Bright Moonlit Night

It was late spring when Jin Yi recovered from his injury. It has been more than half a year since late autumn last year.War is a waste of money, material and manpower. "A man who fights for a long time will benefit the country will not have it." No matter the enemy or us, it seems that there is some meaning that they do not want to be deadlocked and exhausted.

Jin Yi sat down again and discussed a new combat strategy with a group of advisers and generals.If Xixia hadn't changed their generals, they might still have to fight hard, but now the opposing generals are from the city who are unwilling to go straight and prefer to outsmart them, which instead gave Jin Yi an opportunity for them to take advantage of.

Before the final battle, apart from the smoke of cooking and the sound of soldiers practicing, there was no other movement inside and outside Longshuo Pass. Occasionally, birds flew by in the sky, and there were even a few wild donkeys wandering around in the deserted wilderness.

The sun is perfectly round, from east to west, illuminating this ancient and desolate land.

Jin Yi decided to go to Xianquan Town.He set off at Shen Shi and arrived at You Shi.When we arrived outside the gate of the Fangyi Museum, the sky was slanted by the setting sun, dyeing the town like a painting.

Fang Fan was brushing his camel, the camel was docile and allowed him to do anything, but his expression was peaceful, his movements were gentle and careful, one person and one camel, facing each other silently in the sunset, which surprised Jin Yi.

"General Jin?" Fang Fan put down his brush, turned around and saw Jin Yi, and asked, "Is there something to do here at this time?"

Jin Yishao stepped forward, approached and said, "Can you walk with me?"

Fang Fan thought for a while, "Okay. Wait a minute." He led the camel into the shed, put the food and grass, came back to Jin Yi, and asked, "Where does the general want to go?"

"Let's go out on a quieter road."

Fang Fan nodded, "The general will follow me."

The two went out, turned from the street into the alley, turned around twice, and came to a secluded path with slanting lights, not far away, the fairy spring stream was gurgling, carrying the golden waves of the full stream.

The two were speechless all the way, and after walking for a while, it was Jin Yi who said first: "You really care about your mount."

Fang Fan smiled and said: "You mean the little camel? It has been with me since it was born." After understanding Jin Yi's eyes, Fang Fan continued to explain: "When it was born, its mother died of dystocia. , I just helped, and the owner gave it to me as a thank you for visiting the doctor during those days. The little camel is very good and grows fast."

Jin Yi nodded, knowing that Fu Ming was always close to birds and animals.

The two were speechless again, and after a while, it was still Jin Yixian who said, "Thank you a few days ago."

Fang Fan smiled, "The general has already thanked you, and I have given you all the gifts, so there is no need to be polite."

"It's not a trivial matter, I should thank you a few times." Jin Yi didn't know how to speak after finishing his polite words, he was full of words, picking and choosing, but none of them dared to speak.He has never hesitated, but he couldn't help but have a lot of worries about the person next to him, and restrained himself from being careful.

Fang Fan seemed to have sensed Jin Yi's hesitation, and said, "It's enough for the general to treat me as an ordinary friend." Without waiting for Jin Yi's response, he asked again, "Has the general recovered?"

Jin Yi had no choice but to answer, nodded and said: "With your careful care in the past few days, I have recovered now."

Fang Fan asked again: "Then our army is going to make a big move?"

Jin Yi smiled, "Doctor Fang is as intelligent as my old friend."

Fang Fan was neither happy nor annoyed when he heard the words, now he guessed why Jin Lai came to him.

The decisive battle is imminent, no matter how sure Jin Yi is, there is still an unpredictable outcome in the matter of victory and defeat. In the battlefield of life and death, it is hard to say whether it will be a safe and triumphant return or a heroic fragrance.Jin Yi will not back down from the battle, but he still has concerns.

Fang Fan walked forward a few steps quickly, stopped again, turned around and asked Jin Yi: "Can you lend me your sword?"

Jin Yi took the sword from his waist and handed it to Fang Fan. Fang Fan drew the sword out of its sheath.But instead of returning the sword to Jin Yi, he took out a peace knot from his bosom and tied it to the sword.

"A few days ago, I learned how to make it from others, and paid tribute to the Bodhisattva."

Jin Yi took the sword that Fang Fan handed back, as if he had a weight in his hand.A small peace knot made him feel like a treasure.

Perhaps it was Fang Fan's behavior that encouraged Jin Yi, and he finally said: "What I said before I fell into a coma that day was the truth, not because of a moment of dizziness or impulsiveness."

Fang Fan understood what he was referring to as soon as he heard it, but he didn't answer, just nodded.

"In the future, I have more things to say to you. Therefore, I will come back." It is not only self-motivation, but also Fang Fan's promise.

Fang Fan smiled and nodded when he heard the words, as if encouraging.

Jin Yi was happy in his heart, but he also knew that this was just a kind response from the other party under special circumstances, and it did not mean that Fang Fan planned to fulfill himself from the bottom of his heart.

The two of them walked for a while while talking, and the sunset was already dark, so they turned back and walked up the road again.

Saishang has a wide field of vision, the sky is high and the earth is far away in front of him, everything is so far away, except the people around him.

There was more silence than words, only the sound of footsteps was surprisingly consistent, and it was unbearable to stop.But there is always an end to the road. As we walked, we returned to the street. Fang Fan asked Jin Yi: "Do you want to go inside and sit down? Have a cup of hot tea before returning?"

Jin Yi shook his head and said: "I have to go back. Keep this cup of tea for now, and come to taste it another day." It's not that he doesn't have the time for this cup of tea, but he will be even more reluctant to leave after entering, so he simply leaves and stays. Think about it.

Fang Fan did not force him to stay, Jin Yi untied the horse rope, and Fang Fan sent him to the street corner, where a dusty willow tree took root here.

Jin Yi got on the horse here, and Fang Fan stroked his horse's head, seeming to say to the horse but also to him: "Go, see you later."

Jin Yi smiled back: "Goodbye."

The horse neighed, the wind entered the hooves lightly, and the horse and its rider quickly merged into the boundless night.

That night, Jin Yi received a secret report, saying that the Western Region armies in the enemy's allied forces withdrew because they were dissatisfied with the lack of actual combat results. At this time, the army had already left Xiaolongshuo.

At dawn, Jin Yi led his army out of the customs and approached the Xixia barracks. Xixia hurriedly fought, lost, and fled in a hurry.Jin led the army to chase death and chase the north, and the enemy army approached Xiaolongshuo.

The enemy army suddenly turned around, not as imposing as before. The enemy general Li Xu laughed and said, "Young boy from the Jin family, you are still wet! If you fall into my trap, wait for the horse to wrap your body!"

The two armies fought head-on, but the enemy seemed to be waiting, and did not try their best at first.However, Jin Yisuo led the soldiers without regard for their own lives, killing the opponent continuously and retreating in succession.Half an hour later, the situation had not changed, and Li Xu was still able to hold his breath; an hour later, when the outcome was close, Li Xu was already a little restless, and frequently sent out spies.

Another half an hour later, the spies reported that the army had come from the rear. Li Xu was overjoyed, but he immediately learned that it was not the army from the Western Regions who had pretended to withdraw, but the army led by Jiang Yisun!

Jiang Yisun led Jin Yiming to take advantage of the fact that the enemy army was held back by Jin Yi's main force, and detoured to guard Xiaolongshuo, blocking the Western Regions who had turned back to death outside the pass. Besieged by the army, the enemy army, which had already been beaten into chaos, suffered a change and was soon defeated.

Using his own way to treat his own body, the other party wanted to catch a turtle in the urn, but he didn't want to send himself into the urn instead.

This battle was fought from early morning to dark, and finally the enemy general Li Xu was captured alive. He killed [-] enemies and took [-] prisoners. The rest of the enemy soldiers were wounded and fled.

Until the army won and returned to the camp, some small teams sent by Jin Yi to guard Xianquan Town and other towns in the pass just in case also received orders one after another and withdrew their troops at night.Coming and going quietly, did not wake up the sleeping people.

After Jin Yi returned to the camp, he assigned and handled the follow-up military affairs one by one, such as placement of prisoners, treatment of wounded soldiers, arrangement of guards and patrols, sending military reports to the court, etc... It was not until late at night that he was able to calm down around him.

He hadn't taken off his battle robe, his sword hadn't been wiped, and his whole body was bloody, full of the blood of the sword.

After sitting alone for a while, he got up, took off his battle robe, and wiped the blade.

The candlelight reflected the darkened blood stains, showing his bravery and achievements as a general, but at this moment, he had long since lost the high-spirited spirit he felt when he retreated from the army and returned with a big victory. desolate.His parents taught him since he was a child that, as the son of a general, he was destined to be on the battlefield and live a life of bloodshed.He has already made sufficient psychological preparations, and has already gone through many experiences. When he holds the sword in his hand, he never hesitates, kills neatly, and is invincible.But maybe it was because of Fu Ming, he had lost it before, he knew what it was like to say goodbye to the one he loved the most, and after he understood that his life was no longer just his own, so the people he killed were not just enemies. They are nothing more than soldiers, they are also living people, someone in someone's dream.So in the dead of night, when he was alone with Bloody, his heart was no longer calm.But he will never regret it. It is his duty to guard the frontier and defend the country. If he does not try his best to fight today, then not only the soldiers under his command will shed blood, but also the people in the country. Anyone who suffers any kind of pain.

The sword became heavier and more stable in his hand.He doesn't take killing as his career, and doesn't take pleasure in meritorious deeds, but he has to kill wherever the sword goes, and the protection behind the sword is the common people.

At this point, he finally understood his grandfather's legacy: Jin's son, only if he understands the weight of swords, spears, swords and halberds, he is worthy of serving as a general immediately.

And this night, not only did he stay up late at night, Fang Fan also stayed up all night in Xianquan Town. Take it easy.
