Chapter 703 Trembling
Chapter 703 Trembling
"I...I have something I want to tell you."
General Li turned his head and looked at Lian Yi, his eyes brimming with the hope of shooting out a sword.
"what's up?"
Lian Yi didn't dare to look General Li in the eye. He lowered his head and said, "A large part of the reason for the failure of this battle is me."
"When we got to the fork in the road, I thought Ni'er's suggestion was good, but she had no practical experience, so I sent people to check both roads."
"They came back and said that another route was indeed more suitable for an ambush."
"I didn't go and see it myself. I thought they were veterans and had a lot of experience, so I listened to them. Who knew this would be the result?"
The more General Li listened to Lian Yi speak, the more disgusted and disgusted he felt.
She made such a serious mistake, but she still tried to shift the blame to the soldiers who had already sacrificed their lives for their country!
This is simply disrespect and blasphemy to the dead!
General Li cursed inwardly, since there was no evidence to prove her crime, she could now make up stories as she pleased.
If she continues like this, it won't be long before she can completely clear herself of responsibility.
General Li really couldn't stand Lian Yi's nonsense, so he interrupted him without hesitation.
He said coldly: "Well, you don't need to mention this matter anymore. If you have nothing else to say, please leave. I need to rest now."
Lian Yi felt a sinking feeling in his heart when he saw General Li’s resolute attitude.
She realized that today was probably not the right time to talk about this matter, so she decided to let it go for the time being.
"Okay, then you have a good rest. I'll take my leave first." Lian Yi said.
After Lian Yi walked out of the tent, he always felt something was wrong.
She recalled the scene when she was with General Li just now, and seemed to feel a vague murderous aura lingering around her.
"Could it be that General Li already knows something?" Lian Yi thought to himself.
Lian Yi's heartbeat became more and more rapid. She lowered her head and staggered forward, completely unaware of the person in front of her.
"Ouch!" A scream was heard suddenly, and Lian Yi realized that he had bumped into someone.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Don't you even look where you're going?" the man who was hit muttered in dissatisfaction. "You really think you're a general? You fought such a terrible battle, you'll never be a general again!"
However, Lian Yi had no time to care about the other party's complaints at this time. His mind was full of whether General Li knew what he had done.
After finally returning to his tent, Lian Yi sat on a chair and began to think hard.
"If General Li really knew what I did, he would definitely punish me instead of just being rude to me. Yes, that must be the case. He definitely doesn't know about this now." Lian Yi analyzed secretly.
"But what if he really knows and doesn't want to punish me using conventional methods? No, I can't just sit there and wait for death. I have to take the initiative."
Lian Yi frowned tightly, feeling increasingly anxious.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind: "I heard that General Li doesn't even have a female fly around him. He's very clean."
"If I could find a way to get into the General's Mansion, wouldn't that be a great thing?"
Thinking of this, Lian Yi couldn't help but reveal a sly smile on his face.
After all, General Li is a battle-hardened man. He has experienced countless brutal battles and has seen battles even more tragic than today.
So, even though Ni'er had told him not to sleep before, he put those words behind him and went to bed.
However, Nier couldn't sleep tonight.
She lay in bed, tossing and turning, the images of the dead soldiers constantly appearing in her mind.
She couldn't help but wonder how these people's families would bear the pain of losing their loved ones?
Moreover, most of those people were burned to death. Nier imagined them struggling in the sea of fire, and her heart was filled with pity and fear.
Lian Yi, on the other hand, was a coward who only cared about her own life. She escaped on her own and did not suffer any serious injuries.
Ni'er's thoughts turned to Yichuan again.
If Yichuan joins the army in the future, will she be reluctant to let him go? She bit her lip, feeling a little conflicted.
Ni'er decided that when she returned, she would check Yichuan's homework carefully to see how he was doing.
She hopes that Yichuan can become a person capable of protecting himself, so that even if he really goes to the battlefield in the future, he will still have a chance of survival.
In addition, Ni'er also plans to find a teacher for Yichuan so that he can not only learn martial arts, but also understand reason and gain wisdom.
Because just having martial arts skills is a very dangerous thing.
These days, General Li has been working day and night without sleep in order to achieve the final victory.
He not only studied the terrain of the battlefield in depth, but also made a meticulous analysis of the enemy's deployment.
At the same time, he is also well aware of the common tactics and methods used by enemy generals.
General Li knew very well that every battle was related to the life and death of many soldiers, and he would never let his brothers sacrifice in vain.
Therefore, he made sufficient preparations before the war and did not miss any details that might affect the war situation.
The suffering caused by war is not limited to the military.
During the fighting between the two armies, the ones who suffered the most were the innocent people living on the border and the old mothers waiting for their sons to return home.
General Li knew that only by winning a great and beautiful victory could the enemy be deterred from invading easily again, thus gaining several years of peace on the border.
So he made up his mind to achieve a decisive victory.
The day to attack the enemy finally arrived. Nie'er and the princess were in the military camp, listening to the exciting sound of the battle horn, and their hearts couldn't help but tighten.
Although General Li's injuries have healed by 70% to 80%, he has not yet fully recovered. It is unknown whether his body can withstand rushing to the battlefield in such a hurry.
Ni'er couldn't help but worry about General Li.
This morning, Ni'er gave General Li a small medicine bottle. She prepared it specially for General Li. It contained precious life-saving medicine. She hoped that General Li would never need to use it.
In the next few days, good news kept coming from the front. The army led by General Li won victory after victory, forcing the enemy to retreat step by step.
The news of victory made Nier and the princess feel a little relieved.
Unexpectedly, on this very night, Nie'er and the princess were immersed in sweet dreams.
Suddenly, the fire outside flashed across the dark night sky like a flash of lightning, followed by the sound of swords clashing and people's terrified shouts, like a sudden storm.
Nier and the princess were frightened by this sudden change.
