Chapter 366: The Warrior
At the gate of the city, Gao Weimu was on the horse, subconsciously pinched the horsewhip in his hand tightly, and opened his mouth several times but didn't know how to say it......
At this time, the sunlight deflected, passed over the tower, and illuminated the group, but everyone did not feel a trace of warmth.
Everyone's mentality didn't turn around for a long time, and even the emperor's head buzzed.
Dazai is dead......
Suddenly dead?
How so? That's Duan Shao, that's Duan Dazai, who has turned the sky several times with his own strength! Didn't you say before that you can still fight if you are good...... Why is it suddenly gone?
Obviously, this news made the emperor's mentality explode for a while, and he ignored how the courtiers around him mourned, and sat on the back of the horse in a daze, only to feel that the blood was frozen, and after a while, he said in a wooden voice:
"How so? Wasn't Dazai okay a few days ago? …… I've heard people say that his body is still quite strong, why is he suddenly gone?! ”
Speaking of the back, it is already undisguised anger, and I don't know who to be angry at. Duan Shao's son, Duan Decao, knelt down and wept:
"My father was not very good a few days ago, and the war was gradually tightened, Yang Jian and Zhao Zhongqing pressed step by step, refusing to give up, my father had no choice but to go to the city tower to sit in town, the most critical time, the Zhou army besieged for three days and nights, and my father did not go down to the city tower for three days and nights."
"In my father's early years, he fought in the north and south, and he was injured and sick, how could he stand such a toss day and night? …… Last night, the Zhou army withdrew, and my father ordered someone to pursue and test, suspecting that the Zhou army was cheating, so he sat in the city all night. ”
After that, Duan Decao cried bitterly and remorsefully again.
Cushman & Wakefield shoved a breath of cold air into his lungs, then slowly exhaled it.
I don't know when, it snowed again in the sky, wisps of it, accompanied by the cold wind, so cold that the bone marrow stinged...... This thief really turned his face when he said that he would turn his face, first giving him a big victory, and then taking away the cadres he relied on the most!
Gao Wei looked up at the sky, and the iron blue sky dome was very similar to his face at this time.
"Take me to see Dazai." Just a moment, the emperor's heavy and indifferent voice sounded, as the king of a country, and at the critical moment of the destruction of Zhou, he had to put away all his personal feelings and examine the death of this important minister with an indifferent and ruthless eye.
Duan Shao is dead, will it change the situation? Will it have any impact on the morale of the military? And so on and so forth.
There are so many things to consider......
The emperor dispersed all his entourage, leaving only Duan Decao alone to accompany him, walked through the dilapidated city gates, walked through the rugged city roads, and climbed to the city tower in silence, Duan Decao said, Duan Shao's coffin was still parked there.
Huayin City is high, when the Western Wei Dynasty, Wang Sizheng repaired several times to fight against the Eastern Wei Dynasty, which was extremely easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even so, along the way, Gao Wei has seen many traces of the tragedy after the war, the city wall is scarred, and the bones under the city wall are everywhere...... A group of extremely tired soldiers leaned against the base of the wall, covered with scars on their faces, and when they saw the emperor coming up, they hurriedly knelt on one knee and did not dare to raise their heads.
"Everyone, get up, don't be formal, it's hard work, after this battle is over, I will definitely reward you heavily."
The Emperor raised his hand to signal them to flatten, and then there was no more to talk to, and then walked forward in silence.
Duan Decao followed him silently, his heart was heavy, not only because of his father's sudden death, but also partly because of the emperor's reaction at this time...... No matter from that point of view, in the face of the death of such an important minister as Duan Shao, the emperor's reaction at this time was too calm, calm and almost cold, making people unsure of what he was thinking.
Father said that His Majesty would be the most promising of the three generations of kings of the Gao family, but a successful king must dig out all emotions? No matter what, my father has been loyal to Daqi all his life, and he can't even get a tear from His Majesty?
Even though Your Majesty is like a god, isn't his heart fleshy?
No matter what, this made Duan Decao feel a little uncomfortable in his heart...... The two of them remained silent one after the other, until they saw Duan Shao's coffin, and then they stopped.
"Your Majesty......" Duan Decao was just about to speak, Gao Wei waved his hand weakly, stepped forward a few more steps, and just stopped in front of the coffin, he pressed his hand on it, as if he wanted to push it away and take a final look, but finally retracted his hand: "What did Dazai say in the end?" ”
Duan Decao cautiously observed the expression on the emperor's side face, and said: "Father said that if you want to attack Chang'an, you must advance in two ways, all the way from Weinan to attack, and all the way to Panyi through Liyang and Jingyang, so that he can't take care of each other before he can perform." ”
"At that time, are you still thinking about state affairs?" A faint pain flashed in Gao Wei's eyes, and his brows furrowed.
Duan Decao hung his head and wept again:
“…… Originally, my father would not have done this, but last night Zhou Jun escaped and deliberately sounded the drum to make a posture of battle.
When my father heard the sound of the drums of the Zhou army, he thought that the Zhou army was going to send troops to come, so he ordered the headquarters to hold on, and Liu Fang and others acted separately, ordering the team to go out of the city and arrange an array on the terrain to wait for the enemy.
Until the Zhou army retreated, his father was still not at ease and insisted on staying in the city...... He was already in poor health, he was exhausted and exhausted! ”
The Emperor sighed and asked, "What else did he say?" Nothing else? ”
Duan Decao hesitated for a moment, and replied: "Father's eyes are all wars, how can he tolerate others, if he wants to say that there is, it is just one sentence: 'When the national soldier meets me, the national soldier will repay him'." ”
When the countryman meets me, the countryman will report it...... The emperor stood silently in place, chewing this sentence over and over again, these words came from "Warring States Policy: Zhao Ce", Yu Rang said: "The minister's fan, the Zhongxing clan, and the Zhongxing clan all met me, and I reported it to everyone." As for Zhibo, when the countryman meets me, I will repay the countryman. This sentence is a true portrayal of the faithful man of the dead.
As far as Zhuge Kongming, as close as he Duan Shao, they are all such loyal people to the king.
In troubled times, there will always be such people who stand up and turn the tide, even if the people of the present and future generations laugh at them for not measuring their own strength and using their arms as a car, they have no regrets...... They are the hope for the revival of a nation, and what would happen to a country if it were not for such faithful and speculative people? What will happen to the community?
Gao Wei looked at the silent coffin in front of him, his mind turned back and forth, and he was full of emotion...... It is often said that before a person dies, there will be a moment to look back on his life, and I don't know what Duan Shao was thinking before he died?
probably remembered that Emperor Gao deceived the army, and the displaced people in the six towns returned to Shunjing; I probably remembered the military ministers who defeated Erzhu in the battle...... probably remembered the earth-shattering reversal of the two mountain battles; probably remembered the embarrassment of defeating Chen Xin; I probably remembered the anxiety when I asked Gao Cheng for a beauty......
In his life, he has experienced everything, he has made great achievements, he has been beaten by others, and he has turned the tide alone, relying on his loyalty to Daqi...... But why did he die? Why die at this time - on the eve of victory? I'm obviously about to seize Chang'an, and I'm going to calm the world soon.
Why don't you hold on a little longer and see for yourself?
Gao Wei suppressed his emotions, full of depression in his chest, and stopped for a while before ordering:
"Dazai's coffin is suspended here, and it is not a secret...... Order the Sixth Army, attack on all fronts, do not slack off, take Weinan, Jingyang, Liyang, three days later, I will take the King of the Plains-" He gritted his teeth and spit out a few words, "Enter Chang'an!" ”
