Back in the capital, Chen Tian's martial arts skills had already seemed much stronger thanks to Bai Su's personal instruction. Of course, Chen Tian's true martial arts prowess was far greater than he let on.
But Bai Su still couldn't let Chen Tian go into battle like him, for he was worried that he would get hurt.
After hearing what Bai Su said, Chen Tian did not insist on going to the battlefield.
He knew that no matter how much he said, his lover would never let him go. He knew Bai Su too well, so he never made such a request at all and looked very obedient.
But when Bai Su left, Chen Tian immediately changed into the clothes of an ordinary soldier, mixed into the army, and quietly followed Bai Su.
The battlefield is changing rapidly, and he must stay by his lover's side and protect him.
This time the enemy came with great force and the battle between the two armies was in a stalemate. If it weren't for Bai Su leading the troops, I'm afraid they would not be a match for Dayan.
Chen Tian frowned, killing the enemies around him while keeping an eye on Bai Su's movements.
At this moment, Bai Su was already fighting with the enemy general. The general was very powerful, but in Chen Tian's opinion, he was not Bai Su's opponent.
However, while Bai Su was busy dealing with the general, he did not notice that an archer in the distance was quietly aiming at his back.
Chen Tian's heart trembled upon seeing this. He immediately raised his silver spear and rushed forward. He stood behind Bai Su and deflected the incoming arrow with a single shot.
But this action also exposed him in front of Bai Su. Bai Su's eyes suddenly widened. He didn't expect that this man could sneak into the army without telling him.
Bai Su was distracted by Chen Tian, and the enemy general's long sword came swinging at him. He was in no time to dodge and was about to be injured. Fortunately, Chen Tian was alert, raised his spear, and threw it with all his strength, piercing the enemy general's throat in an instant.
When the enemy saw their general being beheaded, their morale was naturally shaken, and they were defeated by Xiliang's army.
Bai Su returned with a great victory, and Chen Tian, who not only saved Bai Su's life but also killed the enemy general, naturally made a great contribution.
Everyone looked at him with fanatical eyes, and those who had looked down on him and treated him coldly before immediately changed their attitude.
Chen Tian didn't think there was anything wrong with that. If you wanted others to respect you, you had to have the capital to be respected. Especially in this battlefield where life was at stake and strength was respected.
After returning, Chen Tian received a warm welcome. People around him praised him, recognized his bravery on the battlefield, and felt that he was worthy of Bai Su.
Only Bai Su had a cold expression the entire time, saying nothing. He silently led Chen Tian back to their tent.
As soon as Bai Su entered the tent, before he could even speak, Chen Tian immediately walked up to him. He quickly grabbed his ears with both hands, squatted on the ground, and said to him in a cute way: "Bai Su, I know I was wrong!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Su looked down at the young man in front of him who was pretending to be pitiful, and was silent for a while as he looked at his current appearance.
Chen Tian was quite tall in his life. In the past, when he stood with Bai Su, Bai Su would have to raise his head slightly to look at him.
At this moment, the tall and strong young man was squatting in front of him, as if he was afraid of being scolded by him, which made Bai Su feel helpless.
He had always been tolerant of Chen Tian. If it were in the past, he would have let him get up long ago. But this time, he forced himself to hold back, still with a dark face, and said to him coldly: "Then do you know where you are wrong?"
"I shouldn't have disobeyed you and gone to the battlefield!" Chen Tian said sullenly.
"Since you knew that, why did you still go? I warned you repeatedly that there are no eyes on the battlefield. What if something happens to you? What if you get injured by the enemy?"
Bai Su's words were filled with obvious anger, and Chen Tian could naturally hear it. But he also felt wronged. Bai Su was afraid that he would get hurt, but wasn't he afraid that his lover would get hurt?
"I know you're worried about me, so I'm here to admit my mistake. I don't want you to be angry!"
Chen Tian looked up at Bai Su with his tiger eyes, and said pitifully, "But, for the same reason, I have to give it back to you!"
"Bai Su, have you ever thought that I would also be worried when you were on the battlefield?
Swords have no eyes, this is a truth that everyone understands. If you are really injured, what should I do!
Have you ever thought that I am worried about you as well? Rather than staying in the barracks and being frightened, I would rather go to the battlefield and fight alongside you! "
As Chen Tian spoke, he reached out and grabbed the corner of Bai Su's clothes. Seeing that he didn't struggle, he tentatively held his hand.
Bai Su sighed when he heard this. He knew that Chen Tian was right, but even so, he still couldn't bear to let him go. Fortunately, he was not really injured this time.
Thinking back to the countless times in the past when the other party had told him that he had a desire to fight on the battlefield or to venture into the world of martial arts.
Xing Zhongchen is now realizing his ambitions. Do I really want to stop him?
Bai Su felt a little conflicted, but finally chose to compromise under Chen Tian's serious gaze.
Maybe this person was born to defeat me. At worst, I just have to take good care of him on the battlefield.
So in the next battle, with Bai Su's permission, Chen Tian could follow him to the battlefield and fight side by side with his lover.
He was a skilled warrior and a fierce fighter, like a genius born for the battlefield. He was attracting more and more attention and becoming more and more dazzling.
Even General Liu, while recuperating from his injuries, heard a lot about Chen Tian. Those people told him how brave Chen Tian was on the battlefield, and when they occasionally saw him training in the camp, where he could truly fight ten men at once, they felt that he was a rare talent.
General Liu even mentioned to Bai Su that he intended to personally submit a memorial to the emperor. It would be a waste to keep such a promising young man only in the inner chambers.
General Liu thought Bai Su would be happy to hear this, but he frowned and refused, "Thank you, Brother Liu, but that's not necessary."
General Liu was stunned for a moment before realizing what was happening. He smiled and said, "I'm being nosy. Xing Zhongchen doesn't need me to pass on a memorial. He has someone like you, a Nine Thousand Years Old, to protect him. He's sure to have a bright future ahead of him!"
General Liu spoke happily, but he had no idea of the bitterness in Bai Su's heart.
Bai Su's emotions were complicated as he watched the increasingly dazzling Chen Tian. It wasn't that he didn't want to be happy for his beloved, but he couldn't help but feel suspicious and uneasy.
If Xing Zhongchen had struggled in the Xing family in the past, perhaps being with me would have been a good choice. But now, he'd come to a place that suited him and was gradually making a name for himself. If he truly achieved something, would he still be willing to be with me?
Will Xing Zhongchen want to leave me?
Even if the other person is a homosexual, how could such a good person be willing to be with a eunuch?
By then, naturally, there will be many men and women who will fall for him, and there will definitely be others to take his place...
Bai Su's mind was restless, and even his spirit was unstable. Chen Tian immediately noticed his strong spirit fluctuations.
Having lived with his lover in so many worlds, Chen Tian certainly knew the reason for Bai Su's condition. It was a pity that he didn't have any good opportunities to prove himself now.
For Chen Tian, fame, wealth, and other external things were never important. He had followed Bai Su here because he couldn't bear to leave him. But more importantly, he wanted to be on the battlefield at all times, protecting Bai Su's safety. Therefore, he couldn't help but show some strength.
It seems that we can only stabilize the border first, and deal with other things when we find an opportunity later.
With 009 around, Chen Tian had already realized, ahead of Bai Su, that the Crown Prince and Xing Cheng were collaborating with the enemy. The geese's aggressive arrival was definitely related to them.
However, gathering evidence is not so easy. It seems that many things can only be done slowly.
Since the last defeat at Dayan, they had sent in a new commander. This commander was extremely difficult to deal with. Although Xiliang might not lose if the war continued, it would undoubtedly be a waste of money and manpower.
Bai Su naturally didn't want to fight a protracted war. These days, the soldiers always gathered together to discuss, trying to find a better strategy and achieve the final victory quickly.
One day, when everyone was puzzled by the battle formation diagram, Lieutenant General Li suddenly came in from outside and told everyone with a happy face that the spies he had planted on the enemy side had sent a secret report saying that the enemy commander would lead a small group of elite soldiers and planned to launch a surprise attack on the food and fodder transported to our side tomorrow night.
"Isn't this perfect! We can now use the enemy's trick against us! Then, after we kill that Dayan commander, their army will be in chaos!" Upon hearing this, Deputy General Wang slapped his thigh and said happily.
When everyone heard this, they were very happy and felt that this was an opportunity sent by God.
However, Bai Su was more cautious and asked again, "General Li, can you confirm that this news is true?"
"It's absolutely true! How dare you, Nine Thousand Year Old Man, not believe what I, Old Li, say? This news is absolutely true!" After saying this, Li looked at General Liu excitedly and said, "General Liu, this opportunity is too good to be missed! Once you lose it, it will never come back again!"
General Liu nodded. Having worked together for many years, he still trusted Lieutenant General Li. He immediately decided to take advantage of this opportunity.
Lieutenant General Li also suggested division of labor and cooperation, saying that he was worried that the commander would escape, so it would be best to divide the troops into two groups to encircle the enemy.
But he said with a look of embarrassment: "But if we want to outflank them, one of our teams will have to go around to the forest in the back. The road over there is very rugged and difficult to travel. If we are not careful, we might get lost easily!"
"Indeed, it is not reassuring for ordinary people to go there. General Liu is most familiar with the mountain road over there, but the general's injury has not healed yet..." Deputy General Wang was also troubled when he heard this.
"In that case, I'll go."
Bai Su spoke. After he arrived here, he first familiarized himself with the terrain here and became familiar with the mountains and forests behind.
So, in the end, it was decided that Deputy General Wang would lead the troops to ambush, while Bai Su and Chen Tian would take a small road to encircle the enemy.
But when Bai Su and Chen Tian were about to arrive at the destination as planned, they noticed something was wrong.
009 also immediately reported to Chen Tian that the system had detected a large number of enemy troops lying in ambush in the mountains and forests ahead.
