The Savage Lady Wants to Kill Me! Reborn on the Path of Cultivation

Chapter 277 The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.

Before Duan Tianyang opened his mouth, Guan Hu said hurriedly: "My Hongxing Army is only a local army, and its combat power is far inferior to that of the Jin Kingdom Army. Now we have to fight against 30,000 enemy troops with only 2,000 of us, and Brother Tian is required to go to the front line in person. This is undoubtedly asking Brother Tian and 2,000 brothers to die. Don't you think this is too much?!"

Gu Jianhong also knew that this was indeed too much to ask, but he was just a communicator, not a decision maker.

He said with a firm look in his eyes: "The country is at a critical juncture of life and death. If everyone is afraid of sacrifice, how can we save the country? The princess has ordered that as long as Lord Duan holds on in the Qinba tribe for two days, she will be able to gain the upper hand in the negotiations. My brothers and I in Linghua Palace will fight side by side with Lord Duan. If we can die for our country, it will be our honor." After that, he bowed deeply to Duan Tianyang.

Xiao Fang immediately stood up to object: "Brother Tian is the commander of our Hongxing Army. Facing the advance of 200,000 rebels, how should we deal with it if Brother Tian is not here? If the Northwest Pass is lost, what is the point of our holding on to the Qinba Tribe?"

At this time, Zhou Baiyuan led his army to attack suddenly, which was something Gu Jianhong had not expected. He frowned and after a long silence, he had to look at Duan Tianyang, waiting for his decision.

Duan Tianyang frowned, quickly weighing the pros and cons of all this in his mind.

The request made by Yi Shuirou was not intentionally difficult, but a profound insight into the situation.

Just as she said, if she could lead the 2,000 soldiers of the Qinba tribe and successfully resist the 30,000 troops of the Jin Kingdom, then her side would become famous in one battle and the tribes of the Western Fan Kingdom would be in awe. Even if they could not make them stand on the side of the Divine Realm, they could ensure that they would not side with the Jin Kingdom.

On the other hand, the 200,000-strong army led by Zhou Baiyuan is indeed a major threat. If Chi Xun can persuade Fang Quan to attack the lairs of the other two rebel forces and force them to return for rescue, then the pressure faced by their side as the defenders when dealing with the rebels led by Zhou Baiyuan will be greatly reduced.

Duan Tianyang paced in the hall, silently weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

At this time, Gu Jianhong looked at him deeply and suggested: "Master Duan, if you feel embarrassed, I am willing to take over the 2,000 troops of the Qinba tribe. My Linghua Palace will fight side by side with them and fight the enemy to the death."

As soon as Gu Jianhong finished speaking, Duan Tianyang stopped and turned to look at him, with a thoughtful gleam in his eyes, as if he was considering the feasibility of this suggestion.

Everyone else present showed a look of joy. As long as Brother Tian didn't take the risk, it would be their own choice if the people in Linghua Palace wanted to destroy themselves.

Unfortunately, more than 2,000 of their own brothers had to sacrifice their lives with them.

Duan Tianyang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked, "Why did the princess say that our army only needs to hold out in the Qinba tribe for two days?"

Gu Jianhong responded, "Because the Fan people only gave the Jin Kingdom two days to fight in the Western Fan territory, and the Jin Kingdom also promised the Western Fan Kingdom that if the war was fruitless after two days, the Jin army would withdraw to the border between the two countries."

After listening to this, Duan Tianyang nodded and whispered as if he had realized something: "I understand."

Then he said without hesitation: "In that case, I will go."

When these words were spoken, everyone present, including Gu Jianhong and others from Linghua Palace, were shocked.

They had never expected that Duan Tianyang had sufficient reasons to refuse, but still chose to agree. This was truly unbelievable.

Guan Hu and others were extremely anxious and advised: "Brother Tian, ​​you must not take any risks!"

"Sir, this battle is very dangerous, please think twice!"

Duan Tianyang knew that this trip to Xifan would be a life-or-death experience, but if he managed to hold on by chance, the benefits he would gain would be enormous...

As the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish...

What's more, among the two thousand troops stationed in the Qinba tribe, there were also Zhang Tao and Zhu Wu. Duan Tianyang could not bear to see them sacrifice in vain.

He was silent for a long time, and finally said solemnly: "The two thousand warriors who are holding on in the Qinba tribe are all our brothers. I can either withdraw them safely back to the border, or fight side by side with them and overcome the difficulties of life and death together. I cannot accept letting them fight alone while I stand by and watch."

"But Brother Tian, ​​this trip is to commit suicide..."

Duan Tianyang's tone was firm and unquestionable: "I have made up my mind, there is no need to discuss this matter further!"

"Brother Tian..."

"If Xifan really stands on the side of Jin, we will be attacked from both sides and will also die. We might as well give it a try and turn a bicycle into a motorcycle. If we can win this battle, we will have nothing to worry about."

Everyone understands the truth, but how can we win with only 2,000 people against 30,000 enemy troops?

Everyone exchanged glances, and after a brief silence, they suddenly said in unison: "Sir (Brother Tian), we are willing to go to the battlefield with you!"

Duan Tianyang frowned and questioned sternly: "If you all follow me, who will guard the house? Are you planning to give all the cities in the Northwest Pass to Zhou Baiyuan? You all stay in the West Pass and just guard the house!"

He decided to go to the Chimba tribe in person, and was unwilling to let anyone present accompany him, which was completely unacceptable to everyone.

Li Jiu was the first to break the silence. He knelt on his knees and said firmly, "Please think twice, sir!"

Then, the others followed suit and pleaded in unison: "Please think twice, sir!"

Duan Tianyang's expression became increasingly gloomy: "What are you doing? Do you want to rebel? Get up!"

However, they remained unmoved, and one of them replied: "If you do not change your decision, we will kneel down and not get up."

Duan Tianyang shouted loudly: "Get up, this is an order!"

Still no one stood up. Duan Tianyang took a deep breath and said firmly but gently, "Okay! Then I will take Jingyuan and Duoer with me. Apart from them, I will not take anyone else with me."

Then, without giving anyone a chance to question him, he announced bluntly: "While I am away, Xiao Fang will be the commander-in-chief of the Hongxing Army, and Guan Hu and Zhao Xuan will be the deputy commanders."

Then, he walked to Xiao Fang's side, firmly helped him up, his eyes flashing with a deep light, and warned: "Xiao Fang, your body has just recovered, and you must not take the battlefield lightly. You lack experience in commanding troops, but Zhao Xuan is very experienced in this regard. When fighting with the enemy, you must listen to his advice, understand?"

When Xiao Fang heard this, tears welled up in his eyes.

He knew very well that Duan Tianyang's journey was full of dangers and the possibility of his survival was extremely small. This might be the last time they would see each other.

He held Duan Tianyang's hand tightly, and said in a choked voice: "Brother Tian, ​​do you still remember our original agreement? You said that as long as I have you, I will have you. If you can return safely from this battle, we will drink wine together in Xiguan and talk about life; if Brother Tian encounters an accident, I, Xiao Fangding, will go to Xifan and die with you!"
