Chapter 488: Grasshoppers Are Different
Grasshoppers on the same rope cannot dance differently.
King Cheng and King Li have not yet ruled their own country, and now they can only work together to deal with Jiang Lin. Naturally, no one has the right to make conditions.
However, after King Cheng left, King Li had some other ideas.
During the time when Prince Han was ill, Prince Li did not receive any response from Jiang Lin. Now he was attacked by Jiang Lin, but this made Prince Li more certain of Jiang Lin's strength.
Although they are both sons of King Han, King Li could not have failed to notice King Han's favoritism towards King Cheng. Now is King Li's chance.
If the Cold King was still alive, they would unite to capture them and expand their own power, but...
King Li did not have such great ambitions, and he was willing to let him guard a piece of land.
"Are these the only ones left among you?"
When King Cheng saw that King Li had only half as many people with him, he looked at him with anger.
"You know how many troops we've lost these days. It's truly remarkable that I'm still able to bring out so many." King Li said sternly, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
King Li turned the tables, and King Cheng sneered, "Brother, I was wrong about you before. I didn't know you had such thoughts."
"What do you mean, brother?" King Li said calmly, "I don't know what I'm thinking. Why don't you tell me clearly?"
With a mocking look on his face towards King Li, King Cheng said "I know it very well" and walked straight to the front.
King Li looked at him gloomily, then followed him.
"Sir, we're only five miles ahead." The sentry turned around and said to Jiang Lin, "Their men are all out guarding."
"Keep moving forward." Jiang Lin raised his hand and ran forward with a group of soldiers.
Due to the victories in recent days, the morale in the rear was very high. Everyone was very excited and shouted awe-inspiring slogans with all their might.
People miles away heard it, and there was a clear contrast in morale between the two sides.
Those voices were shouting to the foreigners that we were coming. The series of defeats made them panic, but they could not retreat because they also had places they wanted to defend.
"There are no weaklings among us foreigners!" King Cheng shouted, "We are all strong men. We cannot let others bully us. Let us fight with all our might and hold our ground!"
"Hold the position! Hold the position!" The people in the rear also started shouting.
In this land, the shouts from both sides broke the balance of the land, startled the birds nearby, and the clouds in the sky seemed to be looking over to see what kind of grand spectacle would happen.
When there was only one mile between the two sides, they stopped at the same time.
"Prince Jiang, I used to think you were a gentleman, but your actions in recent days have disappointed me greatly." King Cheng shouted at Jiang Lin.
He shouted until his throat hurt, and only then was he able to show his full strength.
Jiang Lin leisurely picked up the microphone and easily shouted out a voice loud enough to suppress Cheng Wang.
King Cheng's face turned dark blue, and Jiang Lin frankly didn't care about his opinion at all.
"You are harboring ill intentions, and I am merely retaliating. If you promise to return to the foreign land and not attack again, I will withdraw my troops immediately and release all your people."
Jiang Lin made this promise, but King Cheng did not accept it.
Without hearing King Cheng's reply, Jiang Lin knew what he meant. "Since King Cheng doesn't want to leave, then I have nothing else to say. If you don't want to leave, I should drive you away."
"Second brother, Prince Jiang is determined to defeat us. We are now..." King Li said in King Cheng's ear.
"Brother, why do you help others to gain prestige and destroy your own prestige? We foreigners are not so cowardly!" King Cheng shouted angrily.
King Li's eyes darkened a little, and after exhaling a breath of foul air, he said to King Cheng, "Well, since you're going to hit the wall before turning back, I won't stop you."
"What do you mean?" King Cheng widened his eyes and looked at him in disbelief.
"Ask yourself, can we defeat them now?" King Li said.
"Are you going to surrender?" King Cheng glared at him. "If my father knew you had such thoughts, he would..."
"What else can father do now?" King Li said shamelessly, "You and I both know it very well."
Although the two men were arguing in low voices, they were heard by those nearby. Such a thing happening on the battlefield would undoubtedly be harmful rather than helpful to them.
They were arguing, Jiang Lin was watching, and Qin Guang was looking through the telescope given by Qin Xiangnuan.
"The two brothers are now disagreeing, and I don't know what they are arguing about." Qin Guang said.
Jiang Lin also took a look when he heard this. King Cheng was so tempted to rush up and beat King Li up. He shouldn't have trusted King Li. This coward would only hold him back.
"We'll just wait." Jiang Lin said.
No one wants to see the destruction of lives on the battlefield, and Jiang Lin does not necessarily have to kill all the foreign people. This is just one of the means.
If it can be resolved peacefully, I believe many people will choose to do so.
King Cheng and King Li were at a stalemate, but King Cheng had to admit the fact that their chances of losing this battle were extremely high and the current situation was difficult to reverse.
However, defeat without a fight is something King Cheng would never choose.
"Second brother, I don't want to see any more casualties."
When King Cheng was furious, King Li suddenly said this.
King Cheng narrowed his eyes, "Brother, have you been secretly colluding with Jiang Lin recently?"
"No," King Li said, "I simply believe that the current situation is extremely unfavorable to us. We should first do everything we can to heal our father, rather than continue to cause casualties here."
"Father, you know what I would like to see more, brother, right?" King Cheng looked at King Li and for the first time changed his opinion of his elder brother.
In the eyes of King Cheng, people without ambition are cowards, and King Li was such a person in the past. They competed to show off in front of King Han, but it was just what they had to do because of their position.
However, today King Li allowed King Cheng to see his initiative and see that he also knew how to make plans.
"Brother, are you planning to surrender in today's battle?" King Cheng said, "I will not let you succeed!"
After saying this, King Cheng turned towards Jiang Lin and the others, raised his arm, and shouted, "All soldiers, listen! King Li commands! Charge!"
The moment King Cheng raised his hand, Jiang Lin and Qin Guang put down what they were holding at the same time.
Jiang Lin didn't expect the other party to choose to take the initiative to attack, but this did not hinder Jiang Lin's orders.
