Complaining, resentful, angry, lashing out ….
All emotions Lin Ran had felt, and his men were no exception.
And after these emotions were vented, the war was still waiting for them.
The reality is so cruel, in front of war human life is not worth anything, let alone discontent, who cares.
The next day, Ba Xia still came out to call for war as usual.
And after all, Long Mo did not go back on his word and sent in his elite soldiers to a*sist Lin Ran.
With the addition of the elite soldiers, the pressure on Lin Ran’s side was significantly reduced.
The two sides fought back and forth with losses on both sides.
But at the last moment, for some unknown reason, Bajia suddenly chose to withdraw his troops, and he did so in a great hurry, as if something big had happened behind him.
“Should we go after them?”
Fire One Sword and the others ran over and asked.
Previously, they had been evenly matched, and although both sides had suffered damage it could not affect the big picture at all.
And now that the people on Bashful’s side had retreated in fear, their defences were no threat at all, so if Lin Ran and the others went after them, there was a chance that they could seriously damage their opponents.
“Don’t chase!”
Lin Ran pondered for a moment and said.
“Good!”
Fire One Sword and the others naturally trusted Lin Ran, and didn’t even ask why, and immediately went down to make arrangements.
It was just that Fire One Sword and the others understood Lin Ran, but the other generals did not.
The other side had obviously disorganised themselves, and they were actually not chasing after such a good opportunity.
But for the sake of the previous merits of Lin Ran’s wisps, they held back from saying anything.
…..
The time pa*sed day by day, and it seemed to have become a habit for Baitian to come and call for battle every day.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into.
As they fought again and again, not only Lin Ran but also the others gradually noticed a problem.
It seemed that recently, Ba Xia and the others were in very bad shape and often made mistakes.
For example, today, when Bajaj and the others were halfway through the battle, the crowd’s Daoist armour actually suddenly lost its effect.
This situation could not help but make Ba Xia and the others confused, even Lin Ran and the others were a little confused.
A problem with the Dao Soldier Armour was no less than having a problem with a weapon in battle.
“Kill!”
With Lin Ran’s order, Ba Xia and the others only had to start fleeing in haste.
Without the support of their Dao soldier armour, they simply couldn’t stop Lin Ran’s side’s combined attack formation.
Furthermore, almost all of the soldiers within the Heavenly City now had already started practising the Combined Attack Formation.
So in front of the Hegemony army without the Dao Soldier Armour, the team with the Combined Attack Formation was almost unstoppable.
“Stop! Stop chasing!”
After chasing the Hegemonian army for just ten miles, Lin Ran ordered them to start retreating.
This caused many people to be extremely puzzled, and even discontented.
Finally, after Lin Ran led the group back to Heavenly City, these accumulated discontent exploded.
It was unknown who had started it, but as soon as Lin Ran entered the city, he was surrounded by a group of soldiers.
“What do you want?”
Li Ba asked as he looked at the hostages.
They had just returned in triumph, could it be that these people still wanted to rebel.
“We’re looking for Lin Ran!”
One of the leading men said.
Lin Ran knew him, he had been among the cheering crowd when he had won his first and second fights with Baji, and had recently followed Lin Ran in his battles with Baji.
He had recently fought with Lin Ran in his battles against Baji, and his achievements were not insignificant.
It was only his actions at this moment that caused Lin Ran to frown slightly.
“Commander Lin, you should be very clear about what we are looking for you!”
“Clearly!”
Lin Ran nodded his head.
“Then we would like to hear an explanation from Commander Lin!”
The other party said in a cold voice, looking very puzzled and angry.
“There’s nothing to explain!”
Lin Ran said indifferently.
“If you guys don’t understand my tactical arrangements and I have to explain them, do I not have to do anything every day and just explain them to you guys here every day?”
Lin Ran looked at his opponent.
Every day he had to deal with Bashful’s call for battle, but he also had to analyse all sorts of possibilities.
Every day, Leng Zhan and the others would bring back different situations.
It was also this information that allowed Lin Ran to know exactly how far he would have to go tomorrow.
At this moment, he simply did not have time to waste here.
“Commander Lin! You may shirk and not explain, but all the generals can see it in their eyes, there is a profound difference between what you are doing now and before, do you want us to admit that we have misjudged the man?”
“How do you want us to explain to those who died in battle?”
The other party’s voice was loud and angry.
Lin Ran frowned slightly.
“What the hell are you trying to say!”
“What am I trying to say? I’m trying to say that for almost a month, the other side has clearly made major mistakes on several occasions, so why aren’t we riding the wave?”
“But whenever we took a chance, we would have hit the enemy hard, but why didn’t you give the order! Instead, you retreated?”
“Are you doing this to those soldiers who fought to the death?”
“Or are you also a rotten vulgar man who doesn’t want to get credit but not to get blame!”
“What are you talking about!”
On the side, Wang Yifeng was furious at his words and rolled up his arms and sleeves, about to go forward and beat someone up, but fortunately he was stopped by Lin Ran.
Lin Ran shook his head, and then looked at the other party and said.
“You only know about those who died in battle, do you care about those who are still alive?”
Lin Ran said and pointed to the crowd around him.
“Eight out of ten of the people here have recently followed me into battle together, ask them, do they want to die? Including yourself, do you really want to die?”
The other side was silent.
“There are many weaknesses in Baji, but have you thought about it yourselves? Did he make any mistakes in the first week after he had suffered one?”
“Why did he make more and more mistakes later on, and why did he make mistakes at the end when he had started to play well! Use your heads!”
“This is a battlefield, not a school fight, one mistake could cost you and your life, is Basham an idiot?”
“Can’t you guys see that such an obvious baiting of the enemy is going deep?”
The crowd was silent as Lin Ran finished speaking.
He gave the men one last look and said.
“You can say that I, Lin Ran, don’t seek merit but no fault!”
“But I can tell you very clearly that until I am absolutely certain, I cannot allow my soldiers to risk their lives to verify whether the other side really missed or had an ambush!”
“If you don’t want to, feel free to refuse to participate in the battle!”
After saying that, Lin Ran turned his side and walked away.
And at that moment, those disgruntled soldiers were silent.
They looked at the direction Lin Ran left without a glance.
Lin Ran didn’t expect their understanding, but he definitely wouldn’t be impulsive.
Even if the discontent of these soldiers was as great as it was, he would still stick to his deployment.
Still, this was not a group fight where you could still go to hospital for ten days and a half months afterwards.
This was a battlefield, and any mistake in decision making would likely require the lives of many to fill.
So Lin Ran could not afford to make a mistake, and he would not allow the generals under his command to have their lives buried because of his own mistakes.
