I have lived forever since the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 125 The Angry Wei Bao
Daliang City, the palace of the Western Wei Dynasty.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"My great Wei cavalry is invincible in the world!"

"I, Ji Bao, will not be weaker than others in my life!"

"Suddenly attack and attack, I should have the advantage!"

Ji Bao roared with shame on his face and dropped the battle report, walked back and forth a few steps, then kicked over the document in front of him to vent his anger.

The messenger who came to report the situation knelt down on the ground, trembling and afraid to speak.

Taking a few deep breaths, Ji Bao's expression was still quite ugly, and he said in a deep voice, "Didn't two centurions come back? Call them here, I just want to ask questions."

"No." After the messenger replied, he didn't dare to raise his head, and walked out of the hall slowly with his head down. When he retreated to the steps, he felt that the cold and tyrannical gaze that had been sticking to his body disappeared.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and whispered, "It's really terrifying."

With Wei Bao's anxious performance just now, he thought that the dogs in Daliang City would have to be stabbed to relieve their hatred.

However, he has already completed his task of sending the message, and he will call the two centurions who came back from the defeat in the east of the river, and he will not enter this hall today even if he is killed.

In case of any bad luck, more than one suit of clothes will be lost, maybe the thing around the neck will be gone.

……

"I'm just asking you two, my great Wei's [-] elite cavalry set up an ambush in Zhongtiao Mountain, why was almost the entire army wiped out and only a hundred cavalry escaped?" Even after half an hour passed, Ji Bao still had a livid face.

His heart is bleeding now!
The land of the Western Wei Dynasty was not considered prosperous at all, and more than [-] cavalry were raised at the expense of national power.

What's more, the [-] cavalry are the elite who have gone through the battle of destroying Korea.

The results of it?
Not to mention the fact that the battle ended in vain, it is like the money in the leek account in the stock market in later generations, and you can't even hear it after the fight.

How can this make him angry!

In Ji Bao's perception, even if the ambush failed, their casualties should not be too great.

Throughout the ages, how can there be any reason why the ambush side was completely wiped out without getting the result?

Simply ridiculous.

Looking at the two unkempt centurions who were escorted up, Ji Bao snorted coldly.

They were treated as deserters, and they had just been lifted out of the prison, with shackles on their feet.Although I changed into clean clothes before coming to the main hall, it must be too late to take a shower.

"I would like to ask you, is there a traitor among our Great Wei cavalry, or did we leak the news in advance, causing the Chu army to discover your traces, so that the ambush plan in Zhongtiao Mountain failed?" Ji Bao felt that if this did not happen, the Great Wei cavalry he carefully cultivated would never fail.

"Your Majesty is asking a question, please answer quickly." The guard next to him reprimanded him in a pretentious manner.

The expressions of the two centurions were quite numb, but one of them turned his head sideways, narrowed his eyes slightly, and grinned at the guard, revealing his white teeth.

This was the first time that guard saw a real murderous look in someone's eyes, as if he was being targeted by a hungry wolf.

He swallowed, not daring to speak out, but he couldn't stop muttering in his heart.

Isn't this a deserter on the battlefield? How could his eyes be so horizontal, it scared me to death.

"Your Majesty." The centurion said hoarsely, "General Chang led us to ambush the Chu army on Zhongtiao Mountain. First, about [-] Chu troops arrived..."

Ji Bao was originally listening to the report with anger.

It's just that when he heard the back, he felt like he was going to tremble all over. In this hot day, his whole body was sweating and his hands and feet were cold.

"You mean..." Sensing that his voice was trembling, Ji Bao coughed lightly, adjusted and said, "You mean that the seven thousand infantry held you back and prevented you from getting out in time, and then Xiang Yu led the main cavalry of the Chu army over, and finally defeated you?"

The centurion's expression hadn't changed much, but the fear shown at this moment could not be restrained.

He squatted down, hugged his head and whispered indiscriminately: "Yes, that's right, my lord, that's right. Those Chu people are not humans, they are mountain ghosts. After they charge, none of us can escape...Ahhh!"

"Take it down." Looking at the soldier suffering from post-war traumatic stress syndrome, Ji Bao didn't want to provide him with psychological counseling. After all, in a few days, the other party would be cured physically.

Ji Bao looked at another silent centurion and asked slowly, "Is what he said true?"

"Report to the king, it is like this." The centurion seemed calm and normal.

He lowered his head and replied: "Originally we were in a tailwind, even if those pawns wanted to resist us, they could only resist with their flesh and blood, but they did not pose much threat to us.

But the cavalry of the Chu Army came over... the big bloody banner, where it arrived, my companions fell in pieces and were harvested.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty, they are all dead, like a rootless weed blown up by the wind, and I am also a weed, but I just floated up and was hung on the top of a tree... Dead, all dead. "

The original calm exposition turned into frantic ravings when it mentioned the support of the Chu army cavalry, and the content of the narration gradually became indescribable.

"Take him down, take him down with me too." Ji Bao waved his hand in annoyance, not wanting to fill his ears with these random and useless messages.

He didn't rub his eyebrows until the world was cleared up.

These two centurions are veterans who have experienced more than ten wars, and logically speaking, their psychological quality should be very good.

But they were almost half mad with fright.

"Chu Jun, Xiang Yu, are they really that scary?" Ji Bao closed his eyes slightly.

Although the last message conveyed by the two centurions was chaotic, from their dictation and the content of the battle report, I can analyze most of the facts.

That is, six days ago, the reversal of the war in the Hedong area was due to the subsequent addition of the cavalry of the Chu army. The [-] cavalry of the Western Wei Dynasty were unable to make any effective resistance and were washed away.

Therefore, the final "result" of that attack was to exchange six thousand elite cavalry from the Chu army for two to three thousand infantry and less than five hundred cavalry.

Ji Bao felt his breathing became short of breath, stood up again, and kicked over the copybook in front of him.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! They are all cavalry, why are the cavalry of the Chu army so powerful? I don't believe it, I never believe it, there must be a ghost inside, who betrayed me."

He summoned his personal guards and ordered: "You go and call the imperial guards. I have to check carefully which rebellious ministers have had correspondence with the outside during this period. They must be the ones who revealed our military secrets. It is absolutely unforgivable."

Ji Bao had already decided that he had to settle down first in order to fight against the outside world, and clean up Daliang City first, so that he could have the capital to fight against the Chu army.
