The sun was blazing and the wind was howling. Lin Chong rode his horse along the mountain road all the way to the south.
He has been an arrester in Vaud for several years, and he knows most of the situation around him. He knows that if the Jurchen really wants to intercept this news, he can use a lot of power, and it can be seen from the fact that such forces as Tongniu Village have been activated. , which is by no means lacking the shadow of the local snake. This way, we walked along the small road near the official road, walking cautiously, but after walking for less than half a day, I saw a figure shaking in the distance in the woods.
This mountain road is independent of the official road going south, and it is relatively desolate. Ordinary people do not take it. Those who choose this side are often high-roller thieves with a green forest background. In a similar wasteland, there are not a few robbers who kill people and steal goods. The forest in front is obviously with amazing eyesight. Maybe there are hunters and scouts from the military background. Rush into the sky.
Lin Chong rode his horse straight into the woods, dodged the two arrows, jumped up on the treetop, grabbed the scout and killed him. At the end of his field of vision, a disturbed figure was already approaching.
These are probably some bandits or nearby villagers who make a living by looting, armed with knives, sticks, forks and rakes, and swarmed in ragged clothes. Lin Chong sighed in his heart and rushed out along the inclined road. The hills on King Jin's site are rugged. The tall and low trees in the forest are scattered, and the stones in the bushes are intertwined like canine teeth. He abandoned his mount and walked forward at a high speed. Three people rushed towards him. On the ground, he hit his head with blood, and the other person was stunned for a while, unable to catch up with Lin Chong's footsteps.
When the large group of troops came to encircle, Lin Chong had already climbed a rugged ridge on one side. His steps were nimble and his body was as light as a cheetah.
The wind was fierce, and his grandmaster's skills traveled all the way through the mountains and ridges. Occasionally, his expression went up to the official road, and he hid among the pedestrians, but this way, the speed slowed down. At this time, he had already left the boundary of Vau State, and after walking for a while, he saw the yamen at the checkpoint in front of him patrolling, and the inspection was very strict.
Lin Chong has been a yamen for so many years, and at first sight he knew that these people were consciously searching. Presumably there were also officials in the nearby yamen who were manipulated by Jurchen. Yesterday's bandits in Tongniu Village were not killed. Being able to detect the defense first, he pressed the roster in his arms, quietly separated from the crowd, and went around the mountain.
I have been away from all kinds of "family and national affairs" for too long over the years, and when I think about it, I can sense the tension in the middle. King Jin's forces were verbally submissive to Jurchen, but secretly, they had already begun to fight hard, preparing to go anyway. In the middle, I don't know how many people have seen enough of Jurchen's swords and guns, and are unwilling to send them to death.
As soon as this roster goes down, the contradiction between the two sides will intensify. Whether it is true or false, many forces have obviously been awakened in the dark and began to take risks. On the other side, the anti-gold faction of the King Jin force is also watching carefully. , secretly jotting down a real list.
Regardless of whether it is true or false, he can only finish this road well.
He thought about these things clearly in his mind, and he did not stop at his feet, all the way west and then south, crossing two rivers on the way. The sunset was getting red on this day. He was walking on the road and remembered that he had seen such sunsets with Xu Jinhua and his children many times in the past few years. Moving forward, he saw what he saw in Liangshan Shuibo and Bianliang. He still remembers the sunset.
This day, the footsteps did not stop, and they traveled back and forth for nearly two hundred miles. In the early morning, they gradually arrived near Leping, Liaozhou. Yu Yulin ruled the army here, and the army was stationed for several miles. There are also small towns built for the army nearby. In the middle of the night, the barracks could not be broken into. Lin Chong stopped in the nearby mountains, preparing to find a way to enter in the morning.
Since Xu Jinhua's death, he has not rested for several nights. This night, he sat under the tree and closed his eyes, still unable to sleep. As the memories surged, pain and empty emotions still filled everything. For him, life is nothing to worry about, and the sobriety in his mind can't wash away regrets. Everything that has been lost is lost after all. Only he still faces the result of losing everything.
The stars flowed, and when I opened my eyes, the barracks in the distance flickered and swam endlessly, and this sparse but endless fire was like a memory. The sleepless nights were long and hard, like walking through a long, dark cave. When the sky was white with fish belly, Lin Chong was absent-minded for a long time. In the military camp in the distance, the early morning training had already started.
Lin Chong quietly went down the mountain and walked along the camp. Rather than rushing into the camp, he hoped to meet General Yu Yulin when he left the camp. He had seen this general from a distance in the past, but such hope was obviously slim. At this time, Lin Chong was dressed in embarrassed and shabby clothes, but his figure was like a ghost. He circled around the barracks aimlessly for a few times, and stayed near the camp gate for a long time before finally finding a breakthrough.
It was a vanguard general in Yu Yulin's army, named Li Shuangyou, who was quite famous among the people in the area under the jurisdiction of King Jin. Lin Chong not only met him twice near Wozhou, but also knew that this general had a hot and upright temperament and was fighting against Jin. People have a good reputation. He passed this camp at this time, and when he saw that General Li was patrolling the school grounds and was about to leave, he immediately jumped out of the hiding place and shouted inside, "General Li!"
Someone from the nearby arrow tower shouted, "Who is it!" Li Shuangyou glanced at this end from a distance, frowned, and saw the big man outside the camp raising his hand, walking towards the barracks fence: "Black flag news!"
Lin Chong said something, thought about it, and said, "It's a big deal, please report it to General Yulin!"
His voice was loud, word by word, and everyone on the school ground made a sound. In the past few days, it is not clear to chase and block others for the sake of this roster, and I am afraid that many internal soldiers have heard of it. Li Shuangyou was already guarded by the personal guards. Hearing Lin Chong's words, he was about to push the guards away and walked forward with fists clasped: "The messenger is a strong man?" Then he said, "Send someone to inform the commander immediately. "
Lin Chong knew that the letter had finally been delivered. Seeing the attitude of the other party, he leaped forward and counted points on his feet before crossing the barracks fence several feet high: "A matter of loyalty," he said.
Seeing Lin Chong's ability, Li Shuangyou bowed his hands and stopped coming. Lin Chong stood on the edge of the school field, waiting for Yu Yulin to arrive. It was only morning, the sky didn't get too hot, there were a few clouds floating in the sky, and the cool breeze on the school ground was very pleasant. Lin Chong stood there with a dazed expression.
I don't know when, the soldier who sent a message from a distance came back again and reported to Li Shuangyou that General Yu was coming. Li Shuangyou cupped his hands to Lin Chong: "Strong man, General Yu has arrived, please." Lin Chong came back to his senses, nodded, and followed him toward the front.
The group passed through the soldiers on the school ground. Li Shuangyou had already slowed down and was waiting for him. Lin Chong and him were getting closer, and the soldiers nearby were also getting closer. His eyes moved slightly, and he noticed the rapid heartbeat. Lin Chong's eyes were bitter and he sighed.
Li Shuangyou cupped his hands, and Lin Chong approached and stretched out his hand. His steps were natural, and his hand stretched out naturally. His arms crossed, Lin Chong grabbed him and rushed forward.
Countless figures spread over.
"Kill the traitor"
Lin Chong hit the man on the neck with a heavy hand, and the man in front rolled to the ground.
Then, he also heard shouts around him.
Lin Chong pushed Li Shuangyou and smashed the seven or eight people in front of him into a ball, and more people rushed over. During the high-speed running, the opponent counterattacked, Lin Chong punched Li Shuangyou in the face, one punch, another punch, another punch, the blood and eyes flew out, and he stepped on the opponent's face that had already started to fall. Body, knees, chest, shoulders, Lin Chong's figure jumped over the heads of the soldiers in front, and then fell down with his elbows, rolled, collided, and the light of the sword and the wind of the gun intertwined, just like Lin Hai, Lin Chong waving a steel knife, Sticky blood splattered, followed by slashing and swinging. The person in front died and was pushed up by the person behind. The advance of the army formation was like a huge wall and the earth, and Lin Chong's figure rose and fell in the sea of people...
"Kill this traitor"
There are people around shouting...
Crowds of people keep squeezing in...
************
It was as if something had been waiting for the end of time as promised, and at the moment when he was floating in the sea of people, there was no turbulence in his heart, and he even... seemed to have a feeling of anticipation.
The blade is vertical and horizontal, and he walks through the blade, the heavy arm will collapse the person's chest, the shield will be squeezed up, and he will break it into a circle, and the swing of the spear will bring more people to fall. , like painting the ground as a prison, in the prison, it is all dead, but more people will still rush over, he sometimes jumps out of the crowd and falls, and there is a seemingly endless distance in the distance.
The sun is shining, the voices are clamoring, there are fallen corpses on the ground, and there are wounded and trampled soldiers. Lin Chong stepped on the person, and the long spear he grabbed rushed out a zhang and then got stuck in the person's body and broke. , also directed at the oncoming sword mountain and spear forest, slashing out a sea of blood.
He expects that the other party is not a bad person.
Imagine that in front of these many soldiers, nothing will happen.
Such a result...
not good…
well...
The fist smashed a person's face, and the knife light slashed his back. He also remembered something, his body slammed into it, and he shouted out.
The thunderous voice of "Jurchen is going south" was forced by the internal force, and spread in all directions, like the roar of the waves crashing on the shore. "Black Flag Communication"
A few people in front fell to the ground rumblingly, Lin Chong grabbed the steel knife, rushed forward, and cut out a wave of blood according to the human leg. He walked forward against the wave of blood, and the long spear was stabbed downward, and Lin Chong's body followed the barrel of the spear. Squeeze and roll, knees knock a person flying, grab a long spear, and swept out.
The "Jurchen" three or four long spears were smashed by him, Lin Chong stabbed the spear point out and dragged it back, "going south"
"… Black Flag Communication!"
The voice spread in all directions, the crowd was stabbed through a gap, Lin rushed to it, and then the gap began to shrink again, and the boiling blood shot out.
The voice sounded again during the slaughter: "The Jurchen... go south! The black flag sends a message"
“…Black Flag Communication”
“…Black Flag Communication”
From far and near, many people heard this voice. The fighting in the camp was going on all the time. In the sea of people, advancing more than ten meters, countless swords and spears stabbed him. , are roaring the same sound.
Jurchen went south, and the black flag sent a message...
In the distance between the camps, a large group of people came, some shouted to stop, others shouted, this is a traitor, kill without mercy. The conflicting orders led to a more chaotic situation, but Lin Chong was in it, barely aware of it, he was just walking forward, mechanically shouting. Somewhere in my heart, I also felt a slight irony.
In his lifetime, he would actually shout out the word black flag.
The events on Liangshan reappeared in front of his eyes like a revolving lantern, and he would also think of the man named Ning Yi. He killed the emperor. It was really hateful and amazing.
During the fight, he saw birds flying in the sky.
nice weather.
Jurchen went south.
The black flag is coming.
He slashed the steel knife on the person in front of him mercilessly, and someone counterattacked, it was too slow, weak, flawed, dodged, painless...
Jurchen went south, and a message from the black flag came.
Brother Shi will save the child, that's great.
He's the real hero, it's great that these things won't happen to him...
As far as the blade reached, someone was already scared to the ground. Someone and horses rushed in from the side of the camp, and a battle sounded from the other side. Lin Chong carried his spear and walked all the way. In such a fierce battle, gradually, there was no enemy in front of him for a while, so he walked forward and opened his mouth.
Jurchen went south, and a message from the black flag came.
He couldn't hear it himself.
Then there was someone in front of him. The human wall tried to block him. Lin Chong was not afraid. He stepped forward and was ready to fight. Someone separated the human wall and greeted them in front.
Yu Yulin looked at the red figure approaching slowly. He was covered in blood and had countless wounds. Behind him, the fallen soldiers stretched all the way, which shocked him for a moment.
"The strong man..."
He took a deep breath: "Strong man, this commander Yu Yulin, are you the messenger?"
Lin Chong looked at him suspiciously. He stretched out his hand. He originally wanted to punch the person in front of him to death, but he finally turned his fist into a palm and grabbed his clothes. The guard wanted to come up, but Yu Yulin waved to stop him.
Lin Chong looked at him and took out a small bag from his arms. The bag was also stained with blood and had been slashed on the top, but because of Lin Chong's deliberate protection, it was the least injured part of his body. Yu Yulin tried to reach out to pick it up, but the blood man clenched the bag tightly and hung it in the air.
Yu Yulin took out the military talisman: "This will be Yulin, this is the talisman."
The blood man grabbed his collar and stood there for a long time, looking at the talisman for a long time, the sky was full of clouds, and Yu Yulin's soldiers were doing a big cleanup and search. Figures come and go again...
Jurchen went south, and a message from the black flag came.
He finally let go of his hand, and then even the hand on Yu Yulin's neckline.
At the end of things, there are always some extracurricular branches, and the world is always unsatisfactory, in all likelihood.
Lin Chong staggered and wanted to hold up a long spear, but the spear was gone, so he turned around and staggered away. It's time to go back to Brother Shi and save Anping.
"May I ask the strong man's surname and name..." Yu Yulin opened the package and glanced at it, handed it to the person behind him, turned around and asked, the person in front was already behind, "Go and call the doctor." He wanted to chase after him. , hold him up, ask his name, a righteous man in the rivers and lakes, who has done great things, even if he dies, he must make a name for him. This is the last consolation for them.
Lin Chong held onto the gun barrel on a corpse, then held it with both hands, and his body slid down. He struggled a bit, tried to stand up, and finally fell on his side and fell to the ground, then rolled and turned his back to the sky.
People gathered around: "strong man, your name is taboo..."
The man on the ground moved his lips and blinked his eyes. The blood in his eyes was red and blood slid across his cheeks and landed on the ground.
…
Zhenniang…
Like the end of time, with long, long tunnels…
He stood there, watching many, many people walking past, past Xu Jinhua, past Mu Yi, past the chaotic and restless Liangshanbo, there are many friends and many passers-by, here will think stand up…
In the heavy snow that year, he carried a gourd of wine with a spear and walked on the road of the hay field...
Bianliang many years ago, he lived a smooth life, full of smiles and expectations...
There is a figure waiting for him there...
There are endless regrets in the heart, but at this moment, they are not important.
The figure was looking at him.
he held her hand
All the way to run away.
****************
Yu Yulin got the message from the black flag.
Shi Jin runs through the streets of Vaud, searching for the whereabouts of the child, waiting to be reunited with his brother.
Tan Lu dragged the struggling and screaming child forward, and suddenly stopped. On the street ahead, a huge figure with many people appeared there, watching him solemnly and silently. .
In the southwest, the war against the Hedeng area has begun, and the sound of cannons rang out. A team of 8,000 people has already jumped out of the mountains and circled towards Xuzhou. Some people made way for them, while others did not.
In the Central Plains, the hungry ghosts burned the newly occupied city with the breath of despair and destruction, and spread ragingly.
In the north, Wanyan Zongfu and Zongbi rode their horses and took the first step to the south. They waved their arms, and thousands of flags came hunting.
An unknown man died.
There is no more leopard head in the world.
