Volume 5 War and Peace Chapter 33 Talking about the heroes

Zhang Shilei was shocked and suddenly woke up: "Is there a war to fight?"

I said in that cold and nervous tone: "Yes."

"But... the veteran general Pu is still drunk!"

I smiled at him, "I know why I said I wanted to do something earth-shaking?"

Zhang Shilei shivered: "Young Master, don't harm us!"

"What trouble will happen to me!"

Zhang Shilei muttered, "I hear this. When we were young, we were a group of children and our sons from the village chief's family went to ring the bell at the entrance of the village. After that, he had nothing to do. We were beaten to death when we went home at night."

I glared at me and said, "If you want to go, go, and if you say nonsense, I will let you go home and become the village chief now!"

"Hey." Zhang Shilei hurried to work.

In ancient times, the orders for marching and fighting were all subject to various sound tools. What everyone is familiar with is to hear the drum and advance and retreat when they hear the gold. The Hong Lie army is similar. However, when gathering, the Niuke is used to summon soldiers, and the special drum sound represents the generals gathering. The five sparse and one secret drum sounds to ask all the generals to have a meeting in the commander's tent. Not long after Zhang Shilei went, the drum sounded, and the sound of "Tong, Tong, Tong" sounded throughout the city. Not long after, the nearby generals came to hear the sound, and the generals from other battalions rushed here. It took about half a stick of incense to collect all the generals in the big tent. I stood at the door and turned around to enter the tent when I saw that everyone had arrived.

The generals stood in two rows, but they didn't know what urgent things happened, because even when there was a war, it was not often used to gather the generals and drums. The commander ordered the troops and horses to dispatch them in a targeted manner. If everyone was summoned together, something would inevitably happen.

Amid the whispers of everyone, I walked straight to the patriotic case, and someone whispered: "Why haven't you seen the veteran general?"

I pressed down with both hands and said, "I will preside over this meeting. Do you have any objections?"

A few veteran generals relaxed when they heard this - I had guessed their thoughts. I was in charge of it. It would definitely not be military affairs. The mature and stern Puqixiong would not let a newcomer give orders. Perhaps it was an irrelevant pre-war mobilization. Someone laughed and said, "Is General Sword God going to tell us how to cultivate sword energy?" Others also responded and said, "It turned out to be a small kitchen for us. To be honest, we don't care about military pay and other things. The lowly ranks have long wanted to hear General Shi's cultivation experience." Speaking of this, the atmosphere became harmonious, and probably everyone had this idea in their hearts. The officers and soldiers of the left army are now consciously or unconsciously superior to each other in various armies, chasing the roots, all because of my sword god. Moreover, due to my relationship with Shi Cundao, the generals are very close to me, but no one is looking at me differently because of my young age.

But my next sentence shattered this kind of friendly and harmonious atmosphere:

"Early morning tomorrow or this morning, the Feifeng Army will launch an assault on the central part of Wusi. I want everyone to follow me out of the city to respond."

"Ah?" The generals were stunned by me. In extreme surprise, they fell into a brief silence. I was originally ready to face a storm, but I didn't expect this kind of reaction. I didn't know how to continue talking for a while, so the entire tent was looking at me and I looked at you, and no one spoke.

After a long time, a questioning voice came from some corner: "Isn't the action of Feifeng Army... not the day after tomorrow?"

I said: "This is the latest battle report, surely it is today!"

"Buzz--" People have just recovered and suddenly become in chaos. A group of generals in the front row have crossed the crowd, turned around and waved their hands to signal everyone to be quiet, then turned around and stared at me and said, "Where is the battle report?"

I spread my hands and said, "Oral battle report."

The man refused to give in and said, "So what is the source of the battle report?"

I said: "Nation of Women."

There was another riot among the generals, and the man said sly: "In other words, this battle report bypassed Marshal Shi and sent it directly to General Xiao Shi?"

I said, "That's right."

The man nodded and walked back to the queue without saying a word, then said lightly: "In this case, we may not be able to obey our will."

I looked at him and said, "Why?" At this time, I also remembered the name of this man. His name was Guo Dingyuan. He was the second-rank general Zhongyuan with the highest rank among the left army under Puqixiong and me. In fact, the second-in-commander of the left army. Puqixiong and I emphasized that if it were not for me this time, Guo Dingyuan would probably have been a left-front general smoothly by taking advantage of this Western Expedition. I can't call him a name among the generals here. Guo Dingyuan is a few exceptions, and it is not difficult for me to think of him from his position in the queue. Puqixiong said that this man led troops harshly and selflessly. He has made great achievements at the age of less than 50, and is also very good in the entire Honglie army.

He is prestigious, and he is a disciple of Shi Cundao. He has been under Shi Cundao since he was 16 years old. Over the years, he has been promoted quickly. Although it is inseparable from his personal talents, it is undeniable that Shi Cundao gave him his own show stage. Therefore, Guo Dingyuan was wholeheartedly loyal to Shi Cundao, and he pushed me to the left army to his position because of this - Shi Cundao regarded him as his direct line, so he was not worried that he was dissatisfied. But now it seems that this move was still wrong, at least for me. Now he came forward to challenge me. Guo Dingyuan has tough backstage and reasons for both public and private, which really gave me a headache.

Guo Dingyuan looked at me without showing any weakness and said, "This matter is of great importance. If you bypass the marshal and dispatch troops, the veteran General Pu has no right... Hum? Where is the veteran General Pu?" At the same time, the generals also thought of Puqixiong at this time. It would naturally be much simpler for him to make the problem, so they all looked around.

"General Pu is drunk and I have asked someone to arrange for him to rest."

"What?" The generals couldn't help but look at each other, unable to believe that Puqixiong had drunkenly and misled the matter at this moment.

I simply said, "I got him drunk."

"Uh..." The generals were speechless and couldn't help but focus their eyes on Guo Dingyuan.

Guo Dingyuan said: "What does General Xiao Shi mean?" When he said this, his tone gradually became stiff, showing an unconcealed stern look.

I pretended to be calm and said, "I know that the marshal gave a death order and did not allow one soldier to leave the city to meet Feifeng's army. I also know that the veteran General Pu would definitely not disobey the order and leave the city, so I got him drunk and saved the old general from being embarrassed."

Guo Dingyuan said coldly: "Then how do you know that we are willing to leave the city on the charge of disobeying military orders?"

"I will bear all the blame afterwards. Will this be possible?"

Guo Dingyuan shook his head and said, "I'm afraid you can't afford it."

"What if I have to send troops? Don't forget that I am the highest commander of the left army now!" Now, I can only use this last move. I have been showing off from the beginning because I understand that it is impossible to solve this problem by lying. There are too many loopholes and too smart opponents. Lies can only cover up the obvious.

Guo Dingyuan asked me without retreating at all, but said in an orderly manner: "First of all, there are the Marshal and the Senior General Pu who are higher than yours. Without the Marshal's knowledge, you got the Senior General Pu drunk. To be light, you said you were a trans-level army, and to be severe, you said you were a criminal offender. Of course, we have the right to disobey, and there is another question - why are you the only one who knows the latest battle report of the Kingdom of Women?"

I glanced at Guo Dingyuan and said, "Do you don't believe me?"

Guo Dingyuan paused and said, "This...of course not, but I'm afraid they just captured General Xiao Shi's mentality of rushing to make meritorious signs and encouraged them. They played such tricks at the beginning of our alliance. We must be careful. In short, General Xiao Shi has to insist on sending troops, and Guo is unable to obey. If other generals think, I can't control it."

Some of the generals nodded secretly and some seemed to be smiling, and some just pretended to be unrelated to them, but obviously Guo Dingyuan was their weather vane. Since he refused to obey, they were happy to get out of the matter. My plan to suppress people with military ranks failed without surprise. But I didn't expect that these guys would not give me any face, and they were just fighting against me in front of me. It seemed that there was still a gap between the kimono. As the Sword God, they obeyed me, but when it comes to war, these veterans did not treat me as a dish at all. Puqixiong said that they were little bastards. Lao Pu had been in the army for 50 years. These little bastards transformed into big-tailed wolf in front of me, all of whom were cunning.

I pressed my hands on the table, looked down and said helplessly and heavy: "I know what you are thinking - Stilzai, a kid who relied on the luck of a sword god hat falling from the sky and his grandfather was a marshal. He didn't know what he was. He was arrogant and arrogant, and he got into the condom set by his daughter country and didn't know that he could do anything. If he let him continue to make trouble, he would soon harm the country and the people. My image in your mind would probably have become the kind of playboy who was ignorant of the world."

No one spoke, so he gave me a default.

I said earnestly: "Actually, I have had contact with the people from the Kingdom of Women. They are not what everyone thinks. These women are still very good at fighting. And I can prove that they are sincere in their alliance with us. If we cannot cooperate sincerely at this time, it will not only hurt the friendship between the two countries, but also miss the opportunity to defeat Heigis..."

Guo Dingyuan interrupted me and said, "This is the problem. You said they are very sincere. We don't think so. What if the whole set set by Zhao Fanghua leads us out of the city?"

I said, "It is easy to determine the authenticity of this point. Feifeng Army wants to kill from Wu Sizhong. With your eyes, can't you tell whether they are really charging or playing?"

Guo Dingyuan said: "Even if it is true, it is the same for us to pick up Feifeng's army from the city to enter the city. Why do we have to leave the city?"

I said patiently: "It's just a simple task. Why should you let go of the generals? Are you scared by Hegis so you dare not leave the city?"

I thought that when this sentence was made, the people below would be excited, but this method of provoking was as effective as a mud bull entering the sea. Guo Dingyuan sneered: "All the people present are veterans who have experienced many battles. There is no need for General Xiao Shi to comment on this. We do not want to send troops but think this is strange, for fear that we will accidentally mislead the country of Hong Lie Empire."

I spread my hands and said, "Just you just believe me?"
