Chapter 777: Game within a game, plan within a plan [Please subscribe*Please vote for the monthly ticket]

Li Ren and Wei Ju knew that Xiong Qi was faking his rebellion, but Li Xin and the State of Qin did not know.

For this reason, Cao Shen, Li Xin and others thought of launching surprise attacks on Xia Cai and Ruyin.

As a result, the intelligence and information from all parties could not be communicated in a timely manner, resulting in a mess.

Xiong Qi, who withdrew his troops from Juyang to support Ruyin and Xiacai, was still thinking about how to let Li Ren and Wei Ju evacuate safely, but he never expected that he was actually being targeted by Li Ren and Cao Shen.

He is here to act, he is not really going to send them off with a large army.

He also wanted fame. Even if he gave away the Tenglong Legion, he could still say that it was Xiang Liang's poor command and the Qin army was too fierce, so they were destroyed by the Qin army before their support arrived, and it had nothing to do with him.

I never thought of sending the 70,000 troops I had.

"They really don't play by the rules and are trying to trick me!" Xiong Qi was still cursing.

These people are all just playing their own roles, and none of them are working according to the established strategy.

Just work hard according to the plan.

"So... I'm the only one who has become a fool?" Xiong Qi was speechless and looked up at the sky for a moment.

I originally thought that I had the best acting skills and was the best actor, but who would have thought that I was actually the worst one!

Everyone is showing off, and I am just foolishly acting according to the plan.

It's definitely the supporting role that is stealing the show.

As I was thinking about it, there was suddenly a commotion in the team ahead.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

The Sima of the front army immediately sent back the alarm of the enemy attack.

Xiong Qi had to collect his thoughts, walked out of the carriage and looked towards the dusty front.

After the smoke and dust cleared, Xiong Qi finally saw clearly what was happening ahead.

A bloody cavalry lined up in a row, blocking their way back to Xiacai.

Tall horses, flags like rainbows, ready for battle, with the flag with the word "Li" hanging high, who else could it be but the Bingzhou Blood Cavalry under Li Ren's command.

"Me! @#￥%￥" Xiong Qi cursed out loud.

As expected, it was myself who was being played!
Asking yourself to cheat the Tenglong Legion is just deceiving yourself.

Li Ren even deceived him, or rather, these people never believed him.

The target of Bingzhou and Qin State has never been the Tenglong Legion, but the army under their command!
"Tatata..."

Before Xiong Qi could finish his curse, he felt the ground shaking and there was a commotion behind the army.

Xiong Qi turned around and looked behind him, and saw another group of cavalrymen in red armor appeared behind them, also lined up in a row. There was no need to count them carefully, one could tell how many troops the other side had at a glance.

"I..." Xiong Qi felt a darkness before his eyes. He put all his energy into acting.

As a result, neither Bingzhou nor Qin State believed him from the beginning.

The two Bingzhou cavalry units, with a combined strength of 100,000 men, actually ambushed him outside Juyang.

How could he be so worthy as to be waited for in the wild by 100,000 Bingzhou Blood Riders?

"Does this need to be acted out?" Xiong Qi rolled his eyes.

Even if he didn't act and really fought, he didn't think he could defeat the Bingzhou Blood Cavalry, which numbered more than 100,000, in the wild.

"Two hours at most!" Xiong Qi sighed, pretending to command the army to defend. But the Bingzhou Blood Cavalry had set up their formation and launched a charge. Who in the world could stop them?

What's more, they were attacked from both sides by the Bingzhou Blood Cavalry.

The war horses galloped and charged towards the 70,000 troops under Xiong Qi's command.

In just one encounter, the entire army was pierced, and the end of the battle was cut off, without any chance to fight back.

"Follow my orders, lay down your weapons and surrender!" Xiong Qi was too lazy to give orders anymore.

He couldn't win, he couldn't win at all, and he didn't even want to fight, so after the army was dispersed, Xiong Qi directly ordered surrender.

After all, surrendering early could reduce losses and avoid the death of 70,000 men in vain.

What's more, the sooner they surrender, the more time they will have to plan whether to set a trap for the Tenglong Legion or for Ji Bu.

"What an acting talent..." Li Ren couldn't help but twitching his lips when he saw Xiong Qi cutting off his own banner and surrendering after just one encounter.

He knew that Xiong Qi was acting, but he didn't expect that Xiong Qi, who started to act after just one encounter, had such extraordinary acting skills.

You just have to struggle a bit and pretend a bit.

As for Cao Shen, he didn't know that Xiong Qi was acting. He was just confused as to why the Chu army was so weak that they surrendered after just one encounter.

"So bad?" Cao Shen frowned.

So when the Bingzhou cavalry captured Xiong Qi's 70,000 troops, after the three main generals met, Li Ren and Cao Shen both looked at Xiong Qi with contempt.

"You guys are playing me!" Xiong Qi really felt that he was being played by both sides, so he came up to complain first.

"Huh?" Cao Shen was stunned and looked at Li Ren hesitantly.

He really didn't know that Xiong Qi was acting and thought that Xiong Qi had really betrayed him.

"No, your acting skills are so bad!" Li Ren complained.

"We agreed that I would play Xiang Liang and you would go to deal with Shouchun, but you ended up targeting me!" Xiong Qi continued to appeal. He was really cheated.

"..." Li Ren was embarrassed and scratched his hair, as if it was really him and Wei Ju who ruined the plan.

"You guys?" Cao Shen also reacted belatedly.

"Don't talk!" Li Ren and Wei Ju had already realized that they were wrong. They really tricked Xiong Qi and put on an act. Naturally, they would not let Cao Shen expose them.

Looking at Li Ren and Wei Ju, who looked unfathomable, Cao Shen decisively chose to shut up.

No matter Li Ren, Wei Ju or Xiong Qi, their status was much higher than his. He was the most humble person present. Moreover, these three people seemed to be making some shocking plan. He was just a chess piece in this game. Even Xiong Qi, who was supposed to be a chess player, was trapped and turned into a chess piece by the other two guys.

Thinking of this, Cao Shen was even more afraid to speak. It was a game within a game, a chess game within a chess game. He, a small fry, should not get involved.

Moreover, based on the information spoken by several people, Cao Shen also made up a lot of things in his mind on his own.

Originally, Xiong Qi pretended to rebel, and then led his troops north to play the role of Tenglong Legion. The specific details of how it was played out are still unknown, but it will definitely cause serious losses to the Tenglong Legion. In this game, Changping Jun Xiong Qi is the most critical link.

However, Li Ren and Wei Ju did not trust Xiong Qi very much, so they set up a trap within a trap, deliberately setting a trap for Xiong Qi and letting him lead his army north to provide assistance. Then Bingzhou cut off the connection between Shouchun of Chu State and Xiong Qi and the Tenglong Legion, forcing Xiong Qi to return for assistance. Then, they calculated their own arrival and directly devoured Xiong Qi's 70,000 troops, leaving the Tenglong Legion isolated.

Simply put, Xiong Qi was cheated.

Xiong Qi thought that Bingzhou wanted the Tenglong Legion, but in fact, Bingzhou wanted the Tenglong Legion and the 70,000 troops under Xiong Qi.

After thinking about it, Cao Shen just felt it was too terrible. He would not even know how he would die if he competed with this group of people.
