"Jun'er, go and save him!" Wei Rui shouted and ordered Fan Jundao. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, Fan Jun had just dismounted to check on Chabu's injuries, and when he heard Wei Rui's urgent order, his heart ached like a knife, but he had to listen to the general's order, so he had to take off his helmet and armor, quickly ran to the river, and plunged headlong at the place where Yuan Xiang fell into the water.
Wei Rui ordered his men to take the chariot to the edge of the river, he stepped down from the chariot, and walked quickly to the front of Chabu, who was very injured at this time, after he saw Wei Rui, he originally wanted to struggle to get up and salute, but he just moved, and gave up. Wei Rui hurriedly held him down and said in a low voice: "Don't move, I will send a doctor to treat you, you must hold on, wait for Fan Jun to come back." ”
A comforting smile pulled out at the corner of Chabu's mouth, and shook his head gently, he knew that he couldn't live, at this time he didn't feel sad at all, although he didn't want to meet Fan Jun on the battlefield, but today's way of dying like this is an excellent relief.
"General Wei ---- General Wei has ---- words ----, ---- Chabu, and ---- ---- to trouble the general and bring it to ---- Fan Jun----" Chabu said with pain.
Wei Rui nodded and said, "Chabu, you have to hold on, wouldn't it be better to tell Fan Jun yourself?"
Qab smiled hard: "General ---- army, tell him that ---- come, next life---- we will be ---- brothers again----"
"Chabu ----" Li Zhong suddenly cried on the side, "I didn't expect you to rush up, I didn't mean to hurt you." ”
Wei Rui asked in a trembling voice, "Chabu, you don't want Fan Jun to say goodbye to you, do you?"
Chabu nodded imperceptibly, he knew that Wei Rui was extremely smart, and he would definitely understand why he did this. Two big tears flowed from his eyes, and the smile on his face froze on his face like this, he slowly closed his eyes, and he finally fixed his life under Zhongli City, on the bank of Huaishui.
After Fan Jun jumped into the water, he smelled the heavy bloody breath in the river, and he realized that the bodies of the soldiers who died on both sides were sunk in this Huai Shui, and the river water was mixed with too much blood of the dead soldiers, Fan Jun saw Yuan Xiang, who did not know the nature of the water, was exhaling the last breath in her chest, her hands hung down softly, and there was no help when she saw it, Fan Jun swam to her side, took her into her arms, put his mouth to her lips, and sent the breath he had inhaled before diving down to her mouth----
After Yuan Xiang's hands and feet began to shake, Fan Jun pulled her out of the water with all his might, and after Yuan Xiang surfaced, he spit out a few mouthfuls of river water before she began to breathe.
Fan Jun picked her up and walked in front of Wei Rui step by step, Wei Rui stretched out his hand to take Yuan Xiang, and Fan Jun hurriedly came to Chabu. At this time, there was no longer a shout of killing on the battlefield, and those who could withdraw from the Wei army had withdrawn to the north bank, and those who could not withdraw were either captured or killed.
In this strange dead silence, Fan Jun, who was staring at the smile on Chabu's face, choked in his throat at this time, he couldn't think of his good friend, who was really separated from his heaven and man forever at this time---- he finally couldn't hold back, hugged Chabu's body and cried.
Wei Rui handed over Yuan Xiang in his arms to the military doctor who rushed over, and ordered him to treat Yuan Xiang's arrow wound well. He slowly walked to Fan Jun's side, listening to the sad crying that this child had never had, he didn't intend to dissuade Fan Jun, just let him cry, in the past few years, the only thing he could open his heart to say a few words in his heart was the dead Chabu in his arms, if it wasn't for the hostility between the two countries, they might have become confidants, but ---- the cruel reality now, they will never have a chance to be together again.
The shouts and killings on the north shore are still coming and going, Wei Rui stood there silently, listening to the sound on the battlefield, he had mixed feelings in his heart, and now Daliang finally fought back in the defensive battle for many years and achieved an unprecedented victory, but as the commander of this battle, Wei Rui did not feel proud at all, especially looking at the pair of good brothers in front of him, he couldn't be happy.
After a long time, he said slowly: "Jun'er, before Chabu arrives, you want me to tell you ----."
Fan Jun shook his head gently: "Father-in-law, I don't want to hear anything now, I just want to stay with him for a while." ”
Wei Rui hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said: "Okay, you can do what you want, it's just a person's sadness, and there is a time limit---- you can't be sad forever." ”
Fan Jun slowly raised his head after hearing this, his eyes were blood-red at this time, Fan Jun slowly put Chabu on the ground, he stood up, pointed to the Huaishui and said, "Father-in-law, have you seen the Huaishui at this time?"
Wei Rui turned his gaze to Huaishui, he was also stunned when he saw the scene in front of him, the Huaishui in front of him, because the water was filled with the remains of too many dead soldiers on both sides, the Huaishui that was originally rushing down was almost blocked by those dead soldiers at this time, and the river that flowed down had been stained red with blood.
Wei Rui's heart was also deeply shocked, he thought of the outcome of the battle, but he didn't expect it to be such a tragic situation. He clenched the bamboo ruyi in his hand, and at this point he really wanted to turn back time and erase this tragic scene from his mind.
"Father-in-law, why do you want to fight?" Fan Jun asked in a low voice.
"----" Wei Rui was silent and did not answer him.
"Father-in-law---- you answer me, why do you want to fight?" Fan Jun asked in a raised voice.
Wei Rui let out a long sigh and still didn't answer.
"Father-in-law, do you see this? This is the consequence of the war, is this what we have wanted all these years?" Fan Jun asked loudly.
Wei Rui walked up to him with a gloomy face: "Fan Jun, do you really want to know the answer?"
"Yes, I want to know, I want to know why I am here, why I have to go through life and death, why I have to witness this tragic scene, why I have to experience the life and death of my brother----"
"That's because the emperor wants this, do you understand Fan Jun?" Wei Rui's eyes widened angrily, he stretched out the bamboo Ruyi, pointed to the Huaishui blocked by the corpses of the soldiers, and said loudly: "The reason why you see this in front of you is because of the emperor's greed!"
Fan Jun looked at the father-in-law in front of him in a daze, a rare flush appeared on Wei Rui's face, and he said to Fan Jun with some excitement: "Whoever wants to fight the most is the emperor who is high, war can bring more land, more people, and more wealth." What are we, we are the dust of the emperor on the road of conquest, we are the quicksand in the long river of history, in order to get more benefits, for the ever-expanding selfish desires in his heart, his interests can be sacrificed, and the Yuan Ke of the Northern Wei Dynasty is also to hunt for more benefits, Yuan Ying, Xing Luan, and Yang Dayan of the Northern Wei Dynasty, do you think they are different from us? No! We are all the same people, we are all ---- the quicksand in the eyes of the emperor, which can pass away with the wind at any time----"
Wei Rui looked at Fan Jun's sad eyes, his heart was also very painful, originally he didn't want this child to go through all this, but in the end he didn't change anything, or let this child follow him, let him experience that tragic battle after another, now this child's performance, just like the confusion of his youth, at that time, he also couldn't understand why he had to fight again and again, to occupy the land of other countries, and plunder the population and livestock on that land. After decades of baptism, he finally figured it all out, but what if he was a man and figured it out?
When did the war start, the war began when there were people, and when people were in chaos, they didn't know that there was a difference between you and me, between you and me, between you and me, and between you and me in this habitat, and that there was no war at that time, but this person, after having selfish interests, had a sense of possession, and began to compete between people. Jun'er---- today's words, I wanted to say it a long time ago, but I can't bear it, I can't bear to deprive you of the softness and kindness in your heart so cruelly----" Wei Rui couldn't go on, he paused, trying to control the intense emotions in his heart.
"Father-in-law----" Fan Jun saw Wei Rui's sad appearance, and he was also very unbearable.
"I don't know if you've thought about it, why did your grandfather's family suffer a catastrophe of annihilation? Why did your Fan family have unfortunate things again and again?" Wei Rui asked him after calming down.
"---- father-in-law, I think I understand, because my grandfather, my father, must have touched someone's interests. Fan Jun really understood everything at this time.
Wei Rui nodded: "What happened to your Fan family is by no means accidental, and if you want to go home, the journey is by no means as simple as you think---- some things are best if you can avoid them, but they are often things that we can't avoid if we want to." Wei Rui remembered another identity on his body, and naturally he was more clear in his heart.
"Quicksand ----" Fan Jun slowly spit out two words after a while.
