In fact, Su Xiu knew it very well.

Now the vanguard army and the central army of the barbarians have arrived.

There are barbarians everywhere outside.

In addition, it will be dawn soon, and those who have not come back yet will not be able to come back again.

"So how many caches have we destroyed?"

Lao Bai asked.

"Fifty-three storage points, thirty-seven of which were destroyed. The barbarians still have siege equipment in sixteen storage points for use."

Captain Pan said.

"Okay, if so many storage points are destroyed, then this operation will be worthwhile."

Lao Bai said seriously.

"Yes, by destroying most of the siege equipment, our chances of successfully defending the city will be much greater."

"In this way, a lot of people can be saved."

As the general commanding the army, Captain Pan felt sorry for every soldier, but the battlefield was ruthless.

At this time, human life is just a cold number.

"Okay, I want to hear yourselves talk about your situation!"

Captain Pan looked at the two of them and said.

"Speaking of which, if it weren't for Su Xiu, my entire army would have been wiped out."

Lao Bai let out a long sigh, his expression a bit desolate.

Although about twenty people from his group came back, there are still almost twenty people who will never come back.

"what happened?"

When Captain Pan heard this, he was filled with curiosity and asked.

"Is such that……"

Lao Bai started from the beginning and told everything.

"I failed to complete the mission this time and lost so many brothers. As the commander-in-chief, I should bear the responsibility and ask the captain to punish me!"

Lao Bai cupped his hands and half-knelt in front of Captain Pan and said.

"I can't blame you for what happened this time. You have done a good job."

Captain Pan waved his hand.

But seeing that Lao Bai was still half-kneeling, he couldn't help but get angry and said in a deep voice: "What, you want me to help you up?"

"I don't dare, it's just..."

Lao Bai just happened to apologize again, but was directly interrupted by Captain Pan.

"It's just a fart!"

Captain Pan said coldly: "This operation was originally a risky move. The barbarian army came so quickly. No one expected it."

"It can only be said that victory or defeat is a common thing for a military man. What's more, there is no one who will not die in a war?"

"Besides, this time is already very good. If we hadn't destroyed most of the enemy's siege equipment, more people would have died."

"Speaking of which, you only have merit and no fault!"

Captain Pan looked at Lao Bai and said coldly.

"But Governor Ma's side..."

Lao Bai knew that Governor Ma did not agree with this action at first.

Only after Captain Pan issued a military order did Governor Ma have to agree.

Only after Governor Ma nodded, Captain Pan mobilized the elites of each battalion to form thirteen teams.

Now that the barbarian army is outside the city, Lao Bai is afraid that Governor Ma will blame him and punish Captain Pan, so he takes the initiative to plead guilty.

"Is this something you should consider?"

Captain Pan angrily rebuked: "What you should be thinking about now is how to defend the Great Wall and how to drive away the barbarians."

"Yes, my subordinates know!"

Lao Bai cupped his hands, stood up, and stopped talking.

"Good boy, well done!"

"It seems that it is right for you to join Ye Bu Shui."

After listening to Lao Bai's story, Captain Pan also took a deep breath and looked at Su Xiu with admiration.

"If it hadn't been for you this time, my captain who didn't stop me all night wouldn't have been able to come back!"

"Haha, this time your kid is the first to perform meritorious deeds. I will definitely report it and do the meritorious deeds for you!"

Captain Pan laughed, stepped forward and patted Su Xiu on the shoulder.

"Pan Duwei's words are serious, and they should be done."

There are only a few days left in Su Xiu's month-long experience. By the time the request for merit is over, he will have already left.

He didn't care about the rewards from the imperial court.

What's more, Su Xiu didn't understand the conversation between Lao Bai and Captain Pan.

He knew very well who Governor Ma was.

Did he forcibly give the credit for killing hundreds of barbarians to his nephew Ma Xiang soon after the last time he leveled Sha Castle?

Moreover, during this period, he had already heard that Governor Ma and Captain Pan were not willing to deal with them.

Governor Ma only wanted to gain benefits and did not pay attention to the Great Wall border troops at all.

Normally, Governor Ma did not ask about the situation of the border troops, but once he got credit, he put everything into his own pocket.

It's just that these things belong to the fight between gods, and he can't take care of them even if he doesn't collect his team members for a short night.

Now, what he cares more about is whether he can repel the barbarian army before leaving.

It's just a pity that all the storage points were not destroyed tonight, otherwise the barbarians would have no siege equipment and might retreat without a fight.

"Well, being able to not be proud is what it means to do great things."

Hearing Su Xiu's answer, Captain Pan was even more happy.

"Captain Pan, following the barbarian army this time, there are many martial arts masters, including people from the First Grade Hall."

Lao Bai said with a worried face.

"It seems that the barbarians are determined to break the Great Wall this time."

Captain Pan sighed and looked solemn.

"But as long as I, Pan Kai, are here, the barbarians can't even think about it unless they step over my body!"

Immediately, Captain Pan snorted heavily.

"My subordinates are willing to fight to the death with the captain and never retreat!"

Lao Bai followed up and said.

Su Xiu was also infected and couldn't help but feel excited.

"The masters of Yipintang are very powerful, and my subordinates are worried..."

Lao Bai approached Captain Pan and spoke in a voice that only the three people in the tent could hear.

"No need to worry, do you think my sword is vegetarian?"

Captain Pan looked at the long sword on the weapons rack, showing a strong confidence.

He, Pan Kai, has practiced martial arts since he was a child and has been in the army for decades.

Likewise, he is also a martial arts master.

"Okay, it's getting late, you all go down and have a rest."

Captain Pan waved his hand and said, "After today, I still don't know when I can have a good rest!"

"Yes, you should also take a rest!"

Lao Bai said something and took Su Xiu out.

"Su Xiu!"

Not far from the tent, Lao Bai suddenly lowered his voice and called to Su Xiu.

"Old Bai, is something wrong?"

Su Xiu looked at Lao Bai with a serious face.
