The fat man couldn’t stand this request, additionally, his food wasn’t prepared yet. He determined that he won’t be able to come back alive after he entered the battlefield. His heart was covered with the fire since this morning, he was looking for a place to vent it, and so he vented it towards Zhu Si and Hu Feng: “This double edge plan, I’m afraid they planned it a long time ago, and they are just waiting for this day.”
“Ever since Prince Jin disappeared, they charged all the close people to Prince Jin as spies. All of them were put in East 7th Camp, they were tortured every day, forcing them to admit that Prince Jin was a spy, but they didn’t expect that all those generals have iron personality. How can succumb to this false accusation? Because of this, they killed the generals one by one. Even in our battalion, they didn’t spare the ordinary soldiers, they tried every means for them to rebel against Prince Jin. Unfortunately, they never succeed.”
“In the past 3 years, General Hu hated and feared our Iron Cavalry Camp and Black Battalion Army. They had been trying to get rid of us. But the soldiers in our battalions, together, had been more than 20,000 people. The only way to kill so many people is to let us go to the battlefield and let us die in the hands of the enemy. By then, they can simply explain in the court.”
Zhu Si said: “Don’t you all said that your Iron Cavalry Camp and Black Battalion Army are brave and good at fighting? In this case, you can all just come back after winning the battle, right?”
The fat man waved his hand: “Its not as easy as you said to win the battle. In the past, when Prince Jin was there, the generals only need to focus. Prince Jin always can come up with a great strategy. Before each war, he will make plans in advance, the generals only need lead us according to this plan. There were people for attacking and defending, multiple groups of people were cooperating to achieve a great victory. Today, Prince Jin and the generals who lead us are absent. The army of 20,000 people is just like scattered sand. And how do you expect us to win against 100,000 elite soldiers?”
“100,000? Your group of 20,000 will face 100,000? Then, doesn’t that mean you’ll die?” Zhu Si’s face was full of shock.
The fat man sighed again, he looked helpless, tears accumulated in his eyes. Who was not born and raised by their parents? Who doesn’t have a home and family? Who’s life was not important? Who wants to die?
Hu Feng then said to Zhu Si: “Don’t ask too much, just go and see if the food is packed in the cart.”
Zhu Si hurried to go.
Hu Feng held the fat man who turned around to walked away, then he said with a low voice: “Can you step out to talk?”
Before the fat man could respond, Hu Feng left the camp and walked under the big tree behind the camp.The fat man looked at the cart that was still empty. It seemed that he still need to wait for a while, he turned around and got out of the camp to catch up with Hu Feng.
“Little brother, do you have something to tell me?” The fat man was curious, he didn’t seem to know this handsome youth in front of him.
Hu Feng looked at the surroundings, when he saw no one was around, he said with a low voice: “If you want to come back alive from the battlefield, listen to me.”
The fat man was shocked: “What? What did you say?”
Hu Feng continued: “You said that you and your army will go to the battlefield tomorrow, so tonight, around 3 midnight, you bring some of the leaders of Iron Cavalry Camp and Black Battalion Army.”
The leader of the Black Battalion Army may not recognize him, but the leader of the Iron Cavalry Camp must know him.
“Why? What do you want to do?” The fat man looked baffled.
Hu Feng said: “I have studied many military books, I know how to win with fewer people. I also know how to formulate a strategy for you to defeat the 100,000 elite soldiers of Xiye Country.”
