Tan Muqiu watched helplessly as the man entered "his" camp, and after a while the man came out to deliver the order, and then the Red Maple Camp began to gather quickly.

"The Red Maple Battalion is under orders...you can't go." Tan Muqiu ran to the assembled soldiers, but was grabbed by the guards.He fought hard and slapped the soldier, but with this body, his strength was far inferior to before, so he was easily defeated.

"Let me go, take me to see that smelly Taoist priest, you will kill me, you will kill him..." He was caught, unable to resist, he could only let go of his throat and shouted, attracting many people to stop and watch .Seeing this, the soldier had no choice but to slap him on the back of the neck, and he immediately lost consciousness.

Qin Muqiu came out of the camp, wearing armor and holding a halberd in his hand.The Red Maple Battalion had already assembled, and he didn't even mobilize before the battle. He just stepped on Hongfeng, shouted "Let's go", then turned his horse's head and ran towards the battlefield. The Red Maple Battalion followed closely behind, like a whole In general, there is a good understanding.

The snow did not see light, and the wind blew up again.

On the top of the city of Guzhou, Zhao Qingming folded his arms and looked down at the soldiers fighting under the tower. He had never been on a battlefield, and this was the first time he saw a sword piercing a human body at close range.However, this did not move him. This scene seemed to be similar to what he had imagined.

Yu Yun, who was riding on a horse, was extremely heroic, and the long knife in his hand was reciprocating, killing several people.Zhao Qingming looked at Yu Yun and thought, is that person like this on the battlefield?When the hand is raised and the knife is dropped, countless people will die.

However, that person used a long halberd, if he killed someone, the scene would only be bloodier than this.No matter what, Zhao Qingming couldn't imagine what it was like when that person killed someone.

He stood on the top of the tower at first, still a little apprehensive, the Chang Ning army attacked the city, and the Hongfeng Battalion was an elite group, so it should be here.However, when he confirmed that the Red Maple Battalion did not go to battle, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but he was also secretly disappointed.That day when I went to Chang Ning Army, I couldn't see the other party. If I still can't see him today, this trip will be in vain.

Standing at a corner of the tower, Zhao Qingming felt that the scene of killing and killing was really boring, so he couldn't help being distracted.He inadvertently glanced at a place a few feet away from him, standing a person, that person was wearing black clothes, wearing a face scarf, holding a longbow in his hand, and a few arrows hanging from his back.

This person seemed to have been standing here for a long time, but he didn't see him let go of an arrow. Zhao Qingming couldn't help but sized him up a few more times.The man in black clothes never looked at Zhao Qingming from the beginning to the end, but just stared intently at the battlefield, as if looking for his prey.

There was a sudden commotion on the tower, and Zhao Qingming followed the eyes of everyone to look down, and couldn't help being stunned.In the distance, Qin Muqiu in armor galloped forward leading the Red Maple Battalion.Even though the distance was extremely far, Zhao Qingming still recognized the other party at a glance.

He couldn't believe his eyes. Is that man in military uniform and holding a halberd really that person?It's not wrong, there is absolutely no other person in the world who can subdue the Hongfeng that that person is riding, even if he is riding with that person, Hongfeng will show a little face.

In a short time, the man entered the battlefield, and the situation of the battle was immediately reversed.The Chang Ning army, who had been somewhat defeated before, rekindled their fighting spirit.

Zhao Qingming's gaze was always fixed on the man on Hong Feng's back, and he didn't dare to slack off at all, for fear that the man might make a mistake.A distance away from a city wall, Zhao Qingming and this man who had been separated for seven years finally met again.

"Boom..." There was a muffled sound.

Zhao Qingming was startled, and immediately realized what it was, it was Huo Lei, and they actually planted Huo Lei at the gate of the city.

Amidst the intermittent explosions, the figure only panicked for a short time, then regained its composure, and began to command the Red Maple Battalion to retreat.Zhao Qingming watched the explosions around the man again and again, and his heart was in his throat.

Seeing that the man was about to withdraw with the Red Maple Camp, the man suddenly reined in his horse and looked back towards the tower.Zhao Qingming's heart froze, but he couldn't tell whether the other person was looking at him, and then he saw an arrow in the man's chest and fell off the horse.

The whole world seemed to be still. For a moment, Zhao Qingming couldn't hear or see anything, only the figure who fell off the horse was in his eyes.He felt that his heart seemed to be broken at that moment with that person's fall.

However, the next moment, he realized what real heartbreak is.

Beside that person, a fire mine suddenly exploded, and then the person was blown to pieces.

The man in black put away his longbow and quickly left the tower.Zhao Qingming stood where he was, his eyes were empty.

Seven years ago, Tan Heng, the commander of the Red Maple Battalion, died in battle. It was already late autumn when the news of his death reached Zhongdu.At that time, Zhao Qingming was still studying with the prince, and he was chatting with several other teenagers in the garden where the red maples were planted in the palace.

At the end of autumn, the red maple tree was still fiery red. Zhao Qingming sat in the yard, and the fiery red tree would catch his eyes from time to time, making this young man even more energetic.

"Hey, you guys heard that Shuai Tan died in battle." A young man stepped into the yard quickly, speaking surprisingly.

"Who did you hear that Shuai Tan is the number one military general in Dayu? The Red Maple Battalion under his command is brave and invincible. They can defeat a hundred with one man, so how could they be defeated?" Shang Waiting, who was sitting next to Zhao Qingming, said.

"The Red Maple Battalion was not defeated, but Shuai Tan died in battle." The man who entered the door added.

Shang waited to turn his head to look at Zhao Qingming. He knew that the Zhao family and the Qin family were close, so he subconsciously looked at Zhao Qingming's reaction.

Zhao Qingming was stunned for a while, glanced at the red maple plant, then suddenly got up and ran out of the garden.He ran all the way out of the palace gate, got his horse, and arrived at the Qin Mansion without any delay.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Qin Mansion, he knew that the news was true.There were two big white lanterns hanging at the gate of Qin's residence, with big "Dian" written on them in black letters.

The news of the death has just arrived, but the body has not yet arrived, so there is no one in the Qin residence at this time, only the servants in mourning clothes are busy.He rushed all the way to the mourning hall, and saw Tan Muqiu kneeling there alone.The 14-year-old boy in front of him was kneeling in a daze, neither crying nor speaking.

"I'm here." Zhao Qingming knelt beside Tan Muqiu, and pulled him into his arms, his own eyes were reddened first.

Tan Muqiu was silent for a while, and then said, "They said my father died in battle, but when you said he died, did it hurt?"

Zhao Qingming frowned, not knowing how to answer.Tan Heng went out to fight and was away from the central capital all year round. Tan Muqiu might have almost forgotten the other party's appearance.When he first heard the news of the other party's death, Tan Muqiu must have not reacted yet, so he didn't cry.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qingming hugged him even tighter, and said: "I heard that people who have been fighting all the year round don't feel pain when they are cut with knives. Your father is the most powerful general in Dayu, so it shouldn't hurt. of."

Tan Muqiu asked again after hearing the words: "You said, my father is dead, does he still remember me?"

"Do you want him to remember you?" Zhao Qingming asked.

"I don't know either." Tan Muqiu said, "I've heard people say that if a person dies, if there is someone he can't let go of, he won't be able to reincarnate and will suffer underground. I don't know if my father can let me go."

"Let it go, man, there is nothing you can't let go of." Zhao Qingming said.

Qin Muqiu burst into tears when he heard the words, and Zhao Qingming kept hugging him, patted his back lightly with one hand, and said nothing.

After crying for nearly half an hour, tired of crying, Tan Muqiu leaned on Zhao Qingming, sobbing slowly, and said: "My father is dead, and I have lost all my relatives." cry.

Zhao Qingming hugged him tightly, weeping silently, and said in a deep voice: "He's gone, and I'm still there. If I don't leave, I won't leave for the rest of my life."

The two of them hugged like this, crying and talking for a while until late at night.

"If one day you die in front of me, will you let me go?" Qin Muqiu asked, still kneeling, leaning on Zhao Qingming.

Zhao Qingming said: "No, even if you can't be reincarnated and suffer underground, I won't let you go."

Tan Muqiu shed another stream of tears and said, "Me too, I won't let you go."

"No, if you die before me, you will let me go and reincarnate. If I don't die, I will definitely find you. If I die too, I will find you in the next life." Zhao Qingming said.

Tan Muqiu hugged Zhao Qingming's waist, buried his head on the other's shoulder, cried silently again, then raised his head and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The snow did not know when it had stopped.

When Zhao Qingming came back to his senses, he was already under the tower.There is a person standing next to him, it is Shang Waiting, this person is the leader of the guards who led the guards to escort Wang Xing and others this time.Yesterday Wang Xing and the others had set off to return to Zhongdu. Shangwai knew that Zhao Qingming was going to stay, firstly they were waiting for the man who was detained in Changning's army, secondly they might want to meet Tan Muqiu, so they stayed with him.

Unexpectedly, what Zhao Qingming saw today was Tan Muqiu's last face.

When Shang waited to find Zhao Qingming on the tower, he couldn't bear to see that his opponent seemed to have lost his soul.He got along with the other party since childhood, and later joined the Habayashi Army together, he can be regarded as one of the few friends of the other party.

"Qingming, my condolences will change." Shang waited to pat the other party on the shoulder, really not knowing what to say.

Zhao Qingming forced a smile with the corners of his mouth pulled, and said, "Go back, it's really cold outside." As he spoke, he walked into the city, staggered on the flat ground, and nearly fell.Shang waited to reach out to help him up, and then silently followed behind him.

Zhao Qingming walked in the snowy Guzhou City, surrounded by many soldiers and pedestrians, his footsteps seemed to get heavier every time he took a step, until later, in the ice and snow, he was sweating profusely and had difficulty breathing.

Seven years ago was life and separation, today is death and separation.He finally realized that he had lost his love forever.
