I don't know how many times it is, but new tombs have been added to the military mound valley in Luojia Mountain, which makes the military mound valley extend a lot to both sides and above. This time, in addition to the sacrificed soldiers of the Jingyi Army, there are also the sacrificed soldiers of the Red Tail Army, and yes, this time the burial ceremony was held by the two armies at the same time.

Xiao Yunqi stood in the snow, personally put Shen Yongnian's coffin into the tomb, and bowed three times to the tombstone. "General Shen, whether in life or after death, I call you General Shen, this is an agreement between our soldiers. Daliang is once again facing the critical moment of life and death, and it is precisely those of us who need to come forward, and you have set an example for us! ”

Xiao Yunqi solemnly placed the armor worn by Shen Yongnian in front of the tomb and gave a military salute. "You can rest assured, the number of the Red Tail Army will always be there, and the soldiers of the left rank guard and the right military guard are my brothers Xiao Yunqi!"

Xuan Shaoning stood in the middle of the team and peeked at the bamboo forest not too far from the Junzuka Valley, but it was only two days, and the traces of the battle there were still clear, but the living people who were once in the bamboo forest have turned into tombs in front of them. Among the people buried today, many of them Xuan Shaoning couldn't even name them, and not many people knew about their sacrifices, but Xiao Yunqi still ordered someone to transcribe the names of the fallen soldiers one by one.

Among these people, Xuan Shaoning also knows, such as An He, the captain of the Chiwei Army, who is older than himself, once fought side by side together when recovering Yinzhou, and played a pivotal role in resolving the contradictions between the two armies, but Xuan Shaoning still remembers An He's optimistic attitude and unswerving love for his brother to the death. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but start looking for Gongsun Ke in the crowd.

When Anhe's coffin was carried into the cemetery, Gongsun Ke should have been the least emotional of all. The best brother in his life, he felt guilty about him but had no chance to repay it, Gongsun Ke repeatedly warned himself not to shed tears, especially on this occasion, but tears are so uncompromising. It was the third time in his life that he shed tears, all three times for the same person.

The snow was falling heavily, and after the heavy snowfall two days earlier, it was a day of clear for a while, and now the snowflakes began to fall like goose feathers again. Xuan Shaoning felt that it was very appropriate, this was God also seeing off these soldiers who were defending the country, God was merciful, Xuan Shaoning's heart couldn't help but warm.

This time, the split battle between the two armies achieved the established results, and the Xiliang cavalry was annihilated, and once again killed the sharp spirit of Xiliang, making them more afraid of the land of Mobei; The Lower Tang Army also paid the price, the commander was killed in battle, and the Red Tail Army regained the city of Hongzhou. The most important of these is the reconciliation between the two armies, in order for Shen Yongnian's original tense situation to finally be alleviated after the truth is understood, He Yunke and Gongsun Ke were able to take the initiative to propose to join the Jingyi Army, which further improved the combat effectiveness of the whole army.

Xiao Yunqi didn't have any polite words, he agreed on the spot, and in order to respect Shen Yongnian, the number of the Red Tail Army was still retained. As a result, the number of troops under Xiao Yunqi's orders reached 70,000, with a total of eight guards, and their territory was expanded, extending from Yecang City to Hongzhou City.

The snow covered the mound, and when all the fallen soldiers were buried in the earth, the snow reached its peak, and the snowflakes fell from the sky like huge pieces of paper, covering everything on the ground, covering all the bright and gloomy, joys, sorrows, and joys under the snow. The temporary beauty makes people mistakenly think that this is peace, but when the snow melts after the beginning of spring, the original ugliness and gore will be re-revealed to everyone, but only if these people can live until the day when the spring and snow melt.

Xuan Shaoning may have expected the day when the snow melted, but what came to his mind at this moment was the marriage bridge of Tianfu Temple in the capital. I remember that the day before I went to Tenfukuji Temple, it was also so heavy snow, and when I arrived at the marriage bridge, the whole bridge was also covered with a layer of snow-white blanket. It is said that the marriage bridge is spiritual, as long as the two people who are in love can get the same red rope, they can be together.

Hmph, Xuan Shaoning smiled a little sarcastically and helplessly, this rumor can't be true after all. I and her are just acquaintances in the end, and the past has just become a memory, perhaps, missing is also a kind of beauty, right? Or maybe Ke Ran will be very good to her.......

No one can be happy when the entire mountain col is about to be filled with the tombs of these soldiers, and the robe that used to stand by his side and smile will soon turn into a pinch of loess, and perhaps one day he will follow in their footsteps. But even if so, so what? Isn't the Horse Leather Shroud an honor that soldiers can afford? Isn't burying the bones of the faithful in Qingshan the destination that soldiers should have?

When the large army returned to the city, Xuan Shaoning could fall behind the team, since he came to this military mound valley, he naturally wanted to visit his brother. Xuan Shaoning stepped on the snow and came to Song Mi's tomb again, he didn't remember how many times he came, what he was sure of was that every time he came, he could unload a part of the burden in his heart.

This time Xuan Shaoning kept an eye on it, he first checked whether there were footprints around the tomb, in this snowy day, it is easy to leave footprints, and it is easy for footprints to be covered. After looking around the tomb, this time it was clean, but the footprints found before were always in Xuan Shaoning's heart and never forgotten.

"Brother Song, it's another year in the blink of an eye, and it's been four years since you left us" Speaking of this, Xuan Shaoning looked at the tombs of those brothers in the distance, and couldn't help but feel sad, "Brother Song, I can't repay what I owe you and my brothers in this life, if there is an afterlife...... "How can there be an afterlife?" Who knows if there will be an afterlife? Will you still be a person in the next life?

Thinking of this, Xuan Shaoning smiled self-deprecatingly, and on that side were buried Cao Tie, Cao Sikun, Qing Cang, Lei Peng, Xie Yi, and Meng Kebao, each of these people was deeply imprinted in Xuan Shaoning's mind, they were his true brothers. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of Xie Yu and Xing Gang, who I didn't know if they were still alive and had been missing for more than half a year. When the four of them secretly went to the capital together, he and Xiao Yunqi fell into a trap, and they haven't seen the two of them since, what happened to them?

If they hadn't revealed any news for the time being in order not to reveal their identities and traces, Xuan Shaoning would still be understandable, but seeing that so much time has passed, and at the same time, the battle situation on Mobei's side will definitely spread to the capital and even Daliang, they should find Mobei back.

"Xie Yu and Xing Gang, what happened to the two of you? If you are still alive, come back to Yecang City, I will only be the two of you left of the original ten people, don't make me feel guilty for the rest of my life......."

Xuan Shaoning stroked Song Mi's tombstone and wiped off the snow on it, after he entered the barracks, these people who had the deepest friendship left one after another, and they were the only ones left, they must not pass so silently, they must find their news.

Xuan Shaoning bowed to Song Mi's tomb and turned around to see a person standing at the foot of the mountain, a woman to be exact. The woman's goose yellow cover stood slim in the snow, and for a moment, Xuan Shaoning appeared in a trance, and he once thought that it was Yun Xuan who was standing in the snow!

Every step he took was extremely careful, Xuan Shaoning was afraid that if he moved too much, Yun Xuan would disappear out of thin air. It's a pity that no matter how hard he tries, Yun Xuan still disappeared after all, or Yun Xuan never appeared, and it was Rouge who was standing in front of Xuan Shaoning at this moment.

"Rouge? How are you dressed like this today? ”

"The valley of the military mound can not only have snow and black soil, they also need some color to sleep here, they did not die in vain, their names are remembered in the hearts of those of us who are alive, they are true heroes! So I'm not going to show up here in plain clothes, I want to decorate the Bunzuka Valley with more vivid colors, and I think they will be happy if they know about it. ”

Xuan Shaoning suddenly felt that Rouge was not only empathetic but also had some unique ideas that were quite different, and more importantly, he felt that Rouge's goose yellow was not much inferior to Yun Xuan.

"It's not too early, why don't we go back to the city together?"

Looking at the cheeks that were a little red from the rouge, a soft place in Xuan Shaoning's heart was finally touched, he smiled, and he began to understand the meaning of the words "care about the people in front of you" that the master had said, so he nodded vigorously.
