son-in-law

Chapter 975 A Song of Ice and Fire ([-])
"...Yu Mingzhou... I have known each other since childhood."

The afternoon sun came in through the window, and the February air was still a little cool.In Wanyan Qingjue's question, the young man in front of him looked at his fingers on the table, recalled and spoke calmly.

"The first time I met him was in the ninth year of Jinghan, the winter when I was five years old... My Zuo family is a big family that has passed down literature from generation to generation. There was an in-law in the Zuo family, and Yu Mingzhou was five years old that year. He was smart since he was a child, and Yu Shibo took him to the door, hoping to worship under my Zuo family, specializing in literary affairs..."

"Actually, the Wu Dynasty was still prosperous. The Jin Kingdom's attack on Liao was about to succeed, and the voice of the Wu Dynasty's northern expedition was blazing. Seeing that Yu Mingzhou was quite clever, his uncle persuaded him to study both civil and military, and study literature in Zuo's private school. Later, I invited several famous military generals in the dynasty to teach martial arts and strategies, and I also had several children from my Zuo family who followed me, and I was one of them. Over time, I became friends with Yu Mingzhou..."

"I came from a family of military generals in Mingzhou. I am healthy, but I have a peaceful temperament. I came from the Zuo family. Although I am not the main line, when I was young, I regarded myself very highly..."

In the room, in Zuo Wenhuai's slow narration, Wanyan Qingjue gradually pieced together the ins and outs of the whole thing.Of course, many things were different from what he had seen before. For example, the Yu Mingzhou he saw was a young general with a violent temperament and a bad temper. After he was defeated by Chen Fan for the first time, he shouted that he wanted to kill him. In everything about the Guanghua Xia Army, there is no trace of a peaceful attitude.

In front of him, the young man named Zuo Wenhuai had oily head and powdered noodles, his eyes were calm, and he looked like a rabbit.Except for the punch when they met, there is no trace of "high self-esteem" in childhood.

This is a southern story that Wanyan Qingjue has never heard before.

In the ninth year of Jinghan, two five-year-old boys met in Zuo's house. Later, due to their complementary personalities, they became good friends. Zuo Wenhuai was arrogant and arrogant, and was often the dominant one among the pair of good friends. Zhou came from a family of military commanders, with a relatively soft temperament. In many things, he was always able to accommodate Zuo Wenhuai.

There were not many new ideas about things in childhood, one skipped class in private school, one was punished, and one fought with children of the same age.At that time, Zuo Duanyou probably realized that a certain crisis was coming. For this group of children, they were more required to practice martial arts, be familiar with military strategy, and be familiar with formation.

There is an atmosphere under the military commander's gate. Apart from the fights and fights, by the age of seven or eight, a group of proud and arrogant sons of the heavens have been able to initially understand the meaning of a military commander.In the space of healing after fights, a group of children are also determined to revitalize the Wu Dynasty, recover Youyan, and become Wei Qing and Huo Qubing who can sweep the world for the Wu Dynasty.

Jing Han Dynasty passed, and when Jing Ping's shame came, the two children were still in their early [-]s, unable to share their worries for the country. At that time, the outside world was noisy and people were panicking. disaster.As a big clan in Hedong, even after the initial fall of the Central Plains, Zuo Duanyou was still in the local town, fighting against the surrendered Jurchen forces and supporting many rebels and resistance forces in the Central Plains.But for the women, children, and children in the family, the old man moved them to Jiangnan first, preserving the seeds of the future.

Zuo Wenhuai and Yu Mingzhou were transferred to Jiangnan under such circumstances. They never felt the threat of war, but they felt everything that has always been worrying: the teachers changed and changed, and the adults in the family disappeared. , the world is chaotic, and countless refugees migrate to the south.

The shadow of chaos loomed in front of the children who were once arrogant, but the pressure of reality was nothing to the children for the time being.Then in the second year of Jianshuo, when Zuo Wenhuai and Yu Mingzhou were both 13 years old, there was a real difference for the first time in eight years.

At the age of 13 at this time, it is not far from the "adulthood" of children in this era. The teenagers already have a basic logical structure, and they are waiting for the day when we meet again. .

At that time, Yu Mingzhou didn't know Zuo Wenhuai's whereabouts, and Zuo Wenhuai himself didn't know the arrangements at home.Under Zuo Duanyou's instruction, a group of young Zuojia teenagers were quickly arranged to go north to Xiaocang River to be taught by Ning Yi. This learning process lasted for more than two years.

In the third year of Jianshuo, Jurchen began to attack Xiaocanghe, which opened the prelude to the three-year battle of Xiaocanghe. Ning Yi wanted to return these children to the Zuo family, so as not to be injured in the war. entrust.But Zuo Duanyou wrote back and expressed his refusal. The old man wanted the children at home to suffer the same polishing as the children of the Huaxia Army.If you can't make it, even if you come back, it will be a waste.

In the autumn of the fourth year of Jianshuo, Zuo Wenhuai and other talents moved south with the first batch of women and children who left. At that time, they had already experienced the difficulties when the Xiaocang River was blocked and witnessed the heroic appearance of the Huaxia Army soldiers in battle.

At this age, there are some things, once witnessed, will be engraved in the soul.

Going to the southwest, participating in the construction for a certain period of time, and returning to Zuo’s house, Zuo Wenhuai is already a 16-year-old “adult”.He met Yu Mingzhou again, and the things in his soul were more like steel. At that time, the three-year war in Xiaocanghe had just come to an end, and the news of Mr. Ning's death came out, and Zuo Wenhuai's heart was greatly shocked. On the one hand I can't believe it, but on the other hand, I can't help but start thinking about the future of the world.

Yu Mingzhou has spent a few years in the false singing and dancing. Although his thinking is still sunny and upright, his understanding of the cruelty of the Jurchen is insufficient. He is only a little wary of the weakness of Nanwu after singing and dancing, and his mind is full of optimism. Emotions.

The two of them who have reached the age of 16 are already able to decide their own future. Due to the strict confidentiality education they learned in Xiaocanghe, Zuo Wenhuai did not reveal to Ming Zhou where he had been going for the past three years. Yu Mingzhou left Jiangnan, crossed the Yangtze River, traveled all over the Central Plains, and even once reached the border of the Kingdom of Jin.

One or two years after the Xiaocanghe War was the most chaotic time for the situation in the Central Plains. Due to the fact that the Huaxia Army finally planted spies inside the warlords in various parts of the Central Plains, the "Daqi" forces headed by Liu Yu were almost crazy. Famine, military disasters, the brutality of officials at all levels, and countless inhumane scenes were all presented in front of the two young people. Even Zuo Wenhuai, who had experienced the Xiaocanghe War, couldn't bear it, let alone living in a peaceful life. Among them is Yu Mingzhou.

After traveling like this for a year, Zuo Wenhuai gradually told Yu Mingzhou about the deeds of the Huaxia Army and explained to him everything he had witnessed in the Xiaocang River in the past few years.

However, Zuo Wenhuai, who was only 17 years old at this time, thought that "understanding can be obtained by talking about things" in his mind, which was just a fantasy.During his most critical three years, he witnessed Xiao Canghe and everything about the Huaxia Army, while Yu Mingzhou spent his most critical three years living under the guidance of an upright general who was loyal to the Wu Dynasty.After hearing Zuo Wenhuai confess his thoughts, the two friends started a fierce quarrel.

"Everything in the Central Plains was caused by the Huaxia Army", "Ning Liheng is just a reckless butcher", "The Black Flag Army should bear the blood debt of the whole world"... When Zuo Wenhuai told the deeds of the Huaxia Army, Yu Mingzhou also began to accuse in the other direction. The two brothers who were brothers and sisters quarreled for half a month, and escalated from a quarrel to a hands-on. When Zuo Wenhuai, who looked weak, knocked Mingzhou to the ground again and again, Yu Ming Zhou chose to cut off his robe with Zuo Wenhuai.

"The Wu Dynasty must have a way out beyond the black flag!"

Holding such a belief, after parting ways with Zuo Wenhuai, Yu Mingzhou traveled in the chaotic land of the Central Plains for nearly a year, and no one knows how many tragic scenes he saw.Zuo Wenhuai returned to Jiangnan and started his own work. A year later, he knew that Yu Mingzhou would come back to continue his study of military strategy. As for Zuo Wenhuai, who may have become a member of the Huaxia Army, he has been from the beginning to the end. Never disclosed it to anyone else.

In the ninth year of Jianshuo, Jurchen prepared for the fourth southern expedition. Ten years later, the world fell into war. Yu Mingzhou, who was only in his early twenties, did some things, but it was bound to be to no avail.No one knows what kind of anxiety this young man who has no foundation and ability has in his heart, seeing the world fall.

In this way, it was not until the autumn of 11 that the unexpected happened. At this time, Yu Gusheng took refuge in Jurchen in order to protect himself, and was ordered by Xi Yinzhi to attack Changsha.

When the two met again, what Zuo Wenhuai saw was Yu Mingzhou who had already made some kind of decision, with bloodshot eyes hidden in his eyes, with a vague hint of madness: "I have a plan that may help you defeat Yinshu can, defend Changsha... can you cooperate?"

Zuo Wenhuai naturally nodded his head repeatedly after being able to win reinforcements, but when Yu Mingzhou made a rough introduction, Zuo Wenhuai shook his head greatly for such a plan.Giving up his own army of [-] people and gaining the trust of the Jurchen upper class in the hope of playing a decisive role at a critical time is too much of a test of luck.

But Yu Mingzhou just laughed sarcastically: "Half of the family members have already fallen under their watch after taking refuge in the golden dog, not to mention whether my father has the guts to go wrong, even if he fights with you, the five I'm afraid Master Wan won't be able to withstand a silver attack. What are you going to use to make up the number of people?"

In hindsight, Yu Mingzhou, who decided to betray his own army and even his biological father, must have experienced a series of things that made him feel hopeless: the tragedy in the Central Plains, the collapse of Jiangnan, the weakness of the Han army, the collapse of thousands of people and surrender……

After passing the army's information to Chen Fan through Zuo Wenhuai, Yu Mingzhou, who experienced his first big defeat, encountered the hurried young prince Wanyan Qingjue in the Jurchen military camp.

……

"The information about you was only handed over to Yu Mingzhou by me at that time. The many details you saw were perfected one by one in the days to come. The irritable and powerless Yu Mingzhou you saw. , in fact, it all comes from his imitation of you..."

In Zuo Wenhuai's voice, Wanyan Qingjue slammed her hands on the table, because of the humiliation contained in these words, she was extremely angry...

……

The arrival of Wanyan Qingjue increases the possibility of Yu Mingzhou's plan to succeed.

As Xi Yin's disciple, the young prince of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Qingjue, has a detached position in this battle of Changsha.And of course he couldn't have imagined that during the period when he was captured by the Huaxia Army, the staff of the Huaxia Army made a lot of observations and analyses on him, including making people imitate his behavior, talk, and act like him. appearance.Among the three armies that Chen Fan defeated at first, the one led by Li Touhe was deceived by the Huaxia army disguised as the little prince. After receiving false information, it suffered a beheading attack and was defeated.

Zuo Wenhuai made a guarantee for Yu Mingzhou in the Huaxia Army, and after that, Wanyan Qingjue's information was handed over to Yu Mingzhou.

In the first attack and defeat, although Yu Gusheng's army was repelled by Chen Fan, Yu Mingzhou showed a certain commanding strength in the defeat.But Jurchen, who was deeply guarded against the Han army, would not appreciate him for his talent, and Yu Mingzhou had to choose another direction.

The troops led by Chen Fan were not many. For the army of more than [-] people, they could only choose to defeat them, but they could not carry out large-scale annihilation. After the defeat of the Yu family army, they were gathered up again.The second rout happened when Wanyan Qingjue was attacked. The information itself was due to Mingzhou, and he also led the army to approach Wanyan Qingjue. In the huge chaos, Yu Gusheng was attacked and "died" , Yu Mingzhou commanded the remnants of the army to fight tenaciously to protect Wanyan Qingjue's transfer.

In this battle, Yu Mingzhou not only "lost" his father, but also lost three fingers of his left hand.

……

"His fingers were chopped off by his own hands... I said later, just one was enough. He said that it was too stingy to chop off only one. reluctant."

Zuo Wenhuai's calm words in the room contained a thrilling trembling.Wanyan Qingjue took a deep breath, he naturally remembered the bloody hands and the look of the young general who was almost mad with hatred.

……

Yu Mingzhou killed one of his uncles, kidnapped his father with his own hands, chopped off three of his fingers, and began to play a crazy general who wanted to take revenge on the Huaxia Army.

Wanyan Qingjue felt his hatred and the ugliness he wanted to vent later.

It was Wanyan Qingjue's greatest pain when he was easily captured by the Huaxia Army, but he couldn't show his revenge against the Huaxia Army.As a decision maker, especially a disciple of Gushen, he had to show prudence and composure. In private, he was even more afraid of others laughing at him for this.

The more unbearable ugliness that Yu Mingzhou showed made him find a mirror. Yes, he also wanted to make the Chinese soldiers pay a heavy price, and also wanted to slaughter the other party's entire family, watching the other party howling and begging for mercy.These vulgar thoughts made him feel ashamed, and because of this, Yu Mingzhou's pain made him feel happy.

It just so happens that Yu Mingzhou is really not an incompetent general. He has a good commanding and planning ability. He also knows a lot about the officialdom of the Wu Dynasty and many things in the army. In private, Yu Mingzhou also knows it very well. The way of enjoyment in the Wu Dynasty, he would seemingly inadvertently provide Wanyan Qingjue with some channels for enjoyment, and would seize some of Wanyan Qingjue's favorite treasures, and then hand them over to Wanyan Qingjue in an unassuming form, and he would also Exchange some military resources for "revenge" and leave.

After four months of getting along, Wanyan Qingjue finally fully trusted Yu Mingzhou, and the troops commanded by Yu Mingzhou also became one of the Han army troops most relied on by Jinren in the Battle of Changsha.By February 21, a large-scale battle had already begun, and Yu Mingzhou chose to fight after repeated calculations.

See the picture poorly.

……

The last time Zuo Wenhuai saw Yu Mingzhou was when his eyes were bloodshot and he finally decided to do it.

Friends who have been friends for more than ten years, although there have been a few years of separation, they have been able to talk a lot about each other after meeting in the past few months.Zuo Wenhuai actually had a lot to say and wanted to persuade him to go through the whole plan again, but Yu Mingzhou still acted stubborn in this matter.

"This is my business. After killing Yinshu, let's see who is the best." Yu Mingzhou said with an arrogant expression, "... Wu Dynasty also has a way to win. If you give me 20 more years, I don't need you."

After he said this, he hesitated slightly, but finally... he didn't say any more words.

During the entire battle, Yu Mingzhou had only one chance.He grabbed Wanyan Qingjue, then disrupted the communication system, and issued a false order drafted earlier, in Wanyan Qingjue's name, led Yinshuke's troops into the mountains, divided the troops by the mountain, and then mobilized a large number of Han troops to block the road.

He set up a large-scale ambush for Yinshuke, but the plan still failed to catch up with the changes. As a Jurchen veteran, Yinshuke noticed a problem first, and the mines did not cause huge damage to him. damage.The situation in the mountain was chaotic, and Yinshu could lead the elites to rush out to join the large army.

Chen Fan's troops were still rushing through the mountains and had yet to arrive.Yu Mingzhou personally led the team to intercept and realized that the silver art of the problem could go straight to Mingzhou's main formation. Yu Mingzhou tried his best to entangle or escape in the mountains to contain the silver art.

In the early morning of February 24th, Yu Mingzhou, who fought fiercely all night, led a small number of personal guards, and was blocked in the mountains by Yin Shuke—he had surrendered for too long, and many things needed to be kept secret. After all, there are not many troops, and a large number of troops are vulnerable to Yinshu Ke's charge. In the end, they just fled all over the mountains and plains. Looking at the Yinjuke troops rushing forward, they laughed loudly and issued a challenge.

"Hahahaha, silver art! Grandpa is Yu Mingzhou from the Wu Dynasty! I made you come this far! If you want revenge, you dare to fight me one-on-one—"

His hands were trembling, and he could barely hold the blood-stained long knife, but while shouting, he was still walking forward, with unforgettable, bloodthirsty hatred in his eyes, Silver Art accepted his challenge, and single-handedly , rushed over.

When the morning sun rose, Yu Mingzhou rushed towards the enemy of Jin Kingdom without reservation, fighting with all his strength——

……

"Yu Mingzhou can't come to see you. On the morning of the 24th, he died in the battle with Yinshuke." Zuo Wenhuai said, "Unlike the Huaxia Army, he has too few companions. , and not many people can fight side by side with him. This is the reason for the demise of the Wu Dynasty. But as a human being, he really did not lose to anyone in this world."

"he……"

Zuo Wenhuai considered for a moment, deep sorrow flashed in his eyes, but he did not speak.

The problems he faces are too huge, the world he faces is too cruel, and the responsibilities he has to bear are too heavy, so he can only fight in such a decisive way. Is his nature cruel?Just because the world is too corrupt, the hero can only resist like this.

He fought all the way, and finally marched forward with a sword.Who can compare to him?
Zuo Wenhuai slowly stood up and left the room.

……

The confusion of intelligence and the departure of the coach caused huge losses on the battlefield, and it was also a decisive loss.

Yinshu died in the next hour after Mingzhou's sacrifice, and Chen Fan led his troops to catch up with him.

Someone told Chen Fan about Yu Mingzhou's death, and soon after, Chen Fan got off his horse and headed towards the dead head coach of Jurchen.

"Translate to him, silver art! Give you a chance! You and I, decide the outcome of this war!"

Yin Shuke's warhorse had already died under Yu Mingzhou's sword. He waved the guards, threw away his helmet, and moved forward with a gun.Not long after, this Jurchen will be beaten to death by Chen Fan in a fierce fight on a slope near Liuyang County.

　I don't want to lose my emotions, I haven't stayed up late for a long time.

Oh shit!Apart from being sorry for my health, this chapter is really worthy of everyone...

sleep!
