Chapter 108: Three Thousand Nirvana, Five Hundred White Robes

Qingyun Castle, the fierce battle is in full swing, and the battle situation is very tragic.

The Jurchen general's silver technique could not be attacked for days, and he knew that it was difficult to go back and explain to Wanyan Zonghan. He went to ask for soldiers and horses and siege equipment, but Wanyan Zonghan only gave him a batch of ladders, crashing wood and goose carts, and did not allocate them to his men and horses.

Yinshu knows that if he can't take Qingyun Castle again, not only himself, but even all the soldiers who participated in this siege battle today will all be beheaded!

For the semi-barbarian Jurchens who were not ignorant and simple-minded, this simple and crude military method was the most effective.

Today is the deadline, and Yinshuke has taken out all the good wine and meat in the barracks to reward the whole army, and has also dedicated his love to the sergeants to vent. Then they tore down the tents, killed the women, and even took off their thick coats, and burned them all to the groundβ€”with all their might, the final blow!

If you can't beat Qingyun Castle again, you don't have to finish Yan Zonghan's order to cut off their heads, tonight, all these 10,000 Jurchen soldiers will freeze to death in Tianlong Mountain!

The raging fire burned in Tianlong Mountain, and black smoke billowed out. Under the cover of a vast white snow, it is very dazzling.

At this moment, under the female wall of Qingyun Castle, Zhang Yimin was personally bandaging Meng De's wounds.

This is Meng De's seventeenth injury, if it weren't for the gold-spine iron armor sent by Chu Tianya, he must have died countless times by now. For several days, Meng De has been taking the lead in killing the enemy at the head of the city, and the finely cast iron armor is about to be cut to pieces, and there are many arrow wounds riddled with holes.

Zhang Yimin gritted her teeth and reddened her eyes, but she was very quick when she bandaged Meng De's wounds. In the past few days, she has been used to doing such things, and she is about to practice her skills.

Not far away, many women were bandaging the wounds of the injured men or feeding them soup and medicine. The Jurchens attacked day and night, and it was rare to have such a moment of respite.

A raging fire broke out outside the city, and everyone looked at each other in amazement and speculation.

Meng De leaned against the female wall, closed his eyes and rested. In the past few days, he has not slept more than a stick of incense at all.

At this moment, several leaders ran to Meng De's side and hurriedly said, "Big brother, the Jurchen goose cart has been pushed over again!" This time it was a little different, the barbarians were all out of their gangs, and they burned down their tents. It seems that they are going to break the net and make a last stand! ”

Meng De opened his eyes, his eyes were blood-red, and he was full of light!

"Stand down!" Meng De waved his hand and let the women around him retreat from the city.

"Big brother, I can't hold it." The leaders all surrounded Meng De and said, "The arrows, boiling oil, wood, and cannon stones are all used up, and the houses and trees in the village are all used up to tear down and cut down." Now all we have is these slashed swords in our hands. How else to resist the Jurchens' fateful blow? ”

Meng De's brows furrowed, and he did not rush to speak. He wanted to listen to the voices of his brothers first.

"Big brother, brothers have followed you to this point, and they don't regret it. Whether you are alive, dead, or about to die, you will not regret it. "But we can't see that after the city was broken, our parents, women, and children died tragically under the sword of the Jurchens or were humiliated by them!" ”

"Yes, big brother! - We've discussed it, and it's all about this idea! The leaders spoke in unison.

Meng De's eyebrows sank, "What do you want to say?" ”

"Nirvana!"

These two words, like two sharp knives, were fiercely inserted into Meng De's heart!

"It's finally ...... It's come this far! ”

The Buddha said that those who attain nirvana are cool and quiet, those who are not disturbed, who are eternally silent in all suffering, who are not born or destroyed, who are not impure and impure, who do not increase or decrease, or who are free from samsara, or who attain the fruits of Buddhahood!

When Qingyun Fort was facing the siege of Zhang One-eyed and in danger, all the women hung white silk on the beams of the house, and the old man and the child each carried sharp knives and prepared for the last fight - life and death together, coexistence and death!

This is unique to Qingyun Castle, Nirvana!

But now, there are no beams in the village to hang white silk!

"Big brother, you can say something!" After all the leaders asked, they all fell silent, waiting for Meng De's words.

Not far away, Jin Bing pushed the goose cart slowly, and the war drums and shouts were already ringing in his ears.

The women who had just walked down the city all walked towards Qingyunping. It was a large open area where men practiced martial arts and archery, and now the snow had been shoveled and a lot of firewood and quilts had been piled up.

In addition to the young men who were still defending the city, all the seriously wounded, the elderly, children and women were gathered there.

A ring of torches, already lit.

Meng De looked fixedly at the group of people in Qingyunping, and his heart was dripping blood.

"Big brother, without further ado!" All the leaders fell to their knees in the snow.

"Brothers, get up." Meng De took a deep breath, "How many brothers do we have who can fight?" ”

"Less than fifteen hundred, all wounded."

"Okay." Meng De's teeth clenched, and his bones rattled, "Fight until there is no one left...... Nirvana! ”

"Yes, big brother!!" The leaders answered loudly and suddenly.

As ever, they are so neat, generous, and unhesitating!

Meng De held the knife tightly and closed his eyes, not wanting his tears to flow out at this time!

"If there is an afterlife, I, Mengde, will still be brothers with you!"

"If there is an afterlife, we still have to follow the eldest brother!"

"There are companions on the road of Huangquan, why be afraid of death!"

"Killβ€”"

Jin Bing's goose cart was less than a hundred steps away from the walled gate. This bulky but powerful siege machine was "inherited" by the Jurchens from the Liao. As the name suggests, there is a tall arrow tower shaped like a goose's neck above, and a heavy, sturdy crash car below. When it got closer, the archers above shot at the defenders, and after the blow, the crashing cars below came out to hit the gates.

When the final fierce battle was about to break out, the three patriarchs in Qingyun Castle and Zhang Yimin came to see Meng De together.

"Owner of the village, I'll wait for the old man to have something to say." Time is urgent, and the patriarchs will make a long story short, they said, "On Qingyun Ping, there are 3,000 villagers, and they would rather die than be humiliated by the golden dog, and they are willing to live and die with Qingyun." But if you all die in battle, who will avenge us? ”

"What do the patriarchs mean?" Mende asked.

"Have you forgotten that there is also a treacherous path leading to the outside of the mountain in the castle - the Monkey Cliff and the Hunter Stream? Isn't that where Dumbo came from? The patriarch said, "In order for Qingyun Castle not to become extinct, the owner of the village, you immediately select a part of the young people to escape from there!" Save your strength and leave it for him to avenge Qingyun Castle one day! ”

"This ......" Meng De was stunned for a moment, "Qingyun Castle has always lived and died together, how can you escape from the battle?" ”

"Since the owner of the village is a true hero, don't be brave in vain!" The patriarchs eagerly persuaded, "Qingyun Fort has been built for a hundred years, and after a lot of changes, life and death are boundless, and no one in the fort will ever be afraid of death. Today is the day of the destruction of Qingyun Village, it is easy to die, and it is really difficult to live. If the owner of the village can escape and ascend to heaven, the bloodline of Qingyun Village can survive, and there is hope for killing the golden dog to take revenge - otherwise, even if we die, we will die unwillingly! ”

At this time, all the leaders also gathered around, and after listening to these words of the patriarchs, they were all sad and angry, and finally someone shed tears.

"Owner, don't hesitate - let's go!"

Meng De naturally looked at Zhang Yimin, who was standing aside and had just been married to him.

"Shichiro, let's go!" Zhang Yimin smiled, "Marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog." Although the time for you and me to be husband and wife is still short, I have no regrets. Today, I am willing to nirvana with all the villagers. If you are a true man and a good man, you must flee with your brothers. Future...... Avenge us! ”

After that, Zhang Yimin's lower body gave Meng De a salute, turned around, and walked towards Qingyunping without looking back!

Meng De stood still and stretched out his hand, opened his mouth but couldn't speak, and finally, burst into tears!

"The owner of the village, the eldest brother - let's go!" The chiefs and chiefs all fell to their knees.

Meng De raised his head to the sky and roared, hysterical!

Suddenly thrust the Pu knife in his hand into the ground, and he roared angrily-

"Five hundred brothers, wearing white robes and hanging white filial piety - break through with me!"

……

In the middle of the night, on Tianlong Mountain in the southwest of Taiyuan City, the smoke was billowing from the flames, and the sky was about to burn red.

Wang Yu, Chu Tianya, Xiao Linglong, Xiao Fei and others stood at the head of the south gate together, quietly looking ahead.

Dumbo threw himself into the snow, slammed his fists on the ground, and cried to death.

That's right, this must be the flame of "Nirvana" of Qingyun Castle!

"It was I who harmed Meng De and Xishan." Chu Tianya stared ahead, without any expression on his face, "If it weren't for me to pinch it, they might not have such a disaster......"

"If Meng De hears your words, he will not only not be pleased, but will also be very disappointed." Xiao Linglong said, "Meng De is a real hero, and you have seen the people in Qingyun Castle. In the past, Zhang was besieged by one eye, and the women in the village all had a white silk! For the festival of righteous death, die a well-deserved death! β€”β€”This is the righteousness of Qingyun Castle, which can also be said to be a kind of spirit! ”

"What the county lord says is true." Wang Yu said, "Meng De and the righteous people of Xishan are determined to resist Jin and protect the country, even if they die, they will remain chivalrous. If they had blamed you, they wouldn't have ignited this flame of nirvana today! - If the old man is one of Mengde or any of the righteous people in Xishan, even if he dies, he will be grateful to you in his heart! ”

Chu Tianya was silent, his expression was frozen and his body stiffened. A cold wind blew, and he closed his eyes.

"Tianya ......" Xiao Linglong called out lightly with concern, but did not respond. She had never seen Chu Tianya like this. She didn't have to look at his expression or listen to him, she could feel his grief and anger from the bottom of her heart, and the boundless sorrow!

"Leave him alone, he'll be fine." Wang Yu looked straight ahead, his eyebrows were tightly twisted, his expression was solemn, and he said calmly, "What a man, he must be able to shoulder the responsibility, pretend to be love and hate in his heart, and burn blood in his chest!" ”

Chu Tianya closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and still didn't speak.

"War means death, and no one can escape or choose. If you can remain as generous as ever in the face of death, then you are a true warrior! Xiao Linglong said softly, "Tianya, I want to apologize to you and all the Song people, and promise one thing: from today on, I will never look down on the Song people again, and I will never mention the word 'Nanren' again-the fire on Tianlong Mountain made me see the blood of the Song people!" ”

Chu Tianya finally opened his eyes, his eyes were red, but there were no tears.

"I, Chu Tianya, also promise one thing." He said word by word, "If the Jurchen is not extinguished for a day, I will not go to the Yellow Spring for a day!" ”.
