Early winter is approaching, and there is no such heavy snowfall at this time. However, the sun has begun to appear in Zhuluping, which has been cold for several days. Although there is no warmth at all, it can shine on this huge cement city. A little brighter.
Inside Li Xian's military camp.
Li Xianyou lay leisurely on the homemade rocking chair and read a book. The chair creaked from time to time, and he was really afraid that the chair would be broken by that time.
Fu Qian quickly walked into the camp, raised his hands and said, "Captain, if Lu Xun has withdrawn, he should have gone to Yiling."
Li Xian finally put down the book in his hand, his face became serious, but he still lay down, closed his eyes, and after a while, he slowly opened them and said: "Qian'er, inform the whole army to be ready for battle, we will be there soon There is going to be a fierce battle, and in addition, tell all the soldiers to gather at the North Gate at noon today."
"Yes! I obey the governor's order!" Fu Qian handed over his hand and left.
Watching Fu Qian's leaving figure, Li Xian finally sat up straight, but kept staring ahead. This moment was too long, so long that he had almost forgotten the mountain of corpses and sea of blood that day, and had almost forgotten that day. The sun screamed to kill Zhentian, and he almost forgot how he climbed out of Yiling Purgatory step by step...
Noon, the north gate of the Nameless Cement City.
A concrete platform about three meters high has been cast here. It doesn't look that tall, because the platform is not wide and can only accommodate about three people. The three Shu Han armies led by Li Xian lined up in front of the high platform and waited quietly.
Finally, Li Xian rode his own flying rainbow horse and passed by the three armies and came to the high platform. He dismounted and climbed onto the high platform.
Li Xian did not choose to speak when he came up. Instead, he stared at the soldiers below. When he collided with each gaze, he seemed to be able to feel the fierceness and passion in the soldiers' eyes, as well as their scorn for the world. A sense of arrogance.
Li Xian scanned the field again, but what responded to him was the silence, still quiet, so quiet that he could almost hear the heartbeat of everyone, and could feel the determination hidden in the silence of every person and horse. and fighting spirit.
After a long while, Li Xian finally spoke.
"Soldiers of the Han Dynasty, I actually have nothing to say this time. However, the next battle will be a battle related to the fate of the Han Dynasty. It will be an unprecedented and unprecedented battle!"
Li Xian paused and looked at the crowd below again.
"So, this time, no matter whether you still have the fighting spirit or whether you still have the ideal of reviving the great nation as before, we must go on this road. I, Li Xian, swear here with my heart!" Li Xian slowly raised his right hand, clenched it into an empty fist and placed it on the left side of his chest, "I will light the way for you to move forward, and I am your forerunner!"
"Big man! Big man! Big man!"
The audience was buzzing with voices, and the atmosphere almost reached its peak at this moment.
Li Xian raised his hand to signal to stop, and then said: "I know that we lost Changsha. It was the soldiers who paid for it with their lives. If you don't accept it, I have never accepted it in my heart. To tell you the truth, I have sent Wang Rui took Changsha, Meng took Guiyang, Luo Xian took the public security, and now Lu Xun is a trapped beast. As long as we, as long as we give him the last blow and defeat him, we can return to Jingzhou. !”
There was another uproar in the audience, and the passionate desire in the eyes of the soldiers took another step forward.
At this moment, Li Xian clapped his hands, and then, a carriage dragged a huge stone tablet behind it, and the soldiers who were close could see that it was almost covered with densely packed names.
"Fellow soldiers! This monument was specially engraved by the governor. On it are the names of all the soldiers who died in the previous battles. I have engraved each one. As for the heroes whose names cannot be found, The governor has engraved the name of the unknown hero on it. As for the fallen soldiers, their families will receive ten years of military pay as compensation! And I want this monument to stand forever in the center of this cement city!"
There was a complete explosion below the stage, and many soldiers had already begun to cry. In their impression, isn't it true that only princes and nobles can have honor and mourning after death? When will unknown soldiers like us who fight our lives in front of the battle have the opportunity to be remembered by others, and if they die in battle, they will receive compensation, and there will be no worries at all.
"The rest of the time, I, Commander-in-Chief, will be left to the soldiers. You don't need to be so serious. This is not a military parade. You can do whatever you want. Those soldiers who are willing to come on stage, please come up and tell us why you are fighting. !Is anyone coming on stage!"
Li Xian glanced down, and finally his eyes fell on Fu Qian. Fu Qian understood and immediately shouted in the crowd: "The end will come!"
"Come up!"
Fu Qian trotted all the way and climbed to the high platform. Looking at the tens of thousands of people under the stage, he was still a little nervous. Then he looked at Li Xian standing aside and calmed down. Then he slowly faced the audience He said: "Fellow soldiers, most of you must know me. I am Fu Qian, the direct disciple of the Governor. Many people may envy me, but before that, my life was not happy.
When I was four years old, my father died in the war. I have never seen my father since I was born. In my impression, he seemed to be always at war and could never return home. I remember one time , he went home for three days, and later I realized that it was the longest time he spent with me. Later, I remember that day, it was raining heavily, and my father was about to go on an expedition again. I cried bitterly and held the door open, and kept crying. I want my father, I want my father, but my father just gave me a resolute look and told me that after he finished this battle, he would come back and catch frogs in the fields with me, and fly kites on Jinping Mountain together... ...
As a result...as a result...my father...never came back..."
Fu Qian still wanted to go on, but he was already choked with tears. He still wanted to pronounce the words, but was blocked by secretions.
Li Xian gently touched Fu Qian's helmet and said, "Good boy..."
There was a lot of cheering in the audience.
"I have long said that Wu Gou is not a good thing!"
"That's right! General Fu sacrificed his life to cut off Cai Cai back then!"
"Without General Fu, we wouldn't be where we are today!"
...
"Good boy, if we win this game, we can take General Fu home. Don't cry." Li Xian looked at Fu Qian on the stage with tears in his eyes.
Fu Qian nodded and said, "Yes."
"Next person!"
"Me me me me!"
"Come up!"
Then a thin man came up, speaking with a fluent Sichuan and Chongqing accent, and said: "Brothers, I am a fellow villager of Liu Laosan. To be honest, when it comes to Liu Laosan, some people know him, but it is impossible for our department to know him." I don’t know, he is the hero who petitioned to blow up the Changsha city wall. I have a story. I had a fight with him before because of some trivial matters, but now that he is here, I feel that he is the upright man... ..”
"We also have heroes! I'll come!"
.......
All the officers and men came up one at a time. Li Xian also told everyone to sit on the ground and listen. He also took out all the food left in the camp and ate while listening. In terms of supply, it should not be enough for three days. Now that no food has arrived for three days, it is obvious that Yiling must have been destroyed. Zong Yu is now very likely to be waiting for help in Shimen Mountain.
...
Chengdu Li Mansion.
"This kid is really worrying. He was good at killing and subduing soldiers a few days ago, and I have tried to find a way to remedy him. Now he has written a letter back saying that he may not be able to defeat him. Who is Lu Xun? It is not normal for him to be defeated. What's the matter? I have to write a letter back, which makes the whole family panic." Li Jun hit the ground with his crutch with an annoyed look on his face.
"Oh, sir, please calm down. Your son is fighting in the war, and he is already worried, but you still get angry like this."
"Getting angry? If I didn't get angry, my whole family would be killed by him. What is he? He is the governor of Yong'an. He is used to defend Soochow. It is understandable that you fight to defend the city. Now you have gone to Jingnan. What do you want to do? Do you want to take Jingzhou and become the second Guan Yu?" Li Jun was not angry at first, but telling Li this made him even more angry.
"Isn't it great to be Mr. Guan?" Mrs. Li muttered.
"Fart! The late emperor and Mr. Guan were close friends for eight years, and they were one king and a minister, so Jingzhou can be handed over to Mr. Guan with confidence and boldness. What is your son? What is he? I ask you, if you take Jingzhou, who can control him? He is running If you want to die, you have to find a way to fill the hole for him. Oh, this karma!" Li Jun quickly picked up a towel and held his forehead, saying: "That's all, I can't explain it to you."
"Aren't we all in Chengdu? Can't we just go and brush our faces in front of His Majesty like we did last time?" asked Li.
"Today is different from the past. If we win this battle, defeat Lu Xun, and successfully encircle and suppress all the main forces of Soochow, I am afraid that the trap in Weiyang Palace will have been laid behind him early, and the Li family will be in danger. If we lose, your Majesty will convict you and add benefits." If the state nobles criticize me, my son will be in danger, I will fill holes for this guy everywhere, damn it."
"Don't scold me nonsense. If you have the ability, why don't you give birth?" Li rolled her eyes.
Li Jun still wanted to speak, but was choked back by a word. He shook his head and sighed.
"I don't think so. Even if Soochow is crippled, isn't there still Cao Rui in the north? That one is the big one. Our son is so good at fighting, I guess His Majesty won't be able to part with it." Mrs. Li rubbed the clothes in the bucket. , said while saying.
Li Jun's eyes lit up when he heard this: "When did you have such insight?"
"There's no reason to put away the bucket before washing the clothes." Ms. Li still answered casually.
