Chapter 257: The Benevolence is Invincible
Zhang He had heard about the general process of the battle between Zhao Yun and Wen Chou and Yan Liang from the soldiers who were lucky enough to escape before, but compared with his own thoughts, the first two times seemed to be tyrannical fights, so how could he have such a gentle scene.
Those who know understand that they are dueling, and those who don't know think that they are testing each other's marksmanship.
Zhang He became more and more frightened the more he fought, what he was frightened was not anything else, but that his fighting spirit was gradually dying, as if he was not facing enemies, but relatives and friends.
With a "clang", Zhang He's spear fell to the ground, and the tip of Zhao Yun's spear pressed against his throat.
"I lost, General Zhao, please do it!"
Zhang He closed his eyes and waited for death, he knew that the only thing left for the loser was to perish.
Zhao Yun didn't realize that he had won until this moment, and this hearty battle was a feeling he had never felt since he practiced martial arts, as if he had not experienced a killing, but had completed a baptism of human nature.
"Yun Shuai won, Yun Shuai won!"
"Yun Shuai is amazing, great!"
The onlookers began to boil, and they watched a very literary and artistic competition, although it was not very enjoyable, but the result was exciting.
"Kill him, kill him!"
Regarding Zhang He's situation of closing his eyes and waiting for death, everyone present gave the same answer.
But Zhao Yun didn't do this, he put away the spear and pinned it behind him, and then stepped forward to pick up the red tassel gun that Zhang He had dropped on the ground, and finally threw it back to the third sister Zhao Yu.
"At the end of this battle, clean up the battlefield, bury the fallen soldiers on both sides on the spot, and bring back all the prisoners, and they must not be abused!"
Zhao Yun issued a military order, and it seemed that he didn't hear Zhang He's words begging for death.
"General Zhao, please kill me!"
Zhang He let out a Sisthic roar, and he just wanted to die quickly for the crushing defeat at the hands of his opponent.
Zhao Yun had already turned around and was about to leave at this time, but after listening to Zhang He's words, he said without looking back: "General Zhang, since you have the determination to die, why don't you have the courage to live!" Your mercy to her sister's subordinates shows that you are by no means indiscriminately killing innocent people, and you choose to hold your ground despite the defection of the soldiers, which shows that you are a true hero worthy of any of us to learn. ”
"Haha, haha, I kind of get it!" Zhang He was silent for a long time, and then laughed out loud as if he had an understanding, only to hear him continue, "Zhang Mou has always thought that the brave are invincible, as long as the force is strong enough and the soldiers are enough, there is no way to solve the matter, but it is only now that a certain person realizes how small his artistic conception is, it turns out that it is the benevolent who is stronger than the brave, the brave is murderous, and the benevolent is to teach and save people, the benevolent is to have great righteousness and the world, and the invincible will only be the benevolent!" ”
Hearing Zhang He's words, Zhao Yun couldn't help but pause, he has been wondering why he is different from usual today, it turns out that it is not that his marksmanship is wrong, but that the opponent he is facing has changed, he no longer regards the opponent as an enemy, but as a friend who wants to be influenced.
"Haha, General Zhang He, that's great!"
Just as Zhao Yun was carefully commenting on the true meaning of Zhang He's words, a hearty laugh suddenly passed over.
When the onlookers saw the comer, they immediately spontaneously moved aside, and their expressions were unusually respectful, and they called out the word "lord" in their mouths.
When Zhao Yun heard this, he knew that Yuan Lang was coming, although the generals above and below refused to let Yuan Lang follow, but he still came.
Sure enough, Zhao Yun saw a young and handsome man, wearing armor and riding a high-headed horse, who else could it be if it wasn't Yuan Lang.
"I've seen the lord, Yun Xing has recovered this place without dishonoring his life!"
When Zhao Yun saw Yuan Lang, he immediately stepped forward to salute and gave a rough report on the battle situation.
Yuan Lang got off the horse, helped Zhao Yun up, bowed to all the soldiers present, and said loudly: "Soldiers, you have worked hard, I, Yuan Lang, thank you for the people of the city, without your death, there would be no victory, thank you!" ”
The officers and men of the whole army were all overjoyed to see that the commander Yuan Lang respected their achievements so much, and this battle was much simpler than expected, and it also brought endless encouragement and hope for a bright future to everyone.
"General Zhang He, what else do you have to say?"
After communicating with the soldiers, Yuan Lang asked meaningfully to Zhang He, who was waiting to be killed in front of him.
"What do the generals of the defeated army have to say, they just want to die quickly!"
Zhang He resolutely only wanted to die, and he could see that he knew the consequences of defeat.
"The big waves are sweeping the sand, I don't know how many heroes and heroes have been washed away, General Zhang He, it is easy to die, but if you live and leave a name for a thousand years, which do you think is easier and which is greater?"
Yuan Lang did not directly face Zhang He's determination to die, but dragged up the text with Rang and talked about the big truth.
"Zhang He is a martial artist, he doesn't understand those big truths, he only knows that the eldest husband would rather die standing than live on his knees! Heroes and heroes, a certain has always been admired, if you can't be such a character in this life, then you will die a glorious death, and you will never leave an infamy! ”
Zhang He has his own reasoning, it is already a great shame for the general of the defeated army to live, and he can't wait to kill himself immediately, if he is given a sharp weapon.
"Since ancient times, where have there been victorious generals, if they are all as General Zhang said, defeat is a shame, and they have to die to apologize, then how many heroes and heroes can be passed down through the ages!" Yuan Lang didn't wait for Zhang He to answer, and then said, "Each is his master, and it is right for General Zhang to follow the military order, but the commander is biased, as a subordinate, if he not only does not persuade but helps to abuse, then he is really guilty!" If General Zhang can see this layer clearly, then he will know whether he is guilty of defeat or helping the war! ”
Zhang He listened to Yuan Lang's words like an enlightenment, he only knew the generals who listened to orders, when had he heard of the generals who pointed out the commander, if they all did that, then how could there be the majesty of the commander and the etiquette of the subordinates.
However, Yuan Lang's words are not unreasonable, which of the generals who came to assist the Ming Lord in ancient times was not a person who dared to give direct advice, in other words, there were only those who flattered him with false intentions under the mediocre master.
Zhang He immediately thought of his lord Yuan Shao, isn't Feng Ji and Xu You under his account exactly flattering people, if it weren't for Xu You's selfish intentions, they would not have been so completely defeated this time.
Zhang He was speechless for a while, he had a thought in his heart whether he was completely wrong, and the consequence of this thought was that he began to doubt the path he had taken, was it all wrong?
"Zilong!" Yuan Lang saw that Zhang He fell into deep thought, and turned to Zhao Yun behind him, "The number of captives is unbearable with the current situation of the county town, and the casualties are so heavy, the people's hatred for them has reached its peak, and bringing these captives into the city at this time will undoubtedly make them hurt again!" ”
"The lord is reasonable, Yun is negligent, what does the lord mean?"
Zhao Yun was taken aback, what Yuan Lang said was all he didn't expect.
"I mean, give these captives rations and coils, let them go home!"
Yuan Lang's seemingly easy words rescued thousands of captives and gave them back their freedom.
"Haha, the boss is benevolent, the next will follow suit, the general's move is unprecedented, Zhang He admires!"
Zhang He suddenly burst out laughing, as if he had encountered something more enjoyable than winning the battle.
