Under no talent, is a world famous general

There was a trace of determination in Xuan Lingyao's bright eyes, and he said solemnly, "I want to stay, and together with you adults, I will stick to Yanluo City!"

The generals were shocked when they heard this!
Chi Yuanwu was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands again and again, "You are not good at attacking and killing, so it is of no benefit to stay, it is better to escort the people to retreat eastward!"

After all, the defense of the city relies on blood and courage, and no resourcefulness is needed. There is no need for Xuan Lingyao to stay.

More importantly, Xuan Lingyao is the future imperial concubine, how dare he let her defend the city.

Soon, this place will become a battlefield, the most dangerous place in the entire Cangyuan Continent!

Xuan Lingyao shook her head and said in a concentrated voice, "It takes time for the people to escape, so I have to stay."

As long as you stay, it will work after all.

Chi Yuanwu said quickly, "This is our task. We will defend Yanluo Mansion City to the death and give the people more time to retreat. It is better for the strategists to follow the plan!"

Seeing Chi Yuanwu's refusal, Xuan Lingyao couldn't help frowning, "As a front-line strategist, I retreated all the way and never served the court. How can this be justified?"

A general hurriedly said, "Escorting the people is also an extremely important responsibility. If the people are allowed to evacuate without the leadership of the strategist, there will be a lot of trouble. So, strategist, you have made a plan for the imperial court's retreat." No small contribution!"

For an army to be able to operate, it needs soldiers who fight on the front line, as well as civilian men who transport supplies and supplies.

Indispensable.

Therefore, every position is quite important.

Xuan Lingyao pondered for a moment, and finally said, "I still hope that I can stay."

Seeing the companions around her, Jing Xun, Han Lin, Gan Zijin, Chen Yu... all staying on the front line, fighting bravely, while she retreated all the way, this made her unacceptable.

She couldn't do it, her companions were working desperately on the front line, but she retreated safely and abandoned her duties.

As a strategist on the front line, you should stay on the front line!

Seeing that Xuan Lingyao didn't listen to advice, Chi Yuanwu frowned, feeling a little helpless.

He pondered for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "Have you considered the prince's feelings when you make such a decision?"

He didn't dare to drive Xuan Lingyao away, let alone let him stay, so he could only continue to persuade her.

As a last resort, he could only mention Qin Yi.

Everyone knows that Qin Yi and Xuan Lingyao have mutual affection, but it has not been made public so far, so apart from Gan Zijin, very few people dare to mention their affair in person.

Now, in order to dissuade the other party, Chi Yuanwu can only mention it hastily.

When Xuan Lingyao heard this, her face turned reddish, and her beautiful face became even more stunning.

The generals didn't dare to look too much, and quickly looked away.

Before Xuan Lingyao could answer, Chi Yuanwu went on to say, "Xiang Rong is brutal, and it's not easy for everyone to protect themselves when they fight. It's hard to protect you. If you are injured, even... the prince will be extremely sad!"

Xuan Lingyao was about to speak out, but when she heard these words, she was stunned.

It's not that she hasn't considered Qin Yi, but she just feels that she should perform her duties.

But now, after hearing what Chi Yuanwu said, she became extremely silent.

She couldn't forget that her father died on the battlefield, and even the body could not be found, which brought much pain to the Xuan family.

The mother died of depression because of this, and the elder brother who always loved to play, seemed to have changed overnight, without a trace of playfulness, and became calm and introverted.

And because of her father's death and Lu Jingyi's forbearance, she was sullen and left Zhanjing for Lilanfu City.

In the following years, he never returned.

If he had done something he shouldn't have done, and suffered injury, or even died... Qin Yi would probably feel grief in his heart.

Thinking of this, Xuan Lingyao was silent for a long time before reluctantly giving up the idea of ​​staying behind.

Seeing that Xuan Lingyao didn't speak, Chi Yuanwu could only persuade, "It's the duty of soldiers to die on the battlefield, but the people are innocent, so how can they be injured or killed, so the responsibility of escorting the people is extremely important. After all, this is dozens of people. Thousands of lives, don't take this task lightly!"

"When you escort the people to Zhanjing, if... if Yanluo falls, then you will live and die with Zhanjing, and no one will stop you."

With a soft sigh, Xuan Lingyao nodded, "Your official understands that, since this is the case, there is no time to delay. After an hour, I will escort the people to retreat eastward, and there is no need to arrange a welcome banquet."

As long as Xuan Lingyao doesn't ask to stay, the wind banquet and so on are trivial matters, Chi Yuanwu said quickly, "That's fine, then I'll order the kitchen to cook some food, and you can go on your way after eating."

It was time for meal, so Xuan Lingyao nodded.

As a result, all the generals dispersed, and only one deputy general received Xuan Lingyao in the hall, as well as some generals who accompanied her to escort the people.

At this moment, a soldier rushed into the hall and said to Xuan Lingyao, "My lord, General Chi asked the humble officer to inform you that General Gan led his troops back and is about to enter the city. General Chi has already gone to meet you."

Xuan Lingyao was a little surprised, stood up and said, "I'll go to meet you too."

Through Chi Yuanwu, she had learned that Gan Zijin and Chen Yu had made great contributions by guarding the Tianbi Road for several days. Although they were injured, they did not die.

Unexpectedly, the other party withdrew here so quickly.

Just as Xuan Lingyao led several generals outside the hall, he saw Chi Yuanwu leading Gan Zijin and others walking slowly.

Walking half a body behind Chi Yuanwu was Gan Zijin with a pale face but piercing eyes.

Because of the injury, he walked more slowly.

Seeing Xuan Lingyao walking out of the hall, Gan Zijin hurriedly cupped his hands, and said respectfully, "See your empress for a humble job!"

Xuan Lingyao's pretty face blushed, and she couldn't help but feel helpless.

A general like Gan Zijin who has been a general for many years and has gradually become calm, but still has a trace of unruly heart is extremely rare.

Jing Xun, Gan Zijin, Heng Yu...these people had known Qin Yi when Qin Yi was still a student of the Grand General Academy.

However, as Qin Yi's official position was gradually promoted, the attitude of several of them towards Qin Yi changed from the casual way of treating friends in the past to the respect they should have towards their superiors.

Only this Gan Zijin was itchy. Not only was he quite casual when getting along with Qin Yi, but he even dared to make jokes at will... Xuan Lingyao was a little helpless, but considering that the other party had gone through a bloody battle and never died, it was worth it. Celebrate, don't care about the other party.

Chi Yuanwu smiled and said, "The kitchen is about to prepare meals. General Gan and General Chen, you should eat a little too. Afterwards, you can escort the people eastward with the strategists."

Gan Zijin was startled, and quickly said, "Retreat to the east? How can we retreat to the east? We have to stay and defend the city!"

Chen Yu also nodded and said, "Exactly, it's time to employ people, how can we retreat!"

Chi Yuanwu couldn't help but sigh secretly, is everyone under Qin Yi's command so dedicated to their duties?

Xuan Lingyao asked to stay, and now Gan Zijin and Chen Yu also want to stay...

He could only persuade, "The two generals have suffered serious injuries, and the brothers who came with you have also experienced bloody battles. They should retreat to the rear and take a rest."

Gan Zijin shook his head again and again, "There is no need to rest, just give me a long knife, and I can kill for a whole day!"

Seeing that the other party didn't listen, Chi Yuanwu was a little helpless, and said directly, "No need to say more, I am the commander, you must listen to me!"

Xuan Lingyao is the future imperial concubine, so she has to persuade them patiently, but although these guys are Qin Yi's confidantes, he really has no intention of persuading them, and directly suppresses them with his authority.

Gan Zijin couldn't help pursing his mouth when he heard this, and muttered a few words, as if he was quite dissatisfied with Chi Yuanwu for being so unkind.

Chi Yuanwu faintly heard a few words, what the other party said was that they were both top four in martial arts, Jing Xun and Mu Haoyang were modest people, but this guy was so irritable.

Chi Yuanwu couldn't help but smile wryly when he heard this, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

……

The night was getting darker, dark clouds covered the missing moon, and the surroundings were quite dark.

Looking at the empty city outside, Chi Yuanwu, who was standing on the city wall, felt a little heavy in his heart.

The people outside the city all followed Xuan Lingyao and Gan Zijin to retreat eastward.

At this moment, the Yanluo Mansion City changed from its former noise and became extremely quiet.

Deathly silence!

There is a feeling of a storm coming.

This let him know that a bloody battle is approaching!

At this moment, in the distance outside the city, someone galloped to the bottom of the city, waving the flag again and again.

Through the semaphore, knowing that it was a scout, the guard quickly opened the city gate and let the scout in.

Generally speaking, when visiting all the cities, in the middle of the night, they will implement measures to block the city gates.

But the four major military towns are exceptions, and the temporary military towns are also exceptions.

Yanluo Mansion City is about to become a battlefield, so naturally we can't follow the usual practice, so as not to delay the battle opportunity.

After the scouts entered the city, they saw Chi Yuanwu rushing down the city with many soldiers. He hurried up to meet him and said anxiously, "General, I have found out that Xiang Rong has arrived fifty miles outside the city and is resting in the forest." !"

His eyes shrank suddenly, and Chi Yuanwu was shocked!
Xiang Rong, it's so fast!

It seems that going over mountains and ridges is really easy for them!
After being surprised for a long time, Chi Yuanwu came back to his senses, and said very heavily, word by word, "pass on the order, from now on, Yanluo City will enter a state of preparation for war, always pay attention to Xiangrong's actions, take strict precautions, and don't let it happen in the slightest." negligence!"

Many soldiers were also full of heavy hearts, and kept saying yes!

This night, an incomparably dignified aura enveloped the city of Yanluo Mansion!
It was as if the air had become stagnant!

……

After one night, many generals in Yanluo Prefecture stood up and put on armor, preparing for the first day when Xiangrong arrived at the city.

But at this time, a bad news came from outside the city!

Xiang Rong, take a detour!

Bypass Yanluo Prefecture and head straight to Zhanjing!

Chi Yuanwu was shocked when he heard the news, his eyes widened and his fists clenched tightly. He never expected that these damned guys are so treacherous!
The other party went straight to Zhanjing, he must know that Zhanjing is the capital of Linzhan.

The purpose of these guys is probably the millions of people in the city!

They have no luggage, no need to transport food, and they can go around the city without worrying about their supplies being cut off.

But the soldiers who came to Zhan did not dare to go out of the city to fight in the field.

Because of this, Xiang Rong has nothing to fear!

These goddamn guys!
Chi Yuanwu cursed again and again, he frowned and kept thinking, not knowing what to do.

As the second line of defense, it was to give Zhan Jing in the rear more time to prepare. How could he just stand by and watch Xiang Rong bypass it easily!

So, after thinking for a moment, he made an extremely heavy decision!
