The crooked poem says: "
In the evening of autumn, the army marches thousands of miles away, and the Hange prisoner formation moves through the border towns.
In his year, he painted Ling Yan Que, White Bones and Wind and Sand, but it has not yet been named. "
The gate of the border city opened wide, a golden gun shot through the enemy formation, and the horse galloped out. Behind him, dozens of old soldiers were accompanying him, their swords and guns in their hands were full of blood, and they were still eager to kill.
General Qin's golden mask reflected the sun's rays, his bright red cloak rustled, and his precious horse leapt into the air, rushing into the encirclement of the Han army.
"kill!"
The soldiers around him were brave and fearless, but they could not stop General Qin. The corpses lay horizontally behind him, blood flowed into rivers, and they were quickly filled with living people.
Taking the lead, the soldiers behind him could no longer catch up. They were surrounded by Han troops and could not escape.
Cong Zheng chopped down one person and gasped for air. Ye Ling could see the panic in his eyes, and couldn't help but comfort him: "Don't panic, just do normal things."
Cong Zheng didn't dare to slack off. They were already trapped in a tight siege. The companions around him kept falling to the ground and dying, being chopped up and made into meat sauce. They want to delay it until General Qin takes the enemy general's head.
Seeing that he was only a few steps away, the Han army general clenched his sword in his hand, and the guards in front of him rushed forward, but they only became the target of the gun.
General Qin broke through the obstacles and faced the Han general. He couldn't help but stab him with his gun.
The Han army general smiled coldly, turned his horse and left. While chasing, General Qin's horse stumbled and fell into a deep pit.
The general of the Han army laughed loudly and said: "I have long heard that there is a golden-faced young general in this city, but taking the enemy general's head out of ten thousand troops is truly a well-deserved reputation! It's a pity that today is the day you die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his heart suddenly trembled. A wooden sword flew out of thin air in front of him. Before he could dodge, he was pierced through the throat and died.
In the Han army formation, a young man in white clothes held an iron sword in his hand, broke through the siege, rushed to the edge of the pit, and said: "General Qin, I wonder how many altars of burning clouds should I be invited to this time?"
There was a sound of war horses neighing, and Baoju jumped out of the pit with General Qin and stood beside Ye Ling.
The surrounding Han troops did not dare to step forward and slowly retreated, leaving an open space.
General Qin shouted: "Your general is dead, why don't you retreat quickly? Don't wait for me to drive you all out!"
As soon as this statement came out, a Han army deputy general gritted his teeth and ordered his men to take the body of the general and send an order to withdraw.
As soon as the Han army retreated, the soldiers on the city wall shouted long live, and the name of General Qin resounded in the sky.
Ye Ling frowned and asked, "Why not take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"
General Qin shook his head and pointed at the Han army's formation: "Zhuge Ce, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, used his troops like a god, advancing and retreating with control. Even when the Han army retreated, it was in a tight formation and could not be pursued."
Hearing this, Ye Ling stopped talking and returned to the city with General Qin. It was night, the soldiers were eating and drinking, and they were extremely happy.
Cong Zheng was drunk and pulled Ye Ling and said, "If it weren't for brother Chen, I would have died outside the city. I didn't say anything. From now on, you are my brother. I will take you home to meet your sister-in-law!"
Ye Ling smiled bitterly, and finally settled Cong Zheng, then left the camp and walked up to the city wall. Sure enough, he saw General Qin sitting on the top of the wall, drinking wine.
Ye Ling stepped forward and asked, "Why not have fun with everyone?"
"The border towns are constantly being conquered," General Qin replied: "The people who laugh and rejoice with you today may be separated from each other tomorrow. I have seen too much and suffered too much, and I no longer want to touch it again."
Hearing this, Ye Ling remained silent and sat next to General Qin. He took the wine jar she handed him, drank a sip, and said with a sigh of relief: "If there had been no war, this desert frontier wouldn't be such a beautiful sight. .”
General Qin said: "If it were as you said, without the war, no one would lament the scenery of the border town. Once you get it, you won't cherish it. Only what people want is beautiful. That's why there are continuous conquests. , war is inevitable.”
"How long has the General been here?"
"It's just ten years."
"How many decades are there in this world?"
"Because life in this world is short, every ten years is precious." After saying this, General Qin looked at Ye Ling: "Has a monk like you ever cherished ten years?"
"Maybe," Ye Ling said with a smile, "I have been on the road for less than ten years, and now I have returned to the world again. It's just a big dream, nothing more than that."
General Qin said: "In that case, after drinking this altar, you can leave. Tomorrow, this city will be lost, and you don't need to be buried with me."
Ye Ling also guessed that this lonely city should have been abandoned long ago. It was probably only because of General Qin that it was not abandoned. If not, the Han troops would be pressing down on the territory, and reinforcements should have been dispatched long ago.
But Ye Ling asked instead: "Why don't we leave together?"
General Qin didn't answer, so Ye Ling asked: "What nostalgia do you have?"
General Qin turned and left: "The bones of my comrades are all buried here. We swore that we would live and die with this city and never betray our trust!"
Watching General Qin leave, Ye Ling turned around, took a sip of wine, and smiled helplessly: "It turns out that women can be so stubborn, just like her!"
…………
The morning glow filled the sky, and when General Qin walked up the city wall again, he saw Ye Ling still sitting there.
"Today we will see the truth," Ye Ling pointed to the outside of the city without looking back: "The whole sky is filled with murderous intent, and the city will be destroyed in just a matter of seconds. No matter how brave you are, there is nothing you can do about it this time."
General Qin stepped forward without taking it seriously and said: "Yesterday I was wounded and died in the city, and it was only because of you that I lived one more day. There is no need to feel sad if I die today."
"Perhaps I will be sad," Ye Ling sighed: "I have seen friends die in front of me and there is nothing I can do. Do you want me to repay the heartache?"
General Qin was slightly startled, then said coldly: "We have only known each other for a few days, so you and I can't be considered friends."
"We've known each other for a few days, and I've saved you twice. Shouldn't I be responsible for your current life?"
"It was not my wish for you to save me," General Qin said in a cold tone, "I have a clear conscience and I owe nothing!"
After saying this, without waiting for Ye Ling to say anything, she shouted and waved, and the soldiers in the city went about their duties and prepared to meet the enemy.
Ye Ling looked outside the city. The Han army was well-organized and murderous. They were more courageous than yesterday.
The huge rocks, arrow feathers and other objects in the city are almost exhausted, and there is no way to hold on. The only way to wait for these soldiers is death.
General Qin looked at the military formation outside the city, turned to General Zhang and said: "Today's battle will involve death but not life. If there is anyone who is greedy for life and afraid of death, you can leave!"
General Zhang knelt down on one knee, cupped his hands and said: "We will follow General and will not retreat even if we die!"
"I will not retreat even if I die!"
All the soldiers echoed loudly and regarded death as home.
"Okay!" General Qin led everyone down the city, got on his horse, and shouted: "Follow me and charge into the battle for the last time!"
Under the banner of the Han military commander, there was a carriage parked, with a young man sitting high on it. He was dressed in rich clothes and had a jade belt, but he did not look like a general leading an army. There is warm wine and fragrant tea in front of them, but they are also leisurely and contented in front of the two military formations.
Seeing that the city gate was wide open, hundreds of soldiers, even though General Qin had come out of the city, lined up to face him from afar.
A general of the Han army came in front of the carriage, cupped his hands and said: "General, please look, the Daqian defenders are going to make a last-ditch resistance!"
The young man picked up the wine glass, smiled slightly and said: "I have long heard that there is a golden-faced and golden-gun General Qin in this city, and today I saw that he is indeed well-deserved. Send an order to capture the enemy general alive, and leave no remaining soldiers behind!"
"Got the order!"
War drums beat and horns sound. The two armies faced each other, and although their strength was vastly different, their momentum also refused to give way to each other.
Ye Ling stood beside Cong Zheng. Cong Zheng smiled with relief and said, "Brother Chen, please leave quickly. Help me go to Yahe Town outside Fenghai City in Luzhou to find your sister-in-law. Tell her that I can't go back and let her find her." Remarry a good family. If there is an afterlife, I will see her again and be a long-term couple!"
Ye Ling patted Cong Zheng on the shoulder: "Don't talk about life and death until the last moment!"
"rush!"
General Qin took the lead, followed by General Zhang, and Daqian troops took the lead in launching the attack.
The Han army had the upper hand. The army came to cover up and kill them, and instantly overwhelmed the large number of soldiers and horses.
General Qin waved his spear, and the golden light was dazzling, attracting most people's attention. However, because the general had an order, he could only be captured alive, leaving the Han army helpless.
When the deputy general of the Han army saw him, he rode his horse in front of the handsome chariot and said, "General, that enemy general is very good. Ordinary soldiers may not be able to defeat him!"
The young man suddenly became interested, raised his eyes to look around, and immediately stood up and said: "Wait until I get her!"
As soon as he finished speaking, I saw him walking out of the canopy, flying into the air, and in a blink of an eye he was in front of General Qin, smiling and saying: "General, you are brave, why don't you serve me as a big man, I will give up my position!"
General Qin didn't answer and stabbed him with his spear, but the young man easily dodged it.
The young man said helplessly: "A generation of women is abandoned in an isolated city. A person from a large family does not know how to show mercy to women. It really makes me angry."
As soon as these words came out, General Qin's marksmanship seemed to be in panic. The young man laughed and said, "It seems that the general's soldiers don't know that the general is a daughter!"
General Qin's face was covered by a mask, and his expression could not be seen, but his marksmanship was getting faster and faster, and he was actually trying to kill the young man with every move.
"It's really interesting, but I have the general's order and I really can't fight. Why don't we just capture General Qin, and let's have a good chat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the young man waved his sleeves, and a wave of Taoism rose into the sky. He shot a sleeve arrow from his sleeve and shot straight at General Qin.
General Qin thrust his spear at him, but was knocked away by the arrows in his sleeves. He was unable to dodge and was about to be executed.
At this moment, Ye Ling stepped in front of General Qin, his wooden sword showing its sharp edge, breaking through the sleeves and arrows. Ye Ling straightened up and let the sleeve arrow pierce into his shoulder, causing blood to splatter.
Ye Ling fell in front of General Qin, smiled slightly and said: "Your life... I have left it in this city for you... now... you can leave..."
"Chen Feng!"
General Qin shouted loudly, suddenly held Ye Ling in front of him, turned his horse's head and said: "The whole army retreats!"
After saying this, I saw her legs exerting force, she stepped off the divine horse and jumped up, jumping several feet away, and came to the middle of the Daqian soldiers.
General Qin said: "I will open the way myself. General Zhang will break up and rush out together!"
Before he finished speaking, General Qin waved his spear and opened a bloody path. The soldiers behind him rejoiced and followed closely, breaking through the encirclement.
Cong Zheng looked at Ye Ling who fell on General Qin's horse, and couldn't help but feel: "Brother Chen, you are right, you will never talk about life or death until the last moment!"
When only a few dozen people in Daqian escaped from the siege, the young man did not give any orders to chase them. He just watched them leave, smiled and said to himself: "It's really interesting!"
