squeak squeak ~ squeak squeak ~ “吱吱~吱吱~” Out of the window, the first month of summer early cicada 3322 have started to cry out, the cicada whining noise somewhat seems to be perfunctory, for the first time listens more like the bird to cry. 窗外,初夏的早蝉已经三三两两开始叫唤起来,蝉鸣声似乎有些敷衍,乍听更像是鸟啼。 But carves cloud pattern the atmosphere in wooden window also because of clear/pain Xianping a few words is becoming constrains instantaneously. 而雕着云纹的木窗之内的气氛也因楚先平的一句话瞬间变得压抑。 Since flourishing Xiaoe died, this is the first time that Wei Changtian saw clear/pain Xianping to reveal the so not calm appearance. 自打殷小蛾死了之后,这还是魏长天第一次见楚先平露出这般不淡定的模样。 Therefore...... 所以...... What's wrong?” “怎么了?” Knits the brows, Wei Changtian puts to start gently tea: Was that side Capital City has an accident?” 皱了皱眉,魏长天轻轻搁下手中茶盏:“是京城那边出事了么?” „It is not.” “不是。” clear/pain Xianping shakes the head slightly, simultaneously looked at Xu Qingwan one. 楚先平微微摇头,同时看了徐青婉一眼。 Changtian, Young Master clear/pain, you spoke.” 长天,楚公子,你们说话。” The latter understands clear/pain Xianping the meaning, therefore had not said that asked anything, then turned around to go out of the room quickly. 后者明白楚先平的意思,因此并没有多说多问什么,很快便转身走出房间。 Until the sound of footsteps vanishes thoroughly does not see, clear/pain Xianping then deeply inspires, will look at Wei Changtian. 直到脚步声彻底消失不见,楚先平这才深吸一口气,重新将目光投向魏长天 Young master, is Sir beam.” “公子,是梁大人。” beam Zhen?” “梁振?” The Wei Changtian pupil shrinks, then responded instantaneously. 魏长天瞳孔一缩,瞬间便反应了过来。 It seems like previous worry to become true. 看来是自己此前的担忧成真了。 What had? Does Uncle Liang and seep the present to be well?” “发生了什么?梁叔和沁儿如今可还安好?” Young master, Sir beam and beam miss does not have the sorrow of life at present temporarily.” “公子,梁大人和梁姑娘眼下暂无性命之忧。” clear/pain Xianping lowers the head reports to say truthfully: Two people situations are very dangerous......” 楚先平低头如实汇报道:“不过两人的处境却十分危险......” „......” “......” ...... ...... After half double-hour . 半个时辰后。 In the garden in new dwelling, Wei Changtian is boldly thrusting forward to be built on a pavilion, the body side horizontal is slanting several old trees of luxuriant growth of leaves and branches, before the body, is a flake pond. 新宅的庭院中,魏长天正挺身立于一座凉亭之中,身侧横斜着几棵枝繁叶茂的古树,身前是一小片池塘。 In Lian Lian clear wave, all round green leaves dewdrop clear, leisure roaming drag of more than hundred kois under lotus leaf, fish lip slightly, seems the dewdrop that waits to snatch to eat that to creaky. 潋潋清波中,团团翠叶露珠晶莹,百余尾锦鲤在莲叶下慢悠悠的游曳,鱼唇微张,好似在等着去抢吃那摇摇欲坠的露珠。 Two days ago, is even more disadvantageous because of the original state war, this war commanding general Wu Ding decided that abandons the city to withdraw, in original state city latter inside and outside 500, topography more easily defensible sealing district again arrange/cloth release/place. 两天前,因原州战事愈发不利,此战主将邬定决定弃城后撤,在原州城后五百里外,地势更为易守难攻的封县重新布放。 Abandons the original state city, withdraws 500 li (0.5 km). 弃原州城,后撤五百里。 Cannot be victorious probably on first hearing preparation escaping, but in fact this indeed is strategic shift. 乍一听好像是打不过准备“逃跑”,但实际上这的的确确是“战略转移”。 Seals the district in the original state, the inevitable location to Daning center, the strategic position be higher than the original state city, has the natural defenses to depend on let alone, defends to want easy many. 封县同在原州境内,是通往大宁腹地的必经之地,战略地位本就要比原州城高,更何况还有天险可依,守起来要容易的多。 Actually because original state city symbolic significance is bigger, actually in should give up the original state city from the beginning directly, is sealing the district fortification to be right directly. 其实要不是因为原州城的“象征意义”更大,其实早在一开始就应该直接放弃原州城,直接在封县设防才对。 Therefore this strategy decides not to have the issue. 所以说这个战略决定倒没问题。 The real issue was in the subsequent execution level. 真正的问题是出在了此后的执行层面上。 Hundreds of thousands of armies abandon the city to withdraw, outside the city also has in a big way presents the army to eye covetously. 数十万大军弃城后撤,城外又有大奉军队虎视眈眈。 Must know that this is a big project, was not said simply can walk. 要知道这可是一个大工程,绝不是简简单单说走就能走的。 At least, if wants safe withdrawal as far as possible, then needs some people bring up the rear. 最起码,如果想要尽可能的安全撤离,那么便必须要有人来殿后。 But Shu State army and Liangzhou army very unfortunate shouldered this responsibility. 而蜀州军和凉州军则很不幸的承担起了这个责任。 Military commands are strictly obeyed. 军令如山。 How the non- hollow beam inspires the military officers with Liangzhou not to want, since commanding general Wu Ding so arranges, that then can only carry out. 不管梁振和凉州的将领如何不愿意,既然主将邬定是如此安排的,那便只能执行。 Although brings up the rear truly dangerously, but did not say that means was sacrificed. 并且虽然殿后确实危险,但也不是说就意味着“被牺牲”。 If presents that side response is not prompt greatly, or does not want to take risk to pursue blocks off, then the big probability also loses soldiers much. 如果大奉那边反应不及时,亦或是不想冒险追击堵截,那么大概率也就是多损失一点兵卒而已。 Pitifully the reality is only not true. 只可惜现实并非如此。 In April 14, resist the offensive of greatly presenting after during the daytime reluctantly, the Daning army in the night from original state city east, the defending soldier above city wall also changed into the Shu State army and Liangzhou army all. 四月十四,白天勉强又抵挡住大奉的攻势之后,大宁军队于深夜自原州城东门而出,城墙之上的守兵也尽数换成了蜀州军和凉州军。 At the beginning all conduct very smooth, but when the Liangzhou army preparation withdraws from the original state city, does not know where braves presents the cavalry actually to kill greatly suddenly, cut off their with the Daning army relation that previously withdrew directly. 开始时一切进行的十分顺利,但就当凉州军准备撤离原州城时,一支不知从哪里冒出来的大奉骑兵却突然杀出,直接斩断了他们与先前撤出的大宁军队的联系。 The Liangzhou army be forced to return to the body to go back to defend a city with the Shu State army together, preparation and other Wu Dingpai the people kills the support. 凉州军迫于无奈只得返身回去与蜀州军一同守城,准备等邬定派人杀回来支援。 However, the withdrawn army actually the meaning turn head. 然而,已经撤走的大军却并没有要回头的意思。 In other words. 换句话说。 The Liangzhou army and Shu State army, total 70,000 soldiers, were abandoned in the original state city. 凉州军和蜀州军,共计七万兵卒,就这么被抛弃在了原州城。 Their only functions are hinder to present the step that the army attacks greatly, is the army is sealing the district to construct the defense line to win the time. 他们唯一的作用便是阻滞大奉军队进攻的步伐,为大军在封县构筑防线争取时间。 To achieve this goal, they will defend an this solitary one city by 70,000 numbers alone. 而为了达成这个目标,他们将以七万之数独守一座孤城。 Facing actually presents 500,000 elite forces greatly. 面对的,却是大奉五十万精兵强将。 ...... ...... According to this morning is in the same boat the latest information that can transmit, presented greatly had surrounded the original state city yesterday completely, Wu Ding also not turned back in order to help friendly forces the plan of original state city firmly......” “按照今早同舟会传来的最新情报,大奉昨日已将原州城完全包围,邬定也确无回援原州城的打算......” The cool breeze slowly, stands after behind clear/pain first puts down forward one step , asked: 清风徐徐,站在身后的楚先平向前一步,顿了一顿后问道: Young master, what do we want to make?” “公子,我们要做点什么吗?” Makes anything...... 做点什么...... Wei Changtian takes back looks into the vision of distant place, takes off a shell cicada slough used in Chinese medicine from the side old tree conveniently. 魏长天收回眺望远方的目光,随手从旁边古树上摘下一壳蝉蜕。 Spatial has its, among does not have. 空有其型,却无其内。 Cicada slough used in Chinese medicine in this shell, but the former only may live a summer, the latter is survivable. 蝉蜕于此壳,但前者只可活一夏,后者却可长存。 Wei Changtian does not know that which cicada this cicada slough used in Chinese medicine is on the tree, does not know own this time can does anything for beam Zhen and Liang Qin. 魏长天不知道这枚蝉蜕是树上哪只蝉的,亦不知自己此时能为梁振和梁沁做些什么。 Actually his even not clear all these are planning of Ning Yongnian, but also is only the accident/surprise that in the battlefield sometimes happened. 他甚至都不清楚这一切究竟是宁永年的算计,还只是战场上时有发生的意外。 In battle between countries, in battlefield that in ten million people crowd around, the strengths of people or several people were extremely really insignificant. 在国与国的争斗之中,在千万人簇拥的战场上,一个人或者几个人的力量实在太过微不足道了。 Is ordinary on such as this summer cicada, small and weak, and did not know. 就如这夏蝉一般,弱小且不自知。 Let alone...... seem has not helped beam Zhen father and daughter's necessity. 更何况......自己好似并没有帮助梁振父女的必要。 Now Liu Family has extinguished, cloud lotus has died, the Shu state is completely controlling, even also achieved wishes to marry Xu Qingwan. 如今柳家已灭,云莲已死,蜀州尽在掌控,甚至还如愿娶到了徐青婉 So long as want, yearned for a long time wife and kid hot head the life is then extremely easy to obtain, and big probability can continue for a long time. 只要自己愿意,向往已久的“老婆孩子热炕头”的生活便唾手可得,且大概率可以长久的延续下去。 Once mixes the original state war...... 而一旦掺和进原州战事...... That all these easy and comfortable will not then exist, during oneself will return the inexhaustible danger and conspiracy, to rush about and slaughter. 那这一切安逸便将不复存在,自己又会重新回到无穷无尽的危险、阴谋、奔波和杀戮之中。 Therefore...... really can make the cicada slough used in Chinese medicine that can exist forever? 所以......真的要做一枚可以长存的蝉蜕么? „......” “......” Silent for a long time, Wei Changtian arrives at the pavilion suddenly slowly, is situated in one side of the pond. 沉默了许久,魏长天突然慢慢走到亭边,立于池塘一侧。 The koi in pond crowds around immediately, rushing to be first is looking at a young man of this black clothes, waits for the latter to sprinkle to eat. 池中的锦鲤立刻簇拥过来,争先恐后的望着这个一身黑衣的年轻男子,等待后者洒下吃食。 Ka squeak......” “咔吱......” Both hands twist, the light cicada slough used in Chinese medicine changes to the innumerable disintegrating slags, falls on the water surface with the wind, actually cannot splash the half silk ripples. 双手一捻,薄薄的蝉蜕化作无数碎渣,随风落在水面,却溅不起半丝涟漪。 Looks that the under foot fought to make one group of fish, Wei Changtian answered clear/pain finally first a square issue. 看着脚下争抢作一团的鱼儿,魏长天终于回答了楚先平方才的问题。 Although summer cicada is tiny, but they rather called, was not also silent lives. 夏蝉虽然渺小,但它们宁可鸣死,亦不默生。 clear/pain brother, arranges.” “楚兄,安排一下吧。” Tonight we walk.” “今夜我们就走。” Goes to the original state.” “去原州。” ...... ...... ...... ...... That night, outside Shu state city. 当夜,蜀州城外。 Several hold the flare to reflect the face of bright people, reflected to shine several jet black horse-drawn vehicles. 几举火把映亮众人的脸庞,亦映亮了几辆漆黑的马车。 But under the moonlight to people not far away, Wei Changtian is saying goodbye with Xu Qingwan. 而就在离众人不远处的月光下,魏长天正在跟徐青婉道别。 His goes to the original state certainly to keep secret, but is not a short time then can come back after all, therefore cannot hide the truth from little Comrade slow again. 他此去原州肯定要保密,但毕竟不是一时半会儿便能回来的,所以总不能再瞒着小徐同志了。 Waner, I know that you do not want me to go, but this time......” “婉儿,我知道你不愿意我去,但这次......” Changtian, I have not wanted.” 长天,我没有不愿意的。” Xu Qingwan bears several tears that forcefully wants to flow copiously, makes own sound tranquiler diligently. 徐青婉强行忍住几欲夺眶而出的泪水,努力让自己的声音平静一些。 Uncle Liang and beam Miss were stranded the original state city, you should save them.” “梁叔和梁姑娘被困原州城,你应该去救他们。” I and I want to accompany you to go together......” “我、我只是想陪你同去而已......” „......” “......” In the heart sighed secretly, Wei Changtian has held the hand of Xu Qingwan gently, has not explained anything. 心中暗自叹了口气,魏长天轻轻拉过徐青婉的手,并没有解释什么。 Xu Qingwan understands certainly why oneself cannot she go together. 徐青婉是一定明白自己为什么不许她同去的。 This you receive.” “这个你收好。” Puts a golden tiger tally in the latter palm, Wei Changtian says with a smile: I they rescued to come back Uncle Liang, quick.” 将一枚金色虎符搁在后者手心,魏长天笑道:“等我把梁叔他们救出来就回来了,很快的。” Un.” “嗯。” Xu Qingwan grasps firmly the tiger tally stubbornly, the next quarter actually loosens the Wei Changtian's back to pass away suddenly suddenly, only then shoulder in shivering of slightly being able to stop. 徐青婉死死攥住虎符,下一刻却突然松开魏长天的手猛然背过身去,只有肩头在止不住的微微颤抖。 When follows Wei Changtian leaves Beijing, little Comrade slow cannot bear the pain that this leaves. 跟上次魏长天离京时一样,小徐同志还是受不了这离别的痛苦。 The stream rising cool breeze blows, moonset star-studded sky. 溪涨清风拂面,月落繁星满天。 Wei Changtian looks at the close frail back, puts out a hand to send in the latter strokes gently. 魏长天看着近在咫尺的单薄背影,伸手于后者发间轻轻一拂。 Myriad black hair lean to scatter like a waterfall, in the hand were many a section of red thread. 万千青丝如瀑布般倾撒而下,手中多了一截红绳。 Walked, when I come back.” “走了,等我回来。” In the even more remote sound of footsteps, the last few words also become illusory. 在越发遥远的脚步声中,最后一句话也变得虚无缥缈。 A Shu state city quietness, although had just suffered the floods unseen in thousand years, but all have actually been back on the right track now gradually. 身后的蜀州城一片静谧,虽刚遭遇过千年未遇的水灾,但如今一切却已渐渐重回正轨。 In such an ordinary summer night, bustled about day of people to go off. 在这样一个再平常不过的夏夜里,忙碌了一天的人们早已睡去。 The innumerable young cicadas will emerge as the times require in this time, they climb up tall branch, works loose that body that furiously does not have the wing, then...... 无数幼蝉会在此时破土而出,它们爬上高枝,奋力挣脱那具没有翅膀的躯壳,然后......
