...

Gaomi and Ouyang Wu had a long conversation in the middle of the two armies for nearly half an hour. When they talked about some fun in the army, they couldn't help laughing loudly. The expression was very natural, and there was no sign of softness and artificiality...

After a long time, Gao Mi looked at Ouyang Wu, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by endless sorrow. Finally, she sighed and said, "Ouyang Laogui, it has been more than thirty years, and you and I are old. The old brothers under your command used to be able to speak alively, are you and me the only ones who can speak alively, right?"

Ouyang Wu said, "Yes, we are old. Look at you, your beard has white beards. In the past, my brothers either died of battle or died of illness. If you can live in the world, it can be considered as leaving me Ouyang Wu with a thought..."

Gao Mi was silent, Ouyang Wu also fell silent. For a moment, the atmosphere became very solemn, and there was only the mighty whistle and a strong smell of blood that blew past him.

When he was young, Gao Mi spoke lightly and said to Ouyang Wu: "Old Gui Ouyang, stop holding on, surrender, I will share this country with you. I really don't want to lose the last old brother anymore..."

Ouyang Wu shook his head and said with a smile: "Komi, for so many years, you should know my character. You would rather die than surrender to the enemy..."

Gaomi said: "Is this Great Zhou really worthy of your support? Everything the Great Zhou royal family gave you, Gaomi... no, we can fight for it ourselves, and it is even better than before..."

Ouyang Wu said: "The Great Zhou gave me the honor of the Ouyang family. I cannot betray the Great Zhou. Don't try to convince me, just like I won't persuade you to change your mind. Of course, if you change your temperament, I will look at you with admiration..."

Gao Mi smiled bitterly, his eyes full of reluctance and sadness: "Is it destined that my brothers from the Second Regiment and Five Banners are the only ones who will be the last one? This... is this too cruel..."

Ouyang Wu smiled and said, "It's okay, Gaomi, my brothers from Wuqi, will be waiting to reunite with you in the nine springs. At that time, I will still be your boss..."

Upon hearing this, Gao Mi couldn't help but turn her face, wiped her red eyes, and snorted coldly, "This smell of blood is so choking, it's really eye-catching..."

Ouyang Wu looked at Gaomi silently and suddenly burst into laughter and said, "I didn't expect that your Gaomi child would still cry. When you were scratched by a barbarian, you didn't frown, but now you actually burst into tears? It really opened my eyes..."

Gao Mi smiled and shook her head helplessly: "I said the smell of blood is too strong, don't believe it..."

The two laughed for a while, and Gao Mi suddenly said, "Ouyang Laogui, go, I really can't kill you."

Ouyang Wu shook his head and said, "Child Gaomi, are you pitying me? Don't forget that I have taught you all..."

Gao Mi said, "Li Suwen will not come. He was ambushed by the Wei River and had already retreated to Yongzhou. I had long said that this kid had a reputation and I had no use to deal with him. I was sent to a side teacher.

There are other troops who have not come, and you are just alone, so why should you persist? Go back, go back to Shu, stop working for the Great Zhou court, you have already fulfilled your responsibility to it..."

Ouyang Wu said: "As long as I, Ouyang Wu, did not take off the armor on my body for a day, I would be a soldier from the Great Zhou for a day, and I would have the responsibility to fight for the Great Zhou in all directions. There was no need to persuade me anymore. Regardless of whether there were reinforcements or not, I would fight to the end. From the moment I left Shu, I never thought of going back."

Gao Mi sighed and asked again, "Then do you have any last wishes to explain?"

"Take care, those old guys and I are watching you below..."

Ouyang Wu left a sentence, then stood up and walked towards the Shu army array.

"Old Gui Ouyang, you must wait for me below. You must not be reincarnated before I arrive!"

Gaomi stood up and roared at Ouyang Wu's back, saying his final farewell.

...

Ouyang Wu returned to the Shu army formation, looked at the Shu army with a glance, and then shouted: "The whole army obeyed the order!"

"Roar~"

Nearly ten thousand soldiers roared together, and the long roar echoed passionately above the empty field. All the soldiers in the front row were staring at the Imperial Tiger General.

Ouyang Wu said: "Now, I want to explain to you the current situation. We have been surrounded by rebel groups. Today, I am afraid that there will be no life. You are still young. I will give you a chance.

Those who are willing to surrender will leave the line. Even if you go to the Gaomi camp, I will not blame you. If you don’t want to, then follow me and fight the rebels to the end in this wilderness, leaving all the last drop of blood! You can choose it yourself!"

As soon as Ouyang Wu finished speaking, the entire army fell into a brief silence.

Suddenly, a Shu army soldier made a humble voice.

"The bloody battle to the end..."

Immediately afterwards, more and more soldiers shouted together, forming a passionate fighting spirit.

"Bloody battle to the end~~"

"Bloody battle to the end~~"

"Bloody battle to the end~~"

At this moment, knowing that they would die, these elite border troops who came out of Shu chose to face death without hesitation. It was not for the sake of the Great Zhou, but just to follow the iron-blooded general whom they respected the most.

Ouyang Wu nodded vigorously, then suddenly pulled out his sword and pointed it at Changzhou Prefecture in the distance...

"Brothers, follow my general's big banner and attack Changzhou City~"

"Aoah~"

With a command, nearly 10,000 soldiers of Shu army roared and scrambled, rushing to follow Ouyang Wu and rushing towards Changzhou City.

"Ouyang Laogui, alas..."

Seeing the Shu army launching an offensive, Gao Mi sighed and waved his hand...

“Woo~~”

The dull and sharp horn sounded, and the Qi army from all directions formed a formation and slowly rushed towards Ouyang Wu's Shu army.

The two armies intersected for a moment and immediately launched the most tragic battle. The bloody battle between the enemy and us did not distinguish between right and wrong, but they only fought desperately for their faith. Although the result of this battle was self-evident...

The sunset sets in the west, and the fierce battle finally came to an end. The wilderness outside Changzhou City was full of corpses of soldiers, and even the land was stained with blood.

The soldiers of Qi army began to be busy cleaning the battlefield. Several teams of soldiers wrapped the bodies together, and treated them carefully, regardless of the enemy.

Gao Mi looked at Ouyang Wu who had dozens of arrows in the flat car, endured the grief, removed the arrows on his body one by one, and finally took the big cage and covered his body...

"Old Gui Ouyang, you must wait for me when you get down there! Don't be reincarnated early!"

Gaomi shouted at Ouyang Wu's body and waved his hand and asked someone to pull the car away.

...

April 12th, Wudu, the palace...

"Emperor~ Something big happened~"

While Wei Zhen was thinking hard about how to deal with Gaomi while "Imperial Study Room" and Prince Wei Ran, Jin Sheng shouted all the way and rushed into the study room, kneeling in front of Wei Zhen with a sad face, his face covered with tears.

When Wei Zhen heard this, he and Wei Ran looked at Jin Sheng together, waiting for him to continue talking.

But Jin Sheng wiped his tears and said, "Emperor, come to report on the front line. Gaomi rebels divided their troops to defeat the prince-consor and the old general Ouyang. The prince-consor was ambushed by the Wei River and was repelled by Gaomi's son Gao Xiang.

In the battle with Gaomi's army, Old General Ouyang was surrounded and fought with the rebels for three days and nights in isolation. In the end, the 40,000 troops were wiped out. Old General Ouyang was even more...stained from the battlefield..."

After hearing Jin Sheng's words, Wei Zhen did not come back to his senses for a long time. Finally, he sat back on the chair with a dull look, and his palms turned into fists and squeezed them tightly.

"Ouyang Wu is dead..."

After a long time, Wei Zhen said this sentence in a daze. Obviously he was scared, because Ouyang Wu was his only hope to return to Beijing now. Now, the last hope in his mind has also been shattered.

Wei Zhen felt deeply regretful because this time Ouyang Wu left Sichuan was completely forced by himself. No matter how Ouyang Wu persuaded him, it was useless. In desperation, he had to take 40,000 elite troops who retreated from Longzhou to embark on this dead end with no chance of victory.

The 40,000 elite troops were wiped out, and his son-in-law was defeated and retreated to Yongzhou. The troops returned to Beijing were nowhere to be seen...

In Wei Zhen's eyes, there seemed to be no hope again.

"You all go down first, let me calm down..."

Wei Zhen was extremely decadent and waved his hand to let Jin Sheng and Wei Ran, who wanted to comfort him, leave the study.

After the two of them bowed, they carefully left the imperial study room.

As soon as he left the imperial study room, Jin Sheng pulled Wei Ran aside and whispered: "Your Highness, the old lady has prepared a carriage for you outside the palace gate. You should go back to your room to clean up. When it is not too late, go out of the city quickly. Someone outside the city will pick you up..."

Wei Ran was shocked when she heard this and hurriedly said, "Uncle Jin, what do you mean?"

Jin Sheng said, "Your Highness, you have seen it. The emperor has become more and more anxious these days and is unable to do anything. If this continues, I am afraid that the country of Great Zhou will really not be able to be protected.

At present, only the Prince, you have the hope of turning the tide and saving this shaky Great Zhou Dynasty…”

Wei Ran said: "No, at this time, the father needs us as our son's company. As the prince, how can I abandon him..."

Jin Sheng said anxiously: "Your Highness, what the emperor needs now is not a family companionship, but how to calm the chaos!

Do you know why there are few responses in various places since the issuance of the order to reign over the king? It is because the royal family's prestige is no longer as good as before!

With the death of the Old General Ouyang, families everywhere will not take the royal family seriously. If you want to change the current situation, someone in the royal family must stand up and turn the situation around. Your Highness the Crown Prince, you are the most suitable candidate..."

Wei Ran pondered for a moment when he heard this, so he bowed to Jin Sheng and asked, "Uncle Jin, please teach me how to do it?"

Upon hearing this, Jin Sheng glanced around and came to Wei Ran and said, "Your Highness, please listen, leave Wudu City and meet with the person who will meet you. He immediately set off for Lingwu to find General Xu Chongming. The old slave entrusts all his life savings to him.

When His Highness the Crown Prince arrives at Lingwu, I will use the money left to you by the old slave to recruit righteous men. After the momentum is formed, I will turn this world around and restore my country and country in the Great Zhou..."

After hearing this, Wei Ran asked in confusion: "Uncle Jin, why did you help me like this?"

Jin Sheng sighed and said, "I have grown up in the palace since I was a child. Just like my own family, the royal family is in trouble. How many good ends do you think we eunuchs can have?

Helping you is like helping the old slave himself. Well, Your Highness, you can set off quickly and stop wasting your time..."

After saying that, Jin Sheng kept urging Wei Ran to leave quickly.

Wei Ran was moved, and before leaving, he bowed heavily to Jin Sheng, and turned around and left resolutely.

"Your Highness, the old man has bet his life on you. Don't let me down..."

Jin Sheng looked at Wei Ran's distant figure, sighed and turned around and left.

Unexpectedly, this scene was long seen by Wei Chi, who was hiding behind the rockery not far away.
