Chapter 56 Sword Dance
Finally, Zhu Song also wrote a letter to Lao Cao. These thousands of people have now broken through the feudal king's defense line and arrived at the rear of Liaodong. Who knows what these people can do in the face of heavy snow and freezing weather.
If they really come across a village where people live, there is no guarantee that people will be brutally murdered.
Since we don’t know which hole they got in through, let’s fix this hole now so that they can’t get out. If they get in, they can die here.
Zhu Song commanded the battle all night, and his nerves were tense almost from the evening until the early morning of the next day. After a full six hours, Zhu Song could no longer hold on.
After finishing the letter and eating, Zhu Song hugged the princess and fell asleep deeply in the Chinese army camp.
When Zhu Song woke up again, it was already afternoon.
Sleeping during the day is not as comfortable as sleeping at night, and sleeping time during the day is not as long as at night.
But at least I took some rest and my spirits recovered a lot.
The princess is still sleeping deeply, and the sword is still placed beside the bed. It seems that the bloody battle last night has left a big psychological shadow on the princess.
Zhu Song stood up, took a drink of water and walked out of the camp. He looked at the calm situation outside and the bodies had basically been disposed of and buried.
In fact, even if the corpse is left outside at this time, it will be frozen hard and will not rot. But I am afraid that in the spring of next year, so many people and horses will die, and if there is an outbreak then,
Plague is a serious crime.
Zhu Song was walking in the camp when he suddenly heard Miao Kui calling him from behind.
"Your Highness, why don't you rest for a while?"
Zhu Song looked at Miao Kui and smiled.
"I didn't sleep well during the day, and after working hard all night last night, I still can't relax so easily. Why don't you go rest? You were tired enough from running all the way from Shanhaiguan last night."
Miao Kui shook his head.
"Your Highness, you can't sleep. Your Highness is here. Your Highness is responsible for your safety. And it's just over a hundred miles away! It's not that far!"
Zhu Song smiled and nodded. Since Miao Kui felt that he could still hold on, let him continue to hold on for a while. With a Qianhu like Miao Kui in the camp, he felt relieved.
"I thought about it before going to bed last night. These people probably bribed an official of a certain vassal king before they rushed in. Fortunately, I met them. If they had met the villagers first,
The consequences are simply unimaginable.”
Miao Kui nodded: "Your Highness is right. I have been thinking about it for a day, and finally I can only come up with this result. But no matter how short of money you are, you should not open the door to convenience for others. This is not harmful.
Our own people?”
After hearing this, Zhu Song sneered: "A bunch of bastards! As long as they are a little greedy, they will be caught. As long as greed is satisfied, they will become bigger and bigger in the future, and they will become more and more crazier in the future!"
"What's the difference between this and betraying the country for glory? Opening a convenient door for enemies to rush into your home and kill your own people is the kind of person I hate the most!"
In fact, Zhu Song did not finish what he said. The salary of officials in the Ming Dynasty was notoriously low among all dynasties. These officials had no money or food, so they were inevitably prone to corruption. When the water is clear, there will be no fish. Zhu Yuanzhang did not understand this principle.
Zhu Yuanzhang just wanted to see whether it was more important to save his life or to satisfy his own greed.
But it is a pity that human nature and once greed arises, life and death can be ignored.
However, there is nothing we can do about it. Decades after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, everything is still in need of improvement. Although the world is said to be peaceful, in fact, the lives of ordinary people are only slightly better than those in the previous dynasty.
There is no other way. If you don’t attack the people first, who should you attack first? Should you attack the officials first?
The more Zhu Song thought about it, the more complicated it became. He shook his head to clear away the distracting thoughts in his mind.
At this moment, Zhu Song saw Chen Zheng walking out of the tent. Yesterday, Chen Zheng shot two arrows in a row. Later, he was highly concentrated and kept aiming at Agaru. His energy was exhausted and he fainted. This time, he could not sleep.
It took almost six hours.
Chen Zheng saw His Highness and ran over.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty couldn't stand it anymore yesterday and passed out. Please atone for your sins!"
"Oh, forgive me, you have done a great job. If you hadn't been keeping an eye on that Agaru yesterday, if he had commanded his troops to besiege us, I'm afraid my head would have been gone by now."
Zhu Song patted Chen Zheng on the shoulder and helped him up. He looked at the soldiers who were still at the resting door in the camp and ordered.
"Now that the king is safe, there is no need to worry about wandering Yuan people coming to cause trouble. Let the soldiers rest for a while longer and continue on the road tomorrow morning!"
"yes!"
After Zhu Song made arrangements, he returned to the camp and found that the princess had also gotten up at this time, still with the sword in her hand.
"Princess, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
The princess looked at Zhu Song and replied: "Your Highness went out after waking up. My concubine couldn't sleep well inside, so she got up."
Zhu Song picked up the two-handed sword at the princess's hand. As expected, the two-handed sword was much longer than an ordinary sword.
Moreover, this sword is also lighter, much lighter than an ordinary one-handed sword. It seems that this sword is mainly used to defeat enemies with agility and speed.
"When will the princess give me a sword dance and let me see the princess's martial arts?"
After hearing this, the princess smiled sheepishly, then took the long sword from Zhu Song's hand and began to dance with the sword.
Zhu Song sat on the bed and watched the princess dance the sword. She was really as graceful as a dragon, but there was a difference between the sword dance and the dance. The dance only focused on softness, but the sword dance had a sharp and solemn beauty.
Zhu Song was stunned for a moment. No wonder when he watched TV series before, the adults and emperors in the TV series had their eyes wide open when they watched people dancing swords. It turned out to be so beautiful.
Just dance with the sword! Zhu Song clapped his hands.
"Okay, great, it's so beautiful. The princess's sword dance has moved into my heart!"
The princess sheathed her sword, and the little bird flew into Zhu Song's arms, and actually began to cry bitterly.
Zhu Song was a little numb for a moment. He was fine just now, but now he suddenly started crying. Is this woman really made of water? Tears come at every turn.
"Wasn't the princess fine just now? What's going on?"
Princess Han's tears penetrated Zhu Song's chest.
