"Damn it! This bastard!" Ye Shiheng was furious and rarely swore.
Mo Zangyun was so bold and presumptuous that he openly violated the agreement between the two countries!
The massacre of the people of the Song Dynasty is an atrocity that is simply outrageous!
Ye Shiheng immediately ordered the three brothers Ye Yunlu and Ye Zelin to lead their troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion in Wulitun.
"Yes!" The three brothers clasped their fists and accepted the order, then turned around and led a group of people to rush towards Wulitun.
At this time, the battle in Wulitun was extremely fierce.
"You damn bastards! You killed my people, and I'll make sure you never come back!"
General Liang Shi's eyes were bloodshot and the weapon in his hand was covered in blood as he was chasing after several Western Xia soldiers.
The three brothers Ye Zelin divided their troops into three groups and encircled and suppressed the Western Xia soldiers from three directions.
The two armies fought for nearly two hours before the winner was decided.
General Liang Shi killed Mei Zangyun with an axe.
Most of the Western Xia soldiers died, and only a small number threw down their armor and surrendered.
Some civilians looked at the surrendering Xixia soldiers and rushed forward with kitchen knives, but were stopped by Ye Zelin, "Fellow villagers, we cannot kill prisoners of war."
The people glared at the Xixia soldiers with tears in their eyes, "General, I know you have military regulations to follow, but I don't! Those Xixia bastards killed our parents, brothers and sisters! I want revenge for them!"
The man waved his hand, and Ye Zelin had no time to grab the kitchen knife. The knife had already flown out and hit a Xixia soldier.
A few days later, Mi Qindong Jin personally led the army to attack Yumen Pass and the three small checkpoints of Pingqin Pass, Dasan Pass and Qiaozhen in four directions.
Ye Zelin and General Liang Shi stayed behind to guard Yumen Pass to resist the army led by Mi Qindong Jin.
Ye Yunlu set up defenses at Dasan Pass, preparing to strike hard at the Western Xia soldiers.
Deputy General Jin and others led their troops in a fierce battle with the Western Xia army in Qiaozhen.
Pingqin Pass was originally occupied by Mo Zangyun, but was recaptured after several fierce battles led by Ye Yunlu. The Western Xia army attacked Pingqin Pass again, and Ye Shiheng and his son Ye Songyan led their troops to fight the enemy.
The horse is as fast as Lu, the bow is as loud as thunder, and the battle is extremely fierce.
The arrow came hurtling towards him like lightning. Ye Songyan was about to swing his spear to block it, but it was too late. At that critical moment, the arrow was swept away by Ye Shiheng's spear.
However, the arrows were overwhelming and continuous. Several soldiers stood in front of Ye Shiheng and Ye Songyan without hesitation, using their bodies as shields to block the arrows.
"General, hurry up! General, hurry up!" A soldier who was hit by several arrows shouted at Ye Shiheng at the top of his lungs.
After saying this, the soldier fell down.
At this moment, an extremely sharp arrow flew straight towards Ye Songyan. Ye Shiheng subconsciously pushed his son away, and the arrowhead penetrated his chest, and blood instantly dyed his clothes red.
Ye Songyan exclaimed: "Dad!"
......
Ye Songyan carefully helped Ye Shiheng sit down, and Ye Shiheng's body leaned tightly against a huge rock.
Ye Shiheng tightly grasped Ye Songyan's hands, which were stained with blood. He asked anxiously, "Yan'er, do you hate your father?"
Ye Songyan shook his head vigorously, "No, Yan'er has never hated Dad."
"Dad, don't say anymore. I'll take you back to the barracks and we'll go find my sister-in-law. She will definitely be able to save you." Ye Songyan sobbed, his voice choked.
Ye Shiheng stretched out his hand to stop his son, "It's too late, Dad is almost dying. There are some things Dad must tell you, you must listen carefully and remember them firmly."
Ye Songyan burst into tears, "Daddy, please tell me."
"Do you know why Dad told you that eggs were not tasty when you were little? It was because Dad knew you would be allergic to eggs, so Dad said that on purpose."
Ye Songyan was puzzled, "Dad, what do you mean by that?"
"Both of your brothers are allergic to eggs. How could you not be allergic?"
Ye Shiheng stared at his youngest son and said slowly, "Yan'er, you are Rongyue and I's biological son."
Ye Songyan looked at Ye Shiheng in astonishment, "What? What did you say?"
"You are indeed the biological child of Rongyue and me. Feiqiong's child died shortly after birth. It was Dad who swapped your child with Feiqiong's. The child who died that year was not Rongyue's child, but Feiqiong's child."
Ye Shiheng slowly closed his eyes, feeling relieved. This matter had been hidden in his heart for twenty years.
"Impossible? No way?" Ye Songyan's face was full of disbelief.
"It's true." Ye Shiheng looked at Ye Songyan, his voice full of guilt.
"You lied to me! This is not true! There is no way I am not my mother's child?" Ye Songyan looked at Ye Shiheng, his head splitting as if it was about to explode.
"Yan'er, you are truly Rongyue's biological child. Your real name is Yuning, which was given to you by Rongyue. She hoped you would have a peaceful life, so she named you Yuning."
Ye Shiheng raised his blood-stained hand and gently stroked his youngest son's handsome face, his eyes full of pity, "Your eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Rongyue."
"I'm sorry, Yan'er." Ye Shiheng said softly.
Ye Songyan asked, "You said I was my mother's child, so why did you swap my child with my mother's?"
"because……"
Ye Shiheng hesitated to speak.
Back then, his father Ye Changting strongly opposed him marrying Ouyang Rongyue, but he insisted on marrying Ouyang Rongyue. Even when he went to propose in person, he was forcibly pulled back by his father.
If Rongyue had not had Yunlu, his father would have been worried about the family scandal being exposed and would never have agreed to this marriage.
After marriage, he was away from home for many years, spending very little time at home, and even less time with Rongyue. His father was already dissatisfied with Rongyue as his daughter-in-law, and when he was not at home, his father was even more picky about Rongyue. He even treated the child Rongyue gave birth to with a cold eye.
His father had been forcing him to marry Xu Feiqiong, but he disagreed and argued with his father countless times, which became known to everyone in the city. Even the Censorate impeached him for being disobedient and unfilial, and the emperor summoned him into the palace and gave him a severe scolding.
Rongyue even said that she didn't want to see him turn against his father because of her, and begged him to marry Xu Feiqiong.
He finally compromised and married Xu Feiqiong.
Perhaps he was worried that his father would treat the child badly, or perhaps he was worried that Xu Feiqiong would go crazy and do something detrimental to them, so he made the last mistake of his life...
In fact, when it comes down to it, it is his cowardice and incompetence that has led to the current situation. Why didn't he persevere to the end when he rose up in resistance?
"Because I'm a coward..." This was the only answer Ye Shiheng could give to Ye Songyan.
"I'm sorry, Yuning." He owed his son an apology.
With reluctance in his eyes, his hands slowly dropped.
On this day, Ye Shiheng passed away, marking the end of a great general's life. Sacrificing his life for the country was his greatest honor.
Ye Songyan carried Ye Shiheng on his back and walked towards Yumen Pass step by step. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he saw a group of armored soldiers from afar. The general leading them was wearing silver armor.
"Second brother."
