In the face of the choice between life and death, no one will not hesitate, as a creature, as a higher creature, we can be born on the earth and enjoy life, what a difficult and rare thing, everyone's birth is like a gift from God, it is because of this gift that we can have today, so we cherish our lives incomparably.

How many people can give up their lives because of how many things, and they must do this thing without regrets?

Fang Hao stood beside Yue Fan, looking at Yue Fan's ink-stained hands trembling uncontrollably, remembering the information he had learned since this day, his heart was shocked: "Peng Zhan, you already know about the secret correspondence between the official family and the Jurchens, right?" The fisherman you are talking about is the Jurchen, right? I don't know why you judged a tribe with less than a million people a few years ago to be worthy of this fisherman, but I know that you don't want Zhang Shufu to make a northern expedition, do you? ”

Yue looked at his ink-stained hands, gritted his teeth, and said: "This Northern Expedition will be defeated, I don't know how many 200,000 forbidden troops can come back, I'm only worried about San Lang, I don't know if he can come back alive, he said in the letter to me that he had a premonition that he would die this time, and when I received this letter, I also had a premonition that he would die, and now, he has already led the army, and the 700,000 Liao army has been defeated by 100,000 Jin soldiers, what about us?" How many soldiers and horses can we use to fight the Golden Soldiers?

Liao is a country of brothers, and it can be safed to survive, and the country of Jurchen tigers and wolves will be a big disaster if it survives, at this moment, what if we recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun? The Jurchens will definitely go south, and where the Liao people can't hold it, we can hold it? At this moment, if you don't unite the Liao State, what else can you do? ”

Fang Hao turned his gloomy expression to the sunset in the west of the city, and said: "Liu Ziyu's father, Liu Tao, sent a letter to Liu Ziyu, saying that he opposed the Northern Expedition to Liao at this time, so he did not participate in the war, but he was very worried about the consequences of this Northern Expedition, he has been active in Northern Xinjiang all these years, and has learned a lot of news about the Jurchens, the Jurchens are brave and good at fighting, and they are by no means good, if they defeat the Liao State, so as to border the Great Song Dynasty, I am afraid it is not the blessing of the Great Song Dynasty, but it is too late to say anything now, the only thing that can be done, It was to lead the Northern Expedition before the Jurchens fully defeated the Liao army, recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and rebuild the defense line of the Great Wall.

But the Great Song Dynasty lacks war horses, lacks cavalry, although the 200,000 forbidden army is much, but most of them have not been on the battlefield, he feels that even if Zhang Ying has the experience of pacifying Jiangnan, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape defeat, he is now in Zhending, always pay attention to the frontline situation, once the front line collapses, Zhending will bear the brunt, once the time comes, Liu Tao may need Liu Ziyu to go north to Zhending to help him. ”

Yue Fu sighed deeply, propped his hands on the city wall, and said weakly: "How did Liu Ziyu answer?" ”

Fang Hao said: "Liu Ziyu replied that his family and country were in trouble, and he was duty-bound, but Jiqian Erzhou was in the ascendant, and he really couldn't get out, so even if Liu Tao wanted him to go north now, he couldn't do it, he was responsible for the position of the deputy envoy of the Jiangnan South Road of the imperial court, and had the duty of guarding the land and the people, but if there was really a police in the north, when the Jiangnan affair was over, he would definitely rush to Zhending to help his father, and never let the northern enemy go south." ”

After a pause, Fang Hao seemed to be very difficult, and asked in a hesitant and low voice, "Are we like this, nothing, and don't do anything?" ”

Yue Flip didn't speak for a while, watching the sunset gradually sink, Yue Flip slowly spoke: "Na, Zicheng, let me ask you, do you believe that there are people in this world who are not afraid of death?" ”

Fang Hao shook his head: "I don't believe it." ”

Yue Chuan then asked: "I don't believe it either, so I've always wondered, why do some people know that they will die, but they still want to go to the dead end, to rush, lest they die fast enough, not strong enough, that is certainly heroic, but what can they get?" Life is the most precious thing for a person, if life is gone, there is nothing, Zicheng, tell me, why is this? ”

Fang Hao was also silent for a long time, and it wasn't until the last trace of blush disappeared in the sky that he slowly spoke: "Perhaps, they think that there is something more important than life, right?" ”

Yue Pan asked, "Do you have it?" ”

Fang Hao replied, "Parents and wives." ”

Yue Yue nodded: "So, they died for their parents and wives?" San Lang also resolutely went on a northern expedition for the sake of his parents and wife? Even though you know you're going to lose, you're still going north? Is this because he wants to protect his parents and wife? ”

Fang Hao wanted to nod, but subconsciously felt that it was inappropriate to say this, did everyone die for their parents and wives? Are those big heroes really just dying for their parents and wives? The reason they died was to protect their parents and wives from others, and that was all?

"I don't know."

After being silent for a long time, Fang Hao slowly spoke, this, he really doesn't know, he doesn't know why someone can give up their lives to die, if it is just for their parents, wives and children, then everyone should have this kind of courage to die, and there will be no big mention in the history books that someone died for his parents and wife, if it is not just for his parents, wife and children, then for what? For what?

Fang Hao didn't know either.

That night, Yue Chu stayed awake all night, tossing and turning, he was still unable to determine what those people with lofty ideals died for, the great reason for the ideal in his heart was too empty, he needed a more specific, more direct reason, enough to convince him of the reason, but he couldn't think of it, he couldn't think of it anyway, why, there would be someone who could give their lives so generously, and never pretend to have their own lives in their hearts, didn't it mean that people were not for themselves, and the heavens and the earth would be destroyed?

I was wrong? Or is someone else wrong? Or are we all wrong?

Can anyone tell me why?

No one told Yue Tuo why this was, and he still didn't know, but time would continue to move forward, Zhang Ying's pace would not stop, Tong Guan's pace would not stop, and Yue Tuo's pace of suppressing bandits would not stop, and the imperial court would basically not have the time to pay attention to itself if it had to deal with two wars at the same time, and he needed to seize this excellent opportunity to train his troops on a large scale, train an elite and warlike army, and develop agriculture, commerce and industry in the base areas to ensure that there would be no mistakes in the material supply of the army in the future.

The scale of Yonghe Town is expanding day by day, from more than 3,000 households at the beginning to more than 30,000 households now, most of the people who are unwilling to continue to lick the blood and live a life have decided to obey the legal governance of Yue Tuo and live a normal life, so Yonghe Town is the center, slowly spreading to the surroundings, and the bell of the big bell without shooting is becoming more and more melodious, as if it is a fairy music, and has been supported by many people.

Therefore, Gongsun Sheng is indeed suitable for a series of positions in the household department, and positions related to civil affairs, and it is most suitable for a person like Gongsun Sheng who is well versed in the psychology of the people to do things.

Yue Tuo gradually expanded his actual control area, when the army was defeated, military control, not really control, only the production and life and rule are stable, can be regarded as real control, so it seems that most of the half a year, Yue Flip only really controlled half of Jizhou, the rest of the places are deterred by soldiers and horses, the implementation of military control, this is absolutely not long.

To truly build Jiqian Erzhou and Nan'an Army into their own military fortresses and become a paradise in troubled times in the chaos of the future, this requires not only troops, but also the ability to be self-sufficient, which requires a large number of farmers to reclaim wasteland, concentrate on farming, and stop doing some robbing houses.

At this juncture, something happened that made Yue Fang's heart a little relieved, Yue's mother came to Jizhou with most of the assets of the Yue family in Xiangzhou, which was equivalent to selling the Yue family industry in the entire north, and then the whole family moved to Jizhou together, the tenants in Xiangzhou were willing to come, and some were unwilling to come, and the Xiangzhou state government also asked Yue's about this matter, but Yue He had already made up his mind, so he didn't make much effort.

Yue's father is doing some tail sweeping work in Xiangzhou, and he will come over soon, Yue's mother came first, Yue Chuan was a little surprised, and even more surprised, he didn't expect that his father, who had been reluctant to leave his hometown, finally left his hometown and came to Jizhou, and the reason for this was that Yue's mother took out a letter from Zhang Ying.

Zhang Ying had a lot of strange omens, strange thoughts, and some strange dreams before the expedition, so he thought of what Yue Tuo said to him about the northern enemy going south, he was shocked, but the matter had come to this point, it was irreparable, and he couldn't believe that the Jurchens, who had always belonged to the Great Song Dynasty, dared to do such a thing, so he wrote to Yue Tuo on the one hand, and also to Yue He on the other hand.

He knew that Yue Tuo had always wanted to take his family to the south, but Yue's father had not agreed, he didn't know why Yue Tuo said this, but now he understood a little bit, Xiangzhou is in the land of Hebei, once he is defeated, whether it is a Liao or a Jurchen, under the gallop of a horse, he can arrive in Xiangzhou in three days!

Now he doesn't know whether his strange feeling is true or false, no matter what, things haven't come to that point, he carefully planned every step, every link, during this period, he wrote a letter to Yue He, asked someone to send it, and persuaded Yue He to move south to Jizhou according to Yue's words, so that it may play an immeasurable role in the future.

Yue Tuo's worries were relieved.

And the pace of fate has never stopped, little by little, little by little, closer and closer, closer and closer......
