Chapter 1006 Adding to the flames
Chapter 1006: The boost
Xiao Yuan sneered in his heart.
The plan of arrogance is obvious.
As the saying goes, the higher you hold, the worse you fall.
This is the case with Huangfu Yuqi now. Not only is he even more arrogant, but he has long looked down on the Qin army after winning battles.
Seeing that the King of Qin was not in the fight, he laughed again, shook his head and said, "The King of Qin has become a turtle, a rat, a rat..."
"Okay, go back to the camp!"
He waved his hand again as he said that.
The Wu army warships began to turn around.
Looking at this scene, Peng Shuang couldn't help but say, "King, Huangfu Yuqi, this kid, is too arrogant. I should have let the Clippers go around and take him in one fell swoop."
"Hey? If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. Killing Huangfu Yuqi can only make Pei Zong more difficult. Keeping him is the key to winning." Xiao Yuan said happily.
Huangfu Yuqi thought he was invincible, but he didn't know that all the victories he had won were deliberately given to him by the Qin army.
He didn't know that it was even more impossible for the generals of the Wu army to know. At the beginning, 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 spoke with some pleasing.
Someone said: "General Huangfu fought several times, not only severely defeated the Qin army, but also greatly increased the morale of our army..."
"Yes, with the general here, the Yangtze River is worry-free..."
"That's it." Huangfu Yuqi was not humble at all, and raised his head slightly and said, "This time I wanted to lead the King of Qin to fight, and surrounded and annihilate him, but he couldn't hide. What a pity."
As he spoke, he looked around again: "Hey, where is the old general Pei?"
"Ah, the old general went down to inspect the camp." A general returned.
Huangfu Yuqi nodded and changed his mind again: "I have said that retreating is not a way to fight. Unfortunately, the old general did not listen to me. If he had already fought with the Qin army and defeated him in one fell swoop, he would have taken advantage of the situation to regain Jiangling!"
This was so arrogant that the generals looked at each other first, and then laughed dryly, and there was nothing to say.
It is until evening.
Huangfu Yuqi's own military tent had a whole roast chicken and a jar of fine wine on several tables. He was born in a wealthy family. Even if the army was hard, he had to have big fish and meat for every meal.
At this moment, his subordinates walked in, looked at the roast chicken and wine, and swallowed first, then he bent down with his fists and said, "General."
"Ah, you're here, sit down." Huangfu Yuqi stretched out his hand and shouted again: "Guard! Come and get some more wine and food!"
"No!" The sergeant took the order and left.
The side general also happily sat down at his hands and said, "General, although our troops have many military achievements now, the navy commander is still Pei Zong. If this continues, even if he defeats the King of Qin, the greatest contribution will not fall on us. I am afraid that Pei Zong will get a bargain."
Hearing this, Huangfu Yuqi frowned and asked in a cold voice: "What do you mean..."
"The last general thinks that regardless of the ability to command troops or military planning, Pei Zong is not as good as a general. The position of commander of the Wu army is not a general." The side general said: "And this war will surely be recorded in history. If the general can take the position of commander, he will become famous all over the world. When it is time to fight, he should fight for it."
"Yeah... it makes sense..." Huangfu Yuqi narrowed his eyes and nodded slowly.
Now he has long looked down on Pei Zong, and even if he doesn't have any biased words, he will take action.
Later, in his letter to the King of Wu, he once again made a vague explanation that Pei Zong was old and had no intention of fighting. He only knew that he would remain unmoved. Not only was he attacked many times by the Qin army, but he also turned a blind eye to many fighter jets, which led to the unfavorable war.
The King of Wu admired Huangfu Yuqi more, and during this period, he had won consecutive victories, but Pei Zong did not make any achievements. It is conceivable that these two were compared.
And there have been many remarks recently that only Huangfu Yuqi can defeat the Qin army.
On this day, the Wu Kingdom held a meeting with the main hall.
There were many debates in the court about taking over the leadership, and the same is true today.
The group of old ministers led by Prime Minister Wu still insisted on their own opinions, believing that the veterans have rich experience and have their own principles to stick to.
But another minister came out and said: "General Pei is over fifty years old. He cares more about his reputation and only wants to be unbeaten. But in this way, when will the crisis in Jiangnan be resolved?"
"On the contrary, General Huangfu, a young talent, has a strong military strategy and is not afraid of the enemy. Once he seizes the opportunity, he can defeat the Qin army."
Of course, it is related to the wealthy family as big as Huangfu Yuqi.
When the minister said this, Wu Xiang said: "General Pei's strategy of defending was to intercept the Qin army and forcefully cross the Yangtze River. The minister believed that it was better not to make changes."
"The prime minister's words are wrong." The minister said: "The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. If you are not sure about it in a decisive battle, it is equivalent to missing the opportunity to fight. If you just defend, you can only be passively beaten. Moreover, the Qin army will never retreat. The shield will sooner or later be defeated by a spear."
As he said that, he said again: "Along the Yangtze River, there are different land battles. General Huangfu attacked four times and won a complete victory. From the midst, he can see his grasp of the fighter."
"Yeah..." King Wu nodded slowly when he heard this.
The minister bowed to him and said seriously: "King, I think that winning a battle is the most important thing. If General Huangfu commanded the troops, he might have defeated the King of Qin at this moment."
"And I have also heard that General Huangfu has sought many opportunities to fight and often leads to war. However, the King of Qin was afraid of it and did not dare to leave after hearing his name."
"Oh? Is this really the case?" The King of Wu was shocked.
"Yes." The minister said: "It can be seen from this that Huangfu Yuqi defeated the enemy several times, which made the Qin army frightened. On the battlefield, the deterrence of the chief general is very important."
"Just like the battle between Qin and Beidi, why did the King of Qin insist on letting Tang Yue go? Because Beidi was afraid of his name and only had a reputation, he won six points."
"Now, since the Qin army is afraid of General Huangfu's name, it would be easy to defeat the enemy if he was appointed as the commander of our Wu army."
"It makes sense, it makes sense." King Wu nodded repeatedly.
Seeing this, Wu Xiang couldn't help but stand up, "Master!"
But before he finished speaking, the King of Wu raised his hand and said, "I understand the meaning of the Prime Minister. I have become the general in the previous period. I will not say anything on Huangfu Yuqi's youngness. But now? Pei Zong has no achievements, but Huangfu Yuqi has made many military achievements. The facts prove that Pei Zong is indeed old."
"This..." He spoke with the facts, Huangfu Yuqi did win consecutive victories, and Wu Xiang didn't know how to refute it.
It was reasonable for King Wu to be the general of Huangfu Yuqi in this court discussion. He valued him, and the latter performed so well, so what else can I say?
Of course, this has a lot to do with Xiao Yuan's fuel tone.
If there were no Qin army defeats and the Qin King's deliberate weakness, how could this day happen?
