Chapter 1173 Zhu Di’s ruthlessness and the fire-filled warriors
Zhu Di took the initiative to fight decisively. Even if Wu Qi was caught off guard, he would naturally follow suit!
If he were really allowed to send all the food and grass up, make all preparations, and then move south, Zhu Di would not necessarily fight him again by then! But any normal famous general would not like to fight a siege!
And Zhu Di wanted to take the initiative to attack at this time, not because of the extent of his chances of winning, but because he had no choice but to do it.
If there is no flaw in the southern war situation, if no breaking point can be found, and the war in the Central Plains is delayed until the outcome is reached, it will only end in passive death.
Whether to wait for death slowly here, or to fight him, different people have different choices!
But for people like Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, they naturally choose to fight to the death and kill him to make things clear?
Which of these eternal emperors is willing to wait silently for death?
"The front army retreats to both sides and lets the soldiers come forward!" Wu Qi ordered in a deep voice from atop the Chinese army's chariot.
"Ding, Wu Qiyasheng's skill effect five is activated. When he is the leader and his own troops are weak, all his troops will have +1 strength; when he leads the soldiers in battle, all his troops will have an additional +1 strength.
All soldiers currently under his command have an extra +1 strength."
"Grand Governor, the soldiers are the best in the army, why bother fighting with these dead men!" Qin Qiong said anxiously.
Whether an army is being treated as a death squad or not, a general who has been on the battlefield for a long time can tell just by looking at it.
Of the 100 members of the death squad, it’s not certain whether two or three will survive in the end!
To put it bluntly, these people go to the battlefield just to die, and they perform combat missions that require death! Those who dare to join the death squads are the kind who don't want their lives.
No matter which army fights against this kind of army, the final result will not be good! The final result will probably be a heavy loss!
Therefore, Qin Qiong did not want the soldiers to fight with them head-on!
Although the combat effectiveness of an elite battalion can be several times that of ordinary soldiers, the money and food consumption is also several times that of ordinary soldiers!
Which of these elite battalions is not used as a breakthrough point at critical moments, or used to fight tough battles at critical moments, but when they are placed in this kind of war of attrition, Qin Qiong feels like her heart is bleeding!
"If we can defeat the enemy, what about a single soldier?" Wu Qi shook his head at this moment and said.
"If we win today and capture Zhu Di's hundreds of thousands of troops, how much resistance will be left in Jiaozhou?"
"The road to friendship between our troops will be smooth from now on!"
"After the handover, Jing Yang can be exposed to the front of our army. Compared with this, a soldier is really nothing!" Yang Su sighed in his heart.
As far as he knew, this soldier was trained by Wu Qi himself. Logically speaking, the person who was most reluctant to part with this soldier was not other people, but Wu Qi himself.
However, as a commander-in-chief, Wu Qi was absolutely calm when he needed to be calm, so calm that he was even a little cold-blooded.
In order to win, as long as you feel that the price is enough for the final benefit, you will not pay any price without blinking an eye.
And if this battle is won, the benefits will certainly be sufficient. If this battle can be won, the entire southern war situation will undergo earth-shaking changes.
Even if Zhu Yuanzhang's navy blocked the Jin army north of the Yangtze River, it would be in vain!
If the Central Plains and the South are in the hands of the Jin army, how different will it be from the whole world in the hands of the Jin army?
Judging from this harvest, let alone a soldier, even if one or two are added, what will happen? Compared with the outcome of the entire battle, any army seems to be insignificant in front of this.
