422 brothers
"Boom!" Hearing the loud explosion outside the window, Shen Baihe, who was lying on the bed, finally opened his eyes, and in the days when he was in a coma, a person who set off first and rushed from Ceylon to the front line in Ceylon in one breath had already taken over all the command affairs of the front line. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This person is Shen Lie, who has been recuperating at home, and he is also the one in the older generation of the Shen family who has led soldiers and has a calm enough personality.
If it weren't for his serious illness, then this time the front-line commander of Ceylon would not be the two brothers Shen Baihe and Shen Ruyu, but the more senior.
"Retreat!" Open your eyes! Shen Baihe shouted out the two words that he had been holding in his heart, and then he sat up from the bed in an instant, struggling to get up.
However, soon he stopped his movements, looked at Shen Ruyu who was sitting in the room, and the whole person collapsed and sat back on the bed.
"He won! He won! Looking at the gloomy face, there was no trace of Shen Ruyu, who was full of confidence when he first arrived on the Southeast Peninsula, Shen Baihe said bitterly.
Shen Ruyu knew who Shen Baihe was talking about, he was conceited that he and Shen Baihe were the youngest and most capable generals of the Shen family, but they were so ugly defeated under each other's hands.
Seeing that the other party woke up and was talking to himself, Shen Ruyu didn't react at all, but grabbed the wine jug in front of him and drank it with a grunt.
Obviously, this former beautiful son has now become a complete drunkard. It's no wonder that he looks like this now, if Shen Baihe doesn't faint, it is estimated that he will end up now.
What awaited the two of them would be the harshest punishment of the Ceylon Parliament, and it would be the end of the two of them taking their own initiatives.
"On January 11, the troops of the Ming Empire marched south into Baishan...... On January 12, the troops of the Ming Empire captured Thanh Hoa. After taking a sip of wine, he felt that his throat and stomach were burning, and Shen Ruyu opened his mouth to say this, and then stopped talking.
His words made Shen Baihe almost faint again, the unlucky Shen Baihe was still near Nanding before he fell unconscious, and in just a few days, the battle line had been pushed to Thanh Hoa......
Now in this situation, it is no wonder that Shen Ruyu is so decadent, the two of them must be a dead end, and even the Shen family is estimated to be implicated in this fiasco.
"It's not a pity for me to die, why don't you fight to the death?" Shen Baihe's face was pale, and despite the fact that he had just woken up from a coma, he opened his mouth to question Shen Ruyu.
If Shen Ruyu can fight to the death on the front line, maybe he can save some of the situation. Or can use a death to help the Shen family avoid the implication of this failure.
"Shen Lie is here and has taken the military power from me, what can I do? Suicide is not martyrdom! Shen Ruyu smiled bitterly, and then stopped talking.
Shen Lie? Hearing this name, Shen Baihe was a little relieved. At least when he and Shen Ruyu were like this, someone took over the burden of command, which can already be said to be a blessing in misfortune.
On the Korean Peninsula, the Ming Empire captured Pyongcheng on the 11th and began shelling Pyongyang on the 12th; On the southeastern peninsula, the Ming Empire was also astonishingly fast, occupying Baishan on the 11th and entering Thanh Hoa on the 12th.
Compared to the Japanese defenders, who had to defend every city on the Korean Peninsula, the Ceylonese army in the southeastern peninsula was much more dignified, and they abandoned these cities and chose to retreat before they were besieged.
As a result, the Ceylon defenders retained their elite troops, and Shen Lie calmly set up a new defensive position in Rong City.
With a few additional men, the Ceylonese defenders were able to secure their line. The tactic of exchanging land for time also made Wang Jue, Sima Mingwei and Wang Yan on the attacking side, all have a headache.
It was very infuriating that they had taken over many cities on the southeastern peninsula and had not eliminated the Ceylonese forces in a structured manner.
But in this way, there is also an advantage, that is, Wang Jue occupied enough land before Miao Shengye rushed to the Southeast Peninsula and achieved an obvious advantage.
This is an important premise for two opponents of equal strength: if two players of the same caliber are playing against each other, then whoever lands two pieces on the board first will gain a huge advantage.
"What are you going to do?" Shen Ruyu, who was already a little drunk, looked at Shen Baihe, who was barely standing up, and asked in a daze.
"Please defend Rong City and live and die with Rong City!" Shen Baihe opened his mouth and said. After all, as Shen Ruyu's eldest brother, he still has some responsibilities.
Although the two brothers sometimes think about competing for the position of the future head of the Shen family, he thinks more than Shen Ruyu and understands what the Shen family means to them better.
If the Shen family falls, they are still struggling in the army, and it is impossible for them to hold a military power. So for the descendants of the Shen family, the Shen family must not fall!
As long as the Shen family is still there, then their children and grandchildren will still have a rise one day, and they will have more capital to compete than others.
But if the Shen family is gone, then there is nothing. At that time, let alone Miao Shengye, countless Shen family members with mediocre qualifications would be buried in the long river of history.
"Don't go! This is Rong City! Shen Ruyu looked at his brother and suddenly laughed and said, "Actually, the first thing Shen Lie did when he came here was to let you and me come to the front line to atone for your sins!" ”
Shen Baihe was stunned for a moment, then unloaded his strength, staggered to Shen Ruyu's side, pulled out a chair and sat down: "He did the right thing!" ”
In Shen Baihe's opinion, Shen Lie is a calm elder, and he has always taken care of the two brothers. Being able to ruthlessly arrange for them to hold the line of defense in Rong City was obviously a signal from the Shen family to Miao Shengye.
This signal is in Miao Shengye's place, and it seems to be: "My Shen family doesn't plan to protect these two people, if you want to do it, don't face the Shen family!" ”
In this way, the Shen family stayed out of the matter, and the two of them were safer. Because the punishment against the two of them could not implicate the Shen family, it didn't make so much sense to attack the two of them.
"It doesn't matter if he's doing it right or not...... The two of us can only die here and give the Shen family an explanation! Shen Ruyu handed the wine jug to Shen Baihe, as if talking about someone else's fate.
"I can't think of it, I can't think of it...... Fighting back and forth, the position of the head of the family is not your and my brother's thing! Shen Baihe took the flask, and despite the fact that he had just woken up, he poured the liquor into his mouth with a wry smile.
