Chapter 523: First Attack
His demeanor suggested he was enjoying the spectacle, silently conveying, "Actions speak louder than words!"
The four chiliarchs quickly intervened, advising Deputy General Lin, "Don’t act hastily. Considering your age, charging into the front line isn’t suitable for you."
Qin Silong playfully chimed in, "Exactly. If anything goes wrong, I won’t be able to take responsibility!"
He aimed to provoke Deputy General Lin, who responded by patting his chest assertively, "No worries. I’ll show you what it means to be strong despite my age!"
Despite his apparent resolve, Deputy General Lin had no intention of genuinely charging into battle. This was merely a theatrical performance.
He passionately declared, "There’s no need for both generals to fight. I’ll lead the way! If the first attack fails, Qin will lead in the second round!"
Deputy General Lin had already devised his plan. He intended to lead the charge alongside Captain Yang, with a hundred elite soldiers at the forefront. Meanwhile, hidden sharpshooters would be strategically placed on the mountain. At a signal from Deputy General Lin, the sharpshooters would eliminate him, making it appear as though he had been shot from the enemy camp. His demise would provide an opportunity to execute a tactical retreat.
Once Qin Silong initiated the attack, Deputy General Lin planned to replicate the same strategy and eliminate him in a similar manner. This way, he aimed to accomplish his mission with precision.
