When the sky was slightly bright, someone came back in panic to report the news.
"Old General, something bad has happened! The three generals failed to attack the enemy camp at night. General Li was beheaded on the spot, General Chen was arrested, and only General Qian escaped, but he was also seriously injured. Life and death are unpredictable!"
The people who came in to report were rolling around and looking very embarrassed, with panic written on their faces.
Originally, they thought that if the three generals took action, there would definitely be good news, but who knew it would be so miserable.
After hearing this, the old general grew older instantly.
Playing a good chess game poorly was the biggest failure of his life.
Just as he was talking, someone came to report: "General, Lu Baichuan has brought people to shout and provoke again!"
In fact, the old general could hear the North without reporting. Yan Ren laughed arrogantly.
They looked like they had defeated the four generals, and they could not fight today no matter what.
Now I am hoping that the people who go to pull food will bring good news.
"General, please think of a way!"
The men were anxious. They also knew that they were careless and did not listen to the old general's words, which led to a big mistake, but Now that the matter has come to this, we still need to ask the old general to come forward and resolve it.
After a long time, the old general stood up and said: "Come with me out and take a look."
Outside, the unpleasant words spoken by Beiyan soldiers came in more and more clearly. Hearing this, the old general's face turned dark.
But looking at the high-spirited Beiyan people, and then looking at the faces of the bitter and resentful people in his own army, the old general felt a sense of powerlessness coming over him.
This battle will eventually be lost.
But even so, he couldn't let the Beiyan people win too happily.
"Boy, don't be arrogant, I will take care of you myself!"
The old general spoke, asked his men to get his weapons, and rushed out single-handedly.
The people of Dongting are worried. It is undeniable that all their hopes now lie in the old general.
Lu Baichuan knew that this old general was very famous. He was a bandit when he was young, and he relied on his skills to get where he is today.
Lu Baichuan was still a little regretful that he had never had the chance to face off against each other before. Today, he was finally able to face off, and he was a little excited.
Then, as he got closer, he saw the dark eyes of the old general and frowned.
Originally, he had an advantage because of his age. The old general obviously hadn’t slept all night and was not in good condition at all, let alone fight with him.Isn't this obviously bullying?
So, he pulled the reins and said: "Old general, please come back, I won't fight you."
Everyone was stunned and didn't understand what this meant.
He clasped his fists at the old general and said: "The younger generation has long heard of the old general's reputation and has always wanted to compete with the old general. But today it seems that the old general is unwell and the younger generation does not want to take advantage of the general. Let’s make an appointment another day.”
After saying that, he turned his horse around and went back.
The old general was stunned. Lu Baichuan's short words made him feel a little admiration in his heart.
This young man has always been capable. He had investigated him before the war started, and he had always been very afraid of him and did not dare to do anything wrong.
Facts have proved that my decision was right, otherwise I would not have lost four generals.
The old general raised the sword in his hand and felt his arms trembling slightly.
He is really old, and he can’t stand it even before the fight.
He did not want to save face and said: "In three days, I will have a good fight with you!"
In three days, the people transporting food should be able to arrive.
I thought Lu Baichuan would not agree, but he was very talkative and agreed immediately.
Just when the old general felt lucky, Lu Baichuan said casually: "I hope that in three days the old general can solve the urgent problem and have a good fight with me."
Everyone in Dongting was a little confused. What is the urgent need?
What about the four generals?
On the battlefield, life and death depend on fate. How can this be solved?
Anyway, as long as the coach is still alive, there is no urgent need.
The soldiers didn’t take it seriously, and the old general’s face turned dark instantly.
He went back without saying anything, and that night, news spread quietly that the army had insufficient food reserves.
There was an explosion in the army. The old general was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He was deceived by the boy's upright look!
After he was angry, he smiled for no reason and said with emotion: "The descendants are terrible!"
The smile soon dimmed again, because this descendant was not their Dongting.
This means that he will soon be unable to hold the border.
News of the food shortage spread, and the army was completely in chaos. The old general lost a lot of hair because of this, and he looked forward to good news from the people who were transporting food every day.
The opposite isHere in Beiyan, the Chinese New Year is only half a month away. This is the first time Jiang Jiuniang and Gouer have celebrated the Chinese New Year at the border. Although they cannot be reunited with their families, they still have to live a lively time.
Jiang Jiuniang did not take the war seriously. She did her own thing every day, teaching Peng Yuan medical skills, conducting free clinics in the city, and going to the workshop to check on the work progress. She lived a very fulfilling life.
With her help, the people on the border were able to have a good New Year after experiencing a disaster. It was not easy. The city was very lively and filled with all kinds of New Year goods. The streets and alleys have been the busiest in the past ten years.
In fact, the soldiers on the border felt that it was best for Lu Baichuan to directly capture the old general Dongting that day. They attacked at the same time, and now they have won more than half.
But Lu Baichuan did not take action, and made an appointment for three days later. By then, the opponent would have support, and their difficulty would increase again.
However, they had no complaints. They felt that the general had his own reasons for whatever decision he made. Anyway, the general would definitely lead them to victory.
So, while the people of Dongting were panicking and in chaos, the army in Beiyan enjoyed spicy food, sang and danced every day, and lived a happy time in the army.
Three days later, Lu Baichuan brought people to the door again and found that the morale of the other party was almost gone. The guards began to tremble when they saw them. More importantly, they were all listless, with yellow faces and thin muscles. Obviously not full.
This time, the old general did not rush out alone, but brought people, many people.
Compared to Lu Baichuan, who only led a team of a thousand people, this time the old general was somewhat ungrateful in military ethics.
But on the battlefield, it is important that a soldier never tires of deceit, no matter what means he uses, as long as he can win.
Lu Baichuan was not in a hurry when he saw this. He just smiled and said to the old general: "It seems that the general's urgent need has not been solved. It is really regrettable."
He said , and shook his head regretfully, making the Dongting people so angry that their teeth itched.
"I have been fighting on the battlefield all my life, but in the end I will be so embarrassed by a young man like you. This is something I never expected. But we Dongting people are not easy to bully. It is not certain who will lose and who will win!"
The old general had no intention of fighting Lu Baichuan alone. He was the commander-in-chief, and nothing could happen again, otherwise the army would be completely in chaos.
Today, he was going to take advantage of the large number of people on his side to arrest Lu Baichuan and force Beiyan to retreat.
