Chapter Seventy-Eight: Brother and Sister Recognize Each Other
Liu Dong said that he still understands how to mobilize the enthusiasm of soldiers, and he is also willing.
The more you give, the more you receive.
If someone can really capture Guan Cheng alive, what can he do if he gives up a title without a fief, it's just a little more.
But if he can succeed in winning Guan Cheng, it will definitely shock the world, and his name Liu Dong will not only be in the Jin Kingdom.
Although the royal family is in decline, Liu Dong heard that the royal family still has a large number of treasures, all kinds of precious collections, unique classics, and most importantly, the most detailed map of the whole world, which is extremely coveted by any vassal state.
What is it? This is the hope of a proper gold country hegemony.
Liu Dong had even thought of the birth of a Dajin Dynasty, and he sat high in the center, the ministers of the palace, the guards of the tiger in the four directions, looking at the world, and the lord of Chu and Zhao prostrate down the mountain and shouting long live.
That's how it should be!
The more Liu Dong thought about it, the more excited he became, and even the steps under his feet were a little brisk and powerful, and he quickly rushed to the front.
The soldiers don't understand what the world is, but they know that if they have dozens or hundreds or even thousands of acres of fertile land and don't have to pay taxes, and when they return to the township, the admiring eyes of half the young men and the shyness of the big girls and little daughters-in-law are enough to make the blood soar.
All of a sudden, the Jin army was murderous from top to bottom, and the cry shook the sky.
Hundreds of Jin soldiers raised their swords in their hands and fought hard, with a trace of the momentum of people blocking and killing people and killing Buddhas and killing gods, leaving a mess everywhere they passed.
Liu Dong looked like he was doing enough, and gradually reached the center of the group, the top of the mountain was not very far, and soon the Jin soldiers saw that their scouts were fighting with the beasts, although some people were injured, but the corpses of the underground beasts were enough to prove their bravery.
Liu Dong was even more excited, he had already vaguely seen a flag, the purple flag used to fly in the capital of the Jin Kingdom, and now he didn't know where it was covered with ashes.
"Ma Quan! Ma Quan! Liu Dong looked ahead and shouted.
Not far ahead, a Jin Jun hurriedly turned his head and glanced a few times, and after confirming the person who shouted, he hurriedly responded: "Your Highness!" ”
Ma Quan ran to Liu Dong and wiped his sweat and asked, "Your Highness, what's the matter?" ”
"Ben Gongzi asked you, have you found the Jinjun soldiers?"
Ma Quan's face tightened and said: "Back to Your Highness, the Jin army and horses are on the mountain, but the beasts in this forest don't know what crazy they have been attacking our army, making it difficult for the generals." ”
"This must be manipulated by a master, and it seems that the rumors are somewhat credible even if they are illusory."
Ma Quan nodded convincingly and said, "Your Highness, it's just that these brutes have to be dealt with after all, otherwise the Jin army will run away." ”
"Have you found out how many people there are in the Jin army?" Liu Dong's eyes were burning, for fear of missing a word.
Ma Quan Zhengse said: "The last general doesn't dare to say anything, but only more than ten people have been found so far, and the last general is moving to the west." ”
"More than a dozen people?" Liu Dong frowned slightly, pondered a little and said: "Even if there are ambush soldiers in the Jin army, I am afraid that there are not many, he Guan Cheng only has a total of how many people, and he has fought so many battles, even if there are some remaining men and horses, I am afraid that they have been scattered in the past two days, in the opinion of my son, if Guan Cheng still has soldiers and horses, there are only dozens of people, and at this time he is still suspicious, then he is really looking for death." ”
Ma Quan said with an epiphany on his face: "What His Highness said is very true, the Jin army is from afar, although it is lucky to win so many battles, but the loss must be not small, otherwise there will not be only a few people left." ”
Liu Dong nodded with satisfaction and said, "You don't want to lead people to chase after the war now, you must bite Guan Cheng." ”
While the two were talking, a sergeant ran over, "Your Highness, Du Sima has sent someone." ”
Liu Dong frowned slightly, and signaled the horse to set off at full speed before saying, "Bring it here." ”
The person who came turned out to be dressed in company long clothes.
"The last general, Gao Yuan, see His Highness."
Liu Dong asked in a gentle and soft voice, "Company Commander Gao is here for reinforcements?" ”
Gao Yuan said apologetically: "Back to Your Highness, it is exactly, the last general has led one hundred and fifty elites to come on the order of Du Sima to wait for the dispatch." In addition, Du Sima also asked the last general to report to His Highness that Yan Sima's reinforcements were less than twenty miles away. ”
Yan Tao's status in the Jin army is a bit of a one-man husband, the farts of the lord of the Jin country are fragrant, except for the lord of the country, who does not give face, even Liu Dong, the son of the world, has eaten in front of Yan Tao in the early years, although Yan Tao has acted a little more low-key in the past two years, but Liu Dong's heart is still a fork, and several Sima are aware of this.
Sure enough, when Liu Dong heard Yan Tao's name, he felt embarrassed, and then sneered: "Yan Sima ran quite fast, but it was a little slower than the speed at which he escaped. ”
"Company Commander Gao, come forward."
Then Liu Dong pointed to the map with the long sword in his hand and said: "According to the reconnaissance of this son, it is speculated that the Jin army in front of him should be the men and horses led by Guan Cheng Xiaoer, and the number is very small, but the terrain of this mountain is complex and dangerous, although there are hundreds of people in this son, but it is still a little difficult to be foolproof, but since you are here, the company commander is here, then the confidence of this son is a little more." ”
"You see, here, at the top of the mountain, this son has sent the elite to go, and then there will be a division to follow up, according to the scout's report, the Jin army has retreated to the west, but here to the west can finally reach the place is only Rejection Liang, and now there is only one outpost of Rejection Liang but one track, so this son hopes that you can lead the headquarters of the people and horses to rush forward lightly, you must arrive at Rejection Liang before Guan Cheng, and tie this pocket to this son to death, do you understand?"
Gao Yuan said confidently: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the last general's department is notoriously fast in our rear army, and even in this mountain road, it is like walking on the ground, and the last general in the Jin army will not want to escape." ”
Liu Dong was overjoyed and said, "Okay! If you block Guan Cheng, this son will personally ask you for credit. ”
Gao Yuan was naturally overjoyed and hurriedly expressed his loyalty.
Liu Dong was noncommittal about this, in his opinion, the position of the lord of the Jin Kingdom was his, it was just a matter of time.
Hundreds of Jin soldiers scattered in an orderly manner and pressed towards the top of the mountain, and the speed of the reinforcements of the Jin soldiers was not unfast, although there were fierce beasts blocking along the way, most of them could only let out bursts of wails.
The voice was miserable, and Xiao Tan felt that his heart was dripping blood.
She felt that she was really about to collapse, although she didn't know the word collapse, but it didn't affect the terrible brokenness in Xiao Tan's heart at this moment.
Since she was a child, she has been here since she was a child, and how many tigers, leopards, bears and wolves are her playmates, but now that voice is like a sharp knife stabbing into her chest.
"Brother, Ah Huang, can they stop it?"
Guan Cheng didn't answer, his expression was very solemn, according to the scout's report, the Jin soldiers behind came to reinforcements again, and the Jin army generals divided their troops, and galloped all the way to the west, without thinking about it, they knew that they were blocking people.
Where Ling'er is, where the remaining troops are, and how many people from the Jin army will catch up, there is no way to know, Guan Cheng feels that he is now scurrying around the forest as if he has lost his five senses, and he is surrounded by bloodthirsty demons.
The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves on his face and all around, and the mottled shadows would definitely be a sight to look at in normal times, but at this time, Guan Cheng felt that the fog that filled the forest was like a substance, obscuring all vision and safety.
The mountain road is difficult, but what is more difficult than the mountain road is the future.
"Brother, if this continues, Ah Huang, they won't be able to live!" Xiao Tan suddenly stopped, clenched his fists and roared at Guan Cheng's back.
Guan Cheng seemed to finally face up to the girl next to him, only to see Xiao Tan's eyes full of tears, his lips trembling, and his face full of grief and indignation.
"Brother, Ah Huang, what should they do? Did you hear that? They were all saying goodbye to me, and they couldn't come back, just like grandpa. ”
Guan Cheng was also very sad, touched Xiao Tan's hair and said softly: "Xiao Tan girl, now we are difficult to protect ourselves, the enemy is outnumbered, and if we hesitate, it is possible that the whole army will be wiped out, and the bones will not exist, and when we come back in the future, we will set up a monument for them to be gods, okay?" ”
"Erect a monument? Apotheosize? ”
"Yes, I'll make them remembered by everyone!"
Xiao Tan stomped his feet and said hatefully: "What's the use of erecting a monument?" What's the use of everyone remembering? They died and never saw each other again! It's like a mother, you can't see it, you can't see it at all! ”
After saying that, Xiao Tan took out a piece of jade pendant, and Guan Cheng's eyes were stunned for a moment.
Time seemed to stop at this moment.
"Where did you get this jade pendant?" Guan Cheng asked in disbelief, staring at Yu Pei and trembling.
Guan Cheng felt that he had never been so nervous as he was now, and his hand reached into his arms and took out a brocade bag, perhaps the more he was too anxious to open it.
Xiao Tan handed over the dagger on his waist, Guan Cheng trembled and cut open the brocade bag, and took out another jade pendant: "This is a piece of jade for the mother and mother, and it is the personal jade pendant of the queen mother." ”
As he spoke, he dodged the jade pendant in Xiao Tan's hand and pasted it with a shudder.
The two pieces of jade are tightly fitted, which can be called ingenious.
"The queen mother died in childbirth that year, leaving me this jade pendant, Ziyu is in my hand, the mother jade is to accompany the funeral, where did this piece in your hand come from?"
Guan Chengbian said that the more apprehension in his heart became, he had a bad premonition in his heart, and his hand couldn't help but stretch out to his waist.
At this moment, his mind was in chaos.
"If I say you're my brother, do you believe me?"
Guan Cheng's hand stopped instantly, and he stayed in place like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
"No, it can't be!"
"My sister didn't survive in the first place, how could it be!"
"But if she's alive, she'll be as old as you."
"How did this jade pendant come from!"
Guan Chengyi pulled out the saber at his waist, and a hideous appearance appeared on his face: "You are so bold, you dare to rob the emperor's tomb!" ”
"No, Zhang Shuai can't do any kind of thing!"
Guan Cheng hugged his head, and tears flowed out unconsciously.
Xiao Tan walked to the side and slowly hugged Guan Cheng's head to his chest, and said softly: "Grandpa said it himself, he saved me and raised me, I believe in grandpa, he won't lie to me." ”
"Brother! Isn't it good that I'm still alive? ”
This sentence is like a morning star, which makes Guan Cheng's confused thinking instantly have a trace of clarity.
The connection between the bloodlines made Guan Cheng's heart have an inexplicable warm current.
