Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 351: Being a General (Second Update)

Ye Yunfeng was confused: "Is there another way? Where is it?"

He has been pondering the sand table every day for the past half month. He already knows the terrain near Tongtian Pass very well. Even a small river or a forest is clear to him.

After thinking hard, he only came up with the solution just now, but now Sister A actually said, is there another way?

Ye Yunfeng quickly ran through it in his mind again, and hesitantly said: "Sister, forgive me for being stupid, but I really can't think of a second way through Tongtian Pass that would allow them to successfully break through."

Ye Chutang shook his head slightly, stretched out his hand and touched his heart.

"This road is not on the sand table, but in the heart."

"In your heart?" Ye Yunfeng was even more puzzled, "What does sister mean by this?"

Ye Chutang looked at him calmly, his eyes were like the deepest obsidian, shining brightly in the silence.

She said:

"General Huo leads an army of 80,000 and has a numerical advantage. Even if he is not as familiar with the terrain as the enemy and is taken advantage of, the entire army should not be wiped out so quickly. Even if he insists on fighting to the death, it is enough to last for a while. But in fact , after they found themselves trapped, they quickly became disorganized, collapsed, and were easily wiped out by the opponent. "

Ye Yunfeng pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

Although he was not present and had never seen the battle with his own eyes, he knew that Sister A was right.

After the news of the defeat came, the whole country was in an uproar. No one could have imagined that Huo Yucheng, who had fought countless victorious battles, would collapse at Tongtian Pass and suffer a disastrous defeat.

So later Your Majesty was furious and executed his entire family.

Ye Chutang said: "General Huo's life experience is legendary, and he deserves to be a famous general. But he has a fatal flaw - pride."

Ye Yunfeng's heart moved and he couldn't help but look up at her.

It was already dark at this time, and there were only two candles burning in the room.

The dim yellow light fell on her delicate porcelain white face, and there seemed to be firelight dancing in the dark and quiet eyes.

"Of course he has the capital to be proud of, but as a general, this is the most taboo thing. You can't understand the principle of being too strong and easy to break. His first half of life was too smooth, so that in the battle of Tongtian Pass, the right time, right place, and right people and, he failed to occupy any of them, and was rapidly defeated."

Ye Chutang's tone was still calm, but Ye Yunfeng could faintly hear the turbulent waves beneath the calm!
"If he could have stabilized his position at that time, strengthened his military morale, and commanded the soldiers like using his arms, he might not have been able to put himself to death and survive."

The air in the room seemed to be frozen, only the candle flame flickered, and a candle exploded with a "pop" sound.

Ye Yunfeng's heart also jumped suddenly.

Ye Chutang suddenly asked: "A Feng, do you know what the most powerful army looks like?"

Ye Yunfeng was stunned for a moment, frowning and thinking hard.

"...General Huo, Marquis Dingbei, or...the subordinates of King Yannan?"

Ye Chutang shook his head.

“Only those who lead an army like one and are united as one will be invincible!”

Ye Yunfeng finally understood. He looked shocked and said in disbelief: "What does sister mean... At that station back then, there was also an internal problem at General Huo's side!?"

"I didn't say that."

Ye Chutang looked at him with a faint smile on his lips.
"I'm just telling you, this is the first article I want to teach you in the military book."

"Chaos is born from governance, timidity is born from courage, and weakness is born from strength. To control chaos, it is number; courage and timidity are the power; strength and weakness are the shape."

"If you become a general in the future, with the lives of countless soldiers at stake, you must be brave."

Ye Yunfeng's mind was shaking, and something seemed to be surging crazily in his chest.

In the light and shadow of the candle, that beautiful face is unparalleled.

She smiled and said:
"I will be proud of you too."

...The people from Shuntian Mansion left, taking away Gao's body and the maid who was waiting on him.

The entire courtyard returned to silence, but there was a strange chill in this silence.

Someone dies suddenly, or he hangs himself. The death is so miserable that no one can sleep peacefully that night.

Gao's room was sealed, and no one dared to take a step closer.

After Shaoyao made hot water and was heading to Ye Shixian's room, she heard two boys complaining in low voices at the corner.

"...Our life is so miserable! Why did something like this happen? It doesn't matter that we were kicked out. Just after we settled down here, we made such a fuss again! You said Madam is fine, why? Suddenly committed suicide?"

"Isn't it! Her temper is such that she should hang others. How can she be so cruel as to hang herself?"

"I think she is crazy! First her house was ransacked, and then she lost her son. Who can bear this?"

"Hey, did you see it? Her tongue is hanging out! It's so scary! I heard that after such a person dies, he will turn into a ghost. Do you think she won't come back to seek our lives..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" The other boy was obviously a little scared, "We have done nothing wrong, and we are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door! If she is looking for her, she is also looking for those who have grudges against her... Ah! Sister Shaoyao, Why are you here?"

The boy was startled when he saw the peony that appeared out of nowhere.

This late at night, a figure suddenly and quietly appeared, especially when someone had just died here during the day, how scary it was!
Shaoyao looked very unhappy: "Let you go to work, everyone is just lazing around here!"

The two of them apologized: "We know we were wrong! Sister Shaoyao, please don't tell the eldest lady!"

They have nowhere to go. Now that Murong Ye is here, they can still have something to eat. If they are beaten out, then...

Shaoyao still had water in her hand, so she couldn't waste any time, so she just scolded you a few words: "Next time, I will never spare you!"

After saying that, she turned and left.

The two young men breathed a long sigh of relief, no longer daring to talk nonsense, and quickly left to go about their own business.

Shaoyao walked towards the lighted room, but she was a little absent-minded, and her mind kept thinking about what the two people had just said.

A gust of cool breeze blew, and her hair stood on end! Turn back immediately!
"who!?"

There was no one behind.

However, Shaoyao became more and more frightened, and unconsciously sped up her pace, almost trotting by the end.

"Miss!"

She rushed into the room in a hurry, startling Ye Shixian.

What followed was anger.

"What are you doing in such a panic!"

A little of the water in the peony basin spilled out, and his hands were instantly burned red.

But she didn't dare to speak. She just bit her lip and admitted her mistake: "Miss, please atone, slave, slave... you were reckless."

Ye Shixian has been crying all day today, and her face is still stained with tears. Her eyes are red, but her eyes are fierce, and she looks a little fierce inexplicably.

"Useless things!"

She came to Shaoyao and ordered her to put down the water and soak the veil.

wow-

The white veil spreads softly in the water.

Ye Shixian felt a stabbing pain in her head, and suddenly turned back slowly and looked at Shaoyao.

"Shaoyao, how long have you been with me?"
