It was already the third day since Alaire’s defeat that Delin received from Star Sparrow. When he saw Lyle’s letter and the passage of the defeat, he frowned slightly, not expecting the city of Ikuda. The defenders of the army have experienced such a disaster, and several first-tier and second-tier masters have not obtained any advantage in their hands, it seems that it is a very difficult bone. Delin was puzzled by this letter and found Bachelor Sima. After reading the letter, the bachelor was speechless for a while, and said to Delin, "Delin, do you have any ideas?"
"Victory or defeat is actually not very important. What is important now is how to regain the morale and vigor of the recruits. The most important thing is to get those recruits together without any difficulties. The entire Alemirtra province will have an adverse effect on our army. Arrogance, complacency, and inflation will make our army decline rapidly. Once setbacks are encountered, it will be more terrifying than the next big defeat. It’s really because the military's mind is lost and everything will be in vain. So this big defeat is also a wake-up call for our army. After all, we are still a new army and we have not yet reached the time to be proud." Delin said to the bachelor after thinking about it.
"Yes, the three cities won are too simple, and Allaire's complacency is understandable." The bachelor also agreed with Delin's view, and found a support point for Allaire's complacency.
"But being complacent too early as a coach is not a good thing for our army! My opinion is to withdraw first and run these three cities. There are still more recruits being trained on the hills, and we It is also possible to recruit troops locally, so there is no shortage of troops and funds. Our current lack is what the people want here. If our army can give them a better life, then the people's aspirations can be seen. With the support of the people, no matter how big the city is, it will be broken from the inside. I wonder if the bachelor has any amendments to my opinion?" Delin told Bachelor Sima what he thought in his heart.
"Haha, the opinions are good, but unfortunately Allaire can't listen to it now. It seems that he will never return unless he can't fight, especially if you put forward the suggestion to retreat and rest. I won't obey it any more. Let me send this opinion to Allaire. After all, they are all young lads. It is a pity to die on the battlefield like this." Bachelor Sma smiled and said to Delin.
"Then there will be Bachelor of Law." Delin bowed to Bachelor Sma and left the city lord mansion.
Regarding whether Alaire follows Bachelor Sima’s opinion or his opinion, Delin doesn’t care about it for the time being. Through the crazy practice these days, the sword style in the sword classic has been basically mastered, and the more the sword style is Fluent, the more fighting energy gathered in the Qi Gathering Array. Now he is about to reach the top of Tier 1, so he put aside everything in his mind, concentrates on cultivation, and reaches the level of Tier 2 as soon as possible. He faintly feels that a storm is coming. Now, the enemy's counterattack will be fierce. Without strength, there will be nothing, and no city can be defended.
Back to their residence, Karin and Nicole are both present, Delin asked them to leave all the things at hand to their own hands to do. In the near future, they should concentrate on cultivation, break through to the second level as soon as possible, and also take their worries into consideration. I told the second girl, so the second girl put down everything in her hands and learned the sword style in the sword classic with Delin.
Alaire took the letter sent to him by Bachelor of Sma, which made Alaire very irritated after reading it. He didn't want to just retreat without face. A fortified battle turned into a defeated battle. At this time, the rear asked him to retire and recuperate. How could he be willing? Lyle looked at Alaire's expression, knowing that there must be no result that Alaire wanted in this letter. Seeing that Alaire didn't show it to him, he didn't mention it very interestingly. Alaire thought for a while or passed the letter to Lyle. After Lyle read it, he asked: "What is the military commander's opinion?" The voice was still cold.
Lyle thought for a while and said: "General, I think the bachelor's advice is very good. Now the morale of our army is already unusable, and the army is relatively short. If you encounter this kind of defeat, you need to go back and sum it up. It’s not the time when we can do it for a while. I think we’d better return to Jiangsa City and order Karl and Delin to operate these three cities and get some local people’s approval. Even then, even if the newly self-appointed Grand Duke thought of No one will come out from within us to respond to our use of troops! I wonder what the general wants?"
Alaire smashed his raised fist on the case of Shuai fiercely, gritted his teeth and wanted to say the word "Retire" from his mouth, but his self-esteem didn't allow him to say it, just struggling there, God. The people fought, and finally Alaire squeezed out two words from his teeth: "Get out!"
Lyle looked at Alaire who was unable to lie on the collapse after retiring. He also felt sad, but those who made big things did not stick to the gains and losses of one city and one place, and he was able to bend and stretch out to show his heroic qualities. However, it was not easy for Allaire to be able to choose this way. As soon as he turned to Lyle and went down to arrange for the retreat, many soldiers screamed excitedly when they heard that they were about to retreat. This made Allaire sound very harsh, but there was no way. The army’s war weariness had already been revealed. Undoubtedly, compulsory suppression would only be counterproductive. I had to cover my ears and pretend to be indifferent.
When several commanders heard that they were about to retreat, they also knew that they would not be able to advance their troops without spending money. Retreating was the best choice, so they arranged for their guards to pack, arrange the retreat route, and rest.
At midnight, the Tural Army retreated towards Jiangsa City without any lights. There was almost no noise and the camp tent was not removed. Lyle said that leaving the camp tent here would not arouse the enemy’s suspicion. If you are chased by the enemy on your way, your retreat will be defeated, and you will never be able to find it if you lose your military spirit. Alaire accepted the suggestion and left the entire camp when he retreated that night.
When Nick learned that Tural’s army had retired at noon the next day, Nick deplored it. If they knew they were going to retreat, sending a team of cavalry could completely defeat the new army. I will never come to Yikuda City again, but unfortunately the great opportunity was missed.
Arrange for the internal affairs assistant official's battle report and the specific situation to write a report, send someone directly to the city lord, and let the newly self-appointed grand duke decide how to deal with this newly-started Tural army.
Ten days later, Alaire returned to Jiangsa City, took a day's rest and handed the defense of the city to Fanta and the new interior officer, and set off back to Tuya City.
Delin and Bachelor Smar lined up outside the east gate of Tua City to wait for Alaire’s return. Presumably Alaire’s mood is not very good at this time, so things like celebration banquets are not on the agenda, just put on the agenda. A table of simple dust washing wine.
The dust was flying in the distance, and the color formed by the dust in the sky could represent Allaire's depressed mood at this time, yes, it was depressed. A big defeat made Allaire know exactly how strong he is now, and he thought a lot along the way, especially for Delin’s pressure has made some people look at it, plus this defeat made him. Feeling the danger of instability in his position, he finally decided to use Delin. After all, when Lyle was alone, it was indeed a little bit less. For the entire army operation, one military division was really not enough. When he thought of confessing his mistake and bowing his head, he was unwilling, but there was no way. Now, when he lacks talents and needs him most, he must first compromise and clean up after the restoration of the country is successful.
With such thoughts, Alaire reconciled with Delin at the east gate of Tua City. This made Lyle and others very excited. Everyone also congratulated Delin and Alaire on the dust washing wine, Alaire. I resisted the anger in my heart and talked with each other. I also asked Bachelor Sima and Delin for help about the recent management problems of the three cities. In the eyes of others, the two have reconciled. Delin and Sima have been reconciled. The bachelor knew that this was a compromise he had to compromise, not out of sincerity, so he talked about his own ideas and ideas without a match.
After the banquet, Delin went back to his room, thinking about his experience just now made him feel a little nervous. An impulse to leave now appeared in his mind, but it was dissipated by him. Before I fulfilled the promise to Alaire, I would never be able to leave, otherwise it will become a demon of my heart and will affect my future cultivation. Delin picked up the Yunhai Sword and came to the courtyard to practice the sword style according to the sword code. He practiced it over and over again. As Delin's mood changed, the sword style also changed. Slowly, Delin and the sword style seemed to change. As a whole, the sword is dancing and the people are dancing, the sword goes with the person, the person moves with the sword, and the state of the union of the human and the sword makes Delin realize a little bit of kendo from it.
He did not stop, but continued to dance with the sword, letting the sword intent follow his hand and penetrate his skin little by little into his heart, into his sea of qi, into his brain, and into him. This is a perception, a perception of swords, a perception of kendo, and a perception of humanity. It dances like this. The meaning of swordsmanship is like a closed gate in front of Delin's eyes. Opened up, Delin was silent in this sword dance with an unprecedented feeling. A strong vindictive spirit between heaven and earth rushed towards the small courtyard where Delin was. Everyone didn’t know what had happened. They rushed towards Delin’s residence, but they were stopped by Karin and Nicole just as they were about to enter. Go outside and tell them what Delin is comprehending, it's better not to disturb him. Everyone understands that once and for all, it is an unforgettable opportunity to comprehend. If anyone breaks this opportunity, there is one of the three great things for warriors (the three great things are: the enemy of killing the father, The hatred of taking away his wife, disturbing the comprehension), so everyone went outside to protect Delin.
