Chapter 92 92. Lieutenant General

This used to be hell!

This description is really not an exaggeration at all.

The time of the attack here was about the same as the time when the county town guarded by Monk Yunqing was attacked. That is to say, the place has been in dire straits for a long time, but it has not been helped.

But the situation here is different from that in that small county.

The small country bordering here has always been ambitious, so the defense here has always been stricter, and there are more border guards stationed here.

Soldiers here are also better psychologically experienced.

This means that they can hold out for a short time.

But it's just hard work.

It was an effort to resist at the expense of human life, not only suffered heavy casualties, but was often beaten to the door of the house.

However, not all monster races have special abilities, and there are very few monster races that can mobilize the power of the five elements.

The strength of the Yaozu will decline when they maintain their human form.

At the beginning of the war, the Yaozu were not strong, and they were ordered not to show their original shape, so they failed to break through this place in one fell swoop.

The guard quickly saw the situation and calmed down, the soldiers were no longer in a mess, and the situation was better again.

But this "better" was quickly broken.

The Yaozu began to fight in their original form, and soldiers would naturally be afraid of these huge creatures with strange looks.

Once there is fear and the morale of the army is unstable, this battle is fought... It can be said that they are retreating steadily.

These monster races have no special abilities, but after transforming into their original form, they can already kill many people just by using their huge body to rampage.

There are sacrifices every day, people die every day, no one can resist the Yaozu, and death hangs over this place.

But no one dared to retreat, because behind them was the land where they grew up, and behind them were unarmed relatives. The soldiers all knew that if they retreated, there would not only be mountains of corpses and seas of blood on the battlefield.

The young city defender has formulated a new battle plan.

A brutal plan.

"General Lin's plan is very good. Although there are many casualties, as long as no one dies, we can guarantee that we will not fall." The border guard who talked with the deputy general mentioned the young general guarding here, and also mentioned the young general's plan.

"The plan is to ignore the brutality of the demon clan and go to the battlefield every day to wait for death." He said.

When this matter was mentioned, his expression was numb.

A person who can show such a sad and joyless expression must have experienced very bad things.

"What are you talking about? Can this be considered a good plan?" The deputy general couldn't believe it.

"Yes, this is the best plan." The soldier replied, "We found that we only need to stop the enemy army to stop the demon tribe. There should be an agreement between the enemy army and the demon tribe, as long as the enemy army does not enter the city , the monster race will not enter the city."

"It's very easy for the monster race to climb over the city wall, but it's so easy, but they won't do it. What's even more amazing is that the monster race seems to want to push the city wall, but they don't do it themselves, they just let humans do it. Assault the walls."

"The purpose of the monster clan is the city wall?" the lieutenant general asked.

The soldier nodded, "Actually, it's not that the monster race can't attack the city wall, but the monster race's attack is ineffective against the city wall. I have seen with my own eyes that no matter how the monster race attacks, the city wall will not be damaged at all. But human attacks are effective. .”

"Because the enemy army and the demon clan will enter after the city wall is pushed, we have been guarding the wall and not daring it to be attacked. Because the monster clan's attack is ineffective, it is enough to block the enemy army."

Having said that, the lieutenant already understood what was going on.

Since it is necessary to stop the enemy, it must go to the battlefield.

Since it is only necessary to stop the enemy army, it is not possible to stop the Yaozu, so as not to be scattered.

Because human beings themselves can't stop the monster clan, if they deliberately fight against it or hide from it, after the troops are dispersed, they will not even be able to stop the enemy army.

Ignoring the Yaozu, this is the worst way, and it is also the best way known.

Concentrate on dealing with the enemy, even if the Yaozu have already started fighting in our camp, don't worry about him.

Does that sound ironic?

But this is reasonable, because only in this way can the greatest extent be preserved.

The monster clan that can only attack physically can't kill many people at once, and the people who are killed don't resist much, which will make it lose the joy of killing.After losing the enthusiasm to kill, the number of its kills also decreases.

"We know statistically that when we don't fight let it kill, there are fewer casualties than when we resist it, so it's doable and good."

"But how ironic this is! Soldiers don't know when they will bump into the monster clan, and when they bump into it, they have to put down their weapons and don't resist."

"You won't experience such a mood." The soldier stared at the lieutenant and said, "No one is not afraid of death, but what is more terrifying than death is not being able to resist when the enemy is in front of you, and the most numb and painful thing is Knowing that death is near, but accepting it. It's better to have peace of mind."

The lieutenant opened his mouth, but was speechless.

These days, he has truly realized that the mental torment is far greater than the physical pain.

He didn't know what to say, and it took a while to get back to the original topic, "Did it get better after that? What does it have to do with His Royal Highness?"

Now the soldier talked about what Qi Wenliang had done during this time.

First of all, Qi Wenliang sent members of the Wu clan. These people's physical fitness is much higher than ordinary people. They don't join the team to resist the enemy, but they can block the monster clan in a targeted manner.

Although there were not many members of the Wu clan assigned to this place, there were only a dozen or so monster clans here. With them stopping the most devoured monster clan, the number of casualties dropped instantly.

But the people on the battlefield are still precarious, and the corpses can still be lined up in long rows.

Because there was really no manpower to send, Qi Wenliang had to think of other ways.

After that, he designed the formation based on the situation here, which minimized the casualties.

The soldiers in the front row will be attacked by the enemy in the first round, some people will die, and a small number of people in the middle will die, and almost no one in the back row will be injured.

Compared with the beginning, the current situation cannot be better.

The deputy general had to lament Qi Wenliang's resourcefulness.

He was able to design such a suitable formation from such a far away place. He really has seven orifices in his mind, and he can think that ordinary people can't.

"Your Highness did rescue you from hell. I really shouldn't speak ill of him. It was my fault." The lieutenant apologized.

But when the conversation turned around, he said again: "But His Highness is so powerful, shouldn't the sacrifice of the middle level be even more inappropriate? The death of the middle level may have been done on purpose by him, and my words are not considered slander." .”

"It seems that what I said before was all in vain. Why do you think I told you about the monsters rushing into our camp to kill?" After saying this, the soldier shook his head and left.

They had indeed been instructed not to tell the truth directly, and there was only so much he could hint.

The deputy general saw that he was leaving, but he didn't know how to stop him, so he limped back by himself.

Enduring the severe pain and walking a few steps, he had a flash of inspiration.

"Ah! I see!"

"Those monsters who killed people in our camp were not all stopped!"

So there are still casualties in the middle layer.

Because the formation that is enough to stop the enemy is ineffective for monsters, at least for some monsters.

With this direction, the deputy general's progress in finding the truth has been much faster.

Because he's injured now, he didn't go to the front for the next few days.

But he didn't lie down to rest, but climbed up the tower to observe the battle situation.Sometimes, he can still hear some sporadic news.

The enemy army does not come every day, so he actually went up the tower two or three times.

Before returning to the battlefield, he basically restored the truth.

As he thought before, there are indeed monsters who can rush into our camp.

When he was on the tower, he found that some monsters were helping our army. These monsters and the "Wu family members" who "look different" were at the forefront.They blocked almost all the monsters, except for a wild boar monster.

The wild boar demon is fast and has sharp fangs, which can easily pierce the shield armor, and ordinary humans can't even see him.

The Wu clan and our army's Yaozu tried to stop it many times, but they all failed because they were not fast enough.

In this case, he could only follow the young general's previous plan - let him rush into the formation to kill.

And the people in the formation don't need to know what is killing people at all, they just need to maintain the formation to block the enemy.

Although the wild boar demon is fast, it can only kill a small number of people.

It's the best way to stop it without spending a lot of energy.

During the few days that the deputy general was on the tower, he made a new discovery.

Although he couldn't see the wild boar demon with his naked eyes, he could see the situation of the people in the middle layer from a high place, and he could also use this to see the position of the wild boar demon.

He found that the wild boar demon's mind was not very good, because his action line after rushing into the formation was very rigid, almost fixed.

To put it a little more exaggeratedly, "Which position will be attacked" can be calculated in advance.

If the super powerful Wu clan members are placed in these positions, he may be able to catch him, but there are only a dozen of Wu clan members, and they must stop other enemy monster clans, otherwise those monster clans will not be able to control them, and the casualties will be unavoidable. Estimate.

But other people couldn't stop the wild boar demon's attack in these positions.

That is to say... "Which position will die" can be calculated in advance.

This is a cruel thing.

Even in the forefront, even in the face of extreme danger, people have hope of life.

As long as you are flexible enough, or know the fighting skills, or have good luck, you may survive.

But ordinary people assigned to these positions are bound to die without a chance.

In other words, the person who arranges the positions of the soldiers is deciding the death list.

Everyone is a brother who lives and dies together on the battlefield. Who wants to put his brother on the death list?

However, at this desperate time, the lieutenant general and his party arrived.

They are sinners to a certain extent, they were the first to refuse to save them, so it is not difficult to treat them now.

So, putting them on the death list is the best option.

Next, just keep it a secret.

These sinners died without knowing how they died.

The lieutenant general who pieced together the truth was furious. He couldn't believe that his death date had already been set.

He calculated with full of negative emotions, and calculated that his own death date was just a few days later.

"Okay, calm down!" The lieutenant general said to himself, "Until that day, I am safe. I have to prepare enough things first, and then explore the route. I just need to escape before that day."

Thinking of this, he considered whether to tell others.

But after thinking about it, forget it.

After hearing what he said, the border guards probably didn't believe it, and maybe they would turn around and relay his words to others, so that he would be exposed.

Taking a ten thousand step back, even if you believe it, these people should still want to run away. There will be too many people who want to run away, and it will be easy to be exposed.

And maybe there are extreme people who feel humiliated by being placed in a position that must die, and they may even think "I'm going to die anyway, why don't we bring others along" to make trouble deliberately, and then there are more people.

In short, the lieutenant general decided to keep the secret.

After that, he went to the battlefield twice more according to the order.

Because he was already planning to escape, he acted extra bravely, and even gained some goodwill.

On the day before his death, the man he had rescued came to him with several jars of wine and some meat, which seemed like seeing him off.

The lieutenant was afraid that he would be found abnormal if he refused, so he had no choice but to pretend that he still didn't know anything, and had a drink and chat with him.

After drinking too much, he was a little drunk.

In a daze, he heard the man ask him: "How did you think of joining the army? Is it conscription?"

The lieutenant general shook his head, "If it was conscription, I should have gone back."

After drinking, he was not sober, but he remembered some things he had forgotten.

He remembered a question he had asked himself before.

On the battlefield before, he remembered that when he first joined the army, he was obviously terrified, but he never thought of being a deserter.

What is the question?

Of course because he enlisted voluntarily.

The Qi Dynasty has always had a prosperous country and a strong people. Although there is a policy of compulsory conscription, there are actually many people who voluntarily join the army.

The lieutenant was born in a poor family, and his family was right at the border, next to a small country that was eyeing him.Whenever the defense of the border guards is relatively lax, the enemy troops will sneak in in small groups.

He remembered that there was a big cellar in his home, and that cellar was not used to store anything, but to hide people.

He had had enough of that fear.

When he was a child, he was determined to be a good man who defended his family and the country, and never let up at any time, in order not to let his family live in such a fearful life again.

But then he became more and more outstanding, was supported by the general, and even had the opportunity to read and read military books, and his personality gradually became complicated.

He bought a large house in a safe place and moved his family there, silently expressing his new ambitions through such actions.

See, there are other ways to keep your family safe and free from fear.

Being a soldier doesn't mean you have to stick to the border.

Thinking of this, he suddenly hesitated.

Still want to be a deserter?

Do you still have the face to go back and face your mother's family after being a deserter?

The mother has always been very proud, proud of having a son who defends the family and the country.

But as a deserter, I can no longer be her pride.

Suddenly, crying sounded in my ear.

"I'm so miserable!" The person who bought him a drink seemed to be very drunk.

The man cried: "I send them to die, I can't say anything, this is sending them to die!"

"At first, I thought it was enough to keep my hatred. After all, they were the first to see death, but I couldn't do it. I still feel very uncomfortable."

"I even wanted to stand in that position by myself. I would rather die by myself. I deliberately moved forward that day. I wanted to push him away. But I was dragged away!"

"I suddenly realized that I was too willful. The formation cannot be easily changed. Everyone's movements are different. I can't change him on my own. Otherwise, everyone in the small formation will die, which may affect the battle situation. , if the city breaks down, how many people will die!"

"The monsters are so vicious that ordinary people have no way to resist them. They travel thousands of miles a day. If they attack, there will be no safe place in the world..."

The man was a little delirious, and the consequences became more and more serious.

These words were like a hammer hitting the lieutenant's head, especially the last sentence, it was a heavy blow.

Indeed, this time is different from any previous time. In the past, only around the border was dangerous, but now, once the city is broken, there will be no truly safe place in the world.

He has already seen some of the ferocity of the Yaozu. If his selfish escape affects the battle situation, his family may be in danger again.

No, this time it may be a desperate situation!

The lieutenant's hand holding the wine bowl trembled, but he still brought the wine to his mouth, and then drank it all in one gulp.

He changed his mind.

People live for 20 years, and they cannot live longer and live back.

When I was 20 years old, I had just won the championship, and I joined the border guards with enthusiasm, and my legs were so frightened that my legs went weak on the battlefield, and I never thought of running away.

At that time, losing him was not a big deal, but he didn't go.

Now that he is gone, it may lead to a change in the situation of the battle, let alone him.

Besides, what qualifications does he have to trade someone else's life for his own?

When he wanted to escape, it wasn't that he didn't think about what to do with his vacant position, but he comforted himself that someone would definitely take his place.

But now that he thinks about it, what qualifications does he have to be replaced?

His life is his life, whose life is not his life?

The Buddha said, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell.

The deputy general thinks he can't reach this level, but at this moment, he can at least realize that he can't kill others because of his selfish desires.

He took a few more sips of wine and sat dry all night.

It has to be said that the feeling of knowing that he is going to die is terrible, and it is even worse that he can avoid his own death.

The soldier had told him earlier that he would never experience what the first soldiers felt—knowing that death was near and yet accepting it.

How grotesque, how insensitive, and how painful!

But the lieutenant general can only do this, because at this time he already knows that it is wrong to be a deserter.

He didn't want to suffer inner torture day after day after escaping.

He just sat there, even doubting whether Qi Wenliang planned all this.

He hated, worried, tensed, relaxed, and even felt relieved and happy.

During this period of time, his emotions were too rich, and he gradually became flesh and blood again.

During this period of time, his nerves were tense and loose, and he had good elasticity, so that now he can't be a numb person who disregards life.

If he was still as greedy as before, then he would not suffer, but he has "lived" and he knows what "conscience is disturbed" is.

It's so funny, on the eve of the end of life, I really "live".

Not knowing what he remembered, he found a piece of paper and began to write his last words.

The paper was found, but the pen was not found, but he was going to die anyway, and there was no need to save blood, so he just bit his finger and wrote a blood book.

On the second day, he went to the battlefield as usual.

The feeling of waiting for death is wonderful, and it's scary, and it feels like it's about to be released.

Everything that I once expected seems to have passed away. Right now, I just need to do what I should do.

puff.

The sound of the sharp weapon passing through the flesh/body sounded again.

Blood spilled on the ground beneath him.

This time, the lieutenant's time has come.

It hurts!

The lieutenant thought.

But he remembered something else.

It is said that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, but how many people enlist in order to become a general?

In the beginning, everyone just wanted to be a good man who defended their home and the country, and just wanted to keep the square inch behind them.

The struggle for power blinds people's eyes and makes people forget their original intentions. When the end comes, the deputy general is suddenly relieved.

This is the best home.

This is the most peaceful way to leave.

Life is a master, and death is a ghost.

It's all right not to be a hero, but please have a clear conscience.

For those who join the army, dying in battle seems to be a well-deserved death.

The author has something to say: Aww, I have finally finished writing him, and soon I can see Wen Liang and Zi An again.
