Episode 1 Let Him Do It

This is such a nice place.

I sighed in my heart while feeling the cool breeze blowing in the valley.

I'm on a valley right now.

Ah, it should be said that I and the 5,000 people under my command are all on this valley.

Although the scenery of this valley looks so beautiful, it is a pity that this beautiful valley will be polluted by a strong smell of blood later.

Because a battle will break out here later.

After drawing up the general strategy of "defeat one by one", I decided to deal with the most powerful central army led by Anton first.

There are a total of 15,000 people in the Central Route Army, and this Anton is not easy to deal with, if it is a head-on confrontation, I will not get any bargain here.

Therefore, it was decided to use a surprise attack to deal with the Central Route Army, adopting beheading tactics, and directly took off the head of the Central Route Army's commander, Anton.

As long as the head of the leader is removed, the poorly organized peasant rebel army will soon collapse and disperse.

Therefore, I chose this valley for my surprise attack.

This valley is the place where the Central Route Army must pass through, so I led my 5,000 troops to this valley early to make arrangements.

But now, the layout in the valley has been completed, and the 5,000 troops are all in place, waiting for the Anton army to come.

Anton may never have imagined that there is a raging murderous intent hidden in this beautiful valley.

At this moment, the white cloud that had been blocking the sun left its original position under the breeze.

The sun, which had lost its shade, hit me violently like a flood that had been suppressed for a long time.

Under the "turbulent" sunlight, I couldn't help but lower my eyelids, and let my eyelashes help me filter out the glare.

At the same time, like a conditioned reflex, I raised my left palm to block the piercing sunlight that made my eyes ache.

And after raising the left palm, I also saw a bracelet tied to my left wrist-a women's bracelet.

I am all too familiar with this bracelet.

It was the bracelet that Carol had been wearing.

I put my left hand down and looked down at the bracelet Carol had given me around my left wrist.

Looking at this bracelet, what happened the night after I took over the counter-insurgency mission—the scene of that scene flashed through my mind very quickly.

...

The night after taking over this counter-insurgency mission.

After I got home and had dinner with Alan and Deng Jiaer, Alan and Deng Jiaer went back to their room.

So, I went to the room of the two of them and told Alan and Deng Jiaer about his acceptance of the counter-insurgency mission.

Unsurprisingly, he had a big fight with his sister Alan.

"Brother! What are you thinking! Why did you take on such a dangerous task?!"

I still remember Alan's roar at that time very clearly.

"Brother! Do you know how to lead troops? You haven't even led 5 people, how could you lead 5,000 people! Let alone 5,000 people to command 30,000 people."

"I'm sorry, Alan." I apologized to my sister, "I really don't want to live an ordinary life, my intuition tells me that if I refuse this task, then I really want to live an ordinary life for the rest of my life. "

"Is there anything wrong with an ordinary life?"

"..."

I didn't answer my sister's question directly.

Yes, the ordinary life is indeed wonderful, I do not deny that.

But... I just don't want to live an ordinary life.

"Anyway, no matter what, I won't let you do such a dangerous thing, brother! No!" Alan said with a somewhat arrogant attitude.

"Alan, listen to me..." I persuaded Alan earnestly.

However, no matter what I said, Alan wouldn't listen, and just kept telling me not to do such a dangerous task.

And Deng Jiaer on the side was too frightened by the fierce quarrel between our brother and sister to say a word, shrank in the corner, and looked at the two of us with some timidity.

Deng Jiaer was also very confused and confused at the time. His companion suddenly told them that he had accepted a mission to quell the rebellion and commanded 5,000 people to deal with 30,000 people.

"I won't listen! I won't listen!" Alan covered his ears, "Anyway, brother, you will go to the Baiyang Palace tomorrow and refuse this mission! I don't want you to do such a dangerous thing!"

Looking at my sister who is arrogant and ignores my painstaking persuasion, my anger also suddenly came up.

"Alan—!" I yelled at my sister in a tone full of anger, "What am I going to do! Do I still need your consent?!"

My roar was very loud.

It was so big that after I yelled this sentence, I was taken aback myself.

And Deng Jiaer, who had been shrinking in the corner, was also startled.

Alan looked at me with disbelieving eyes.

After yelling this sentence, I regretted it, because the sentence I just said was too hurtful.

Just as I was thinking about what to say to make amends, I saw tears in my sister's eyes.

"I'm your sister—!" Alan shouted with a little cry, "Is it wrong that I don't want my brother to do such a dangerous thing?"

Looking at my younger sister who was about to cry, all the anger in my heart disappeared immediately.

Yes, my sister is just worried about me, why am I getting so angry...

I stretched out my hands and hugged Alan into my arms.

"...I'm sorry, I was wrong just now, my brother was losing his mind..."

I hugged Alan and apologized.

After a while, Alan raised her small fist, lightly hammered my chest, and said: "...forget it, bro, you didn't mean it, just hitting you is a lesson to you .”

Alan pushed me away gently, out of my arms.

"Since you want to do this task so much, brother, then I can't give in..." Alan raised his head and looked directly into my eyes and said, "In a while, Kai Luoer will also come back from get off work, and I will go to Ask Kailuoer, if Kailuoer agrees with you to do this task, then I agree. Otherwise, even if I break your legs, I will stop you from going."

After finishing speaking, Alan left the room without waiting for my answer.

And Deng Jiaer looked at me, then looked at the door of the room, and then left the room cautiously and lightly.

Now, I am the only one left in the room where Alan and Deng Jiaer live.

I stood up, gently closed the door of the room, and then sat back to my original position.

I lay back a little tired, on the soft bed of Alan and Deng Jiaer.

Fatigue suddenly flooded in like a tide.

Too many things happened today.

This morning, in the meeting hall of Baiyang Palace, I took over this counter-insurgency mission.

Then at night, I had a big fight with my sister, who was usually on good terms with me.

Thinking of what Alan said to me just now, I couldn't help but smile wryly.

"...Does Alan agree only if Kailor agrees..." I murmured.

At first glance, the condition that Alan mentioned just now seems to be quite fair.

But if you think about it carefully, it is completely a condition that is extremely beneficial to Alan!

Because both Alan and I know that Carol is the most satisfied with the current life, and also admires the ordinary life the most.

At the same time, Alan and I both know that Carol also cherishes the friends and companions around her the most. If a friend is in danger, she is definitely the first to rush to help.

Carol, who likes ordinary life and cherishes friends, how could he agree with me to do such a task that might cost my life......

"Oh..." I couldn't help but sigh.

Although I know that the condition proposed by Alan is extremely unfavorable to me, I don't have the strength and energy to argue with Alan anymore.

It's better to take a short rest first to recover some energy, and then we can argue with Kai Luoer and Alan later...

After making up my mind, I slowly closed my eyes.

... I don't know how long it has passed.

I was in the room when I suddenly heard the door open.

In a light sleep, I opened my eyes immediately.

Carol is back!

If Kailuoer comes back, then Alan should go to tell Kailuoer about me now.

Carol, who likes the ordinary life the most and cherishes friends the most, must have the same attitude as Alan.

Well, how can I persuade Carol and Alan now.

I must do this counter-insurgency mission! Even if I want to have a big fight with my sister and Kai Luoer, I won't hesitate!

I silently made up my mind.

at this time--

Knock, knock, knock.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the room, and along with the knock, came the voice of my sister.

"Brother, can I come in?"

I looked towards the door in amazement.

too fast! It has only been more than 3 minutes since Kailor came back. Did Carol give an answer so quickly?

That is to say, did Kailor give the answer immediately after listening to what Alan said about me...

"come in."

I yelled out the door.

After getting my consent, the door of the room opened.

Alan walked in with a blank face.

"I told Kailor about your acceptance of the counter-insurgency mission." Alan said.

"Then... what does Kellor say?" Even though I had no expectations for Kellor's position, I still asked.

Alan showed hesitation on his face, and finally seemed to accept his fate, sighed, and said:

"Kaylor said: 'Let him do it, he has his dream and I'll have his back.'"

"Eh……"

I looked at Alan in a daze.

Then, I felt two streams of heat suddenly rushing up, enveloping my two eyeballs.

I looked up, trying to let the tears flow back.

Just then, familiar footsteps came.

I looked up so I couldn't see who was walking towards me.

However, just by hearing the footsteps, I can recognize who is walking towards me.

It was Carol's footsteps.

I have been listening to the footsteps of Carol for 2 years. In this different world, her footsteps are the ones I am most familiar with besides Alan's footsteps.

I lowered my raised head and looked at Kai Luoer who walked in front of me.

Carol seems a little tired now, but it's no wonder that she worked all day today and finally came home just now. It's normal to be tired.

Looking at Kailuoer's smiling blue eyes, just when I was about to say something, Kailuoer suddenly raised his left hand, untied the bracelet tied on his left wrist, and tied it on my left wrist.

While wearing it, Carol said, "This is the bracelet my family gave me when I left home. They said it could be used as a talisman. I'm lending this to you temporarily. You must come back safely. "

Soon, Carol fastened the bracelet on my left wrist.

"Come back safely."

After Kellor emphasized it again, he turned and left without thinking.

I looked at the bracelet on my left wrist and felt my eyeballs being wrapped in heat again.

"Thank you, Kailuoer!" I shouted loudly to Kailuer's leaving back, "I will definitely, definitely come back safely!"

After hearing my words, Kailor paused for a moment, turned his head and looked at me with smiling eyes, and said:

"knew."

...

Looking down at the bracelet on my left wrist, I recalled what happened that night, and the scene quickly passed through my mind.

At this time, Alan's voice suddenly came from behind me:

"Brother, how is your horsemanship doing now?"

Asking that, Alan drove the horse to my side.

I lowered my left wrist with a wry smile on my face.

"So-so, I can finally sit on the horse, and I can barely control the horse to trot. Alas, I don't have such talent as you."

Then, Alan asked again:

"Brother, are you thinking about Carol?"

Carol...

I do miss her a little bit.

However, I don't want to just tell my sister so honestly.

So I said:

"Yeah, I really miss Carol—"

Then, he gave Alan a mocking smile:

"--the food you cook, the military rations are so unpalatable."

The corners of Alan's mouth suddenly turned up slightly.

"Brother," Alan said suddenly, "it's such a pity that I can tell you what happened the night before the expedition."

Later, she added: "Carol is really a lovely person."

"Huh? What's the matter?"

I looked at Alan suspiciously.

What happened the night before the expedition?

What's up?

Why did he suddenly say "Carol is really a lovely person" without thinking?

Just as I was about to continue asking questions, a messenger rushed over.

"General!" the orderly said to me, "the rebel outpost has arrived!"

My heart froze, and my face instantly became serious.

It seems that the battle is about to begin!

Carol, thank you for your bracelet, don't worry, I will come back safely, not only I will come back safely, Alan and Deng Jiaer will also come back safely with me! We're not just coming back safe, we're coming back victorious!

I said so secretly in my heart.
