They weren't stupid. General Guan's words made them seem tolerant and magnanimous, but if they were to act too bluntly, it would be offensive.
Only after seeing General Guan take a sip did they follow suit and take a sip as well.
"I saw you practicing and sparring in the training ground just now. Did you figure out these formations and moves on your own?" General Guan asked bluntly.
The three brothers knew that General Guan had summoned them here for this matter, and they had already rehearsed their explanations in their minds.
Qiao Dayong listened to Lian'er's words and said seriously, "It was decided by the three of us and Lian'er together. It seemed to have some novel ideas, so we thought of using it to train soldiers and see if it would be effective. If it is, it will be of great benefit to the country and the people on the battlefield."
After saying that, her face felt a little hot. Although she didn't take all the credit from Lian'er, she still deserved half of it.
I feel guilty, but they really don't have Lian'er's brains.
General Guan pondered for a moment: "That girl Lian'er, although young, is clever and resourceful. Even though she is a girl, many paths are not easy to take, but with such abilities, her brilliance will not be obscured."
He also has a daughter and a granddaughter. His daughter has fought on the battlefield and killed the enemy, and his granddaughter has also begun to try to learn some simple moves. He does not think that his daughter is inferior to his son, especially in military campaigns. What matters is one's own ability and intelligence. As long as one can win battles, protect the country and its people, and save the lives of more soldiers, one can win the hearts of the people.
Moreover, he noticed that the three brothers looked a little uneasy, and he was afraid that the one who mainly came up with the idea was Lian'er.
General Guan did not expose them. It was quite remarkable that the three brothers were able to train for three days and win in actual combat.
“Just yesterday, we intercepted some intelligence here.” General Guan took a letter out of his sleeve and placed it on the coffee table.
“Take a look.”
Qiao Dayong picked up the letter, read its contents, and was taken aback: "Three thousand people from Kui Niu Kingdom are advancing towards Shouyuan Town, intending to provoke trouble on the border."
"We will reach the border by tomorrow morning."
General Guan nodded: "If you go now, you will meet him tomorrow morning. I originally planned to send General Chu, but now I have decided that you will take your men, a total of 1,500, and another 500. You will fight 3,000 with 2,000 men, using your new formations and techniques. If you can win, you will be rewarded, and your sister will also benefit."
The three exchanged a glance; this meant they were about to go to the battlefield.
I felt a surge of excitement. I thought I would have to wait several years for the chance to go to the battlefield, but I didn't expect it to come so soon.
"Kui Niu Kingdom is a small country, but its people are extremely fierce and its army is also ruthless. Many of its soldiers were former bandits and kill without blinking an eye. They can be described as vicious and wicked."
"Therefore, you must be careful and not underestimate the enemy."
"Such a small country dares to offend the border of my Great Ze Kingdom." Da Cheng snorted.
General Guan said, "Because there is a war in the north, which has tied up most of our forces, the neighboring countries are eager to make a move. The Kui Niu Kingdom is the most restless. It has fought against the Da Ze Kingdom countless times, so it will naturally not give up this opportunity."
"This time, three thousand men are leading the charge. If they can win, it will greatly boost their confidence. What you need to do is bring them frustration and defeat, and let them know that this decision was wrong."
The three brothers felt their ambition surge within them.
“Your father and brothers will also go with you. I heard that you have been to the Kui Niu Kingdom before, so you should have some experience and be able to help you.”
General Guan offered tea to the three of them: "Let's assemble and set off now. May everything go smoothly."
The three of them stood up together to offer tea: "Everything went smoothly."
Da Yong and Da Cheng formed a team, and Da Meng went back to tell his family the news, while also notifying Xiao Meng and his third uncle at home to join the battle.
"Oh, there's going to be a war? You're all going?"
"What? Two thousand people are fighting against three thousand people?"
Grandma Qiao exclaimed twice in surprise.
