Chapter 769: Raising tigers is a problem, nothing more

Guo Xiancheng stared at the map. Tuobayan had just told him the glorious deeds of how he escaped from Zhengyang County. Unlike Cao Hui, Guo Xiancheng, who worked step by step from the grassroots officer to the general guarding the side, seemed even more shocked. He knew how difficult this matter was. In this series of dazzling actions, as long as Tuobayan had an unconscious decision, what awaited him was the fate of destruction.

"Excellent, eye-opening!" he murmured.

"General Guo praised it. Tuobayan was just lucky. In addition, there were not many cavalry in the Ming army, and they did not take me seriously." Tuobayan said modestly. Guo Xiancheng was an experienced general. In front of him, Tuobayan did not dare to show off. If you say too much, the greater the possibility of revealing your legs, it would be better to say less, and to push success to objective factors.

"It's already precious. Luck is sometimes an indispensable thing for a general." Guo Xiancheng shook his head.

Cao Hui on the side smiled: "General Guo, do you actually believe in luck?"

Guo Xiancheng nodded solemnly: "Of course I believe it. Luck is invisible and intangible, but it can really affect your life. Even if the two armies are in a clear distinction between strength and weakness, the number of winners and losses will sometimes be affected by some inexplicable factors. This is luck."

"General Guo, you have been brave in your life. How many times have your luck visited you?" Cao Hui didn't believe this very much. He believed that man will conquer nature. As long as you plan something well, you can hold victory firmly in your own hands.

"Many times." Guo Xiancheng nodded seriously: "Mr. Cao, generals without luck are either dead on the battlefield or are depressed and unsuccessful all their lives. For example, I can reach this generation, luck is also a very important ingredient."

Cao Hui laughed loudly, not saying anything.

Guo Xiancheng grabbed Tuobayan's hand, "So, I'm going to make a decision for this person who is capable and lucky. Lord Cao, if you want to fight with me, I will turn against you."

Tuobayan looked at Cao Hui a little unexpectedly.

Cao Hui spread his hands helplessly, "Tuobayan, you don't know our General Guo. If you don't give it to him, he will really turn against you. You have worked in intelligence for a long time and are quite familiar with our business. I originally wanted to introduce you to ghosts, but since General Guo has fallen in love with you, I can only give up my love."

"It is easy to get a thousand troops, but it is hard to find a general. Where are you? There are so many people who engage in conspiracies and tricks, and there is no shortage of this one." Guo Xiancheng held Tuobayan's hand tightly: "Tuobayan, you are just a new arrival, and I can't give you a higher position. You have a cavalry of 3,000 people. You have 800 people. You can recruit the remaining people yourself. I will organize you and give you military pay. All officers are appointed by you. How about it?"

Tuobayan seemed helpless. Looking at Guo Xiancheng's eyes, he could only nod: "Thank you for your trust, General, I will definitely train the general to create a cavalry that is not inferior to Long Xiang's army."

Guo Xiancheng laughed loudly and turned to look at Cao Hui: "Listen, listen, a cavalry that is not inferior to Longxiang. If you really want to be able to train a cavalry that is better than Longxiang's army, I will upgrade you to a third level."

For Guo Xiancheng, this war must be a failed war. Although he did not suffer any losses on the battlefield, for generals of his level, if they did not achieve the strategic goal before the war, it would be a failure. If they really gain something, that is, he had a new understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Ming army. He used to be a few contempts, but now he has raised his opponent to a more difficult point than the Chu army. The second gain was to pick up a very amazing general and not judge heroes by success or failure. Although Tuobayan destroyed the country and the family were destroyed, his ability on the battlefield made Guo Xiancheng, who had been through the battlefield, illuminated his eyes. He thought to himself that even if he fell to the level of Tuobayan, what he could do would not be better than the opponent. If luck was not favored, failure would be inevitable.

This made his originally lost mood slightly better.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Xiang Lian was covered in dust and walked in with a serious expression. His face was extremely haggard. "Mr. Cao, General Guo, I'm back."

Seeing Xiang Lian suddenly appear, Guo Xiancheng and Cao Hui stood up at the same time and asked in unison: "What's the battle in Zhongping County?"

Xiang Lian has been acting as the link between Qi and Qin. When the two saw Xiang Lian's expression, they both felt that something was wrong, but they still held hope for the situation.

Xiang Lian sighed, glanced at Tuobayan on one side, Tuobayan stood up immediately, clasped his fists and bowed to everyone: "I will leave."

Guo Xiancheng nodded, "Go, I have already known General Gao of the logistics company. I will set you up a camp and allocate the corresponding supplies. Let's settle down first."

"Thank you General Guo, thank you Lord Cao." Tuobayan thanked repeatedly, turned around and walked out of the tent.

There were only three people left in the tent. Xiang Lian dragged a chair and sat down. While rubbing his thighs that were sore because of the long-distance riding of horses, he looked at the two of them and shook his head with a wry smile.

"It's all over. The Ming army defeated the Qin army in Zhongping County. Deng Pu was killed by Qin Feng, and Deng Su also died on the battlefield. The Deng family's 20,000 cavalry were destroyed. Lu Dayuan's 10,000 elite troops were surrounded and finally surrendered. Lu Dayuan led the last Qin army back to Kaiping County. Now the Deng family's border army is in chaos, and the morale is basically not equal, and a great defeat is inevitable."

After Xiang Lian said this, the tent suddenly fell into a dead silence.

Both Guo Xiancheng and Cao Hui had imagined that the Qin army would fail, but they never expected that the failure was so thorough that even the chief general would be killed.

"Deng Pu is the master, how did Qin Feng kill him?" Cao Hui murmured.

Xiang Lian sighed: "The specific situation is not very clear. Judging from the information gathered from all aspects, Deng Pu wanted to kill Qin Feng on the chaotic battlefield so that the Ming army could collapse as quickly as possible. However, he failed to kill Qin Feng, but he was killed by Qin Feng instead. The two of them fought one-on-one on the battlefield, and Deng Pu lost completely."

Guo Xiancheng and Cao Hui looked at each other.

"Talk against one person?" The two armies faced each other, among the thousands of troops, they could not imagine how they fought one person.

"The specific situation is not clear, but I heard from the Qin army who fled back that it was indeed a one-on-one fight. At that time, the Qin army and the Ming army were fighting each other, but the two of them fought one-on-one on the other side."

"Kill over the level!" Guo Xiancheng widened his eyes, "A level nine killed a master, Lord Cao, do you know that such a thing happened before?"

"Yes!" Cao Hui's hands trembled slightly. "Thousands of years ago, Emperor Li Qing had surpassed the level and killed him."

Guo Xiancheng blinked and suddenly shivered.

Cao Hui swallowed, "How did Deng Su die?"

"I was shot to death by Chen Zhihua. Molo's cloud-piercing bow fell into the hands of the man." Xiang Lian said: "General Guo, Lord Cao, Deng's family is finished. Although the Ming army has not many troops in Zhongping, it is now full of morale. On the contrary, the Qin army can almost collapse on the whole. Under the leadership of Jiangshangyan, the Ming army Baoqing camp stationed in Longyou County, attacked Kaiping County at the first time. Facing the Qin army several times more powerful than him, the Qin army had almost no intention of fighting again. Wherever the Ming army's flag went, they fled. When I left, the Ming army's flood camp, Jumu camp, a cavalry camp, and even Qin Feng's personal guards, Liehuo Death Camp, had all entered Kaiping County."

"What is Xiao Qiang doing? Didn't he send troops to provide assistance?" Guo Xiancheng asked.

Xiang Lian shook his head: "Xiao Qiang will not send troops to Hulaoguan. If Deng Pu wins, he will come out to add icing on the cake. But now Deng Pu loses a lot. This person probably wants to set up his own business and become a new Deng family, but he will not think about how to save Deng family."

Guo Xiancheng sighed: "How can Qin be invincible? When Li Zhi was there, all the contradictions were suppressed by him. Now that he is gone, these long-standing conflicts have completely erupted and are out of control. The effect of the Ming and Chu countries joining forces to kill Li Zhi is emerging bit by bit. Qin Feng will fall into internal chaos for a long time. Qin Feng is a man who is far-sighted and thinks three steps, first swallowing Yue, and then planning Qin. The deep cunning makes people feel scared."

Cao Hui was also speechless. When thinking about the past, it really seemed like a dream. Qin Feng, the little captain who was chased by him in the Luoying Mountains for thousands of miles and went to death several times, is now able to kill the master, establish a huge country and become the emperor. Even if you think about it, you will find this kind of thing absurd, but it really happens in front of you.

"Xiang Lian, let me tell you in detail. I really want to know how Qin Feng defeated the Qin army!" Compared to other things, Guo Xiancheng, as a commander general, was more concerned about how Qin Feng defeated Deng Pu.

He knew very well that Deng Pu's Qin border army was so powerful. Especially the 20,000 cavalry were the core force of the Deng family, even the Long Xiang army did not dare to take it lightly when they faced them.

Xiang Lian nodded. After making up his mind, he began to tell Guo Xiancheng about the decisive battle in Kaiping County that determined the direction of the entire war.

Half an hour passed, and the tent fell silent again. Xiang Lian did not come back empty-handed. At this moment, Guo Xiancheng was placed in front of Cao Hui with a complete set of Ming army heavy infantry armor and weapons and a full set of equipment from a light cavalry.

"Raising a tiger is a disaster, just like this!" Cao Hui suddenly sighed. "General Guo, prepare to withdraw his troops and retreat to Fengxian. I want to rush back to Chang'an and report to His Majesty."
