The sun was blazing.
The winter sunshine is scattered on the earth, and the warmth seems to warm everyone.
However, there is no warmth flowing through the hearts of the officers and soldiers in the barracks outside Qinghe City.
There is no other reason, because this day will be the beginning of their head-on confrontation with the Qin invaders.
No matter if you are a veteran or a newbie.
They had never really been on the battlefield, let alone faced such terrifying bandits.
The story of the death of 500 people in the entire navy camp is still spread in Qinghe City even now.
I don’t know if the cunning Qin Kou stopped it on purpose, especially during these two days.
The stories about the five hundred officers and soldiers who died in the naval camp are becoming more and more mysterious.
Some people say that Qin Kou is the reincarnation of a god, and those naval officers and soldiers who attacked him in the early stage were all killed by the Dragon King at sea.
Some people also say that Qin Kou can write evil spells. Once he enters the sea, Qin Kou will use evil spells to make people drown in the sea.
Of course, such rumors only spread for two days before being suppressed by General Bi.
But even so, it still spread to the barracks.
When these mobs learned about it, they became even more panicked.
After all, they don't know whether they are going to face bandits, reincarnations of gods, or evil monks?
But no matter which one it is, the uneasiness in their hearts has reached its limit.
There is no other reason than that people are naturally afraid of death.
What's more, they still have to fight the Qin Kou.
Bi Hanlin stood in front of the square formation and had a clear view of the officers and soldiers below.
And now the mental outlook of these officers and soldiers has fallen into his eyes.
Looking at the dejected looks of each of them, Bi Hanlin already had the idea of avoiding war in his heart.
Let such a group of people go to the battlefield...
He had already guessed the consequences.
However, now even if he wanted to avoid the battle, it was impossible.
In addition to his own men, there was also Xie Qingshan with him.
And now Xie Qingshan is by his side, reviewing with him.
At a glance, Xie Qingshan on the side had a huge smile on his face.
Seeing the smile on Xie Qingshan's face, Bi Hanlin felt extremely angry.
But even so, there was nothing he could do.
Of course, it would be inappropriate to say that there is no solution at all.
He could have canceled the operation directly, but this way...
Bi Hanlin naturally knew what the consequences would be, and he also knew that if he did this, he would be wildly targeted by the Xie family.
When the time came for him to come before the Holy Master, he also knew that the Xie family would definitely write a memorial.
Looking at the officers and soldiers below, Bi Hanlin was struggling in his heart.
Today can be said to be the time that determines the life and death of most of them.
If you go, a lot of people will die, but if you don't go, maybe he, Bi Hanlin, will die.
If it was just him, Bi Hanlin, who died, then that would be fine, but he didn't want his family to be infamous.
In the midst of such struggling thoughts, Xie Qingshan on the side slowly spoke.
"General Bi, I wonder when we will send out troops? It's already noon now. If we don't send out troops, it will be a little late, right?"
After hearing Xie Qingshan's words, Bi Hanlin just came back from his thoughts.
Looking sideways at Xie Qingshan, he didn't say a word.
The red eyes were obviously caused by not getting enough rest.
Bi Hanlin's struggle did not just start on this day, but started the moment he announced the attack on Qin Kou.
Three days of hard work were three days of torture for him.
One side is for the reputation of his family, while the other side is for the lives of thousands of people.
How could Bi Hanlin rest well under such a struggle?
Turning back and looking at the crowd below, Bi Hanlin finally spoke.
"Are you confident in this battle?"
Bi Hanlin's voice was so loud that it spread even in the huge military camp.
But his words did not receive any response.
The officers and soldiers below were silent, as if Bi Hanlin's words had been swallowed up by their silence.
How could the officers and soldiers below not know what they were going to face next?
How could we not know the terror of Qin Kou?
Let's not talk about whether Qin Kou has evil magic or whether he is the reincarnation of a god. He currently has over 10,000 troops.
It's not something they can easily take down with their few manpower.
Even for them, let alone winning, they probably don't even have the ability to compete with him.
Looking around at the crowd below, Bi Hanlin saw veterans who were almost fifty and recruits who were fifteen or sixteen years old.
Most of them were transferred here. As for how they were transferred, Bi Hanlin knew very well.
They were all captured directly from ordinary people.
Are they wrong?
That’s right!
But it was such innocent people who were directly dragged over to make up for their crimes, and came to act as scapegoats.
Bi Hanlin still remembers that many of the new officers and soldiers were hungry and emaciated.
If it weren't for the fact that he had eaten, drank, and strengthened training in this barracks during these days, how would he be where he is now?
But even if there is, so what?
How could they be enemies of the Qin invaders?
What's more, now Qin Kou's fighting spirit is soaring.
And they were all forced to come here, or they were just veterans. Who really wanted to go up and fight?
If there really is a fight, let alone a battle, it would be better if the entire army is defeated immediately.
Taking a deep breath, Bi Hanlin looked around, then turned around and returned to the military tent.
Seeing the general returning to the military tent, everyone present was stunned for a moment.
When Bi Hanlin's soldiers saw this, they quickly followed him.
In the big account.
Bi Hanlin slumped powerlessly on the throne, and his subordinates were his generals.
"General..."
Before the general below finished speaking, Bi Hanlin on the main seat waved his hand.
"Withdraw the order! With their current condition, they cannot go to attack that boy named Qin..."
Bi Hanlin's voice was filled with helplessness and exhaustion.
It seems that in an instant, he has aged more than ten years.
A dignified border defense general, how majestic is that?
But now, it has ended up like this.
"General! No! If the order is withdrawn at this time, Xie Qingshan will definitely use this as an excuse to prevent the general from raising his head in front of the Holy Lord!"
None of the generals below are fools, and they all know the consequences of withdrawing their orders at this moment.
In their hearts, these rabble can die, but the general cannot be questioned by the Holy One because of this!
Don't let this disgrace the general!
"General! I know that the general is doing this for the good of the mob outside, but general... we don't want to see you, general..."
Before he finished speaking, Bi Hanlin raised his head and looked at him with a smile.
"But those are thousands of lives! Thousands of lives! How can they be buried in the sea because of me?"
