Chapter 658 Courage
The wind blows over the dry fields. Bookmark this site
The warm air and gravel make people feel dry and their throats. The dust rose and rolled under the movement of horse hooves. The Xianbei and Xiongnu two 10,000 cavalry spread out from side to side and slowly moved forward with more than a thousand tiger and leopard cavalry in the middle. The scouts coming and going around ordered the cavalry to constantly issue orders to coordinate the advancement speed of a large array. The wolf king, who was in the front, looked at the gradually clear Roman army formation in front, squinted his eyes, and a cavalry of dozens of people rushed out of the array and came toward this side. Then, they stopped three hundred feet away, and a childish voice suddenly sounded in surprise.
The child's little body was raised in the air.
"Dear Commander Selius, the commander of the Roman King's Guards, the commander of the Roman King's Flag, the Sasselius, please come out and see you. There is one thing that may be of interest to you."
Among dozens of riders, wearing half a side cover, red, muscular half-body armor, and white shorts on the lower body, Cesalius, who was already forty-two, looked up at the child with his arms raised. Regardless of the other party's struggle, he grinned and continued to shout loudly: "...... This Germanic child in my hand is not a pure-blood German, but a bastard with a lowly life. In the eyes of the Romans, he is not worth a Dinner... But he is very valuable now..."
The sky was setting in the west, and the loud and unrestrained sound echoed on the field. The sound of horse hooves also quieted down at this moment, as if even time was stopping for a moment.
The horses' hooves that moved forward stopped, and the horse's heads were squirting uneasy in the atmosphere, shaking their mane. Many people might not understand what the other person was saying, but the tone and the children raised in the other person's hands could see a clue. The low-pitched communication flowed from among them, and they clamped the spears one by one.
In front of the tiger and leopard cavalry, the warm evening breeze rustled by, and the wolf velvet was stroking on the collar armor. Gongsun Zhi frowned very tightly. In the distance of his sight, the struggling figure screamed and waved his hands and feet, occasionally turning his little face, his eyes seemed to be looking at him...
"Lord, I'll kill the Qin people." Dian Wei pulled out his halberds, his eyes flashed with terrifying ferocity, and his teeth grinded: "What's the point of bullying a child?!"
The words continued, Markuus, who was on the Han Dynasty, ran up. Gongsun Zhi glanced at him and squeezed out cold words: "Translation word-for-word!" Over there, Markuus swallowed his spit and carefully translated the original words.
"................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Under the wolf flag, Gongsun Zhi looked at the child in the air without any expression on his face, closed his eyes slightly without making a sound, but the muscles in the corners of his eyes trembled slightly, and his cheeks swelled. From a distance, the tiger, leopard, wolf, and several generals who heard Markuus's translation of the words nearby pinched their weapons, and the fierce aura gradually dissipated on them.
"These Qin people are so bored!" Zhang Fei gritted his teeth in anger, took two steps back and forth with the war horse, raised his snake spear and roared: "Governor Gongsun, let me, Lao Zhang, go and poke him to death with a spear."
"Shut up and go and die alone..." Before Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, Gongsun Zhi raised his hand and asked them to stop, and opened his lips: "Go with me."
Zhang Fei pushed Xiahou Yuan's hand away and laughed: "I will accompany the governor. If the Qin people are not honest, they will kill them with a spear." In addition to the forty guard wolf cavalry with two scimitars, there are also two generals Dian Wei and Li Ke. Xiahou Yuan turned around and glared at Cao Chun who was carrying a sword on his horse and said: "Zihe stays, your injury has not healed, don't cause trouble, follow me to rush over to the formation." After that, he took out the longbow and slapped the horse and chased him.
...
In the distance, a touch of red was running towards the confrontational army. A strand of hair stretched out from its temples was sweeping in the wind. A surging torrent was sweeping south alongside him.
"I hope it's time..." Lu Bu thought, and then there was a loud shout of "Harry!", the red rabbit horse neighed violently, and the tumbling horse hooves accelerated again, and a long smoke and dust raised like lightning, crossing the rolling wave of people, galloping forward.
....
The wind blew across the field and rolled up sand and dust.
Two hundred feet.
Sesarius put down his raised arms and placed the child in front of him. He looked at the opposite side with a bigger smile. The sound of horse hooves stopped in front of him with a rumbling roar. More than 40 Sesarius cavalrymen tightened the reins and raised their weapons, lined up their lines, and their eyes showed a fierce look.
Then, several cavalry slowly came up from behind with different weapons, but Cesalius had never seen the commander before, so he asked: "You are the commander of the Eastern Legion? You are so young." When Li Ke held the mace and snorted, the other party was still moved by sighing. The war has been fought to this day, which is the most difficult battle he has ever fought in his life. The tactics used by the other party and the qualities of the soldiers of Cesalius are unforgettable.
As the questioning sounded, several generals in armor moved left and right, and then a black war horse carried a white wolf velvet black armor, and a knight with two blades on his waist walked out, and a horse head protruded with the cavalry.
The horse's hooves kicked off the fine rocks and stopped. In the sky, Gongsun Zhi's eyes were on the face of the child in front of the Roman general. The little boy with golden hair was sitting there in a daze. Obviously, the previous shock had not passed, but he just looked at the black-haired man opposite him with timid eyes, with his eyes a little wet and red.
"He... is Dimat's father..." The thin little mouth moved and finally spoke a voice that only he could hear.
On the boy's head, Cesarius looked at the opposite side and smiled. When he saw a Roman beside the man, he probably understood what the other party did and said to Marcus: "You are not worthy of being a Roman, but you can tell the words to this Oriental Commander." He stretched out his hand and hugged the boy in front of him: "Your Excellency Commander, are you willing to accept what I said before? Your son... looks so handsome..."
"Your name is Dimat, can you speak Chinese and ancient Chinese?"
When Cesalius spoke, Gongsun Zhi's voice also sounded at the same time. He didn't listen to the words of the Roman general. He just looked at the child opposite him and felt a little emotional in his eyes. This was the first time he had seen this son in several years. If it weren't for Stephanie's letter, he wouldn't have known that although he understood the woman's plan, he was also implicated by the other party.
"Can you say... Mother taught me... Are you my father?" Dimat pursed his lips tightly and asked for words to confirm. His tone was slightly choked, and he tried hard to suppress it in his throat. When he saw the tall figure on the opposite side, his tears slid down, and the choked voice became louder and louder, and he cried out in a sob: "Mother didn't lie to me... Dimat has a father..."
"Master Commander, have you listened to me..." Thessalius's voice sounded opposite.
Gongsun Zhi was silent on the horse's back and slowly spoke: "Dimat... Men cannot cry easily, that is a manifestation of cowardice. Your mother wrote to me and said that your name symbolizes courage and prestige. See if you look like a girl now."
"Well, Dimatt won't cry." The boy bit his lips tightly, raised the back of his hand to wipe the wet marks on his face, and tried hard to lift his small chin and straighten his spine.
"Your Excellency Commander, are you listening...what are you talking about?"
The voice sounded again, and Gongsun Zhi still looked at his son opposite him and nodded with a smile: "That's right, half of your body is my Han blood, and my Gongsun stops bleeding... So son, are you afraid of death?" He slowly raised his hand and held the bow behind his waist.
The boy hesitated for a moment and shook his blonde hair.
"This is my son." Gongsun Zhi drew out the longbow and pulled out an arrow and hit it. Xiahou Yuan, Li Ke, Zhang Fei and others around him were shocked, "Chief! What are you doing..."
The opposite Sesarius was also startled by this action, pinched Dimat's back neck, lifted him up, and blocked him: "Master Commander, do you want your son?" Dozens of nearby guards raised their shields nervously and held the javelin in the side bag of the horse.
At the same time, a voice from the side shouted out: "Wen Hou is here."
The arm that raised the bow stopped, Gongsun Zhi's eyes were slightly slanted. In the dim sky, the red rabbit horse rushed here from the side and behind the Xianbei people. When he saw this picture, he knew what was going on. With a loud bang, he inserted the halberd into the mud. Before the people around him could react, even Gongsun Zhi heard the sound and roar shaking everyone's eardrums: "Who gave you the courage to stand so close to a certain family!"
He reached out and grabbed the bow and arrow, opened his arms sideways, and pulled the bow in one go. In the air, the string sounded loudly, and a black shadow broke through the air and flew out.
Dimat closed his eyes tightly and shrank his neck. When the sound exploded, he heard a "puff" sound coming from his ears. A warm liquid dripped on his hair, and more of it was flowing into his ears, cheeks, and back of his neck suddenly loosened, he opened his eyes slightly and looked up.
An arrow penetrated into the right socket of Cesarius. The moment the shaking body fell from the horse's back, dozens of Roman cavalry around him reacted from what happened in the flash. While throwing the javelin at the opposite side, he quickly rode his horse to grab the boy on the horse's back.
Before he got close, a few more arrows flew over and nailed them. Xiahou Yuan lowered his bow and glanced at Lu Bu over there: "...Wen Hou is not the only one who can shoot arrows." Forty guard wolf cavalry swung scimitars and spread across from him. Zhang Fei roared with a spear and rushed to the front.
On the side of Lu Bu, he pulled Gongsun Zhi who was about to rush out and lowered his voice: "Just have them, let the team hide..."
"Hmm?" Gongsun Zhi looked at him.
