Chapter 44: History as a mirror

"Brother Wang, it's been so long, why didn't you let me go to the battlefield once?"
In the king's account, Feng Lanxi and Feng Wei are playing against each other, but the game has not been played to half, and Feng Wei can't help but repeat the old saying.
"Brother Wang." Feng Wei saw Feng Lan's gaze only staring at the chessboard, as if he hadn't heard his words at all, he couldn't help calling again.
"Oh?" Feng Lanxi shifted his gaze to Feng Wei slightly, but his mind seemed not to be on Feng Wei or the chess game.
"You just let these two people guard me every day, and you won't let me go to the battlefield at all. How can I kill the enemy and build merits in this way? When it's time to go home, my dad asked me if I have to worry about Brother Wang. Do you ask me to answer? : I stay in the tent every day to read books, practice swords, add meals and sleep, and do nothing else?" Feng Wei aggrieved, pointing to the twin brothers Zhongli and Zhongyuan who were waiting aside, "King Brother, you let me go to the battlefield, I must catch the North King alive in front of you!"
"Did I not say that, as long as your sword skills can beat Zhongli, and your art of war can beat Zhongyuan, I will let you go to the battlefield." Feng Lanxi's eyes fell back on the chessboard, and he said casually .
Feng Wei couldn't help but feel discouraged, his eyes staring at the pair of identical twins with infinite grievances, and his heart was annoyed and ashamed, thinking that his son-in-law could not win these two attendants! "It's really annoying!" Such words blurted out.
As for Zhong Li, who faced Feng Wei’s wrathful gaze, Zhong Yuan stood still, but when Feng Lanxi’s gaze moved to the tea cup, Zhong Li hurriedly offered the fragrant tea, and Zhong Yuan held up the silver plate. After Feng Lan took the tea and turned around, the tea cup fell on the silver plate.
"Oh, Brother Wang, when will Wangsao come back? I haven't seen her in a long time." Feng Wei quickly got rid of inferiority and depression, and talked about another thing with great interest, "I recently wrote a An article, just want to show her, she will praise me!"
Feng Lanxi listened to the sound of "Wangsao", and felt quite pleasant, so he answered Feng Wei, "Well... she will come when she wants to come."
"Ah, I miss her so much!" Feng Wei put his hands on his cheeks, his head looked away, and his eyes were dim. "Sister Wang's smile is the best. Sister Qiwu can't compare with her, and her martial arts are high, and her talent is good. Speaking and funny, she is gorgeous and noble when wearing a white royal robe, and she is cool and handsome when wearing silver armor. Alas... if she is not the queen of the brother..." he said, his voice gradually As low as his own words, a smirk smirked on his face.
"Ouch!" Fang Weifang was slapped on the forehead. "Brother, why are you hitting me?" Feng Wei touched his head.
"When I was young, I was thinking about women. If I grow up, don't you want to be a playboy, of course I have to teach you well for my brother." Feng Lan smiled gently, "Your homework today is to copy "Yu Yan Bing Shu". Once again, practice'Sword Shooting' a hundred times!"
"Ah?" Feng Wei screamed suddenly. "There are 490 articles in "The Book of Jade Words." How can I copy it? "A total of 81 strokes of the "Sun Shooting Sword Technique"" Don’t break your hand?"
"Really?" Feng Lanxi leaned back slightly, raised his hands and fiddled with a pot of verdant bluegrass beside the couch, infinite leisure and coziness, and a smirk of Yongya hung on the face.
Feng Wei looked at Feng Lanxi like this, and his mind shifted again, thinking that Brother Wang looks really good, and Wang Sister's perfect match for the world!
"Then you recite "Yuyan Bingshu" one hundred times, and silently write the mantra of "shooting the sword" a hundred times." Feng Lanxi's words fell lightly.
Feng Wei, who seemed to be slow in reaction, finally figured out after a moment, "No! This hasn't changed at all! Brother Wang, why not change it to let me kill a hundred enemies on the battlefield?" He pleaded, not looking. Forgetting to invest in Zhongli and Zhongyuan, hoping that they can also give a helping hand. However, the twins did not seem to receive the message of help from him, and they only looked at their lord squintingly.
"Feng Wei, don't think I don't know what you do every day." Feng Lanxi looked at Feng Wei, with a rare seriousness on his face. "You don't think about how to get away from Zhongli and Zhongyuan eyelids every day. Sneaking out underneath, it would be better to work the military book and swordsmanship. Zhong Li and Zhong Yuan are as old as you, but you can be your teacher. Be handsome!"
"Unfair! Unfair!" Feng Wei shouted, but he didn't even think about it at all. "Brother, you didn't do anything, but you know everything, everything, why did I work hard or can't catch up?" you?"
Feng Lan didn't expect him to say this, and he laughed for a while, "I don't do anything?"
"Originally!" Feng Wei nodded his head and gazed at Feng Lanxi adoringly. "In Wangdu, Brother Wang spent more time growing orchids than in political affairs, but Yongzhou is a six-state." The strongest among them! Now you are out, but you just drink and drink tea every day, and listen to Sister Qiwu’s songs, or you can play chess and draw... By the way, I have never seen your hand holding a weapon, but now not only the entire Beizhou is occupied by my Yongzhou, but half of the world is almost for you!"
Feng Lan looked at the Feng Wei with a look of admiration with a look of amazement, with a trace of embarrassment or even a trace of awkwardness, raised his hand to touch his nose. "In your eyes, I don't seem to have done anything."
"Brother Wang does nothing, and the world will belong to him!" Feng Wei's face was proud.
Feng Lan covered her half with helplessness.
"Brother Wang, let me go to the battlefield." Feng Wei continued to beg.
Feng Lan let go and sighed, "You haven't grown a bit in the past few months. It seems that my teaching is not as good as that of my uncle. It would be better for me to send someone to send you back. It will be better for my uncle and father to teach you later."
"Don't!" Feng Wei shouted as soon as he heard it, and quickly grasped Feng Lanxi with both hands, and his bright eyes were full of prayers, "Brother, I don't want to go back! I want to follow Brother Wang to fight the world!"
"Since you don't want to go back, then go back to your camp and do your homework!" Feng Lanxi glanced at him and waved his hand. Although the tone was indifferent, there was an invisible pressure that Feng Wei dare not say more.
"Got it." Feng Wei let go of his hand and stood up dejectedly, but when his eyes glanced at the twins who seemed to bear a smile, another brow jumped, and another question came to mind, "Brother Wang, I asked the last one Is the question ok?"
"Speak." Feng Lan nodded.
"I heard Zhong Li and Zhong Yuan talking quietly yesterday, saying what General Dongda led 80,000 troops to Juancheng to fight against the Qing King." Feng Wei looked strangely at the twins with changing faces, "They still don't understand Why didn’t the Lord quickly send troops to support him.
Looking at the twins with a pale face, he felt a good mood for a while, and finally got a bitter anger that was seen to death,
Brother, I also want to know if you know that the Green King is in danger, why Don't send troops to assist?"
"Oh?" Feng Lanxi glanced lightly at the twins on the side. The twins suddenly lowered their heads. "That girl... well, since the Blue King did not ask me to send troops to support, he has a chance of winning. Why should I do more?"
"Is that so?" Feng Wei blinked, and didn't seem to believe such a simple reason.
"That's it." Feng Lan nodded. "After finishing the question, don't you go back and do your homework?"
"Yes, the younger brother retreated." Feng Wei retreated.
"Let's go down, too." Feng Lanxi commanded the twins who didn't know how to be good twins, "Don't learn some bad things with Feng Wei!"
"Yes!" The twins breathed a sigh of relief at the same time and bowed back in unison.
After they all left, Feng Lan's eyes fell on the unfinished game. After a while, he whispered a little with a smile: "Feng Wei, only you in the world call me to be a brother, It’s only you who dare to treat me so frankly, it’s her..." He said with a slight sigh, it seemed a little regret and regret, "When you grow up, it won't be like this..." Eyes, leaning the body completely into the couch, there was a moment of silence in the tent, as if you were in the night.
After a while, Feng Lanxi, who seemed to have fallen asleep in the couch, suddenly lowered his hand and glanced at the door, "Come in."
A vague shadow fell silently into the tent, kneeling down: "Dark charm meets the Lord."
"What's the matter?" Feng Lanxi asked.
"The Blue King sent a letter to ask the Lord to send troops!"
"Huh?" Feng Lanxi, who had been careless, suddenly sat up from the couch and looked at the dark charm on the ground. "In this way, this Eastern General and his 80,000 Imperial Guard are still some strength." He Laughing low, his eyes flashing, seeming to think of something, "It's just that she would send you to messenger, which is somewhat unexpected."
"The Green King sent someone else to avoid the interception of General East and formally came to spread the letter. He arrived only a moment ago, but it seemed that he was invited by the military division to "rest"." The dark and faint voice was extremely low.
"Sure enough." Feng Lan nodded, then waved his hand. "You go."
"Yes." The vague black shadow drifted from the tent like a smoky black smoke.
"military adviser."
A sudden voice outside the account awakened Ren Chuanyu from contemplation, "Are the four generals coming? Please please."
"No, it was the Lord who sent a message. Please ask the military division to go to the king's tent."
"Oh?" Ren Chuanyu's eyes flashed, and he replied, "Got it, let's go."
"Yes." Footsteps came and went outside the account.
So fast! Ren Dianyu condensed his eyebrows and smiled slightly, but with a hint of bitterness. Before he could figure out how to deal with them, the person who had passed the message had arrived. It seemed that nothing in this world was in his grasp!
"Don't wear rain." There was another call outside the account, but this time it was Qiao Jin's calm voice.
"Oh." Ren Daiyu answered the account, and the four generals were standing in front of the account.
"The people you sent haven't gone out yet, the Lord's will has arrived." Qiao Jin looked at Ren Chuanyu slightly mockingly.
"It seems that everything can't escape his eyes." Ren Daiyu sighed slightly.
"Duoyu." Qiao Jin looked at Ren Daiyu, his eyes a little complicated, "I still can't agree with your words, but..." He raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows with some anguish, "I can't refute your words."
"That's because we only have one prince." He Qishu said sharply, "You and I may despise this kind of behavior, but for that person and for our common goal, we only have this."
Duanmu Wensheng raised his hand, looked at the long scar between his wrists, and then sighed long, "We used blood to swear... Alas, I still hope that the two kings can coexist together."
"Your hope has been impossible since ancient times!" Ren Daiyu lightly broke his dream.
All five were silent for a while.
"Go, can't you let the Lord wait for a long time." Qiao Jin took the lead to break the silence and take the lead.
"Secretaries see the Lord!" In the king's account, the five respectfully saluted the people on the Jade Seat.
"Get up." Feng Lan waved his hands and looked at the loving generals one by one, his expression was as usual, "The lonely call you here because we have been here for many days, and we should rush to the north of the city. Wang Qicheng."
Ok? The five people were a little stunned when they heard the words. They thought that the Lord called them to come to teach them. Who knows... could not help but breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.
"This time I went to Jiaocheng to send a hundred thousand troops, with Qiao Jin as the general and Chuanyun Association."
But the last sentence of Feng Lanxi made them feel tight again.
"One hundred thousand troops are going to Jiaocheng, is another one hundred thousand troops detouring to the Imperial Capital?" Ren Daiyu asked cautiously.
Feng Lanxi looked at him with a faint smile, and said, "The leader of Wensheng and Qishu went to Juancheng with the orphans after fifty thousand and a half hours. The rain and the remaining fifty thousand troops stayed here and were responsible for the food and grass."
When the words came out, five people were shocked, but they didn't wait for them to react. Feng Lanxi's voice rang again, "Cross the rain, the messenger sent by the Green King recuperates, let him help you stay here, no need to go back. city."
The five of them were cold at the back now, staring blankly at the people on the jade.
"Lord, please let Rongchen enter." After a long while, Ren Chuanyu recovered.
Feng Lan took a look at him, "If it's not a good policy, don't say anything."
"No!" Ren Daiyu knelt down immediately and looked at Feng Lanxi firmly and firmly, "Chen's remarks are only said at this time!"
Feng Lan looked at him quietly without a word, and the next four generals watched Ren Chuanyu with some worry. They are all people who have followed Feng Lan for many years, knowing that their minds are unpredictable, and their emotions are beyond expression.
"Then you talk about it, let the orphan see what kind of good words make you so persistent." Feng Lanxi said indifferently after a while.
Ren Chuanyu looked at Feng Lanxi quietly and spit out solemnly, "One country cannot have two masters, one army cannot have two handsomes!"
As soon as the words fell, there was stillness in the tent, and only the heavy breath of the four generals could be heard, and Feng Lanxi sitting on the top of the jade was opposite to Ren Renyu, who was kneeling down on the jade, but there was no emotion at all. , One is tense and firm.
"Don't wear rain, I think you have been ignoring one thing for a while." Feng Lanxi's voice was elegant and calm, and his dark eyes were so deep that he could not peep. "The lone and the blue king are husband and wife. The Lord said!" That last sentence already carries a warning.
"But..." Ren Daiyu still gazed firmly at the high lord, "Lord, you should know better than anyone what kind of woman Qing Qing is, what kind of country Qingzhou is, and what Fengyunqi is How brave an army is! And..." He gave a slight pause, his eyes gleaming as cold as an iron arrow, and there was a look of all expressions on his face, "Lord, the former Emperor Huan Huan said yes I want to do it, it is really forced by its momentum, you must not forget!"
That last sentence fell clearly and heavily in the tent, and everyone in the tent rang in horror, reaching the heart!
"Lord, think twice!" The four generals knelt down together and knocked on the ground.
"If you want to do it, you are forced by the situation." Such a murmur gently overflowed, and Feng Lanxi's calm face also burst into a thin crack.
If I want to do it, it is really forced by its momentum!
What left this sentence in the annals of history is the former Emperor Huan who was known as a monarch.
Emperor Huan was the ninth son of Jane Emperor, and after the death of Emperor Jian, the crown prince succeeded to the throne and was Zhuang Emperor. Emperor Huan was Zhuang Emperor's same-brother. He was always close to Zhuang Emperor, and had both civility and martial arts. Emperor Huan had the favor of Zhuang Emperor, so he could let go of things and do everything without fear. He reformed malpractices internally, used meritocracy, and made the country increasingly prosperous and powerful; outside, he came to the fore, and he conquered the country to conquer Nandan...it can be said that the military is powerful, the world is incomparable, and there are countless capable soldiers , Kaifu Fengjiang, a high weight, can be described as the second person in the country.
Unfortunately, glaze is fragile.
The master of Gong Gaozhen has never been taboo.
I don't know when the rumours came from the central government, saying that Emperor Huan was proud of himself and had no lordship. Others said that Zhuang Emperor was embarrassed and could not tolerate him...... When such rumors came out, both Emperor Huan and Zhuang Emperor didn't care much, and when they smiled, three people became tigers, and all people talked about gold. After much spreading and spreading for a long time, a crack was naturally drawn in each other's heart. When one day awakened, they realized that they were all estranged and they were suspicious of each other.
It was Zhuang Emperor who first shot. Perhaps he still took into account the brotherhood at first, and did not want to put Huan Emperor to death. He just wanted to weaken his power and set off his power, so he transferred his subordinates or moved out. However, Emperor Huan was a very serious and righteous person. He was very indignant for the loyal and innocent people who were treated harshly by this, so he sent his feelings to Zhuang Emperor in the palace, but the two people who have been close to each other are no longer in their hearts. Unlike the past, they were generally able to tell each other their heartfelt words, which eventually turned into a quarrel between brothers, and Emperor Huan was expelled from the palace.
At this point, the friendship between the two has fully broken down, so Emperor Zhuang started to no longer be affectionate, and many of his subordinates were either killed in prison or were persecuted on the way to exile. However, the impeachment of the imperial Huan Emperor, Zhuang The emperor no longer suppressed as usual, but left it to the Xiefu government for strict investigation. At this point, Emperor Huan had no retreat, either he had no choice but to die, or he would stand alone. If he was the only one suffering, he might have accepted it, but he was implicated in his family and even those loyal subordinates who lived and died together. He couldn’t sit back and watch anyway, so he could only take the second step-take the position!
If I want to do it, it is really forced by its momentum!
How much helplessness and sorrow have been exhausted in such a short word, and at the time of saying this, how painful and decisive was the heart of Emperor Huan, no one knew. It was just this statement that made everyone in the world wary.
"Lord, if King Qing is just an ordinary woman, then everything will be fine, but she is the unparalleled woman who is better than men, and Besse has never seen it!" Ren Chuanyu's words were powerful.
Feng Lanxi slightly bowed his head, holding his forehead with his five fingers, his face hidden under his palm, and after a long time, he heard the unspeakable whisper, "It really looks like a mirror."
The reason why Emperor Huan made this move, in addition to being forced by the situation, the more important point is that everyone takes his own priority!
When their own lives and rights are threatened, all morality and friendship are thrown away. As long as he was forced to a desperate situation, the selfish and self-interested self wrapped in a beautiful moral etiquette dress deep inside the heart of the human being was exposed. For people, it is themselves who are in the first place.
Feng Lan smiled bitterly. What a good mirror, the two of them are reflected in every detail! Will they be like Huan Emperor and Zhuang Emperor?
Xiyun...
He closed his eyes, but what appeared in his eyes was the hands that the two of Wu Huizhong shook hands.
Countless torches ignited under the dark sky, illuminating the earth under the night, under the fire, it was a tragic and sad scene.
Blood-stained flags fell on the dirt ground, helmets and broken blades scattered everywhere, countless lying bodies, and occasionally a wail of the war horse... The head that separated from the body, the eyes that were opened or closed, the fear And the desperate face, the expression of pain and struggle... In the pool of blood, in the mud, like a sad painting quietly presented in front of everyone's eyes.
When Dongshufang received the news and the leader arrived, tens of thousands of people saw this scene, and tens of thousands of people watched in shock and speechless.
After a long time, someone gave a mournful howl and a mournful long scream. Those who have died may have relatives or partners or friends who grew up together.
The clattering armor sounded, and tens of thousands of people knelt down on the ground without asking to mourn their companions.
"To order General Le, the speed leader to Hashihara before this time to join the original!"
Dongshu squeezed the handle of his waist tightly, gazing brightly at the wilderness in the deep night. What a quick action! It is not accidental that Feng Xiyun can have today's fame if he shouldn't split his troops!
At that time, Feng Xiyun was negotiating with the minister.
"Juancheng is too small. If it is attacked by 80,000 troops, it will be destroyed by our troops in two days. And the people in Juancheng will recover only a little from the previous one, and if it is broken again, The disaster of home destruction and the death of many innocent lives is really unbearable. So we withdrew from Juancheng. It’s just that General Dongda came to fight me, and he would chase me wherever I hid, so we There will be a fight!"
"The King of Qiyun is a plain. Except for the first high mountain and the vast mountains, there are only five hills in the whole Wangyu. Luoying Mountain is one of them. The reason why Luoying Mountain is called Luoying is because of its shape, overlooking from a height, There is a falling flower above the plain, this time, our battlefield is on this Luoying Mountain!"
"General Dongda certainly doesn't like to visit Luoying Mountain with us, so we still have a first battlefield, that is Suhara! On this plain, we will invite Dongda General to Mount Yingying!"
In the king's tent as bright as the day, Feng Xiyun's fingers lightened on the map, and the voice was powerful.
October 23rd, unitary time.
On the plains, the barriers were clear. One side was the 70,000 imperial guards wearing brown armor, and the other side was the 30,000 wind and cloud riders wearing silver armor. They swept across the plains with the cold north wind, and the flags were hunting and hunting. The red tassel on the spear is like a gauze dancing in the wind, and it is better than the bright red sunset hanging diagonally on the sky.
At the forefront of the Imperial Guard sits General General Dong, beside him is the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard Leyuan. He is a middle-aged strong man of about forty years old, tall and strong, giving a kind of sturdy and brave Feelings, behind them, are the five entourage generals.
The front of Fengyunqi is Lin Ji and Xiu Jiurong. The queen who has always been at the front of the battle has disappeared. However, Feng Yunqi faced up to several times its enemies, but the lineup was strict and vigorous.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...
The drums of war were ringing, and there was a sudden rush of fighting. The two armies moved towards each other like a tide. When the silver tide and the brown tide flooded, the sharp sound of weapons struck the eardrum, and the pain was followed by a terrible pain. Shouting and screaming, Yin Hong's blood sprayed on the face, the soldiers all waved their swords in their hands, slashed into the enemy's head, stab the enemy's chest...
This is a battle with a disparate number of people, so soon, the victory or defeat of the war will gradually be divided. The two guards can siege Fengyunqi together, and the Imperial Guard will soon win an overwhelming victory, outnumbered. Feng Yunqi was suppressed by the bravery of the imperial guards, and he gradually became afraid. He was defeated, and even some timid soldiers were scared by the enemy. The weapons were lost, and they flew away after turning their horses. On the battlefield, if one person takes the lead to escape, then there are more people to follow, first of all, only a few small silver streams are escaping in the future, but after half an hour of hard and fierce battle, there is already a hopeless chance to win Most of them fled timidly!
And how can the guards who are slain rise to let the enemy escape, not to mention that they have to avenge the 10,000 brothers, so they pursue it step by step and do not give the enemy a chance to relax. Obviously, although Fengyun Ride had fewer people than the Imperial Guards, the arrogance of the battle was gone at this time, but its escape speed was faster than their opponents, so it gradually opened the distance.
The soldiers have begun to flee, and Feng Yunqi’s two generals Lin Ji and Xiu Jiurong, martial arts are strong, and they are not like soldiers. They shoot down and cut down an enemy general in battle, and then see the army When he continued to flee, he also scolded, but the voice of helplessness could not be spread throughout the army. When several enemies were killed, they had to turn their horses and flee.
"General, did you order the whole army to pursue?" Le Yuan asked Dong Shufang, but his eager expression had long since expressed his own opinions.
Looking at Feng Yunqi who was constantly retreating and escaping in front of him, Dongshu frowned slightly, and for Fengyun Qi, whose reputation was far and wide, it was less than one hour before the battle, and the other party had no intention of fighting. It seemed that it was too easy to win. But as he glanced over the army with extremely high morale at this time, he still gave the order, "The whole army pursued!"
He has already surveyed this field, and he will never jump into Feng Xiyun's trap like a forward. Even if the opponent has a trick, with his 70,000 army, he does not believe that the opponent will succeed again!
"Yes!" Le Yuan led his life excitedly.
Under the command of the coach, the imperial guard suddenly started like a brown flood, chasing the fleeing wind and wind riding at full speed. It is necessary to cut the enemy under the knife to vent his anger! At this time, Feng Yunqi, who had escaped, had no intention of resisting at this time, but escaped fate back. The helmet and broken sword were lost along the road, and he was very embarrassed. In this escape, the sunset was hidden and the twilight quietly came.
"Submit, stop chasing!" Dong Shufang watched Luoying Mountain in front of him and ordered.
"General, why not chase?" Le Yuan was puzzled.
"It's dark." Dong Shufang watched all the rides that had fled into Luoying Mountain. "They escaped into the mountain forest and chased against us. It might be ambushed. They ordered to surround Luoying Mountain!"
Fen Yunqi, who had all fled into Luoying Mountain, took a short breath without chasing the soldiers, and then quickly and quickly climbed to Luoying Mountain.
In Luoying Mountain, Lin Ji murmured: "So far, everything is in line with the Lord's vision, and it is going smoothly."
"Come on, Lord may have been waiting for us for a long time." Xiu Rongrong ignored his words and accelerated his pace, leaving Lin Ji far away.
"It looks like a cute puppy can't wait to go back to its owner." Lin Ji behind him looked at the fast-moving back and started muttering again. It's just that his footsteps have also become very fast, but unfortunately no one has ever lost such words behind him!
