Chapter 1343 Asking for a Fight

"Black Charcoal Head!"

Li Kui glared at Sui Sheng fiercely. He expected Sui Sheng to give him a good idea, but Sui Sheng started to sow discord as soon as he came up.

"I'm doing this for your own good, but you need discipline!"

Sui Sheng ignored Li Kui and left directly. He would continue to guard the Chinese army camp.

"How many of you dare to rebel?"

Li Kui looked back at Bao Xu and the others and shouted.

Bao Xu and the other three ignored Li Kui this time and turned around and returned to their own camp, leaving only Li Kui in a mess.

Inside the Chinese army camp.

"You're still here!"

Sun Lei looked at Zongze and everyone and smiled.

"Your Majesty, we are here to invite you to fight!"

Everyone saluted together.

"Please fight? Haha, the level of this battle is too high, your soldiers are not suitable to participate in the battle!"

Sun Lei looked at everyone and said, Qi's army has a complete organization. The soldiers, officers, and generals are all ready and well coordinated. At this time, unfamiliar generals cannot be added.

"Your Majesty, although we are old and our soldiers have poor combat effectiveness, we are still willing to be the vanguard and defeat some enemies!"

Zhongshizhong said that he was unwilling to watch this battle end.

"No, this method of fighting will lead to a rout and affect the morale of the army. A rout will increase the enemy's arrogance and impact our army's formation!"

Xu Guanzhong directly vetoed it. There could be no surprises in this kind of elite battle, not to mention that now that Sun Lei was on a personal expedition, stability was the most important thing.

"Your Majesty, you can draw over 100,000 elites from the Forbidden Army and the Western Army. It will not be a problem to draw out 5,000 to 7,000 real elites!"

Zongze expressed his thoughts. He had thought about this problem when he came here, and he also thought of a solution.

"Draw out the best!"

Everyone looked at Zongze. The hundreds of thousands of Forbidden Army and Western Army were already "elite". Among ordinary people, they were only one out of ten. Now after further screening, they were only one out of a hundred. This combat power should be It's enough to cope with the upcoming battle.

"That's a good idea."

Sun Lei touched his chin and nodded. He had thought about this too, but he didn't think it was necessary. He didn't lack such people around him.

"Then you go ahead and do it. As for you?"

Sun Lei looked at the crowd. These were all generals of the Song Dynasty. Most of them came from the Western Army and were quite young.

"Your Majesty thinks we are too old?"

A veteran looked at Sun Lei and asked.

"That's the idea, but don't get me wrong. I'm not doubting your ability. Each of you has been on the battlefield for a long time. Although you are older, your combat power has not diminished and you are rich in experience. I just don't think you need to go to the battlefield to kill!"

Sun Lei looked at the veteran generals and said, it is indeed possible to draw elites from the Forbidden Army and the Western Army to fight, but the cohesion of the cobbled together army will definitely not work. This kind of army will be very serious in a war, and these veteran generals may have a narrow escape from death.

"Your Majesty, I have been in the army all my life, and I have always dreamed that one day, I will die on the battlefield even if I die!"

Master Zhong opened his mouth and said.

"Don't say such depressing words. In a war, you don't go to die. Why don't you live and win?"

Sun Lei looked at Zhong Shidao speechlessly, and then at the veterans who were looking forward to death, feeling a little headache.

"You haven't gotten used to our Qi country yet! It is an honor to die in battle, but death in battle is not necessary. What we want is victory. This is the most important thing. How much you can do while ensuring victory is your ability!" Go to hell, you are the worst!" Sun Lei looked at the veterans and educated them. These people may be more than two thousand years old in total, but their heads are still old.

"Forehead!"

All the veterans were stunned. Ever since they entered the army, they had received the honor of dying in battle. How come they became the worst in Sun Lei?

"Zongze, go and teach them slowly, don't die after the battle!"

Sun Lei waved his hand and asked Zong Ze to lead everyone away. He was too lazy to explain and couldn't explain it.

"Your Majesty, these old generals are really dedicated to serving the country!"

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile.

"Haha, after all, they have been in trouble at the border all their lives. Naturally, they cannot give up this opportunity to be proud."

Sun Lei can actually understand the thoughts of these people. Everyone wants to leave a name behind them, especially after reaching a certain age.

These old generals are all capable and ambitious. For many years at the border, all they wanted to do was to repel the foreigners who had been marauding every year. However, the court was full of cowards and sycophants, and all they could do to the outside world was beg for mercy in exchange for peace.

This made the border army generals hold their breath and feel even more humiliated in their hearts. These accumulated emotions have now exploded.

"Alas, everything is ready now. All we need is the east wind. I don't know when the east wind will come!"

Sun Lei looked in the direction of Tribulus Mountain. He was waiting for Wanyan Wu to attack.

"Your Majesty, judging from the intelligence we have found, it should be within the next two days, and they can't wait any longer!"

Xu Guanzhong opened his mouth and said that the war between Lin Chong and Wang Jin was going very smoothly. The two Jin armies were beaten and retreated steadily, and there were already signs of defeat. If Wanyan Wu Qimai didn't take action, the two armies should come back.

"Wanyan Wu is also cruel when begging for money. The entire other ethnic groups in Liaodong have been abandoned by him!"

Sun Lei shook his head and said, most of the two armies that restrained Lin Chong and Wang Jin were from the Khitan, Bohai, Xi, etc. tribes in Liaodong, and the brutality of this battle was enough to kill and injure most of the young adults of these ethnic groups, and they would not be able to recover for a hundred years. , some small tribes are even equal to direct annihilation.

"This can be regarded as helping us level Liaodong and saving us the trouble of cleaning up again later!"

Xu Guanzhong smiled and said, although the words were a bit cold-blooded, the fact is that Liaodong is a remote but rich place that is difficult to manage. It is not good for the Central Plains to sit back and watch the aliens grow.

"Haha, they are desperate, so I will let them do whatever they want. Is there no response from the grassland yet? What is this guy like me doing!"

Sun Lei asked again.

"There is no reply from the grassland yet. Only the Tata'er tribe is following the Jin Kingdom and is determined to be the enemy of our Qi Kingdom."

Xu Guanzhong said.

"Tata'er tribe, Temujin! Seeking death!"

Sun Lei sneered and said, the entire grassland did not dare to move, but the Tatar tribe was jumping up and down. If they were to die forever, where would the majesty of Qi be?

"Send someone to send a message to all tribes in the grassland. Whoever destroys the Tata tribe will be interviewed by me later!"

Sun Lei said directly that he wanted the people in the grassland to make a choice. Even if they did not fight against the Jin Kingdom, they would still have to sign a pledge of surrender.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Wu immediately recorded it and asked his soldiers to pass on the order.

"Your Majesty, the Tatar tribe's 150,000 troops have arrived at Tribulus Mountain and are likely to participate in this battle. After all, there are 70,000 more enemies than us!"

Zhu Wu looked at Sun Lei and said that he understood the strength comparison between the two sides, but this was only a comparison of numbers. The real combat power was not determined by numbers.

"Don't worry about them, just follow our plan!"

Sun Lei shook his head and said that paying too much attention to the enemy would make him confused.
