"My lord, my lord, it's not good, it's not good..."
Lin Hongzhuang ran and shouted, and soon he came to Li Siyuan. He was out of breath and panted, "Sir...sir, it's not good..."
"What's wrong? Did you find someone from Tujiapu?"
Recalling the bursts of screams that had just sounded in the mountains, Li Siyuan felt something in his heart. He pulled Lin Hongzhuang's hand, feeling a vague premonition that something had happened.
"Speak quickly! What happened?"
Lin Hongzhuang kept pointing his hands, "Sir... Tu... Tujia Fort, the people from Tujia Fort are here... Our vanguard army has all been killed."
Li Siyuan stared blankly, "What did you say?"
"Are you telling the truth?"
Lin Hongzhuang nodded heavily, "Sir, Gan Jitong saw it with his own eyes. The mountain... was full of corpses of soldiers, covered with bows and arrows. It was too horrible to see."
Terrified, Li Siyuan murmured to himself, "This...how is this possible, how is this possible..."
Then he stared at Lin Hongzhuang and asked loudly, "Didn't you just say that there are no traces of Tujiapu people within a few miles? What is going on now? Why do Tujiapu people appear here? Tell me, you say it?
?”
Hearing that the 1,500-strong vanguard army had been wiped out, Li Siyuan was in disarray and only focused on questioning Lin Hongzhuang, not thinking about how to deal with the current situation.
Li Siyuan's question made Lin Hongzhuang at a loss, with a look of horror on his face, and he said incomparably, "Sir... Sir, this... you can't blame me, it's them... Tujiapu is so despicable and shameless that they actually put leaves... weeds on their bodies, and then hid them on the ground, or...
Behind the tree, our people didn't notice it at all."
Li Siyuan didn't care and cursed loudly, "You... didn't find it, and you actually said you didn't find it. Are you a waste?"
Gan Jitong suddenly interrupted, "Sir, the top priority is how to deal with the current situation. You must not mess up your position."
While saying this, Gan Jitong kept looking around, fearing that the enemy would make some move.
Li Siyuan immediately agreed, "Yes, yes, Gan Qianhu is right. How should we deal with it now? Come on, Gan Qianhu, tell us, what should we do?"
Gan Jitong was stunned and looked at Li Siyuan in astonishment. He thought about it, but he didn't expect that as a general, Li Siyuan would ask him what to do?
But Li Siyuan looked at him expectantly, and Gan Jitong could only come up with a compromise, "Sir, why don't we let the army retreat first, and it's not too late to make plans after we have a clear understanding of the enemy's situation..."
Li Siyuan heard this and decisively refused, "No, we can't retreat!"
"this…"
Gan Jitong showed doubts.
In the current situation, no matter what happens, Li Siyuan cannot agree to withdraw his troops. Otherwise, if he returns after being defeated, what will others think of him?
This is why Li Siyuan insisted that he could not retreat.
But is it really okay not to retreat?
Lin Hongzhuang said cautiously, "Sir, why don't you lead the soldiers and rush forward, kill them by surprise, and expose them to Tujia Fort? You don't dare to fight to the death with us."
Li Siyuan hesitated and said, "This...this is good, that's the decision."
Gan Jitong expressed his concerns and said, "Sir, we haven't figured out the enemy's situation yet. If we lead the soldiers in a blind charge, I'm afraid we may fall into the enemy's trap."
"this…"
Li Siyuan looked at Gan Jitong and then at Lin Hongzhuang, his eyes full of confusion and he didn't know what to do.
Lin Hongzhuang looked displeased and said angrily, "Gan Jitong, what do you mean?"
"Go back now, do you want to embarrass the Lord?"
Gan Jitong waved his hand and said, "Sir, I...I didn't mean that, I meant..."
Lin Hongzhuang interrupted, "Okay, stop talking."
Then he looked at Li Siyuan and asked for instructions, "Sir, let's gather the soldiers and attack Qingliang Mountain together. We will surely annihilate the enemy forces in Tujia Fort in one fell swoop."
Li Siyuan paused and said, "Are you... sure?"
Lin Hongzhuang said in a persuasive manner, "Sir, if you don't miss this opportunity, it will never come again. If you miss this opportunity, it will be harder than climbing to the sky to meet the main force of Tujia Fort again."
"That's...ok!" Li Siyuan nodded and looked at the generals beside him, "You guys will follow Lin Hongzhuang's command later."
"Yes, sir."
Although the other generals were extremely reluctant to follow Lin Hongzhuang's command, if they didn't listen to Li Siyuan's words, it would be disobedience. They didn't have the courage.
Lin Hongzhuang was overjoyed, patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, sir, the general will definitely annihilate the enemy for you. Your Excellency, I'm here to wait for the good news about the general!"
After saying that, he immediately led everyone away.
Before Lin Hongzhuang could gather his troops, Tujiapu enemies from all directions had already surrounded him. In an instant, the sound of fighting and screams could be heard...
Gan Jitong tried his best to hide, and finally pushed down the mountain and found Li Siyuan, "Sir, it's bad, we are surrounded."
"What?"
Li Siyuan was shocked, and said with trembling hands, "Damn Lin Hongzhuang, he misjudged me, and he deserves to be cut into pieces..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his attention to Gan Jitong and said hurriedly, "Gan Qianhu, what should we do now?"
Gan Ji paused and made up his mind, "Sir, I'll cover you. Let's withdraw from the encirclement first. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Ah...yes, withdraw from the encirclement first. General Gan, you and I will withdraw together!"
Li Siyuan had no opinion. No matter what Gan Jitong said, he nodded in agreement.
The Nanyi army was defeated like a mountain. The shadow in Yang Qinhai's heart finally dissipated. He jumped suddenly and landed directly on the rocks. He opened his throat and shouted loudly, "Boys of Tujiapu, follow me and kill all these Nanyi troops."
, to avenge our fallen warriors previously.”
