The first time in history

Outside the tent, a sudden strong wind blew, as if foreshadowing the coming storm; inside the tent, the flickering candlelight illuminated the resolute and unyielding faces of the people.

"Generals," Qian Mingduo's voice was steady and powerful, penetrating every inch of space in the tent, "The Jin soldiers have been active recently. According to spies, they have quietly sent reinforcements to our border. The number of cavalry has exceeded 50,000, and the number of infantry has reached an astonishing 100,000. This kind of battle is by no means a small fight. We must be prepared and discuss countermeasures together."

As soon as the words fell, the tent fell into a brief silence. Complex emotions flashed in the eyes of each general - shock at the number of enemies, as well as anticipation and determination for the upcoming battle.

Lieutenant General Li Yi, a general known for his bravery, was the first to break the silence: "General, although the Jin army is large in number, ours is no ordinary force. I am willing to lead the elite cavalry to meet them head-on and crush their morale with a thunderous force!" His voice was sonorous and powerful, as if he was ready to go into battle immediately.

Qian Mingduo nodded slightly, and turned his gaze to another deputy general, the wise and far-sighted Zhao Wenyuan: "Wenyuan, what do you think?"

Zhao Wenyuan stroked the short beard on his chin, pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly: "A head-on confrontation is important, but we cannot ignore the strategy. The Jin army is coming with such force this time that they must have a back-up plan. I suggest that on the one hand, we strengthen border patrols, and on the other hand, we can send a small force to attack the enemy camp at night to disturb their minds and make them lose their composure."

"Good idea!" Qian Mingduo nodded approvingly, his eyes revealing approval. He knew very well that facing such a large enemy force, bravery alone was far from enough, and wisdom was also crucial.

Then, the other deputy generals also offered suggestions, some suggested strengthening the city defense, and some suggested contacting the surrounding friendly forces to form a coalition to fight against the foreign enemy. The entire tent was filled with discussions, full of a tense and exciting atmosphere.

"Very good, all the generals have their own strategies." Qian Mingduo stood up and looked around, with a determined light in his eyes. "Tomorrow morning, we will quickly march to the border. Remember, we are not only the soldiers who protect this land, but also the hope in the hearts of countless people. No matter how powerful the Jin army is, as long as we unite as one, there will be no difficulties that we cannot overcome!"

Qian Mingduo paused, "General Li Yi."

"The end will be here."

"The area north of Dasan Pass is of utmost importance. You will lead 5,000 troops there quickly tomorrow, join General Wei, and closely monitor the movements of the Jin soldiers."

"I will obey my orders."

"General Wenyuan. You will lead the remaining 7,000 men to the northeast of Dasan Pass tomorrow to meet up with General Chen Yu. Remember, don't fight blindly, just defend strictly." Qian Mingduo turned to Zhao Wenyuan and said.

"Yes, sir!" Zhao Wenyuan bowed and accepted the order.

As Qian Mingduo finished speaking, there was an enthusiastic response in the tent. Every general seemed to be inspired by an invisible force, and their fighting spirit was completely ignited. The night was getting darker, but the lights in the central army tent were still bright, reflecting a group of heroes who were willing to risk their lives for the peace of their country. And this upcoming war is destined to become the most unforgettable page in their lives.

"The water is cold." Ling'er said unhappily when she saw everyone leaving the tent, "I'll go boil some more hot water."
