Chapter 442: Unforgivable Compassion

The night sky was dotted with sparkling light, and the cold light of the sky and the dim torches of the city converged. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

Under the city wall that had just experienced a great battle, the bloody gate suddenly opened, and several war horses rushed out and galloped in the clear light of the stars and moon, and in the far direction was the brightly lit camp of the same Jurchen.

Several knights galloped for a while, occasionally passing over a few corpses that had forgotten to gather under the hooves of the horses, followed by patrolling Jurchen cavalry and torches.

"See King Liang...."The patrol leader recognized the appearance of the leader opposite, and saluted on horseback.

Wanyan Zongbi nodded in response, and looked at the camp with arrogant eyes, "Inform the front to open the camp gate, I want to see the second brother." ”

"The Four Princes... I'm sorry, it's a time of war at this moment, and the general ordered no one to see...."

Smack-

A dark shadow swept through the light of the torches, and a bloody streak appeared on the cavalry leader's face. Wan Yan Zongbi pinched the horse whip in his hand and waved it in the air.

"Fuck off... I'll go by myself!" With that, he took the horse's belly and led three guards in the direction of the camp gate.

Wanyan has more than ten brothers in the family, as the elder brother or younger brother of the age, Wanyan Zongbi is obviously qualified, from the Jurchen Liao attack, he went with the army to fight, after the death of his father, the first two brothers because of their identity to stay in Beijing to preside over state affairs, he returned to Tianhui to take care of the rest of the brothers and sisters.

However, receiving the news of the eldest brother Zonggan, for him, his heart became heavy. When he was young, the two brothers taught him well, and as he grew older, his experience gradually widened, and he was faintly a second figure with both civil and military skills, so he looked at the two brothers very seriously.

At this time, he hurried day and night for four or five days in a row, hoping that the two sides would stop fighting and return to the past.

When they arrived at the gate of the barracks, the guards on the guard tower saw the token, so they let the camp gate open, and after entering the gate, Wanyan Zongbi turned off his horse and went to the tent.

Beside the bonfire lit near the surrounding camp tents, there were soldiers and wounded who were warming up and looking over here, and the Jurchen soldiers on patrol stopped Yan Zongbi's guards when they walked here, "Please also ask King Liang not to make it difficult to do lowly ranks, the rules in the army have always been like this." ”

Here, Wanyan Zongbi treated most of these soldiers indifferently, but since the other party put the rules in front, it was inconvenient for him to say more.

"You are waiting for me here. ”

Thus commanded the guards behind him, and strode into the tent.

The curtain was lifted, and several familiar generals in the field of vision were surrounding their second brother, making tactical arrangements in front of a city map.

Seeing that someone had come in from the tent, the generals looked over in unison. The general wearing the fox fur shawl and gold armor put down his hand pressed on the map of Shangjing, and tilted his chin to the generals on the left and right, "That's it for now, go down and rest." ”

Wanyan Zongbi stood there, and several generals who went out from the side whispered hello to him, and quickly lifted the curtain and left. Inside the tent, Wanyan Zongwang suddenly walked back to the handsome seat with a smile, "The vultures are here." ”

There was no answer, and the two looked at each other wordlessly.

After a while, Wanyan Zongbi was still the first to speak, and he walked over.

"Second brother... Is it necessary to be like this? We are all brothers, my father has just left..... what can't be resolved between our brothers? ”

Wanyan Zongwang untied the sword from his waist and threw it on the desk, staring at the other party, "..... we have all grown up...... Some things can't be resolved like when you were a child, Wushu, you can't understand the things in between. ”

"How can you not understand it? Isn't it just that an assassin broke into the palace? I don't believe that you did it, when I entered the city, I read the records of the palace guards, and it was obviously a remnant of the Liao Kingdom!!"

By the candlelight on the desk, Wan Yan Zongbi waved his hand excitedly, put it down, and pressed it on the table, "..... I don't know why the eldest brother said this in the letter, I believe you." ”

"It's not easy for us to defeat the Liao State, don't fight between brothers anymore. The orange-red light swayed on the gritted teeth' face, and there were traces of water in the man's eye sockets.

In the big tent, the two brothers stood on both sides of the desk, the firelight was like a wall in the middle, Wanyan Zongwang looked at his younger brother who was still immature, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

........

On the upper part of Beijing, on the city tower, Wanyan Zonggan's figure stood there looking at the military camp in the distance.

His fingers lightly touched a stain of blood that had not yet dried on the wall, and then twisted between his fingers, the corners of his mouth hooked, "..... you say, what is my brother doing now." ”

On the other side of the wall, seven or eight steps away, the person who was asked had a thin face, his face was like a thunderous man, his beard was thick, he clenched his fists at Zonggan, and his voice was thunderous, like a lion's roar: "I don't know what to do, but King Liang has entered the military camp at this time....news will come soon....I can't guess..."

"You don't dare to guess!" Wan Yan Zonggan put his hands behind his back and walked along the city wall, "....I guess he won't agree, with Han's inseparable character, the arrow is on the bow." ”

The originally vicious face of the general accompanying him became low eyebrows and followed behind him at this moment, hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said yes.

β€œ... Tomorrow, if Zongwang attacks again, you can go up. The walking figure turned his face slightly, and his long beard raised in the wind, "This king also wants to see how powerful our Jin Country master is, and he can compare to Yelu Hongyu, who was once the first in Liao Kingdom." ”

He said this with a smile, and the smile on his face was rather strange. The burly figure behind raised his rough and vicious face, his cheeks trembled, and he clenched his fists: "The mountain lion camel will not let the king down." ”

Zong Gan's smile did not disappear, he nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly chewed a sentence in his mouth: "Marshal Zhanhan's team has come up, we should greet it." ”

The mountain lion camel's expression was stunned, obviously not understanding the meaning of what he was saying.

......

"Wushu, this matter is different from the past. ”

The wind fluttered on the tent, the curtain swept with the wind, the candles swayed between the two, and the figures swayed.

Wanyan Zongwang was silent for a moment, leaned back in his chair, and looked at the shaking fire heart, "This matter... It's already ready to fly, even if I don't fight before, my eldest brother won't let me go. ”

"How so?"

"....The news of His Majesty's assassination, Zong Gan chose to block it as soon as possible, even I, a brother, concealed it, what do you think he is going to do?" Zong Wang straightened up and stood up, "He doesn't trust me....Once Your Majesty dies, only I can compete with him for the throne, he is not at ease." ”

Wan Yan Zongbi was stunned for a moment, and clenched his fists, "Then second brother, have you ever thought about the throne?"

Looking at the people on the other side of the case, Zong Bi faintly looked forward to hope in his heart. However, the man only sneered, picked up the sword on the table and smashed it on the desk.

Phew-

With a crisp sound, the entire case was broken apart, and Wanyan Zongwang's voice suddenly rose: "....It's not a matter of the throne, but he has long had the intention of killing my younger brotherβ€”β€”"

The figure walked back and forth in the tent.

"If I don't raise troops and tear my face with him, I don't know how I will die in the future, the book is not the book that was with us at the beginning, I have read too many books from the scholars of the Wu Dynasty, and I have learned some imperial techniques, and my heart has already changed!"

The original name of Wanyan Zonggan is Wanyan Zonggan.

"......" Yan Zongbi looked at his brother speechlessly, his brows furrowed heavily.

It was very windy outside, and he rolled up the curtain and ran in, and the candle flame in the tent flickered between light and dark, and he vaguely saw tears flowing down Zong Wang's face in the dim light.

Maybe it's too windy.

After a while, Wan Yan Zongbi bowed his hand heavily and said the last sentence of the night.

"When I came, I heard that Uncle Huang was already on the way, he came from Datong, there was a terrible plague there, many people died inside and outside the city in more than ten days, and many became people who are not ghosts or ghosts, I came here, I just don't want to put Dajin in a dilemma because of this incident. ”

It's over.

Zong Wang looked at the back of leaving, his face was expressionless and sunk in the firelight, whether it was to continue to fight or make peace, the things that followed began to become troublesome.

Datong is southwest, close to Yanmen Pass.

In the days of succession, tens of thousands of people had died of the epidemic, or at the hands of others, and the sick, the living, and all of them were full of grief, and the children, the elderly, and the women who had lost their homes cried day and night in the walking procession and on the carts, migrating in the direction of the Wu Dynasty.

And on the Yanmen Pass, you can faintly hear such a sound from a distant place, scattered, and there are also people from the north who are close to the pass gate.

Then, a feathered arrow was fired, and the corpse fell to the ground in convulsions.

In the past 10 days or so, hundreds of people have come to the vicinity of Datong to defect to the pass, but without exception, they were all shot dead in front of the pass or driven away.

Huang Xin walked with the 100 households of Dongchang on the city wall with a haggard and hideous face, the strong bloody gas in the air was spreading, and the 100 households of the Dongchang pointed to the residue left by burying or burning outside.

"General Huang....our family knows that you are uncomfortable, but they have a plague on their bodies, you don't know the news of the spies' return earlier, that Datong is now a purgatory on earth, if you let these people go, then wouldn't our Wu Dynasty suffer together?"

The eunuch looked at the remnants of the city, sighed and spoke, in his vision, a carriage came to the pass, there were voices of women and children in it, looking at the clothes of the people who drove the carriage, it should be relatively wealthy.

The eunuch walked over and took a jar of fire oil piled up under the battlements in his hand, and beside him a soldier lit a rocket, setting off a plume of black smoke.

"There's a kid in thereβ€”" Huang Xin shouted, rushing over.

In sight, the oil tank had been thrown into the air, and Huang Xin stood there in a daze, shouting: "Wang Baihu!!Wang Zhi!!You son of a bitch!!

In his ears, he only heard a crisp sound from under the city wall, the movement of the clay pot shattering, and the archer shot the rocket in his hand downward.

Boom –

The flames rolled up, and at the same time as the black smoke rushed into the sky, there was a heart-rending scream from the thick flames below.

The firelight reflected Wang Zhi's face, he stared at the figure rolling wildly in the fire, and said with a split mouth: "Being cruel to them is ..... mercy to the people of my Wu Dynasty." ”

"Ahhh

Huang Xin covered his ears, his forehead slammed against the floor tiles, and pressed hard against the screams in the flames of the ........, and the emotionless words in the eunuch's mouth, like the voice from hell.

He couldn't stand it anymore.
