Chapter 101: The End of the Hero (Part II)
"Same as I thought." Zheng Shuo sighed: "Let me tell you the truth, we have no reinforcements!" ”
The atmosphere in the secret room fell into a deathly silence, Qin Chongsan and the others all looked at their main generals in amazement, and after a while, Qin Chongsan hurriedly said: "Big... My lord, there was no messenger the day before yesterday. ”
"That's the one I sent out to disguise the messenger." Zheng Shuo closed his eyes: "Otherwise, do you think we can still hold on until now?" ”
Qu Chengchun was the first to wake up from the shock, he looked at Zheng Shuo's back as if he had realized something, and then quietly walked behind Zheng Xinglang, Rao is he was trying his best to hide himself, and his eyes still showed heavy sadness from time to time.
"My lord, how can this be??" Mei Ziqiang screamed: "They... How could they not send reinforcements?! ”
"yes, that's what I can't figure out." Zheng Shuo turned his head to look at Zheng Xinglang: "Xinglang, in the future, you must ask Yu Chi Fengyun in person for me what the old man thinks?!" ”
As soon as Zheng Shuo's words came out, Qin Chongsan and the others understood what the old general meant, no matter how stupid they were, and they couldn't help but be stunned again, the teacup in Zheng Xinglang's hand fell to the ground and shattered: "Father... You.... Child.... ”
"Tonight, you and the cavalry team will leave the Ridge Pass, here... It's already dead. After saying this, Zheng Shuo's appearance suddenly looked much older.
"Father!" Zheng Xinglang stood up: "The child is not leaving!" The child is absolutely ... ”
"Listen to me first." Zheng Shuo waved his hand tiredly: "I can die on the battlefield, but I can't let the Zheng family be ruined in the spine pass, Xinglang, you can't either!" Your younger brother Xingwang is dissolute and uninhibited, and it's a good thing that young people are hot-blooded, but he always relies on his identity to fight everywhere and offend a lot of people who shouldn't be offended. Xinglang, whether the Zheng family will be quietly wiped out in the future, or will it be able to shine, I will hand over this burden to you! ”
Zheng Xinglang took on the heavy responsibility of the cavalry commander of the Jiazhi Pass at a young age, not just because he was the eldest son of the Zheng family, but because he had real talent and real learning! His reason told him that his father's words made sense, but his feelings told him that he must not abandon his father and become a reviled deserter! Zheng Xinglang was just a young man after all, and in the battle between heaven and man, in the end, feelings prevailed, Zheng Xinglang just wanted to jump up, and suddenly two hands pressed heavily on his shoulders and pressed him back.
Zheng Shuo glanced at Qu Chengchun with satisfaction: "There are two kinds of people in this world, for people like us, it is easy to die generously, but it is even more difficult to endure humiliation, but for another kind of person, the situation is just the opposite. Xinglang, for the Father knows you, but... When my father is really old, people will become lazy and slippery when they get old, so I can only pick one easy thing to do, and leave the difficult things to you, Xinglang, you won't complain about the selfishness of your father, right? ”
Zheng Xinglang's tears finally couldn't help but burst out of his eyes: "Father... Father.... ”
"National enmity... Family hatred, your burden is too heavy! Zheng Shuo's eyes also moistened: "Xinglang, if you can do it, you must cut off the heads of those villains, comfort me, comfort the people who died tragically in the war, and... Don't forget to ask Wei Chi Fengyun for me, what does he think? I really don't understand... Zheng Shuo knew that the capture of Jiazhi Pass had become inevitable, and the displacement and tragic death of hundreds of people under the sword of the invaders had also become inevitable, Zheng Shuo really regretted that the always upright Wei Chi Fengyun had become so insidious, daring to ignore the lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, and deliberately pushing himself into a desperate situation.
Zheng Xinglang is extremely painful, he is a very resourceful and courageous young man, and there is no lack of enthusiasm, his feelings make him miserable, but his reason makes him have to suppress his pain. Zheng Shuo's bloody words smashed into his heart like a heavy hammer, Zheng Xinglang was powerless to refute, and he couldn't find a reason to refute, all he could do was clench his fists and bite his lips.
"Your Excellency!" Qin Chongsan stood up: "Let them escort the eldest prince away, the last general is willing to stay by the side of the adult!" ”
"A good man with three gangs, I'm worried about Xinglang's future." Zheng Shuo sighed: "If you help him, I will be much more relieved, you must know that Xinglang's future opponent is the imperial general Chi Fengyun!" So.... It's all up to you! ”
Qin Chongsan was speechless, sat back on the chair dejectedly, and Liu Peifan, who was doing it, suddenly raised his head: "My lord... Otherwise.... Will you come with us? ”
"Ridiculous!" Zheng Shuo laughed: "If I become a deserter and let Zamuhe in, the Zheng family will become the target of scolding from the people of Ji Zhouguo!" At that time, even if Xinglang has three heads and six arms, he will no longer be able to revitalize the Zheng family, don't you make me a sinner through the ages? ”
The atmosphere in the secret room fell into a deathly silence again, and no one could find a reason to refute Zheng Shuo.
"The general will inevitably die in battle! Whether it is for the country, for the people, or for the family, I, Zheng Shuo, will never leave the spine pass half a step! Zheng Shuo slowly stood up: "The old man has a career in fighting horses all his life, and he can be regarded as an outstanding meritorious, do you want to see the old man's reputation ruined?" ”
No one spoke, they knew that Zheng Shuo was a person who valued his reputation more than his life.
"You just fulfill the old man's wish, can't you be lazy after working hard all your life?" Zheng Shuo smiled and glanced at several people in the secret room, and finally landed on Zheng Xinglang.
Seeing the tragedy of dying on the battlefield as a laziness, Zheng Shuo's arrogance couldn't help but be disrespectful, Qin Chongsan's eyes overflowed with tears, Zheng Xinglang sat there and gritted his teeth, but he couldn't say a word.
Qu Chengchun, who was the calmest in the field, quietly wiped away his tears and asked in a deep voice: "My lord, as you said, Ji Shenglie and Wei Chi Fengyun have already controlled the military and politics of Ji Zhouguo, so... Where did you let the eldest prince go? No matter where we go, we can't escape the poisonous hands of Wei Chi Fengyun! ”
"You guys go to Fuzhou." Zheng Shuo had already typed the draft: "His Royal Highness is there, and... The money is there, too! Cheng Chun, don't you have great respect for that money? It just so happens that you can see with your own eyes that the money is inseparable. ”
"In the battle of Snow Plains City and Sunset Canyon that day, Qian Buli used soldiers to be unpredictable, but... Qu Chengchun smiled bitterly: "Fighting against Ji Zhouguo with Fuzhou is not an egg hitting a stone?" ”
"The old man has already decided to be lazy, don't ask the old man about this kind of thing!" Zheng Shuo laughed: "This is your business, and it is also the matter of the money, and it has nothing to do with the old man!" On that day, after Qian Buli defeated Zamuhe, he actually abandoned Xueyuan City and led the whole army south to Fuzhou, I think... He must have seen through the crisis! With this foresight, money will not necessarily be lost. ”
Qin Chongsan and the others were either sad and angry, or pondering, and for a while, no one spoke.
"For thousands of years, I, the people of Ji Zhou, have always been brave in internal strife and cowardly in foreign wars! After you arrive in Fuzhou, you must obey the dispatch of Qian You, and you must not do anything noisy, remember! Remember!!! Otherwise, you don't have to attack you with Wei Chi Fengyun, you will already collapse! Zheng Shuo's expression became solemn: "Du Bing and Ren Shuai were originally generals in the spine pass, I think they were too arrogant, so I transferred them to Xueyuan City, I wanted to sharpen their spirits, but who knew that they were reused by Jia Tianxiang, that old guy's eyesight is really powerful!" I know their temperament, money is not separated from thwarting Zamuhe is a strategy, and it is a strategy to be able to subdue Du Bing and Ren Shuai in a short period of time, under this person, you are still happy and convinced, otherwise... The consequences are unpredictable! ”
Qin Chongsan and the others glanced at each other and nodded silently.
Zheng Shuo walked to a painting and took out a golden box from the dark vault behind: "This is the secret decree and gold medal that His Majesty gave me ten years ago, originally to prevent it... Alas, Xinglang, you rushed to Fuzhou day and night with this secret decree, and with the secret decree and gold medal in hand, the officials along the way would never dare to stop you! Xinglang... Hello self-cherished! The heroic Zheng Shuo said this, and his voice couldn't help but tremble.
