Wu Zheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to speak, when a group of people came from the direction of the south gate.

The first was Zhang Guowei.

Although Wu Zheng had learned the news from Chi Erhan that Zhang Guowei was not dead and still alive, the shock in his heart was huge when he really saw a person who had been dead for a year appearing alive in front of him.

It wasn't until Zhang Guowei came to the front and patted Wu Zheng's shoulder that Wu Zheng reacted.

Zhang Gong...... Belch! Wu Zheng didn't know what to say, but he grabbed Zhang Guowei's hand with both hands, and the excitement in his heart made Wu Zheng incoherent.

The news of Zhang Guowei's martyrdom in Yiting made Wu Zheng very guilty, in fact, he had the spare strength to return to Shaoxing Mansion at that time, but he was not a saint, he had his own interests.

Now that he Zhang Guowei is standing in front of him alive, how can Wu Zheng not be excited?

Zhang Guowei smiled and looked at the scene in front of him, and then said to Wu Zheng, "Solve the current matter first, and then talk about my affairs slowly." ”

Zhang Guowei bypassed Wu Zheng, came to Fang Guoan, examined Fang Guoan's injury, and said calmly: "I am very happy that you can get lost." You did a good job in today's battle, and the soldiers were brave ....... ”

His eloquent words caused Fang Guoan to cry bitterly, and also caused the soldiers behind Fang Guoan to cry. Fang Guoan grabbed Zhang Guowei's hand with his right hand and choked up: "You are alive...... I am so happy...... I'm so glad you know, I've been blaming myself for killing you all these days. ”

Zhang Guowei said softly: "Nonsense, I committed suicide by throwing myself into the lake in defeat that day, what does it have to do with you?" ”

Fang Guoan cried: "If I hadn't surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing army would not have been able to move south smoothly ......." ”

"Don't talk about it." Zhang Guowei stopped, "Look, aren't I alive and well now?" At this point, the battle of Shaoxing Mansion has been decided, and your department needs to rest, and after I discuss with the Zhenguo Gong, withdraw to the Three Realms first. ”

Fang Guoan nodded vigorously.

……。

That night, Wu Zheng and Zhang Guowei talked under the moon.

"Wu Zheng, you have been doing well, even more than I imagined, speaking from the heart, I am very envious, envy that you have nothing to worry about." Zhang Guowei looked up at the starry sky and said slowly, "Do you know, the moment I jumped from the city, I felt very relaxed, and I was relaxed that I didn't need to worry about the world anymore." ”

"This kind of worry and worry makes me very painful, seeing the Ming Dynasty lose hope step by step, knowing where the shortcomings are, but powerless to change, this pain can swallow people's hearts. But you are different, you are young and energetic, without any fetters, you can do whatever you want, and you really have to do it, which makes me envious. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Guowei turned around and looked at Wu Zheng quietly, "But you can't go far, but you forget why you set off." On that day, you said in a humble house, you want to expel the Tartars and restore my Ming Dynasty, does it still count? ”

Wu Zheng nodded and said, "Naturally, it's a number." ”

Zhang Guowei nodded and said, "That's good." I can't teach you, I can't do what you've done or what you're doing, but I can help you achieve that ambition...... But you also have to promise me not to deviate from our common aspirations, and from the countless righteous and virtuous people who have sacrificed their lives for them. ”

Wu Zheng said solemnly: "Wu Zheng remember. ”

Zhang Guowei softened his face at this time, "Fang Guoan is just confused for a while, at least he doesn't have too much blood on his hands, at this point, his sin is far lighter than that of many generals." Wu Zheng, you also said that in order to realize the ambition of resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty in your heart, you need to unite all those who can be united, isn't Fang Guoan among them? You can accept people like Ma Shiying, why do you want to be unforgiving to the other party's national security? ”

Wu Zheng argued: "Zhang Gong misunderstood, Wu Zheng did not mean to refuse Fang Guoan, and even had a trace of apology in his heart for the huge casualties of the State Security Department of the warring side, but such a sacrifice is not only the Fang State Security Department, but all the people under my command are fighting so bloodily, especially the Zhou Dahu Department, in the first battle of Guali, there are only 2,000 people left of 5,000 people. If the other side's Ministry of State Security treats the other side differently on this basis, how can we deal with the rest of the officers and soldiers who are loyal to the country? ”

Zhang Guowei nodded and sighed lightly: "This is also true, but what Fang Guoan may need is not a reward, but just an affirmation of their sacrifice today as a coach." ”

Wu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Don't worry, Gong Zhang, I don't have any intention of not being forgiving Fang Guoan." ”

Zhang Guowei said: "That's how it should be, this world is not a person or a group of people can recover, we need more people to join, and we will join in the great cause, there are many people who will descend to the Qing Dynasty, Wu Zheng, you can't cut off the road to the return of these Qing generals because of one person." If there is a fire fight today, Fang Guoan's life and death are small, but it can be spread out, who else dares to return to our dynasty? This is tantamount to an enemy. ”

Wu Zheng understood, and responded: "What Zhang Gong said is true, Wu Zheng is reckless. ”

Zhang Guowei stopped and smiled, "Why, don't you want to hear how I escaped death that day?" ”

Wu Zheng also laughed, "I was about to ask, but wasn't Zhang Gong reprimanding Wu Zheng?" ”

Zhang Guowei scolded with a smile: "How can you reprimand? Just to remind you. ”

Then Zhang Guowei talked about his escape from death.

On that day, Zhang Guowei was besieged, resolutely jumped off the city wall, fell into the White Horse Lake, because the place where he fell into the water was not deep, Zhang Guowei did not drown, but unfortunately was broken by the stone in the lake and broke his leg, and fainted in pain.

After fainting, there was less movement, which made Duoduo think that Zhang Guowei had sunk into the lake and drowned.

But Zhang Guowei drifted into the distance with the undercurrent, Baima Lake had many bends, and Zhang Guowei, who was drowning, was rescued by fishermen fishing in the lake, and woke up after being in a coma for many days.

At that time, the Qing army had occupied most of the counties and towns in Shaoxing, and the imperial court withdrew to Pinggang Cottage, and there was no possibility of contacting the Ming army at all.

In addition, it takes time for a broken leg to heal, and Zhang Guowei has a strong tiredness in his heart.

He stayed in that small fishing village to recuperate.

After that, it was Wu Zhengguang who recovered Jiufu, and the imperial court returned to Nanjing.

Zhang Guowei heard that he wanted to leave the small fishing village and return to the imperial court, but the civil strife that occurred in Tianfu disappointed Zhang Guowei again and dispelled the idea of making a comeback.

I wanted to stay incognito in a small fishing village from now on and spend this troubled world, but at this time a tragedy happened.

Zhang Guowei said with tears in his eyes and an angry expression: "Just to grab a few chickens, ducks, and livestock, the Tartars slaughtered the entire fishing village because of this, seventy-nine people!" If I hadn't followed the old fisherman to fish in the lake, I am afraid that I would have been doomed. ”

Wu Zheng nodded in response: "The Tartars are ferocious and known to the world. ”
