Chapter 648 Chapter 603 Beyond the Blade (1)

Chapter 648 Chapter [-] Beyond the Blade ([-])

In the early hours of the morning, the wind and snow gradually stopped.

In the ruins of the original town, a bonfire is burning.The sound of horses and people brought the breath of life back to this place temporarily.

Soldiers cook porridge in iron pots or washed helmets in front of the bonfire, and some people roast cold steamed buns or extravagant strips of meat over the flames. Soldiers with minor injuries are still standing by the fire Talk and laugh with people.On one side of the camp, the rescued and ragged prisoners huddled together in twos and threes.

"Here, blanket, take..."

Ning Yi walked among them, and together with others, handed them the few blankets that could keep warm.Most of these people who stayed in the Jurchen camp for several months were injured and suffered all kinds of abuse. In terms of image, it may be even more bleak than the most miserable beggars in many film and television dramas in later generations. It is unbearable .Occasionally there are a few cleaner ones, most of whom are women, and even have colorful clothes on their bodies, but most of their expressions are a little shy and dull. In the Jurchen camp, what kind of women will be treated if they can be dressed up a little? One can imagine the treatment.

In fact, as long as they are women among them, perhaps they have already suffered such treatment. However, some of them have been treated like this for a little longer, and they have a miserable image, which makes people hopeless and can be left to live on their own. Most of the self-destroying ones were because the Jurchens were a little lazy and didn't kill them.

Some of them saw Ning Yi handing things over, and subconsciously shrank back—they (or they) might still remember Ning Yi's behavior in the Jurchen camp not long ago, driving everyone regardless of their thoughts fleeing, which resulted in a large number of deaths later.

In such chaos, when the Jurchens were killed, some captives who had been imprisoned for a long time would subconsciously kneel down and surrender.Ning Yi and the others hid among them and attacked those Jurchens, and then those who were actually slaughtered were naturally these released captives. Relatively speaking, they were more like human shields, covering the More than 100 people who entered the camp to burn food carried out assassination and attacks on the Jurchens.As a result, many people still have lingering fears about the cold-bloodedness of Ning Yi and others.

But of course, apart from the fact that several seriously injured people were still dying in the cold weather, being able to escape was naturally a good thing.Even if he has lingering fears, he will not accuse Ning Yi at this time, and Ning Yi, of course, will not defend himself.

Not long after, some people began to bring gruel and baked steamed buns. Since there were not enough bowls, the porridge had to be eaten with broken tiles and tiles that had been washed.

With these things to warm my stomach, the ruins of the town became more peaceful under the reflection of the bonfire.

There are also a small group of people who are still arranging horses on the edge of the town at this time, and building fortifications according to the terrain - although they have just won a victory, a large number of high-quality scouts are also active around, constantly monitoring the movements of the Jurchens, But the possibility of the opponent's surprise attack still needs to be guarded against.

"... At that time, I fell off the horse, and I was really a little panicked, but even if those golden dogs rushed over, I had armor on me. I stabbed, bang, I didn't get in... Damn it, I'll kill it He, he actually dared to resist..."

In the snow behind the horse rejection, figures of a dozen people were digging a hole, and voices of voices could be heard at the same time.

Most of the soldiers in the camp were in the same situation at this time. They talked about the battle without shouting, but at this time, there was an air of confidence that was full of confidence in the whole camp. , it is hard to bear and can be steadfast.

Ning Yi, Hong Ti, Qin Shaoqian and others also asked about the arrangements for various matters, and there were also many trivial matters that others wanted to ask them.At this time, the surrounding sky was still dark, and after all the arrangements had been made, someone brought some wine over. Although it hadn't started to be distributed yet, the smell of the wine made the atmosphere more lively.Ning Yi's voice sounded in front of the camp: "I have a few words to say."

The darkest sky before dawn is also the most quiet and lonely, and the wind and snow have stopped. After Ning Yi's voice sounded, thousands of people quickly quieted down, consciously watching the small group of gravel walking in the middle of the ruins figure.

Ning Yi had a smile on his face.

"Are you excited? I am also very excited. When I set off, I didn't know whether I was going to die in today's battle, or I could really do something. In the end, we really did it. That army, known as They are invincible and the strongest in the world. During the few months they were in Bianliang, they defeated a total of more than 30 of us. Today! Our first official attack, teach them a lesson! We defeated 1 of them! In front of them Their faces burned their food! We slapped them hard, which is something no one can do!" Ning Yi raised his hand with a smile, "I told myself in my heart that we are invincible. "

Everyone laughed.

"So after a little quiet, I am also very happy. The news has passed to the village and Bianliang. They must be happier. There will be tens of thousands of people happy for us. Someone asked me just now if I want to celebrate. Indeed, I am going to They are all good wines, enough for you to drink. But these two barrels of wine are not for you to celebrate."

Ning Yi's face became a little serious, his words paused, and the soldiers below also subconsciously sat up straight.At present, most of these people come from Luliang and Dulonggang. Ning Yi's prestige is beyond doubt. When he speaks seriously, no one dares to ignore or not listen.

"We are facing the invincible Jurchens. There are 5 people attacking Bianliang, and there are more than 3 people under Guo Yaoshi's command. There are more than 1 people in the post. If they hadn’t put food in the first place and fought regardless of the consequences, we would have been unable to retreat. Compared with the quality of other armies, you will think that this is very powerful and worthy of boasting, but If that's the case, you're all going to die here—"

"Are you strong enough? Not enough! Is your record brilliant enough? Not enough! This is just a small warm-up battle, compared to what you will face next, it is nothing. Today we burned their Liang, slapped them, tomorrow they will come back even more fiercely, look at the sky around you, in those places you can't see, the wounded wolves are waiting to tear you apart!"

Ning Yi spread his hands: "The piece in front of you is the stage where the strongest people in the world can stand up. Life and death confrontation! You die and I live! Do everything you can! As long as you can be a little stronger, then you will definitely You can't compare to others, because your enemies are the same, the most ruthless and powerful people in this world! Their only purpose is to kill you no matter what method they use! With hands, feet, Use knives and guns, use their teeth, bite you to death!"

"What is strength? When you are seriously injured, as long as you have a little strength, you have to grit your teeth and stand, continue to do things, and if you can survive, you will be stronger. When you win a battle, you can't With the slightest slack, you don’t leave any weakness for your enemy. If you don’t have any weakness at any time, you will be a little bit stronger! When you are tired, you can support your body and endure it better than them. When you are in pain, you can clench your teeth , more tolerant than them! You are the most powerful person when you use all your potential, because in this world, you have to know that what you can do, there must be someone among your enemies who can do it arrive!"

"In the past... some people did things to me, saying that I was not easy to get along with, because I was too strict and harsh on myself, and I didn't even demand them with the same standards I demanded of myself. But... when will the world be ruled by the weak? Come to set the standard! When will the weak dare to blame the strong with confidence! I can understand the shortcomings of all people. I like pleasure-seeking, idleness, and dog-fighting. I like this in the peaceful world. But in front of us, we have no room for this. If someone I don't understand, go and see the people we rescued today...our compatriots."

"I don't want to expose people's scars, but this is the future of the losers! There is no reason to say! If you lose, your parents, wives and children will encounter such things. They will be treated like dogs and prostitutes. Children will be thrown into the fire, you scold them, you cry, you say they are not human, and they have no effect! There is no reason! The only thing you can do is to make yourself stronger, stronger! Don't say that there are 100 Jurchens, even if there are 1000, defeating them is the only way out! Otherwise, you will end up in the same way! When you forget that you will end up, just watch them..."

"And they will say that I expose people's pain, inhumane, they are crying..." Ning Yi pointed in the direction of the rescued more than 1000 people, but there were many people crying, " But here, I don't want to show my humanity, I just want to tell you, what are you facing, yes! Many of you have been treated harshly! You are wronged, want to cry, and want someone to comfort you! I know it all, but I don’t give you these things! Let me tell you, you were beaten, scolded, chopped, burned, and raped! It’s not going to end like this. We lost, and you will experience it again. I will do the same thing to you intensified! Is it useful to cry? After we left, do you know what happened to the other survivors? The other people who did not dare to resist, or those who ran late, were all killed. Burned alive!"

"Many of you are women, and even have children. Some of you have broken hands, some have broken bones, and you are still not well. You are tired and hungry, and you find it difficult to stand up and walk. You Having encountered so many things, some people must feel that they want to die when I say this now, and it’s okay to die. But there is no way, it makes no sense. If you don’t die, what is the only thing you can do? Just pick up the knife, Zhang Open your mouth, chop with your knives, bite with your mouth, and eat those Jurchens for me! Here, it is meaningless to take back even the words "I tried my best"! Because the future only Both! Die! Or your enemies die—"

Ning Yi's voice stopped for a while, and the echoes oscillated in the dark sky.

"But let me tell you, the Jurchens are not that powerful. You can already defeat them today. What you do is very simple, that is, defeat them every time. Don't compare yourself with the weak, don't say you tried your best, and don't just say how good you are." Enough is enough, what you are going to face next is hell, here, any weak thoughts will not be accepted! Some people said today that if we burn the food and grass of the Jurchens, the Jurchens will attack the city more violently, but don’t they If it gets more violent, don't we burn it!?"

"We burned their food, and they attacked the city even harder. The city can only be defended. They can only defend it. There is no reason to say it! You are facing a hundred obstacles in front of you. If you can't pass one, you will die! Victory is Such a harsh thing! But now that we have our first victory, and we have tried their qualities, the Jurchens are not invincible monsters. Since they are not monsters, we can train ourselves to become what they can't imagine monster!"

"They burned a lot of food and grass, maybe they are crying now." Ning Yi pointed casually and said a witty remark. In normal times, people would probably laugh, but at this time, everyone was looking at him without laughing. , "Even if you don't cry, it's human to be frustrated by failure. It seems to be human to celebrate because of victory. I'll tell you frankly, I have a lot of money. One day in the future, you can celebrate however you want, the best Women, the best wine and meat, everything is available, but I believe that when you are qualified to enjoy these things, the death of the enemy is the best gift you can get. As the saying goes, at that time, you can use Drinking from their skulls! Of course, I won't allow you to do this, it's disgusting..."

"There is no celebration today." Ning Yi said, "Everyone is only allowed one cup of wine, so that you can warm up and have a good rest. But your vigilance is not allowed to relax for a moment! When you wake up, you must compare Stronger now! You can only be stronger than you are now! Then, let your enemies tremble and let them die. And you live."

"...I'm done." Ning Yi said.

The camp was chilling and quiet. Someone stood up, almost all the soldiers stood up, their eyes were burning red, and it was unclear whether they were moved or instigated.

"Yes—" the soldiers from Luliang Mountain in front shouted, with veins popping up on their foreheads.The next moment, the same voice suddenly sounded like a sea tide. The voice seemed to be answering Ning Yi's lecture, but it was more like a wave of anger suffocated in everyone's hearts. With this small town as the center, there was an instant shock. The entire mountain and snow ridge was covered, which was a more dignified coercion than murderous aura.On the trees, the snow fell, and the unknown scout reined in the horse in the dark, circling in confusion and panic, not knowing what happened there.

Ning Yi walked out of the crowd, followed by Zhu Biao, Tian Donghan, Chen Tuozi and others. This night, it may be difficult for everyone to calm down in their hearts, but what this kind of upsurge brings is not restlessness, but indescribable strength and dignified.Ning Yi went to the small room that had been tidied up. After a while, Hong Ti also came over. He hugged her and fell asleep on the blanket on the floor.

Except for the person in charge of patrolling and guarding, everyone else fell into a deep sleep afterwards.And the East is about to light up.

When they wake up, they will be stronger people.

In the capital, the first round of publicity has been released under Qin Yuyuan's behest. Many insiders already know about the battle at Moutuogang last night, and some people are still confirming the news through their own channels.

In the lobby of the Ministry of War, Qin Yuyuan, who had been busy for another night, just packed up his things and prepared to rest. Next to him, Li Gang who hurried over to chat with him for a while was already full of tiredness.

"After daybreak, it will only be more difficult." Qin Yuyuan arched his hands, "Li Xiang, it's good to have a rest."

"Yes, what I'm talking about is that I have to... sleep for an hour or two. It's time to rest for a while before I can fight the golden dog."

As the old man spoke, he laughed again. Ever since he got the news, he was overjoyed, and his steps were much faster than before.The rear of the Ministry of War had prepared a room for them to rest. When they went to the room, they were served by servants. Qin Yuyuan fell asleep when he touched the bed. Li Gang lit the candles and opened the window to see the dark sky outside. He laughed again. Laughing, before I knew it, tears rolled down from my wrinkled eyes.

Li Gang has a violent and loyal temperament, and he has not known the feeling of tears for many years when he reached the top of the phase.There are many opinions from the outside world about his ability, but his patriotic heart is extremely blazing.In the past few years, he has promoted various things, and every time he is hindered, the court is chaotic, and the military affairs are corrupt. He wants to cheer up the matter, but how much can he do?This time when the Jurchen attacked the city, he organized a resolute defense and was even ready to die here. However, the Jurchen was strong and pressed down like Mount Tai. He did not regret his death, but he had never seen hope.

Only at this moment, he suddenly felt that in the pressure of the past few days, in the thick darkness accumulated by a lot of life and death, and blood, he could finally see a little bit of light and hope.

He took a deep breath, walked back and forth in the room twice, and then quickly went to bed to let himself fall asleep.

He has to rest quickly. If he can't rest well, how can he die generously...

In the Jurchen camp, the bonfire was burning, and Zong Wang put his hands behind his back, looking at the huge city in front of him.

Liu Yanzong followed behind, also looking at the city.

With the development of the war to such a situation, it was a surprise that the camp was attacked last night. However, it was not a big deal for these Jurchen generals who had experienced many battles.

"...Yan Zong... If we can't destroy this city, what face do we have to go back?"

——In a sense, it just deepened Zongwang's determination to break the city.

Liu Yanzong's eyes were indifferent, and he also had the same thought in his heart.

Before coming, they felt that Wu Chao would probably have some background, so they were still cautious.Later, the army of the Wu Dynasty was defeated, and they felt that they were simply a nest of rabbits and had no combat power.Now, it can be regarded as being scratched by a rabbit.

unlucky……

You have to kill more of these Wu Dynasty talents!Thoroughly... Kill them so much that they dare not resist!

The sound of cock crowing has already sounded, in the warm room of the building and the courtyard behind.

Shishi was lying on the bed, covered with a quilt, and was sleeping deeply. Under the quilt, her white slender feet and ankles tied with red ribbons were exposed.

When she opened her eyes, she felt the strange restlessness outside the room...
