Wu Qi's anger was naturally not because Zhao Cheng said that he would take Wucheng next spring. In the past ten years, there were many powerful people in the southern wasteland who made inferior remarks, and among those powerful people, none of them supported troops.
Tens of thousands?!
Not only that, those powerful men also have virtuous ministers and generals, and many wise men to advise them.
And the last person who wanted to take Wucheng was none other than Huang Tianjun.
They marched into the Southern Wilderness with 50,000 troops. The commander who led the army was not a small role, but the famous God-Slaying General. This man was not a Taoist, but he was born with the power of nine bulls and two tigers, and was born with horizontal training.
He had strong bones and strong muscles, so he was recommended by the villagers and made a head general.
The so-called Dutou is the official responsible for local security and has a group of local warriors under his command.
At that time, no one had raised the flag of rebellion. For a white man to be an official, he was not bad at all. He was already a local official and knew how to make good use of it.
After all, except for years of great chaos or when the dynasty was first established, without family background, no matter how talented you are, it will be difficult to get appointed.
Take General Tushen. If this person comes from a powerful family and has such talent, it will not be difficult for him to become a general in his twenties.
But in the last years of the dynasty, this was no longer possible.
What happened next was a very common thing in this era. The local officials at that time were transferred, and someone took a fancy to the position of Xiang Yong, the general who killed the god, so they randomly found a few charges to frame him, and there will be more to come.
It was directly punishable by death.
Without a backer and no reincarnation, in this case, there is no possibility of overturning the verdict.
As for his subordinates, the ones who led the team to kidnap him were several of his subordinates.
If it were someone with poor martial arts skills, he would have been tied up, tortured in various ways in prison, and finally beheaded without being able to survive.
But the God-Slaying General was not an ordinary person. When facing the government, he did not have much awe in his heart. He killed several people who came to arrest him on the spot, and even used a pole to escape overnight, carrying his luggage on one side and his mother on the other.
's hometown.
Later, he went up the mountain and became a bandit.
Until Taoist Huang Tian carried out a major event and shouted that Cang Tian was dead and Huang Tian should stand up.
The God-Slaying General was also unambiguous, and immediately led a group of his subordinates to join him, and made many military exploits.
The moment when he became a god was in Yuzhou. In one day, he killed five divine generals under the command of Yuzhou Mu.
As for the divine generals under the command of Yuzhou Mu, the “god” refers to the ancient method of divine fighting. They were granted pardon by the court and mixed with divine fighting. They invited famous gods and men in history to combine them with military formations. It can be said that
There are few rivals in the world.
There were thirteen such divine generals under Yuzhou Mu's command, but five of them were killed in a row in one day.
At that time, when the news came out, the whole world couldn't help but feel horrified.
Because of this, the God-Slaying General finally became a god and gained the name of God-Slaying.
Even Wu Qi, a powerful man, couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he learned that the leader was the God-Slaying General.
From the outside looking in, he defeated 50,000 with 3,000. He was a direct crusher, which can be described as majestic. But in fact, he is probably the only one who knows how much pressure he has endured.
If the God-Slaying General hadn't grown old and passed his prime, and his abilities in all aspects were not as good as before, Wucheng would have been overturned long ago.
Even if fate hadn't been on his side and given him a bit of luck, first a continuous rainstorm and then a scorching sun would have made the 50,000-strong Huangtian army exhausted and occupying the time.
As a servant in Wucheng, he was very familiar with the geographical conditions here. He often trained troops in this area on weekdays. He had the right location and people, so he was ready for all three seasons.
But in this case, at the decisive moment, he was almost killed by the God-Slaying General, who led a group of defeated soldiers to fight back.
Even when he killed the God-Slaying General in the end, he used the lives of his subordinates to exhaust the opponent's physical strength, and then he was able to kill him.
In fact, in the first battle, if the opponent's general Sun Chu hadn't escaped too quickly and turned out to be a weakling, but instead followed the military order to flank the opponent, if he had succeeded, he might have died at that time.
However, he subsequently killed the world-famous God-Slaying General, and naturally all the other's fame was fulfilled by him.
Although Wu Qi was proud of this, he was not proud of it. He was familiar with history books and knew many examples of famous virtuous ministers and generals who were killed by soldiers or even women after their peak moment of becoming gods.
few.
The most mysterious thing in the world is luck and destiny. If you are lucky, you can make Shu Zi famous in one day. If you are not lucky, even a real dragon will swim like a fish and shrimp.
At that time, Huang Tianjun, in addition to the famous commander General Tu Shen, also had three counselors: Zhuge Yun, Li Taiqing, and Sun Qizhi. These three people were also powerful people. If they performed normally, there would be no chance for Wu Qi.
.
But the strange thing is that after entering the Southern Wilderness, these three people fell ill. They said they were not accustomed to the climate, but in fact it was a bit like their destiny was not there.
Huang Tianjun started his career with Taoism. It is not difficult to treat diseases with Taoism. However, the diseases of these three wise men got better and relapsed, and relapsed and got better again.
In short, all kinds of coincidences added up to finally create the myth of three thousand defeating fifty thousand.
But even so, a victory is a victory and cannot be faked.
In this case, Zhao Cheng said that he would defeat Wucheng with 5,000 remaining soldiers. If Wu Qi still thinks that the opponent really has a chance, then he is either a prophet or a fool.
Although Wu Qi is old, he has nothing to do with Huan Xie. His anger is not because of Zhao Cheng's arrogance.
According to the calculations of Wu Qi and the counselors under Wu Qi, Zhao Cheng said that taking Wucheng was partly due to his disobedience and wanted to use this excuse to develop his own power.
by.
The roads in the mountains are difficult to navigate and cannot support a large-scale march. The main force of Huang Tian's army is too busy to take care of itself, and it is impossible to send people to attack Zhao Cheng.
Regarding Zhao Cheng, Wu Qi did a lot of research and found out that before he entered Lianshan, he was just a district commander, commanding more than two hundred people. To civilians, he was already a big shot, but to them, he was just a big shot.
Grass mustard.
But now, it is sitting on a mountainous land, with a base of nearly 50,000 people, and there are also 5,000 soldiers and horses in hand. Compared with before, it can be said that the world is as big as the sky.
On the other hand, taking Wucheng also boosts morale to prevent the army from farming in the mountains. Over time, the morale of the army will be directly dispersed, and the army will directly become the people.
Once the military spirit is scattered, it will be difficult to gather it together. Therefore, it is necessary to set a goal that is difficult to achieve but seems to be successful, and use ghosts and gods to imply miracles to encourage people's hearts.
