If the Zhao Army in the Shangdang Campaign is likened to a hedgehog, then during the initial phase of combat when the Qin Army began to enter the Shangdang Region and engage with it, the hedgehog's quills were aligned. As winter approached, most of the main forces of the Zhao Army had completed their withdrawal and established defenses at the Dan Shui River Defense Line.
At this point, the Zhao Army was no longer the same as before; they had banded together and raised all their quills. The Crossing Battle demonstrated that these spikes were incredibly sharp.
The Qin Army found it difficult to consume the Zhao Army as they had in the past, suddenly feeling as if there was nowhere to strike. Any contact with any part of the hedgehog resulted in being pricked by its sharp quills. Additionally, the large river between the two armies provided a significant advantage for the Zhao Army.
Some might ask, didn't the Qin Army carry the most advanced Military Map of that time? Why did they allow the Zhao Army to successfully establish the Dan Shui River Defense Line? This question is indeed difficult to answer. The land belongs to all Common People; it is impossible for one person to occupy all advantageous terrain.
As a general, it is not easy to assess and grasp the situation on the battlefield. Considering all mountains and rivers on Earth seems somewhat pretentious. Natural conditions influence geographical advantages, creating too many constraints. If the span of operations is too great, it will conflict with unpredictable natural conditions. The so-called natural conditions generally refer to seasonal cycles, weather changes, and occasional battlefield opportunities.
Faced with the currently unsolvable Natural Barrier issue, the most lethal formations of the Qin Army were simultaneously constrained. If they wanted to cross the river and engage with the Zhao Army, they could only use Rafts for river crossing operations. However, due to limited crossing tools available, all charges ultimately devolved into a tactic akin to pouring oil on fire.
Since what was just discussed was confidential, only Wang He and Luzi were present in the Main Tent at this moment. Among those who understand each other, some things are known without being said. Now that the overall situation has been determined, they could discuss some off-topic matters as a conclusion.
Xiao Yu'er possessed unparalleled medical skills, treating both symptoms and root causes effectively. His simple and convenient medical methods could save many cumbersome medical examinations. It was merely a case of skin itching caused by dampness; there was no need for any mystery surrounding it. This reflects medical ethics and compassion. A white-clad angel without medical ethics is unworthy of wearing such attire!
Feeling that his skin was no longer as sensitive as before brought Wang He considerable relief. He picked up a bowl of clear water handed over by Luzi and drank slowly. "Since we have the old man's decree here, we cannot wait until it freezes over. Alas! Just as Lu Zigang said, I am also forced into this situation. Regardless of whether this hedgehog's quills are raised or not, we must charge forward."
Regarding the suggestion that their main army should wait until the Dan Shui River froze before launching an attack, Luzi had not spoken after reviewing the Imperial Command. Hearing now that Old General had initially planned similarly made him nod with a smile. "Alas! They say it's hard to go against Imperial Command, yet we must sacrifice thousands of Soldiers for this."
Wang He stood up and stretched; this feeling of ease seemed like something he hadn't experienced in a long time.
"If it weren't for Luzi arriving in time, I believe I would not see the day when Shangdang Region is liberated! Oh! By the way! This Brother you brought has exceptional medical skills; he is like a deity descended from heaven! If he is willing to let go of his other commitments, why not have him stay by my side?" After saying this, seeing Luzi bowing his head in silence made him think he wanted conditions in return. Everyone has an appreciation for talent, especially when it comes to experts among experts. Thus, he immediately promised: "Don't worry! As for his Official Position or anything else, I will do my utmost to secure it for him!"
The so-called struggle depends on who is speaking. As the Left Chancellor and the overall commander of this battle, Wang He is different; what seems like casual remarks can directly change a person's fate.
If Xiao Yu'er were a genuine man, Luzi's character would have led him to agree on the spot. Life is short, and even talented individuals find it difficult to seek recognition. This holds true even in Great Qin. However, the problem is that Xiao Yu'er is disguised, and if the truth were to be revealed, it would inevitably bring misfortune to Old General. Moreover, one wrong move from Lu Chu could put everyone at risk, which is a classic case of reckless adventurism.
Luzi squinted at the old man who only intended to claim credit, feeling helpless yet smiling as he reminded, "Everyone loves a treasure. However, she seems unable to accompany the army."
The Chinese language is vast and profound, so Wang He could certainly distinguish between "she" and "he." Seeing that his expected response was indeed not forthcoming, he confirmed his earlier conclusion in his heart. With a smile, he asked, "What if I directly make Little Fish the head Surgeon? Now you can rest assured, right?"
Luzi was clearly unmoved and shook his head firmly, indicating that this matter was non-negotiable.
Little Fish may be able to disguise herself, but she is still a girl! With this answer confirmed, Wang He couldn't help but burst into laughter, feeling an immense sense of relief. Some things can only be understood internally and should not be spoken aloud. Since Luzi had no intention of revealing the truth, there was no need for him to show off.
Among peers, one might be deceived by her facade. However, as an elder with rich experience, he would not be easily fooled. Luzi naturally knew whether Little Fish was male or female. The earlier mention of needing someone was purely due to Old General's childlike innocence.
The mistake of revealing Xiao Yu'er's identity was actually unintentional and thus excusable here. If it weren't for Luzi's carelessness, he would never have risked letting Xiao Yu'er treat Old General. From a distance, no one could discern any clues about Xiao Yu'er.
A gentleman does not take away another's love; this saying has its origins. Moreover, since Little Fish is a girl, even if she agreed, Wang He would not dare to pursue her. Being close to someone you cherish is happiness in itself. Following an old man with white hair all day long would surely lead to being scolded! There are some topics that Wang He could never bring himself to discuss openly. He firmly believes that as Luzi ages, his experiences will gradually enrich him. Furthermore, these matters cannot be taught because they can only be understood intuitively rather than conveyed in words. Thus, he chose not to dwell on it any longer and continued discussing the earlier business.
"Indeed, heaven favors Luzi; you can find all kinds of masters. If it weren't for... sigh! Forget it! Those past grievances are already behind us!"
Luzi's intelligence had not diminished due to his injuries; he naturally understood the implications behind Old General's unfinished words. Had it not been for his serious injuries at that time, he would never have found Xiao Yu'er. Perhaps this is what people call fate! Opportunities that everyone longs for yet can never attain are everywhere!
