Chapter 28 Generals Gamble

A girl in a sea blue dress rode to the gate.

"Who is under the city!" The guards on the tower shouted.

"I am Bai Lan, the young master of the Mo family. By the order of the Mo family, I came to help General Lu defend the city! Please inform General Lu. The white and blue crisp voice was transmitted through internal force, and the whole tower could be heard clearly.

A young general appeared on the tower, dressed in a general's uniform, which was obviously the head of these guards. He looked at the thin girl downstairs, who was dusty, but could not hide his beautiful and peerless face.

The young general looked at it for a moment and said, "Girl, please wait a moment and I will inform you later."

White and blue held their fists, "General Lao!"

Two quarters later, a powerful veteran came out of the wind and looked at the girl in blue downstairs for a moment. I couldn't believe how the young master of the Mo family could be such a weak and thin girl under 16 years old and said, "This general is Lv Fangcai, and the girl is the young master of the Mo family?"

"I have seen General Lu. I came to help the general guard the gate under the order of my family teacher." White and blue's attitude is neither humble nor arrogant.

"The girl said it was the young master of the Mo family, but what evidence do you have?" Nowadays, at the beginning of the war, it is inevitable that there will be no spies who want to sneak into the customs for various reasons to explore the truth. As an experienced veteran, Lv Fangcai will not easily let anyone into the customs, even if she looks like a girl with no power.

"The Mo family's torch order is here, General Lu, please have a look!" With that, Bai Lan took the torch from his arms and threw it up, which fell accurately in front of Lv Fangcai.

Standing beside Lv Fangcai, the young general who sent the message just now bent down to pick up the wooden card and handed it to Lv Fangcai. The two looked at it carefully for a moment and made sure that it was really the Mo family's torch order. The two looked happy. Lv Fangcai was busy to open the gate and let Bai Lan enter the city.

Entering the city, Lv Fang welcomed the white and blue to the general's mansion in the city. It was night. That night, he held a banquet to wash the white and blue.

During the banquet, Bailan, who had enough to eat and drink, had not slept well for several days. Finally, he couldn't stand it. He lay on the table tiredly and slept, and swept a group of soldiers aside. Everyone was speechless, but they did not dare to disturb.

Seeing her sleeping so tired and afraid that she would catch a cold, everyone discussed taking her back to the room, but it was a question who would hold her. All the men present were, and the men and women were not close to them. They were afraid of offending the beautiful and flawless girl in front of them.

Finally, Xu Yun, the young young man who reported Lv Fangcai, picked her up and put her back to the guest room to sleep.

Early the next morning, Bai Lan woke up and Lu Fang had gathered in the hall with eight generals to discuss.

Seeing the appearance of white and blue, the crowd will stop discussing and invite white and blue to the main position.

The white and blue dress is dressed in an elegant sea-blue Luo skirt, with a faint smile on her plain and flawless little face. She looks much better than last night. A good night's sleep makes her radiant and beautiful.

"General Lu, what's the current situation?" Although he has never experienced such a large-scale ancient war, Bailan in his previous life was a soldier who had experienced many battles. The fearless pride of war in the soldier's bones returned to Bailan's heart again.

"The enemy's strength is very strong, especially the people in southern Xinjiang. They are not afraid of death. They have been besieging the city for ten days and have been attacking the city for five consecutive days. Both sides have suffered losses. At present, our army has lost 30,000 people, and the remaining 70,000 people are not shocked. I'm afraid that Jiahe Pass will not be able to stay for a few days. It will take half a month for General Mengbo's reinforcements to arrive. The veteran I'm ashamed of my emperor!" The more Lv Fangcai said, the more frustrated he became. He guarded this side for ten years and had never encountered such a dilemma.

"General Lu, don't have to be discouraged. Since I have come, I will never let Chu Ge capture this Jiahe Pass!" White and blue comforted.

Lv Fangcai looked at the confident girl in front of him and wondered, "The veteran knows that Mr. Bai is amazing, but after all, Mr. Bai has only one person with limited strength. Moreover, this large-scale siege battle cannot be resisted by peerless martial arts."

"Yes, young master Bai, a girl's family, is still not suitable in this bloody battlefield." Some generals under the seat echoed.

Bai Lan looked at the eight generals present, mostly men around 30 years old. She smiled, and a strong domineering light suddenly burst out in Mo Yu's eyes: "Yes, I'm a girl's family, and I'm a little girl under 16 years old. If you don't want to believe me, there is only one result. , that is, the city has broken and lost, giving Nanchu a ** opportunity to march into the Central Plains. At that time, you will no longer lose this small border city, not just a life, but a large area of land of Qin, which is your home country! Since you have made this worst plan in your heart, why don't you believe me once? Maybe there is still a glimmer of vitality. You must know that the idea advocated by my Mo family is both love; non-attack! Although I won't attack others, they hit my territory, and I won't defend against it! What if there are three times more enemies than our army? There are not many soldiers, but in the essence, and the success or failure of an army lies in the general. A good general can be worth 100,000 soldiers!"

The generals are not convinced of such a little girl, but her identity as the young master of the Mo family is there. Although the generals and soldiers have guarded the border for many years, they have still heard of the incident that the young master of the Mo family defeated the fourth and fifth master of the world and easily broke the first array of the Yin and Yang family in the world at the Taoism Conference. .

At this moment, when I saw the strong aura that people dare not look directly, the temperament and calmness suddenly leaked from this girl. Hearing her heroic words, everyone felt an invisible pressure on their hearts, and no one dared to question it again.

"How about I make a bet with you?" Bai Lan put away his forced eyes and smiled faintly, and his beautiful eyes flashed a trace of cunning.

"What bet?" Xu Yun asked.

"If I can retreat within five days, how about you and the rest of the city follow me from now on and only obey my orders?" Her calm tone made everyone stunned and unbelievable.

"Five-day retreat? This is impossible. Nanchu is not good to Jiahe this time, and it is bound to win! With such a small force, how can we repel 300,000 troops for a few more days? Lv Fang just vetoed, thinking that this girl was really thick and arrogant that she dared to praise such a sea mouth.

Bailan ignored him and continued to smile and said, "There is nothing impossible in the world, only those who refuse to do it, General Lu. Since you know that the other party is bound to win, and you also know that the army can't defend it. Once you lose it, you must be desperate. Then why not make this bet with me? Anyway, you have no loss, everyone If you lose the bet, you will make a lot of money, won't you? I not only saved your lives, but also defended my country, but also got such a good master as me. Ha ha, why not do it?"

"Okay, the last general is willing to bet!" Xu Yun, the young general, agreed first.

The generals thought for a moment and agreed one after another: "The last general is also willing to gamble!"

White and Lan Yingying smiled and looked at Lv Fangcai, the only general who did not let go. He didn't say anything, but just looked at him with a calm smile.

Under the pressure of her eyes, in the same voice of everyone, Lv finally sighed and compromised: "In this case, the veteran can only entrust the lives of all the people in the city and 70,000 soldiers to the young master Bai."

In a word, it is a big gamble to bet on the future of himself and 70,000 soldiers.

"Ha ha, it's so good! Where is the pen and ink? White blue asked with a smile.

Immediately, someone took out the four treasures of the study. Xu Yun polished the ink for the white and blue. She raised her bare hands gently and bowed her head on the snow-white rice paper.

A column of incense time, she finished writing a piece of paper and drew a drawing.

Give the paper full of words to Xu Yun and said, "General Xu, please help me send more people to find all these things in the city in one day, buy them according to the quantity written on them, and then help me find 20 quick-moving young soldiers in the army and use them for three days."

After saying that, he handed over the drawing to Lv Fangcai: "General Lv, please help me find all the craftsmen in Qicheng, make the above things according to this drawing, and then find all the materials written above. You need to work day and night. The more Zhuge crossbows you can make in three days, the better."

The two took it and saw several strange names written on the white paper in Xu Yun's hand: glycerin, small glass bottle, sulfur; short bamboo tube; small hemp rope, and so on.

The drawing in Lv Fangcai's hand is a design drawing similar to the bow and arrow, but it is different from the bow and arrow they are currently using. The shape is more complicated, and the arrow feathers are also different. Obviously, it is a new type of weapon.

Lu Fangcai took a look at Xu Yun. Is this a new weapon designed by Master Bai himself?

The two did not say much, so they followed the instructions of Bailan and sent people down to look for those things and warlocks.

Bai Lan walked to the tower and looked at the empty land downstairs. Chu Ge and the southern Xinjiang allied forces sent tens of thousands of horses to attack the city, shouting, roaring, and the wind and dust rising on the battlefield. All this made Bai Lan instantly indignant. These Southern Chu people were invading her country! Even if she doesn't let go of the State of Qin, even if she is about to leave the country for the State of Qi, she will not allow anyone to trample on her country under her eyes!

I have to say that although the southern Xinjiang people are savage and fierce, they are also rigorous in formation. The soldiers rushing to the front all raised large pieces of shields to block the arrows, so the casualties were not heavy. The army of Chu was followed by a large number of archers in heavy iron armor and long infantry behind them.

On the contrary, the arrows shot by the Qin army on this side defending the city were mostly on the enemy's shield or iron armor, wasting a lot of arrow feathers and could not stop the enemy's progress, while the enemy's arrow feathers shot on the tower one after another, and many soldiers fell from the tower with arrows to the wall.
