Chapter 129 Arrogant soldier (1)
The gazes of everyone in the big tent turned to Sun Wu like they really wanted to hear what his opinion was like Zhao Zimu had suggested.
In the past, if Zhao Zimu spoke, she would never say more than necessarily. However, she bluntly pushed the question to another today. So, everyone looked at Sun Wu.
Sun Wu was a fierce general under Chen Jin’s command. Before Zhao Zimu, he could be regarded as the bravest general of the entire northwest and everyone was in awe by him. Even when the Xiongnu faced him, they would be afraid to some degree. However, after Zhao Zimu arrived, the halo on his head had decreased very much in brightness.
Because, compared to what people had always known from the past, perhaps, they were fonder of miracles.
That was right. Zhao Zimu was the miracle. This miracle made people dumbstruck and impassioned. Therefore, the light on general Sun who has always been known to be very brave, has dimmed a bit.
A smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Zimu’s lips as she looked at him. Sun Wu looked at the smile on the face of the young man not far away. The hand that had been originally grasping the armrest of the chair grabbed it tighter. And at this time, he felt that the scar on the end of the young man’s eyebrow was even more dazzling.
The scar on Zhao Zimu’s eyebrow was deep. It was when she cooperated with other troops that she had been shot by an arrow. That arrow originally aimed at the space between her eyebrows, but Zhao Zimu reacted quickly and avoided this calamity.
It was just that it brushed past her nevertheless and left a scar. Because the arrow brushed deep, the military doctor wasn’t able to get rid of the scar no matter what.
The situation was very scary at that time. The blood flowed down her eyebrow, making her face paler. Yue Liu and the others almost wanted to apologize with the death.
Zhao Zimu didn’t dare to let Lin Qing know about this and had forbidden Yue Liu and the others from telling him, otherwise, she didn’t know what would have happened.
The situation on the grassland had begun to become a mess now. Everyone felt that this was a good opportunity. That Chen Jin asked Zhao Zimu the question was obviously wanting to promote her, but she pushed this opportunity to Sun Wu now. What was her intention?
Although Zhao Zimu was young, but many people couldn’t understand what she was doing.
Sun Wu’s brows twisted together and in the end they finally loosened. He suddenly stood up, cupped his hands at Chen Jin and said, “This general is willing to bring twenty thousand men to attack the Xiongnu during their internal strife. At that time, their guard is not up and they are too busy taking care of themselves. We will retreat as soon as we succeed and I ask general to please leave a troop to meet up with us when the time comes. This general will definitely not fail to live up to the expectations!”
After Sun Wu’s words fell, the tent became quiet for a while and the ambiance suddenly became a bit weird. All the generals sitting here were veterans that had been leading the army for many years. They know that Sun Wu’s strategy was feasibly in theory and some people had done it before, but so far only one person who had done it had succeeded. And this successful person is the young man sitting here who has always looked calm.
And can Sun Wu succeed? Maybe?
“Zhao Zhong, what do you think,” Chen Jin asked. He knew that it was perhaps the best for Zhao Zimu to do this kind of thing, but now his old subordinate had brought it up. He couldn’t let his (SW) heart go cold, but he still wanted to hear Zhao Zimu’s opinion. So, he asked this question.
Sun Wu’s eyes tightened and looked at Zhao Zimu stand up, give a simply curtsy, paused for a moment before slowly saying to Chen Jin, “This general think that it is inappropriate to send the troop at this moment.”
The moment this remark fell, it caused puzzled voices in the big tent , “Why inappropriate? Our Great Liang has been harassed from time to time by the Xiongnu before and we could take this opportunity to catch them all!”
A general was excited and genuine. It was precisely because he knew Zhao Zimu’s ability that he didn’t scold Zhao Zimu’s mother, otherwise, it would be strange that his hot temper didn’t come out.
Chen Jin looked at Zhao Zimu in silence for a long time before saying, “Tell me your reasons?”
Zhao Zimu said under the somewhat indignant eyes of everyone, “Although, the Xiongnu are considered to be suspicious of each other now, but in any case, their strength weakened by us is still very small. It wouldn’t be overnight to want to hurt these people of the grassland to the bones. Also, dispatching the troop at this time will turn their attention to us and reduce the level of their internal conflict. So, this general doesn’t agree with sending the troop at this time.”
After Zhao Zimu finished, she sat back in her original place and didn’t move anymore. As the saying goes, it was easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but it was difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Soldiers who were accustomed to victory will certainly not be able to accept the statement that they are weak. Therefore, Zhao Zimu believed that her suggestion would not be accepted.
And she retreated from the battle of this time.
Sure enough, things were as she expected. Chen Jin’s subordinate didn’t accept her suggestion. They all emotionally agreed with Sun Wu’s views and Chen Jin also didn’t seem to agree with her.
From this discussion to the end, Chen Jin finally decided to send the troop to the grassland. This was the first time that he has decided to take the initiative to attack. In the past, he cooperated with Zhao Zimu’s actions in secret. To make this decision after being frustrated for so many years showed how eager Chen Jin was now to take advantage of the Xiongnu’s internal strife to vent his frustration. Hence, this battle couldn’t be stopped by Zhao Zimu or anyone.
Zhao Zimu lowered her eyes and ignored the discussions of the other people in the tent because no one knew the current situation of the Xiongnu better than her. And without her support, Tata would never dare to go against Muke because he has no power. And the current situation of the Xiongnu could be said to have been caused solely by Zhao Zimu.
