Chapter 6: Die Faithfully for the Country!
The spring rain was murmuring, the branches and leaves were budding, the soil on the ground was slightly wet, and the army marched without dust.
Yecheng was broken, and the door of Zhao was opened!
Luo Yan led the last army of Zhao to appear, and the Wei army, which had just conquered Yecheng, was once again engaged in the battle.
When the Zhao army fell into a disadvantage and had to retreat and reorganize the army, everyone fell into the deepest despair.
"Jeongnam is dead."
The matter of the trial has reached Zhao Junzhong, and Luo Yan sighed: "Zhengnan is really the crown of my Zhao Guoshi!" ”
Everyone was immersed in the shock of the loss of Yecheng and the martyrdom of the trial, and no one spoke.
Hearing this, Koji Yi only felt ashamed and said: "The humble position should also die in Yecheng, if you rise up to resist, you may not be able to hold it, and you don't have to suffer such a shame now, trampled and humiliated by those pigs and dogs."
Thousands of years later, it may be the object of other people's character judgments, and it is really hateful to be a stepping stone for those pigs and dogs. ”
The pig-like people in Ko Yi's mouth refer to those generals in the Wei army, if he was in his heyday, he didn't pay attention to any of these people, but now he is subject to the defeat of Zhao State's national strength and has to retreat, which makes Koji Yi how acceptable.
In this world, there is always a success-only theory, and the losers are trampled into the dirt as if they are worthless.
The ministers of Zhao State are all strategists and generals in the world, but because of the failure of Zhao State, they will be unknown in the history books, who can accept this!
Everyone was a little concerned.
Seeing this, Luo Yan said slowly: "The historian writes with his pen, my Zhao Kingdom may not be recognized by future generations, but the intelligence of our people will definitely remain in the annals of history, and the historian will definitely give us a fair evaluation." ”
Hearing what Luo Yan said, the depression in everyone's hearts was slightly reduced, for these people, it was a terrible thing not to be able to go to the history books, and now they have a thought.
The historian will give a fair evaluation.
In today's era, the people of the world take the history books funded by Luo's as the official history, because the people of the world only believe that Luo's will write straightforwardly and will record those deeds that happened in history impartially.
The records of life that followed the king will also be selected by Rock, and the untrue parts will be removed, which is why there are almost no perfect people in the history books.
Looking at the ministers who were a little angry, Luo Yan said in a deep voice: "Everyone, let's discuss the next affairs, we have no chance to fail again." ”
……
In the Wei military camp.
After unexpectedly defeating the army of Zhao State, the entire Wei State camp breathed a sigh of relief, and as soon as Yecheng was broken, Zhao State was really poor in donkey skills.
However, Cao Cao did not completely relax, he always remembered that Liu Bei was on his way.
However, he has always been reluctant to admit that others are strong, so he deliberately smiled and said: "This Liu Xuande is really ridiculous."
He must have the intention of losing both the Wei and Zhao countries, and then sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
But I didn't know that Zhao Guo was vulnerable.
He wanted to do the act of encircling Wei to save Zhao.
But I don't know how time has changed, my Cao Wei is not the Wei State of the Warring States, and Yuan Zhao is not the Zhao State of the Warring States with mountains and rivers.
Now my Wei State is about to destroy the Zhao State.
Liu Xuande was waiting for Wei and Zhao to lose both, but the widow felt that he was waiting for death. ”
After speaking, he immediately burst into laughter, and all the generals in the camp burst out laughing, and the laughter was full of mockery.
After laughing at Liu Bei, Cao Cao was in a much happier mood, and then waved his hand and said: "But this Liu Xuande is indeed a personal masterpiece, and he can't be underestimated, our army is now overwhelmed, and there are more armies coming to help, and Chu and Zhao are not afraid to join forces."
The widow decided to lead 40,000 foot cavalry to confront Liu Xuande, and then ordered the general to destroy the Zhao State with 30,000 foot cavalry and take Handan directly.
Listen to the generals! ”
The generals of the Wei Kingdom stood up from the table almost at the same time and said in unison: "Wow! ”
Liu Bei, who had been waiting for a long time, learned the news of the fall of Yecheng and understood that it was time for him to attack.
Swords and guns are like forests, soldiers are like rain, although the Chu State in this battle, although limited to food and grass can only bring out 20,000 soldiers, but the generals and strategists in the country are almost pouring out.
For this battle, Liu Bei will drag down the footsteps of Wei even if he is desperate.
As long as Cao Cao is not successful, it will be his Liu Bei's great success!
……
The news of the fall of Yecheng spread to Handan, the capital of Zhao, which was another strategy set by Cao Cao and others to intimidate Yuan Tan, the king of Zhao, and the queen mother.
This trick works extremely well.
The Empress Dowager of King Zhao summoned King Zhao to her palace and asked with a face full of fear: "King Zhao, Yecheng has been lost, can my Zhao Kingdom still be able to defend it?" ”
Yuan Tan was also afraid in his heart, but he still forced himself to smile and said: "The Queen Mother doesn't have to worry, there is the Minister of the Kingdom, he has already led the army to go, and Liu Xuande, the King of Chu, will help me, Zhao Guo, will definitely be safe." ”
Yuan Tan's heart is weak, how could the Queen Mother not see it?
Her voice immediately sharpened, like a piece of glass scratching another piece of glass, and she shouted loudly, "Is Luo Yan a god?"
Yecheng is lost, and Handan is also lost!
We are all captives of Wei!
It's better to ......."
The queen mother's voice stopped abruptly, and Yuan Tan also thought about surrendering, but the ministers did not agree, so he could only give up, and now he heard what Liu said. Hurriedly asked, "What does the Queen Mother want to say?" ”
The Queen Mother glanced at Yuan Tan, but calmed down and said, "It's nothing, King Zhao should step back first." ”
Yuan Tan walked out of the hall, his face was a little ugly, he knew that the queen mother must have hidden something from herself.
In the Prime Minister's house.
When Zhen Mi got the news, she was drawing her eyebrows in the mirror, her hands trembled, and then she continued to draw, and when the makeup was combed, she looked at herself in the mirror, and gently brushed the corners of her eyes, "It's unspeakably expensive, where is it unspeakably expensive?"
It's like a joke.
I only hope that my husband will come back safely. ”
Zhao Guosheji, the building will fall, people's hearts will float, they really have their own thoughts!
……
On the Wei and Zhao front, in the face of the tidal offensive of the Wei army, the Zhao army finally resisted temporarily.
But Luo Yan and the others didn't have the slightest joy, and they only felt that they had been sinking downward.
Another attack by the Cao army was repulsed, Luo Yan wiped the blood on his face and asked in a deep voice, "How long has Cao Cao not appeared?" ”
Soon someone gave him the answer, "Half a month!"
In this half a month, the commander who presided over the Wei and Zhao wars was Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang.
Cao Cao is afraid that he will intercept Liu Bei, the king of Chu. ”
Everyone's hearts are sinking uncontrollably, the Wei army is divided into two ways, and the main force must be to fight against the Chu army.
But even so, they can still press their own side to fight, how can this not make them feel hopeless?
Even Cao Cao's son, Cao Ang, can lead a war without making a mistake, can King Zhao do it?
I'm afraid it can't be done, otherwise it should be Yuan Tan, the king of Zhao, who appears on the front line now, not Luo Yan, a courtier!
Even the next generation of Wei is stronger than Zhao Guo, how can this not make people feel that the will of heaven is so, how can it not make people feel hopeless?
Luo Yan saw everyone's expressions and said slowly: "Your colleagues are all people with great intelligence, before this war started, you must have known that with the national strength of my Zhao State, it would be difficult to win.
But why are you still willing to stand here?
General Koji, why are you standing here?
If you surrender to Cao Cao in Yecheng, you will be reused, why do you want to fight here with us now? ”
Lu Yi didn't expect Luo Yan to call his name, he stood up straight, and then raised his head and looked at everyone: "Who doesn't know why?"
It's just that the grace of the previous kings is not clear!
Zhen Zhengnan and I stayed in Yecheng, and the two of us have always been at odds, but neither of us ever thought of killing each other.
I don't like him, he's too arrogant and self-righteous.
But I like one of his words very much, born as a minister of the Yuan family, and died as a ghost of the Yuan family, that's all! ”
Koji Yi's words were simple, but they were deafening, and the people who could appear here were all people who were ready to die.
When the world looks at these scholars, they always regard them as the embodiment of their interests, and analyze all their actions with their identity.
But this kind of labeling is the most stupid.
Ancient and modern sages, both Chinese and foreign, have said that human beings are extremely complex.
Most of the wealthy people have a conservative attitude, which is called a class that has not betrayed the class, but there are still many individuals who have betrayed the interests of the class.
Without these people, who have the advanced productive forces and the direction of progress, the world would not have been able to make such rapid progress.
There is a thing in this world called an ideal.
But many people don't believe it, and only want to believe that it's all for the sake of profit.
Xun Yu chose to die when the Cao Wei Group was in full swing.
He gave up the position of prime minister of Wei at his fingertips, he gave up the glory of being listed alone in the history books, he gave up the future of the Xun family as the first family of Cao Wei, and he gave up a dynasty that he left to be traced.
How should this be explained?
If you use conspiracy theories to guess, what does he have to get to make up for the loss caused to the Xun family and himself by his death?
He had an ideal, and then he was willing to go to great lengths for it, willing to die.
Xun Yu died.
Xun Chen was also ready to die.
If these two people are alive, plus Xun You, how strong will the Xun clan be?
But that's not what they want.
If these three people are willing to surrender to Cao Wei, even if they can't be reused for a while, with the talents of the three people, they will eventually stand out, and it is not difficult to keep the wealth of the family.
But the judge did not hesitate to die, and came to the front line with the army, Tian Feng took care of the logistics grain and grass in Handan, and was one of the most important courtiers.
Looking at everyone's expressions of hatred, Luo Yan knew that there was nothing worth saying.
He drew his sword, the blade of which shone brightly, and said slowly: "In this case, anyone who wants to step into Handan must step over the corpses we are waiting for." ”
Everyone said in unison: "Yes! ”
……
When Cao Cao was still there, the Wei army and the Zhao army attacked for a few days, and Cao Cao said to the Wei ministers with emotion: "When I met the south of the trial before, I felt that there were such scholars in Hebei, which was really the blessing of the Yuan family. ”
The number of Zhao Guo's soldiers is at a disadvantage, and he has to defend a few places, whether it is a general or a minister, he is in a state of absolute few.
After the death of the judge, the last people in Zhao who had the talent to be the commander were Zhang He and Luo Yan, Luo Yan was in the middle of the command, and Lu Yi followed Luo Yan to sit in the Chinese army.
Zhang He and Xun Chen led a partial army, and he had the ability to govern the army, he has always been one of the military commanders of Zhao State, and he also led a partial army, and the three armies each occupied the terrain and helped each other.
Cao Ang sent Wei generals to storm the camp, and the Wei army was like a tide, and arrows were sprinkled like a real rain of arrows.
Among the three armies, Xun Chen's army was weak, and after Guo Jia learned about it, he immediately attacked Xun Chen's department.
Frustrated and led the army to come to the aid and harassed the Wei army, but he didn't know Guo Jia's strategy.
It turned out that the army that stormed Xun Chen was just a feint, and at the beginning all the Wei army had to do was to encircle the point and send reinforcements, and what they wanted to catch was Fu Zhu and Luo Yan who came to help.
There were too many Wei troops, and when the flags were waving, it was impossible for Fu Zhi to know how many there were.
He didn't dare to bet either.
He had no choice but to fight, so he fell into Guo Jia's arms, and Xu Chu, who Cao Cao deliberately left to Cao Ang, led the army to occupy the camp of Fu Zhi and cut off the back road of Fu Zhu.
There was the Wei army in front, and the Wei army in the back.
In the distance, there was also a large army fighting, and from a distance, it was the Luo Yan army that was trying to rush forward, but was blocked by the Wei army.
The Xun Chen army, which was being stormed, was blocked in the camp and could not get out.
The Wei army that came like a tide rushed forward in formation, countless arrows were thrown down, and I don't know how many Zhao soldiers fell in the rain of arrows, and more people fled with a bang.
Many of these soldiers were not experienced in battle, and in the face of such a defeat, scattering and fleeing was the only result.
But there were hundreds of people around him, all of them were the real elites of the Zhao Kingdom, some of them were holding shields, some were holding spears, some were carrying bows and arrows, and some were wearing armor.
In the sound of drums, it is constantly dealing with the surging Wei army and the onslaught of the rout.
As time passed, the number of Zhao troops became smaller and smaller, and the number of Wei troops surrounding them increased.
Suddenly, a loud shout came from the Wei army, "Frustrated, are you willing to surrender?"
If you are willing to surrender, the court will treat each other with courtesy, high-ranking officials and lords, and enjoy endless enjoyment. ”
Immediately afterwards, all the soldiers shouted in unison and asked, "Frustrated, do you surrender?!" ”
Fu Zhu's face turned cold, and he also said loudly: "Fu Zhu will never surrender and die." ”
Cao Ang is very patient, Fu Zhu is a great talent, and he is also one of the leaders of the Hebei Shi clan, and he will capture Zhao in the future.
In particular, Cao Ang knew that his father wanted to use Yecheng as the capital of Wei, so as to completely separate his political influence from the Han Emperor.
After Fu Zhu and others entered the Wei State, they could also balance the Yingchuan Shi clan, which was expanding in strength, and they could kill many birds with one stone.
He asked questions again while continuing to attack, but the answer he gave was still not to surrender, and the resistance became more and more fierce.
It was only at this time that Cao Ang realized that what he said was true, he really had to resist to the end and never surrender, which made Cao Ang suddenly change color.
In order to recruit frustration, he directly asked the archers to stop shooting arrows, and only made the armor soldiers come forward.
But now the ending made Cao Ang's face change and change, and he was a little entangled for a while, a scout rode his horse and reported to Cao Ang that Luo Yan and the others were rushing too fiercely and needed the support of the Chinese army.
Cao Ang suddenly made up his mind, closed his eyes, and then waved his hand directly: "Release the arrows, kill them all, don't take them prisoner!" ”
As soon as he gave an order, not only the archers, but also the heavy crossbows appeared in front of everyone after the shield soldiers, and in an instant, the arrows rained down, and the heavy crossbow arrows penetrated Zhao Jun's body, and some were even directly strung together.
Gurgling blood poured out and soaked the earth.
The greatest thing about man is wisdom, and human wisdom is always reflected in war, because the strongest talent of human beings is to kill their own kind, and countless weapons that are more conducive to killing people have been invented.
The bright life was so fragile at this moment, and the frustrated mind was already extremely strong, and as the soldiers who stood in front of him fell, the arrows swarmed in.
Frustrated, his pupils widened suddenly.
The breath of death filled his mind almost instantly.
His body was thrown high into the air, and then it was heavily pierced to the ground, followed by countless arrows.
There were three arrows stuck in his face, and there were more than ten arrows in his chest and abdomen, and the whole person could hardly see what he had been.
Regret it?
Frustrated with the fact that he did not regret it.
He's so smart, he can even see some future, he doesn't want to face that future, and it might be a good thing to die now.
His world was plunged into darkness.
Looking at the land full of arrows, there could no longer be any living people, Cao Ang sighed and said, "Why bother?
Zhongda, you say.
What is more important in this world than being alive? ”
Sima Yiyi said solemnly: "In the hearts of us scholars, perhaps the teachings of the sages are more important.
If the subordinate was in a frustrated position, he might have done the same. ”
Cao Ang was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded and said, "Yes, Fu Zhu is a righteous man, and these Zhao soldiers are all righteous soldiers."
As my father said, there are so many righteous people in Hebei.
If it weren't for the heavens not protecting the Yuan family, now I, the Cao family, would be able to boast here?
Although he is an enemy, he can't help but respect him for such loyalty.
They were buried, and the book 'Hebei was frustrated with the tomb of five hundred righteous people'.
The rest of you, come with me to meet Gongzi Yan!
Let's see who this Luo's son is? ”
When Luo Yan heard the shouting and killing sound of the frustrated place stopping, he knew that it was too late, his face was gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "Gonghe is afraid that he has already been martyred." ”
After the death of the self-trial match, another real high-level of Zhao Guo died.
That's frustrating, when Luo Yan didn't come to Hebei, he was the second-in-command of Hebei, from Yuan Shao or Jizhou Assassin History, he just didn't drive, dominated the entire Hebei, and was in charge of Hebei's military power and political power, only Xun Chen could compete with one or two.
After Luo Yan entered Hebei, the status of Fu Zhu declined, but it was not big, Yuan Shao still let Fu Zhu grasp a considerable amount of military power, and even faintly above the trial.
His death is basically equivalent to the death of Xiahou in Cao Cao's camp and the death of Guan Yu in Liu Bei's camp.
The shock to the people of Zhao State is not small.
Cao Ang led the army forward and asked Luo Yan loudly: "Gongzi Yan, I am unwilling to surrender, and I have already been awarded the head, do you want to follow in his footsteps?"
If you are willing to surrender, my Wei State has its own position as the Minister of State for you. ”
Luo Yan replied proudly: "Have you ever heard of the surrendered Luo's son?
Judging Zhengnan and Fu Gong and dying for the country, and dying as he deserved, would Luo's son surrender for the so-called glory and wealth because he was greedy for life and afraid of death?
Since Fu Gong and he is dead, then our army will form a formation here, and let you attack, I, Luo Yan, want to see if you can break through my army formation. ”
Luo Yan thought that Cao Ang would continue to fight back, but when he saw a slightly strange smile on Cao Ang's face, he only heard him say leisurely: "Gongziyan, you are a talented person.
If I lead an army to attack, the victory will naturally be mine, but in the end, I am afraid that what I will get is a corpse.
That's something I don't want to do.
This is something that the Father does not want to see.
The father hoped that the prince could assist him, or assist the next generation of King Wei.
There are shortcomings in this world.
In other words, people have more important things, and for more important things, they can give up some unimportant things, and I am looking forward to that day. ”
Cao Ang said this like an ultimate riddler, making people wonder what he wanted to say.
Luo Yan felt a chill in her heart, Cao Ang's words expressed a meaning, that is, Cao Cao had already set his eyes on him, and even made an unknown amount of preparation for this.
If this is the case, then how much preparation did Cao Cao make, and what did he want to do?
Cao Cao, if it weren't for the moral bottom line in this world that constrained him, if it wasn't for the lessons of the past that made him restrained, if it weren't for the fact that Xun Yu had been persuading him before.
He could have done anything.
You must know that there is a violent word in the artifact's evaluation of Cao Cao, which may not be easy to appear, and you must know that even border warriors like Gongsun Zan and Lu Bu do not have violent words.
Cao Cao is quite unscrupulous, and now Xun Yu, the only one who restricts him, is still dead, and Luo Yan is no exception to what he does.
After Cao Ang finished speaking, he retreated to the army, he stood in the middle of the army, waved his hand gently, and then the army pressed, even if Cao Cao had already prepared, but Cao Ang naturally would not give up attacking Luo Yan.
Maybe he didn't wait for Cao Cao to launch a second move, so he captured Luo Yan first?
And then with a two-pronged approach, he will naturally be able to persuade Luo Yan to surrender.
Luo Yan was full of doubts, he didn't know what means Cao Cao could use to force himself to surrender, Luo's family didn't matter to the two masters, this was the bottom line, no matter what kind of coercion and temptation, it was useless for him.
"Could it be that something will happen to Handan? Isn't this the case since ancient times, if you can't open a breakthrough from yourself, then open a breakthrough from the people around you. ”
Others are equally strange, and someone unconsciously said a word.
Luo Yan suddenly became excited.
In this era, there was a special kind of city inhabited by the families of the soldiers who went out to prevent the soldiers from betraying, such as Cao Cao's Wei army, which was basically the case.
This method can indeed ensure the combat effectiveness and loyalty of the soldiers, but the disadvantage is that once the city changes hands, the army will be defeated, and all the families of the soldiers are in the hands of the other party, so what kind of battle is there to fight?
Even if it is modern nationalism, it is necessary to use the defense of the family to boost morale, and the protection of the family and the motherland to boost the will to fight, and the importance of the family can be imagined.
Luo Yan's lord, wife and children are all in Handan, if there is an accident in Handan, then he is a rootless person, so what should he do?
……
Handan.
"You thieves, dare to enter the palace with a sword!"
"Poof!"
The head flew up, and then fell to the ground, dead and unsightly.
In the palace of King Zhao!
There was blood everywhere, Yuan Tan looked at the Queen Mother and Yuan Shang in front of him angrily, and shouted loudly: "You are killing the king!" ”
The Queen Mother said coldly: "What kind of murder? Who said they were going to kill you?
I am the Queen Mother of King Zhao, abolish your throne, this is the power given to me by the ancestral family law, the country of Zhao has decayed to such a point in your hands, you are not qualified to be the king of Zhao. ”
For the throne?
Yuan Tan thought it was too ridiculous.
He laughed straight, and laughed loudly, but the laughter was full of mocking looks: "Now that the Zhao Kingdom is about to die, you still want the throne, are you so eager to be the king of the dead country?" ”
The Queen Mother said with disgust: "The position of King Zhao is naturally not important, if the first king is still alive, if it is the original position of King Zhao, it will naturally be fragrant."
Current?
Hum!
When Shang'er became the king of Zhao, he immediately surrendered to Kaicheng of Wei, and now he is so stubborn and stubborn, what is the end except death?
Do you think that I alone can kill this place with a female stream?
If it weren't for your unwillingness to surrender, I wouldn't be standing here now, and there wouldn't be so many people supporting Shang'er. ”
Yuan Tan's stupid brain, only then did he react, so it was, so it was.
It turned out that the prime minister was a minority in the Zhao Kingdom, and most of them were unwilling to follow the Yuan ship to continue walking.
Worried about the fate of a country ruined and ruined, he wanted to surrender directly to save a piece of wealth.
Seeing that it is becoming more and more urgent, even if they are charged with killing the king, they will take action.
If the Queen Mother can't succeed, I'm afraid those people will have to do it themselves.
Yuan Tan suddenly realized one thing, and asked in a cold voice: "Queen Mother, where did Tian Fengyuan Hao go?" ”
Yuan Shang said proudly: "He is unwilling to surrender to me, and he has spoken filthy words, and he has been killed by me in front of the palace." ”
As he spoke, he threw the cloth bag he was holding in his hand directly, and laughed loudly: "This is Tian Feng's old thief." ”
Tian Feng's unsightly head rolled down at Yuan Tan's feet, staring straight at Yuan Tan, making him shiver, he could think of how angry Tian Feng, who had always been upright, should be angry in the face of the coup queen mother and Yuan Shang, he must have drunk the two of them angrily, and then was killed.
Yuan Tan felt that he couldn't think about it anymore, he hugged Tian Feng's head in his arms with tears, and then shouted at everyone: "Do you want to bear the charge of killing the monarch in the history books?"
Do you want to leave a stench in the history books for 10,000 years?
If you don't want to bear such a charge, then follow the widow's order and kill Yuan Shang, a thief.
The widows are willing to obey your will, and the widows are willing to surrender to Cao Cao.
Kill Yuan Shang and avenge Tian Qing!
You're going to get what you want most! ”
As soon as Yuan Tan's words came out, the Queen Mother and Yuan Shang's faces suddenly changed greatly, and the other people in the palace turned bright, who is willing to bear the charge of killing the king!
That will make the family at least tens or hundreds of years unable to turn over!
Yuan Tan is willing to surrender, then the Queen Mother and Yuan Shang are useless!
"What are you going to do?"
The shrill voice of the Queen Mother sounded, and then blood splattered, and Yuan Shang's head flew up.
