The rolling heads, just after a piece of knife light, fell on the loess that had nourished them, and the splashed blood immediately stained the earth red, converging into a river, and in a blink of an eye, it was absorbed by the thirsty loess hiss, and the ones were either frightened, or painful, or numb, but more of a relieved expression, but there was no trace of nostalgia for the world, just staring at a pair of eyes that had lost their lives, looking at the array of both sides, looking at the blue sky.

A gust of wind blew gently, as if a mother wanted to use her hand to close the eyes with different expressions, but she was disappointed, and after caressing, it only brought up bursts of blood, flying, and slowly filling the heaven and earth.

Without the roar of war drums, without the shouts of battle formations, even the overwhelming flags on both sides seemed to be shocked by this scene, and they quietly remained motionless, not daring to make a sound.

Seeing this cruel scene, it was not only Guangwu who was shocked, but also Lu Shi who was standing in front of him.

Gao Yingxiang's crazy actions completely destroyed the tall image of those peasant heroes in the late Ming Dynasty in Lu Shi's heart, and also shattered the intention of reconciling with Gao Yingxiang and others, who were originally allies with the brothers of the same qi.

At the beginning, I saw some historical classics in my previous life, the records and descriptions of several peasant army generals in the late Ming Dynasty, one of which was written by Gu Yanwu, the historical materials of Li Zicheng, Gao Yingxiang and other peasant army generals described them a lot, but Lu Shi still didn't believe it, but he thought that it was a slander against the enemies of the Ming Dynasty who forced their emperor to death, but look at Li Zicheng's treatment of Li Yan later, Luo Rucai (nicknamed Cao Cao) who fought with him, and after Jiashen entered Beijing, The record of what the peasant army did could not be avoided in the official history, and Lu Shi was very puzzled at that time, so at that time, he began to pay attention to the various records and comments behind these people, and every time a new record was queried, it made Lu Shi look at Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, etc., and the original tall image was dimmed.

Gao Yingxiang moved to northern Shaanxi, "with the army of two-legged sheep, crying for ten miles" I didn't feel a chill in my heart, waving the flag to kill my wife A classic episode, those generals who were eager to break through and survive, even their wives and children could not bear to be slaughtered, is it more to see the dark side of their human nature from another angle?

When he saw that Li Zicheng was attacking Luoyang, he actually "arrested more than 1,000 women, took off their clothes and pants, buried them outside the city, and used firearms" was even more shocking. In Kaifeng City, the lives of tens of millions of people in the lower reaches of the Yellow River are disregarded, and the Yellow River floods Kaifeng, is it already extinct human nature? (It is said that the Yellow River was dug up by officials and soldiers, and I wondered, under the siege of the army, how could hundreds of officers and soldiers really dig the Yellow River embankment, which is difficult to explode with yellow explosives, in the middle of the night?) Not to mention the fact that Zhang Xianzhong Tu Chuan, etc. Every time I look at it, I don't feel embarrassed.

But in any case, Lu Shi has always thought about the good, although they have such and such things, but more are still the distortion of the Manchu Dynasty, just like the history of the Ming Dynasty compiled by the Qing Dynasty, let them say that Mao Wenlong, who betrayed the country and sought glory, his son went into the mountains after the Qing army entered the customs, and the beloved son of Yuan Chonghuan, the great hero of the anti-Qing Dynasty, was distorted like the governor of the Manchu Dynasty, but he wanted to use this to fight the spirit of resistance of the Han people, and it was for ulterior purposes.

But now we know the truth, why Li Zicheng withdrew from Beijing, retreated all the way and couldn't hold back his footsteps, the reason is not that the local army that was surrendered in a hurry is unstable, but - there is no popular heart, they have no popular heart at all, and those who win the hearts of the people win the world, this is a principle through the ages, and it will remain unchanged for eternity, and the killing of Jiugongshan is really a manslaughter or is it self-inflicted?

But, now, right in front of him, there are living examples, does that still give him a hint of fantasy?

No, everything is shattered, and all that is left is to be sad because I can't bear to hide my face, for the belief in my heart to collapse and become disillusioned, and to grieve for the end of those innocent people. (The above is just a little bias that I have read and seen, and only represents my own point of view, please don't take it seriously)

Guo Tianxing stood at the head of the city and smashed his fists to donate blood. Suddenly shouted at Lu Shi: "Is it useful to cry? Against these brutes, we have to kill them to save the poles, no, the people. ”

"Yes, kill them and save those people."

In order to save the enemy, the enemy was willing to fight, and for a time tens of thousands of people in the city and under the city shouted in the sky, such a situation may have never appeared in the history of ancient and modern wars.

Lu Shi didn't cry, but he couldn't bear it, after a year of blood and fire, he was used to seeing thousands of deaths, and his heart was no longer as fragile as before. Now, the most important thing I need to do is to rush out and rescue the people who have been held hostage.

However, Lu Shi is very hesitant now, because, within three days, they urgently rushed more than 200 miles, according to the military itinerary, this is a tired army, just entered Chenjiabao, without a moment of rest, such an army, can it still fight?

After Lu Shi turned around and walked towards the city wall, he saw the five thousand brothers who had already looked up at the city and were waiting for Lu Shi's order.

Seeing King Chuang's white clothes appear, five thousand spearmen, sword and shield soldiers, and archers shouted together: "King Chuang, give orders." ”

Looking at these tired but angry brothers, looking at such soldiers, Lu Shi took a deep breath, five thousand tired troops, against one hundred thousand rogues outside, that is a kind of determination.

"Brethren, can you still fight?" Lu Shi shouted and asked.

"War, war, war."

"Okay, go on the expedition, no victory."

"No win, no return." The group should be reconciled.

Guo Tianxing strode down the city, jumped on his horse, and shouted to the fifteen hundred cavalry brothers: "Aggression is like fire, and there is no victory and no return." ”

Fifteen hundred brothers shouted together, "For the fathers of the world, fight to the death and never retreat, kill, kill, kill." Then, drawing his sagile saber, he followed the Grand Commander out of the wide open gates.

Lu Shi looked at the distant stars of the torrent and opened his mouth, but he could only close it helplessly.

This military matter should have been the unified mobilization of his commander, but looking at the fact that he had already run out of the city with his cavalry, there was no hope.

Looking at Geng Kui, who was eager to try in front of the spearmen and sword and shield soldiers, Lu Shi had no choice but to say: "Geng Kui listens to orders." ”

Geng Kui stepped forward and arched his hand in a proper manner: "King Chuang commands." ”

"Take all the soldiers and horses to attack, merge with the brothers outside the fortress to form a formation, respect the commander's order, attack Gao Yingxiang, and rescue the people's fathers and elders."

"Obey." Geng Kui promised loudly, turned around and waved his hand, without any passionate words, and took the lead in prancing forward.

At this time, all the languages had turned pale, and the heads of the two thousand fathers and elders in front of the battle had replaced everything.

The five thousand warriors who were in the dust and dust once again shook their spirits, followed their heads, and led the formation to rush out of the city gate.

"Where's the firearms battalion leader?"

"The firearms battalion is all ready, please break the king's order."

"Go to the city, set up firearms and longbows, and prepare to strike them at the first moment of enemy attack."

"Yes."

A column of dark red firearms battalion brothers ran up the city wall, and quickly assembled the strong bows and crossbows and arrows they brought with them at the head of the city, so that the city head was densely packed with sharp weapons.

"Brother Guangwu." Lu Shi turned to Guangwu who was following him and said, "You command all the firearms battalions at the head of the city, and I will command them out of the city." ”

Guangwu is in a hurry, facing an army of hundreds of thousands of rogues who have already died, how can he let King Chuang go out of the city and take risks? Regardless of the upper and lower levels, he went up and grabbed the corner of Lu Shiyi, and looked at Chunlan, who was following King Chuang.

Chunlan didn't answer him, but just firmly followed Lu Shi's footsteps down to the city.

Zhao Xing, who was following Lu Shi's side closely, smiled lightly and said: "Brother Guangwu, the great commander is outside, he has already been dizzy, who can say anything other than King Chuang?" ”

In a word, he immediately let go of Guangwu's hand, yes, who else can dissuade the heroic and righteous commander who was stimulated and crazy by blood and crying? In the entire base area, only King Chuang can convince the commander, only the third uncle can be subdued, and only Chunlan can be bullied.

As soon as Guangwu let go, Lu Shifei went down to the city, and the quiet Zhao Xing was not ambiguous, and immediately followed, and Zhang Xiao and Wang Jian followed closely.

Gao Yingxiang was on the battlefield, regardless of anyone's opposition, beheaded all the 2,000 retreating soldiers, and picked the head of the most trusted general, Cao Shen'er, on the long pole, and told the three armies, those who hesitated, cowered, and cowardly all rushed to shock and fear.

When Gao Yingxiang once again organized the 30,000 most elite soldiers in his army, including the non-muddy standard battalion subordinates, to prepare to launch a decisive blow against the Lu Shi spearmen outside the city, he saw the fiery red banner suddenly unfurled on the fortress, and a thin and tall figure under the banner, he couldn't help but throb in his heart, and a kind of heroism rising from his heart.

Lu Shi is here, are you not shrinking in the nest, or are you here, the first to play the banner of breaking the king and laying down a big country, the hairy boy with countless whimsical ideas is here.

Come on, you saw my decision to kill 2,000 defeated soldiers in front of the battle, so how shocked and frightened were you? Isn't it already scared? It is rumored that a kid who can cry for a few cheap lives before the siege of Mizhi, in such a world, in such a life-and-death battle, what can you do?

I'll let you see what kind of killing decisions the real heroes, the heroes who can really shock the world, are.

The appearance of the word banner also shows that the opponent's reinforcements have arrived, according to the calculation, you Huluyu is here for hundreds of miles, even if you come, it is a tired division, now, I must launch a fierce attack before you recover and recuperate, defeat you here, annihilate you, and save me from looking for you to fight in your territory, and at that time, I will have the four counties of Weinan at my fingertips.

Longbow? Haha, I have your quilt**, everything is no longer a threat to me, what is cocooning and self-restraint? That's it.

"Brothers, the whole army of Lu Shi is coming, it is a good time for us to annihilate them in one fell swoop, a battle is decided, this battle is won, the money and grain of the four counties, and the women and people of the four counties are all ours, come, set up the quilt and attack."

No matter the more than 1,000 cavalry that swarmed out in the fortress, no matter what kept pouring out later, the black-clad spearmen and shields, Gao Yingxiang waved the army, drowning like a variegated tide towards the lonely fortress, and outside the fortress, looking at the weak intruding army.

A big war, a massacre of who will be against whom, begins in an instant.
