son-in-law

Chapter 977 A Song of Ice and Fire ([-])
The broken half-human head was placed in a bamboo basket and sent to the negotiating table in front.

Gao Qingyi's roar stopped. It is said that after seeing the head of Xie Bao, he was silent for a long time, and then said to Lin Qiu, "Don't you think you should be afraid of deceiving people so far?"

Lin Qiu replied: "In the past ten years, you have done countless such things. When you see his fate, you should start to be afraid."

Negotiations ended for more than half an hour.

The sky gradually dimmed, the torches lit up, and all the troops on the ground waited solemnly.

Not long after, Gao Qingyi returned to the negotiating table and asked the Huaxia Army to return Wanyan Xiebao's body, but Lin Qiu still refused: "Mr. Ning only explained that I negotiated with General Gao to exchange prisoners. No authority to negotiate. Or is General Gao still wasting precious time on a corpse?"

"Then..." Gao Qingyi's eyes were cold, but he finally gritted his teeth and said, "When your people go back to report the news, please submit this request to Mr. Ning later."

The whole negotiation started in this kind of gnashing atmosphere. More than an hour later, the messenger brought back Ning Yi's treatment of Xie Bao's body: "If the prisoner exchange goes smoothly, Xie Bao's body will be recovered after the prisoner exchange. Send it back as a gift to comfort the pain of the loss of the son of the commander Nianhan."

Gao Qingyi expressed his gratitude.

……

The night was quiet.

In the seemingly peaceful atmosphere of negotiation in front of Shiling, more staggering and fighting are taking place in the dark mountains and forests.

Before the Hai Shiling arrived, two medium-scale battles broke out between the mountains a few miles southwest of Shiling. The scouts met in the woods and launched the most adventurous and deadly battle in the dark night. Yu Yu went to the front line in person and led the team out.

At the moment of Hai, the flame of the "Dijiang" rose in the darkness in the distance, and Shiling could vaguely see it. The rocket fired five shots at the hillside where Yu Yu and others gathered, and the flames lit up. In the woods, the scout team led by Du Shi made a large-scale raid on the Jurchen scouts.

The breakthrough and rescue in the direction of the Wangyuan Bridge was blocked again, and the negotiation process in Shiling was followed by a link of mutual accusation and shirk responsibility.

As for the Jurchen barracks, more rescue and breakthrough plans organized by Wanyan Sheyema, Ba Lisu and others are also being carried out at the same time.

Near midnight, in the main camp of the Han army Li Rulai in the mountains in the northeast, the light appeared low and dark, only the bean-like light was bright in the tent, Li Rulai had already received the Huaxia army in the camp. The information is waiting for the arrival of the Huaxia Army negotiator.

The fire and chaos suddenly erupted in the camp outside the tent. Some people shouted: "Catch the spies!" In the wind and fire, there were also the shouts of countless Jurchens. He opened the curtain of the tent and went out, and the lieutenant ran. Come over: "Wanyan Saba is here..."

"Over there..." Li Rulai frowned and looked at the chaos. The lieutenant said, "A spy sneaked in. Fortunately, it was discovered, causing confusion. The spy seems to have escaped while taking advantage of the chaos."

"Escaped?"

"...escape."

"Fengying Dasuo, I want to investigate this matter thoroughly!"

He frowned and saw that the torches of Wanyan Saba's cavalry were already near, and when the brigade rushed to the front, he saw Wanyan Saba dismounting from the chariot: "General Li, the commander is about to Launching a large-scale attack in the direction of Shiling and Wangyuanqiao, the Black Flag Army is already afraid, our spy has detected that the other party will have a big change tonight, and the commander ordered me to assist General Li in the attack."

The Han general saluted and knelt down: "Li Rulai obeys the order!"

He listened carefully, the sound of fighting in the darkness turned into a low roar of the wind.

*************
Wangyuan Bridge.The wind whimpered.

In the early morning, Pusanhun felt the cold.

He didn't know what time it was, he took a nap, and when he woke up, the stars in the sky filled him, and he felt that the people around him were shaking.His hands were shaking too.

He hadn't felt the cold in years.

The coldest in the world is the winter in the Northland. The snow roars for months, and the family huddles together around the fire.There is often not enough food in winter. When he was a teenager, many people died of starvation in such winter.

There are few days like this after joining the army.

Pusanhun joined the army at the end of Pingliao. At that time, he was in his early twenties. He did not catch up with the first round of major military exploits. However, because of his identity as a Jurchen, he dared to fight and dare to work hard. After joining the army, he became the backbone of the army. He has fought a lot of battles, killed a lot of people, and gained a lot of benefits.

In the 11th year of Tianhui, he entered Yanshanwei as an elite and was promoted to Mouk (centurion).There are few Jurchens in the Kingdom of Jin, and as long as the general Jurchen fighters are clear-headed, they can be promoted quickly, but Pu Sanhun's Muke is different from other troops in the army. Most of his soldiers are elite fighters with Jurchen as the backbone.This is the elite combat power that always exists to protect the Jurchen's reputation of being "invincible". If it is placed in an army like the Kingdom of Jin, it is also worthy of being a commander. If it is in front of the Han army, it is equivalent to the leader of ten thousand men. General.

At that time, although Yanshanwei experienced the great setback of Lou Shi's death, the quality of his soldiers was extremely high. Zong Hanxiyin and others arranged for the battle of the Southwest in advance, and personally led the army with Xiebao, who was second only to the army. Tu Shanwei's strong army was built, showing great importance, and the backbone of the army like Pusanhun naturally received a lot of preferential treatment.

Prosperity and wealth, fiefdoms and mansions, beautiful women and money, for the Jurchen at the moment, this kind of enjoyment is no problem.At this moment, the thirty-year-old Pusanhun is not lost in it. In fact, just like many first-generation entrepreneurs who have been killed by the blue thread, their success has gone through a real test. What they are obsessed with is the sense of power that has gradually become a human being from a situation where they have no clothes for more than ten years.

After killing countless people, the beauty of money came naturally, and after fighting one battle after another, the compliments and respect of others were naturally presented.Pusanhun loves the feeling of fighting, loves the reputation of "invincible", which will bring them all the good and solve all the problems.

After joining the Yanshan Guard who had the "stigma" of losing the battle, the army has been preparing for the conquest of the black flag.Occasional defeats do not mean anything. The death of General Lou Shi in an ambush by the Black Flag Army does not mean that there is a problem with the army.At that time, Yan Shanwei, under the command of Xie Bao, quelled several small rebellions, and also fought with a cunning enemy on the grasslands - the other side fled in the wind - all battles were invincible.Jurchen is still invincible.

Veterans of Yanshanwei who had experienced the Battle of the Northwest would occasionally talk about the enemies they encountered in that battle, and on rare occasions, some soldiers would think that the Black Flag was powerful.Pu Sanhun scoffed at such a statement, the enemy is strong, so what?Even if it is an evenly matched opponent, defeat it head-on!Is the rise of Daikin just because the enemy is too weak?
After losing a battle, they fight another battle, and if they have a blood debt, they will get it back from the enemy.Jurchen has grasped his own destiny in the shadow of sword, light and sword. Over the years, Pusanhun has always felt such a power.

With the start of the Fourth Southern Expedition, for Pusanhun, it was more like a large-scale tour of the mountains and waters.The West Route Army went all the way south, stopping in Jindi and Xiangyang, and encountered several opponents in the war, but for elites like Yanshanwei, the final result is actually the same, whether the enemy is tenacious or weak. Pusanhun enjoyed the feeling of winning the wars. During this period, he had killed some people, grabbed some rare items, and used some women, but that was just a diversion incidental to the battle.

Even though they moved slowly after Jiange, the resistance of the Huaxia Army was fierce and tenacious, and Pusanhun, who followed Yanshanwei, always maintained a strong fighting spirit and determination to fight.

All this until Mangwon Bridge.

When the [-]-strong army rushed out of the mountain, he learned that he was facing the Mr. Ning from the southwest.There are many sayings about this person. Even in the Great Jin Army, they often admit that this person is a difficult opponent, the emperor who killed the Han people, and the madman who fought against the world.

This man came up to 3 people with thousands of troops, and everyone in the army could only think that he had some sort of conspiracy, such as ambushes, landmines, and the so-called ruined boats.Of course, there is not much time for them to think, and no concrete results can be obtained. The total number of Huaxia Army is only 6 to [-]. Even if there are any ambushes and surprise soldiers, [-] Yanshan Guards are enough. Fight it.

No one thought it would be such a battle.

In less than an hour, thousands of black flag troops smashed the [-] Yanshan Guards who were at the peak of their fighting will and determination to the ground.

Thousands died on the battlefield, and more than [-] were captured.At this moment, on the beach near the Wangyuan Bridge, all the dark shadows were crowded together, and boats were cruising along the riverbed with their lights on.In the trembling of his arms, what appeared in Pu Sanhun's mind was the situation in the past few years when some soldiers in Yanshanwei raised the black flag to fight the Northwest War.

The black flag is strong...

Fight to death...

Na Ning Yi, very good at fighting in desperate situations...

Who can imagine that after a few years, the strength of the black flag will be so strong?
After the defeat the day before yesterday afternoon, all the prisoners had not eaten. Even the veterans, half an hour of fighting in the war would consume one's physical strength. In the hours after the defeat, the prisoners were driven away in chaos. Divided, one is unable to accept the fact of defeat, and the other is frightened by everything that happened on the battlefield, and even thought that he had encountered a demon in his mind.On the first day of the first day, hunger gradually returned, and reason gradually returned.

what's going on……

What will the world be like...

What will happen to Daikin...

Some will start to think: the black flag has a magic method, when will the gods and shamans come over, and does the commander have a way to deal with it...

Even... how to resist?
The Huaxia Army had confiscated all the weapons and equipment, and the prisoners were divided into open spaces beside the river. All day on the first day of March, Pu Sanhun was looking at the small river not far away.Yanshanwei are all northerners, and there are not many people who know how to swim, but after all, the river is not wide. If you can risk entering the water, maybe it is possible to escape to the other side?Or go down the river and escape the chase?

Even on the other side of the river, it was still the territory under the jurisdiction of the Huaxia Army. The horse team walked along the wilderness, and there was not much chance for the escapees.But no chance is better than no chance at all.

On the night of the defeat, everyone was terrified, and most of them didn't sleep. During the first day of the first day of the first year, the thoughts flew in his mind, his stomach was hungry, and his spirit was always tense.What I remembered in my mind were the treasures that were snatched and looted along the way.When Jin Jun fought and won, he didn't think that these things were very precious, but when he remembered it, what emerged in his heart was that he might not be able to bring back these good things.

There are also women and children at home, and I don't know if I can see them again.

These thoughts gradually turned into the last courage, he wanted to do something.It was like this until the middle of the night, when he involuntarily took a nap, and when he woke up, it was already such an early morning.He looked towards the riverbed and felt the trembling of his arms, which was caused by hunger, cold, and fear.

He was about to act when suddenly, a sharp voice sounded in the darkness!
In the early morning of the second day of March, when the first-line fighting between Shiling and Xiukou became fierce, chaos began near Wangyuan Bridge.

It was an unexpected turn of events that turned into an uncontrollable tragedy in the ensuing time.

……

The ugly night was in full swing, and the Jurchen scouts hiding in the mountains several miles north of Wangyuan Bridge saw the light rising from the dark night.In the direction of Wangyuan Bridge, the flames of the explosion looked particularly bright in the dark night.

The scouts rushed forward and confirmed the chaos on the other side of the river with the binoculars in the best field of vision: a massacre was breaking out in the field of vision. Or run into the river to try to escape. The Huaxia army first responded with a spear formation, and then organized a long spear and shield formation to block the rushing Jurchen prisoners from the bloodline of the massacre.

One by one the corpses floated up the creek and piled up on the bank.

For the Jurchen scouts who have been fighting and fighting for many years, such a scene has been seen countless times, but it may be the first time in many years that it happened to the Jurchen.

How dare the Huaxia army slaughter the Jurchen prisoners!

After killing King Baoshan in front of everyone, they dared to slaughter the captives of Yanshanwei who had surrendered!

Humiliation and anger exploded in the scout's mind. After reconfirming the scene in front of him, he ran back towards Shiling. Soon, the top Jurchen officials who had not rested during the long night learned of the brutality and even inhumanity. news.

Wanyan Sheye, who failed to attack the Wangyuan Bridge, dashed into the camp wearing half-blooded armor, his eyes were blood red, and his teeth were cracking: "It's too much deceiving, the surname Ning is too deceiving, I will definitely kill his whole family, Punish the nine clans! If not, I would be ashamed of the ancestors of the Jurchen generations—"

Insulting and shouting are the main voices in the Jurchen camp, and even Han Qixian, who has always been steady and indifferent, smashed the teacup on the table, and someone shouted: "In this situation, we can only fight to the death with the Huaxia army! Back again!"

Some people asked themselves to be the pioneers, and they died on the battlefield without breaking the Huaxia army.Wanyan Zonghan, who had just experienced the pain of losing his son, clenched his fists tightly and slammed his fist on the table in the midst of everyone's discussion and shouting, "Is it useful!? Force me to wait for a decisive battle with him at this time! I don't know the importance of it, but I will be a general!!!"

In Zonghan's rage, the righteous indignation of everyone stopped.In fact, among the generals of the Jin army who can follow Zong Han to this moment, which one is not a hero with outstanding strategic vision?It's just that now, they can only say words to boost morale, and the decision to retreat can only be made by Zong Han himself.

The massacres after the defeat fell on their own heads, which is indeed indignant and uncomfortable, but in the past, how many more than [-] people did they kill?The Northwest was killed into a white place, and the Central Plains were ten rooms and nine empty spaces. These were all things they had done before, and Ning Yi was so cruel. Obviously, it is also to anger all the Jurchen troops, stay here, and conduct a big battle.

Behind the anger of the crowd is such speculation and calculation, but in the Huaxia Army Shiling Headquarters, a different scene is presented.

Ning Yi, who had only slept for less than an hour, was woken up from his sleep and reported the outbreak of the Wangyuan Bridge.Ning Yi's face was gloomy, and he patted the table in the same way: "What are you doing!" He grabbed the information and walked out.

This night, the Jurchen will make many violent reactions as expected, and the front line has already arranged various countermeasures, so it is not surprising that any conflicts will break out.But Wangyuanqiao's negligence is indeed unexpected.

In fact, this is also a problem caused by the insufficient number of Chinese troops.After the Battle of Wangyuan Bridge, the soldiers who were able to move to the front have moved forward, and more troops have even begun to prepare for further attacks. Those who stayed near the Wangyuan Bridge to guard the prisoners. Only about [-] Chinese soldiers remained.

The [-] fully-armed Huaxia Army soldiers had no psychological fear in the face of more than [-] disarmed Yanshan Guards, but under the high-intensity combat rhythm, it was actually difficult to guard the prisoners. Become meticulous in a short period of time.With the large-scale mobilization of troops around the first day of the new year, it is difficult to immediately transfer prisoners ten times their size, not to mention that there are still many wounded soldiers who need to be resettled.

After a whole day of starvation on the first day of March, the stomachs of the Jurchen captives were empty, but the thoughts of being beaten the day before finally began to come alive.

In the early morning of the second day of the second day, some Jurchen soldiers chose to take the risk, escaped from the humble prison camp, and tried to escape through the river.This escape action was immediately discovered. The soldiers in charge of patrol stabbed the fugitive to death in the river with a long spear. In the camp, a hidden Jurchen general shouted loudly, trying to take advantage of the darkness to take advantage of the insufficient number of Huaxia troops. Incite a mass exodus.

This was Yanshanwei's first defeat in several years. Although it was tragic, after a day's time, he was still able to regain some of his courage.

About 500 people from the two captive camps that were separated participated in this escape that gradually expanded in scale.Due to the limitation of the river terrain, there are not many directions they can choose.The Musketeer team of about [-] people was in charge of meeting them. After three warnings at the entrance of each camp, the Musketeer team started shooting without hesitation. Advance forward.

As one of the Jurchen's most elite troops, the soldiers of Yanshanwei are known for their ferocity. Even if they don't have weapons, they are deadly weapons and violent beasts to ordinary people.But in this regard, the soldiers of the Huaxia Army are not necessarily inferior.Facing the thin shield wall lined up in a long line, the soldiers of Yanshanwei risked their lives, trying to break through a road with the fierceness that they finally gathered, and then they rushed onto the firm reef like a whistling tide.

The assembled shield wall withstood the huge impact, and the spear pierced immediately, piercing the front row of Jurchen soldiers in the pool of blood, and then the shield wall was opened, and the sword light slashed, killing the first wave of Jurchen warriors. in front of you.After that, the shield turned back and formed a shield wall again to meet the next wave of shocks.

Dijiang's flames were also launched towards the direction of the camp near the river.

"Fugitives die—" The cold cry resounded through the night sky. At this moment, the guards of the Huaxia Army did not actually show the slightest mercy to these Jurchen prisoners who dared to resist.

Nearly 2000 people died in the chaos of the night.The will to resist of the more than [-] people in Yanshanwei was also extinguished.

Ning Yi quietly listened to the process of suppressing the rebellion at the Wangyuan Bridge in the headquarters.

Pang Luan nodded: "Yes. His talents were withdrawn from the front, and he originally wanted him to rest for a while..."

"Remove the brigade commander position and immediately explain the problem, why did it happen like this? Is it intentional negligence or unintentional negligence. I know that his family members died at the hands of Jurchen, and his comrades died at the hands of Jurchen. Yes, but if this goes on like this, he doesn't need to lead the troops anymore!"

The atmosphere in the headquarters suddenly became tense.Ning Yi knocked on the table: "Do you think this is very satisfying? More than 2 people have put down their knives and guns. What's so great about killing them all! But you are soldiers! The task for you is to make these monkeys obedient, not to make people take revenge Just kidding! Everyone is tired these days, if it was unintentional negligence, I will demote him, if it was intentional, he is not worthy of being a soldier! Mess around!"

Pang Luan nodded: "I want to withdraw this matter."

The whole matter was set on this point, and Lin Qiu, who was in charge of the negotiation, stood up and said, "It is estimated that the other side also knows about this matter. After dawn, it may be used as an excuse. How should we deal with it?"

Everyone looked at Ning Yi, and Ning Yi waved his hand: "So what if you know? Pull out the rocket and shoot a few rounds from Zonghan's side to kill those bastards! Besides, how many people died tonight, Tomorrow, bring the heads to me and give them to them. You tell Gao Qingyi that their men sneak over and incite the captives to flee. If there is such a thing, don't talk about it anymore! Hit him now!"

……

In the Jurchen camp, Gao Qingyi said, "After dawn, I will question the Huaxia Army about this!"

……

The technical team of the Huaxia Army dragged the rockets and leaned forward, retaliation for the Jurchen inciting the prisoners of Wangyuan Bridge to flee.

……

At night and dawn, Shiling position.Lin Qiu walked towards Gao Qingyi and scolded Gao Qingyi before he could speak, and the violent scolding began.

*************
At the beginning of March, in the southwest, hidden in the peaceful atmosphere of the Shiling negotiations, a large-scale battle kicked off in the mountains and forests. Hundreds of thousands of people fled and chased on the mountain road between Jiange and Zizhou. .Black smoke and flames spread, and the blood and bones of countless people fertilized this already dense jungle.

This is the beginning of the reversal of the whole world.

A few days later, the news spread like a lie in the land of Jiangnan. Some people were shocked, some people questioned, some people were angry, some people were dazed, some people were crying, some people were happy, some people had mixed feelings, and some people were at a loss...

The world seems to be in a dream, changing its appearance...
