"General, the Wu clan seems to have withdrawn from the army. After hearing the sound of war drums from the valley mouth, Tao Jiren turned his head to look at Ji Ge and said with relief.

Ji Ge pursed her thin lips and nodded, "I heard you." ”

"It's a good thing for us that the Wu Clan has withdrawn from the army, but why is the general's expression still so solemn?" Tao Jirenhu asked.

"Two hours earlier than I expected. Ji Ge said in a calm voice, but his brows were slightly furrowed.

"It may be that the fighting on the front line is too fierce, and the casualties on the Wu Clan's side have far exceeded expectations, so we have to withdraw and report the battle situation to the battalion first. Tao Jiren rubbed his chin and guessed.

Ji Ge nodded slightly when he heard this, and said, "Naturally, this possibility is not ruled out. ”

Of course, there is still the second half of Ji Ge that did not say it, since the Wu clan has suffered heavy casualties, how much better can their side be.

Aren't the so-called casualties all interchangeable?

"General, is there something that the general doesn't know whether to ask or not?" Tao Jiren's expression showed a little hesitation, and he lowered his head and said.

Ji Ge turned around when he heard this, and he rarely saw a Tao Jiren with such a posture.

As the commander of the Tiger Battalion, Tao Jiren has always been known for his outspokenness on the Great Wall of Lishan, and such a hesitant appearance is not to mention Ji Ge, even the soldiers of the Tiger Battalion who have been following him are difficult to see.

"It's just the two of us, so there's nothing to ask and not to ask. Ji Ge said in a warm voice.

"Today is the second day we have entered the mouth of the gourd, and it stands to reason that since we first entered the valley, the general should have asked for reinforcements from the side of the Great Wall, and according to the ability of the soldiers of the Great Wall to run, its vanguard should be able to arrive here before sunset today. Tao Jiren's expression was dark and uncertain, his eyes were deep, and he said as if he were looking at a pool.

"What I want to ask now is whether the general has sent the message of the request for help back to the Great Wall. Speaking of which, Tao Jiren asked with a torch in his eyes.

Ji Ge didn't rush to speak after hearing this rather heavy question.

"Is there already reinforcements coming from the side of the Lishan Great Wall towards Chidi?" Hearing that the general did not respond to him, Tao Jiren's tone became a little heavier and asked.

"Somebody will send everything that happened here back to the Lishan Great Wall. Finally, under Tao Jiren's "forced questioning", Ji Ge finally spoke up: "It's just that the person is not me." ”

"In that case, have troops been sent to the Lishan Great Wall to reinforce it?" Tao Jiren continued to ask.

This matter is not only what he wants to know, but also the entire Wei Wushu soldiers who are fighting at the mouth of the gourd.

Ji Ge pondered for a long time, and finally "compromised" under Tao Jiren's hot eyes, "I'm sorry, I can't guarantee you this." ”

"Maybe the reinforcements from the Great Wall have already set off at this time, or..."Ji Ge paused here, "or maybe they are still waiting for a good opportunity, so... I'm so sorry. ”

Tao Jiren smiled bitterly when he heard this, he should have expected such an answer.

Then he waved his hand slightly, shook his head and said, "General, you don't owe me anything, so naturally you don't have to apologize to me." ”

"And the reason why I asked these is not that I am greedy for life and afraid of death, I am a guilty person, so I will die when I die, but those soldiers in the Tiger Camp should have a better home. Tao Jiren's gaze fell on the distance, and he said in a hoarse voice: "It's a little aggrieved to die here." ”

"Don't worry, in the end, it's only me who dies before them. Ji Ge patted Tao Jiren on the shoulder

Head, word by word, promised.

"They're back. As soon as Ji Ge's words landed, Tao Jiren spoke softly.

"But before that, you must be mentally prepared, and don't forget what you promised me, General. Tao Jiren turned to stare at Ji Ge and said in a condensed voice.

Ji Ge nodded slightly, and didn't make a sound again after that.

In the direction of that valley mouth, Xu Tiande, who was covered in blood and scaly wounds, and even had a few places where white bones could be faintly seen, staggered and walked slowly towards Ji Ge with a person on his back.

Ji Ge exhausted his gaze, and vaguely only saw the one-armed and severed hand of the man behind Xu Tiande.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Ge let out a "chuckle" in his heart, and an extremely ominous premonition came to his heart.

Tao Jiren looked at the scattered soldiers behind Xu Tiande, almost all of them were seriously injured, and several captains who didn't seem to be so seriously injured also showed a thick tiredness on their faces.

Even the Taoji people were able to count how many soldiers returned from the front after this great battle.

As far as the eye can see, there are only about a hundred or so people.

Even if it wins, it will only be a pyrrhic victory today.

Or maybe in the current situation where they have no backup, they have already lost so many people in battle.

"Brother Yan, we're going home. Xu Tiande, whose face was covered with blood, glanced behind him lightly, and muttered in a hoarse and soft voice.

And the man behind him closed his eyes tightly and did not make the slightest reply.

Xu Tiande's eyes were red, because he knew that Brother Yan in his mouth would never hear his shouts.

After hearing the movement of the front-line Mingjin to withdraw troops, Murong Chui and Li Changgeng walked out of their respective tents.

Although they were barely able to move, there was no blood on their faces, and there was a sense of weakness all over their bodies.

"Lord Governor. Li Changgeng was the first to shout.

But Ji Ge seemed to turn a deaf ear and did not respond for a long time.

Originally, Li Changgeng wanted to shout again, but Murong Chui, who was already standing beside him at some point, patted his shoulder lightly, signaling that he didn't have to do it anymore.

Li Changgeng blinked, as if asking why, and then saw Murong Chui gesture to him, and then he followed the latter's gaze, and what caught his eye was Xu Tiande and Yan Huifeng, who had no spiritual power fluctuation behind him.

"Yan Huifeng?" Li Changgeng asked with a solemn expression.

Murong Chui nodded and sighed lightly.

This was the first time he led his troops on an expedition, and it was also the first time he experienced the grief and sorrow of this kind of robe and death.

Li Changgeng only looked slightly moved, and then everything returned to calm.

Because this is not the first time he has led, nor is it the first time he has experienced this kind of life and death parting, of course, there is also the reason why the demon clan was born with a cold temperament.

"You'd better not bother him at this time. Murong Chui said to Li Changgeng in his heart: "To put it mildly, Commander Yan occupies a much more important position in his mind than us, and now that Commander Yan has died on the battlefield, the general will definitely not feel good at this moment." ”

"I understand. Li Changgeng hugged his arms around his chest and said expressionlessly.

It doesn't matter if you're sad, after all, it's human nature, but after being sad, whether it's depressed or willful, these two ends are not the actions of a general, and they are the last thing he wants to see.

Ji Ge, who was stunned, moved his heavy footsteps and walked in the direction of Xu Tiande.

I don't know how many steps have been taken

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

step, and when Ji Ge walked in front of Xu Tiande, he was brought back to his senses by a shout from the latter, "My lord..."

Xu Tiande's lips curled and he was about to speak, but he was interrupted by Ji Ge with a gesture in his eyes.

Then Ji Ge's lips moved, and he said calmly: "I'll come." ”

Xu Tiande bit his lip when he heard this, and gently helped Yan Huifeng behind him to Ji Ge's back.

"Brother Yan, you sleep well, no one will disturb you anymore. Ji Ge, who came to his senses, whispered with red eyes and tears.

Xu Tiande looked at the two people in front of him with blurred eyes, and then his eyes closed slightly, and he fainted in front of him.

Just as he was about to fall, the quick-eyed Murong Chui swept over to Xu Tiande's side and gently supported him.

Murong lowered his head to look at Xu Tiande, who was unconscious beside him, and said in a low voice, "It's hard work." ”

It's just that the people around him have fallen asleep with injuries all over their bodies.

"General. Tao Jiren watched Ji Ge, who was carrying Yan Huifeng, slowly walk towards him, and finally couldn't help shouting after a long time.

Ji Ge, who was called by Tao Jiren, raised his eyes slightly, just glanced at him briefly, and said lightly: "I'm fine." ”

Tao Jiren hummed softly when he heard this, and nodded.

Simply because of Yan Huifeng's death, his temperament did not change greatly.

"I'll take Brother Yan in first. Ji Ge glanced at Tao Jiren and Li Changgeng who was not far away, and said.

So he carried Yan Huifeng into the military tent on his back.

"I'll leave the wounded to the two. Murong Chui helped Xu Tiande, who had fainted, to Tao Jiren, and said in a warm voice.

Tao Jiren glanced at the injuries of different sizes on Xu Tiande's body, pursed his thin lips, nodded and said, "Don't worry, there are me and Li Dutong here." ”

After Murong Chui helped Xu Tiande to leave here, Li Changgeng paced to Tao Jiren's side.

Immediately after they had placed the wounded, the two stood side by side and were silent for a long time.

"How is it?, are the injuries on your body better?" asked Li Changgeng in a deep voice with his arms around his chest.

"It's finally a blessing, and this body has rough skin and thick flesh, and even if you take a few more palms from him, you can't die. Tao Jiren laughed to himself.

After hearing this reply, Li Changgeng did not answer again, he was already taciturn and not good at communicating with people.

"It's been two days since the full count. Tao Jiren said coldly.

"Today's battle is our last battle, but I think the patience of the Wu Clan is almost exhausted, and it is estimated that tomorrow they will be ruined. Li Changgeng nodded, and said indifferently.

"If we can't survive tomorrow..."Li Changgeng turned his head to look at Tao Jiren and said in a low voice.

"Rest assured, we'll get through it. Tao Jiren rubbed his hands together and swore solemnly.

"Okay, if we can get through it, I'll burn yellow paper with you when we get back to the Great Wall. Li Changgeng smiled loudly and said heroically.

Tao Jiren smiled when he heard this, "Then am I considered a high climber?"

You must know that Li Changgeng's life experience is not simple for him.

"That's not a good idea. Li Changgeng said with a smile.

"Yes, somewhat. Tao Jiren smiled in return.

There are people in this world who are not brothers but are better than brothers, and there are people who do not drink the cup until they die

The joy of the dream.
