Chapter 58 The Flag Reappears (Thanks to the Leader of the Autumn Wind and Drizzle)
Ma Fuzi didn't go out all night. Ge said to everyone: Shaojun is watching the map and formulating a strategy against the enemy. No one is allowed to disturb him.
Zhao Kuo hugged his mother and cried for a long time. He cried until he lost all his strength and fell asleep in his mother's arms. Zhao Kuo did not dare to move. She was afraid that she would wake up the young man who had just fallen asleep. She remained motionless.
Holding Zhao Kuo in his arms, he sat there all night. Zhao Kuo probably hadn't slept so soundly for a long time. Zhao Kuo's mother wiped away the tears on his face. Zhao Kuo snored softly and finally revealed himself in his mother's arms.
smiled.
The next day, Zhao Kuo opened his eyes, a little surprised, and hurriedly sat up. Zhao's mother looked a little tired and looked at him gently.
"Yan Jun...I am..." Zhao Kuo was still a little confused. After thinking carefully for a moment, he just remembered what happened yesterday. He was speechless and had a bit of shame on his face. He knew
, I made a fool of myself in front of my mother. Zhao Kuo's mother was a strong woman with the same personality as her father. She hated cowardly people the most, but she... Zhao Kuo slowly lowered his head.
Any mother seems to be able to see through her child's heart. This is like a natural skill possessed by mothers. The same is true for Zhao Kuo's mother. She smiled, stretched out her hand, and gently touched Zhao Kuo's forehead.
After tapping, she said: "Why do you have to learn everything from your father?"
"Um?"
"About ten years ago, your father also wanted to lead an army to attack Qin... The day before he left, he was the same way. He was extremely scared. I once asked him: You have always considered yourself a warrior, why are you afraid?
He said: A warrior does not mean that he is not afraid, but he is brave enough to face what he is afraid of. A cowardly person will avoid it because of fear, but a brave person will attack in the face of fear."
Zhao Kuo stood up slowly, with red eyes, and said seriously: "I will go to the school field today and lead the army to the battlefield."
"Please forgive me for my past mistakes. If I go this time, I may not be able to come back to accompany you. Please take care of yourself and don't be sad because of me."
Mother Zhao stood up tremblingly, leaning on a cane, and the old lady said firmly: "Go ahead! Don't be afraid! Don't back down! If you die on the battlefield, I will slaughter the cattle and sheep and accompany you with your favorite peach fruit."
, I will sacrifice to you every day. My husband and my children are both fearless warriors and heroes of the Zhao people. I will not be sad, I will be very happy!"
"You can wait for me with peace of mind with your father!"
Zhao Kuo wiped away his tears and bowed to Zhao's mother. When Zhao Kuo walked out of the courtyard, Ge had already prepared his car, and many of the guests were wearing armor, holding shields and spears, and wearing short swords.
Zhao Kuo looked at everyone solemnly. One after another, the diners held the weapons in their hands tightly and looked at him with blazing eyes. Zhao Kuo walked out and walked out of the courtyard. Unknown to him, the villagers had gathered outside the courtyard.
There are old people, women and children, and even the prison gate is here.
The chariot that Ge prepared today is a chariot. These are four horses that the people in Mafu Township gathered together for Zhao Kuo. The horses rubbed their hooves uneasily. Zhao Kuo looked at them without saying a word, and the atmosphere was very solemn.
Ge straightened his body and walked in front of Zhao Kuo. Suddenly, he knelt down on one knee. At that moment, all the diners knelt down on one knee in the direction of Zhao Kuo. The surrounding villagers bent down.
, bowed to Zhao Kuo.
Ge raised his hands, and in his hands was a long bow and a quiver. Zhao Kuo stretched out his hand, hung the quiver on his waist, held the long bow in his hand, and boarded the chariot in a few steps, standing on the left side of the chariot.
Ge Ye hurriedly sat down on the chariot, holding the reins in his hand. A retainer named Wang Fan got into the chariot's right seat. This Wang Fan was the only nobleman under Zhao Kuo's command. Of course,
He is a down-and-out noble, as you can tell from his name.
He raised the flag, with black characters on a red background and two characters Zhao, "horse uniform", embroidered with dancing dragons and phoenixes.
The retainers stood up and gathered around the military chariot, becoming the foot soldiers of the chariot. There were more than thirty people in total.
"Let's go!!!" Zhao Kuo ordered.
The horses neighed, the military chariots galloped forward, and the infantry started running quickly. At that moment, the villagers were stunned. Some elderly people pointed at the flag excitedly, their hands were trembling, and they had already burst into tears. That flag
, was once the pride of Zhao State, but now, he is the hope of Zhao State.
The military chariot was speeding, Ge glared ahead, waving the reins in his hand, the military chariot rushed out of the horse uniform and rushed towards the school grounds. Because of the speed of the Yan people's attack, it was too late to recruit soldiers from all over the Zhao Kingdom. Therefore,
King Zhao recruited nearly 20,000 soldiers near Handan. These people are now gathered at the martial arts school outside Handan, waiting for their commander, and their supplies will also be sent here, including those responsible for transporting supplies.
Civil servants and the like.
"Horse suit!!"
"Mafujun!!!"
When the military chariot charged on the road, all the Zhao people on the side of the road went crazy. They pointed at the military chariot, some shouted, and some howled. Their excitement was really hard to describe.
Some people were kowtowing on the side of the road, some were shouting, and some were running behind the military chariot. Zhao Kuo could clearly see the laughter of the children, the surprise of the old man, the excitement of the Zhao people, and the ecstatic joy.
!!!
The military chariot is getting faster and faster, the infantry are running with all their strength, their faces are ferocious, and their whole body seems to be burning. He opens his mouth, faces the wind, and waves the reins with both hands. At this moment, he seems to have returned to ten years ago.
, he drove his chariot towards the Qin people’s camp. The Qin people all over the mountains and plains were crying and fleeing. His chariot ran over one after another. The only difference was that the man who stood beside him ten years ago was
The person on the chariot has passed away, and his son is standing in this position again!
The military chariot finally arrived at the school grounds. There was a low wall surrounding the school grounds. There was only one gate. In front of the gate stood two old soldiers. Their gray hair was so conspicuous. They were already very old, but they still stood firm.
At the gate of the school ground, wearing thin clothes, trembling in the wind, the oncoming military vehicles gave them a great impact. They were in a trance. They also returned to their youth. They saw what they once were.
Commander in chief!
The old soldiers leaned over to pay homage to the commander-in-chief, and the military chariots rushed into the school grounds. Inside the school grounds, there were countless old soldiers, so densely packed that it was almost impossible to see their heads. This school grounds was the largest in Zhao State, and could accommodate up to
Fifty thousand people. The old soldiers were originally gathering together, chatting, their faces were tired, their eyes were dull, but the moment they saw the military chariot, fire burst out of their eyes.
The military chariot stopped at the side of the general platform. Zhao Kuo jumped down from the military chariot and walked directly onto the general platform. The general platform was very high and he could see the soldiers gathered around him more clearly. Zhao Kuo, dressed in military uniform, stood on the general platform.
Wang Fan, holding the hilt of the sword at his waist, looked forward and shouted: "Come together!!!". Immediately, his followers took out the flags, drums and cymbals used for giving orders. Wang Fan raised the general's flag high and stood in front of Zhao.
Behind Kuo, there was another sound of beating the bell.
Hearing the familiar orders, these old soldiers also hurriedly began to line up in front of Zhao Kuo. They were all warriors who had experienced countless wars. If they were in the Qin State, perhaps they would have been a noble class, enjoying their wealth at home.
But this is the State of Zhao, and there is no recommendation from a noble person. No matter how many enemies are killed and no matter how great achievements are made, there is still no way to improve the status of the State of Zhao.
The veterans are experienced, but their speed is very slow. They seem to be very anxious, eager to form a formation, but they can't run. They even need others to support them. During the process of lining up, they still can't run.
There were a few old men looking around blankly. As they grew older, their thinking became a little slower. They didn't react, and even fell down. They were hurriedly helped up by their colleagues. This scene was terrible to watch.
There was no disappointment or anger on Zhao Kuo's face. He looked at these old soldiers calmly. There were already casualties in his army before they even fought. Several old men fell down during the formation.
, and now he can't even stand up. It seems that he fell badly and has been carried away.
He already understood what his first military order should be.
