"It is your duty to win the next battle with the least number of people, and you are not the leader of the slaves but the general of the people. It is your duty to win justice for most of the people, and the unveiling of the battle is done by a wild man like Gu Sheng and a hot-blooded man."
Lai Xuan looked at her silently for a long time before saying, "Every time I see you, you will teach me. You're too proud."
Qi Rou and the others chuckled. Gu Danyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I only have this mouth that can pop out some useful things. The real thing is to rely on your brains and methods."
"This suggestion of yours isn't impossible either." Lai Xuan continued calmly, "Since you know of my situation and have accompanied me here to help settle a small matter, I'm not too familiar with this."
"I am from the Eldan." Gu Danyan froze.
"You're also a busybody, and you don't talk too much." Lai Xuan looked at her. "I did so many things at the beginning all thanks to you. Now, you want to use your identity and not give me orders, so you should do something."
Gu Liuyan suddenly felt that it was a good feeling to be loved.
The expression on Lai Xuan's face was extremely disgusted with her. Perhaps she treated human life like silver and had her jaw tightly clenched, but what she said still made sense. She even bit her teeth in an attempt to pull her into this situation.
"Fine." She slowly let out a breath of air. "I know that you have always cared about human life, but there is nothing that you can do about it."
"Before I try to stop your mouth, give me advice and remind me that this is for more family members." This time, Lai Xuan's tone carried a hint of warning.
Phantom Shadow stood beside Gu Meiyan: "No matter what, you know that she is right."
Lai Xuanlian turned to look at the ghost, then walked out of the tent without even looking back.
After this, other people would come and discuss some matters regarding the money with Qi Rou. Zhang Liangshan did not say a word, but when he and Qi Rou left to check the rations, he said calmly, "Gu Liuyan has always been this extreme."
"Why?" Qi Rou looked up at him.
"People who love her take her as a family member, and people who don't like her wouldn't even give her a little bit of kindness." Zhang Liangshan revealed a sad expression.
Qi Rou knew that he would always think of his dead sister like this, so she said gently, "Do you really think that we, friends, love her?"
"Otherwise?" Zhang Liangshan asked.
"She only has two close friends, Qing Dai and Gui Gui. You are considered half a disciple of hers, and I can only be considered as someone from the same sect who shared the same goal as her. We all go our own way, but she's the fair hand, she's the one who makes the suggestion, and when you make your own decisions, or when you give orders, she doesn't leave. " Qi Rou shook her head helplessly. "We don't love her. We love her for her reason and help."
Zhang Liangshan thought for a while and frowned, "But we are all concerned about her."
"That's why relationships between people are always mysterious." Qi Rou suddenly chuckled, "But not everyone will like her. Some people might just feel a little new, no matter how much she does, she's just a passerby. All the credit will pass by her, but no one will know that she has pushed people, and perhaps history."
"Maybe you're right." Zhang Liangshan also nodded seriously.
At the same time, Gu Liuyan's arrival had stirred up a lot of commotion among the generals. They had all survived from the city that they had once massacred, and those lives had been forged into the unity they now had, as well as their nightmares and the evil in their hearts.
However, Gu Liuyan mercilessly stabbed a knife into their chests, straight to their hearts.
"You kill for what you call freedom, but in reality you kill for yourselves. Now it is time for you to exchange your lives and the lives of your soldiers for the blessings of your children, for the lives of your wives and parents. Yet you guys are still talking back to me about the reason why we can't lose any manpower? " Gu Shenwei rested both of his hands on the edge of the table.
These slaves began to cherish their lives, but they didn't hesitate to go to the extreme side, thinking that this change was enough. They greedily wanted to live on their own, in the name of their subordinates.
"No wonder you had an affair with Duan Chengxuan. You're also an executioner like him!"
Some generals shouted in anger.
"If he is the executioner, why is it that after he won the battle, no one dares to behave atrociously at the border, and who would send soldiers to guard the desert and mountain forests between these countries?" Gu Liuyan slammed the table and shouted angrily: "If I were the executioner and Lai Xuan were the executioner, would you still be standing here and clamoring at me?"
"You ask questions that do not solve them. You have offered to serve your subordinates without regard for their families. All of you stand in the tent and speak reason for your lives, why are you not able to stand on the city wall and ask those soldiers if they are willing to use their lives in exchange for the safety of their families? "
With that, the atmosphere of the tent sank into a strange silence.
At this moment, Lai Xuan spoke up, "Men, gather all the soldiers on the drill ground and ask them if they are willing."
"General!" "How can you listen to a foreign woman …"
"But she's right." Lai Xuan interrupted him, her gaze sharp. "What I want is to resist, to solve the problem we have today! Jiang Yan and those of the new kingdom had already fought their way to the door.
None of them dared to speak.
Gu Ming's face turned red from the smoke, and now it was quiet. She just quietly drank a cup of water and lowered his head, "If Gu Sheng wants to control this place, all of you have to be prepared to cooperate instead of bowing down. This is the most likely places to have mines, and at that time, if he attacks …"
He didn't listen to the results outside the door and only carefully organized Jiang Yan's map.
Even though the old ancestor had handed over the defensive map to her, she did not intend to tell anyone else about it. Even Duan Chengxuan and Gu Sheng did not know about it, but they could roughly search for it with the help of the defensive map.
However, he couldn't hide it before getting down to business.
The cheers of the soldiers outside the door had nothing to do with her. While some of the generals were distracted and worried, she had already marked down many things on the table. They were all speculations but they were reasonable.
She even knew the direction of Jiang Yan's terrain better than some of the generals present.
In the evening, as Gu Dingyan sat by the bedside with a headache, Qi Rou's voice rang out: "The letter from King Jing has been delivered to the border."
"What's the matter?" Gu Liuyan let her in.
Qi Rou pushed open the door and said helplessly, "He said that she found a Feng Shui treasure for Qing Dai to bury in, and he even asked the head of the White Horse Temple to recite a prayer for her, so you can be at ease."
Stunned, Gu Danyan remained silent. Qi Rou put down the letter and left.
Qi Rou didn't know what position Qing Dai held in her heart.
He only remembered that Gu Danyan had not slept for the entire night.
