fourteen brothers and compare them with you? ”
Hearing Shen Gui's teasing, Guo Xiao suddenly felt full of anger! If it weren't for Fang Cai's futile roar and completely shouting his throat, he really had the heart to scold Shen Guilian's father and mother. Of course, if Guo Xing was also here, he would have to tear off a piece of his flesh alive after listening to this deal of exchanging 100,000 auxiliary soldiers for 30,000 fine armor!
Guo Xiao was really upset by his nagging, coupled with the rapid march of the generals and commanders in the past few days, and was constantly harassed by the fourteenth and others along the way; Now he was agitated by the purgatory of the world in front of him, and he could no longer stand on his feet, and sat on the ground with his ass.
"You Beiyan people cry, are they all dry rain and no thunder? There is an East Customs in the middle, can the folk customs be so different? ”
Shen Gui looked at Guo Xiao, who was in tears and opened his big mouth without making a sound, and asked in wonder. It wasn't until Guo Xiao struggled to make a hoarse sound that Shen Gui patted his head:
"It turned out that I shouted at the throat! According to me, old man, you have wasted this emotion superfluously, since you beat your precious son in fresh clothes and angry horses, and snatched back the corpse of the woman, today's situation has been doomed. Now, I am not afraid to tell you plainly, when your old man comes to the bridge, if you can wait a few more days, you may end up with a happy ending where father and son are far apart! ”
Shen Gui said cool words while carefully looking at the blisters on his palms that were ground by the handle of the knife, looking at this appearance, whether Guo Xiao could listen to it and what his reaction was, as if it didn't matter.
Now, the voices of begging for mercy and fighting in the ears of the two have a tendency to weaken, and they also know that this extremely tragic battle of Puhe is nearing the end; And those 'captives' who knelt on the ground with their hands raised and begged for mercy also looked as blank as the old handsome Guo Xiao, as if the brothers around them who were being cut and slaughtered had nothing to do with them at all.
"That's it, since the two armies meet each other on the battlefield, each is its own master, and there is nothing to say about the success or defeat of the king. But you are very old, and you have the reputation of a famous general on the Huayu Continent, plus you are also surnamed Guo, how can the younger generation let you die to understand it! ”
Hearing this, Guo Xiao, who was in a daze like an out-of-body out-of-body state, suddenly turned his head and stared at this 'Flying Bear Sergeant' with a shattered mouth with his eyes.
"In the next surname Shen Minggui, it is the year of the weak crown, because there is no famous teacher to guide him in his schoolwork, so he has no words in his body; Growing up at the foot of Taibai Mountain on Zhongshan Road in Youbei since childhood, he was raised by the two shamans, the first great shaman of shamanism, Beidou sacrificed to Li Xuanyu, and the current great shaman, Nandou Rejuvenation Lin Siwu; The maternal ancestor is the prince of Zhongshan in the northern part of the country, whose name is Shangguo, and Xiayunsong, and when he fought in the early years, he also had the reputation of 'Taibai Flying Tiger'......"
As Shen Gui reported his life and family history in detail, Pingbei Hou's eyes gradually brightened! He and Yan Chongwu were extremely familiar with each other, and knew that such a series of poisonous schemes must not be planned by the 'black bear'. Based on his original judgment, he thought that the 'mastermind behind the scenes' was the prime minister in the Prime Minister's Mansion in Fengjing City-Li Deng and Li Qiyuan! But I never thought that in such a shocking scam, the planner would be the young man in front of him who had not yet held the crown ceremony!
Shen Gui looked at Guo Xiao and reacted, and said with a little gloom on his face:
"It's a pity that Shen has no merit and no title inheritance, so he can't personally lead the troops to resist the enemy. Otherwise, why bother with so much effort? That's it, it's useless to say this, you just need to remember that the person who designed to strangle your 100,000 army today is my Youbei Shengui! ”
Speaking of this, Shen Gui took out the Spring Rain Sword at his waist and handed it to Guo Xiao, the Marquis of Pingbei, with both hands:
"This sword is Shen's personal sword, called Spring Rain! The sword is more than three feet eight inches long, and it is the posthumous work of the Beihai sword slave before his death. If the old man does not give up, he will use this sword to die for the country and become a benevolent person, in order to protect your reputation! ”
Guo Xiao looked at the white sheathed long sword handed over by Shen Gui: just such a saber that demanded his life, he actually saw him with a wave of eyes and a look of joy on his face.
After receiving the Spring Rain long sword, Guo Xiao first stood up tremblingly, and firmly straightened the banner of the Pingbei Army that had fallen to the ground - at this time, this battle flag was already in tatters, and was carefully planted on the dark red ground by the old commander Guo Xiao; Immediately, he untied the saber at his waist and threw it in the direction of Shen Gui......
Shen Gui took the sword in his hand and said with a puzzled face:
"Do you want me to bring this sword to Guo Xing? I'm sorry, I've already said that since the moment you stepped into the land of Youbei, you have been doomed to an army of 150,000 Pingbei, and it is impossible for any of you to return to your hometown alive......"
But Guo Xiao didn't laugh angrily after hearing this, then shook his head, stretched out his old and withered hand, and pointed at Shen Gui.
"For me?"
Guo Xiao just nodded, and in the next moment, Shen Gui heard a sound of breaking the sky; He looked at it again, Guo Xiao had already knelt straight in front of the military flag of the Pingbei army, and with his weak body, the military flag and the body of Guo Xiao, the marquis of Pingbei, fell to the ground together.
In this way, a generation of famous generals in front of the East Customs, Guo Xiao, Marquis of Pingbei, finally ended up defeated and died.
Shen Gui bent down and picked up the Spring Rain Long Sword, and with the last glimmer of light before dark, he looked at Sergeant Flying Bear who was killing prisoners on the shore, only to feel that this picture was extremely unfamiliar and had some inexplicable sense of confusion.
At this time, the East Customs was guarded by less than 2,000 old and weak soldiers of Beiyan; In the Flying Tiger barracks, the young marquis Guo Xing is also enjoying the captured wine and meat, looking forward to the arrival of the old marquis Guo Xing and the rear army; In the imperial study room in the Yanjing Palace, Emperor Zhou Yuanqing is still carefully pruning the branches and leaves placed in the vase; And Yan Qinghong, who was recuperating from his injuries in Fengjing's Shen Mansion, finally ushered in a visitor who was 'portrayal'!
Yan Qinghong, who was severely burned the day before yesterday, had just been replaced with gauze and ointment by Tie Li'er at this time, and was lying on the hospital bed stupidly. Just when everything was quiet, there were two crisp sounds from the roof of the house!
Yan Qinghong has gotten a lot better, although he still can't go out to see the wind, but his daily actions are no longer a big problem, except for some itching and pain, life is much better than before! At this time, these two strange crisp sounds came into the house, and he didn't even stumble, but opened his throat and shouted towards the door:
"Someone! Oh no! Someone has assassinated the prince! ”
As soon as the voice came out of the house, three people moved at the same time.
This first one is Tie Li'er, who has just gone out with a hot water basin! She was originally a human spirit mixed up in the Fengyue Field, but now when she heard Yan Qinghong's shout, she immediately threw the copper basin in her hand at will, and the whole person quickly hid in the firewood room behind her, and the action of closing the door and dropping the bolt was also completed in an instant. Tie Li'er, a smart woman, knows very well how many catties and taels she has under her hands - unless this killer is a market shrew, as long as she shows up, she can only end up with her hands tied up;
This second place is Liu Banxian, who is napping in the gatehouse! Since Shen Gui left, Liu Banxian put away the hexagram flag. Drinking and smoking in the concierge of the Shen Mansion all day long, and occasionally cleaning up a few killers sent by I don't know, the small life can be called idle and lazy. Now that he heard Yan Qinghong's cry for help, Liu Banxian was not in a hurry at all, and still walked unhurriedly to the direction of Yan Qinghong's side room where he was recuperating;
And this third person is the killer who fell on the roof of Yan Qinghong's house! The killer, who had trampled on the roof tiles, was startled by the pig-killing howl coming from inside the house, causing him to kick into the air and roll off the roof. With a muffled sound of 'bang', the whole person slapped on the ground fiercely.
