Chapter 574 Sleepless Tonight
Li Ran patted Gong Yan on the back lightly:
"The matter has come to this, young master, don't be too pessimistic, because it is not known whether he is still alive or not, and it will not be too late to make a decision after more investigation..."
Gong Yan couldn't help crying back with a slightly crying voice:
"No... Uncle..."
Although Gong Yan agreed, the tears were still hard to hide.
Li Ran also knew that with the tense atmosphere in the past few days, coupled with the uncertainty of his own brother's life and death, everyone wanted to vent.
Therefore, he only patted Gong Yan on the back and stopped trying to persuade him.
And Gong Yan was sobbing for a long time before he stopped.
Li Ran sighed, got up quickly and went to the inner room, saw Li Guang with big eyes rolling around, couldn't help smiling and said:
"How? Is Guang'er afraid?"
Although Li Guang did not personally experience this war, she is on the battlefield after all, and it is impossible for her to be ignorant of the noise outside.
Li Guang held Gong Eryue's hand tightly, and shook her head resolutely.
"Don't be afraid! With Erniang and Mr. Ali here, Li Guang is not afraid of anything!"
Before Li Ran came to the collapse, he lightly brushed Gong Eryue's bangs:
"Yue, you've worked hard!"
Gong Eryue said:
"Compared to Mr. who spends all his time worrying about it, what are we talking about hiding here? It's just that the enemy is coming fiercely, which is really worrying..."
Li Ran nodded, and said comfortingly:
"Well, as long as you survive tonight, you're done!"
Gong Eryue has been with Li Ran for a while, so she knows Li Ran's ability to plan everything.
So after hearing what he said, Gong Eryue couldn't help asking:
"Could it be... is there going to be a fierce battle tonight?"
Li Ran couldn't help but nodded and said:
"That's inevitable. Gongshan will definitely put all his eggs in one basket and make a final counterattack!"
Gong Eryue sighed:
"Then... it's bound to be another sleepless night!"
At this time, Li Ran stroked Li Guang's hair again:
"Guang'er, you go to bed first, and Yue you go to rest for a while. Although the enemy is going to put all their eggs in one basket, I guess they must be after the third watch. It's still early, and you can sleep for a while."
Gong Eryue nodded, Li Ran stood up and walked out of the room together with Fan Li and Gong Yan.
But Chu Dang was lying at the door at this time, and Gong Yan was sad and restless, stepped on Chu Dang's calf, and almost fell, but it was Fan Li who had quick eyesight and quick hands, and supported Gong Yan.
Chu Dang got up with a grunt, and was relieved to find that it was Li Ran and the others, and scratched his head in embarrassment.
Li Ran brought Gong Yan to the corner, and said earnestly:
"Because he doesn't know his life or death yet, so please take care of him, don't worry about it..."
In this situation, Gong Yan had no choice but to wipe away his tears and respond:
"Thank you uncle for reminding, Yan'er understands!"
Li Ran patted Gong Yan on the shoulder again:
"Go... have a good rest, maybe there is still a fierce battle to be fought! Everyone may not be spared!"
Gong Yan stopped crying, and bowed his hands in salute:
"promise!"
Then Gong Yan turned around and left. Li Ran watched him drift away, and couldn't help but heaved a long sigh:
"Uncle Shao, why don't you go and close your eyes for a while? It's not a problem if you take a nap for a while. It's probably fine in the first half of the night now."
Fan Li heard the words, but he was a little worried and said:
"How did you see it, sir?"
After hearing this question, Li Ran analyzed it with him:
"Now the night is dark and unclear, and the rebels are on the verge of new defeats, and their morale is low. As the saying goes, you can do one, but two, and you can't do it again. This kind of tired army must also need time to rest. So, I guess that Gongshan is not cool, Danghui will choose to launch the offensive after the cock crows!"
Fan Li is also extremely quick-witted, so he knows everything:
"Well, sir, what you said is reasonable. Presumably that Gongshan Buxuan must have predicted that we will not sleep tonight, and after the friendship between Chou and Yin, we can launch an offensive when everyone's consciousness is the weakest and the dawn of the East is approaching. , at this moment, it is indeed the most beneficial for him!"
Hearing this, Li Ran also nodded and said:
"That's true, so Shao Bo can follow me here, close your eyes and rest for a while."
"We can also take this opportunity to relieve our fatigue. This last few days has really exhausted our energy."
While talking, Li Ran sat directly on the steps, leaning his back against the wall, and closed his eyes.
Seeing that Li Ran was so calm, Fan Li stopped talking and sat down by Li Ran's side...
I don't know how long it has passed, and Li Ran doesn't know whether he fell asleep or not. He always feels that his brain is always awake.
He opened his eyes, but he was still somewhat in a daze. Since there was no one crowing on the high platform, it was even more impossible to know how long the time had passed.
Li Ran stretched his waist, looked at Fan Li who was at the side, and woke up Fan Li first.Came to the door again, opened a gap, sneaked in and saw that Gong Eryue and Li Guang were still asleep, then walked away quietly again.
Chu Dang, who seemed to have rested almost, was standing outside without saying a word, for fear of disturbing Li Guang.
Li Ran made a gesture to appease Chu Dang, but didn't talk to him too much.
Afterwards Li Ran instructed Fan Li a few more words, and he went up to the top stage alone.
At this time, Kong Qiu was sitting quietly at the entrance of the passage. Hearing the movement, he opened his eyes quite vigilantly.Seeing that it was Li Ran, he slowed down for a while, then got up and bowed:
"I have seen my grace!"
Li Ran returned the salute, then raised his head to look at the starry sky, glanced at the direction of the stars outside, guessed that it was probably the time of the ugly, squinted his eyes and looked around, it was still pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Li Ran joked with Confucius:
"Hehe, did Master Kong sleep well this night?"
When Confucius heard the words, he also jokingly replied:
"Thanks to Mr. Ton, Qiu is safe and sound this night."
The two came to the fence and looked at the darkness outside together. The two couldn't help but fell into deep thought...
After a while, I only heard Li Ran say with emotion:
"Hey... If Changqing is here, maybe there is a way to save so much trouble!"
In fact, Li Ran also knows himself. When it comes to marching and fighting, although Li Ran is also a good player, to a certain extent, he is still not as good as Sun Wu.
Sun Wu was not only good at strategizing when he used soldiers, but what is even more commendable is that Sun Wu often came to the battlefield in person.
After all, on the battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly. As a commander, if you can visit the battlefield in person, it will be of great benefit to your confidence in the soldiers and adapt to the situation.
However, it was obvious that Li Ran was unable to take command in person.
So, it's no wonder that Li Ran suddenly missed Sun Wu again at this time.
I miss his most handy assistant back then.
