Chapter 152 Stalemate
Highly recommended:
"You ...... Hu ...... "Zhao Zongtong originally wanted to vent first, so that they could feel guilty, and then appease and use it, but as he spoke, he inevitably moved some true anger."
"What to cry about! The little uncle's eyes are injured, and he can't summon tears, you generals, don't think about sharing worries and solving problems for the little uncle, what are you howling here! Shut up! Jiang Mo felt sorry for Zhao Zongtong, and he didn't have a good aura in front of the general who was kneeling down and whimpering.
"Girl......" Zhao Zongtong had just been injured, and his body couldn't support such ups and downs emotionally, and his breathing was a little short.
"Didn't you hear that? Shut up!
Do you also want to be like the Sui Huan outside who is in a different place, helping the Huns assassinate the little uncle! Jiang Mo was furious.
"The last general will never have this intention, please discern the general!" Secretly communicating with foreign enemies is a big crime of the nine clans, not to mention that although these generals are stupid for a while, they are all men with strong blood, how could they do such a shameless thing, everyone immediately tried to show their innocence.
"If not, shut up! Whoever recruits the little uncle to be angry again, I, Jiang Mo, will kill him as a king! Jiang Mo looked angry and domineering.
"Uh......" A few generals who were still guilty just now, and some of them were choked with tears, were also suppressed.
"Little uncle...... Are you alright...... Do you want to call the medic in? After scolding the generals, Jiang Mo turned his head again and asked Zhao Zongtong carefully.
"Whew...... Girl...... You are really much stronger than ordinary men......" Jiang Mo scolded Zhao Zongtong's heart, and Zhao Zongtong patted her hand and smiled.
Although "Little Uncle ......" was praised, Jiang Mo couldn't be happy at all now, and helped Zhao Zongtong to be smooth.
"Whew...... And you have seen it...... General Ben's eyes were afraid that they would not be better for a while, but now they ...... The Huns got the news and intended to sneak attack, and they were already on their way. Zhao Zongtong finally returned to the topic.
"What?" Several generals never expected such a show, and they were all frightened.
"Hmph...... can be so fast, except for internal and external collusion, this general can't think of the second possibility, you ......" Zhao Zongtong paused deliberately.
"Admiral, what do you mean...... It was Sui Huan who colluded with the Huns and secretly attacked the general, causing you to be injured and blind, just now Sui Huan came to confirm your situation, okay, so that they can send a message to the Huns, so that they can take advantage of the chaos to enter, so as to catch us off guard? "The generals' brains are finally back.
"Hmph, you guys aren't too stupid." Zhao Zongtong sneered.
"This, that...... It's shameful that the last general was bewitched by him as a traitor, general, you should still punish me and wait, otherwise, the last general will no longer have the face to live in the army. The generals finally knew what they had just done, and they demanded an account.
"Humph! It's easy to die, but as soldiers, you can only die on the battlefield if you want to die. Zhao Zongtong said coldly.
"Guilty of meritorious service?" Knowing that they had committed heinous crimes, several generals were upright people, and they only thought about apologizing with death, but they didn't dare to expect that the generals would give them the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.
"What? Do you not want to, or do you not dare? Zhao Zongtong heard everyone's hesitation.
"No, general, of course we are willing, as a soldier, we should protect our family and defend the country, we are not afraid, but we are ...... We are already a mortal criminal, and we dare not expect the general to give me the opportunity to make meritorious contributions to such a mortal crime......" Several generals looked burned.
"When a soldier dies on the battlefield, that's what he deserves. Although you have disappointed General Ben, General Ben has decided to give you a chance.
Listen, be sure to send the Huns who dare to invade me back to my hometown! Otherwise...... Punishment for several crimes! It will be severely punished by military law! Zhao Zongtong said word by word, very harsh.
"Yes! Thank you for your trust, and the general will live up to his mission! "The chance to save your life, even if you die on the battlefield, is better than being sentenced for rebellion, after all, a soldier is the most important honor, and all generals dare not have any slack, and immediately kowtow and swear.
"Well, I hope you won't disappoint General Ben again this time." What Zhao Zongtong wants is that they are so eager to atone for their sins, and they are in a state of ruin.
"Please rest assured, if you don't repel the Huns, we will never come back alive!" Several generals are also heroic.
"Good! If you want to have your spirit, Zhu Sheng took out the things that General Ben ordered you to write and handed them them one by one. Zhao Zongtong seems to have been prepared.
"Yes." Zhu Sheng took out five envelopes from the box and handed them to the five generals one by one according to the names on them.
"This is your task, who is in front and who is behind, who defends, who attacks, when, where and what troops, this general has already listed, just waiting for your good news." Zhao Zongtong got up and gave the order.
"Yes, the last general commands!" Several generals immediately clenched their fists.
"Hurry down and arrange, and you're ready to go!" Zhao Zongtong waved his hand.
"The last general obeys!" Several generals clasped their fists and saluted and immediately withdrew.
"Hu ......" inside the tent, everyone retreated, and Zhao Zongtong finally sat on the bed without physical strength.
"Little uncle!" Jiang Mo supported him behind and held him in his arms.
"Admiral?" Zhu Sheng and Bai You also looked nervous.
"Whew...... Call...... Uh...... "The arrow wound on Zhao Zongtong's shoulder armor oozes blood again.
"Little uncle! Quick, call the medic in, quick! Jiang Mo looked flustered, and hurriedly asked Bai You to call the military doctor.
Zhao Zongtong was furious, and the arrow wound that had finally stopped the bleeding was broken by him again, and the military doctor was busy for a while, so he reluctantly re-treated the wound.
Zhu Sheng and Bai You supported Zhao Zongtong, who was pale, and lay back again.
Jiang Mo and Zhao Chaoxuan had a heart, and they didn't dare to go anywhere, but they just obediently stayed by Zhao Zongtong's side, keeping their eyes red.
It didn't take long for the sky to dawn, and I stayed up with them all night.
War drums sounded outside, and the urgency was exciting, Jiang Mo and Zhao Chaoxuan had never seen such a crisis scene, and they were a little uneasy in their hearts.
And Zhu Shu and Bai You were also unstable because they knew that this was a vicious battle.
Everyone was waiting for news from outside.
Especially Zhao Zongtong, even if he was injured and weak, he still couldn't sit still, and anxiously paced in the inner tent, waiting for news from the front line.
Until almost the afternoon, the news from the front was still stale.
Although it was not a problem for those generals to resist the Huns, Zhao Zongtong, who had just experienced a rebellion, was still faintly uneasy in his heart.
If the news in the afternoon has made people anxious, the latest report at this moment has made everyone even more restless.
In the end, everyone underestimated the strength of the Xiongnu, and also underestimated the influence of Zhao Zongtong, a general, in the army.
The Xiongnu learned smartly this time, and even learned to use the strategy of attacking the heart, spreading the news that Zhao Zongtong was seriously injured, which made the soldiers panic, and several generals could not be appeased, and their morale was greatly reduced, and there were faint traces of defeat and retreat.
The news was transmitted back to the internal account, and Zhao Zongtong would not be able to sit still.
"Admiral! Never! You are like this, you can't meet the enemy at all, please think twice! Hearing that the army's heart was shaking, and the Huns were approaching again and again, Zhao Zongtong was in turmoil, and he immediately put on his battle robe again and went into battle to meet the enemy.
But he is like this, his shoulder is injured, his eyes are blind, and it is difficult to even walk, how can he return to the battlefield, everyone tries their best to dissuade him.
"Yes, little uncle, don't be impulsive, don't talk about going into battle to kill the enemy now, it's a problem to even go out, you must not be impulsive!" Zhao Chaoxuan also blocked.
"Whew...... Hu ...... "Zhao Zongtong doesn't know, he is a waste now, but even so, if he doesn't come out, the rumors will inevitably spread all over the army, and then the army will be disheartened, and then let the Huns take advantage of the weakness to enter, and the frontier will be ruined again."
As a general guarding the frontier, how can Zhao Zongtong sit idly by, even if he dies, he has to protect his soldiers and his people!
No one can stop him! Zhao Zongtong was really angry.
"Little uncle! You calm down! Now it's just a matter of rumors, as long as the rumors are solved and the morale of the army is maintained, then all problems can be solved, and you don't need to be sent to death like this now! It's not worth it, it's not worth it!
Calm down, I, I have a way to solve the urgent problem now. Jiang Mo stepped forward and pressed Zhao Zongtong's hand stiffly.
"What do you do?" Zhao Zongtong held Jiang Mo's hand tightly.
"The Huns outside want to disturb the hearts of the army with rumors, so that they can surrender the soldiers without a fight, and the soldiers of our army have only not seen you for a long time, so they have many doubts, as long as you appear, then these rumors will definitely be self-defeating." Jiang Mo said.
"Jiang Er! Little uncle is like this, he can't get out at all, you, why do you still say that! Zhao Chaoxuan immediately objected.
"Yes, second master, how did the admiral appear like this?" Zhu Xi and Bai You also looked puzzled.
"I only said that the admiral would appear, but I didn't say that it must be the little uncle who appeared." Jiang Mo raised his eyebrows and said.
"Shhh...... What do you mean? Zhao Chaoxuan was stunned, Zhu Sheng and Bai You also frowned, and Zhao Zongtong was even more stunned.
