Everyone was listening quietly, Liu Yu's loud voice echoed in their ears, and the rapid speed of the words made their hearts beat faster, and their eyes were eager: "The monster and thief have invaded the capital, and the thief is powerful. Attack the strong with the weak, risk losing stones, charge into the formation, and overturn Zhoushan in a decisive battle. The monster bandits have more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, charging into the formation crazily, taking the lead, leading the king's army to counterattack, dozens of battles a day, and they are invincible."
"The Duke used an ambush to detour the two wings of the demon thieves. He used the central army as bait to lure the demon thieves to attack. Finally, they were surrounded by an iron wall. More than a hundred thousand demon thieves were wiped out in one day. The leader of the thieves was Lu Xun. Dozens of wounded people died heroically in battle. Before he died, Xu Daofu shouted with a knife in his hand that he would not stop killing the thieves. The Lord's loyalty and righteousness moved the heavens and the earth, and the sky also shed tears. The soldiers saw the Lord's loyalty and bravery, and all of them were moved. I am deeply inspired to defeat the demon thief and realize my long-cherished wish to prevent the demon thief from entering Jiankang."
Most people's eyes were filled with tears. Following Liu Yu's trembling voice at the end, there was even a sound of sobbing. People could no longer distinguish between reality and fantasy, and even mistook this virtual epitaph. , regarded it as something that really happened, and it wasn’t until Liu Yu read all the inscriptions and took a deep breath that everyone reacted.
Wang Hong wiped away his tears and said: "It's so touching and heroic. What I read about Marshal Liu made me almost believe it was true. Fortunately, it was just a lie. If Marshal Liu really sacrificed like this, it would be a shame."
Wang Hua silently took out a cloth handkerchief from his arms and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes: "It seems that Marshal Liu may really use this style of play to take the lead and actively attract the attacks of demon thieves to make up for his strength and The gap in military strength, he made this epitaph not only to boost morale and spirit, but also to reveal his future fighting style to the demon thief."
Zhang Shao shook his head: "If the demon thief knew that he would personally stand in front and lure the demon thief to attack, wouldn't he not be fooled?"
Wang Hua shook his head: "It is said in the epitaph that dozens of alliances can be made in one day and they are invincible. When the time comes, Marshal Liu will take the initiative to attack the demon thieves and directly attack the army. This method of attack is just like what he did in Junchuan and Feishui. As for the fighting method, if the demon thief is afraid of being surrounded and disperses his troops on both wings, then Marshal Liu can really defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. So even if this style of play is a bright card, it will be difficult for the demon thief to defend."
Wang Hong laughed: "So, there is nothing the demon thieves can do? Won't they lay a trap and ambush, waiting for Marshal Liu to attack?"
Zhang Shao's eyes lit up and he said: "I understand. If the demon thief wants to lay an ambush and focus on defense, he will have to spend time setting up camp and forming an array, so he is unlikely to take the initiative to attack the city. Marshal Liu does this. Aren’t you trying to delay time and let the demon thief switch from offense to defense?”
Wang Hua nodded with satisfaction and said: "What brother Maozong said is absolutely true. Marshal Liu probably didn't write this epitaph just to boost morale. He deliberately unleashed this style of play, and it also contains elements to confuse the opponent. Now time is against us." It is advantageous but disadvantageous to the demon thieves. If the Yan army returns, then we don’t need to be afraid of the demon thieves at all. We are afraid that they will take advantage of the fact that there are many soldiers and our army is not strong enough to attack forcefully."
Zhang Shao nodded: "Yes, when the demon thieves first came the day before yesterday, it might be because Marshal Liu had just returned. They didn't know the true situation in the city and did not dare to act rashly. Or they thought that the city had no fighting spirit and the court was going to give up. Don't leave the city, so they want to wait for us to give up on our own initiative. Now that Marshal Liu has stabilized the situation, Meng Pushe had a disagreement with him and committed suicide. They will think that the popular feeling in the city is floating, which is a good opportunity to attack the city, and the people lurking in the city Our accomplices will definitely stir up trouble and cooperate with them internally and externally. I predict that their large-scale attack will take place in the next day or two, maybe even today!"
"So, Marshal Liu wrote this epitaph, which expresses his determination to defend the country and the country with his own life rather than die in battle. It also expresses that he will take the initiative to attack the thieves by force, which will catch the demon thieves off guard. We may need to make major adjustments in terms of troop strength and tactics, and delay the attack for a few days. In this way, we will buy time for our army to deploy our defenses, which is a good delaying strategy."
Wang Hong sighed in admiration: "You are indeed a commander-in-chief. Even at such a time, you can use the art of war."
Wang Hua smiled slightly: "I now understand a little bit why Marshal Liu is the God of War in this world. Brother Maozong, please find an opportunity to recommend me today. I can't wait to serve for Marshal Liu. Uh, this epitaph is really well written. , I don’t know who made it.”
Zhang Shao looked at the steps in the distance and stood next to Liu Yu. A young man in his twenties, with a white face and a slight beard, and a handsome face: "I think there will be no other person except Xie Hui and Xie Xuanming." It’s two of us.”
Xie Hui stood up at this time and placed more than ten empty bowls on the big eucalyptus in front of Liu Yu. He directed six or seven servants and officials to take out several jars of Yanghe Daqu and poured them into the empty bowls. Inside, the aroma of wine overflows.
Beside Xie Hui, Wang Zhene raised his eyebrows and stood up first. He tore off the armor on his chest, then unbuttoned his bra, exposed his chest, picked up a dagger he carried with him, and He stabbed into the chest, and amid the exclamations of everyone, a more than inch gash was opened on his chest, and the dripping blood dripped into the wine bowl in front of him.
Zhu Lingshi, Shen Linzi and others also rushed to follow suit. For a time, the generals behind Liu Yu showed off their strong, steel-like pectoralis major muscles. On top of these toned and sunny chest muscles, From the blood holes, bright red blood flowed out and dripped into the wine bowl in front of them. As they walked back and forth, everyone's blood was mixed together.
Wang Zhen said loudly: "This epitaph was written with blood by our Marshal Liu himself. It shows his determination and will to defend the country with his own body and fight to the end. If the Marshal is like this, how can we stay behind? If it is a knife, An arrow on the commander's body will be a disadvantage for us in battle! We hereby swear not to retreat even a step, and to fight the demons and thieves until the end. Even if we die on the battlefield, we will not hesitate. This wine is our hard work. As a result, all brothers present here should drink this wine, as the ancestors of the Jin Dynasty bear witness, we are willing to live and die together, and we swear to destroy the demons and thieves!"
Zhu Lingshi picked up the wine in front of him and said loudly: "We live and die together, and we swear to defeat the demon thieves!" Then he drank it all in one gulp, threw the empty bowl in his hand to the ground and broke it, laughing loudly, "Happy ,happy!"
All the young generals followed suit. For a moment, the sound of the ocean bowl smashing to the ground mixed with their heroic oaths and laughter, making everyone present feel excited and excited. , I wish I could follow them and drink this blood wine with them.
