Chapter 218: The End of the Road (11)

At this time, Li Anping was worried about the future of the army, and in his opinion, Ruan Chengjiang, as the supreme commander of this army, made such a low-level judgment and issued such a clumsy order, so that the army that could already jump out of the encirclement stopped, waited for a so-called descendant army to come to rendezvous, and then retreated together, which was simply self-defeating. "Eight" "Eight" read "book, .2 ■ ⊥

He stood on a small hill and looked down at the army hidden in the darkness, just between the dense forests of this mountainous area, the army of more than 20,000 people was waiting here, because they received an order to hide in place, this order made those junior officers feel inexplicable, unable to understand the military intentions of the military district command, confused eyes looked at the dark sky, fortunately, it was the end of the month, the stars fell for a long time, obscure, there was no moonlight in the sky, such a night, the bombers of the government air force did not have the unscrupulous during the day, From time to time, two or three bombers volleyed into the air, dropping a few bombs indiscriminately to show their existence, maintain air deterrence, and delay the pace of the army.

Looking at the vast and dim earth, Li Anping could even hear the low and long breathing of the soldiers, and a frightening illusion suddenly appeared in his mind, he saw the fire in front of him, the explosions continued, the soldiers fled in all directions, but could not find a place to hide, they were swallowed by the relentless fire one by one, the corpses were all over the field, and the sound of mourning was unbearable and miserable.

His heart suddenly hit a spirit, he was covered in cold sweat, and he wiped a handful of sweat beads rolling down from the corners of his forehead, and a voice rose from the bottom of his heart: No, I must stop this scene and save these tens of thousands of lives.

He turned around quickly, prepared to walk down the hill, and asked Ruan Chengjiang to explain the crisis that the army might face at present, so that he could change his mind, and at least let the army immediately retreat to the city of Haiyang, defend by the city, and have a smooth line of communication as a guarantee, which can ensure that the rear road of the army is safe, and it can withdraw to Quang Binh at any time.

But when he turned around, he suddenly found a person standing in the dark, which startled him, only to see that the person looked at him with compassion, and his whole body was full of coldness, like a ghost in the dark.

"Who?" Li Anping shouted in a low voice, and his hand unconsciously pressed on the holster.

"Chief of Staff Lai, it's me, Ruan Shulin." The dark shadow replied with a pretended ease.

"Oh, it's Director Ruan." Li Anping raised his hand and put it down.

Ruan Shulin obviously didn't mean to let him go, blocked the way down the mountain, took a few steps, and arrived in front of Li Anping, turned his face to look down the mountain, and sighed worriedly: "Chief of Staff Li, the army is in danger!" After that, his face was full of worries and his heart was heavy.

"Director Ruan, you can also see that I am about to go to the general, state the interests, and be sure to ask him to change the order, let the army set off immediately, retreat in the direction of Hai Duong, and when I get to Hai Duong, build fortifications, and then try to meet the Lang Son Division, I don't believe that Huang Wentao dares to risk the disapproval of the world and send the air force to bomb Hai Duong City. Ruan, I'm worried that one person won't be able to convince the general, just right, you and I have the same heart, when we go together to admonish the general, we can't let the army stay here, and watch the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers be lost! Li Anping was straightforward and poured out his thoughts directly.

Ruan Shulin snorted coldly: "Hmph, Chief of Staff Li, do you think this is useful?" With his usual strong personality, will he listen to you? It's useless. ”

"But... How do you know if you don't give it a try! Do you really want to see these brave soldiers die here? When Li Anping said this, the tone in his mouth was weak, he and Ruan Shulin had followed Ruan Chengjiang for many years, and knew him well, he had always been stubborn, arbitrary, and did his own thing, always showing his domineering and status as the master of power.

"Chief of Staff Li, I know that the following heroic soldiers are all elite soldiers trained by you with countless painstaking efforts, you can't bear to let them die here, this time the general dragged us to launch this military coup, from the current point of view, there is no possibility of success, the army is defeated, you and I are uncertain, he made such a stupid decision, when the army is trapped, it is the end of the day we wait, whether to be captured, or to find another way to survive, it is all in your thoughts...."Ruan Shulin said this, and did not continue, Yin Owl's eyes stared at Li Anping.

Li Anping was suddenly shocked in his heart, at this moment the meaning of Ruan Shulin's words was already obvious, but he was Ruan Chengjiang's most trusted intelligence director, the head of the secret service, he said such a thing to test himself or really had this intention, Li Anping was not sure for a while, he looked at Ruan Shulin suspiciously, stunned, and didn't know how to answer his mouth.

In the dark, although Ruan Shulin couldn't fully see the expression on Li Anping's face, he was already good at figuring out people's hearts, observing words and feelings, and when he saw it, he immediately saw through Li Anping's thoughts.

"Chief of Staff Li, you and I were both coerced to participate in this incident, and now, Ruan someone's momentum has gone, and he has to pull so many brothers to back him up, you and I don't think about my own lives, but also for the sake of the tens of thousands of brothers below, save them to death, save people's lives, and win the seventh-level floating slaughter, not to mention these tens of thousands of people, such a great merit is enough to be remembered for centuries and go down in history!"

Ruan Shulin paused, and then said: "Before, you and I have tampered with a military order in order to save the people from fire and water, once it is revealed, it is a capital crime, and for such a lone husband, careerist, traitorous party and rebellion, now that he is gone, why do you want us to be buried together..."

Ruan Shulin was silent again, and at this time, Li Anping had already affirmed that Ruan Shulin was not here to test himself, but really wanted to turn against the water, intending to turn against his old master Ruan Chengjiang, as for whether he really had great compassion, whether he wanted to save these tens of thousands of troops to death, or wanted to save his life, it didn't matter.

For people like Ruan Shulin, Li Anping still knows very well, he knows that this person is ruthless, and now he comes to discuss with him and confides his thoughts to himself, then he will definitely have a back hand, once he flatly refuses, maybe somewhere in the dark, a fatal bullet will be fired, and he will inexplicably bury his life.

"Then what is Director Ruan going to do?" Now, Li Anping has no choice but to take the trick.

Seeing him say this, the corners of Ruan Shulin's mouth finally showed a hint of a smile, and he said in a low voice: "For today's plan, you and I will work together, you are responsible for controlling the command of the command and the troops, controlling the troops under the ministries, preventing mutiny in the troops, and we will take action, arrest Ruan Chengjiang, and take him out of the army, and then you will give orders, send people to contact the government, give up resistance, and put all the blame on Ruan Chengjiang and a few of his hardcore subordinates. Even if it saves the country from danger, it can also go down in history. ”

The twilight was deep, and the two whispered and discussed the plan.
