Chapter 225: Highlight Moment

Zhang Yongjie actually knew that although the martial arts of the Xuankong monk were very different from his own, he was at least one of the three masters in the past, and his martial arts were not bad.

If a person with his kind of kung fu really learns the so-called 'Ten Thousand Phases Divine Skill', then he must be a terrifying existence.

So Zhang Yongjie wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of the Xuankong monk in advance, but due to the relationship between Jiacheng and Wengcheng, he had to let him go, which can be said to be regretful everywhere in life.

But now I know that this Xuankong Monk and Black Iron Monk will at least not help each other with Hattori Thousand Yuan, which is finally a happy thing.

The fire outside the city was already raging, and it was no longer dawn for the Sharp Knife Army to begin the siege of the city.

Zhang Yongjie quickly came to the inner city in the west and prepared an ambush. As long as he heard the sound of Li Geng blowing up the city gate with a 'fire cloud thunderbolt', Zhang Yongjie would quickly rush out, kill the Japanese guarding the inner city gate, and open the city to cooperate with Li Geng's actions.

The battle went very smoothly, and before dawn, it took only two hours for the Sharp Knife Army to recover Jiacheng and expel the Japanese from the city.

Although the Sharp Knife Army won another battle, Li Geng and the others were not happy, because this kind of result should have been obtained on the day they received the military order from the minister, but because of their caution, they lingered for many days before they could complete it.

Is that meritorious? Probably not really.

At noon the next day, the Sharp Knife Army had just finished cleaning the battlefield, and the follow-up military order of the Ministry Hall was conveyed to the army.

The Japanese led a large army to fight General Qi outside the city of Zhenjiang, and the Japanese were defeated, and at this moment they were rapidly fleeing to the mouth of the Yangtze River, preparing to board ships from the small island there and go to sea.

Therefore, the lord of the ministry ordered the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Army to rush to the mouth of the Yangtze River to intercept the escape of the Japanese invaders.

After receiving the military order, Zhang Yongjie divided the Sharp Knife Army into two parts, one part of which was a cavalry team composed of people with strong martial arts, about 1,000 people. He personally led the 1,000 cavalry and rushed to the mouth of the Yangtze River first.

And Li Geng led the follow-up main force and rushed to the battlefield one step later to intercept the Japanese invaders.

The cavalry unit led by Zhang Yongjie marched too fast, even faster than the speed of the Japanese invaders. When Zhang Yongjie reached the mouth of the Yangtze River, the vanguard of the Japanese also arrived there.

The warship of the Japanese invaders stayed on Changxing Island, while the warship of our Ming Dynasty did not know the specific location at the moment, and it may have gone to other seas.

Once the Japanese invaders board the ship and flee to sea, they will inevitably make a comeback when they have relieved themselves. This is a situation that every Ming general does not want to see.

The military situation was urgent, Zhang Yongjie decided not to wait for the follow-up troops, and immediately led the army to kill Changxing Island and fought with the Japanese invaders, so that the Japanese could not escape smoothly. As long as the follow-up Ming troops catch up, the Japanese will inevitably die without a place to be buried.

And this decision will put the vanguard of the Sharp Knife Army in a dangerous position, and Zhang Yongjie inspected the officers and men of the Sharp Knife Army on the Yangtze River to boost morale.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Yongjie saw that Uncle Wan Dong was also in this team. Thinking that Uncle Wan Dong is an important figure in my Thousand Islands, although martial arts cannot be said to be at the peak, they will inevitably not be harmed by the Japanese invaders.

What's even more strange is that Chen Dong, this kid, is also riding a black horse and mixing in this team.

Chen Dong doesn't know martial arts, how did he get into this team? But the military situation is urgent, and Zhang Yongjie doesn't have time to care about these things at the moment.

Dozens of ferries have been pulled by nearby militia groups for the Sharp Knife Army, and the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Army crossed the river in batches to attack Changxing Island.

As long as they rushed ahead of most of the routed Japanese army, attacked Changxing Island, controlled the warships on the island, and used the battlefield out of the sea, the Japanese would definitely not be able to flee.

However, there were also a small number of soldiers on the battlefield of the Japanese Invaders, and when they saw that the Sharp Knife Army was leading a team to attack the island, they immediately set sail and wanted to choose another place to meet the Japanese on land.

Zhang Yongjie immediately shouted: "You must not let the Japanese invaders sail the boat, everyone rushed to the warship and snatched those ships." ”

There were only seven or eight ships on Changxing Island, and all of them were troop carriers, so the firepower on the ships was insufficient to effectively block the offensive of the Sharp Knife Army.

The vanguard of the Sharp Knife Army has landed on Changxing Island at this moment, and fought with the Japanese pirates on the island, killing Hutian and grabbing the earth.

At this very moment, a warship had already fled towards the open sea.

The ferry port is a bit special, there are a lot of heavy loads on the warship, so the draft is deep. This kind of warship generally needs someone to build a special dock to be suitable for docking.

The vanguard of the Sharp Knife Army, in order to complete Zhang Yongjie's combat deployment, must complete two key battles before it can succeed.

The first key point is that there is a wooden pass on the island from the dock, which must be seized to prevent the Japanese army from reaching the pier.

The second key point is that when the dock goes out to sea, it will be far from a relatively narrow body of water, and if you can find a way to block this narrow water, then the warships of the Japanese will not be able to escape from the sea, which can be considered perfect.

In the scuffle, Zhang Yongjie shouted: "Who has the Tangmen firearm 'Huoyun Thunderbolt'?"

The soldiers of the Sharp Knife Army in the melee immediately presented two 'Fire Cloud Thunderbolt Bombs', two were really too few.

If the old father-in-law Tang Jun had allocated a few baskets of 'Fire Cloud Thunderbolts' to himself earlier, he would definitely fight a desperate battle for the Japanese Kou today, so that they would have no place to bury.

Zhang Yongjie said again at this time: "Come two brothers and carry out a death mission." ”

The so-called death mission, that is, there is a mission to go and no return, and people who do this kind of thing are generally called dead soldiers.

The soldiers of the Sharp Knife Army are all composed of martial arts people, and they are still a little afraid in their hearts to carry out this kind of death-defying task.

Although they can die in battle at any time, die on the battlefield. But after all, with the advantage of martial arts, there is also a great chance of survival on the battlefield.

Therefore, Zhang Yongjie's call to death mission, no one responded for a while.

Zhang Yongjie shouted: "If you don't want to carry out the death mission, you will rush me, and you will take the pass ahead at any cost!"

That wooden pass is an important route for the Japanese to escape, how can the Japanese easily let the sharp knife army rob it?

The Sharp Knife Army's troops, Ziaya's pressed on the wooden pass, and fought with the Japanese Kou.

Zhang Yongjie glanced at the narrow water in the distance, and the Japanese had obviously sent a big ship to flee there. A way must be found to blow up and sink the first ship of the Wako in that area of water, in order to effectively stop the escape of the Wako.

Moreover, it is not possible to blow up from the outside, you have to go deep into the enemy ship, run down the inside of the shipyard yourself, blow up a hole with a 'fire cloud thunderbolt', and let the sea water in, so as to achieve that effect.

Chen Dong came to Zhang Yongjie's side at this time and said, "Commander Zhang, I am willing to carry out this death mission." ”

This is the first sentence Chen Dong said to Zhang Yongjie since he joined the army five years ago. And this first sentence is the words of the war.

Zhang Yongjie pointed to the distant warship and said: "Now I want to send someone to board the warship and blow up the ship, this is a way to go, can you do it?"

Chen Dong looked at the warship in the distance, pondered for a moment, and said: "What I can do, although I don't know martial arts, but I have learned a few words of Fusang language in private in the past few years, and I can blend in with it." ”

Zhang Yongjie said: "What are you doing learning Fusang language?"

Chen Dong said in frustration: "I have no place to stand in Daming, I originally wanted to flee to the three islands of Fusang and find a place to hide my name." But after thinking about it, it is better to die in battle than to live in the world. ”

Zhang Yongjie knew that this combat mission was extremely dangerous, and this Chen Dong was very timid back then, could he really complete the task?

Zhang Yongjie said: "You should know that this time, the person who performs the task will definitely die, you can think about it." ”

Chen Dong laughed, quite arrogant, and said: "Master, I don't want to live for a long time, if I can find a way to die well, count it as my luck in this life, so I will definitely do this." ”

Zhang Yongjie said again: "You go, what should Aunt Chen do?"

Chen Dong said: "How can I die in such a way that I will not be able to contribute to the country? If I die in such a way, how can you ignore my parents? I believe that you will definitely try to take care of my parents." ”

Zhang Yongjie nodded and said: "Okay, Uncle Chen, Aunt Chen, my Qiandao faction is responsible for the elderly and sending them to the end, you can go with peace of mind." ”

After speaking, Zhang Yongjie was about to hand over the two 'Fire Cloud Thunderbolt Bombs' that he had just collected to Chen Dong.

At this moment, Qiandao Wandong hurriedly came over to stop him and said, "Yongjie, there is something I must tell you, so that you don't regret it in the future." ”

Zhang Yongjie said: "Uncle Shi, the battlefield is urgent at the moment, how can I have time to listen to your nonsense, you should wait until the end of the war." ”

Wan Dong hurriedly said: "No, this matter must be said immediately, it will be too late if it is too late." ”

Zhang Yongjie looked at Wan Dong and motioned for him to speak up quickly.

Wan Dong said: "According to the records of Qiandao's life experience, your biological parents are Chen Yuan and his wife in Crab Bay, so this Chen Dong can be regarded as your half-brother and half-mother, you let him go to the death mission this time, you have to think about it in advance." ”

On this battlefield where soldiers are constantly fighting and killing people shouting to the sky, Zhang Yongjie suddenly learned of his life experience, is the scene not harmonious?

Zhang Yongjie was stunned and said, "What are you talking about? My biological parents are Chen Yuan and his wife?"

Wan Dong nodded and said, "At this critical moment, why did Uncle Shi lie to you? I told you anyway, if you want this Chen Dong to die, you can make up your own mind. ”

After Wan Dong finished speaking, he immediately ran into the distance and fought with the Japanese invaders.

Chen Dong laughed and said, "If I had known that there was a brother like you, I would have been cut off from the world a long time ago." ”

Zhang Yongjie never expected Chen Dong to say such a thing, and looked at Chen Dong puzzled.

Chen Dongdao: "In my life, one wrong step and one wrong step, I have long lived not like a human being. I wanted to commit suicide many times, but I thought that my parents had no one to take care of me, so I endured the humiliation and pinned my hopes on the future, and did not dare to die. ”

Zhang Yongjie saw that Chen Dong characterized what he had done before as a burden of forbearance, and he didn't agree with this sentence in his heart.

The gambler's forbearance and humiliation are not called forbearance and humiliation, but it is called seeking death and making death. But Zhang Yongjie suddenly learned the news of his biological parents, and his mind was confused, so he didn't say anything to scold Chen Dong.

Chen Dongdao: "Now, since you are my brother of the same father and mother, then this matter must be completed by me now." ”

This was unexpected by Zhang Yongjie, who thought that after Chen Dong knew that it was his biological eldest brother, he would spare his life and become unwilling to die.

But I didn't expect this Chen Dong to be determined instead.

Chen Dong took the two 'Huoyun Thunderbolts' from Zhang Yongjie's hands and said: "In my life, I have done a lot of things wrong. I really don't have the ability to turn the tables, no matter how hard I try, others will look at me with colored glasses, join the army for five years, kill dozens of Japanese pirates, because of my dirty past, I can't even mix with a single hand, why am I still alive?"

One did not let Chen Dong serve as the president, which was obviously a mockery of Zhang Yongjie for looking at Chen Dong with colored glasses.

Chen Dong shook his hand and said: "I haven't changed in this life, I really can't turn it up, I gave up." Thankfully, there's a big fighter here, and I'm pretty content with a dignified death. ”

Chen Dong said again: "I am your eldest brother, if you don't let me go, it will make other Sword Army brothers feel cold, and others will think that the life of this Commander Zhang's brother is more expensive, so Commander Zhang would rather take the lives of other brothers to serve as cannon fodder, which will have an impact on your bright, great and righteous image." ”

Chen Dong said again: "You have always looked down on me, I don't want to smear your reputation." ”

Chen Dong found a sharp knife, cut off a bundle of hair, tied it with a rope, put it into a purse, and handed the purse to Zhang Yongjie. said: "Please give this purse to my father, even if I keep a thought, just say that the child is sorry for them in this life." ”

After speaking, Chen Dong took the two 'Fire Cloud Thunderbolt Bombs' and ran towards the narrow water.

Because Zhang Yongjie suddenly learned that Chen Dong was his biological eldest brother, he couldn't accept it for a while, and he was stunned on the spot, so in the face of Chen Dong's sarcasm, Zhang Yongjie did not talk.

Maybe some of Chen Dong's words will make Zhang Yongjie think of it many times in his future life.

Yes, in the face of Chen Dong, Zhang Yongjie really doesn't look down on Chen Dong in his heart.

It was indeed Zhang Yongjie who suppressed Chen Dong's promotion and reward many times, but he didn't expect these things to make Chen Dong have a will to die.

In fact, people have limitations, according to Chen Dong's past, Zhang Yongjie is not the only one who looks at him with colored glasses.

On the contrary, you can think about it from another angle, even Zhang Yongjie, a 'man with lofty ideals' and a "famous man in the world", cannot avoid subjective contempt for Chen Dong, and you can think of how difficult Chen Dong's life is.

In his own words, he has absolutely no chance to turn over in his life. That's why he thought of secretly learning a few words of Fusang language and wanted to go to Fusang for development.

But thinking that the future is bleak, it is better to be right here, throwing his life on the battlefield, so that he can also die with dignity.

Three quarters of an hour later, a loud bang sounded on the battlefield of the Japanese in the narrow waters, and the smoke was billowing and quickly sank into the river, blocking the follow-up warships from escaping overseas.

This loud bang is also a rare highlight moment in Chen Dong's life. In this way, Chen Dong ended his lingering life, and he was able to walk peacefully.

Chen Dong thought many times that he would not die well in this life, so he was indeed very satisfied to be able to die like this.

After all, such a way of dying is valuable and heroic.

A mortal can also burst out of his highlight moment at a certain moment.

Chen Dong is happy, and in his own words, many people who are in the same predicament as him may not have such a valuable chance to die. Not everyone can experience this kind of 'whitewashing' moment.

Chen Dong's death was indeed whitewashed in Zhang Yongjie's heart.

Zhang Yongjie also knew that he had 'looked down on people with dog's eyes', looked down on Chen Dong, and prevented the Sharp Knife Army from promoting Chen Dong many times.

But then again, Chen Dong's previous behavior really can't be looked up to at all. The he did before him wasn't done by people.

Zhang Yongjie didn't know what to say about this, so he took the purse containing Chen Dong's hair into his arms, and immediately joined the battle group to attack the wooden pass of the Japanese robber.

ps: Zhang Yongjie's life story was revealed, and these things could have made a better story, but due to the dismal results, the writing really collapsed, hey. Is this traditional martial arts book really so worthless? I really don't want to believe it.

I'll take my time to finish it.
