Chapter 548

The clash of swords and guns and the deafening shouts of killing finally stopped!

The world seemed to have regained its tranquility. He was standing there with a knife in his hand. His bright breastplate had been stained red by blood. His hair was hanging down in front of him, and blood beads were dripping from time to time.

Blood is red.

Red blood was dripping along the lower edge of the breastplate, and there were dozens of feather arrows stuck on the breastplate.

Yu Shujie stood there like this, holding a knife in one hand and a flag in the other. The flag was the Ming Dynasty's flag, and it was full of arrow holes.

Despite this, the sun and moon are still clearly visible. The red flag, golden sun, and silver moon are the sun and moon of the Ming Dynasty. And the bright universe of the Ming Dynasty was forged with blood.

In front of him, the road leading to the bridge was littered with corpses, including those from the official army and those from the shun army. Of course, there were more corpses from the shun army.

Although everyone could see that he had no strength left, the surrounding Shun soldiers only surrounded him with their spears from a distance. No one dared to take the initiative to step forward. It seemed that the corpse at his feet was there to remind him.

Watching everyone, what kind of price will they pay for stepping forward.

They just held the spears in their hands and looked nervously at the bloody man in front of them. No one dared to take a step forward. Everyone kept a distance of ten feet.

However, Yu Shujie had no energy to pay attention to them. He stood there quietly with his eyelids drooped. In this way, the two sides were in a stalemate, and there was silence between heaven and earth.

"Confucius said... to become benevolent, Mencius said to take... righteousness, only... only its, righteousness is exhausted, so benevolence, benevolence is the most..."

Although Yu Shujie's consciousness was somewhat blurred due to excessive blood loss, he was still reciting this poem that he had recited since he was a child.

When Yu Shujie lowered his head and murmured, several horses came forward and stopped their horses at a distance of about ten feet.

"Listen, Yu Junmen, as long as you surrender to my Dashun, I will definitely not treat you badly."

As soon as Li Laiheng, who was riding on the horse, spoke, Li Guo said in a deep voice.

"Laiheng, don't humiliate Yujunmen!"

A person like this will not surrender, and such persuasion to surrender will only humiliate the other party. The man in front of me is indeed a man, a real man.

As a native of the northwest, Li Guo also recognized heroes and valued heroes. He did not want to humiliate the opponent at this time, because this person was an enemy worthy of respect.

The only good thing is that there are not many people like this in Daming. Otherwise, how could Dashun be where it is today.

After stopping his son's attempt to persuade him to surrender, Li Guo bowed to Yu Shujie.

"The army gate led two thousand cavalry to fight against my Dashun's ten thousand cavalry. Although the whole army was wiped out, Li was defeated without force. Now the emperor of the Zhu family has gone away in a boat. Although the army gate is defeated, it can be said that it is a defeat."

Yourong, I don’t know if Junmen has anything else to say.”

The words coming from far away made Yu Shujie suddenly smile. He smiled brightly. Under the starry sky and the moon, the bright starlight was reflected on the river, and now no boats could be seen.

They should have gone far away. Soon, they will be joined by reinforcements from behind, and they will be safe.

Everything is worth it.

"You are a thief and I am an official. Although officials and thieves have been incompatible since ancient times, I only hope that when you bury me, you can bury me with all the soldiers. You can take away my armor and weapons after my death. I only ask for mercy."

Leave our waist tags and put them into our mouths. In this way, Yu will be under the influence of Jiuquan and also be grateful to the general for his great kindness."

The reason why Yu Shujie made such a request was because of the rogue nature of bandits, they would definitely plunder the armor, weapons, clothes, and waist badges of the fallen officers and soldiers in every battle... When they are buried in the Martyrs' Shrine in the future, they will have to rely on their waist badges to identify themselves.

Thinking about the thousands of brothers who went to war with him, but all of them died in the end. What can I do now?

That is to say, we will meet them again at the Martyrs' Shrine.

Faced with such a request, Li Guo nodded.

"General, don't worry, I will definitely warn everyone."

"Thank you..."

After these two words were spoken, Yu Shujie, who had been standing, raised his head and glanced at the flag, grinned again, and finally said to himself.

"Your Majesty, I have gone..."

After saying this, he used his last strength to put the knife on his neck while holding the knife, and then swung the knife to kill himself...

Looking at the Ming army general who collapsed suddenly, Li was speechless for a long time, and it took him a long time to speak.

"Give me the order to bury them alive, and only take away armor and weapons. They are all heroes who have contributed to us Han people, we cannot humiliate them..."

Just like that, Li Guo sat on his horse and quietly looked at the fallen Shujie and the fallen flag.

"Dad, he is just a defeated general..."

Li Guo was unhappy with his son's words.

"Laiheng, he is a general of the Defan family. He also killed Donglu and made great contributions to the country. Such a person... ugh!"

Shaking his head and sighing, Li Guo's face looked extremely ugly. He didn't even mention escaping to the emperor, nor did he order a pursuit. He couldn't catch up.

When Tang Tong arrived and asked if he wanted to pursue him, Li Guo didn't even look at him. He was holding Yu Shujie's straight knife in his hand, looking at the saw teeth left when cutting on the blade, and thinking to himself.

"Why are the officers and soldiers alike, but the gap is so huge..."

Obviously, Tang Tong didn't know what the general was thinking. Looking at the straight knife in Qi Duanxiang's hand, he took the initiative to explain.

"General Zhi, this straight sword is a special saber made by the Pinglu Army. You see its blade is straight and the tip is very sharp. The Pinglu Army specially uses this sword to break armor. When they use it, they hold it flat and then borrow it.

Charge with full power, even if Donglu is wearing thick armor..."

Suddenly, Tang Tong said in shock.

"The Pinglu army has arrived..."

Even Tang Tong himself didn't notice the fear in his words. The Pinglu army has arrived, so will the general be far behind?

Li Laiheng couldn't help but sarcastically said.

"General Tang, look at how scared you are. Even if General Pinglu has three heads and six arms, how can he be the opponent of my Dashun!"

"What the young general said is true. The general is just wondering how they came so fast. It seems that the rumors that the Pinglu army can travel thousands of miles in a day are indeed true!"

"It's not true. They are rural soldiers from Shandong. They are so tough. After fighting for so many years, I have never seen anyone as tough as them..."

After listening to his son's words, Li Guo nodded silently and then said.

"Let's go back to the capital to restore the emperor's life."

"What about the Emperor of Ming Dynasty?"

"Can't catch up!"

After saying this, Li Guo jumped on his mount and was about to leave when he gave special instructions.

"Remember, you can't touch their cards."

After that, Li Guo left the battlefield on horseback. When he left, his brows were furrowed. Looking at his father's solemn expression, Li Laiheng couldn't help but ask.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

"Laiheng, tell me, if one hundred thousand civilian soldiers and hundreds of thousands of Shandong soldiers were like them, would Dashun still be able to conquer the world?"

Li Laiheng was stunned by his father's question, and he spoke after a while.

"Probably not. This team of cavalry should be the elite of General Pinglu's army in Shandong. Naturally, they are different from ordinary soldiers and horses. You can see that they are riding tall horses from Liaodong. Perhaps even the Pinglu army himself is not seen.

There must be a few elite teams like this."

His son's words fell on Li Guo's ears. He just nodded slightly, then shook his head and said.

"Hey, it's not necessarily true. The Donglu Tatars were so powerful back then. They entered the pass and traveled thousands of miles. But when they encountered the general, they were unable to withstand a single blow. Hundreds of thousands of civilian troops defeated the Donglu and even lost their hometown.

, the prince fought and fled to the grassland, and the emperor fought and sailed out to the sea, and I don’t know where he escaped. To be honest, dad has no idea how powerful this army is. To be honest, dad has no idea..."

Li Guo frowned, and then said to himself.

"Zhang Xianzhong was also a temporary figure, but he couldn't even stop him from meeting him and he ended up dead. Let's..."

After a pause, Li Guo said softly.

"It's hard to say whether we can block them. We just hope that the emperor will ascend the throne soon. If that doesn't work, we will withdraw to Shaanxi. With the natural danger of Tongguan, we can just hold on to Shaanxi..."

Then what?

Li Guo didn't know, and he didn't think about it carefully, but as a soldier, his intuition told him that the Pinglu army was far more powerful than he imagined.

How many of the 10,000 fine knights are left now?
