525. Farewell to best friends

The fleet of the Nine Ghosts Masaki set off, and there was no more to support, so I gave him all my most elite fleets, and allocated the supply fleet according to the ratio of one to three, and did my best to help them go to North America, after all, that was my insistence, and the Nine Ghosts Masaki was my most valuable asset.

When he left, many people were in a heavy mood, but as the parties involved, the nine ghosts Masataka, Frank Lampard and Joe Cole were very impassioned.

They went with a mission, so they will definitely come back to my team with the best results.

I firmly believe this, so I let them go with confidence. The people I trust the most will definitely not be so vulnerable.

But when I really watched the fleet go farther and farther, my heart was still very difficult to give up.

These are my most precious things, and they will face the unknown future for the sake of my dreams, how can I not feel it?

Forget it, let's go! I'm looking forward to the future, so I'm not attached to the present.

After the departure of the Nine Demons, I myself prepared to set sail west with the rest of the fleet. And that's what I'm supposed to do, after all, I can't leave my people alone to face the risk and be indifferent behind the scenes.

And my first stop, I was ready to go to the Goryeo Peninsula. There, there were some friends I had to say goodbye to.

The fleet was moving very fast, and in just two days, we were sent to the port near Kaneno, and Ye Sizhong and they were stationed not far away, and I hardly made much effort to let people find them, and invited Ye Sizhong to come out and meet me at the beach for the last time.

When we met again, Brother Ye Sizhong's face was full of distress. I knew he was crying out for me, and even though I knew it was pointless, I was still moved deep down.

In the summer breeze by the sea, Ye Sizhong and I held our hands tightly and shook them vigorously, but we couldn't say a word.

"Brother, it shouldn't be like this! It shouldn't be! Ye Sizhong's heart was full of pain, and his face also showed the same look at the same time.

"It's okay! It's okay! All the best! Don't be sad! Don't be sad! I continued to convince him, but Ye Sizhong was still in pain.

"Can we meet again when you're gone?" Ye Sizhong asked.

"Definitely! Certain! I responded again and again, shaking Ye Sizhong's hands vigorously.

Ye Sizhong bit his lip stubbornly, this steel giant couldn't help but let himself leave tears, but I couldn't help it first, and tears flowed under the sea breeze.

"Come with me! Man! I'll find someone to pick up your wife and children, and we'll leave nothing for them!" I said sincerely, but my heart was full of sorrow.

Ye Sizhong shook his head slowly, sighed, and said sadly: "Qi Dudu is gone." ”

When I heard this, I was stunned on the spot. Qi Dudu is gone?

Gone?

In an instant, from the first meeting of the Guangning battalion, to the later southern and northern wars, and then to the return of the departure, scenes continued to emerge in front of my eyes, and Qi Dudu's voice and smile were like a movie, evoking the deepest memories in my memory.

The deceased is like a husband, reluctant to give up day and night. Those who have left are gone, and they will never be able to return to us.

"Qi Dudu is gone, you are also leaving, Qilan, who do you say is left in our Qi family's army?" Ye Sizhong asked me.

I can't answer this question, yes, we're all gone, who else is left except Ye Sizhong?

"So I can't go, I can't go anymore! Brothers. Ye Sizhong said abruptly: "Isn't it the loyalty in our hearts that we have been fighting horses all our lives?" Qi Dudu is gone, you have to go, I can accept it. But I can't go any further! The banner of the Qi family army cannot be poured down! Never throw it out! ”

Qi Jiajun! Yes, Qi Jiajun! Once upon a time, I also shed my blood for this name, but today, what is left in my heart?

In addition to the sorrow and helplessness in his heart, he can no longer ignite the slightest passion and blood, only bleakness and sadness.

If the country lives and dies for profit, will it not be avoided because of good and evil? The ancient poems are right, but now I no longer have the courage and mood to fight for it.

It's all gone! It's all in the past!

Next, Ye Sizhong and I sat silently and speechlessly.

None of us is wrong, but none of us are right.

Standing on each other's standpoints, I was helpless to leave, and his helpless insistence was even more reasonable.

But judging from the results, no matter which of us has the results, it is not good.

But what can be done about it?

In the context of such a great era, what can the power of the individual change?

No matter how much I think about it, I still can't change the course of this history, and I still can't change everything about this reality.

No matter how much grief and indignation I have, I still can't shake this cruel reality!

"Brother, don't have a hard time with the Jurchens, retire early, and go back to your hometown!" I know that Ye Sizhong is a southerner, so I persuaded him to retreat bravely, there is no need to risk his own life for this rotten Ming Dynasty.

"Back home? What's the difference between that and going with you? Qilan. Ye Sizhong shook his head and sighed: "I won't leave, I may always be excluded, but I have my own insistence, I won't leave it alone like this!" ”

As he spoke, he added: "Even if there is an abyss in front of me, I will move forward step by step!" ”

Listening to his still majestic voice, my heart was indescribably uncomfortable. We are not fighting against some or some enemies, but against this era! Fight against this history!

In the face of the process of history, no matter how powerful an individual is, he is just a mantis arm as a car, and he is just a grain of sand in the sea, nothing more!

However, in the face of the edge of history, each of us has different choices. Ye Sizhong chose to stick to his promise and chose to live and die with Daming.

Maybe he's right, he's a model for the spirit of the times.

But as a modern person, I have my own value judgment, my own thoughts and persistence. It is impossible for me to go against the general trend for the sake of a historical inevitability, let alone challenge this impossible destiny when I know that I cannot do it and know the result!

The Ming Dynasty is over, no matter what latitude of history, he is finished, what I can do is to be alone, so that I at least have the strength and conditions to continue to go on, and one day maybe maybe do something again.

Even though it all seemed so slim, I couldn't give up hope. My departure may be for the sake of the Ming Dynasty and even the future of the Chinese nation!

Maybe one day, I will do my part to help this hometown in my own way.

However, none of this is now. Now I am a mortal enemy who is incompatible with the supreme ruler of this country.

It's his original deep scruples and desire to get rid of it quickly, but now it's an existence that gritted his teeth when he thought of me, but there was nothing he could do.

There's no way I'm going to stay. All I can do is leave now.

As for what the future holds, let it be left to the future.

I leave my destiny to the future, but the rudder of the ship that sails into the future must be firmly in my own hands.

"Dude, I'm in Beijing, and I have industries in the port cities along the coast, of course, it's a makeover. I mean, if you change your mind one day, or want to ship your family out, just find any property with this gold medal and they will help you unconditionally! ”

As I spoke, I took off the gold medal engraved with the word "Sun" from my waist and gently handed it to Ye Sizhong.

This gray-haired old man took my gold medal, stared at it for a long time in his hand, and suddenly sighed again: "Qilan, your friendship, my brother understands it." But I've made up my mind that I'm not going to go! This gold medal, you ......"

He wanted to give me back the gold medal, but I pushed his hand back: "No! Dude, keep it, just think of it as a thought! ”

I said sincerely.

Ye Sizhong looked at me deeply, did not make a sound, sighed heavily for a long time, nodded and stuffed the gold medal into his arms, and gently patted it on it through his clothes, making sure it was put away.

Seeing him accept the gold medal, my heart felt better. This is the last thing I can do for him, and I really don't have anything to do for him, but in this way, I can only talk about a little bit of my heart as a brother.

"After I leave, if you have something, remember what your brother said, don't die, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood. Being a hero is the stupidest thing to do, you know? Again, I said sincerely.

Ye Sizhong was speechless, and nodded heavily.

Suddenly, his eyes turned red again, and he took my hand again and said, "Brother, go quickly!" Li Rusong received an order from above to pursue you, so he didn't come to see you off this time. This is already his greatest authority, and the last thing he can do for you. Let's go! You deserve to belong to the vast sea, never, never again! ”
