Chapter 298: Scholars Die in the Country

The curtain of the military tent was lifted, and a young scholar with oily hair and pink face dressed in exquisite clothes walked in, and some jade pendants hanging from his waist jingled, and the whole person looked incompatible with the slaughtering military tent camp.

"Lord Commander!" The next group of generals bowed to the scholar who came in.

"Uh-huh." Seeing everyone saluting, the scholar was very arrogant, and he didn't even look at them, but after squinting at them, he gave a few perfunctory thanks, and then frowned and took out a handkerchief and covered his nose.

Looking like that, it seems that the smell of sweat on the soldiers is very unbearable.

Seeing this military supervisor behaving like this, several generals were angry, but no one said anything, and after bowing, several people retreated to the side, and no longer paid attention to this weak scholar.

"The military supervisor came to my little military tent, I don't know what you are doing?" The general stood with his hands in his hands, looked down at the oily-haired overseer, and asked in a tone that seemed mild, but in fact was very disdainful.

"Hehe......" The scholar smiled a few times, arched his hand at the general, put the handkerchief back on his nose, and said angrily, "General Zhang, the king's order has been down for two days, when are you going to lead the troops to retreat?" The army of Chu has already set up camp twenty miles away, do you know that you are disobeying the king's order like this? ”

"It is precisely because the army of the Chu State is already twenty miles away that I can't retreat!" The general snorted from his nose, and the powder-faced scholar in front of him, who was two heads shorter than him, felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart, "This is the territory of my Cai country, if I retreat so casually, how can I be worthy of the people of my Cai country, and how can I face the entrustment of the previous king?" ”

"The first king is the first king, and the first thing you have to be loyal to is the current king!" The scholar raised his head and glared at General Zhang, and said with some annoyance, "The State of Chu is menacing, if you have a conflict with it here and annoy the State of Chu, then our Kingdom of Cai is in danger!" The State of Chu sent 50,000 troops, and you only have less than 30,000 soldiers here, how can you resist? Only by retreating first, and then seeking peace with the State of Chu, can I keep Cai Guo's health and well-being! ”

"Rely on you scholars to make peace with the wolf ambition of the Chu State?" General Zhang snorted from his nose, glared at his giant eyes, and said angrily, "I have sued for peace several times before, do you see what you scholars have done?" The hundreds of miles of land and countless treasures and grains of our Cai State were given to the Chu State by you so plainly! Our people are struggling to make a living, but every time the Chu State only stops for a few months, it is another large-scale invasion! If you scholars continue to toss like this, our Cai Kingdom will not be far from the country of death! ”

"Ridiculous! General Zhang, I will definitely tell the king what you said truthfully! The scholar had a red face and a thick neck, and he almost jumped to his feet with anger, "How can our efforts be understood by a martial artist like you?" You just want to fight a war and then reap military merit! If you do this, you really want to make the people's lives miserable! You keep saying that the king has entrusted you, so where are you going to put the king! ”

"The king is still young, and he is all confused by you scholars and servants! For a jackal-like enemy like the Chu State, blindly retreating will only make its appetite even greater! Only when we fight back and beat them up can we make him sober! Knowing that our Cai Guo is not so weak and deceitful! General Zhang said angrily, "Zhang has never been uncommon with military exploits, all I want is for our Cai Guo to exist with dignity, not to survive by cutting the land!" The 30,000 soldiers under my command are all hot-blooded heroes, and they can defend their country with their lives against the invading enemy! ”

"Ridiculous! It's ridiculous! The scholar trembled and said angrily, "There are only 30,000 people on your side, but there are 50,000 troops on the Chu side, and there are reinforcements in the follow-up, how can you fight!" You're disregarding the lives of your soldiers! ”

"Every one of our soldiers is ready to die with the enemy! Including me! General Zhang said coldly.

"No! Absolutely not! The scholar was in a hurry, and he didn't choose what to say, "You guys are going to work hard, so what should I do?" I don't know how much my life is more precious than you warriors! I must not die here! ”

As soon as these words came out, not only General Zhang, but even the generals behind him showed sarcasm. And Mo Yun stood aside, also sneering. Useless is a scholar, although this sentence is said to be a partial generalization, but in history, many examples of the death of the country, but most of them are because of those who think they are full of poetry and books, but they are timid and sour readers. This guy in front of you is the best example!

Every time you slaughter more dogs, you are more likely to be readers!

Seeing this, Mo Yun also knew that this should be the war between Cai and Chu during the Spring and Autumn Period. In history, Cai State has been destroyed by Chu State many times, and the reasons for this are no longer available in historical data, but now it seems that in addition to the gap in military strength, I am afraid that the so-called civil officials of Cai State have also contributed greatly in the process of destroying the country!

"Master Li, you don't have to worry, I will send someone to send you back to the capital later, and I will never lose your good life!" By the way, please help me tell the king, I will defend the territory of Cai to the death, but as long as there is a soldier left, I will never back down half a step! General Zhang said to the scholar, his tone full of mockery.

"That's not going to work! You must go back with me with the whole army! The scholar said angrily, "Let's not mention that if the Chu army is likely to send someone to intercept and kill me, just your soldiers here, that is half of the strength of our Cai State!" I'll be honest with you, the king asked you to retreat a hundred miles is fake, he plans to let you return to the royal city directly with the troops and guard his safety in the royal city! ”

"What?!" This news was like a thunderbolt from the sky, directly slashing at General Zhang's head, "The Chu army is still more than 600 miles away from the royal city, is the king planning to give away all of our Cai Guo by doing this?!" ”

"This decision was negotiated by the prime minister, we can slowly figure out the territory and other things, and keeping the king is the foundation of everything!" Seeing General Zhang's shock, the scholar seemed a little proud, and shook his head.

"Damn the old Peshuo horseman!" General Zhang's angry beard was all open, "It must be that damn guy, in order to save his own life, this is how to bewitch the king like this!" ”

"General Zhang, I will tell the Prime Minister all these things you have said." The scholar said coldly.

"Damn, are these guys going to do anything more ridiculous?" Mo Yun was so angry that his teeth were itching, if he didn't know that there were some illusions in front of him, he would definitely do it directly and beat this oily-haired cream boy to a fat beating!

The enemy is still hundreds of miles away, and these damned civil officials have begun to plan a way back for their lives and family property, and would rather give up the great rivers and mountains than let the soldiers come back to protect them? What the is this kidding? Mo Yun dared to guarantee that if the Chu State really came to the city at that time, the first to slip away would definitely be these so-called big officials!

Maybe they will directly open the city and surrender!

"Bastard boy surnamed Li, go back and tell the old man of Heshuo that Lao Tzu will never abandon the territory of the people of my Cai Kingdom and go back to protect them damn guys! My soldiers, they are there to resist the enemy, not to protect them! General Zhang's face was distorted, and he glared at the scholar viciously.

"Hmph, you may be able to save your life when you go back, if you fight hard with the wolf-like Chu army here, you will definitely not survive! It's a battle that must be lost, so is it interesting to fight like this? It's better to think about yourself! The scholar snorted and said disdainfully, "You martial artists, you just lack roots in your brains!" ”

"Shut up! If you talk nonsense again, I will show you to the public believe it or not! General Zhang roared angrily, in this situation, the scholar's words are to disturb the morale of the army!

The scholar seemed to be taken aback, but then he was not to be outdone: "What, did I say something wrong?" I don't believe you when you say you have few tendons! ”

"Get out, get out! Go back to the royal city in half an hour, I don't want to see you again!" General Zhang shouted angrily, "Come on, take him away for me!" ”

However, at this moment, a person broke into the big tent directly, his face was anxious, he gasped for breath, and said: "General, report to the general, big ...... Big things are wrong! ”

"What's wrong? Say it! General Zhang suddenly became nervous, and he didn't care about driving the Li Jian army away, so he hurriedly helped the soldier up and asked.

"General, just now the scout came to report, the Chu army is assembling, and the 50,000 army has already been drawn and is coming directly towards us, at this time, I am afraid that it has been ten miles away!" The soldier couldn't take any longer, and hurriedly told the news.

"What!" Everyone's complexion suddenly changed, General Zhang's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, he turned around and walked out of the camp tent directly, and jumped onto the sentry tower on the side, and the distance was indeed filled with smoke and dust, and the red banner of the Chu army was already looming!

"Damn! It's coming so quickly! General Zhang jumped off the sentry tower and shouted, "Order, the whole army gathers, and prepare for battle!" ”

The horn of the "Woo ......" assembly suddenly sounded, and countless soldiers quickly gathered towards the school field from all over the place, and more than 30,000 people were assembled in less than a few minutes!

General Zhang also finished wearing and boarded the school ground, while the Li Jianjun followed behind him with a pale face.

"What to do, what to do! General Zhang, hurry up and let people send me away! Chu Jun is coming, I don't want to die! The scholar's feet were already swinging, and his face was colorless.

"Damn, bastard!" Mo Yun followed behind the two of them, and when he heard this guy's words, he immediately snorted.
