Zhao Kuoyuan was even more incompetent than he thought. Not only did he have no military talent, he was also as timid as a mouse. He never cared about the tragic battlefield situation he heard from his father in the past, but he was really shocked when he saw the scene of the cruel massacre with his own eyes.

This is not a joke, nor is it a simple conversation. This is a battle of hundreds of thousands of people and the destruction of countless lives. War should not be like this. It should be as stated in the military books. How proud it is to plan and win a thousand miles!

If I can't continue like this, I won't win, this is not a place I should stay.

Zhao Kuo made up his mind and fled south overnight. This was a way to preserve the main force, because he probably couldn't beat Chai Yi, but the hateful thing about this person was that he only cared about running away by himself, but forgot to notify the soldiers who were still besieging Lingnan!

Those guys who attacked Lingnan were really pitiful. When they encountered such a broken weather, they were so devastated. Under the siege of the city and outside the city, the siege troops collapsed on their entire line!

At this point, the Wugou Battle and the Lingnan Defense Battle were completely defeated by Zhao Kuo's incompetence and ended with Chai Yi's complete victory. This battle is of great significance to many people.

In this battle, Zhao Kuo used practical actions to show that his reputation for incompetence was not false, but also proved himself. Chai Yi obtained a large number of new forces and initially established the initiative on the battlefield.

The news of the defeat soon reached Kyoto, and Liang Zian, the Minister of War, learned about Zhao Kuo's defeat at the first time.

"What? Do you say Zhao Kuo was defeated? There were only less than 200,000 troops left? He also lost Wugou?" Liang Zian was very panicked when he learned about this news. He almost turned a blind eye because Zhao Kuo was recommended to Chai Yan himself. If Zhao Kuo was in trouble, he would definitely be dragged into the water.

"Sir Shangshu! What should we do next?" his colleague asked.

So after careful consideration, Liang Zi'an said solemnly: "You must not let the emperor know about this matter! You will hide it first! Once the emperor knows, Zhao Kuo's command position will definitely not be guaranteed! Then we will also be done with you!" Liang Zi'an had already made up his mind to conceal the real situation first, and no matter what he said, he must protect Zhao Kuo's command position first!

"But what if the emperor asks? What should we say?" the official said timidly.

Liang Zi'an narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "You immediately send a letter to the Prime Minister! Let him jointly sign all the ministers in the court and all the people in the palace, and must block the news!"

"Okay! The official knows!"

Since he had already bet on Zhao Kuo, he could only walk along the way with Zhao Kuo, "In addition, you will tell Zhao Kuo in a letter! I will give him another chance! I will secretly transfer some troops to him! I hope he will not disappoint me next time!"

"Sir, obey the order!"

At this time, Zhao Kuo, after the defeat, finally woke up a little. He understood what was going on in the war. It was not about the wind, snow and moon, or about the night of lying on the war, but about the creepy sound when the sword pierced into his body, the bright red blood splashing everywhere, and the screams of the dying soldiers hoarsely.

Zhao Kuo doubted his abilities, "Can I really defeat Chai Yi in this cruel war? Why don't you just quit! Go home and be my eldest master!"

Zhao Kuo said to himself that he had been seeking a way out for himself. Even if he was defeated and then was dismissed after returning, he would be at most peaceful.

But just as Zhao Kuo was about to retreat, he received a letter from Kyoto Liang Zi'an. The meaning was very clear, which was to let him continue to be his commander and continue to command hundreds of thousands of people. No need to think about anything else, and strive to win a battle!

"What? This old fox doesn't let me go? He still wants to continue fighting with the King of Qi." Zhao Kuo was stunned. He thought that the news came to Kyoto and the emperor would remove him from his post, but he didn't expect that he would be stopped by the old guy Liang Zi'an and help him?

The arrow was on the string and had to be fired. There was no other way, so let's treat the dead horse as a living horse. There was no way, so Zhao Kuo had to bite the bullet and continue to be the commander. After Wu Gou lost it, he could only continue to retreat.

After leaving Wugou, Zhao Kuo retreated to Mutun in shame. When he got there, he began to rectify his troops and prepare for the next decisive battle here. He kept telling himself that the war was far from over, and that he had many soldiers and generals. He really had an advantage over him compared to Chai Yi. As long as he listened more to his generals, who would be able to kill him, but is his subordinate really capable of being able to do anything? The answer is no, he seems to have no one to use...

Zhao Kuo knew very well that although he could excuse himself by victory or defeat as a common matter for military strategists, if he failed again, it would not be common. He held hundreds of thousands of heavy troops but kept losing to Qi army with less than his. Not to mention that he could not explain it when he returned to Kyoto, even his subordinates would not look good.

After all, he is a famous general, so he still needs face. As long as he can defeat Chai Yi, he will definitely be able to restore his reputation and dignity!

But it is not easy to defeat Chai Yi. It is obvious that the military ability of this King Qi is far stronger than that of him. Although his soldiers under him are not as many as his, the quality is much higher than that of him. There are also those berserkers who kill without blinking. This is really a terrible opponent. If you want to defeat him, you must seek help!

Who should I find to help me? Can anyone in this world compete with Chai Yi? The answer is yes. Such people can definitely catch a lot of people. The important thing is to find the right person! However, Zhao Kuo did find someone who can defeat Chai Yi for him. In a sense, he did find the right person.

With their help, Zhao Kuo finally felt at ease. He began to plan his attack seriously. He wanted to fight back!

In fact, in Zhao Kuo's opinion, the main reason why he could not beat Chai Yi was that his ability was not as good as Chai Yi, and the strength of Zhou's army was not as good as that of Qi's army. It is undeniable that these are one of the reasons, but definitely not the main reason! Because the fundamental difference between him and Chai Yi lies in determination!

Determination, a will from the heart, can grit your teeth and survive no matter how difficult it is in front of you! And you must survive!

At this time, Chai Yi, who was victorious, celebrated his victory with a smile, but he was still uneasy inside. He knew very well that for him, every battle was a decisive battle, and from the moment he started to rise, he had already been charged with the crime of rebel. Except for those few confidants who were afraid that the world would not be in chaos, there were not many people in the world who supported him.
