Adhere to the gentleman's principles

Chapter 216 Heaven and man are separated forever

In Jingzhou, Shen Congwen was guarding Qingyang Pass. If this pass was breached, it would lead to Xunyang City, and then Jingzhou would be truly lost.

Yu Yuanqing looked at Shen Congwen on the tower, "Are you Shen Yu's son?"

Shen Congwen said: "Your grandfather has always kept his name and surname. Since you recognize him, you should know how powerful I am."

"Yes, I know how powerful you are. It is indeed a great honor for you to kill my 50,000 soldiers. Today, I will lead the troops myself and use your head as a sacrifice to my 50,000 soldiers." Yu Yuanqing said.

Shen Congwen laughed and said, "What a joke! This is the first time I've heard such a joke. Your father is gone. How long do you think you can live?"

Yu Yuanqing was enraged by this, "Attack! Kill all the people at Qingyang Pass without leaving a single one alive. Each person killed will receive 20 taels of silver."

Shen Congwen saw that the troops behind him were not enough, so he said to the person beside him: "You go back to Xunyang City and guard it first."

"No, sir, I have to accompany you."

Tsk, what is it? You still don't believe me? This Yu Yuanqing is no match for me. I asked you to go back so that you can tell my father to prepare in advance. Yu Yuanqing has 250,000 soldiers this time. Let's go."

More than half an hour later, the gate of Qingyang Pass was broken, and the soldiers fought hard. Shen Congwen was fighting against five alone, but the few could not defeat the many. Soon Shen Congwen's troops were overwhelmed by Yu Yuanqing's. Yu Yuanqing saw Shen Congwen being surrounded alone, and he watched on his horse. Shen Congwen fought left and right, and suddenly a spear pierced his chest. He cut off the spear and continued to fight, but when he was exhausted, one spear after another pierced him. Shen Congwen killed another soldier with one knife and looked at Yu Yuanqing, who smiled at him sarcastically.

Yu Yuanqing tightly gripped the bow and arrow in his hand, his eyes filled with endless viciousness and determination.

The young man who once rode a horse and sang with Li Ziyan and Xu Wenhe, full of vigor and elegance, was now covered in blood and in a terrible state. However, despite being seriously injured, Shen Congwen still used up the last bit of his strength to stand up with difficulty. He looked up at the sky and sighed: "I, Shen Congwen, have no regrets about coming to this world, and I feel honored to be a citizen of the Great Wei! The only regret is that in the end, I still cannot realize my wish of drinking and singing with my best friends..."

"A person's life is but a hundred years. But as long as you can try your best to do what you want to do, your life will not be in vain." After saying this, Shen Congwen's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and then slowly closed his eyes.

At this moment, Yu Yuanqing suddenly narrowed his eyes and shot an arrow without hesitation, hitting Shen Congwen's heart accurately. Shen Congwen, who was seriously injured, did not fall down, but firmly held the spear beside him with his hands, and would rather die than surrender and kneel down to beg for mercy.

Seeing this, Yu Yuanqing dismounted and slowly walked to Shen Congwen, with a hint of contempt on his face: "Tie him up and hang him in front of the marching vehicle for public display!"

It took two hours from Qingyang Pass to Xunyang City. When Shen Yu saw Yu Yuanqing's troops, he knew that Shen Congwen was no longer there. He suppressed the grief of losing his son and said, "Be on guard and prepare for the battle."

The war was about to break out. It was obvious that Shen Yu's troops were weaker than Yu Yuanqing's. Yu Yuanqing enjoyed watching the fight. Shen Yu looked at the body of Shen Congwen, the head of the marching vehicle, and he wished he could kill Yu Yuanqing right now.

When Li Ziyan and Xu Wenhe led a 100,000-strong army to Xunyang City, the entire battlefield instantly fell into chaos. Fortunately, although Yu Yuanqing suffered heavy losses, he also made the enemy pay a heavy price, which can be said to be a loss of 800 of our own for every 1,000 wounds. In addition, the elite troops brought by Li Ziyan joined the battle, and the situation quickly reversed, and Yu Yuanqing began to gradually fall into a disadvantage.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Yu Yuanqing became timid and tried to flee the battlefield. But Li Ziyan and Xu Wenhe saw this and their anger grew. Especially when they saw Shen Congwen's lifeless body, they were furious.

Xu Wenhe flashed and leaped onto a military vehicle like a flying bird, then struck a fierce blow, breaking Yu Yuanqing's legs. Yu Yuanqing screamed and fell off the vehicle.

Li Ziyan stepped forward and looked coldly at Yu Yuanqing who was lying on the ground. Yu Yuanqing was terrified and said in a trembling voice: "What are you going to do? I know I was wrong. I surrender. I will never fight again!"

Li Ziyan snorted coldly and cursed with disdain on his face: "You are an incompetent person, just a coward and a wimp!" Before he finished speaking, he raised his knife and a cold light flashed. Blood spurted out from Yu Yuanqing's neck, staining the ground red.

On the other side, Xu Wenhe silently carried Shen Congwen's body and slowly walked into the city. The two stared at Shen Congwen's face, recalling the time when they had drunk wine and talked and laughed together more than a month ago, and they couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. Things are unpredictable, and now the person in front of them is separated from the Yin and Yang.

On the bank of the vast Yellow River, a simple and solemn tombstone stands, which is the resting place of Shen Congwen. Li Ziyan and Xu Wenhe stood quietly in front of the tomb, and the good old days kept emerging in their minds - riding horses and galloping among the sea of ​​flowers, as if they were in a fairyland.

Li Ziyan whispered softly: "Congwen, we are here to see you. You are still as stubborn as when you were a child!" Endless longing and sadness were revealed in his words.

Xu Wenhe at the side couldn't help but sigh: "Shen Congwen, do you still remember? When you were a kid, you ran so fast! With so many people attacking you, why didn't you run away? Maybe... that way you wouldn't have ended up like this today."

Looking back on the past, they had known each other for twelve years since they were six years old. During this period, the three of them had never been apart for a moment. However, fate played a trick on them. In just over a month, they were separated from each other forever.

At this moment, the breeze gently brushed their faces, as if they were also mourning and crying for this sincere friendship. Facing the place where their best friend rests forever, they have thousands of words in their hearts but don't know where to start. They can only stare at the cold stone tablet silently, express their grief and pray that the deceased rest in peace and the living will be strong and move forward......……

Shen Yu and Luo Xiangyun looked at Shen Congwen's tomb, Luo Xiangyun fainted from crying
