Chapter 772 Chapters of the World War Overture (Part 1)

From Wu Dynasty’s two hundred years of prosperous and prosperous time, the time is about four years. In this short and long time, people have begun to get used to the war, habits, habits, and habits. The fact that the cloud has fallen. Wu Dynasty In the early spring of the third year of Jianye, Jiangnan was in the gloom of gray and white. The Jurchen’s search for the mountains and the sea is still going on.

Jiangning, the snow of the dragonfly is still covered in the city, but the huge chaos is already brewing.

Many luxury and wealthy families are escaping from the city, and the industry of the Princess of the Immaculate Conception is moving. The original Xiangyang home, known as the first rich businessman of Jiangning, has been heavily loaded with a large truck. The car, the family members in each house are also ready to leave, the owner Pu Yangyi is not willing to flee first, he ran between the government and the army, expressed his willingness to donate a lot of gold and silver, industry, for resistance and ** **, but more people have already left the city.

If you can still remember, this is the first city that Ning Yi came into contact with in this era. It has become quiet and graceful in the centuries of time, the walls are solemn and the courtyard is mottled and ancient. The house of Su Family was still there at this time. It was only sealed up by the government. At that time, the courtyards and weeds had been raised in the courtyards. The valuable items in the room had already been removed. It became worn out, and the wall pillars faded away from the old paint and streaky.

In the yard where Ning Yi and Tan’er once lived, a spider web was set up in the room. Cats and stray dogs used it as a home to settle down. They searched for food and walked quietly through the snowy walls. Perhaps we still remember that nearly a decade ago, Ning Yi and a woman named Su Tan Er had spoken and lived in the courtyard of this courtyard. They gradually became familiar with the spring rain and autumn frost, and gradually became a simple couple. There used to be two small buildings, which were later burned by Tan’er and they lived together.

At that time, the old man and the children were still here. The youngsters of the squatting day were sitting on the limited things of walking the chickens and dogs. The adults in each room were intimidated by the small interests. Once, there was such a thunderstorm, the fierce strongman entered the courtyard, some fell in the pool of blood, and some people made a hysterical rebellion. Soon after, the things here led to the name of Liangshan. The destruction of the village.

Outside the courtyard, the city’s roads are straight ahead, and the Qinhuai river, known as the windy moon, passes through the city. In the two hundred years, the block of the Brothel Chu Pavilion is on its sides, a singer and a talented woman. It gradually became famous here, and it was gradually blown away by the rain. The Autumn Wind Building, which was ranked in the city of Jiangning more than a decade ago, was smashed a few years ago. The main name of the Autumn Wind Building is Yang Xiuhong, and its temperament is similar to that of Li Yunli’s mother. At the office.

What is different from Li Yun is that when Jin Bing broke the beam, the temple was searching for a beautiful woman for the golden soldier in the city. Under the enormous pressure of the mother, Li Yun and several squatters spent their own time to protect themselves. Yang Xiuhong dismissed his family’s wealth a few years ago under the intimidation of various bureaucrats. Since then, his life has become clean. Now the woman who has gradually grown old has embarked on the road away from the city, in this cold In the snow, she occasionally remembered the once Autumn Wind Building, remembering the Young Lady who once jumped into the Qinhuai river on a rainy day, remembering Nie Yunzhu who had been pursuing herself and eventually redeemed herself.

Along the Qinhuai river, in the remote place by the river, the former traitor Qin Yuyuan swayed through the chess stalls under the trees on the side of the road. Occasionally, people like him came to see him and talked with him. Now the road is long. The tree is still there, people are gone.

Going up again, the small building where Ning Yi once ran through the river was already in the snow and disrepair two years ago. The young Lady named Nie Yunzhu will stay here every morning. Give him a smile, Yuan Jin’er lived, and screaming at the quail, sometimes they also sat on the terrace of the river to sing and sing, watching the sunset fall, watching the autumn leaves drifting, the winter snow is long. Nowadays, the abandoned and decaying foundations are also covered with snow and silted up the wormwood.

Wu Family, who used to be the head of Jiangning’s three major cloth merchant families, has inherited the owner of this family. In the event of vying for the imperial business, he was swayed by Ning Yi and Su Family. Wu Qilong It has become painstaking and painful. In a few years, it has become more stable and mature. The relationship with the government has become more and more close. It has finally pushed Wu Family’s business back to its former scale, and even has it. In the first few years, he thought about the rise to Su Family, but he soon lost the opportunity.

Over the years, Xue Jin, who was once the descendant of the Xue family, has been in the middle of his life. He still has no big achievements, but he is everywhere, his wife and children are full. At this time, he may still remember the brick that he had photographed when he was young and frivolous. The man who once smashed him into a brick, and then killed the emperor, was at this time, still rebelling in a certain place, so earth-shattering The big thing. He occasionally wants to talk about it as a talk, but in fact, this matter is suppressed in his heart, and he has not exported at all.

The Jurchen is coming.

In the process of searching for the mountains and the sea, the Jurchen striker is now approaching Jiangning, and the Wulie camp stationed here has put up a resistance, but not many people are optimistic about the results of their resistance. Attitude. In this burning that lasted for several months, the Jurchens were slightly defeated in addition to the sea arrest, and their land attack on the land was almost completely destroyed. People have realized the fact that their imperial army has no fighting power, and because of the loss of Zhou Xi’s pursuit of the sea, the other side’s offensive on land has become more and more fierce.

A few months ago, Junwu had returned to Jiangning and organized resistance. Later, in order not to be tired of Jiangning, Junwu took some soldiers and craftsmen to the southwest, but one of the Jurchens continued to follow this route. Come over.

The car of the Princess of the Immaculate Conception also came out of the city in such a chaos. Zhou Cheng, a princess who had a high age, was not willing to leave. He was also reluctant to leave, and the Taoist woman had the reason to let the woman marry the country. The couple eventually compromised each other, but on the night after leaving the city, the Princess of the Zhou Dynasty fell ill in a business outside Jiangning.

They stayed in other professions for two days, Zhou Wei’s condition has become more and more serious, and Kang Xian does not intend to go any further. On this night, someone came back from the field, and was accompanied by Lu Agui, who was rushed back to the night, Junwu, who was rushing back in the industry. He looked at Zhou Wei, who was already in critical condition, and asked Kang Xian about the illness in the courtyard. Kang Xian shook his head.

The old man has also been white-haired, and with a few days of accompaniment and worries, his eyes are bloodshot, but there is already a hint of insight in his expression. He said: “She spent a lifetime in Jiangning, and she should discuss it in the early days. When I left, I thought about it. Xu shouldn’t have to go. It’s just… When things are coming, there’s always a hint of luck in my heart.”

Then he said: “You shouldn’t come back. When the weather is dawn, you will go faster.”

Junwu has tears in his eyes: “I thought I was gone, Jurchen will at least let go of Jiangning…”

“Where your father has lived here for half a lifetime, the Jurchens will let go. In addition, there is no need to say frustration. The martial arts camp is tens of thousands of people, and may not be able to resist.”

After he finished this sentence, Junwu looked at him and shook his head. The words in his mouth did not say it. Kang Xian smiled and said: “Okay, I am deceiving myself, Wu Lie camp… It is impossible to resist, so Ah, you can only go.”

“That you……”

“The things of the Princess of the Immaculate Conception have already been handed over to you and your sister. We still have nothing to put in. The country is weak, it is the fruit planted in two hundred years. You young people have to go forward, they have to come slowly. Junwu, here you don’t have to be generous, you have to hide, you have to hold back, no matter what other people. It’s not interesting to have a life out there, only you are alive and you may win in the future.”

The old man’s heart has already realized it. When talking about these words, the cloud is light and windy. Junwu’s heart is sorrowful, but he does not know where to export.

Late at night, Zhou Wei’s consciousness was clear, Kang Xian entered the room to talk to his wife, and Junwu waited at the door. He thought that the old man would eventually ask him to go in, but waited for a long time, there was no more movement inside. The sky will be dawning, the night is the darkest, and the lights in the room have been naturally extinguished. Junwu carefully pushed the door in and lit the light. Kang Xian, holding the wife’s hand, kept sitting quietly. With. The tears on his face were dry, his eyes were clear, and Junwu walked over. Zhou Hao hugged one hand of Kang Xian, and his eyes closed forever and peacefully.

Junwu couldn’t help but fell to the ground and cried. Until he finished crying, Kang Xian whispered: “She finally talked about you, there is not much to explain. You are the last emperor, she hopes that you can hold Zhoujia The blood of the family. You are still there, Zhou is still there.” He gently stroked the hand of the dead wife and turned to look at the familiar face. “So, hurry.”

At this time, Zhou Pei was drifting on the sea with his escaped father. Junwu was kneeling on the ground, and his sister had bowed his head in front of the bed. After a long time, he wiped his tears, and some choked: “Grandpa, you go with me…”

Kang Xian just looked at his wife and shook his head. “I don’t go. She and I have been in Jiangning for the rest of my life. Jiangning is also dead. This is our home. Now, others have to come home, we shouldn’t have Going, she is alive, I am dying, she is dead, and I should do what I should do.”

“But I can’t live without you, Grandpa Kang…”

“Of course, there is no me. When the old man is gone, the child can see the cruelty of the world, and he can grow up and stand alone. Although it is sometimes faster, the world is like this, and there is nothing to be critical about. Junwu, the future is what you want. The way to go…”

Junwu This life, among the relatives, the best for him, that is, this pair of grandparents, now Zhou Wei has passed away, the Kang Xian will in front of him is obviously extremely determined, not willing to go again, he is sad to come from time to time, no Can be suppressed, vomiting and sputum, Kang Xian only opened again.

“Hey, when I was young, I used to have my own way. I, you Qin Grandpa, Zuo Duanyou, Wang Qisong… These people, one by one, want to come out a good way for this world. Junwu, we are Failed, it seems to have some experience, but it is nothing but the experience of the loser. The one that has been taught to you has actually been taught to you. You should not be superstitious about this. The views of the elderly and the views of the losers are for reference only. “He was silent for a moment, and said again, “The only one who refuses to admit defeat, kills the emperor…”

He talked about Ning Yi, but he looked at the other person as a peer.

In this room, Kang Xian did not speak any more. He held his wife’s hand as if he was feeling the last temperature of the other hand. However, Zhou Hao’s body had been unstoppable and cold. After a long time, he finally put the hand. Let go, calmly go out and ask people to come in and deal with the things behind.

At noon, Kang Xian urged Junwu to leave the road. Junwu last time persuaded Kang Xian to go with him. Kang Xian looked back at the courtyard and house full of white flowers, shook his head slowly and firmly, and smiled again: “I Know your thoughts, but your grandfather is already old. When you leave, you will definitely die on the road… You will have the heart to see your grandmother staying in Jiangning, but I am dead, so I can’t be reunited? Well, You are leaving quickly.”

Junwu and others prepared for Mali. When they left, Kang Xian looked at the direction of Jiangning City. Finally, “In the past few years, your teacher alone, the most exciting in the Northwest War, I really hope, we I can also play such a war… I probably can’t see him again. If you can see it in the future, tell him for me…” He may have a lot to say, but silence and discretion for a long time, finally just saying: “… …he played well, it was not easy. But there were too many rules and regulations, and he started playing chess, fearing that it would not be my opponent anymore.”

When the winter came, the Jurchens smashed down the south, and no one could be a match. Only when the Northwest War Report came, the Black Flag Army defeated the Jurchen West Road army in a positive way, and the Fantasy Goddess of War was completed. For some well-informed high-level people, it was the real shock and the only inspiring message. At the moment of the collapse of the world, the number of people who can know the news is not much, and the killing of Zhou Yi’s Ning Yi is not likely to be used as a model for boosting morale in the Central Plains and Jiangnan. For Kang Xian, the only one. I am afraid that it is only the young man who has a kindness to Ning Yi in front of him.

This is both his pride and his regret. Zhou Wei and Wu Dynasty were so corrupted that the heroes of Ning Yi could not be used by Zhou. After that, they could only watch the world fall, and the army in the northwest was killing the chamber. After that, after all, I will fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness…

Since then, Junwu and others have turned back to the southwest in a few steps, and on this evening, Kang Xian returned to Jiangning with the princess of the Princess of China. He is old, old and careless, so he no longer fears to invade the enemy in his home.

Soon after, the Jurchen force forced Jiangning, Wu Lieying commanded Yin Yin to surrender, and opened the city gate to welcome the Jurchen people into the city. Because the performance of the defenders was “better”, the Jurchens did not launch a massacre in Jiangning, just In the city, a large number of wealthy households were robbed and gold and silver treasures were collected. Of course, various small-scale killings occurred during this period.

Kang Xian dismissed his family, leaving only the remaining 20 relatives and loyal servants at home to make the final resistance. Before the arrival of the Jurchen, a storyteller came to see him. Kang Xian received him with some surprises. He asked the storyteller in detail about the situation in the northwest and finally sent it away. This is the first and last indirect exchange between Ning Yi and Kang Xian since the last few years. Ning Yi advised him to leave, and Kang Xian refused.

Junwu, who is far southwest, has no way of knowing this little episode. He met Ning Yi again and it was already a few years later in the Jedi. Soon after, the old man named Kang Xian left forever in Jiangning.

************

In the north, the cold weather continues, and the prosperity of the human world and the tragedy of the human world also occur at the same time, without interruption.

Emperor Jingping of Zhou Jing, who liked to ask God for his life, opened the Tianshi Guo Jing anti-gold shortly after he ascended the throne, and then was brought to the north by the Wu Dynasty emperor, who was living a tragic life here. After grabbing the north, he was bought by Wu Hao as a singer. He was a special slave used by the Jurchen nobles for fun. He was kept in a small yard near the Imperial City and served daily. Some meals that are difficult to swallow, every time the Jurchen party, he must be arrested and insulted to declare the martial arts of Daikin.

At the beginning, the pampered Zhou Wei naturally could not adapt, but the matter was simple. As long as he was hungry for a few days, those foods such as pig food could swallow. The Jurchen is a “public”, but in fact it is regarded as a pig dog. The guards who guard him can arbitrarily fight for it. Every time he delivers a meal, he has to swear to the guards of the guards.

These are not the most unbearable. The royal women who were arrested in the North, some of whom were his nieces and prostitutes—the wife and daughter of Jing Handi’s Zhou Yi—some of his own daughters, even wives and wives, who would be caught in front of him*** *Insults, of course, can not be tolerated and how can it, if you do not dare to die, you can only endure.

The winter in the northern country is cold. When the winter arrives, the Jurchen does not give him enough charcoal fire and clothes to protect him from the cold. Zhou Wei can only warm up with the queen who is next to him. Sometimes the guards are in a good mood, and the queen is physically or he goes. Shantou, ask for a little charcoal, clothing. As for the Jurchen banquet, Zhou Hao was called out. Every time he squatted on the ground, he praised Dajinguo and even made a poem. He praised the martial arts of the Jin State and his own arrogance. If the other party is happy, they can exchange it. A normal meal, if not performed satisfactorily, or will be hungry for a dozen or a few days.

We can’t judge whether the emperor, who was only a latecomer, would bear such a huge humiliation for Wu Dynasty. We can’t judge whether Ning Yi doesn’t kill Zhou Wei, and let him take it all is a more reasonable ending. Between countries, the loser can only suffer misery, and there is no justice. In this Northland, the most miserable, not just the emperor, the aristocratic and royal women who were beaten into the robes In this winter, nearly half of the people who were hungry and lethal were killed, and most of the slaves who were taken over were living in a life that was not as good as death. In the first year of the first year, more than half of the people died tragically. .

Jurchens don’t care about the death of slaves, because there will be more and more people coming from the south.

In the second winter of the past, it was even harder for Zhou Wei. The Jurchen in the south of the search for the mountains and seas did not successfully seize the new emperor of Wu Dynasty, and since the northwest war, the Jurchen attitude towards Zhou Wei is even worse. At the end of the year, they called Zhou Hao to the banquet, and after Zhou Hao wrote a few poems for the Jurchen songs, he asked him to write a few essays.

One of the scripts, in his capacity as the Emperor of Wu Dynasty, advised the Southern Dynasties to surrender to the sect of the Golden State, and to blame those who resisted the army as inferior to the beasts, and to teach Zhou Wei. Advise him not to hide again, come to the north, with Mu Jinguo squatting under the grace of heaven.

In the second part, he once again denounced the rebellion of the Wurui battalion in the northwest, and called on the Wu Dynasty nationals to jointly attack the public enemies who fled after the prince.

The third one is that he passed the prefecture of the Jinan City Gate surrender, and the righteous Liu Yu, who ordered him to establish the Daqi regime in the south of Yanmenguan, with the king of the country as the brother, defending the land and defending the people. inverse.

Then, Jin Guo made a collection of Zhou Yu’s songs, poems, and essays, just like half of last year, and sent it to the south for free…

**************

In the northwest, short-lived peace continues.

After the spring, Ning Yi came to Yanzhou City to visit the species. At this time, the people in this place are in the moral morale. In the vicinity, like the family, all the forces that are close to the women, most of them have been huddled up, and the days are quite bad.

Many people have chosen to join the Huaxia Army or the Tibetan Army. The two armies are now aligned.

“There is a lot of excitement.” Ning Yi and the cockroach stood on the wall and looked at the scene of signing up for the army.

This is the last excitement.

The fall of the Central Plains has become a reality, and the northwest has become a lonely place.

“There is no way out.” The scorpion pressed his hands on the wall, and the tall body had the unique heroism of the northwestern man. “That would kill a way!”

After the war against the Jurchen West Road Army, his entire life seemed to be burning. Ning Yi looked around and didn’t speak.

On January 29, Jiangning fell.

He remembered the city.

There are many things that are broken and gone. The darkness of light and shadow is crushing and crushing everything, and it is going to be pressed here. This is darker than any of the past, but it is hard to say clearly now. In what form will it come.

Wu Dynasty was built three years ago, and the northwest turned into the eve of the Jedi.
