Chapter 181 Attitude
Chapter 181 Attitude
At this moment, inside the tent.
There was a fire lit in the middle, with several people sitting around it. Only Zhan Xiang and Hong Shan were standing. Everyone had a very ugly look on their faces.
The atmosphere was very depressing and seemed to be on the verge of breaking out at any moment.
Hong Shan glared at Zhan Xiang and said in a voice that left no room for doubt: "You are no longer fit to be a commander. All subsequent actions must be under my command! You cannot make the same mistake over and over again!"
Zhan Xiang looked at him in disbelief, then pointed at Hong Shan's nose and roared, "Are you going to rebel?! Who gave you the right to speak to me like that?! Don't forget, I'm the one chosen by the Empress Dowager!"
"Moreover, every decision I make is carefully considered! With the war approaching, we must prioritize national affairs and unite against the outside world first!"
Hong Shan disagreed and sneered: "Think carefully? Then how could you lose such an important thing?!"
Zhan Xiang's breathing stagnated. "Who would have thought that it was one of our own people who did this? What on earth were they doing this for?"
Hong Shan: "Humph, what else could it be for?! I'm afraid you're trying to escape and have some trump cards in hand so that you can have bargaining chips if you get caught. You're really being too clever!"
Zhan Xiang: "Bargain? How could that old fox Li Shanqi give me a chance to negotiate? If he really ran away, it would be fine. Otherwise, I'm afraid he's in great danger now."
Hong Shan waved his hand and said, "Stop talking nonsense. You can't escape responsibility for such a serious mistake. If you still want to survive, you must voluntarily give up the position of captain from today on."
The others looked at each other and immediately split into two factions.
"Why?"
"Brother Zhan is the captain appointed by the higher-ups. Why are you doing this?!"
"Why not? Aren't everyone's lives important? Zhan Xiang made many mistakes in command along the way. If it weren't for Brother Hong saving the day, we wouldn't know how many times we would have died!"
A tall, thin man with short eyebrows stepped forward and said tentatively, "Brothers, stop arguing. I think we should take this opportunity... to run away. Otherwise, if we don't kill Lu Chaofeng, we'll die if we go back, and we might die if we stay!"
Someone suggested running away, which was exactly what the others wanted.
But Hong Shan raised his eyebrows, stared at the man, grabbed him by the throat and said, "Want to be a deserter? Then I might as well strangle you to death right now!"
"No, no, no, Brother Hong, I was wrong. I was just talking nonsense."
Hong Shan glanced at everyone with a sharp gaze, "Even if it means death anyway, we must die on the battlefield!"
Who wants to die?
No one wants to die.
Due to the concerns of force and face, no one dared to speak out to refute his words, but people's hearts could not change.
After he let go of my hand, a while passed.
"Hongshan, don't be angry. We are at a dead end no matter how we look at it. What should we do?"
Hong Shan curled his lips. "Who said this is a dead end? Let's complete the mission assigned by the superiors, kill Lu Chaofeng, and then withdraw immediately. How about that?"
Zhan Xiang couldn't help but close his eyes and shook his head. "What the hell are you talking about! Are you blind? Didn't you see what happened today?! If Lu Chaofeng hadn't been fighting so hard, could the Beiling Army have held out for so long? And they were forced to retreat."
"Zhan Xiang! Don't forget what your mission is! Why are you here? Wake up!"
"Hongshan, don't forget! Defending our country is the most important thing."
The two people's voices became louder and louder.
Someone came to persuade me.
But I don't know who pushed whom first, but soon the fight turned from verbal to physical.
Otsuji flew down from the top of the tent.
Chen Hao was almost frozen. Seeing him coming down, he waved his hand and said, "Go!"
The soldiers behind him trotted over in unison.
The personal soldier Xiao Zhao opened the tent curtain without saying a word and said, "Stop it! Who allowed you to fight in private?"
Hong Shan and others stopped.
"Ah? It's unfair. We were just joking, just joking."
"Yeah, we were just too chill. The brothers were just having fun. There were no fights or brawls. It was all just misunderstandings."
The personal soldier Xiao Zhao is very obedient in front of the general and Chen Hao, but it is completely different when it comes to other soldiers.
Normally, he is the only one who is polite to others. Although he will not bully others by taking advantage of his power, he will not give others a good face easily.
"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, I don't bother to listen to your arguments! The general is looking for you now. He said he has an important mission for you to go on. Please come in."
Zhan Xiang and Hong Shan looked at each other and silently tightened their weapons.
Zhan Xiang asked tentatively, "General, did you say what it was about?"
Xiao Zhao raised his chin, "Not really. You'll know when you get there! Hurry up."
After what just happened, Hongshan and his group have become extremely nervous. They don't know which young man lost his temper and took the initiative to attack because he couldn't bear the pressure.
The situation changed instantly.
Zhan Xiang thought to himself, "Oh no!" Unfortunately, there was no turning back. He was forced to join them in the fight. Perhaps he could still find a way out, but it seemed... he couldn't return to the capital.
At this moment, all the people who had just been in the melee became united and faced the outside world together.
Xiao Zhao and others are outsiders.
"has a problem!"
"There's something wrong with these people!"
"Quick, take them all down! Tie them up!"
At Xiao Zhao's command, everyone took action.
Chen Hao, who originally wanted to watch the show outside, joined in when he saw this, and the situation got out of control.
When it comes to life and death, no one dares not to do their best.
Zhan Xiang and Hong Shan both tried their best!
As the Empress Dowager had personally chosen them, their martial arts skills were naturally not bad, especially Zhan Xiang, the captain, who was particularly brave and formidable. Hong Shan, however, seemed determined to compete with Zhan Xiang, and his attacks were clean and efficient, with many soldiers being defeated.
Yi Er felt that something was wrong, so he quickly sent someone back to call for support, and he himself joined the battle.
"Deputy General Chen, you take care of the left side. I'll take care of this!"
"no problem!"
Yi Er's lightness skill is both an advantage and a disadvantage. He slides like a loach, changing his position back and forth, and can quickly get rid of his own people from the hands of the opponent. But when it comes to a one-on-one battle, his fighting power is actually not enough.
cough--
He was hit in the abdomen by Hong Shan's punch and flew back several meters before he managed to steady himself.
Chen Hao wasn't in much better shape, his situation was similar. Zhan Xiang used a series of sweeping kicks, pushing Chen Hao back several meters.
"Damn it! Who are you?!" Chen Hao got up and said angrily.
"You don't know?" Zhan Xiang was stunned.
But Hong Shan didn't give him a chance to think. He drew his sword and rushed towards Chen Hao. "If you want to know who my grandfather is, you'd better wait for your next life!"
call out--
Just as Hong Shan was about to rush to Chen Hao, he was suddenly hit by something. He couldn't retreat in time and fell to the ground.
He covered the wound on his left shoulder and looked at the person in surprise, "Why is it you?"
