One disciple immediately asked, "What task?"

Tie Kaishan waved his hand: "Everyone go back first, and I'll tell you after the enemy is repulsed." ”

Seeing that everyone was a little unconvinced, he said in a deep voice: "There is no joke in the army! Now I don't have time to talk to you in detail, so let's go back first." ”

The words have been said to this point, and everyone can't say anything more, so they have to go back to the barracks with a belly full of fire.

Listening to the sound of fighting in the distance, all the disciples sat peacefully, all of them looked anxious, and some even sighed.

In this torment-like torment, finally, Dongfang began to turn slightly white.

Maybe it was because they knew that there was no hope of success, or maybe for other reasons, the demon army finally retreated.

Listening to the sound that gradually stopped outside, many people secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and said that it was finally over......

When the sky was bright, the number of casualties was counted, and the number of casualties was doubled after a night of fighting, with more than 10,000 dead and doubled. And the demon clan is almost equal to the human race, and this result is within Tie Kaishan's expectations.

Although in terms of single combat power, the demon race is higher than the human race, but this time, it occupies the advantage of the pass and is condescending. Second, Tie Kaishan commanded properly, and the officers and men of the three armies fought hard and forgot to die.

Of course, the most important thing is that the army has not been really affected, if Tie Kaishan is really killed by the shadow assassins, then, without the commander, no matter how well-trained and desperately kills the enemy, it is difficult to ensure that the army will not be disorganized and demoralized, and finally the opponent will break through the defense line and collapse for thousands of miles.

Therefore, the commander of the three armies is the backbone of the soldiers and the soul of an army.

Half a day later, the battlefield was cleaned up, and Tie Kaishan discussed countermeasures with Yuan Zhenghao and other generals in the tent until dark.

After dinner, it was another day when the stars and moon hung in the night sky.

Dao Yuan and other disciples were resting in the barracks, when the door curtain was lifted, Tie Kaishan's calm figure walked in, followed by Yuan Zhenghao and Gu Chengfei.

Motioning for everyone to sit down, Tie Kaishan's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and he was silent for a long time before he said: "You may be very strange, the demon clan occupies my border city and attacks my pass, why do I just stand still and defend passively, but I don't say that I will rush to kill on the battlefield, regain the lost territory, and avenge the dead soldiers, right?"

He smiled bitterly and continued: "Actually, it's not that I don't want to, but I can't, or I haven't had a good time yet. The strength of the demon clan is very strong, and the combat power of individual soldiers is far superior to ours, the so-called killing of a thousand, self-damage of eight hundred, even if I rely on the changes in the battle formation and the sophistication of the equipment, I can't guarantee that the soldiers will not be killed or injured......"

"As the head of an army, my responsibility is to protect the territory and resist foreign aggression, but the first thing I have to do is to put the lives of my soldiers at risk, and a general who ignores the lives of his subordinates is not only not a good person, nor a good general, let alone a competent general!"

"The ancients said that once it will be successful, ten thousand bones will wither. Although I Tie Kaishan is not a saint and gentleman, I have exchanged the lives of countless soldiers for glory and status, and I can't do it if I ask myself, and I don't bother to do it!"

"But since the other party made a move today, then we can't help but continue, this is the responsibility of a soldier, and it is the courage and arrogance that a soldier should have!"

"It is true that in every war, no matter how big or small, there are always people who die or are maimed, and their families may be torn apart, and their parents, wives and children will be heartbroken and grief-stricken......"

"However, this is the price we must pay! Only by having the courage to fight can we survive in this cruel world, survive better, for the sake of our beloved, for the beauty we must protect, each of us must have no hesitation!

Most of the disciples are not experienced in the world, and they have never even thought about these things, and after listening to Tie Kaishan's words at this moment, they can't help but be moved by it, and their hearts are shocked.

It turns out that our usually stable and happy life is actually obtained by such a group of soldiers who seem to be humble, but are actually incomparably great, at an extremely heavy price!

Thanks to the fact that we are still intriguing and fighting over some trivial things on weekdays, and fighting for some small profits, we are even innocent ......! Compared with these iron-blooded warriors, we are really ......

Alas!

Everyone felt a sense of shame in their hearts, and at the same time, they were deeply grateful and admired by all the soldiers guarding the border.

Tie Kaishan paused for a moment, his eyes showed endless pain and regret, and said heavily: "This time the demon clan seized the pass, our soldiers can be said to have suffered heavy casualties, with more than 30,000 casualties! In just one battle, we lost so many ...... So, that's the biggest reason why I'm so reluctant to take the initiative. ”

"I'm going to wait! I'm going to wait for a suitable opportunity, a good opportunity to repel the enemy with a single blow, or even wipe out the enemy completely!"

"Of course, they are not stupid enough to give us such an opportunity, so we have to fight for it and create it. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at the crowd and said, "Now, this opportunity has come!"

Lei Luo couldn't help but ask, "What chance?"

Tie Kaishan said: "The reconnaissance soldiers I sent have returned, and after a difficult journey of thousands of miles, they have finally found the location of the grain and grass of the demon army. Logistics supply has always been the lifeblood of an army, and without food, no matter how powerful the army is, it will immediately turn from a tiger to a sheep......"

Lei Luo said: "Dashuai wants to burn the other party's grain and grass, come to the bottom of the kettle, and completely cut off the back road of the demon clan?"

"Yes, that's exactly what it means! Once this plan succeeds, then the demon clan will be self-defeating, and it will greatly reduce the casualties of our soldiers!"

Tie Kaishan nodded, and said: "It's a pity, this is a long way, except for one of the mountain roads that is quite flat, but has been guarded by the demon clan, surrounded by vast mountains, and there are countless mysterious beasts hidden along the way, plus the grain and grass are heavy, the other party guards are strictly prohibited, and the ten soldiers sent to it, only one came back in the end, and he was seriously injured, and one life went to ninety percent ......!"

"They were carefully selected by me from the army of 100,000, and they are really one in a million! But even so, they still couldn't avoid those dangers, and they ended up dead and wounded!"

Dao Yuan asked, "What do you mean, let us do this?"

Tie Kaishan said: "Originally, I didn't plan to let you go, this matter is too dangerous, one mistake, that is, there is no return! The reason why I changed my mind was because I considered that this matter could not be done by the strength of a few people, at least ...... It also takes 40 people to be enough, and the strength of the soldiers in the army is uneven, and it is difficult to take on this important task, and I am also afraid that there are spies planted by the enemy, you should know that the consequences of a false piece of information are absolutely unbearable! Therefore, I can't make up my mind for a long time!"

"Moreover, your skills are much higher than those of the soldiers, and you can also deal with many unexpected accidents, which is very suitable for penetrating into the rear of the enemy and disturbing their morale. ”

He smiled confidently and continued, "The most important thing is that you have been personally inspected by the White Courtyard Master, and you will definitely not be the enemy's spies, so I finally decided to hand over this arduous task to everyone......

Looking at everyone's different looks, Tie Kaishan said: "I'll give you time to think about it, whether to go or not, and answer me early tomorrow morning." After speaking, he smiled faintly and left the barracks with Yuan Zhenghao and the two.

......

After a long time.

Lei Luo was the first to ask, "Everyone, how about this task than killing the enemy head-on?" Since everyone wants to avenge their fellow disciples, now is an opportunity, can everyone tell us what they think?"
