From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

"I recognize... I recognize you... you are General Wu..."

He spoke hesitantly.

Who in the entire Wei army doesn’t know Wu Fengdeng now?

Long before he set out to aid Daliang, he had often heard this name. He didn't feel anything before, he just thought he was a genius god of war.

But now he was facing him in person and saw with his own eyes that Wu Fengdeng beheaded Gongsun Mang by himself. Such terrifying fighting power was far beyond his imagination. Only then did he understand how terrifying the young man in front of him was.

"Very good, then I will not waste any more words."

Wu Fengdeng said in a deep voice: "I can definitely let you go and let you return to Xinzheng."

"Thank you, General Wu, for sparing my life! Thank you, General Wu, for sparing my life!"

Upon hearing this, the deputy general burst into tears and was extremely surprised.

"But you need to help me pass on a message to Gongsun Qi."

Wu Fengdeng paused, then said word by word, "Tell him that within two days, we will capture Daliang, kill his entire family, and make their so-called shitty Wei-Qi coalition army become a lost dog!"

His words successfully froze the smile on the deputy general's face, and he stood there in shock.

Are you sure you're not saying this to kill me?
The deputy general swallowed his saliva and said with a bitter smile: "General Wu, this... is not a good thing to say. General Gongsun will kill me if he hears it."

Wu Fengdeng nodded when he heard this: "Really? Then I will kill you now."

After saying that, he suddenly broke his neck and threw him aside.

"Bring another lieutenant here."

Not long after, when the captain heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat. However, when he looked at the body of the deputy general with his cervical vertebra sticking out from the back of his head, he still gasped.

"Yes, yes, I will definitely convey it!"

He naturally understood that if he showed any hesitation at this moment, he would surely die miserably, so no matter what Wu Fengdeng said, he had to agree.

At worst, I can just not say this after returning to the camp.

Or maybe, just don’t go back at all!
His idea was clever, but Wu Fengdeng's next words made him despair: "Boy, Gongsun Qi has people from my Great Qin. If I find out that you didn't tell me, or didn't go back at all, I will come to your house and make you live a life worse than death."

The captain trembled all over after hearing this, and could only nod his head repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, I will definitely do as General Wu says!"

"Get him a horse and get out of here."

The others dragged the frightened captain away, and a moment later he was seen riding a horse and disappearing into the darkness in the southwest.

Seeing that they had completely left, Li Qunfang scratched his head and asked Wu Fengdeng: "General Wu, are there any of our troops in the Wei army? Why have I never heard you mention it?"

Since the war broke out, he has been almost inseparable from Wu Fengdeng. He knows everything about who he has seen and what he has done, but he has never heard that they have anyone on Gongsun Qi's side.

Wu Fengdeng patted his shoulder and said helplessly: "Of course you haven't heard of it. That was just something I made up."

This was a little trick that Wu Fengdeng came up with on the spur of the moment. Its main purpose was to ensure that the captain could return to the Wei camp and to anger Gongsun Qi so that he would send more troops to support him.

In addition, if they are lucky, they can also arouse suspicion within the Wei army.

No matter whether you are a smart person or not, hearing the words "there is an undercover agent" will inevitably plant the seeds of suspicion.

Li Qun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly it dawned on him: "Ah! I understand!"

"Tell the brothers to clean up the battlefield as soon as possible. We will return to the camp in two quarters of an hour and send a letter to Xinzheng to report our battle situation in the past few days."

"Here!"

……

dawn.

The sun rose in the east, shining on Xinzheng City, but only the ruins of war were exposed, and blood flowed like a river. It was like a hideous wound under the gauze, ruthlessly torn open by the light.

A few miles away was the Wei army camp and the central army tent.

"During last night's attack, our army successfully broke through the two city gates in the northeast of Xinzheng, destroyed the city gates, and killed more than a thousand enemies!"

"The Qi army has also made considerable progress. They have smashed the Xinzheng city walls to pieces, causing serious damage to the Qin army's defenses!"

"In summary, our Wei-Qi coalition achieved a breakthrough last night. The next attack should be a general attack to completely capture Xinzheng!"

A deputy general supervising the battle read the battle report loudly and proudly, causing many Wei army generals present to cheer and jump for joy.

It’s been a month!
Finally, we can see the dawn of victory in breaking the city!
"Hahaha, it seems that Wang Jian is nothing special!"

"As long as we capture Xinzheng, Yingchuan County will be in our hands. That will be our first great victory in this battle!"

"That's right. As long as we prepare for war, once Yan and Chu win, we can rush forward and attack the Qin mainland!"

"The destruction of Qin is just around the corner!"

"Does Wu Fengdeng still want to use tricks to force us to retreat? Humph, wait until we capture Xinzheng, then we will come back and deal with him properly!"

……

Listening to the generals' fantasies, the skinny old man at the front also showed a rare look of relief, stroking his long beard and nodding lightly.

Gongsun Qi has been a soldier all his life, and this will be the most glorious battle of his life!

He laughed and said, "Haha, you guys are so motivated, I am very pleased."

"I think our Great Wei has been declining over the years, with internal and external troubles, and it has been very difficult. But now it can be said that the hard work has paid off, and the time for revival is just around the corner."

"Long live the Great Wei!"

The generals shouted in unison, and their morale was very high.

"Report——!"

At this moment, a sudden voice from outside interrupted the shouts of the generals.

They all turned around and saw a captain covered in blood rushing into the tent and kneeling on the ground.

"My humble servant greets the General!"

Gongsun Qi saw that he was just a small lieutenant who suddenly broke into his tent. This rash behavior should be punished, but because he was in a good mood, he did not care about it and asked in a cold voice: "What's the matter with the panic?"

"Hey, aren't you the quartermaster captain under Gongsun Mang?" Someone recognized him at this time.

He trembled and said, "Yes, it's a villain."

"General, something terrible has happened. When General Gongsun Mang was leading us through Yuling Gorge, we were suddenly ambushed by Wu Fengdeng of the Qin army. The 20,000-man army... was completely wiped out."

"what?!"

As soon as these words came out, it was as if endless cold water was poured on the fire of celebration. All the generals stood up in astonishment. Even Gongsun Qi couldn't sit still and stood up and shouted: "Twenty thousand troops are gone just like that?!"

The captain was so scared that he prostrated himself on the ground: "Yes, yes... I dare not lie..."

A terrifying chill suddenly erupted from Gongsun Qi's body, and the air pressure in the entire tent seemed to drop a lot.

"Where is General Gongsun Mang?"

"The general...died for his country..."

Boom~
The tent was instantly overturned by the terrifying aura of the Zhenwu Realm. Gongsun Qi's hair and beard swung wildly, unable to hide his anger.

"Damn Wu Fengdeng!"

He spoke hoarsely and gnashed his teeth, his face turning blue with anger.

The situation was originally so good, but I didn't expect such an accident to happen on Gongsun Mang's side!
He's my own brother!

"This bastard Wu Fengdeng is so arrogant!"

"He is clearly blocking the important roads and attacking the reinforcements. Who gave him the courage?"

"We have to deal with him now!"

……

The good mood of the generals disappeared, and they were filled with indignation, and wanted to tear Wu Fengdeng to pieces immediately.

Whoosh~ The strong wind blew for ten breaths. Gongsun Qi forced himself to suppress his anger and calm down.

Now is not the time to be angry. Wu Fengdeng deserves to be killed, but the most urgent task is how to support Daliang without affecting the battle situation in Xinzheng.

Moreover, they must be able to defeat the army under Wu Fengdeng, otherwise it would be in vain no matter how many people they go.

But after thinking about it, Gongsun Qi found that he couldn't coordinate it at all.

An army of 20,000 was ambushed and annihilated. If they wanted to break through Wu Fengdeng's ambush, they would need to mobilize at least 40,000 troops, and they would also need a master of the Qi Conservation Realm who could defeat Wu Fengdeng, or two people who were equally matched would also be fine.

At this critical moment of capturing Xinzheng, any of these conditions would greatly weaken the combat effectiveness of the Wei army.

This is difficult to deal with!

Just when Gongsun Qi was frowning, he suddenly thought of a feasible plan.

"The entrance to Yuling Gorge is located on the straight line from Xinzheng to Daliang. Wu Fengdeng calculated that Brother Mang would be in a hurry to travel and go that way, so he could set up an ambush successfully."

"If I send another commander to lead 20,000 troops to support us, and take a detour instead of going through Yuling Gorge, we can make him helpless. After all, he won't know which way our army will take."

"For an army of 20,000, the loss of one commander is not a serious blow to the current situation and is relatively feasible."

Gongsun Qi immediately made up his mind and shouted, "General Wei Gang!"

"The general is here!"

"I'll have you lead 20,000... never mind, 30,000 troops to support Daliang. Be careful, don't go through Yuling Gorge. It will take more time if you take a detour."

"Here!"

After Gongsun Qi had mobilized his troops, he saw the captain still kneeling on the ground, saying coldly, "Retreat."

"General..."

But he was seen kneeling on the ground, hesitating, stammering, and looking around in panic.

"Wu Fengdeng... has... something to tell you..."

"Speak." Gongsun Qi's mouth twitched.

The captain closed his eyes and bowed his head, saying, "He, he said that he would capture Daliang within two days, and make our Wei-Qi coalition army homeless..."

"How dare you! With the enemy at hand, you dare to disrupt the morale of our army!"

His discouraging words immediately aroused the anger of the generals, and they were about to execute him on the spot.

The captain was so frightened that he was shaking all over, and he kept saying, "I dare not! I dare not! But Wu Fengdeng said that if I don't convey his message, he will kill my whole family!"

"He asked you to speak nonsense, and you did it? Can he have clairvoyance and clairaudience?"

"Wu Fengdeng said that there are spies from the Qin army in our army. If I don't tell him, he will know it, and then..."

After these words were spoken, all the generals changed their expressions and were slightly shocked.

spy?

The unfamiliar words left them stunned for a moment.

You know, the Qin State was an expert in playing political games, and since ancient times, it had committed countless crimes by bribing spies.

Take the recent State of Zhao for example. It was by bribing Guo Kai that they were able to remove the tough nut of Li Mu and successfully capture Handan and destroy Zhao.

Could it be that there were spies among the Wei army?

"Asshole! How dare you sow discord? You should exterminate all your clans!"

At this time, a general named Wei Yong next to Gongsun Qi became furious. He immediately drew his sword and cut off the captain's head, and blood splattered on the spot.

"Drag him out and kill all nine generations of his clan!"

Wei Yong shouted angrily, and when he turned around, he found that the generals around him were looking at him with complicated eyes. He immediately held his breath and realized that something was wrong.

But before he could say anything, Gongsun Qi waved his hand and said gloomily, "Don't think too much, this must be Wu Fengdeng's trick to sow discord."

"The Qin State has always used these unorthodox methods in order to shake the morale of our army. This shows that they are at their wit's end and have no choice but to resort to these shady tricks."

"Our army is about to capture Xinzheng, we must unite as one!"

"As ordered!"

The generals stood up and shouted.

However, the waves in each of their hearts were still not calmed down.

Is it really just a ploy to sow discord?
……

Xinzheng, Royal Palace.

A heavy feeling.

The dozen or so deputy generals who gathered together all had gloomy faces and were more or less injured. Even Wang Jian was wrapped in gauze.

It's too awful.

This battle was so tragic and frustrating.

They watched helplessly as the city gates and walls of Xinzheng were destroyed by the enemy, but they had no power to fight back and even protecting themselves was extremely difficult.

If Yi Su had not brought the Taoist disciples to help in time at the critical moment, the city would have been breached by now.

The next battle will undoubtedly be a decisive battle that determines life or death.

"Everyone, this is a matter of life and death for Yingchuan County. We have tried our best and we need to do our best in the future. There is still a chance to turn things around."

Wang Jian felt the dead morale and had no intention of reviving it, so he could only speak helplessly.

At this time, a man limped out and asked, "General, is there still no news about Wu Fengdeng?"

"Yes, he still has 20,000 elite fire-armored soldiers under his command, and he has already advanced to the Qi Conservation Realm. How come he is nowhere to be seen in such an important battle in Xinzheng?"

"Is he still defending Xuanyuan Pass?"

"Why has Lord Shenyong become so rigid at this time?"

The generals were quite dissatisfied.

Xinzheng was the heart of Yingchuan County. Garrisons from various units gathered to defend the city, but Wu Fengdeng's subordinates were nowhere to be seen, which made them very dissatisfied.

Wang Jian sighed slightly, his face looking even more vicissitudes: "I have sent three letters, but there has been no reply from Xuanyuan Pass. I don't know where Wu Fengdeng is now."

Now Xinzheng was surrounded tightly, and the scouts could not get out, so they could only send letters by carrier pigeons. However, every letter sent out was like a stone sinking into the sea with no response.

Wang Jian then looked at Yi Su beside him, who had a calm expression and deep eyes, and remained silent.

Seeing this, he keenly noticed some clues.

They couldn't contact Wu Fengdeng, but Yi Su should be able to contact Jiang Qiyu, after all, he was his beloved disciple.

But she remained silent from beginning to end and refused to reveal a word.

Is there any secret that you can't tell me?

Wang Jian frowned slightly and was thinking carefully when he heard some commotion below.

The generals were mocking him openly or covertly.

"Can he bear to watch us fight to the death here and do nothing?"

"Oh, don't say that. The brave man has made great achievements in battle. He will not be a coward and avoid a fight."

"That's what he said, but now it's the last minute. It would be inappropriate for him not to show up with the most elite Fire Armor Army!"

……

"Report! General! General!"

"There's a letter from General Wu!" (End of this chapter)
