Section 8 Sacrifice to the Soul of the Faithful

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the fields outside the village, as if a layer of golden millet was spread on the ground, peaceful and full of hope; The birds crossed the sky and flew to the comfort nest in the trees, nurturing the young birds in the nest, comfortable and warm. At this time, Donggou Village is a different scene: every family stands on the mound, and every household wears filial piety.

"What a tragedy on earth. In troubled times, human life is like a mustard. Liu Yunwei looked at the miserable situation of the villagers in Donggou and sighed.

When Lu Ying heard this, he felt that Liu Yunwei's words were a little inappropriate, and persuaded: "Big brother, although it is said that Jiannu is disturbing the border now, but the dynasty is still in the world, and he is in front of outsiders, and he can't say much about the troubled times." ”

"Humph!" Liu Yunwei pointed to the villagers who were burying their families and asked, "Is this the so-called ruling the world?" Could it be that this Donggou Village and this Liao River are border places? ”

Lu Ying was silent, just shook her head and sighed.

"Big brother, Lu Ying is also kind-hearted, I'm afraid that people with ulterior motives will take advantage of the topic." Wen Poyu said.

Zhao Kaishan also persuaded: "Yes, big brother, today's speech officials are like mad dogs, if it reaches their ears, I don't know how many pickled things are placed on the eldest brother, even if the eldest brother is not afraid of the speech official, it will be annoying." ”

"I understand that my brothers are all for my good. I'm just angry, angry at the cowardice of these villagers, angry that the Tartars can wreak havoc on the land and kill the people. The more Liu Yunwei spoke, the more excited he became, "We are deceiving ourselves!" Deceive your own country and the dynasty is stable, and the four are obedient. But what is the reality? Jiannu has wreaked havoc in the hinterland of Liaodong! The people were wantonly slaughtered, but the officials and soldiers could not defend the land and the people! Daming, what's wrong! ”

Silence, everyone is silent, no one answers, no one knows. Weijia is all over the world, and the Ming Dynasty, which is dominating the East Pole, what's going on?

At night, a bonfire was lit in Donggou Village, and the village after the disaster looked a little gloomy and gloomy in the light of the fire in the night.

The living gathered around the bonfire to prepare for the funeral of the families who died in the battle and the villagers who died. At this time, sadness and despair are contagious among the people; And hatred and grief invaded among the soldiers.

Liu Yunwei saw that everyone had arrived, and walked in front of everyone, everyone's emotions were imprinted on their faces and reflected in Liu Yunwei's eyes. Liu Yunwei is the same in his heart, but as the main general, he can't let negative emotions accumulate and amplify in his heart. He wants to shout loudly, vent loudly, and expel all his emotions into a roar.

Liu Yunwei said loudly to everyone: "Brothers, fathers. The country is unfortunate, and the Tartars are raging. The people of Hujia Village and Donggou Village were suddenly robbed, so that their homes were all destroyed, and their relatives were separated by yin and yang, which was the pain of the people of the Ming Dynasty and the shame of the Ming generals! ”

When the surviving people heard Liu Yunwei's words, they remembered their relatives who were killed by Jiannu, and they immediately cried again.

The pain in the hearts of all the fathers and elders, Liu felt the same way. However, the deceased has passed away, and the living should mourn even more, and everyone must live well. Only by living can we rebuild our homeland and take revenge! The blood we shed today will be repaid tenfold by Jiannu one day! ”

The cries of the people gradually became smaller, and some young and strong men, inspired by Liu Yunwei, wiped away their tears and looked at Liu Yunwei with a firm face, their eyes full of hatred for Jiannu!

Liu Yunwei looked at the brothers who were fighting with him again, and said: "In today's battle, Liu has the honor to beat the Tartars with all the soldiers, this is my glory!" ”

"How can you say that you have no clothes! Fellow with the Son! ”

These soldiers of the Ming Dynasty did not respond to Liu Yunwei with too many words, just this one sentence is enough!

How can you say that you have no clothes! Fellow with the Son!

This sentence will never be understood by Jiannu and Hu people, because whether it is Jiannu or other Hu people, they fight hard to plunder, to take other people's wealth and land for themselves, and they only fight for themselves. All the Hu people, including Jiannu, will only bring destruction and death, ignorance and backwardness! They are aggressors! The aggressor does not understand the meaning of "comrade".

And the word "comrade" has been integrated into the blood of the Han family! Because the descendants of the Xionghan and Tang Dynasty fought bloodily to defend their homeland, to defend Huaxia Shenzhou from being violated, and to defend the absolute dominance of the Han nation in this land! The Han family is in the same hatred!

"Fellow robes" are the heroes who attack Hu Lu and seal the wolf Juxu from afar! It is the Tang Dynasty that returns to obedience in all directions and is respected by the four seas! It is the iron cavalry that would rather die than retreat in the face of the Tartars, and use his flesh and blood body to block the Great Song Dynasty in front of Huaxia! It is the emperor who guards the gate of the country, the king dies, and will never give in to Yidi!

Nearby, the fallen family members have been placed on a high pyre ready for cremation. There are still a few days to go to Liaoyang, and there may be encounters on the road, the remains of the family members can not be carried, and they are buried on the spot and are afraid that the Jiannu will come back to destroy it, so they have no choice but to cremate and take the ashes away.

Liu Yunwei pointed to the pyre on the side and said to the family: "The soldiers who died tonight have already taken the glory of the Ming warriors on the road. And what about us who are alive!? ”

"Fight to kill Hu and defend the land for the country!"

"Fight to kill Hu and defend the land for the country!"

Looking at the roaring family members, Liu Yunwei's heart stirred: "As long as these brothers are around, why am I afraid of Jiannu!" ”

Liu Yunwei said to Zhao Kaishan: "Pile up the heads of the Tartars." Tonight, use the head of the Tartar to pay tribute to the souls of the heroes who died in battle, and the people who were killed. ”

"Order!"

Zhao Kaishan took his family to pile up the one hundred and sixth-level heads he had won into a Jingguan and took Hu Shou as a sacrifice. When the surviving people saw that the revenge had been avenged, they all wept bitterly. The young men shouted loudly with excitement.

Liu Yunwei looked at the hideous Jiannu head and thought, "This is just the beginning!" From now on, I will never die with Jiannu and the Tartars who dare to offend China! ”

Liu Yunwei took one last look at the martyrs, raised the torches, and lit the pyre.

The fire soon spread to the entire pyre, Liu Yunwei and Lu Ying and other four generals and family members stood aside, looking at the raging fire, these iron-blooded men couldn't help but cry.

"The body is dead, and he is buried in Nanshan. The mountains are majestic, and the sky is vast. There are trees in the mountains, and the country is dead, and the soul returns to see the country. ”

"When he is dead, he will be buried in Nana. Life is short, and the years go by. There is nothing to live and die, and the soul returns to see the mountains and rivers. ”

"When the body is dead, he is buried at the foot of the mountain. The sky is high, and the wind is solemn. Hold on to the spirit flag, return the soul, and keep the relatives forever! ”

The funeral song sounded with the fire, Lu Ying, Wu Xing, Wen Poyu, and Zhao Kaishan sang and harmonized, the family members sang and harmonized, and the soldiers were sending their comrades on the road and returning to their hometown!

Liu Yunwei looked at the brothers who got along day and night turned into ashes, the grief in his heart could no longer be controlled, and he cried loudly: "I have no regrets in this life to enter China, and I will still be born in the Ming family in the next life!" Brethren, it's ~on the road~! ”

The family members shouted in unison: "Go on the road with peace of mind!" ”

The flames lit up the dark night sky.

"The night club has passed, Daming has these loyal soldiers, there are countless hard-working and brave people, no matter how big the ordeal can survive, God, after all, it is an eye-opener! Jiannu! I see how long you are rampant! ”

Although it was already April, the night in the north of Daming was still very cold, and it was even a little cold in the early morning.

Liu Yunwei was woken up by a gust of cold wind, and Lu Ying on the side saw it and handed over a bowl of hot porridge, "Big brother, drink some hot ones." ”

"Why don't you sleep?" Liu Yunwei took a sip and asked.

"Slept." Lu Ying took the empty bowl and asked, "Big brother, what are we going to do next?" ”

"Go directly to the direction of Liaoyang, and the specific route will have to be discussed with Poyu, he is more familiar with it."

"Then I'll go and call the captives." Lu Ying got up and was about to go to find Wen Poyu.

"Okay, call everyone over, and let's sum it up together."

"Yes."

"Look, this is the Donggou Village where we are located, and then go east is the Hara River, cross the river, and the fast horse can reach the boundary of Changning Fort in another day." Wen Poyu said to everyone with a brief map, "When you arrive at Changning Fort, you won't be far from Liaoyang." ”

Liu Yunwei asked: "Do you have any opinions on the route that Po Yu said?" ”

Several people shook their heads, indicating that they had no opinion.

Liu Yunwei said: "Okay, the general route will be followed according to what the prisoner said." ”

"Yes." The four generals will answer the way.

Liu Yunwei said again: "Brothers, it can be seen from the results of this battle that Jiannu's combat power is indeed strong. In the battle of Donggou Village, although we won, our brothers also suffered a lot of casualties. Speaking of which, we're still losing. ”

Wu Xing said in a deep voice: "That's true, the family members we bring are all veterans selected from the old battalion of the Sichuan Army, and they are all elites who have survived a hundred battles. Most of the Jiannu are auxiliary soldiers such as followers and Yu Ding, and the armor soldiers lost by Jiannu are comparable to mine. In this way, we did not take advantage, this is still in the case of the advantage of the raid. ”

"It's not too little for the Tartars to die, it's good to be dead. But if one of our brothers dies, it will be a loss. Wen Poyu remembered that four or five of his men had died in battle, and he couldn't help but say resentfully.

Zhao Kaishan agreed very much with what Wen Poyu said, and echoed: "Poyu is right, how can the cheap life of the Tartar be compared to my Han family's son!" ”

"Alright, let's talk about the next thing." Liu Yunwei took over the conversation and said, "Since we have a preliminary understanding of Jiannu, we must be more careful when we encounter them again in the future to avoid unnecessary casualties."

"Yes." The four generals responded in unison.

"Also, tell the brethren that they should set out at two o'clock and cross the Hara River eastward."

"Yes."

Zhao Kaishan glanced at the people around him and asked, "Big brother, what about these people?" It's hard to say that the Tartars won't come again. ”

Liu Yunwei looked around, a little helpless, and said, "We can save them for a while, but we can't save a lifetime." If you want to do it once and for all, you can only defeat Jiannu completely! Before we set out, persuade the people to leave here and go elsewhere to live. ”

The crowd was silent.

In the early morning, Donggou Village lost its former vitality, and the surviving villagers had scattered and gone elsewhere to survive.

Liu Yunwei was already dressed neatly, and the surrounding family members were also fully armored and ready to go.

Lu Ying came to Liu Yunwei on horseback, clasped his fists and saluted: "Big brother, the brothers have arrived, when will we leave, please show the big brother!" ”

Liu Yunwei looked at the soldiers in front of him, the warriors of the Ming Dynasty were full of energy and heroic at this time, and the haze and grief in Liu Yunwei's heart were also swept away with the improvement of the morale of the soldiers.

"Soldiers! Brothers! Follow me and go! ”

For a time, the horse's hooves made a comeback, and the warriors galloped their horses.

When everyone came to the entrance of the village and was about to go east, they were blocked by a group of people. The first one shouted, "The general stays!" ”
