The sky began to glow white, and the fog in the dense forest seemed to be thicker.

Even the two stood facing each other, as if separated by a thin veil.

Cao Zhen personally treated Cao Shuang's wounds, and the short feather arrow clearly appeared in front of him.

"Bear with me..."

Cao Zhen wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and whispered to Cao Shuang.

Someone next to him handed over a piece of gauze and stuffed it into Cao Shuang's mouth.

He looked at his father silently, forced a smile to himself, and nodded slowly.

Cao Zhen took a deep breath and no longer looked at Cao Shuang, but grabbed the feather arrow, gritted his teeth and pulled it out.

"Poof..."

Blood kept gushing out, and in an instant, the entire arm was dyed blood-red.

Cao Shuang stiffened violently, bit the gauze in his mouth, and let out a dull roar.

After a while, he rolled his eyes and fainted.

The doctors who had been preparing for the surrounding area for a long time quickly stepped forward and began to treat Cao Shuang's wounds.

"General Qiyu, the feather arrow is not poisonous, after the wound is treated, then calm down and recuperate, it will be fine!"

After the two doctors treated Cao Shuang's wounds, they got up and bowed to Cao Zhen.

After hearing what the two doctors said, Cao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

What he is most afraid of is that there will be poison on this arrow, if it is really like that, Cao Shuang's life will be ruined.

Even if he can save his life in the end, the general who lost an arm will be of little use.

"General, now is not the time to worry about the major general, the most important thing now is, what should we do?!"

After the adjutant general saw that it was almost done here, he immediately stepped forward and said.

The light of the fire around them has become clearer and clearer, and I am afraid that it will only take less than a day, and they will have nowhere to escape.

"What do you say?"

Cao Zhen suddenly set his eyes on Vice General Li, who was accompanying Cao Shuang.

"I've heard my son talk about you a long time ago, and now you can also share your opinion."

Vice General Li was not hypocritical, and after hearing Cao Zhen's words, he immediately got up and came to him, bowing his hand.

"General Qiyu, just now when you were treating the wounds of the young general, the sentry has already returned.

Just ahead of us, there is a path that leads beyond the dense forest. The sentinel also went to see it himself.

Which Li is indeed a way to live, and it is certain that it was deliberately left by the enemy! ”

Vice General Li's words came out faintly, plunging the surroundings into silence.

Even the doctor who was bandaging Cao Shuang's wound began to slow down.

Everyone understood what Vice General Li's words meant, and now there was a path in front of them.

As long as you embark on this path, you can live.

It's just that the price they will have to pay is surrender!

Cao Zhen also fell into silence, of course he knew why the other party did this.

First let them kill each other and fall into a desperate situation, and then there will be a way to live, a way for everyone to know.

In this way, everyone will have their own ideas at this moment, and the morale of the army will immediately begin to slacken.

There is no way to solve this problem, and when faced with death, everyone's instinct is to survive.

"And what do you mean?"

After a long time, under the blazing gaze of everyone, Cao Zhen looked at Vice General Li again and asked.

"In this matter, the last general is not qualified to speak, everything is up to the general!"

Vice General Li was very smart and did not go to Cao Zhen's question.

Answering such a question at such a time is no different from looking for death.

Seeing that Vice General Li did not answer his own questions, Cao Zhen sighed lightly and looked at his deputy general again.

It's just that his own lieutenant is even smarter, and he doesn't look at him at all.

Buried his head deeply, making an appearance of resolute obedience to orders.

Cao Zhen, who had no choice, swept his gaze over the poor soldiers around him one by one.

These few days are undoubtedly the most painful for them.

It had been a long time since he had eaten a hot meal, nor had he had a good night's sleep.

Facing this life and death test anytime and anywhere, my nerves have always been tense, and I dare not relax for a moment.

Cao Zhen, who has led the army for many years, knows that the current situation is very unfavorable to himself.

Once their own decisions touched the minimum of the soldiers, breaking their current state.

Then, it is quite possible that there will be a direct mutiny.

At that time, not to mention what kind of general he is, even if the emperor comes, it will have no effect.

"Let's..."

As soon as Cao Zhen said two words, he heard the breathing of the people around him begin to become heavy.

"Let's surrender..."

It was very obvious that Cao Zhen heard the sound of almost everyone breathing a sigh of relief.

"General, we can't surrender, just surrender like this, is there still a way to live?"

Just when everyone was relieved, a discordant voice suddenly appeared.

In an instant, almost all the people with murderous eyes gathered on the person who spoke.

Cao Zhen shouted wildly in his heart, he really liked himself too much as a lieutenant general.

What you want to do, you don't need to say it yourself, and it's natural to understand the meaning.

He decided that as long as he could get out of here, he would definitely reward this kid well.

The person who spoke was Cao Zhen's lieutenant, and he didn't really want to dissuade Cao Zhen from surrendering.

He knows Cao Zhen very well, just now he said the words of surrender, if no one came out to stop him.

His prestige and influence will decline dramatically.

At this time, someone needs to come out to accompany him in this scene, and he needs to stop the humiliating thing on himself.

It can be seen that the deputy general is very experienced in doing this kind of thing.

Now, he has succeeded in arousing everyone's hatred.

"You think I want to surrender?"

Of course, Cao Zhen would not let go of such an opportunity, and he immediately said with a sad face.

"Look at these sergeants of ours, they are all brothers who were born and died with me.

They have sacrificed too much for me and for the court now, how can I still have the hearts of the people to send them to death?

My personal honor and disgrace are worthless compared to the lives of my brothers!

So, no more, let's surrender! As long as we live, there will be opportunities.

Someday, we will wash away today's humiliation ourselves!! ”

Cao Zhen's impassioned words, everyone around him was enthusiastic.

They all looked at Cao Zhen with grateful eyes, as if the reason why they surrendered was for them, and Cao Zhen suffered a big loss.

The deputy general silently came behind Cao Zhen, and when the two staggered, they looked at each other like a sharp heart.

At this moment, they both saw that touch of cunning in each other's eyes...
