Moreover, as Han Shizhong personally led a sailing fleet upstream, the Jin army almost instantly lost its ability to cross the Huaihe River.
In fact, if you think about it, the Jurchens are just savages, not fools. On the contrary, they have a high level of awareness of military technology. Therefore, facing the water gap that can be seen at a glance, you can close your eyes and think about it.
The pontoon, what kind of large ships and small boats in the past were enough to hit the waves in front of such a sailing ship?
In this case, where is the fight?
Of course, their courage and fighting spirit will definitely not be lost. The Jin Army has not fallen to that level yet, but before they figure out how to deal with this fleet, they will definitely be frustrated and try to avoid fighting with this fleet.
…
All in all, no matter how aggrieved Captain Zhang was, Han Shizhong's arrival at the right time actually changed the strategic balance of the entire battle, and actually made today's battle end with the Song Army's successful defense.
However, it was not only the contributions of Han Shizhong and his sailing fleet that allowed the Song Army to end the battle with dignity today.
"The officials are coming!"
"The officials are here to see Brother Zhang Qi!"
"Commander Qiao and Yang Dalang are also here!"
"Zhang Qilang is so proud!"
In the evening, in the main camp in the west passage at the foot of Bagong Mountain, that is, behind the west water village, there was a commotion, and Zhao Jiu, the official of Zhao, who had specially put on a hard-winged futou and a gold belt, appeared with a serious expression.
Outside a densely populated military tent.
Obviously, he came to visit Zhang Yongzhen, the hero of today's World War I... Zhang Yongzhen almost forced a comeback with a single force today, and his credit is undoubted; more importantly, when the entire army was on the verge of collapse and no one dared to fight, his
Counterattack is particularly precious; in addition, after Zhao Jiu's 'direct subordinate' was about to be carried back, everyone discovered that he had been hit by nineteen arrows, and his blood was almost drained, and it seemed that he could not survive!
At this time, Zhao Jiu, who had achieved absolute autonomy in the Huainan camp, had no reason not to come and visit in order to win people's hearts and set an example.
As soon as they entered the tent, they were greeted by the smell of blood and river water. In addition, there was also the stench of sweat from the crowds, the burnt smell of fuel, and the weird smell of Chinese herbal medicine. It was really suffocating.
To be fair, within half a year of being released from the well, Zhao Jiu was shocked at the sight of bloodshed at first, then personally killed people, and then carried Liu Guangshi's head across the river. He should have adapted to certain scenes long ago. However, when this official Zhao
When I came to Zhang Yongzhen's bed, I saw that the other party's robe was untied, and the bloody holes on his body were mixed with golden sore medicine, which reflected each other with his almost pale skin. He actually lost his composure in public again, so much so that he turned around to avoid... But he didn't know that he was being attacked.
I was so frightened that I still couldn’t bear to look at it.
After adjusting for a moment, Zhao Jiu still looked at Zhang Yongzhen, but only stared at the other person's face, trying to avoid the other person's body.
"The officials...are indeed here. I knew...I knew the officials would be here..." Zhang Yongzhen tried her best to speak and forced a smile, but she was out of breath. This is exactly the posture of a dying person. "
I also guessed...guessed...that the officials would definitely...be...shocked by my appearance."
"Zhang Qing, do you have anything to say?" Zhao Jiu managed to answer.
Zhang Yongzhen did not waste any more precious energy, but rolled her eyes and looked at the people watching around her.
Zhao Jiu understood and immediately turned around. Without the official saying anything, Yang Yizhong next to him knew it very well, but immediately ordered: "Everyone get out. Zhang Qilang has something to say to the official in private!"
Although everyone in the tent was curious, no one dared to neglect him. Under the leadership of the commander Qiao Zhongfu, a group of onlookers including soldiers, doctors, and civilians came out of the tent to hide.
After a moment, Zhang Yongzhen still said nothing, but his eyes rested on Yang Yizhong again.
This time, before Zhao Jiu could turn around, Yang Yizhong knew what was going on and got out of the way. For a while, only Zhao Jiu and Zhang Yongzhen were left in the tent.
"I, I... made a show of being an official today. If you want... a dead man like me... you have to be a high-ranking official, the kind who can... be the wife of a wife..." It was a bit surprising, but not enough to make anyone happy.
Zhao Jiu was surprised that when Zhang Yongzhen was dying, he did not have any ancient heroic ambitions, but asked for posthumous treatment.
"This is natural." Zhao Jiu Benn held the other party's cold hand and responded almost without hesitation. "After Zhang Qing goes, there will definitely be a pursuit. If you find your family members who stayed in Yan'an Mansion in the future,
, the elders and their wives were granted imperial orders and given official positions, and their son must also be given a great official position... Not only that, one day there will be peace in the future, I will make you Zhang Yongzhen the river god of the Huaihe River, build a temple for you, and be respected by the world.
Human incense.”
Hearing these words, Zhang Yongzhen's pale face turned red, and her hands gained a little strength, but she managed to smile: "How...how can a person like me be a god?"
Just when Zhao Jiu was about to say more, Zhang Yongzhen didn't stop: "It's just a fall for the gods, it's just for the officials. Officials, officials."
"you say."
"Today...my brothers on the boat today..."
"Don't worry, there are nine people in this boat. They will become immortals with you in the future. If they have families, if they are found in the future, they will definitely have an explanation! Is there any explanation?"
"Yes, yes! My wife...if, if she remarries...I am petty...officials must..."
"I know," Zhao Jiu changed his face slightly and tried his best to answer. "She must not be given an imperial edict!"
Zhang Yongzhen's breath slowed down slightly, but she tried her best to say again: "It's better to give it to her... It's hard for her too... And if, if Yan'an Mansion can't find them, they may not know... whether he's going back to his hometown in Longxi
Already."
"I have remembered it all!" When Zhao Jiu heard this, her nose was slightly sour, but she managed to stop it and continued to maintain a serious expression. "Your wife will be ordered to marry no matter she remarries. If Yan'an Mansion cannot find your family,
But go to your hometown and look for it... Don't worry, I will surrender to you. As long as I can fight back, I will definitely find your family for you. You want to see people in life, and you want to see corpses in death! It's not just you, you have a boatload of brothers today,
I will do my best to give you a result!"
Only then did Zhang Yongzhen feel completely relieved, with a slight smile on her face.
"Is there any explanation?" Zhao Jiu continued to ask.
"Official, official." Zhang Yongzhen spoke again, but his breath became shorter and faster, and there was an obvious noise in his chest. "You, you treat me and us... so, so happily, if there is a word, if not
Say, I'm afraid, I'm afraid...I'm sorry for you...You, come here...Mo, don't let outsiders listen..."
Zhao Jiu hurriedly listened.
And Zhang Yongzhen suddenly burst out with all her strength. While holding Zhao Jiu's hand tightly, she tried her best to speak in the ear of Zhao Guanjia:
"I know that the official family is trying to buy people's hearts. I knew it from the beginning! I went crazy on the river today. It was not for you, the official family, nor for loyalty, nor for any reward... I, I just want to go back.
Home, I want to go home...I want to go crazy! Yes, I'm sorry..."
After struggling to say this, Zhang Yongzhen just lay back and took two more breaths. Before she could catch her third breath, she died on the couch on the spot.
When Zhao Jiu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then saw the other person dying in front of him. But for some reason, he just felt that something had smashed his heart and lungs, but he held the other person's hand, and for a moment
The tears fell uncontrollably, and then I felt it was hard to calm down, so I simply let go of everything and started crying like a flood opening the floodgates!
Besides, there were countless officers and sergeants of the Western Army who came to watch outside the tent, as well as important civil and military officials who came after hearing the news. When they first heard the crying, they wanted to go inside to persuade them, but Yang Yizhong, who was nearest, even extended his hand.
I went to lift the curtain, but suddenly I heard the sound of crying so loudly behind me, almost in unison, that no one dared to move forward easily.
ps: Thanks to my aunt for supporting me and giving me the reward.
