beautiful heart

In the next few days, Song Wu continued to attack the capital city, and the offensive became more and more fierce every day. Although they were all beaten down by the soldiers of the capital city in the end, the morale of Dongzhou was getting worse day by day. The reason was either The army is leaderless.

But after a few days, Beishan Ding still couldn’t find a suitable general. One of them only had theoretical knowledge but no actual combat experience, which reminded her of Zhao Kuo, who only talked about wars on paper during the Warring States Period. Obviously, it is difficult to take on this important task, but at the same time Song Wu is attacking more and more fiercely.

You can't keep your promises, and you can't entrust them to those who believe. Kitayama can only go to the battlefield by herself. In order to improve morale, one of the things she does after leading the army is to make speeches, so that the people and soldiers believe that the final victory belongs to them. .

When she was in college, Kitayama Sada once participated in a speech and won the No.1 in the whole school, so she understood the effect of speech can bring, and also believed that she could persuade soldiers and common people, as long as the will is strong, everything is possible.

"A few days ago, King Qi sent his most powerful general to attack us. Why? Because in his eyes, we are no longer his people but his enemies! Our crops were destroyed by him! Our relatives were destroyed by him. Kill! Do you support such a king? Are you still willing to be his people?" The last two sentences of Beishan Ding asked very loudly and excitedly.

The people and soldiers standing under the stage look at me and I look at you and you dare not answer, because the education they have received since childhood is that the king is not to be discussed, "I don't want to! We don't want such a king!" Suddenly someone shouted , followed by a high-pitched echo.

"Our peaceful life has been disrupted, and our homeland is being invaded. If we don't drive them out of Dongzhou, we will be the ones who will be driven away! God is on the side of justice, so it will definitely be on our side, But if we don't fight the enemy bravely..." Beishan Ding became more and more excited as he spoke, as if Shuishou was waiting outside for her to defeat.

But the fact is that when she was giving a speech, the enemy army launched a general attack again. Not only was the momentum huge, but it also had a tendency to attack the city wall. Seeing this, the city defenders hurriedly sent people to report that Beishan would immediately launch the attack on the scene. All the soldiers went to the tower to fight against the enemy, even she went to the tower herself.

When they arrived at the city tower, someone from the enemy army rushed up from the ladder. Their own soldiers and the enemy's soldiers fought together. Blood was everywhere on the wall and the ground. Flowing like a river, but the offensive remains unabated.

It was not the first time that Bei Shanding had seen the battlefield, and she had seen even worse scenes than this one, but it still shocked her a lot. An enemy soldier saw her wearing a Chinese costume and stabbed her directly. If there were not guards and Instinctively, she almost fell for it.

The situation is critical, and Beishan will not want to invest a lot of manpower to protect himself at this time, so he immediately asks Wen Zhong and others to help, while he draws out his sword and prepares to fight the enemy to the end. The sword, like her hands, has never been stained with blood , but when you don't kill others, others will kill you, you finally get involved, and the more you get involved.

When the sword pierced into the enemy's body, Bei Shanding heard the sound of bone cracking and saw blood splattering rapidly. This was her first time killing people. She thought she had already adapted to everything here, including killing, but her His hands were still shaking, trembling.

Under the resolute resistance of Beishan Dinghe and a group of soldiers, the enemy retreated again, and the capital city was preserved. The people and soldiers of Dongzhou were all happy. The generals under his command scolded bloody heads and gave orders to attack the city again tomorrow morning.

That night, Beishan Ding's leg hurt badly, exactly the same as the last time in the mountain city. It was obviously a prelude to snow. Thinking that Song Wu still had about [-] troops, he expected that the opponent would launch another attack tomorrow morning, and immediately asked someone to pour the water On all the walls, snow began to fall in the second half of the night.

In the early morning of the next day, the walls of the entire capital city were like ice sculptures, bright and smooth, not to mention climbing up and putting up a ladder, the ladder would also fall down. Seeing that a hard attack was not enough, Wu Song asked the generals to challenge him. Bei Shanding learned Generals were sent out to fight in advance, but after several inquiries, no one was willing to fight.

When I asked, I found out that many generals had suffered from the enemy generals, so they were timid and no one responded. "Xiaochen is willing to go." When Bei Shanding planned to go by himself, a general standing far away immediately stood up. "Immediate battle without delay" The enemy's drums are getting louder and louder, obviously impatient.

The general was half suspicious and half worried, and walked out without looking back. In order to better watch the battle in Beishan, the general was very brave. The enemy will be killed and the horse will be dismounted.

But Beishan Ding, who stood on the top of the city tower and watched carefully, found that the young general looked familiar and immediately asked the ministers around him. Unexpectedly, he was really an "acquaintance". Tou Li Shan's son Li Chang, as Shui Jialing expected, Li Chang later joined the army as he wished.

Because of his natural supernatural power, he was promoted from soldier to cavalry in just a few months. Although it is the lowest position of military commander, he is more than twice as strong as his father.Dongzhou finally won the long-lost victory again. Although it was only a small victory, his morale improved instantly.

In order to end the war as soon as possible, and for the people to have a good year, Beishan decided to use a two-pronged approach, not only confronting the enemy on the frontal battlefield, but also secretly dispatching a strong force to cut off the opponent's food road. Without supplies such as food and clothing, even the gods could not last a few days in the enemy's army.

"My lord's subordinates received a secret report that Song Wu will withdraw his troops secretly tonight because the food road has been cut off." Li Chang was ordered to investigate the enemy's situation. With first-hand news, he immediately rushed back to report to Bei Shanding.

"Very good. Immediately lead two thousand elite soldiers to ambush where they must pass, and kill them as soon as the opponent arrives. At that time, the Marquis will lead people to kill him from the rear. You will be caught off guard by attacking him backwards and forwards." Seeing Victory is in Wangbeishan, but he can't be happy at all.

That night Song Wu really withdrew secretly as Li Chang had inquired about, and the two sides fought a big battle in a place with dense forests and narrow roads. Taking advantage of the darkness and chaos, he managed to escape.

Since then, Dongzhou has been temporarily peaceful, because even if Wu Song is not willing to attack again, he will have to wait until the beginning of spring next year. The north is no better than the south. Winter comes early and goes late, and it may take several months, so a peaceful year is a must. Absolutely no problem.

The next day, Beishan decided to host a banquet to entertain the ministers to celebrate the victory of the war, and rewarded a large amount of wine and meat to each military camp as a reward, and gave special preferential treatment to the families of the war dead.

Li Chang was promoted to General Zuozhong by Beishan because of his military exploits, and the rest of the meritorious people were also rewarded according to their meritorious deeds, and those who had done something were naturally punished. Among them, Xu Chang was the most severely punished. The salary is fined, which is really happy and sad for several families.

"Wen Zhong, but there is news." After the banquet, Bei Shanding went back to the study. There were still many things to be done. She wanted to finish the things here quickly so that she could leave, so she slept very late for several nights.

"My lord still has no news about the young lady. It's getting late, please rest early." Wen Zhong always knew that his lord was thinking about his young lady, but he didn't expect to be so persistent, and he was a little worried about his health.

"I'm resting in the study tonight, no need for guards, go down and rest first." The hope and anticipation that filled my heart became numb after being poured with cold water again, just like the hand of Beishan Dingzheng holding a writing brush that had been frozen and unconscious.

The moment Beishan knew that Shui Jialing had left, Beishan must have felt that the sky was getting dark. She has always known her whereabouts whether Shui Jialing was around or not, so she was never panicked and always at ease, but this time she completely lost contact. , I don't know where she is, nor do I know if she is doing well.

It seems that the whole world has become strange in an instant, and I can no longer find the feeling of peace in the past. Bei Shanding once thought about throwing everything away to find Shui Jialing, even if he traveled all over the world to find her, but the remaining sliver of reason tells She can't, because she has to realize the responsibilities on her shoulders and the dreams she once had.

So she can only do what she should do while searching like this. What should she do?Beishan definitely doesn't know, and doesn't want to know, but the fact is that she knows it well, and she knows it better than anyone else, so she not only has to do it, but also does her best.

That night, Beishan decided to write the memorial as before until very late. Although his eyes seemed to be sleeping, his heart couldn't sleep. Either he wanted Shui Jialing like this or Shui Jialing like that, so that the short rest ended hastily, and the sky was still alive. Before the light came on, he left the mansion by the back door in a sedan chair.

Apart from the bearer, there were only four people accompanying her, including Wen Zhong. Obviously, Beishan did not want too many people to know where she was going. The sedan chair walked eastward after leaving the State Shepherd's Mansion. Although the small lantern was not very bright, it was still there. It illuminates the darkness before dawn.

"The sinful minister did not know that the lord is coming, and he is far away, please forgive me." Xu Chang was happy and flattered when he learned that the lord had come to his mansion secretly. In addition, he was also mixed with guilt and self-blame. The defeat in the war is still brooding.

"Those who don't know are not guilty, the general please hurry up, I'm bothering you when you visit late at night." Helping Xu Chang up, the two of them entered Xu's mansion through the gate one after the other, and the white snow that had not completely melted was dazzling.

"Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Generals don't have to worry about it. Come and carry things up." As soon as Bei Shanding's voice fell, Wen Zhong and Ma Ren walked in carrying a small box. It was all silver, "This Marquis fined you a year's salary, these are for your family."

"I'm terrified, I'm afraid I'll be ashamed of receiving it." Xu Chang didn't expect that it was full of silver, and he was terrified. Although he cared a little, it was just that he didn't defeat the enemy. He didn't care that much about salary, but he didn't care. It doesn't mean you don't like it.

Who doesn't love money in today's troubled times?No, unless he is a fool, so Xu Chang is no exception; and power is even worse, with it, an idiot can be treated politely, without it, no matter how smart you are, you are just like an ant, and you may be trampled to death by a giant at any time.

"Not only the money is yours, but the position of the general of Dongzhou is also yours. I have wronged you!" Speaking of this, Beishan patted Xu Chang on the shoulder, "This Marquis knows that you are not fully responsible for the defeat, and I am sorry for your surrender!" The official punishment is also a last resort." A general's eyes turned red when he heard it.

"My lord and princess gave me everything I have today, and I can only repay your kindness by dying." Xu Chang didn't expect that the lord came to his house in the middle of the night to give him money and comfort himself, and he was very angry immediately. Moved and saluted again and again.

After arranging everything in Dongzhou, Beishan Ding left with Wen Zhong and the other four people just like when he came, because he left at night and didn't disclose it to anyone, so he left very smoothly and there was no reluctant parting scene , and left Dongzhou within a few days.

When Beishan was in Dongzhou State Shepherd's Mansion, Beishan would not dare to go to the room where she and Shui Jialing used to be, so that he was busy with affairs every day and slept in the study room. They are all used to deal with government affairs.
