Blue and White Society Chapter 585: The sudden change of wind and cloud
Jiang Cheng quickly figured out how to say it, and asked Mo Poor to translate what he wanted to say into the current pronunciation and send it to him.
I saw Jiang Cheng pretending to be excited to cover up his awkward accent.
First saluted Wen Tianxiang, and then generously said: "The prime minister's loyalty and filial piety have been exhausted! The students are educated, and the country's affairs have fallen to this point. As a clan, Meng Yun deserves more than death, how can he be humiliated again?"
"I will... I will serve the country with death, and I will serve the country with integrity... woo woo woo woo..."
As he spoke, Jiang Cheng felt sad from his heart, and tears streamed down his face.
My princely position!
He really cried. He said this. He doesn't know whether Wen Tianxiang will die or not. Anyway, he basically won't live long...
Don't look at him and Wen Tianxiang being treated with courtesy, in fact, life and death depend on Dadu's whim, Zhang Hongfan is just not good at making decisions.
Except for the emperor and officials who surrendered at the break of Lin'an City, the scholar-bureaucrats, generals and clans captured later were basically killed.
Even Emperor Deyou, who surrendered, was dispatched to Tibet and died of illness.
Wen Tianxiang and others were sent to Dadu, but they would also be killed. What's more, as a clan, if he doesn't give in to some infamy, he won't be able to live at all.
After the Yashan naval battle ended and the Southern Song Dynasty was completely destroyed, such a small clan like him was no longer worth using, and he would die if he said he died.
What's more, he is not a clan!
Jiang Cheng knew very well that he could not lose his clan status now, because once he knew that he was not a clan, he would not even survive this month, and would die immediately.
Death later, or death immediately, Jiangcheng can only choose the former...
Ever since, he and Wen Tianxiang were crying here.
Wen Tianxiang cried like hell, knowing that there is no cure.
Jiangcheng cried so much that he was himself... The 'medicine' has been taken, and he has shown his integrity. He was fine during the naval battle. When the Yashan naval battle is over, he will die.
Zhang Hongfan didn't take it seriously, as if he knew it earlier.
Wen Tianxiang said a few words of relief and regret, and let them sit.
As for Jiang Cheng, he didn't mention a word, as if he didn't matter at all.
Thinking about it, Wen Tianxiang is the person Meng Yuan hopes to win over. If he can change his attitude and serve the emperor of Yuan Dynasty like he served the Song Dynasty, he will not lose his position as prime minister.
But Zhao Mengyun belongs to the clan, no matter whether he returns or not, he will not be used.
At the banquet, Jiang Cheng feasted and drank, trying to figure out when it would be better to escape while taking advantage of the chaos. Wen Tianxiang was sluggish and dull, not dripping water.
"After the Yashan naval battle, I must be dead, either here or in Dadu." Jiang Cheng secretly said.
"As long as you don't reveal your identity, you can still live for this month. If you send it to Dadu, it will be longer, maybe half a year." Mo Poor said.
"Couldn't you help me escape? I'll keep my name hidden, so I can be a villager." Jiang Cheng begged.
Mo Poor refused: "You should have been executed, the extra few months you will live with your clan status in the future will be blood money."
"If you want to live forever, you can only rely on yourself. If I help you, what is the difference between pardoning you."
Jiangcheng has lost its way, and even after hard thinking and meditation, he can't think of how to escape from this camp.
He was allowed to stand on the ship tower to watch the battle every day, not even close to the pole of the ship, and he was not given the chance to jump into the sea.
You don't have to worry about eating and drinking, but you don't want to run away anyway.
Seeing Song Jun's deteriorating situation, he was also very anxious. When the Song army is completely defeated, he will die.
At this moment, he really wanted Song Jun to persevere, and if he persisted, he could always live here eating and drinking.
However, that day is finally coming.
The weather above Yashan was bad that day, lightning bolts pierced through the thick dark clouds, hunting and hunting over Yashan, the wind roared, and heavy rain poured down.
Seeing the heavy rain, Zhang Hongfan finally got impatient and decided to make a final attack.
It turns out that these days, scattered battles are just to wear down the will of the Song army.
After all, he only has 20,000 Mongolian troops, many of whom are not good at water warfare, and he will suffer heavy losses if he forcibly destroys the Song army.
It would be best if we could win without a fight.
The Song army was short of water and food, and they returned the boats with iron chains. Every time the Mongolian army retreated, the Song army was unable to pursue them, so they could only be passively beaten every day.
Zhang Hongfan thought to himself, he will die after suffering.
But the weather is not good. Whenever the Song army is in a desperate situation, there will always be a heavy rain. With the rain relief, the Song army can always persist for several days.
Therefore, the sea battle, which must be won, was fought for more than 20 days. Including the truce, it dragged on for a month.
Seeing that there was another heavy rain on this day, which caused the Song army to be rained after a long drought. Zhang Hongfan was furious and did not dare to delay. How can we delay any longer?
Finally, all the Mongolian troops pressed up, and the final general offensive began.
Zhang Hongfan's navy attacked the Song army head-on, and then used sackcloth to cover the ship building built in advance and buried the ambushes, using Mingjin as the attack signal. Ambush soldiers from all walks of life fell down with their shields on their backs, and approached the Song ship under the rain of arrows. The ships of the two armies approached, the Mongolian army beat drums, and retreated to fight. Seven Song ships were destroyed in a row.
The war lasted for several hours, and the shouts of killing shook the sky! There was a fog of blood on and off the boat.
The Mongolian army landed from behind at the right time of high tide and attacked from front to back. In addition, the soldiers of the Song Army had been floating on the sea for many days, and it was difficult to supply them, and the soldiers were extremely weak. Under the enemy's back and belly, there are no casualties.
Knowing that the situation was over, Zhang Shijie thought it was important to protect the emperor, so he went to the Chinese army, intending to lead the seven-year-old Emperor Huai to break out of the encirclement.
But Lu Xiufu resolutely refused. He ignored his wife and children crying and pushed them into the sea one by one.
Then he said to the little emperor: "This is the state affairs, Your Majesty will die for the country, Emperor Deyou has been humiliated so much, Your Majesty can no longer humiliate you."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for the emperor to reply, let alone the crying of the little emperor, he jumped into the icy seawater with his back on his back.
Many people have seen this scene. The emperor died, and the last flag of Zhao Song fell.
The remaining 100,000 soldiers and civilians who accompanied them threw themselves into the sea to die for their country when they heard the news of their death.
For a while, hundreds of thousands of corpses were floating in the sea area of Yashan.
Jiang Cheng was touched by the atmosphere and cried loudly.
At this time, only Zhang Shijie, commander of the Song Army, led sixteen ships to break through the siege. After he broke through, he learned the news of the death of the little emperor, and felt very sad.
At the same time, because the soldiers and civilians threw themselves into the sea to die for their country, the Mongolian army was unstoppable and the tide was high. His boat was beaten back by the waves and rushed towards the Mongolian army head-on.
In this regard, Zhang Shijie gave a wry smile, let the wind and waves push him towards the enemy, and pointed his sword at the sky, saying: "I am the Zhao family, and I do my best. When one king dies, another one is established, unexpectedly he dies again. I I am alive and not dead, I just want the enemy soldiers to retreat, not to set up the Zhao family to preserve the country. Is it God's will if the current wind and waves are like this?"
After finishing speaking, he was about to throw himself into the sea in grief, and the rest of the soldiers were also in great grief and wanted to die together.
However, at this moment, Zhang Shijie's sword suddenly shone brightly, and a soaring sword shadow pierced the sky, breaking through the deep dark clouds, and seeing the sun through the clouds.
Sunlight leaked out from the cloud hole, showing the magic of the soaring sword light even more.
At the same time, a supreme sword intent that is difficult to describe in words swept across the sea area of Yashan.
The Mongolian army stood still, looking at the soaring sword light in disbelief.
Not to mention them, Zhang Shijie himself was stunned, and the remaining soldiers under his command couldn't help but kneel under the blinding sword light.
The battlefield, which was fierce and painful just now, became extremely silent for a while.
Only the rough sea water is left, whistling with the sea wind.
"What the **** is this!" Jiang Cheng yelled in dismay.
When he shouted, the Mongolian army was in an uproar.
More than 10,000 Mongolian soldiers looked at Zhang Shijie with his sword pointing at the sky in fear, and felt that he was facing the might of God.
The high tide pushed Zhang Shijie and the wrecked boat behind him, and Zhang Shijie's boat smashed into the Mongolian army like a bamboo.
No one in the Mongolian army dared to step forward with a stick, and no one dared to shoot an arrow.
Zhang Shijie was stunned, he was about to throw himself into the sea, but suddenly such an unbelievable change happened, and he couldn't recover.
But soon he came back to his senses, because he stood upright with his sword in his hand, and he felt that at this moment, in the sky and the world, I am the only one.
At the moment when the country was in ruins and Shenzhou Lu was sinking, the situation changed suddenly! An indescribable supreme self-confidence filled his heart, as if the emperor was above him, supporting him, and the earth below, supporting him.
Leaving Zhang Shijie with an indescribable feeling of 'my destiny is mine'.
Looking at this sword again, the supreme sword intent soars to the sky, breaking the clouds at the top, and splitting the sea at the bottom!
Suddenly, Zhang Shijie stood upright on the bow of the boat, riding the wind and waves, and felt that there were only four words in his heart!
"I'm invincible!"
