(a)
Episodes scroll through the timeline, repeating and then being forgotten. Grow, die, be buried, grow again, that's it: an indestructible life.
(b)
National Military Conference of the Yellow Dragon Fortress.
This was the last major national military conference convened by Liu Shen's Northern Han regime before the end of the war.
This 12-day meeting laid the foundation for 200 years of peace and prosperity in the new dynasty.
You stood up and faced Liu Shen, the main generals of the national army.
You say, "Ladies and gentlemen." Finally, the day has come when we can come together to discuss the end of the war that has plagued generations. Before discussing this topic, let us all stand in solemnity and mourn all those who have died in this great war. It doesn't matter if it's the enemy's or ours. They all died in the deepest darkness before dawn. When peace comes, they are no longer in this world, and fellow relatives have lost them forever. ”
Say, "There will be some of us who die before peace comes, so that our relatives, their peace in this life, will no longer be complete." However, there is such a price to be paid for correcting the wrong things. If you can't stop doing something wrong from the beginning, then the correction will need to be so painful and so difficult. There has to be someone to sacrifice for it. ”
You say, "Here, we hope that all the politicians in the country, all the people in the country, will see this sacrifice, remember this sacrifice, and not forget this sacrifice, and then from then on, from the beginning, not to do anything wrong." Like a pebble thrown into a huge lake, no one knows how big the turmoil it will eventually become. No one knows what the scale of a small military conflict, an angry idea of revenge, will turn out to be. ”
Liu Shen said with deep agreement: "Yes. The general was right. Recently I made a list of all the fallen soldiers. After peace comes, they will all be named. They are all engraved on the stone tablet, standing in all the official offices of the country, standing on the road of the Taimiao, and standing outside the main hall where I handle government affairs. It is necessary to let the undead of all flesh and blood stand in front of us politicians and leaders at any time. Remind us that the price of mistakes. ”
You say, "But we still have an uphill battle to fight before peace comes." On the southern front, to end the war, it is necessary to capture the city, and between us and the city there are 36 fortified cities. On the Northern Front, to end the war. The unified leadership of the Begi must be broken down and turned into a scattered mass of tribes, and to do so, we need to crush the backbone of the Khan's lineage and make them lose the Khan before they flee to Mobei. ”
You said: "In the battle on the southern front, in addition to the victory of the city, we must also add a new strategic goal: to reduce casualties. And not only to reduce the casualties of our soldiers. It is also necessary to reduce the casualties of the enemy's soldiers, and even more so, to reduce the casualties of the civilians in the enemy's territory. Because. After the end of the war, these enemy soldiers will be the soldiers of the Han King, and the enemy people will also become the people of the Han King. The enemy's city is our city. ”
"If we are in the final war, we will take the richest and most prosperous areas under the rule of the city. They have all become ruins and deserted villages, leaving hatred and hidden dangers in the future in the hearts of the people of the Han and Han Dynasty, not to mention, it is the reconstruction after the war, and it is also an amazing work, I don't know how many people's efforts will be spent. How much wealth is consumed. ”
"We must do as much as possible to reduce the damage to agriculture, to the city, to the population, to commerce, and to lay a solid foundation for post-war prosperity as we approach the densely populated and prosperous areas under the rule of Tojo. We are fighting for the prosperity and peace of the world, not for the destruction of everything. ”
"This requires that we must not be caught in a bitter struggle with the enemy army under every city, nor can we adopt a scorched earth strategy. Then, if the enemy is cowering in the city and can't hold out, how can we fight? It's still the old way. Surprised, with lightning speed, hit the places they had to protect, and let them go out of the city to protect. For example, the Shunyi warehouse, which is known as the granary of the world, let the city run out of grain. ”
"If we attack Shunyicang, Dongcheng will definitely not be able to hold it back, and mobilize the strength of the surrounding cities to defend Shunyicang, and as soon as the elite forces in the city come out, the city will be empty. We can start the siege. If they don't come out, it doesn't matter, we can choke the throat of Dongcheng and see how long they can go hungry. Under the pressure of hunger and fear, it is believed that there will be traitors among those who want to be prosperous and rich. ”
"And when the enemy army comes out of the city and fights us in the field, our superiority in cavalry and long-range weapons can be fully exploited. When fighting, we must concentrate our forces on dealing with the enemy's commander-in-chief, and we must use all kinds of thunderous means to surprise him, destroy him or capture him alive, and disintegrate the enemy's battlefield organization as quickly as possible, so as to produce a powerful psychological deterrent. ”
"We need to organize the best soldiers and the best shooters to form special strike teams to look for opportunities on the battlefield to carry out surprise attacks and decapitation on the enemy. Let every commander of the enemy clearly know that in the final stage of the war, choosing to confront us is to choose his own death and the joint sit-down of his family. ”
You beckoned your soldiers to bring the battle maps you drew in the carriage, hang them on the walls around the council hall, and show them to Liu Shen and the generals.
You say, "Here are some maps, 44 in total." Now, I would like to ask Wu Shun to look at these maps and explain in detail what kind of thinking we should follow to fight each battle, and how we should make choices and act at each key point. ”
"People are controlled by the thoughts of their hearts. We must strike not only at the enemy's army, but also at the enemy's heart. Let them be confused in their hearts, terrified in their hearts, terrified in their hearts, and trembling in their hearts. ”
"On the Southern Front, we are going to force the enemy to surrender in large numbers. It is necessary to let the enemy choose to surrender, and hand over the complete cities, intact villages, and formed armies to the new dynasty of the Han king. ”
You say, "Don't take a narrow understanding of your personal merits and think that if you don't fight, you won't have your personal merits." To be able to fight without a fight is the most brilliant personal feat. ”
You say, "One will be successful and ten thousand bones will wither, it is not our pursuit." Winning without a fight is our pursuit! ”

You suddenly become unsteady on your feet, holding your hands on the table in front of you.
A large pool of blood fell on the table.
Liu Shen stood up suddenly.
You hold on to the table, stand as hard as you can for a second or two, then lose your balance and fall under the table with a thud.
All the generals stood up with a bang.
(iv)
You wake up again. You see Liu Shen sitting on the edge of your bed with a sad face.
"I can't bear to watch it engulf you like this." Liu Shen said, "After the meeting, you should go back to Yunjing with me to recuperate." ”
You say, "King Han, do you remember the agreement when we made an alliance?" In order to correct the wrong thing, someone has to do the dangerous thing, and someone has to do the right thing. The minister's days are numbered, so let the minister do dangerous things for the king of Han, the king of Han is in full bloom, and ask the king of Han to do the right thing for the world. ”
You say, "The minister is responsible for letting people know the horrors of war, and the king of Han is responsible for letting people know the beauty of peace." In this way, in the future, it will not be easy for people, from the very beginning, to do things wrong. ”
You say, "King Han, please allow me to use my last time to do something for the new Taiping Dynasty." ”
Liu Shen listened to your words, and his heart fluctuated. His eyes moistened. At that moment, two words came to his heart: brother.
What made him feel like a brother was not his real brother, but the person in front of him, who had no blood relationship with him. This one who is in love with the same woman as him.
Liu Shen said: "It's a pity that I don't know how to heal, and I haven't found a good doctor for you who can rejuvenate your hands." ”
You say, "It is not the doctor who can prolong my life, but the king of Han." Only when King Han has always done the right thing can my life be truly continued. ”
You say, "Please King Han to do the right thing all the time when I can't see it." This is where King Han can really help me. ”
Liu Shen looked down at the ground for a while.
He said, "I see. ”
"I will spend my life doing my best to do the right thing," he said. ”
Liu Shen said: "I will spend my life trying to end the suffering of the world and open up peace and prosperity in the world." ”
"I swear I will do this for all those who have disappeared in the process of ending the war," he said. ”
He said, "My life is the life of all of them." ”
"Rest assured, I will not fail with all the sweat, tears and blood," he said. I will be a good emperor. ”
You look at Liu Shen.
You say, "Well, we've all done what we're supposed to do in this life." We all have nothing to regret. ”
Liu Shen said: "Yes. There is nothing to regret. ”
You stretched out your hand towards Liu Shen.
You say, "I have no regrets for this." ”
Liu Shen shook your hand and said, "I have no regrets for this life." ”
