Xiao Yuan sneered in his heart.
The arrogant soldier's strategy has obvious effects.
As the saying goes, the higher the praise, the worse the fall.
The current Huangfu Yuqi is like this. Not only is he even more arrogant, he has also looked down on the Qin army for a long time after winning consecutive battles.
Seeing that the King of Qin refused to fight, he laughed again, shook his head and said: "The dignified Lord Qin has also become a turtle with his head shrinking, a rat, a rat..."
"Okay, let's go back to camp!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand again.
Wu Jun's warships began to turn around in unison.
Seeing this scene, Peng Shuang couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, this kid Huangfu Yuqi is too arrogant. He should have ordered the Clippers to go around and kill him in one fell swoop."
"Huh? A little impatience will mess up the big plan. Killing Huangfu Yuqi will only make Pei Zong more difficult to deal with. Keeping him is the key to victory." Xiao Yuanle said.
Huangfu Yuqi thought he was invincible, but he didn't know that all the victories he won were deliberately given to him by the Qin army.
He didn't know, and the generals of the Wu army were even less likely to know. At first, people only thought that Huangfu Yuqi was lucky, but he won four consecutive victories. At this time, the generals of the Wu army also looked at him with admiration.
When they returned to the camp, many generals expressed some flattery in their words.
Someone said: "General Huangfu went to battle several times, which not only severely defeated the Qin army, but also greatly boosted the morale of our army..."
"Yes, with the general here, the Yangtze River will be worry-free..."
"That's right." Huangfu Yuqi was not modest at all. He raised his head slightly and said, "This time I wanted to lure the King of Qin to fight, surround him and annihilate him, but he couldn't retreat. What a pity."
As he spoke, he looked around again: "Hey, where is General Pei?"
"Ah, the old general went down to inspect the camp." A general returned.
Huangfu Yuqi nodded and changed the subject: "I have long said that retreating blindly is not the way to fight. It is a pity that the old general did not listen to me. If we had fought the Qin army early and defeated it in one fell swoop, we would have taken advantage of the situation. Take back Gangneung!"
These words were so arrogant that the leading generals looked at each other, and then they all laughed out loud, with nothing to say.
It's late afternoon.
In Huangfu Yuqi's own military tent, a whole roast chicken and a jar of fine wine were served on several tables. He was born into a wealthy family, and even if it was difficult in the army, every meal here must be big fish and meat. of.
At this moment, his subordinate general walked in, looked at the roast chicken and wine, swallowed his saliva first, and then clasped his fists and bent down: "General."
"Ah, you're here, sit down." Huangfu Yuqi stretched out his hand and shouted again: "Guard! Get some more food and wine!"
"No!" the sergeant took the order and left.
The general also happily sat down next to his subordinates and said: "General, although our troops have many military exploits now, the commander of the navy is still Pei Zong after all. If this continues, even if the king of Qin is defeated, that will be the greatest achievement. , it won’t fall on us, I’m afraid Pei Zong will take advantage of us.”
Hearing this, Huangfu Yuqi couldn't help but frown, and asked in a solemn voice: "What do you mean..."
"The general believes that Pei Zong is inferior to the general in terms of his ability to command troops and military planning. The position of commander-in-chief of the Wu army must be that of a general." The general said: "And this battle will definitely be recorded in the annals of history. If If a general can take the position of commander, he will surely become famous all over the world. When it is time to fight for it, you should fight for it."
"Well... that makes sense..." Huangfu Yuqi narrowed his eyes and nodded slowly.
Now, he has long looked down on Pei Zong. Even if he didn't say these words, he would take action.
Later, in his letter to the King of Wu, he once again explained in a vague way that Pei Zong was old and had no desire to fight. He only knew how to stay put. Not only did he suffer many attacks from the Qin army, but he also turned a blind eye to many fighter planes, which led to the war. unfavorable.
The King of Wu himself admired Huangfu Yuqi more. In addition, during this period of time, he had won consecutive battles, but Pei Zong had no achievements. Comparing the two, it can be imagined.
Moreover, there have been many remarks recently that only Huangfu Yuqi can defeat the Qin army.
On this day, the State of Wu went to the meeting hall.
In the court, there were frequent debates about the appointment of commander, and it was the same today.
A group of veterans, headed by Prime Minister Wu, still insisted on their own opinions, believing that veterans had rich experience and had their own reasons for being stubborn.
But another minister came out and said: "Old General Pei is over fifty. He cares a lot about his reputation and only wants to be invincible. But how can this solve the crisis in Jiangnan?"
"On the contrary, General Huangfu is a young and talented man with great military skills and no fear of the enemy. Once he seizes the opportunity, he can defeat the Qin army."
A wealthy family as big as Huangfu Yuqi certainly has connections between the DPRK and China.
When the minister said this, Prime Minister Wu said: "General Pei's strategy of holding on is based on intercepting the Qin army and forcing them to cross the Yangtze River. I think it is best not to make any changes."
"The Prime Minister's words are wrong." The minister said: "The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. If you are not sure of the decisive victory, it will be a waste of opportunity. If you blindly defend, you can only be passively beaten. And the Qin army has not retreated. Sooner or later, shield will be defeated. Broken with a spear.”
As he spoke, he added: "Besides, unlike the land battle on the Yangtze River, General Huangfu made four attacks and won a complete victory. This fully shows that he has a good grasp of fighter opportunities."
"Well..." King Wu nodded slowly when he heard this.
The minister bowed towards him and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I think that winning the battle is the most important thing. If General Huangfu commanded the army, at this moment, the King of Qin might have been defeated. "
"Furthermore, I heard that General Huangfu was looking for opportunities to fight and often provoked a fight. However, the King of Qin was afraid and did not dare to go out after hearing his name."
"Oh? Is this really happening?" King Wu was shocked.
"Yes." The minister said: "It can be seen that Huangfu Yuqi defeated the enemy army several times and made the Qin army frightened. On the battlefield, the general's deterrence is very important."
"Just like the battle between Qin and Beidi. Why did the King of Qin insist on sending Tang Yue to go? It was because Beidi was afraid of his name. If he was only present because of his reputation, he would have won by six points."
"Now that the Qin army is afraid of the name of General Huangfu, it will be easy for him to be the commander of our Wu army and defeat the enemy."
"It makes sense, it makes sense." King Wu nodded repeatedly.
When Wu Xiang saw this, he couldn't help but stood up and said, "Your Majesty!"
But before he finished speaking, the King of Wu raised his hand and said: "I understand what the Prime Minister meant. I was appointed commander-in-chief in the previous period, and you used the reason that Huangfu Yuqi was young. I didn't say anything, but What now? Pei Zong has made no achievements, but Huangfu Yuqi has made many military exploits. Facts have proved that Pei Zong is indeed old."
"This..." He spoke with facts. Huangfu Yuqi had indeed won consecutive battles, and Prime Minister Wu didn't know how to refute.
During this court meeting, it was reasonable for King Wu to appoint Huangfu Yuqi as his commander. He valued him, and the latter performed so well, so what else could be said.
Of course, this has a lot to do with Xiao Yuan's fueling the flames.
Without the Qin army's four defeats and the King of Qin's deliberate show of weakness, what would have happened today.
