Long Song Wanli Dingshan River

This is indeed a good sword.

The edge of the sword penetrated a finger, and the blood flowed continuously. It only took half a moment to stain Zhu Zheng's neckline red, but he couldn't feel the pain at all. As for hurting people, it is almost insensitive.

Zhu Zheng didn't squint, only his Adam's apple rolled slightly.

He replied calmly: "The government affairs are all on my side. If you give me this sword again, no one in the Chu court will be able to restrain me again. Mei Xiang, even you, can't." "

Mei and Cha laughed loudly, and sheathed their swords: "Good answer! You are quite open."

Zhu Zheng nodded slightly, remaining calm.

Mei and Cha retracted their swords and tremblingly walked half a circle around him, their voice stopped behind him: "Do you really think that I? Do you have a resume?"

Zhu Zhengqian said modestly: "Mei Xiang knows people well, and manages affairs clearly. He will carefully check his life history and resume before making appointments."

"good very good."

After Mei and Cha finished walking the remaining half circle, they sat back on the carved chair, "Come forward. For today's sake, I will present this sword to you on behalf of Grand Sima Situ Haozhi."

He said the gift of the sword, but his expression was not the slightest bit relaxed, and he looked at Zhu Zheng cautiously.

Zhu Zheng looked up at the sword in his hand.

The body of the sword? The river is galloping like a dragon, and the pommel? Carved into an exquisite dragon head? It is dancing its claws and staring at him.

Zhu Zhengda took a step back, cupped his hands and said, "Excuse me, sir, it's hard to follow orders."

Mei and Cha asked, "You don't want this sword?"

"This sword goes up to admonish the emperor, and down to kill all officials. If the person holding the sword has a clear mind, it can still protect the peace of the Chu court. If the person holding the sword has half-hearted thoughts, this sword is like adding wings to a tiger, subverting The court of Chu is as easy as turning the palm of your hand." Zhu Zheng bowed deeply, and said, "I have already discussed many political affairs, so I ask Prime Minister Mei to hand over this sword to someone who can check and balance me."

The old man sat blankly, and there seemed to be a hint of a smile on his vertical and horizontal wrinkles.

He relaxed, bowed his head and sighed: "You know its benefits, but you also know its harms. Even if I want to give this sword to others, it's a pity that I can't find any in the Chu court. "A man who can hold a sword."

Zhu Zhengyi stood still.

Mei Xiang suddenly sighed lightly: "Come on, Zheng'er?"

Zhu Zheng suddenly raised his head and glanced at him, then suppressed his surprise for a moment, he took a step forward, stroked his robe and knelt down.

"Your temperament is very similar to Mei girl?" Mei Xiang was in a trance, staring at an empty place in the hall, "Stubborn."

Zhu Zheng pursed his lips and remained silent.

"Give me this letter? Pick it up." Mei Xiang tapped the paper that fell on the ground with a wooden stick, and Zhu Zheng gently picked up the letter paper and handed it to Mei Xiang.

Mei Xiang: "Hold the lamp."

Zhu Zhengfu found a fire pocket and an oil lamp in the hall, lit them and sent them to Mei Hecha's side.

"This letter was written by Lieutenant Liu Suqing of the northern part of Xiangyang. He thought he had changed his own handwriting, so I couldn't figure out it was him—all fooled me into being an old man."

With a hiss, the letter was lit by an oil lamp. Mei and Cha passed the letter on the lamp and burned it, and said in a low voice: "Zhou Wen? The fatuous king who overthrew the country and killed Zhongliang with poison is really not a good name?" Today I? Just made a general inquiry. In the future, more people will use this matter to force you to ask you, and crusade against you, it will only be more urgent than me? .”

Zhu Zheng only said: "Yes."

Mei Xiang weighed the big Sima sword for the last time, and sighed: "I will leave it to you to find the person holding the sword. If you can't find it, you can hold it by yourself. If there is an emergency, even if you break it , even if it is melted, it must not fall into the hands of treacherous men and defile the integrity of this sword!"

Zhu Zheng took the sword with both hands and bowed deeply.

Mei and Cha waved: "Let's go, you go. Do what you should do."

Zhu Zheng was speechless and withdrew.

Before going out, he gently closed the main door of the main hall. The moment the door was closed, he saw Mei Xiang slumped on the grand teacher's chair, and seemed to be drawn out of his mind.

The hall returned to silence again. Mei and Cha sat alone, staring at the scattered wooden boxes on the floor.

Moving under the moonlight, the wooden box was finally swallowed by darkness.

There were three knocks on the door of the hall, and the minister ordered Liu Shiqing to test outside the door: "Mei Xiang, it's late at night, I? Help you go back to rest."

Leaning on a willow stick, Prime Minister Mei and Cha picked up the wooden box on the ground with great effort, patted the dust on it, and hugged the empty box in their arms.At this time, the door creaked open, and Shang Shu ordered Liu Shiqing to greet him in a hurry, and supported Mei and Cha: "Tell me what Xiang Mei wants to pick up, and I'll pick it up for you."

Mei and Cha just shook their heads, "They all treat me like an old man."

The two of them were almost going to the place where the moonlight was bright, when Mei and Cha suddenly stopped and asked, "You are at the bottom of the wall, are you still happy?"

Shang Shuling had an unpredictable expression on his face, and only said: "Mr. Mei, pay attention to your steps? It's time to cross the threshold."

The words are divided into two ends? Let's talk about the side of the long embankment.

The pang boat was really huge, and all the fast boats and sailors could not do anything to it. The pang boat was still lying between the sandbar and the long embankment.

In this way, the Pangzhou intercepted the torrential river water, and the water silted up on one side of the Pangzhou, and flowed along the Pangzhou to the long embankment.At this time, except for those manipulating the ships, all the sailors of the navy were in the river, half of them carried ballast goods to strengthen the embankment, and half of them formed a wall.

The number of human walls has been increased to ten, and one wave after another wave of the river lifts up the human walls. Fighting against the water, the soldiers were fine for a while, but after a while, they gradually began to lose strength.

But there is no one to replace Jiang Shang.

"hold onto!"

Chang Ge himself? Half of his body? Not in the river. He was originally standing on the gentle slope of the long embankment. Later, seeing that the human wall was really struggling, he went straight to stop at the crack of the long embankment.

Although the first row of the human wall was washed away from time to time, the waves pushed the people back row by row, and the last row of the human wall bore all the weight and the waves.

Fortunately, Chang Ge found out early and sent them to the long embankment in time.

There were few people in the last row, and the human wall became more and more difficult.

Just at this time, the Shen Zhong rang.

Chang Ge breathed a sigh of relief, and the bell rang. At least the husband should have arrived in Miyagi safely, and if he persisted for a while, there would be reinforcements.

"Hold on!" Chang Ge shouted towards the front row of people, "Have you heard Shen Zhong? The reinforcements have already set off!"

Rows of people's walls were originally pushed down by the waves of the river like reeds, and they were listless. Hearing the word "reinforcement", they immediately cheered up.

What is even more gratifying is that after being woken up by Shen Zhong, the residents at the bottom of the long embankment spontaneously organized the women's family to help the old and the young to relocate, while the men went up the embankment and entered the human wall. The Chu State Navy finally had a replacement. , a little relieved?

Chang Ge arranged for the human walls in the front rows to be replaced, and he was still guarding the last.

Not long after, Jing Yun joined in with a line of soldiers.

He brought a lot of guards stationed at the gate of Jiangling City. At this time, the exhausted and dying Chu Navy could breathe a sigh of relief.After everyone had been replaced, Chang Ge was still guarding the crevice of the long embankment, and the Chu State Navy division beside him couldn't stop persuading: "General, let's take a rest too."

"Yes, the general is the most troubled here."

Chang Ge just scolded them: "Do you know how to hurt me? Who is like a soft bone when the waves hit?"

The sailor smiled and shrank his neck.

Standing on the embankment, Jing Yun stretched out his arms: "General, get up and rest, I will replace you."

In fact, Chang Ge has long been exhausted, and he only relies on his will to hold on.But what he is guarding is the crack, this place is really tight, all the strength of the walls and the waves are added here, in case the long embankment collapses, it is also here that will bear the brunt.

It is really impossible to hand it over to an ordinary soldier at will, so he has been supporting it all the time, and has not replaced it with others.

At this moment, Chang Ge raised his head and saw that it was Jing Yun who said that he wanted to replace him, so he got up with his palm, and Jing Yun went into the water instead.

When he got up, Chang Ge was still worried, and confessed: "Be careful, the water is cold."

Jing Yun just nodded quietly?

Although Chang Ge got up temporarily, he didn't go far, sitting on the long embankment with his legs hanging down.His clothes were soaked already, and the bottom hem was like a heavy weight. Chang Ge twisted it with his hands, and the river water on his clothes flowed out like a rainstorm.

He was sitting and resting when suddenly there was a tremor from the long embankment.

A row of attendants who came out of nowhere rode up the causeway.

The experienced local people shouted immediately, rushed to the center of the embankment, and stopped them from riding horses: "The embankment is already cracked. At this time, even a small shock can't be stopped. How can they ride on the embankment? The embankment is easier to break if you step on it!"

The man rode the horse, and the horse's hoof kicked the commoner, and he cursed: "I don't sleep in the middle of the night to help you, do you care about me? Do you want to ride a horse or not!"

Another commoner persuaded: "My lord, if you didn't grow up by the river, you may not know that the long embankment is only allowed to pass during the dry season. During the wet season, especially when there is a flood, there must be no unnecessary vibrations. "

The man on horseback lashed out with a whip: "Go away!"

The whip was firmly held by the man.

Chang Gexin grabbed the man's whip and pulled him off. The man rolled into the river with his whip, and struggled for a long time before he crawled up from the edge.

He wiped off the water on his face, pointed at Chang Ge: "Do you know who I am!"

Chang Ge gave him a cold look: "I don't know who you are, but I don't mind sending you into the river again to wash away your hostility."

The Chu State navy who was resting on the side recognized the man in the water, hurriedly got up, stepped forward and persuaded: "You are Du Zongbing from General Wei's mansion, you may not recognize this new general, he is This time, the new General Jianwei in Xiangyang was selected. They are all from their own family members, and it is important to protect the embankment, so don’t hurt your peace.”

"General Jianwei?" Du Zongbing wiped the water off his face and said loudly, "Which General Jianwei? I've never heard of it! Besides, in Chu State, what general has us? General Cheng Zhengda!"

The Chu State Navy only laughed and told him to calm down, but Du Zongbing seemed to despise him, and threw him off: "Go away! Go away! Look at Naoyan!"

Some people nearby shouted: "Masters, the big river is flooding the door of our house, let's put out the fire!"

Du Zongbing directly pushed the man away: "Go!"

Chang Ge's face darkened, and he strode forward, kicking Zongbing Du's heart. This time, Zongbing Du was kicked three or four feet away, struggling in the river.

With a swish sound, all the soldiers on horseback drew their swords, and the person who looked like the chief deputy commander shouted: "Presumptuous! How dare you attack me? Our commander!"

Before he could finish his words, he was turned down by Chang Ge with a whip.

Chang Ge got on his horse, folded his legs on his horse, and sat upside down.

He was still holding Du Zongbing's long whip in his hand. Suddenly, Chang Ge swung the whip, the tip of the whip fluttered, and slapped the ground viciously several times.

Four times? Immediately there was no sound.

Chang Ge stopped the whip, lightly brushed the handle of the whip with his fingertips, and pierced his sharp eyes like cold blades.

He slowed down his voice and listened very patiently: "Today, I? I'm really presumptuous."

On a moonlit night in the cold river, a beauty in red is sitting upside down on a horse, pointing up her boots and looking at the crowd. His pupils are as clear as pearls. It should be a scene that makes people go crazy, but the long hair in his hand The whip, but like a black snake with its fangs open, makes people shudder.

The deputy chief soldier who was kicked over by? got up all at once, and shouted: "Come on, take him down for me!"

Chang Ge: "Who dares to step forward!"

The soldiers' horses were frightened to a halt by this cold shout.

Seeing that everyone was intimidated, he said in a soft voice: "For disaster relief, go back, get off your horse and come over. If you want to mess around, come one and I'll kill one, come a pair, we'll... Kill one or two!"

Du Zongbing gave a big pooh: "Big words are not ashamed."

He snatched the knife from the person around him, and a Chu State navy rushed forward and shouted repeatedly, "Don't, the general is also thinking about disaster relief, please calm down!" Du Zongbing kicked him over. .

God, it's so gloomy.

Chang Ge's face was also terribly dark.

At this time, Zongbing Du finally rushed to the water's edge, and was about to kill him immediately. Seeing this, the government soldiers had to rush a few steps behind Zongbing Du, but the five or six horses in the front row were startled. Hanging upper body? He neighed.

Du Zongbing was fixed in a charging posture with a knife, and he was whipped heavily on his head, covering his face. He had to fall backwards, turned over one by one, and landed heavily on the ground.

Du Zongbing's whole body was cut open with bloodstains two fingers wide, and the wound was so hot and painful that he didn't even have the strength to struggle, and could only hum in a low voice.

Chang Ge was holding a whip, and the blood was still dripping on his whip.

He fixedly stared at the soldiers rushing up, raised his eyebrows and said, "Who wants to try again?"

No one on the long embankment dared to speak, and the sound of the rushing river seemed even more strangely silent at the moment.

At this time, the vice commander who was kicked off by Chang Ge suddenly got up and held up something high: "This is the tiger amulet of General Wei, given by the king of Chu. Seeing this amulet is like seeing the king's face!"

Has he got enough energy? He yelled at Chang Ge: "Don't hurry up and get down? Kneel!"

Chang Ge sneered.

The man stared: "Do you dare to disrespect me?——"

The words were completely sealed in his throat.His eyes popped out immediately, and before he could utter the last syllable, he fell straight down, his back was slashed vertically, and the tiger talisman of the general guard he was holding fell to the ground. up, half sunk in the sand.

As soon as this person died, the person who shot behind him was revealed.

Zhu Zheng stood on the long embankment, holding a long white sword all over his body.

His clothes are cold and white, and he has an awe-inspiring sense of inviolability. There is a bright red scar on his neck, as if the skin is too thin, and under the light fingernails, it turns red like a sunray.

There was a flash of lightning from heaven and earth, and pale thunder covered his path.

Zhu Zhengfan held the sword in his hand, and said one word and one sentence: "The Da Sima sword is here, who dares to make mistakes!"
