Chapter 33: Exploring the Horse, Evidence, Head
Dashou and the generals all wanted to surrender, but they could not obey, so that the two of them went out of the city to kill them, but the color of the gang remained the same, and they did not say a word, and died with a smile. But Gang died, and his corpse was eaten by the hungry in the city
The night was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and there was not a single bird in the wilderness. There were two occasional sounds, but it was the owl that came out of the day and night.
In such a dark night, there was a silent group of soldiers silently pushing one carriage after another slowly towards the south.
Torches are lit from the front of the line to the back of the line, like a fire dragon in the night, illuminating the way for the souls to return home.
"The bull-headed god, the horse-faced god, the big and small gods go around on both sides, and there is no way to get in the way of accepting the treasure money. Don't get in the way, don't get in the way..."
The choked Changping cavity was full of sadness. With every thought, the paper money in his hand swayed out.
Buying money for the road, buying the money for the road, so that the soul of the brother can return home.
"Second child, after the chicken station, the front is to Jinzhou, so stay in the car, don't ask the black and white impermanence to take it. The old lady in the family can wait to see you at the last glance. ”
"The baby is only two years old, I'm afraid that even my father won't scream, when you leave home, you are very reluctant, three steps and a turn, tears and in the eyes, look at it is distressing. Alas, which one of the fathers doesn't love the baby and doesn't want the baby. Brother Zhi Lu said you want to! In the past, I didn't hear you mention it less, everyone made fun of you, and you weren't annoyed, good person. Who would have thought that this would be a loss of life. If you lose it, you will lose it, the guards are merciful, and there are brothers in your heart, isn't this going to send you home, and I can let you see the child again......"
"Brother, rest assured, my lord is benevolent and righteous, I will not let your blind old lady have no one to take care of her, only pity your daughter-in-law, who will be a widow at a young age..."
The tears have dried, the voice has been hoarse, the dead will die after all, and the living will live.
Those who live are more painful and sad than those who die.
Go home, go home...
Countless shouts from the bottom of their hearts guided these men to move forward step by step.
………
Infected by the sorrow of the upper and lower parts of Songshan, everyone in the five hundred Liaodong cavalry was sad. During the day, they witnessed the bloody battle between the Songshan army and Jiannu, and admired these men who would rather die than retreat. Now, they are even more excited about Shi Dayong's righteous act of transporting corpses for thousands of miles, and they believe that what this garrison lord said to them during the day will definitely come true!
There was no order, and the Liaodong cavalry were all dumbfounded, although the war horses under the seats were a little impatient, they still carefully controlled the speed of the horses, and no one dared to take a step past the carriages that transported the corpses.
The dead are great, no matter how they pride themselves on being good at fighting iron horses, how empty-eyed they are, now, they must follow silently.
Xia Desheng and Li Yizhong have been following behind Shi Dayong, and along the way, Shi Dayong briefly asked about their situation, knowing that these two people were both from Zu Dashou's family, and he couldn't help but be wary of the two of them, afraid that these two people were Zu Dashou's eyeliner under his subordinates.
But along the way, watching the behavior of the two and listening to the conversation between the two, they all admired their behavior of fighting bloodily during the day, and their words were very respectful, and they did not have the arrogance of the people who were the general soldiers of the forward. and Huang An, Shao Wu and other Songshan generals were also very polite. Judging from the surface alone, Shi Dayong still can't tell whether these two people have received any instructions from Zu Dashou, and they want to embarrass themselves or secretly spy on themselves.
After passing the chicken station, Shi Dayong suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly, he is just a small guard, even if Zu Dashou's promise comes true, he is just a third-grade general. It is said to be the third product, but looking at Liaodong, this general is also everywhere. Not to mention the great Ming Wen noble and martial arts, in the eyes of those civil officials, he is not even as good as a seven-grade county order. I am afraid that a random civil official of five or six grades will dare to kill himself without authorization, just like Yuan Chonghuan dared to kill a lieutenant colonel in the army when he was just a fourth-grade Ning Qiandao.
Since he is and will be an insignificant little role now and in the future, why do you have to deceive yourself and others, put gold on your face, wishful thinking that the ancestor is not at ease with herself, and put such a big capital to monitor herself?
The price is too high. Five hundred cavalry, but a decisive force, if placed in the pass, that is the strength of the general army. That is, his ancestor is rich and wealthy, and if he is another general, which one will be so bold to cut a piece of meat for himself.
Or Zu Dashou is not so unbearable as he thinks, or he has a heroic heart of cherishing heroes, or he feels guilty about his behavior of not saving himself, so he decided to support himself.
Don't look at today's people with the mentality of later generations, let alone think that you are a big person, what great ability you have, and think that everyone who is better to you has different plans for you.
Be a man and be relieved. After surviving such a bloody battle, what can't be let go of, what can't be thought of.
You want people to want you, but you don't know that you also want to want people.
One step at a time, perhaps the road ahead is smooth and uncertain.
…………
After traveling another seven or eight miles, the cavalry battalion that led the way at the front galloped over the chief grandson Youjin and asked Shi Dayong: "My lord, the brothers have rushed all the way, do you want to stop and let everyone rest and go again?" ”
From the departure of Daling River to the present, except for a short time to make a meal at the Jiming Station, the team has not stopped at all, and it needs to take a break. Besides, now the pine mountain is immersed in grief, and the grief is turned into the strength to move forward, although this force can temporarily forget about fatigue, but if it is not properly relieved, it is easy to bring physical and psychological distress to people.
Zhang Chi has a reason, Shi Dayong understands, just like when he gambles money, he doesn't bet all the money. This place is also close to Jinzhou, and it can't be delayed after resting for a while. Thinking of this, Shi Dayong nodded and said, "It's okay, pass the order down, and the whole army will rest." ”
"Yes, sir!"
Sun Youjin answered on the horse, and cautiously ran towards the front by the light of the torch, whispering the rest order as he ran.
After hearing the order, the convoy slowly stopped, and the soldiers leaned on the carriage and said nothing, or looked at the darkness in the distance in a daze, or looked at their comrades in the carriage in a daze.
When the five hundred cavalry went out of the city, they brought their own dry rations, which they all took out and ate. Li Yizhong asked people to take some and send them to the Songshan Army, some people took them, but some people shook their heads and didn't take them, as if they still had prejudices against the soldiers and horses in Liaodong, and even had no good impression of the five hundred cavalry that had been classified as the Songshan Army.
Seeing this, Shi Dayong had no choice but to hope that time would dilute the resentment of his subordinates against the Liaodong soldiers. After all, it was Zu Dashou who gave the order, and it was Zu Dashou who refused to go out of the city to rescue.
There is a head for grievances, there is a debtor, and if you really want to settle accounts, you should also find Zu Dashou.
However, the Liaodong generals in Dalinghe City are not all as cold-blooded as Zu Dashou, the deputy generals He Kegang, Zhang Cunren and the guerrilla Gao Guanghui are not bad, they are worth befriending, listen to their meaning, and they also have opinions on Zu Dashou not saving him when he sees death.
Well? What a gang!
Shi Dayong suddenly shuddered, and his face instantly became ugly, because he remembered - who was that He Kegang!
Isn't he He Kegang who was ordered by Zu Dashou to cut off his head in front of tens of thousands of Jin troops under Dalinghe City because he opposed Zu Dashou's surrender!
Isn't he the loyal minister He Kegang who smiled to death and didn't say a word!
Strong, what a gang!
………
Shi Dayong respected the righteous and loyal ministers the most, and the tragedy of He Kegang's refusal to surrender and was killed made his heart ache.
In order to ensure that the loyal ministers did not die in vain, Shi Dayong decided to report to the governor Qiu He Jiali Chen Houjin after returning to Jinzhou no matter what, and the fact that the army of Houjin was about to arrive, and tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Dalinghe City would be destroyed by the enemy.
No matter what method is used, He Kegang must be saved!
Shi Dayong secretly made up his mind, and kept thinking about how to use the best and most credible words to persuade Qiu Hejia to order Zu Dashou to withdraw immediately.
Even if it makes your road to promotion more difficult and bumpy, you must do your best.
As he was thinking, he heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of him.
Hearing the sound of hooves, the dozens of brothers of the cavalry battalion who were leading the way in front of the team immediately threw away the dry food in their hands, turned over and straddled their horses, drew their knives in their hands, and looked nervously at the dark front.
The sound of hooves got closer and closer, and after seeing the fire that suddenly appeared in front of me, the sound of hooves stopped abruptly, and in the darkness, someone was heard asking, "Who is in front?" But the general subordinates of the striker? ”
"We are the Matsuyama Army." Sun Youjin shouted on the horse, waved his hand and motioned his subordinates to put down their knives, the person who came from the direction of Jinzhou would definitely not be a Tartar.
"Matsuyama Army?"
Hearing Sun Youjin's answer, someone on the other side was exclaiming, and there was a burst of whispering, obviously not believing that they were really Songshan Jun. After a while, I heard someone shouting: "Tanmalai report, your Songshan army has been surrounded by Jiannu, how can you appear here?" Aren't you all building slaves and pretending to be overseas Chinese, and you want to defraud Jinzhou City? ”
As soon as these words came out, Sun Youjin immediately became angry, and scolded him: "Let your mother's bullshit, Lao Tzu and Tartar almost lost their lives, and yesterday it became a Tartar disguise in your mouth!" Your grandmother, open your eyes wide, these carriages are full of Lao Tzu's brothers! ”
There was silence on the other side, as if they were discussing something, and soon, I heard the person who had asked him call again: "Brother opposite, whether you are Matsuyama's brother or not is difficult for us to identify for a while, you also know that Jiannu is scheming, and he likes to find someone to disguise himself and sneak into the city as an internal response, and then open the city gate to let their army in, so for the sake of safety, it is best for you to show evidence that you are the Matsuyama army, otherwise, we will go back to the city to show the governor that you are Jiannu in disguise." ”
Hearing this, Sun Youjin jumped like thunder: "Lao Tzu is living well, this is the evidence, what the hell do you want?" Dalinghe City is still in the hands of our army, if we are really Tartars in disguise, how can we run here from under their noses? You fucking rambling again, Lao Tzu led the troops to rush you dog. Mother-raised! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, his body was pulled by someone, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was the guard.
After asking Sun Youjin not to shout, Shi Dayong raised his voice and said to the other side: "I am Songshan garrison Shi Dayong, if you want evidence, I will give you evidence, and then!" As he spoke, he threw an object against him.
It's dark and not in the middle of winter, and no one knows what Shi Dayong threw out.
On the other side, there was an exclamation: "Human head, human head, braided hair, human head of Jiannu!"
