Chapter Seventy-One: A Change of Strategy
"General, are you alright?"
After several thrills, Qi Kun finally returned to the army safely.
"Thanks to you this time, Chen Qu."
Qi Kun was still embarrassed at the moment, his face was covered with blood and dust, and the helmet on his head was lost at some point, and his cloak was like a beggar. Where can you still see the high-spirited posture of a general?
"If you hadn't made a quick decision and ordered the siege of the city, I'm afraid that Ben would have been trapped in the city at this moment. I'm going to leave you behind, and that's right! ”
Qi Kun stretched out his hand and patted Chen Qu's shoulder, and at the critical moment, he was really his own person. I read this kid right!
"General Miao praised, the general once ordered the last general to act, and the last general just obeyed the general's orders."
Chen Qu touched his nose and said with some restraint.
"Hikosheng, this should be your first time on the battlefield, right?"
Looking at Chen Qu's appearance, Qi Kun couldn't help but show a warm smile, it seemed that he had always been too strict with him, and he was obviously not a person who obeyed the rules.
Thinking of this, Qi Kun couldn't help but reach out and wanted to stroke Chen Qu's hair.
"General!"
Chen Qu immediately blushed and knocked Qi Kun's hand off. A little flustered, he took two steps back, and looked at Qi Kun with a hint of puzzlement in his eyes.
"Still called General?"
Qi Kun looked at Chen Qu with a smile on his face, with a hint of playfulness in his eyes, and asked Chen Qu in a tone that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Righteousness...... Father-in-law. ”
At this time, Chen Qu's face turned even redder, and at the same time, the incomprehension in his eyes became thicker and thicker. On the battlefield, there are only superiors and subordinates, and there is no intimacy and distance, which is given to him by Qi Kun.
Even not long ago, Chen Qu was reprimanded by Qi Kun for calling the wrong name once, so now he is still more or less afraid.
"Do you think I'm a little out of the ordinary?"
Listening to Chen Qu's stumbling voice, Qi Kun suddenly felt a lot better, and it seemed that this defeat was not so unacceptable.
"I don't know, what's wrong. Maybe it's because I haven't been on the battlefield for a long time, so I'm timid. ”
Saying that, Qi Kun couldn't help but sneer, looking up at the gray tent, and didn't know what he was thinking? However, there was some relief, self-deprecation, and annoyance on his face.
"No, it won't! The father-in-law will not be afraid! ”
Chen Qu's loud shout pierced Qi Kun's ear, waking Qi Kun up from this strange decadent state.
"For as long as I can remember, my father-in-law has been a hero! A righteous hero! ”
Qi Kun looked at Chen Qu in surprise, but found that his eyes were red.
"Father-in-law, for as long as you can remember, you have been telling your children stories about the battlefield back then. The child has always longed for the father-in-law in this story, and has always wanted to be the father-in-law in the story. Raise 300,000 troops, crisscrossing Kyushu! Fang is a true hero! ”
Warm tears flowed down Chen Qu's cheeks and dripped to the ground. It wet the ground, and it also wet Qi Kun's slightly decadent heart!
"Hahaha...... Aha! ”
Looking at Chen Qu who was silently crying, Qi Kun suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing wildly and uninhibitedly, laughing arrogantly, laughing indomitable!
"Father-in-law, what are you laughing at?"
Looking at Qi Kun, who suddenly laughed out loud, Chen Qu asked a little strangely.
"Laughing at what? I'm laughing at my stupidity! It's just a single loss, and that's what made me like this! Suffering from gains and losses, self-blame and guilt, and fear! Is this still me? I...... Is it still the same me back then?! ”
"My father-in-law has always been the same as he was back then, a warrior who is invincible on the battlefield! Isn't the strange bird Qi Kun exactly your father-in-law? ”
Seeing that Qi Kun seemed to be recovering a little, Chen Qu immediately began to cheer him on and cheer him up.
"Strange birds? Strange birds? ”
Qi Kun lowered his head, a look of remembrance on his face.
"It's been a long time ago, and it's a strange bird. Does anyone still remember me as a veteran? ”
What was said on his lips, but Qi Kun had a confident expression on his face.
"Strange birds, strange birds! That's right, I'm a weird bird! ”
Qi Kun kept chattering in his mouth, but the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, and at the same time, the coldness and killing intent under this smile became more and more intense.
"Father-in-law?"
Chen Qu looked at Qi Kun like this, and he didn't know whether he should be happy or worried. But he instinctively felt that Qi Kun's appearance was dangerous.
"It's okay, my father-in-law is fine. My father-in-law just remembered something, so you should call me my father-in-law in the future. Speaking of which, my father-in-law was not a well-behaved person in the first place, otherwise he would not be called a strange bird! ”
Win with righteousness and odds! He was not a person who was a soldier in the first place, and this time he fought again, originally wanting to revive his majesty, so that the name of Qi Kun would be spread to everyone on this battlefield again!
But I don't want to be tied up by this, blindly steady and steady, and here with a stop city, is it interesting? Meaningless!
"Father-in-law, why did you suddenly ......"
Seeing Qi Kun, who was suddenly resurrected with full blood, and even suddenly changed a lot, Chen Qu was stunned. This is a world of difference from his impression of the stereotyped and strict image.
"What happened all of a sudden? Suddenly better at talking? ”
Qi Kun smiled lightly and asked Chen Qu.
"Uh......"
Qi Kun's question made Chen Qu speechless. He could only smile awkwardly and stand in place, his head bowed and motionless.
"My stepfather was like this, but I didn't notice it before."
Qi Kun and Yan Yuese explained to Chen Qu, and then their faces turned straight, and they asked again: "Soldiers, how are they?" Although the losses in this plan are not large, it is bound to be a huge blow to morale. ”
"You're right, you're going to ......"
"Huh?"
"Father-in-law, what my father-in-law said is right, there are indeed many soldiers who know that their father-in-law was in a plan, lost their soldiers, and almost died. Although the child had already sent someone down to appease them, ......"
But with little success, the morale of the soldiers is still low. I'm afraid it's hard to siege the city in the near future, right? ”
There is no need to ask, Qi Kun will know after thinking about it. The main general has been tricked, doesn't it mean that the main general is inferior to the enemy army, which is a considerable blow to the soldiers.
"The immediate priority is to appease the morale of the army, and then fight a good victory. Raising morale again is the best policy! ”
"But father-in-law, this city is impregnable, and the morale is low at the moment, how can we win?"
Chen Qu smiled bitterly and asked Qi Kun.
"Who said we had to attack the city?"
"Don't siege?"
Chen Qu blinked his eyes, not understanding what Qi Kun meant.
"Strange Bird, my nickname! Have you ever seen a bird that flies to someone's house to hunt? I'm going to swallow all the troops of the Northern Army outside! ”
