Chapter 467: Old Man
In Zhongnan Mountain, Lu Dongbin put the bluestone chessboard back to its original place. Han Zhongli came out of the cave and said, "How?" Lu Dongbin smiled and said, "Sure enough, life is like chess, and everything in the world is unpredictable..." Han Zhongli said
Somewhat surprised, he said: "You sometimes lose when you play chess." Lu Dongbin smiled and said: "Don't I always lose to you, senior brother?", "Hahahaha, what am I talking about? Dongbin is so arrogant and arrogant.
"We are bound to lose. We just happened to bring some good wine. Let's all have a drink and celebrate." Amidst a burst of laughter, a sloppy man with an iron crutch walked out of the cave, and there were five other people beside him, or
There were handsome young men with sideburns and beards, or beautiful women in lotus skirts, all looking at Lu Dongbin with smiles on their faces, without any sympathy for his failure.
Lu Dongbin looked up to the sky and sighed: "I think I, Lu Dongbin, will be famous all my life, but I only make careless friends." Before he finished speaking, a wine gourd flew toward him. He caught it in his hand and drank several sips: "It's really a good wine!"

When Pan Yu faintly woke up, she found that she was back in the camp, with Xu Xian beside her. She smiled and said, "I'm awake." He lifted her up and brought a bowl of water to her mouth.
Pan Yu took a sip of water, moistened his throat, and asked, "How is the war going?"
Xu Xiandao: "Of course it was a great victory. The Hu people were almost completely defeated. Even the Khan was killed in the rebel army. There must have been a big turmoil in the various departments in Caoji, but our army also suffered a lot of losses.
Basically, it means 10,000 injuries to the enemy and 8,000 losses to yourself."
He thought of Lu Dongbin's method of using the chessboard as a battlefield, and couldn't help but sigh: "Is this a fight between gods and mortals suffering?"
Pan Yu stood up and said: "Han Wen, you are too bookish. War between Hu and Han is inevitable. As long as we can win, it is all thanks to the country." Not to mention hurting the enemy ten thousand and losing eight thousand, even if it is one-on-one.
, five to one, or even ten to one exchange, the kings of all ages are probably willing to do so." After all, the number of Hu people is limited. These 100,000 people are already all the soldiers of the grassland, and they will not be able to do anything to the Central Plains for at least several decades.
Threatened."
"I would also like to thank Nalu Dongbin for his help this time. Normally, when fighting against the Hu people, we can only focus on defense. Even if it is a big victory, the Hu people, with the swiftness of their cavalry, can hardly hurt their muscles and bones, and they often can't get past it.
It takes a long time to come back again.”
Xu Xian smiled bitterly. She was the only one who could play this chess game. Otherwise, even if he could really compete with Lu Dongbin in chess skills, he would inevitably be indecisive when he thought that the chess pieces in his hand symbolized the lives of countless people. He could never save human lives.
To be calculated as data, you are not born to be a high-ranking person.
Pan Yu raised her hand to caress Xu Xian's face and said with a smile, "But this is the best."
The soldiers reported outside the tent: "Commander, the generals outside the tent want to see you!" Pan Yu immediately announced that the tent would be reopened. In the awed eyes of the generals, Pan Yu sat in the position of the commander, with Xu Xian standing next to him.
There was a "sonorous" sound in the tent, and the generals fell to the ground and said sincerely: "Congratulations, Commander-in-Chief, for this unparalleled achievement." Although they didn't quite remember what happened on the battlefield, and they didn't even understand it.
Why did the barbarians abandon their usual tactics and choose to fight them on the plains?
But it doesn't matter. On the battlefield, heroes are always judged by victory or defeat. No matter how clever the strategy and tactics are, if they lose, it is nothing more than talk on paper. And even if you only know the simplest frontal attack, as long as you can lead the army to victory, that's it.
A world-famous general.
When Xu Xian saw these fierce generals who did not even frown even when the swords were drawn against them, some of them burst into tears. Even those who did not shed tears could not help but have red eyes. And when he listened attentively, he could hear nothing but laughter in the big tent.
Outside the sound, there were more sounds of sobbing.
Xu Xian was also a little sad in his heart. One can imagine how difficult it was for these soldiers to "resist the barbarian invasion in this bitter cold place outside the Great Wall." Today, they finally defeated the Hu barbarians, and maybe they can return to their hometown again.
And this is all due to her.
Pan Yu ordered the generals to stand down, read the battle report, and immediately ordered people to deliver it to the capital. Then he announced that the troops would return to the city and held a celebration banquet.
The generals agreed with a loud voice, and when the night banquet was held, the generals toasted to Pan Yu one after another. He praised Pan Yu for saying "a tiger father has no dog son" and "a man is better than a man who has learned a lesson". Of course, based on the cultural level of these generals
, basically that’s all.
Xu Xian also drank a few glasses of wine, but suddenly he heard many sounds of pain and groans. He went out on an excuse and looked for the sound. Along the way, he saw many half-drunk soldiers, arm-in-arm singing "Tian Nan Di Bei Bei"
The tune of...
At this time, the lights in the city were brightly lit, and everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, but a house in the west of the city seemed a little dim, and those moans came from here.
There was no one guarding the door. Xu Xian pushed the door open and saw a shocking sight. Amidst the unpleasant smell, wounded soldiers were lying all over the bed. Their pain prevented them from enjoying food and wine, so they could only lie here in despair, waiting to die.
.No soldier who is capable of action is willing to stay here.
Xu Xian had heard a little bit about the poor medical facilities in ancient times, which was particularly inconvenient in the army. Once a plague broke out, the consequences would be even more serious, so that most of the injured soldiers died of pain. But now that he has seen it with his own eyes, he can't help but be shocked.
Xu Xian considered himself to be half a doctor, so naturally he couldn't let these things happen before his eyes and was about to take action.
"People in front, please don't block the way." A voice shouted from behind.
Xu Xian turned around and saw several sergeants surrounding one person. They pushed Xu Xian aside and went to a hospital bed. He began to treat the wounded soldier, only to find out that he was a doctor in the army.
Xu Xian watched from the side and saw that the doctor only bandaged them hastily and applied some golden sore medicine at will. Then he went to the next bed, almost perfunctorily, frowning and said: "You are going to treat them like this?" I thought.
The doctor's back looked vaguely familiar, but the doctor had just been surrounded by a group of tall and powerful soldiers and passed by Xu Xian, and Xu Xian could not see his face clearly.
Dr. Hua turned his head when he heard the sound, with a look of anxiety and impatience on his face: "Don't delay things." Xu Xian finally saw the doctor's face clearly and said in surprise: "Doctor Wu!" It was the doctor who had taken him in when he was in Suzhou.
He had been Wu Renjie for a while, and Xu Xian entrusted him with the huge mansion and Baicao Hall before leaving. How did he end up in the army outside the Great Wall?
Wu Renjie used the dim lights in the camp to see Xu Xian's face clearly, and he also called out: "Xu...Xu..." He hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to call him.
Xu Xiandao: "Just call me my nephew. How did you get here?"!~!
