总结这场战争,前期陷入危机的大息王朝军队,几乎要被覆灭,后来的敌帅被杀失去指挥的巴图大军才开始衰退。
薛凌香的骑兵在战场突杀,因为巴图军队的混乱,大息王朝夺回少些优势。这一战,两边伤亡差距不多,说不上谁胜谁败。
不过,这也是开战以来,唯一没有让巴图军队讨到便宜的一场大战,顿时浩城喜庆一片,消息传回皇城,让人欢心鼓舞,朝也对此战表示赞赏。
战争结束,留下一片狼籍,死去的都已死去,活着的,黯然活着,等待着下一场战争的考验。这就是战争,一场人类的死亡游戏。
望着焦土一片,满山片野的尸体,薛凌香默然了,薛家军的军旗依然在风飘舞,远处的巴图蛮兵正悄然退去,不知道什么时候,他们依然会卷土重来,带来死亡。
何雅蕊黯然地道:“依然没有找到!”
薛凌香闭上眼睛道:“先回城吧,稍后打扫战场的人会带来消息!”
这个意思,恐怕不是太好的含意,带回来的,也不会是好消息。
队伍,正在慢慢退去,带着伤痛,带着死去弟兄的哀悼。
城有的部队,都已回到城,薛凌香与何雅蕊都已经卸掉战甲,将军府一片喜庆,虽然没有得到胜利,却是让人高兴之事。
皇城那边的消息也传过来,要对此战大功者重重嘉奖。力度空前巨大。带领薛家军的齐少锦即要升为二品正将,薛凌香在军挂职,现在也升到二品。
薛将军已是正一品,功劳巨大,只有外加太保头衔领侍卫内大臣,重金封赏。各个部队的领队,都已升职升奉禄。
但是这一切高兴的事,对薛凌香与何雅蕊来说,都是浮云。
她们宁静地走在浩城空荡的街道,虽然城里四处欢喜气氛。却依然空无人烟让人感觉到荒凉。夕阳已经落下。示着这杀戳的结束。
微风轻拂,让人享受着这战后的平和,让人从危机四伏的杀场月兑离,来到另一个世界。没有危险。没有心惊。只有哀伤。
“我爹,怕是要忙碌了!”何雅蕊淡淡地笑道,夕阳下。她的笑容很美,甜甜的,带着一点苦涩的味道。
“是啊,很多人升职,何尚书有得要忙!”薛凌香也淡淡地笑,两个似乎有意不想提起那不好的事情。
“也恭喜凌香你升二品了,学院最高军职的学生了罢!”
“那里有什么好喜的,职位对我来说,不过是个称号,没有任何意义,不管是什么职位,薛家军总是我所带领,职位再高,也还是带领薛家军!”
“真羡慕你可以领军冲锋陷阵,立下功勋,真想以后都跟随着你在战场杀敌!”
“那有什么不行,可惜你不会骑马!”薛凌香发现自己不小心担到个不该提的事,她抱歉地道:“对不起!”
何雅蕊她淡淡地道:“没关系,那些事情,我已经在逐渐适应,慢慢淡忘!”
“看起来,你已经好了很多,关于元青的事情,过去的都已经过去,不必再牵怀!”
“我知道,我会自己走出来的,你不用太担心!”
薛凌香点点头,这个时候,两个人不知不觉,已经来到广场,这是她们两个人之前来到的广场,这里依然是那些难民。
不觉又来到这里,两人默不作声,望着一片惨迹的广场。
她们步入广场之,情况远远没有改善,从前天就已经缺粮,这过了两天,依然没有粮食,难民不知还能熬多久。
夕阳如血一样照落在这广场,将这惨不忍睹的一面印射出来,那一张张饥饿的脸,
这是喜庆的浩城一片悲伤之地,小女孩偎依在奄奄一息的母亲怀,恐怕再过不了多时,就要面对一些不忍睹视的事情。
薛凌香双拳紧握,她看不下去,她真的看不下去。
这时的难民见到何雅蕊和薛凌香的到来,像是看到什么希望,模索着过来,这时的小女孩过来抱住何雅蕊的腿,哭喊道:“大姐姐,救救我妈妈,救救我妈妈!”
何雅蕊两眼冒出眼泪,像又是看到当年的那一幕幕,当年她无力挽回,而今天,她依然无法挽回,为什么生命要出现两回这样的痛苦,让她只能这样眼睁睁的看着,让心像刀割一样的巨疼。
她救不了,她救不了这千千万万的难民,她紧咬着下唇,她无助地想向上天痛哭。
她不想这样覆灭小女孩的希望,但是她无能为力,她的脑海那往昔的一幕幕,元青去世的消息,她手里拿着城外难民死亡人数的报告书,旧伤新痛漫漫袭来
她蹲抱住小女孩瘦弱的身躯,眼泪止不住的落下,她梗咽地道:“对不起……姐姐……姐姐帮不了!”
说出这句话的时候,就像撕裂她的心,那是巨浪一般的悲痛。薛凌香也紧咬牙关,禁不住落泪。
“粮食!回来了!”
这是身后传来的一个熟悉声音,这个声音传入心,如同洪钟,震人心弦。
两女回望,那只广场口一个巨大魏峨的身躯,在背后的夕阳将这身影足足拉长,她们在正对的阳光下无法看清面容,只知道那夕阳为背的身影神象一样的金闪。
正对夕阳刺眼下的景象模模糊糊,隐约见着那烂光里的粮车在徐徐推运。
猛然间,无数辆粮车推进广场,那上面都是大袋大袋的粮食,破落的袋还在哗哗地流落白花花的米粒。
薛凌香与何雅蕊茫然地徐徐站起身来,与那夕阳下的人形对视而立,在这一刻的夕阳落下山间,那张面容逐渐显露出来。
“傅!小!蛙!”
两女同时月兑口而出。
(我觉得这章可以无耻地要10000币打赏。)
