Chapter 2 The First Time on the Battlefield

On the third night after Lin Yuanqing and their enlistment, suddenly a rapid drum beat woke up the sleeping people, everyone panicked and dressed up and rushed to the school to gather, the school was brightly lit, only to see General Chen standing at the review stand, a serious face kept scanning everyone, the field was full of murderous atmosphere, just a pillar of incense time, after the leaders led their teams to stand, the snare drum stopped, General Chen waved his hand and shouted: " According to the report from the spies, the Liang army is still twenty miles away from our city, and it is expected to arrive at the city at the end of the hour, and the generals will listen to the order and set up camp one mile west of the city at the right time to defend against foreign enemies!" General Chen paused at this time, slowly glanced at the sergeants in the circle, and took out a blue flower that was blooming "Everyone, this battle is a battle to defend the country, please firmly remember that you must not retreat, because behind you is your hometown, for this blue and white, for your family, we will not give up an inch of land! Do you hear that?!"

"I heard it!" "We are heroes!" General Chen nodded with satisfaction, Lin Yuanqing's original nervous mood had been transformed into excitement with the shouts of the soldiers in the audience, he also clenched his fists and shouted with everyone, at this time a hand was pressed on his shoulder, and when he turned his head, it turned out to be Zhao Youcai, but there was no excited expression on his face, but he was worried, Lin Yuanqing just wanted to ask him what was wrong, at this time, the captains of the army ran over to stop the soldiers who were still shouting, and led the team to rush out of the city to set up camp.

When the time came quickly, all the battalions were ready, General Chen's arrangement was that the charging battalion was ambushed on the hillside on both sides of the road, the Aegis battalion was facing the enemy, resisting the opponent's bow and arrows, the archer battalion was behind the Aegis battalion, and when the enemy rushed to 200 paces to shoot, the round of arrows was completed and immediately retreated, and the cavalry battalion of the formation rushed to the enemy, the spear battalion, The Longknife Battalion followed closely behind and began to fight at close quarters, when the soldiers in ambush on both sides of the battlefield rushed out, cut off the enemy at the waist, fought and retreated, and after destroying the surrounded enemy, everyone retreated to the city to defend.

After the captains of each team finished talking about the tactics, they led everyone to ambush on the hillside on the left, everyone lay quietly on the ground motionless, but the sound of heavy breathing came and went, Lin Yuanqing was even more flushed, sweat kept dripping down his cheeks, and the hand holding the handle of the knife kept shaking slightly, Zhao Youcai looked at him worriedly, touched him lightly, and whispered: " Xiao Lin, when you rush for a while, you will be slower, let's try our best to run towards our troops, don't follow Liang Jun on the way, you can hide if you can, this is not like fighting, if you accidentally have a hole in your body, you see how scary the scar on our Wu Chang's face is. Lin Yuanqing was motionless at this time, staring intently at the road in the distance, and almost said with gritted teeth: "Brother Zhao, why are you so cowardly?!" You see how good General Chen said just now, we are defending the family and the country, as long as we can kill Liang Bing, we are heroes, and when we go back, we will be proud when we talk to Grandpa and Tao Tao! After he finished speaking, he kept whispering to himself: "Hero, hero, hero... Zhao Youcai wanted to say something more, but he heard the snare drums, and the dust was flying at the end of the road, and after a while, he saw the black and oppressive army in the distance walking in unison to this side, the scorching sun was on the head, but he felt that the sky was getting darker and darker, and the sound of the snare drums was getting more and more urgent, and everyone tensed their nerves, as Liang Jun approached, everyone, including Lin Yuanqing, their faces became more and more hideous unconsciously, and the sound of breathing became more and more rapid, and suddenly, the drum beat stopped, followed by two shouts: "Rush!" and "Put!".

The Liang army began to press forward quickly, and a group of cavalry rushed to the front, and then was overturned by a man shot by a bow and arrow, but after all, the range of bows and arrows was limited, and the cavalry was very fast.

Everyone in the assault battalion looked at the battlefield under the mountain, everyone's eyes were full of bloodshots, like a beast quietly lurking in the grass waiting for the prey to approach, excitement, nervousness, and various emotions kept hitting everyone's heart, at this time, the assault battalion commander waved his hand and shouted: "Rush!" The first one rushed down, "Kill!" Everyone rushed forward one after another, and Zhao Youcai grabbed Lin Yuanqing's arm: "Xiaolin, you wait a minute... Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yuanqing shook off Zhao Youcai's hand, glanced back at him, and snorted coldly: "Coward!" turned around and rushed down, surpassing the battalion commander in a few steps and rushing to the front.

The army of Liang broke through six cities in a short period of time, its strength should not be underestimated, it reacted in an instant and lined up the defensive formation, Lin Yuanqing, who was in the forefront, slammed into the body of a Liang army, the two hugged each other and rolled forward, the weapon flew out of his hands, the two were thrown away a few steps away, Lin Yuanqing got up and looked at each other, a young face that looked almost the same age as him, but there was a trace of fierceness in his eyes, he stared at Lin Yuanqing viciously, which made Lin Yuanqing feel very uncomfortable, and for the first time in his heart he had the intention of retreating, before Lin Yuanqing could react, the other party had already pulled out a dagger from his waist, One turned over and stood up and pounced, Lin Yuanqing was still lying on the ground at the moment, but his mind was blank, his hands and feet kept crawling back, the other party pounced on him in an instant, raised the dagger and stabbed him to the heart, Lin Yuanqing instinctively used his left hand to block, the dagger easily pierced his palm, the pain made him regain his senses, the other party rode on his body, kept pressing the dagger down, and at the same time stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, revealing a cruel smile.

"No, I'm going to die if I go on like this!I'm going to do something!" At this life-and-death juncture, Lin Yuanqing saw the knife fall not far from him with his spare eyes, he suddenly didn't feel the pain, grabbed a handful of sand with his right hand, and sprinkled it on the other party's face, taking advantage of the moment when the other party blocked it with his hand, he used a force on his waist to bounce the other party out, he rolled around twice, grabbed the knife, turned over and stood up, held the knife and slashed towards the other party, kept chopping, chopping, Cut, the other party dodged while rubbing his eyes, although he was a veteran, he was blinded, and he was also slashed by Lin Yuanqing several times for a while.

At this time, one retreated, one chased, Lin Yuanqing had only one thought in his mind, "I want to live! I want to live!" went crazy and kept raising the knife to slash at Liang Bing in front of him, Liang Bing's feet suddenly slipped, and he fell to the ground on his back, Lin Yuanqing slashed towards his head, just when the knife was about to touch the top of the other party's head, he suddenly hesitated, and at this moment his brain also regained its calm: "This person looks about the same age as himself, his parents should be alive, maybe they have already married a wife and had children, and the family is also waiting for him to go back, right?" If you kill him, how sad the family will be. It was this hesitation that slowed him down, and then he suddenly heard a shout behind him: "Xiaolin!" , Lin Yuanqing turned his head and saw Zhao Youcai standing behind him with open arms, he looked at Lin Yuanqing, as if he wanted to say something, but a mouthful of blood spurted out, Lin Yuanqing looked down and saw a gun head appear on Zhao Youcai's chest, the bright red blood was falling down the tip of the gun drop by drop, Zhao Youcai fell to the ground softly like a puppet that had been pulled out of the line, Lin Yuanqing hugged him and sat on the ground, his brain became blank again, he only knew that he pressed his hand Zhao Youcai's bleeding wound, he wanted to call Zhao Youcai, but he opened his mouth but couldn't speak, his throat could only whine, and the spearman who stabbed Zhao Youcai pulled out his spear, stabbed Lin Yuanqing in the chest again, but Lin Yuanqing held Zhao Youcai motionlessly, just when the spear was stabbed immediately, the white light flashed, Hong Er solved the spearman with a knife, and scolded: "Damn!", dragged Lin Yuanqing and ran back, Lin Yuanqing hugged Zhao Youcai tightly, Zhao Youcai was bleeding in his mouth at this time, looked at Lin Yuanqing with lost eyes, and said vaguely: "Little... Xiaolin, you Zhao... Brother Zhao is afraid... I'm afraid it's not... No, Tao... Tao Tao to... In the future... Please... You take a picture with your grandfather... Took care of... ”

Lin Yuanqing hugged Zhao Youcai helplessly, tears kept falling down his chin, and he choked up and said: "I'm sorry! Brother Zhao! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'm sorry I hurt you! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Zhao Youcai smiled weakly and said, "It's... Actually, we... Our first day ... When the day comes, your grandfather will be... Just come and find ... He has come to me and he knows ... Your heart is angry ... High, persuade... I can't persuade you, say, let me... Okay ... Take care... You, you don't ... It's not small, it's time to marry a daughter-in-law... Good... Get by, ahem"

Zhao Youcai coughed up several mouthfuls of blood after finishing speaking, Lin Yuanqing still wanted to say something, Zhao Youcai waved his hand, took a deep breath, and said hard: "You don't have to... What to say, I know ... Know that you are fast ... I'm dying, I don't... No regrets... It's just that... I didn't see it... See... Tao Tao married, some legacy... Sorry, promise me ... Take care of it ... She, one... Definitely!" After speaking, he tilted his head and lost his breath.

Lin Yuanqing looked at Zhao Youcai's face blankly, hugging his body tightly, tears mixed with blood were dragged out of a long trace, Hong Er turned his head to look at him, and said loudly: "He's dead, let go quickly!"

Lin Yuanqing just gritted his teeth and shook his head, refusing to let go, Hong Er said angrily: "What's the use of you holding a dead man? I'm sorry, he'll avenge him! Kill Liang Jun!"

Lin Yuanqing still kept shaking his head, Hong Er stopped suddenly, threw him out with his hand, and scolded: "You can kill whatever you want, but the army has military law, and those who are cowardly in battle will not be killed! Either you pick up the knife and kill me back, or I will give you a good time directly, and let you go down now to accompany your eldest brother!"

Lin Yuanqing was still holding Zhao Youcai's corpse and shaking his head, Hong Er stepped forward and kicked him away, spitting: "Grass! useless waste!"

Lin Yuanqing was kicked so much that his eyes were full of stars, and he seemed to be out of breath with a thousand pounds of boulders in his chest, thinking in his mind, "It's good to die like this", and slowly closed his eyes when he thought about it...

Chinese New Year's Eve, Lin Yuanqing and Lao Zhang were preparing meals in the kitchen together, Zhao Youcai took Tao Tao to their house with New Year's goods to eat Chinese New Year's Eve, the family sat at the table while eating and chatting, happy and happy, Zhao Youcai suddenly raised his head and drank the glass of wine, his face was distorted, and said viciously to Lin Yuanqing: "Lin Yuanqing, I am so miserable! Originally, I planted crops well, but you pulled me over to join the army to fight, and I was killed by you, you returned my life!" Lin Yuanqing looked to his side in horror, and Zhao Taotao also stared at him deadly and said: " My father was killed by you, and you have to pay for his life!" After saying that, the father and daughter pounced on him with knives...

"Don't! Brother Zhao! Tao Tao! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Lin Yuanqing sat up suddenly, gasping for breath, beads of sweat wet his hair and clothes, and after a while, he realized that it was a dream just now, looked around, and found that he was lying in the barracks, surrounded by wounded soldiers, and there was a burst of pain in his palm, he raised his left hand, and found that it had been bandaged, and then he thought of Zhao Youcai again, and lay down, covering his face with his hands, tears slipped from his fingertips, and he choked silently.
