Luan Hong was stunned for a moment, and then said: "There is no way around this. If you are not fully prepared, you will still be defeated, and you will be forced to give up when the time comes. Instead of doing this, it is better to conserve your strength first, and then defeat the enemy in one fell swoop when you are fully prepared. go back."

Lu Ange looked at the bustling crowd on the street irritably and said, "What about these people? What about these ordinary people? Do you care?"

Luan Hong said: "You can issue a notice first and let them evacuate quickly."

"It's hard to leave the homeland." Lu Ange said: "Their houses and property are all here. If they are suddenly left, where can they go? How will they make a living?"

"The country is so big, there is always a place for them to live." Luan Hong said: "If we don't withdraw now, and we are defeated by then, do you know what it will mean? Not only will we not be able to save this place, but you and your Bai Xunmei will also suffer. Danger."

As soon as Lu Ange entered Ai Xi's yard, he saw Ai Xi sitting in the yard worrying. He walked over and said, "Why are you sitting in the yard? Be careful of catching a cold."

Essie said: "Dad is in trouble, but he doesn't even tell me."

Lu Ange was silent for a moment and said, "Do you know what happened?"

"He didn't tell me, but it should be about the Northeast." Ai Xi said.

Lu Ange said: "Commander, he may go to the front line to fight against the enemy. What do you think?"

"Then go." Aisie leaned on the table and said, "He has an army, this is what he should do."

Lu Ange: "But it is very likely that we will lose."

"Then you won't go?" Ai Xi said: "As long as you fight, you may lose, so why don't you stop fighting just because you will lose?"

As a result, many words could not be said. Lu Ange thought for a long time and said, "Where is your father? What if something happens to him?"

Ai Xi thought for a while and said, "He will escape, he is the commander, and he is always the first to retreat if something happens."

Lu Ange always thought that Ai Xi was just a young lady who was inexperienced in the world, and he never expected that she would say such a thing. He still has a lot to say, such as what if no one joins the war and only your father does? What will you do after your father is defeated?

He couldn't say it out loud because he didn't support retreat in his heart. In his view, if he doesn't fight now, he doesn't know what will happen if he fights in the future.

Ai Xi looked into Lu Ange's eyes, "What are you thinking about?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Lu Ange smiled and said, "I bought sour plum cake. Do you want to eat it?"

Essie actually likes sour plum cake. She has a habit when writing articles. Once she writes about something to eat, she will automatically bring in her favorite food. They were eating here when Bai Yuan came. Lu Ange said nothing, and Ai Qian said: "Dad, come over and eat."

"Dad doesn't like sour food." Bai Yuan sat down next to the two of them and said, "Dad is here to ask you, when do you plan to get engaged? Or do you want to get married directly without getting engaged?"

Ai Qian and Lu Ange looked at each other and said, "Why are you so anxious? Aren't you busy at this time? We'll talk about it when you're not busy."

Bai Yuan grinned and said, "I'm afraid dad will be busy for a long time, and he may have to travel far away soon. I just want to get my good girl's marriage done before then."

Essie stopped smiling and said, "Dad, are you going to fight?"

Bai Yuan glanced at Lu Ange and said, "Who told you?"

"I guessed it myself." Aisie said: "I know there is a war in the north, and you have nothing to do except fighting."

"That's right, my good girl is so smart." Bai Yuan smiled and said: "Dad was fighting when you were not born, and he is still fighting after so many years. Don't worry, dad will come back after fighting just like before. "

"Yes." Aisie nodded and said, "Then you can prepare for my marriage when you come back."

Lu Ange didn't speak the whole time. When Bai Yuan left, he called Lu Ange away with him. Lu Ange knew that Bai Yuan had something to say to him, and Bai Yuan said: "There are some things I can't say to my good girl, but you are a man, and you should know them all. To be honest, I am not sure about this battle. You stay here to take care of my good girl." , you will be responsible for everything in the White House. If something happens to me in the front, remember to take your good girl with you, you know? "

These are all things that could happen. Lu Ange couldn't say anything like you would be fine. He nodded and said calmly: "I know, don't worry."

Bai Yuan turned around and walked away, the sun shining on his straight military uniform.

No matter what enmity Lu Ange had with Bai Yuan in the past, Lu Ange admired Bai Yuan at this moment. In this moment of national embarrassment, not everyone will come forward like this. He knows many people, including Luan Hong, who has always said that he is fighting for this country, but they do not have such courage. Here's this man, and he's a father.

Bai Yuan is invincible in the south, and now is the time when his prestige is at its highest. Although this operation was a collaboration between him and the Revolutionary Party, the highest commander in the entire army is now Commander-in-Chief Bai Yuan. The war in the north was becoming increasingly grim. Bai Yuan knew that it would be difficult to block the attack once it came, so he wanted to lead his troops to the north.

People are coming and going in Bai Mansion these days, and the expressions on everyone's faces are serious. When the novel was written to this point, the hero and heroine were on the way to retreat, so Essie didn't know what would happen next.

That day, Essie was preparing to go out with her jewelry box, and met Aunt Twelve again on the road. The twelfth aunt has regained her radiance, and I heard that she has been favored again recently. As soon as she saw Aisie, she leaned over and said affectionately: "Miss, sir, he is going to fight on the front line."

Ai Xi said: "Yeah." Xin said what did she mean by this? Ready to run away?

I heard the twelfth aunt say: "Look, I am alone on the front line, surrounded by stinky men, and there are no women to take care of him in his daily life. Just thinking about it makes me feel so distressed. Miss, go and beg for me." Please, sir, let me follow you."

Elsie's eyes widened, she was stunned. This was the first time since she came here that she was so surprised. Could it be that she had seen the wrong person? Is this the twelfth aunt who really loves dad?

Ai Xi was afraid that she would not know and said: "You have to think about it, the front line is very dangerous."

"I know, but I'm not afraid." Aunt Twelve's face was full of fear, "As long as I can stay with the master, I will be satisfied."

... For such an affectionate person, Essie decided to help her. As soon as she walked to Bai Yuan's yard, she saw a woman kneeling at the door of Bai Yuan's yard.

Ai Xi squinted her eyes for a long time and said, "Who is this?"

"This is the Thirteenth Auntie." Xiaoxing whispered: "The Thirteenth Auntie insisted on following the master to the front line. After the Twelfth Auntie heard about it, she refused to show weakness, so she also wanted to go. She didn't want to let the disgraced Thirteenth My aunt regains her favor again."

"...I see." It seemed that I was still too young to be so easily moved by Aunt Twelve.

Ai Qian said: "The Thirteenth Aunt has just entered the mansion not long ago, why did she fall out of favor?"

Xiaoxing said: "I don't know about that. Some people say that Aunt Thirteen did something wrong, while others say that Aunt Thirteen was too bad in bed."

"...Oh." Ai Xi thought about it but still couldn't go through with it. This was her father's own business and it was not his daughter's business to interfere.

She went to a jewelry store outside to exchange all the jewelry for gold, and then went to the bank. There are many people in the bank, but not many staff. Ai Xi asked while doing business, "Why are there fewer and fewer windows recently?"

The salesman whispered: "Miss Bai, do you know about the war in the north? The situation is very bad. Our president is starting to prepare to go south. The bank will close in a few days."

"Oh." Ai Qian thought to herself that her jewelry selling progress would be accelerated.

As soon as she left the bank, she saw Luan Hong and Lu Ange walking into a Western restaurant together. Ai Xi thought for a while and said to Xiao Xing: "You stay here, I'll go over there."

She first observed where the two were sitting outside, then quietly went in and found a seat next to them. There was a sofa blocking them from seeing Elsie. Ai Qian ordered a cup of coffee and heard Lu Ange say: "How can you do this?"

Luan Hong's voice was filled with helplessness, "This is not something I can control. The decisions are made by senior officials. All I can do is inform you in advance so that you can be prepared."

Lu Ange said: "I must tell Bai Yuan about this."

"You can't tell him!" Luan Hong suddenly became excited. After being quiet for a while, she seemed to realize that she was too excited. She said, "Didn't you already decide to join us? Then you must follow our arrangements. Bai Yuan has his own way. There will be no good results. Besides, what if he knew? If he knew, wouldn't he go to the front line? It would only add obstacles to our actions. "

Lu Ange said: "For the sake of Xunmei, I can't pretend not to know."

"An Ge!" Luan Hong said: "Have you forgotten how your parents died? You won't kill Bai Xunmei for him, but you can't stop him from committing suicide. How can you let your uncle and aunt die under the spring? Close your eyes?"

Ai Qian took a sip of coffee and realized that they had a conspiracy against Bai Yuan. She thought about it and quietly left here while the two were still talking. Xiaoxing waited for Ai Xi to come and said, "Miss, who were my uncle and those just now?"

"No one." Aisie said, "Let's go back."

As soon as she returned, Ai Xi went to find Bai Yuan, but was told that Bai Yuan was not in Bai Mansion and had gone to the military camp. Aiqi thought about it and decided that it would be better to let Bai Yuan know about it as soon as possible. She wrote a note and asked a soldier in the house to give it to Bai Yuan.

Xiaoxing was made nervous by Ai Xi, "Miss, why are you so anxious?"

Ai Qian is not sure, but it would be good to let Bai Yuan make preparations first.

The soldier was walking on the road holding the note. When he turned a corner, he was accidentally hit by a servant carrying tea. The note was also wet. When he exerted force on his hand, the paper was torn into pieces, and the words on it could not be read clearly. He originally wanted to go back to the lady and write another one, but then he thought that he could not enter the backyard casually. If the commander found out about this, he might be punished.

After thinking about it, he felt that the young lady and the commander were father and daughter. They would naturally talk about anything when they met, so he would not be in trouble. The young lady didn't know who he was anyway.

Essie went to bed very late that night, and when she woke up, it was already three in the morning. She heard some noise outside and asked Xiaoxing, "What's going on outside?"

"Miss, the commander has left for the front line." Xiaoxing came over and said, "The commander came over to see the lady this morning. He saw that the lady was asleep, sat there for a while and then left."

Ai Xi panicked and felt a tightness in her chest.
