Chapter 557: On the banks of the Miluo River
"Wu Gexi wearing rhino armor, and the car is wrong and short-handed.
The sun covers the enemy like a cloud, and the arrows and fallen soldiers compete for the first.
Ling Yu staggered for the rest of his life, and his left side was injured and his right blade was injured.
The haze is two rounds and four horses, and the jade is beating the drum.
The days are full of power and anger, and they are all killed and abandoned in the wilderness.
Can't get in and out, and the plains are far away.
With a long sword, he carried the Qin bow, and his head was not punished.
Cheng is both brave and martial, and he is strong and invincible.
The body is dead, the spirit is the spirit, and the soul is resolute. ”
Liu Ze stood on the bank of the Miluo River, in the early winter, the wind was blowing strongly, the grass was withering, and the trees were bleak, and he chanted Qu Yuan's "National Martyrdom" in his mouth, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. Qu Yuan's position in Liu Ze's mind, that is extremely lofty, worried about the country and the people, selfless and fearless, in the folk festivals, only the May Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate a historical figure, it can be seen how great Qu Yuan's immortal image is in the minds of the people. When Liu Ze came to Miluo River, Qu Yuan's suicide place by throwing himself into the river, he naturally had to go to the riverside to pay his respects.
Pan Feng, who was accompanying him, saw that it was getting late, so he persuaded Liu Zedao: "Lord, it's getting late, and this place is not far from the enemy's camp, for the sake of safety, the lord should return early." ”
Liu Ze was still unsatisfied, and pointed to the Miluo River and said: "Ziyi, do you know who was buried in this Miluo River more than 400 years ago?" ”
Pan Feng shook his head and said: "This subordinate doesn't know, four hundred years ago, wasn't it the Warring States Period of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, didn't you feel that there was a big man who died in this river, and it was worth the lord's concern for this?" Although Pan Feng also reads and writes, he is quite literate. However, little is known about historical allusions, and it is naturally not clear who died in this Miluo River.
Liu Ze didn't have a strange expression, Pan Feng didn't know where Qu Yuan died, and he was not surprised at all, but said: "More than 400 years ago, Qin General Bai Qi attacked Yingdu, Qu Yuan was angry about the national disaster, but he was unable to return to the sky, and finally chose to commit suicide in the Miluo River, so as to die a clear will. The day of his death was the fifth day of the fifth month. In order to commemorate him, the descendants made zongzi and raced dragon boats in the Dragon Boat Festival. ”
Pan Feng suddenly realized and said: "It turns out that there is such a saying in the Dragon Boat Festival, isn't this Qu Yuan Qu Zhengzhi who wrote Lisao and Nine Songs?" ”
Liu Ze said: "Exactly." its textual covenant. It's a trivial rhetoric. His ambition is pure, his deeds are honest, and such a character is indeed worthy of admiration by future generations. Although Qu Yuan was worried about the country and the people, but his talent was not met, and his ambitions and ideals finally turned into nothing, and in despair, he committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, although he kept his innocent body, but it did nothing to help the suffering of the people of Chu. In the troubled times, what is really needed is to be the mainstay of standing up for the country and the people, turning the tide and saving the people from fire and water, so that he can be a true husband! ”
While talking, he heard a sudden sound of horses' hooves by the river, Pan Feng looked up, under the white moonlight, a fast horse galloped forward, Pan Feng secretly shouted that it was not good, the fast horse that appeared in this direction could not be the cavalry of his own camp, it must be the enemy's rangers. This time, Liu Ze went out of the camp and did not bring a large group of personal guards to escort him, only Pan Feng brought dozens of Jinying personal guards, Pan Feng immediately pulled his sword in his hand, and shouted: "There is an enemy attack, protect the lord!" ”
Jinying's personal guards were well-trained, and they were not panicked in an emergency, and they all pulled knives in their hands to protect Liu Ze's body. But seeing the bowstring in front of him, one after another feather arrows shot like beads, fast and sharp, hitting the Jinying guards who were protecting Liu Ze in front of him, and the thick armor was like brittle paper, which could not play any protective role at all, and was directly pierced by the feather arrows.
Pan Feng's face changed suddenly, the armor worn by the Jin Yingwei was the most sophisticated chain armor in the Jing army, three hundred steps away, if you want to shoot through these armors, you have to use at least a bow with more than four stone power, just by looking at the situation of these armors being pierced, you can imagine what a terrifying figure the enemy shooter is.
"Quickly protect the lord and evacuate!" Pan Feng shouted, protecting Liu Ze's safety is the top priority of the Jinying Guard, the other party has such a strong archer, no matter how strong the Jinying Guard's combat power is, it is impossible to resist, and it can only protect Liu Ze and retreat first.
Liu Ze said calmly: "The person who can have such a bow power must be Huang Zhong in the future, just right, I want to see this Huang Zhong!" ”
Pan Feng was so anxious that he stomped his feet, at this time, the enemy's fast horse had galloped to the front, as the first general, his beard was gray, it was Huang Zhong, he seemed to have heard Liu Ze's words, he sneered: "Your Excellency must be Liu Ze, the king of Jing, a certain is Huang Zhong, as you wish, why not see it!" ”
Huang Zhong was originally patrolling the riverside, and when he heard the report from Tanma that Liu Ze had only brought a few guards to the riverside, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately crossed the river and killed him on the north bank, wanting to capture Liu Ze. The Miluo River was not too wide, Huang Zhong crossed the river by boat, the momentum was extremely fast, Huang Zhong held a five-stone bow, the people did not arrive, the arrow came first, connected with a few arrows, the momentum was very fast, knocked down a few guards in front of Liu Ze, changed the bow and held the knife, and wanted to take Liu Ze's life.
Huang Zhong just pounced, stabbed out of the stab, white horse and silver spear, it was Changshan Zhao Yun, Liu Ze went to the riverside to watch, how Zhao Yun could put his mind at ease, followed Liu Ze all the way, saw that the situation was critical, quickly killed the horse, intercepted Huang Zhong, and shouted: "Hugh hurt my lord!" ”
Riding like lightning, the gun is like Bai Lian, Zhao Yun stabbed Huang Zhong with a shot.
Huang Zhong was originally determined to be in Liu Ze, but he killed Zhao Yun in the oblique stab, so that he had to give up attacking Liu Ze, turned around and swung his knife to engage Zhao Yun, you come and go, the two fought for seventy or eighty rounds in a row, regardless of Xuan. Pan Feng and the others who were watching the battle next to him were dumbfounded, Zhao Yun was in the Jing Army, that was a famous first-class general, his military achievements were extraordinary, and there were few opponents in the world, he couldn't imagine that in this nameless place in Changsha, he could encounter such a brave opponent, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
Liu Ze was not the slightest surprised, and nodded secretly, Huang Zhong is really old and strong, and he is not worthy of the reputation of the Five Tiger Generals.
While speaking, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong have been fighting more than 100 times in a row, and it is still difficult to distinguish between the superior and inferior, such a fierce battle, how not to alarm the Jingjun camp a few miles away, the sentry horse is in a hurry to report in the camp, Jia Xu, Zhuge Liang, Xu Rong and others were shocked when they heard that Liu Ze was attacked, and immediately lit up the men and horses and killed them by the river.
Huang Zhong heard the sound of killing in the north, the fire was as bright as day, and sighed secretly, knowing that today's opportunity was gone, and if he wanted to succeed again, he had to abandon Zhao Yun, look at the river and retreat, and board the boat to return to the south bank.
Xu Rong led the army to chase to the riverside at this time, saw Huang Zhong boarding the boat, and ordered all the troops to fire arrows in unison, shooting Huang Zhong and his people into hedgehogs. (To be continued......)
