Chapter 1120: No Need to be So Polite

"General, you are too polite; we were all injured to protect the General."

Among them, the older general smiled and said, his cheeks still having two dimples.

"Two brothers, no need to be so polite; this time it was I who implicated you two brothers," Gu Yi said gratefully.

"General, you are too polite; it is good that you can return safely."

"Yes! We were also lucky to meet a righteous general like you, otherwise we would have been buried in the belly of tigers and wolves."

"We were also unlucky, just happening to catch up with the General on an expedition, otherwise we would not have encountered Yuan Huan's pursuit," the other young soldier replied.

"Two brothers are joking; I was just lucky," Gu Yi smiled faintly.

Just at this moment, a noisy quarrel suddenly came from outside the camp, and someone was shouting: "Where is the General?!"

Gu Yi's soldiers immediately became vigilant, raising their weapons one after another, preparing to deal with the enemy.

"Hurry and leave!" Gu Yi's soldiers helped Gu Yi up and retreated rapidly toward the back.

Just as Gu Yi's soldiers were preparing to transfer positions, they saw Yuan Huan's soldiers rushing in from outside the door, and in front of them was Yuan Huan's personal guard team.

Gu Yi's soldiers' faces changed immediately; they protected Gu Yi behind them, staring nervously at Yuan Huan's army in front.

"General, this... what should we do?" the deputy general asked cautiously.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Gu Yi's soldiers drew their swords one after another, glaring at Yuan Huan's army in front of them, flames of anger burning in the bottom of their eyes.

Seeing this, Yuan Huan's army laughed loudly.

"General!" The deputy general looked nervously at Gu Yi and said: "Your injuries have not yet healed, you must not act recklessly!"

"General, you rest first, we will deal with them!"

"Yes! Your injuries have not yet healed, how can you clash with them? You just rest assured, we will definitely avenge you!"

The deputy generals advised one after another, and then were about to attack Yuan Huan's soldiers.

"Wait!" Gu Yi stopped them.

"General?"

"Don't act recklessly, I don't need your protection!" Gu Yi said coldly.

"General, your injuries have not yet recovered, how can you clash head-on with the enemy?" The deputy general said disapprovingly.

"Deputy General, I am fine!" Gu Yi shook his head and said.

"But..."

"Alright! Let's go!"

After speaking, Gu Yi led his subordinates to retreat toward the back.

Yuan Huan's army pursued relentlessly; they followed closely behind Gu Yi, swearing to kill Gu Yi.

Seeing this, Gu Yi's subordinates immediately waved their weapons, blocked in front of Gu Yi, and engaged in intense slaughter with Yuan Huan's soldiers.

"You bunch of bastards, daring to block this General's path, you are really tired of living!" Yuan Huan's soldiers roared, waving their long blades and charging toward Gu Yi's subordinates.

"General, we cannot abandon you!" the deputy general shouted loudly.

"Yes, we absolutely cannot abandon the General!"

Gu Yi's soldiers shouted loudly in unison; they were unwilling to abandon anyone, and even if they died, they would not abandon their commander-in-chief.

Seeing this, Yuan Huan's soldiers became even more annoyed, waving their weapons and slaughtering intensely with Gu Yi's soldiers.

"General, let's retreat first!" After the deputy general finished speaking, he took the lead in retreating.

Gu Yi's soldiers did not hesitate either, following behind the deputy general and retreating toward the back.

Seeing this, Yuan Huan's soldiers immediately pursued, preparing to intercept Gu Yi's soldiers again.

"General, you go first, this subordinate will cover the rear!" the oldest general said in a deep voice, and as he spoke, he raised the steel spear in his hand and charged toward the back with big strides.

Gu Yi's soldiers did not want to abandon the elderly general, so they could only continue to retreat toward the back, wanting to delay time as much as possible and strive to wait for the arrival of reinforcements.

"No!" Gu Yi shook his head and said, "If we retreat now, Yuan Huan's army will definitely take the opportunity to kill into the camp; in that case, wouldn't you all be in great danger?"

"General, you hurry and leave, this subordinate will delay time for you even if I have to risk this life!"

"Yes! General, you hurry and leave!"

Gu Yi's soldiers all advised.

Gu Yi knew their loyalty; he nodded and shouted loudly: "You all retreat with me!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers nodded one after another, and then followed Gu Yi to retreat toward the back.

Yuan Huan's soldiers pursued relentlessly; their goal was very clear, and that was to capture him alive.

"Kill!"

Just at this moment, battle cries suddenly came from outside the camp, and someone charged in.

Gu Yi's soldiers stopped their steps one after another, casting their gaze toward the person who came.

When they saw the appearance of the person who came clearly, they could not help but exclaim: "It's him!"

"It's him!"

Gu Yi recognized that person; he was the one who had almost caused his death on the battlefield back then.

"It's him!" Gu Yi's soldiers said one after another.

"Who is it, daring to trespass into the General's camp!" the deputy general shouted sternly.

Hearing this, Yuan Huan's soldiers moved toward Gu Yi, preparing to surround him and tear him to pieces.

"All of you stop!" Yuan Huan snorted coldly, and then shouted loudly: "The General is here, why don't you get out!"

Hearing Yuan Huan's shout, Yuan Huan's soldiers immediately stopped their steps; their gazes turned toward Gu Yi one after another, filled with awe.

Seeing this, Gu Yi's soldiers were also stunned; they could not help but guess, who exactly was this person?
