Chapter 110: Withdrawal without warning
With a wave of Lian Yunpo's arm, his final order was issued: "Tomorrow! It's tomorrow! Everyone is ready for me, and all the generals also hurried to inform the various troops to get ready." It's tomorrow! I'm going to lead the 76,000 troops here and directly sweep away the resisters on the other side of the Yokoga barracks. ”
As the words ended, Lian Yunpo's waving arm also made a breeze.
The breeze was almost blowing in the council house for a while, but it almost fanned the fire in everyone's hearts more violently.
The crowd uttered the words 'yes, yes, yes,' and they were about to get ready for action.
But at this moment, there was a sound of running outside the door. The sound of the running was so rapid, but it didn't take long for it to seem to disappear. Immediately after, the door of the house was suddenly opened, and there was a loud 'pop' sound.
"What's going on?" The first person to ask the question was Sun Junfeng, as an archer and archer, he reacted the fastest among the people.
But his inquiries were not answered, and even because the door was open for a longer time, the cold wind outside the door blew in.
Lu Lei is the most exaggerated among them, because he wears the least clothes. The flesh on his cheeks twitched from time to time, and he quickly uttered a few whining words, "Who?
Again, no one responded to his question, but in the next second, an indescribable force burst out.
Lian Yunpo and Zhang Zhijie, who were present, had almost realized who it was. They also stood calmly, but their eyes were a little empty.
Soon after, a short figure stopped in the middle of the room, with a rapier pinned to his waist.
At the same time as he appeared, he also knelt directly on one knee towards Lian Yunpo, showing a great sense of respect.
"Hey, if you want to come here, why bother to use any swift steps? Don't you have two legs?" Zhang Zhijie let out a void gaze, and his tone was quite dissatisfied.
The rest of the people were not in a much better mood, and Sun Junfeng really wanted to pull out a light arrow at this moment and attack the assassin.
However, the revealed assassin didn't care about the reasons of others, he just continued to face Lian Yunpo, and released some words, "Tell Generalissimo Lian, I have something to tell." ”
Seeing this, Lian Yun threw down his arm casually. It's just that he also frowned, "I said Li Shuangjue! You have something to tell you, why do you need to make such an exaggerated show? We all know your master-level strength here, and you don't need to show it anymore." ”
At the moment when Lian Yunpo spoke, many discontents around him came. However, after seeing Lian Yunpo's hands raised, everyone was silent.
Li Shuangjue always lowered his head slightly, and when he lifted it up, the expression on his face was excessively panicked.
Assassins are rarely surprised!Lian Yunpo's eyes widened. He pointed at Li Shuangjue, who was kneeling on the ground, and after signaling the other party to stand up, he was ready to listen to what was going on.
"Marshal Lian! I came back from a border expedition just now and found a ...... A very strange thing. Li Shuangjue's eyes widened.
"Li Shuangjue, you get up first! ”
It should have heard Lian Yunpo's order, and Li Shuangjue did start to stand up.
"What the hell is going on? General Li Shuangjue?"
After straightening his knees, Li Shuangjue informed him of what he had heard, "Tell the Generalissimo that when I was patrolling, I found something very strange. The watchtowers built by the Sarans are now hollowed out by the vice-figures. ”
When Li Shuangjue had just told all the information, Marshal Lian was indeed surprised by the word 'what'. The others didn't have to talk about it, almost as if they had been hit by something, and their mouths were very open.
In response to such a scene, Li Shuangjue shook his head with bared teeth, "Hmm, what? Do you think the confidence I just talked about is very surprising? Tell you, I have something even more surprising?"
"What's wrong, Li Shuangjue?" Lian Yunpo put his hand in the direction of Li Shuangjue.
"Tell Marshal Lian. Not only are there no Saran soldiers in the border towers. Even the Yokoga barracks...... Even in the Yokoga military camp, there is no one left. In other words, the Saranites withdrew. ”
"What?" Lian Yunpo continued to be shocked. He took a few steps forward until he stopped in front of Li Shuangjue, "What the hell is going on?"
"I don't know. But that's what happened, the Saranites withdrew. Instead of concentrating their troops on the border, they withdrew to the northeast. ”
"Huh?" Lian Yunpo breathed, as if he was holding his chest tightly, "What......?
"How is this possible? How did they withdraw their troops? There was no warning before, right?" Sun Junfeng asked uneasily.
"Do they really have to withdraw?" Zhang Zhijie couldn't believe it, because he couldn't think of a reason for the Saranites to do this.
"They're really withdrawing. I personally went to the Yokoga military camp to investigate, and there really wasn't a single soldier inside. And from some spies, they were still very anxious to evacuate, as if they had left suddenly yesterday. Li Shuangjue truthfully told the information he knew.
He had been in charge of the investigation before, and there was no better job for the job than his profession as an Assassin, which was why he did not appear in the council.
"Suddenly left?" Zhang Zhijie immediately made a reasoning appearance of touching his chin.
But why should they...... Why do you want to withdraw your troops suddenly?" Sun Junfeng continued to let out an uneasy look, "This is too ...... That's counterintuitive, isn't it?"
"Yes! I don't understand the reason for their withdrawal. Lian Yun straightened his waist, "It stands to reason that they shouldn't do this." Judging by the fact that they built watchtowers on the border, they must have cherished their land very much. How did you suddenly withdraw your troops at this juncture?"
Lian Yun looked extremely incredible, but his attitude was still relatively peaceful, and he did not show an exaggerated sense of panic like several of his subordinates.
"I was also very confused. Honestly, Generalissimo!At first, when I found out this information, I thought my eyes were glazed!" Li Shuangjue tilted his head sideways, and shook his head slightly.
"Are you sure that the information you brought must be correct?" Sun Junfeng suddenly said coldly.
In an instant, Li Shuangjue's expression changed, and from the panicked look in his body, his face tightened. He suddenly turned his head to face Sun Junfeng, and his eyes were full of cold light, "What's the matter?" General Sun Junfeng is doubting my ability?"
Sun Junfeng didn't mean to take a step back at this moment, he opened his hands and continued to release mocking words, "Who knows? After all, there are some people! Who knows if he was captured by the Salans at that time, and then specially gave us some wrong information?"
"Watch your mouth, expert archer. If Marshal Lian hadn't been here, I would have given some verbal food. Li Shuangjue had already put his hand on the hilt of the sword on his waist.
"That's enough!
Fortunately, Lian Yunpo's roar suddenly suppressed the contradiction between the two people who were about to break out. Immediately afterwards, the two turned around each other, and they didn't seem to even want to face each other.
"I want you all to know something, we're all on the march at the moment. Therefore, it is better not to have some contradictions that should not be there. Lian Yun took turns looking at the two people who were arguing just now. However, in the end, his gaze stayed on Sun Junfeng's body for a longer time, "There is one more thing I want to emphasize. Guan Yunlong's matter has passed, don't mention it on your lips when you have nothing to do. And everything is also poked out by him, and it has nothing to do with other people. As for the patrol matters, I personally dispatched General Li Shuangjue to handle them. I naturally believe 100% of all the information he brought, and I don't need anyone to question me, have you heard that?"
Although Lian Yunpo mixed the word 'you' at the end, everyone present knew that the person targeted by the marshal was Sun Junfeng.
Sun Junfeng quickly shrunk his neck when he heard this, and his nose was still sobbing, as if he had a bad cold. He didn't say anything more, just looked at Li Shuangjue a few times in embarrassment.
Li Shuangjue didn't show any smug expression at the moment, he was also silent and didn't say anything.
There was a sudden silence in the atmosphere, and no one spoke again, at least for a few seconds
Zhang Zhijie felt that this situation was not good, so he just clenched his staff and took a few small steps forward, "Let's talk about the current situation! Why did the Salans withdraw their troops?"
After Zhang Zhijie got up first, the rest of the people stopped being embarrassed, and they also threw themselves into the charter of the discussion time.
"That's right! Why did they withdraw their troops? This is indeed as General Li Shuangjue said, and it is too contrary to common sense. Zhu Qi read the words in pieces, but although his voice was soft, he could still pronounce the words very clearly.
Li Shuangjue couldn't help but shake his head after hearing it, "Since I came back, I felt very strange. I wanted to pull a Saran soldier to ask. But...... As far as the border is concerned, not a single Saran soldier can be found on the border, so I can't even arrest anyone to ask. ”
"It seems that they withdrew in a planned and purposeful manner, not like a headless fly. Lian Yun waved his hand rather casually.
"But the question arises again, why on earth are they leaving? We haven't done anything these days, right? Logically speaking, they shouldn't have left at this time?" Zhang Zhijie looked at the crowd.
Lian Yunpo couldn't answer his question, so he made a thoughtful look and began to walk deeper into the room. Looking at the map of the ancient East Asia, he imagined that if he were the marshal of Saran, what thoughts and purposes would he have to order the army to withdraw?
gradually entered a state of complete distraction, and Lian Yun became a little confused.
The others also didn't let go of the idea of thinking, but they couldn't think of a reason. At this time, Lu Lei jokingly put forward an opinion, which can be regarded as a kind of half-joking.
"I was thinking...... They don't think they can't beat us, so they quit their troops, right?" he touched his chin with one hand and smiled as he brought out his thoughts.
But at the moment when he finished speaking, he really attracted the contempt of everyone around him.
"Hey, what are you thinking? If they really want to surrender, why do they need to withdraw their troops? Run directly to our barracks and kneel, isn't it?" Zhu Qi let out accusations to the fullest, making Lu Lei already a little ashamed.
But as time passed, people still couldn't figure out why. Because when morale is high, choosing to withdraw without warning can feel weird at any time. So the people present couldn't come up with an answer at all.
I really couldn't think of what the group of Salans meant, so Lu Lei directly clapped his hands angrily, "Ahh ”
Lu Lei's words aroused criticism from others, and even Zhang Zhijie glared at him, "If you don't know what the other party thinks and attack rashly, you may fall into the enemy's danger." ”
"That's it. Since the enemy dares to retreat, I think they must be full of ambushes on the way! Zhu Qi immediately lifted the lower staff and slammed it to the ground. He could hear the sound of a 'pop', and a small hole was about to appear in the pavement at his feet.
"But even so, can't we make a move?" Lu Lei clenched his fist excitedly and counted.
"Even if you want to make a move, you have to wait until you are familiar with the other person's thoughts. Otherwise, isn't it tantamount to sending the army to their tiger's mouth?" Zhang Zhijie said in an accusatory tone.
"Hmph, I think they're just playing tricks. Whatever good tactics the Saranites can come up with, they're just shit. I think...... It just broke us in. See where they retreat, we will attack wherever they go, can't we?" Lu Lei spread his hands casually, and waved in front of him from time to time.
