Three Hundred and Two Rejoice, Great Song (4)
"Anyway! We all have to defend Dazhai for Ben Shuai! Lost Dazhai, all the officers below the command officer! Kill them all! Zong Ze gave the most cruel order since he took office with red eyes, and after receiving this order, Liu Hong, the commander of the system, no longer had a trace of luck, and yelled: "Brothers! Follow me! He is also a strong man who died on the battlefield! Don't lose the face of your ancestors! Zong Shuai! Take care of the Lastman's family! ”
Looking at Liu Hong's distant figure, Zong Ze's vision was a little blurred, this young general was a young man he admired very much, not very old, but he was very thoughtful, and his force was also very strong, and more importantly, he was literate and had read military books, it is said that he had studied with a famous teacher when he was a child, and he didn't want to join the army, so he felt very ashamed, but before Emperor Zhao Huan canceled a series of policies that discriminated against soldiers, and he hated the shame brought by the Jin people to the Great Song Dynasty, so he made up his mind and signed up for the forbidden army with a grit of teeth and a glare.
Later, he became a squad leader in the first batch of reorganized armies, and after the outbreak of the Third Song-Jin War, he followed Zong Ze north to Tokyo City to act as a barrier for Ying Tianfu and the emperor.
After months of fierce battles to the death, he finally entered the eyes of Zong Ze, after a conversation, Zong Ze was pleasantly surprised to find that this is a good young man with cultivation value, which slowly promoted him to the position of a military commander, led 10,000 soldiers and horses to make a lot of meritorious achievements, is one of the two fierce generals under Zong Ze who is as famous as Zong Ze's son Zong Xin, and is deeply feared by the Jin soldiers.
For months, the fight against the Jin soldiers. Sticking to Dazhai is indispensable. Later, the troops were not strong, and the combat strength was not good. Dazhai was taken away by the Jin soldiers five times, but it was recaptured five times at a great cost under his desperate counterattack, the name shocked the Jin army, the sixth time, he really couldn't hold on, more than 800 people left in 10,000 brothers can still stand, and the rest are basically killed in battle, which is also extremely cruel and unacceptable for him.
But so what? In order to operate the Tokyo Defense Line. Zong Ze took great pains to contain the Jin Bing's front line north of the Tokyo line, and at this time, the Tokyo defense line was still a little bit to complete, how could he lose the Yellow River defense line at this most critical moment? This is unacceptable to Zong Ze, naturally, Liu Hong, who lost the center of Dazhai and caused the defense line to be completely broken, was also ordered by Zong Ze to recapture Dazhai with a death order, and held on until he ordered a retreat.
He was given only 1,200 men besides his own 800 brothers.
Liu Hong pleaded: "The soldiers and horses under his command have suffered heavy losses, and I should ask Zong Shuai to allocate some more men and horses." ”
Zong Zetie's face was blue. reprimanded: "In the past, Yue Shuai fought against 150,000 gold thieves with 30,000 soldiers, and he would never surrender and admit defeat until the last soldier, it was still in the field, it was a field battle!" You have two thousand more. There is also Dazhai, there are only 10,000 golden soldiers attacking you! What else do you have to say? Liu Hong, you remember Ben Shuai. Unless you throw in the towel yourself. No one can beat you! ”
Liu Hong rushed forward with his soldiers and horses with red eyes, and the sound of swords, guns, swords, and halberds was endless. At sunset, Liu Hong sent someone to send the news - Dazhai was recaptured, more than 2,000 Jin soldiers were killed, and he still had 176 soldiers and horses left who could fight, and it was expected that the whole army would be wiped out before noon tomorrow, and he asked the marshal to prepare early.
Zong Ze looked at the bloodied herald, his heart kept dripping blood, Liu Hong is such a rare young man, he grew up on the battlefield, but he has a foundation in the art of war, theory and practice, his future is definitely much stronger than himself, as long as he can get enough time to grow, then everything is not a dream, but a reality that can be touched, but, but ......
Zong Ze looked at the world behind him, the land and the people he loved deeply.
For their sake, he would rather give up this future star, what he has to do is to defend the city of Tokyo to the death, and not let a single soldier cross here to trample on the world he loves deeply that is not ready.
For the sake of this deep love, he would rather lose everything he had, including his own life, and the lives of future generations that are more important than his own life.
Zong Ze never thought of himself in his heart, he never thought about himself, he kept thinking about the Great Song Dynasty, for the Great Song that he loved so much!
"Xin'er, after Liu Hongzhan dies tomorrow, I will ask you to replace him, are you afraid?" Zong Ze looked at his favorite youngest son and said so.
Zong Xin shook his head and asked with some puzzlement: "Father, the child is not afraid, the child just doesn't understand, why didn't the father remove Liu Hong?" Liu Hong is a rare talent, didn't my father say the same? ”
Zong Ze looked at the big village fluttering the battle flag of the Song army in the distance, and his tone was unprecedentedly sad: "Only him, only him, only he can buy time, Xin'er, there is no talent in the hands of his father, even you have to be sent to death, don't blame your father, Xin'er, your father will come with you soon." ”
Zong Xin was suddenly startled, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Zong Shuai! Zong Shuai is the safety of half of the Great Song Dynasty, and the life of one person is not enough to pity, and he also asks Zong Shuai to consider the people of the country, save the useful body, and don't die in battle! ”
Zong Ze looked at his little son, tears blurred his eyes again, stretched out a trembling hand, and pressed it on Zong Xin's head: "Good boy, good boy, you really deserve to be the son of my Zong family, you really deserve to be my Zong Ze's son, Xin'er, don't worry, don't be afraid, do what you have to do, for your father, proud of you!" ”
Zong Xin's body was trembling all the time, from Zong Ze's tone, Zong Xin heard something, he knew his father, and even knew his father too well, once it really came to that time, his father would do whatever it takes, including his father's own life!
But how can this be the case for a child?
Zong Xin set his sights on the south, Lin Chong, Luda, you two are worthy of being famous generals in the Western Army, cowardly as mice, let my father, a person with a sixtieth armor, bear half of the safety of the country, and you can be saved under your father's wing, have you ever felt a trace of guilt? Your Majesty trusts you two so much, but you two are so cowardly? Can you afford the name of the Western Army?
Of course, he knew that Zong Ze had asked Zhao Huan several times to send one of the two Lin Chong Luda to sweep the battle for himself and be the main force in the army, but none of the two arrived, Zong Xin didn't understand very much, his father was about to be seventy years old, and he was a veritable old man with half of his body in the ground, but why did his father have to bear the safety of the country? My father's experience is about to be exhausted, and even his body is about to collapse, and he has passed out several times when he was dealing with official business at night.
Lin Chong, Luda, known as the first fierce general combination of the Western Army, was trusted by His Majesty the Emperor, became the chief and deputy commander of the forbidden army, and was in charge of the military.
What kind of people is my father trying to protect with his life? Father, is it really worth it for you to work so hard?
The sun rose as promised the next day, and the attack of the Jin soldiers was also launched, and the one hundred and seventy-six warriors of the Song army, who regarded death as home, did not have the slightest intention of retreating, staring at the fluttering battle flag, under the leadership of the commander Liu Hong, firmly stationed in Dazhai, with the corpses of their comrades as obstacles, and the corpses of the golden soldiers as stepping stones, they built a human city wall, and desperately fought with dozens of times the enemy.
Zong Xin is ready to go, ready, ready to attack Dazhai, before Liu Hong is completely defeated, take his place, it is best to save Liu Hong, if not, but also to ensure that before he dies in battle, Dazhai will not be lost.
Once Dazhai is lost, the Yellow River defense line will completely collapse, and the time gained by the sacrifice of fifty or sixty thousand people will be meaningless, so this Dazhai must not be lost, and the second line of defense that has not yet been completed must not be destroyed by the Jin soldiers, which is Zong Xin's mission.
Zong Ze personally tied the battle robe for Zong Xin and handed over his battle flag to Zong Xin: "Either take it back or cover it back, my son Zong Ze must be a hero!" ”
Zong Xin knelt down on one knee and took the battle flag: "Father, forgive your son for being unfilial, and you can't support your father in his old age!" ”
Zong Ze waved his hand: "If you die on the battlefield, you should smile for your father!" ”
Zong Xin's body trembled, and then he understood what his father meant, turned around, Zong Xin rode on a war horse, and with a few soldiers and horses, he rushed to Dazhai who was making the last resistance.
Favorite son, the most qualified heir, is about to be lost, Zong Ze didn't feel so sad, he just felt that his heart was taken away from him, and he was very uncomfortable, he lowered his head, wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, and then raised his head again, held the sword in his hand tightly, and said to Zhang Liang beside him: "Brother Zhang, I'm really sorry, I didn't give you glory and wealth, but I want you to accompany the old man to die together, I'm really sorry." ”
Zhang Liang smiled and shook his head: "It is an honor to die with a hero like Zong Shuai, although he is not a Song person, but he is also a Han person, with the blood of the two emperors of Yan and Huang in his body, he can die for Huaxia and die as he deserves, how fast!" ”
Zong Ze smiled and held Zhang Liang's hand tightly: "In the past, Yue Shuai fought to the death in Tokyo City, and kept a piece of hope for the Great Song Dynasty, but now, it's time for the old man." ”
As soon as the words fell, Zong Ze heard a noise behind him, and even felt that the earth was constantly trembling, Zong Ze turned around, and from a distance, he saw a black crowd in the sky, which was galloping quickly, and when he looked at it, it was a large group of cavalry galloping over, and a bright battle flag flew first, Zong Ze recognized the word, the word he was very familiar with.
It's still coming......
A smile appeared on Zong Ze's face again, and this time, it was sincere. (To be continued.) )
