"Black sail white python banner! It’s the black sail white python banner! Quickly, to the right!" The Liang soldiers let out ghostly screams.
"Report..." The soldier, drenched by the torrential rain and unable to open his eyes, rushed to the command tent, cupped his fists, and shouted, "Report to the Commander! The Jin Army is attacking from three sides. Jin Commanders Liu Hong and Lin Kangle are personally leading the troops. The flanks are the black sail white python banner and the Fu character banner!"
The soldiers kneeling outside the command tent glanced back: "Commander, please leave the camp and retreat immediately to avoid any mishaps!"
One more moment and it would be too late!
Commander Liu Hong, Lin Kangle, Fu Ruoxi, and another... the one Xun Tianzhang feared the most, Bai Qingyan, the most formidable general of the Jin Army, they were all here!
Xun Tianzhang suddenly grasped the elusive insight he had been missing. His face turned pale: "No good! It’s a trap! Quickly! Send someone to chase down General Xun on the Pingming Road immediately and have him turn back to reinforce us. The main force of the Jin Army is attacking the camp! Hurry!"
At the moment he heard the black sail white python banner being mentioned, Xun Tianzhang realized what the elusive insight was. He had been too careless and fell into the trap!
He thought he had understood the situation, believing Bai Qingyan had noticed he had sent people to watch the supply routes and knew his intention to divide and conquer the Jin forces attacking the supply routes. Thus, he destroyed the other routes, leaving just one. The main purpose was to cut off the Liang Army’s supplies, causing them to defeat themselves without a fight.
Especially after hearing that Bai Qingyan and Fu Ruoxi had led troops to Pingming Road, Xun Tianzhang was even more certain of his judgment. He had his son lead heavy troops to Pingming Road, intending to crush the Jin main force in one battle, not expecting that the Jin Army was diverting attention to attack the Liang Camp!
Xun Tianzhang thought he was the yellow sparrow behind the mantis, not realizing that a python had emerged behind him!
Xun Tianzhang’s spine felt cold, his bloodshot eyes trembling, fearing that his son would not return in time with the troops, causing the Liang Army to lose part of its forces in this battle.
Even more terrifying... The Daliang Kingdom had been intimidated by the Bai family army for decades, not daring to act rashly. Now, with Bai Weiting’s granddaughter, Young General Bai, leading the Bai family army, capturing their fierce Liang General Zhao Tong in three moves had already frightened the Liang soldiers. If they won this battle, the Liang Army’s morale would plummet. How could they ever hope to win when they see the black sail white python banner again?!
"Commander, please leave the camp and retreat to reunite with General Xun!" The Liang leaders outside the tent continued to plead.
Xun Tianzhang, having thought things through, calmed down. He clenched his teeth, put on his helmet, walked to the weapon rack, picked up his sword, and strode outside.
He was the army’s commander. How could he flee when the enemy attacked the camp?!
If he fled, it would mean admitting defeat! The morale of the Liang soldiers would plummet, and they would have no chance of winning!
The Liang leaders outside the tent saw Xun Tianzhang readying for the battle in advance and hurried to stop him: "Commander, you cannot go!"
Ignoring their objections, Xun Tianzhang braved the rain as he emerged from the command tent, calling out, "Summon all camp commanders immediately!" ƒгeewёbnovel.com
With his mind steadied, Xun Tianzhang quickly summoned the commanders and made rapid adjustments. The chaotic Liang Camp gradually became orderly again.
"General Liu, General Li, defend the right flank! General Shi, General Sima, defend the left flank! Heavy cavalry, armor up immediately and gather in the camp, ready for orders! General Qian, surround the heavy cavalry with infantry. On my command, charge out with the heavy cavalry and leave no Jin soldier alive! We must let the Jin Army know that we, the Liang Army, are wolves, not sheep! Make the Jin Army fear us! Make them tremble at the sight of our banners!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
