Chapter 665 All three parties need help
General Gu who was far away in the border town sneezed heavily.

The deputy general worried: "General, you should take a rest."

General Gu waved his hand, staring at the formation map, "How many enemy troops?"

"According to the news sent back by the scouts, there are 3 enemy troops."

Hearing this, General Gu's face became more serious.

The guard army stationed here has only 3 soldiers, how can it be worth the [-] soldiers.

Obviously the other party came prepared.

People on the prairie, as soon as winter comes, start thinking about enriching the materials on the land.

Normally, when this season came, they would prepare for battle and gather at most [-] soldiers. However, they did not expect that before the season of war started, they would already gather [-] soldiers during the season of preparation.

The lieutenant lowered his voice and said, "Should I ask the lord for help on this matter?"

The deputy general is the confidant of General Gu, and he joined Qin Lu along with General Gu.

In fact, the lieutenant knew that General Gu had wavered, and the three parties cast olive branches. He wanted to cast a wide net, but the lieutenant didn't care.

In the end, General Gu chose to join Qin Lu, and he naturally became Qin Lu's subordinate.

General Gu rubbed his brows, he had already informed the lord of this matter, but he also knew that the lord only had [-] private soldiers under his command, even if all of them were transferred, it would be a hard battle.

What's more, this is the border city of the Lin Dynasty. Whether the city is broken or not, it has nothing to do with the lord. Why should the lord use private soldiers to guard the land of the Lin Dynasty.

Just when he was worried, there was a shout of an ax outside the door: "General, there is a letter!"

Although Ax is a guard, he is actually one of the confidantes of General Gu. Letting him be a guard is just to cover up people's eyes and ears, for the purpose of receiving and sending letters, and these letters are secret letters that cannot be known by outsiders.

The lieutenant hurriedly took the letter and handed it to General Gu.

Seeing the antler mark on the letter, General Gu felt hopeful in his heart. He opened the letter and looked at ten lines at a glance, his eyes brightened.

Seeing the general's frown stretched out, the lieutenant asked, "Is there any good news?"

General Gu laughed heartily: "My lord said that there are a lot of bandits, which can solve the problem."

"Bandits?" The deputy general was full of doubts: "Those people can be obedient? Don't make trouble, or surrender to the enemy."

"My lord said that he can send me five thousand bandits to serve as the vanguard."

"Five thousand..." The lieutenant general frowned, "But the enemy army is thirty thousand. Even if 5000 join us, we only have 5000. The enemy army is brave and good at fighting. It is too difficult to fight two with one."

"Since we pretended to take refuge in the imperial concubine and the forces claiming to be of royal blood, we should let them bleed."

"My lord, what you mean is, let the general ask the two parties for more manpower?"

"My lord asked me to ask the imperial concubine to ask for people from the East Factory. Most of those people have peerless martial arts, and it's no problem to fight one against ten. As for the forces that claim to be royal blood, they want money and horses."

"They will give it?" The lieutenant couldn't believe it.

"As long as one party offers benefits, the other two parties will take the initiative to offer benefits, for fear that I will be completely bought by one of them."

Hearing this, the deputy general suddenly realized: "My lord gave you 5000 people. They should think that you are pretending to take refuge in my lord, and that you are their undercover agent. Seeing that my lord has already sent 5000 people, it's time to send charcoal. As your real master, they can't be defeated." When you are out of battle, you will naturally have to contribute money and effort. If you ask for too much, it will make both sides feel that you are talking too much. Each side needs some appropriately to maintain a balance. For you, it is enough to deal with the enemy. And for them, they will trust you even more."
