Chapter Thirty-Nine—The Wonder of the Soul (Part II)
At dusk, a young general in white armor climbed down a mountain stream that was not too high, and his figure alone looked particularly lonely in the light of the fiery sunset, and his handsome face was accompanied by a look of disappointment and some exasperation.
The young general, dressed in white armor, stepped on the setting sun and returned to the camp below the mountain stream. The camp was built against a mountain wall, and this position was an easy position to defend and difficult to attack, and the camp was very tightly packed. However, when the young general in white armor returned to the camp, the few soldiers patrolling the camp still felt a sense of being overstretched. Although the camp was quite large, there were not many troops in this camp, only 5,000 people.
"See General Chen Jie! General, you're back" When the young general, dressed in white armor and wearing a white helmet on his head and a white fox skin lining the armor, returned to the camp, two soldiers with spears on both sides of the camp bowed down to greet him.
This army stationed on the edge of the mountain stream was the 5,000 troops led by General Chen Jie, the governor of Ruocheng, who had held this important road in advance. It's just that how can these 5,000 troops be able to withstand the elite troops of the upcoming 50,000 Feng Battle Meeting. At this time, Chen Jie had no confidence in his heart at all.
General Chen Jie had a lot of thoughts in his heart, so he could only nod lightly, his mind was not very good now, he had been there for the past two days studying what could be done with these terrains. However, although such terrain is favorable to them, it is only that the disparity in strength is too great, even General Chen Jie, who is handy in commanding the army and has very strong military talents, has some options.
Chen Jie sighed softly, he was about to turn around and go back to his camp to rest for a while, but behind Chen Jie came a message from two soldiers guarding the city gate, "General, a young man in a golden robe and a girl in a plain long skirt came to you, saying that there was something to find you, we can only say that you are not there, they are waiting for you now"
The two soldiers still looked a little weak when they spoke, they knew that their general must not have found any good opportunity to fight against the upcoming 50,000 troops, and Chen Jie's mood must not be very good. They are rashly saying such things now, but they are empty in their hearts, just because they are afraid that Chen Jie will be angry together and anger the two of them.
However, the trembling words of these two soldiers holding spears and wearing ordinary white armor made Chen Jie come to the truth, Chen Jie was very curious about who the people who dared to come to him now? It sounded that they were still very young, and they were only a teenager and a girl, which made Chen Jie even more curious. I want to meet this teenager and a girl.
"Where are they waiting for me?" Chen Jie thought for a moment and asked in a deep voice.
The two soldiers' faces were slightly stunned, they didn't expect that Chen Jie would be willing to meet these two young men and girls who volunteered to claim that they had a strategy to break the enemy. The two of them looked at Sister Chen's expression, and could only say silently: "General Yu, we let the two of them wait for you in your tent."
The soldiers themselves should not make such a decision, especially since it is a very dangerous thing to let strangers into the camp of the commander-in-chief. It's just that Chen Jie is not in a good mood now, and he didn't have time to pay attention to these things, he just secretly wrote down this matter in his heart. So he hurried back to his tent.
The tent in which Chen Jie lived was not the most luxurious area of the camp, he just lived in an ordinary tent on the right and left. When Chen Jie lifted the fur of his tent, he saw a young girl anxiously wandering inside, and then saw the figure of a young man with a slightly solemn face.
This innocent girl with a frank expression was wearing a tight plain white dress, and Chen Jie suddenly saw the expression of his sister from her face. Seeing this girl, Chen Jie couldn't help but be attracted by the memories, how much effort did Chen Jie have made over the years, and the original intention was to find his sister?
Almost involuntarily, Chen Jie had two more good feelings in his heart for the girl in white in front of him, and then he looked at the young man in a golden round-necked robe who was a little farther away from him, this young man's eyes were a little solemn, his expression was not as calm and indifferent as the girl in white beside him, but he looked a little more stable. However, such an expression is difficult for people to see at first sight, and they feel a little comfortable. Chen Jie is naturally no exception.
Before Chen Jie could ask, the girl had already gently dragged the young man wearing a golden pure flower robe beside her, and the two stood side by side in front of Chen Jie, the girl smiled, bowed down and said, "The little woman Feng Shanshan pays a visit to Governor Chen Jie."
"Xiaomin Lu Deng meets Governor Chen Jie" The young man next to him was a little reluctant to report his identity under the repeated grabbing and dragging of the girl in white, but the word Lu Deng still hit Chen Jie's heart like a heavy hammer. Chen Jie couldn't help but feel a secret pang in his heart, he thought of a reason that he didn't want to think of, this Lu Deng seemed to be the eldest son of Lu Yi, the head of the Lu family he had arrested earlier.
After figuring out such a section, Chen Jie also knew why the young man who appeared in front of him now had such a serious expression. This time the rebellion of the Lu family, it seems that the son of the head of the Lu Yi family did not participate. But no matter what, Lu Deng is Lu Yi's eldest son after all, so it's no wonder he made such an expression.
Chen Jie asked with some confusion: "Welcome, why don't you two young children go to Ruocheng for refuge, but come to the dangerous front line here?" Chen Jie thought about it, but still didn't ask them if they came here because of something about the Lu family, even if the Lu family was the one who presided over the army to suppress the counterinsurgency, Lu Yi and the family members in the mansion where the Lu family was also arrested by Chen Jie himself. It's just that now he has realized that there must be something unusual about the two children in front of him coming to find himself at this time.
The two people who came were none other than Feng Shanshan and Lu Deng, who came to Huicheng to look for "Jian" after leaving Lu Pingjue's Mansion last time, although the two of them came to Huicheng but did not find this "Jian" figure, but the two of them inadvertently received Gao Hanyue's flying pigeon biography. In it, Feng Shanshan knew the fact that the Feng Kingdom was about to invade in advance, and at the same time, Feng Shanshan also knew that Gao Hanyue and Feng Yuchong had gone to Shengcheng. Moreover, Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue are the most important part of Qi State's counterattack against the feudal country, which makes Feng Shanshan's own heart itch. She also wanted to do something, just like her brother and sister. So, she took Lu Deng back to Ruocheng, and happened to encounter the scene of Chen Jie taking his elite cavalry to Huicheng.
Even though Lu Deng had some pimples in his heart, after all, it was his family and his father who rebelled, and his emotions in his heart were actually very complicated. Lu Deng really couldn't choose such a thing, even though Feng Shanshan had been tirelessly explaining to Lu Deng, Lu Deng still couldn't understand it in his heart. If Feng Shanshan hadn't understood Lu Deng, she would have beaten Lu Deng again.
Feng Shanshan dragged Lu Deng with her, not only because she had some methods in her heart that might be able to break the enemy, but also because she wanted to find out what kind of consciousness Chen Jie, the leader who presided over the annihilation of the Lu family's counterinsurgency, was to Lu Deng, and whether she wanted to take down Lu Deng. Feng Shanshan didn't expect it wrong, Chen Jie's performance was also the shock on Chen Jie's face when he heard Lu Deng's true identity.
Fortunately, Chen Jie knew more or less about the Lu family's son, Lu Deng, who was not involved in the rebellion of the Lu family. He had already left the Lu family before this and followed Feng Shanshan to the city of Hui. Chen Jie now also wanted to hear what possible strategies Feng Shanshan and Lu Deng had to break the enemy, so he didn't dwell too much with Feng Shanshan and Lu Deng, but asked Feng Shanshan first what he could do.
Feng Shanshan saw that Chen Jie did not hold Lu Deng accountable, Feng Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief lightly, straightened her look, and then solemnly expressed her opinion to Chen Jie in front of her, "The current situation is really unfavorable for us, we have always seen a lot of people dragging their families and leaving the border along the way. I am also deeply touched by this, if the general can't win this battle, or retreat to the city to defend, the momentum and courage of the people in the country to resist the feudal country will naturally be attenuated a lot, of course, this time the responsibility on the general's shoulders is naturally not light, in the face of the feudal war will attack together with the army in the south of the feudal country, there is indeed a disparity in military strength. However, what the little woman learned was that the northern Fengchi and Yunpin armies were first loyal to Guangwujun, and secondly, to the current feudal monarch Holy Emperor. And the army in the south of the feudal country has at least about 20,000, and the 20,000 army is also similar to the two armies of Fengchi and Yunpin, both of which are loyal to Guangwujun's army. Although the troops of the Feng War Society are good at fighting, after all, there is still a big contradiction with the army of the southern border of the feudal country, if we can make proper use of this, we may be able to turn the danger into a disaster on the battlefield, only if we win the victory here first, the Qi army in the north against the feudal country can be able to reap the victory."
