Chapter 31: The Pawn
The next day, the Tao army camped. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the big tent of the Chinese army, the potter was holding the battle book of Zang Ba, and a sneer appeared on his young face.
Zang Ba finally couldn't hold it anymore, and openly issued this extremely provocative war letter, agreeing that at noon today, the two armies would fight to the death outside the south gate of Kaiyang.
"Childe, that Zang Ba really took the initiative to challenge, how did Childe decide?" Mulan looked at the potter in surprise.
The potter threw away the war book, "I asked Mi Zhen to secretly send grain and grass, and I left her in the camp, just because I didn't want Zang Ba to know that we had replenished the grain and grass, so that he mistakenly thought that our grain and grass were exhausted, and the army's morale was turbulent. β
Hua Mulan suddenly realized, and then she understood why she asked Mi Zhen to send grain and grass at night, and why she was so confident before, and it was expected that Zang Ba would definitely go out of the city to fight.
It turned out that everything was under the control of the potter.
The enlightened Hua Mulan looked at the potter again and couldn't help but add a deep admiration.
"Reply to Zang Ba, I will fight him to the death in the afternoon!" The potter made a decision.
Then, he stretched out his hand again, took advantage of Mulan's inattention, patted her buttocks lightly, and said with a smile: "Let the soldiers have a full meal and prepare for a big kill." β
Hua Mulan didn't expect the potter's hand to come, so she was caught off guard and gave a pat, her buttocks trembled, her face suddenly flushed, and she gave him a shy and unangry look, so she answered the word "promise" and left in a hurry.
When she stepped out of the big tent, her lips were slightly raised, but the corners of her mouth quietly swept a light smile.
"Tick...... The system scanned that Mulan produced love, and the host obtained 9 benevolence points, and the existing benevolence points were 62. β
The potter was happy in his heart, he was just interested together, and took advantage of Mulan's "cheapness", but he didn't expect Mulan to be angry, and he even had a point of benevolence, which was really unexpected.
"Now even touching the ass can produce benevolence, it seems that Mulan's psychological defense line is getting weaker and weaker, it seems that next time, it will not be as simple as touching the ass......"
The potter's eyes burst out with evil intent, and the corners of his mouth raised a wicked smile.
After a moment of reverie, the potter forcibly abandoned his thoughts, calmed down, and returned to the upcoming decisive battle.
"That Zang Ba's force is not weak, and the strength of the enemy and our two armies is equal, now that Xu Sheng is harassing the enemy at sea, Fan Hao is in Imminqiu to guard against Guan Yu, and there is only one Mulan left by my side, I am afraid that it is not Zang Ba's opponent, it seems that it is time to summon another heroic soul."
Thinking of this, the potter commanded the system elf with his mind: "System elf, calculate my existing benevolence points, and then convert all the cruelty points into benevolence points, how many benevolence points do I have?" β
"Tick...... After the system calculates, after deducting the conversion consumption points, the host can have 89 benevolence points. β
89 points of benevolence, which means that the potter can summon a heroic soul with a single value of around 89, or even break through 90.
Of course, the strategist Tao Shang doesn't need it now, his most urgent thing is to summon a general who can compete with Zang Ba, with a force value of 90, not to mention Zang Ba, even if it is a super-first-class military general like Guan Yu, he can barely carry it.
"System elves, exchange all the brutality points for benevolence points for me, and then transfer all the heroic souls I can summon for me."
The potter ordered, and a list of heroic souls immediately appeared in his mind.
Although his charm value has increased a lot now, the generals with a force value of more than 89 are not only now, even if they are placed in the previous generation, they are also one of the few existences, and the initial loyalty of these heroic souls must be above 0, so there are not many heroic souls that can be summoned by the potter.
"We must not only ensure that we defeat Zang Ba, but also kill him unexpectedly, after all, Fan Hao has already taught him a lesson last time, and he can't be suspicious......"
The potter browsed through the list of heroic souls, examining their data, his mind racing, weighing the pros and cons.
After a while, the potter's mind was fixed on a name, and a sly smile rose on the corner of his mouth, "It's him, he can definitely give Zang Ba a big surprise." β
"Tick...... The system is ready to load the Heroic Soul, please ask the host to select the Heroic Soul Body. β
β¦β¦
It's noon.
Dark clouds cover the sun, and the heavens and the earth are killed.
The 1,500-strong soldiers of the Tao family army have finished the formation, with swords and guns lined up, and the battle flags rolling like waves.
Under the banner of the word "Tao" in the Chinese army, the potter held his sword immediately, and his eagle eyes were as cold as ice, staring coldly at Kaiyang City.
As soon as noon passed, the south gate of Kaiyang City was opened, and the Taishan Kou, who also had 1,500 people, drove out of the city in an orderly manner, and lined up with the city back.
The morale of the Taishan Kou seems to have been restored, the order is in order, and there is no slackness, which shows the strictness of Zang Ba's management of the army.
Looking at the enemy's formation, even though Tao Jian secretly admired and appreciated Zang Ba's ability to govern the army.
At the head of the city, Sun Gan, who was watching the battle, still had a smile on his face, but there was a bit of sinister in his smile, he stroked his white beard lightly, and sneered secretly in his mouth: "Pottery merchant, you are really bold, the grain and grass are cut off, the army's heart is in chaos, and you dare to fight, hum, let Zang Ba destroy you today, and then General Yun Chang will destroy Zang Ba, the thorn in the eye and the thorn in the flesh of your two lords will finally be pulled out together, hehe......"
Sun Qian sneered at the head of the city, but Zang Ba, who stood behind the city, was endless, holding a gun and prancing on a horse, and the leader of Taishan Kou, who was fierce and murderous, had only one thought in his mind at this moment:
Kill the potter!
The array was over, Zang Ba tightened his armor, pulled his horse and carried a gun, and rode out of the battle slowly, the cold and arrogant eagle eyes shot at the potter's place, pointed at the big gun, and shouted: "Potter, you Zang Ye is here, dare to go out to fight with the master." β
Zang Ba's fierce and confident challenge sound, like the roar of a wild beast, spread throughout the four fields, and both armies heard it.
"You want to fight, Zang Ba, you know that Fan Hao is not by my side, and you obviously want to bully people......" The potter frowned slightly.
The two armies fought several battles, and Zang Ba should also know his bottom clearly, knowing that among the three generals under the pottery merchant, only Fan Xu's force was above him, and the rest of Hua Mulan and Xu Sheng were not his opponents.
Because of this, Zang Ba dared to be so rampant and blatantly released the challenge of the fighting generals.
If the potters did not dare to send generals to fight, it would be tantamount to showing weakness to Zang Ba, and before the battle, they would hurt their morale and increase the prestige of the enemy.
If he went to war, he could only send Mulan to fight, and then he would be defeated by Zang Ba, and the result would be the same.
Zang Ba's trick is really yin enough.
"Childe, this thief is so arrogant, let Mulan go out to fight to teach him a lesson." Mulan had a gun in her hand and asked for war indignantly.
The potter smiled, "This thief's force is not weak, how can I let my fiancΓ©e go into danger, I don't need Mulan to make a move in this battle, I have prepared a person for Zang Ba to clean him up." β
Hua Mulan's heart was hot, and she was moved by the pottery merchant's care for her, but she was suspicious, secretly thinking that Xu Sheng and Fan Xu were not in the army, and who else could go out of the city to fight Zang Ba except her.
When he was suspicious, the potter's eyes had turned to his side, and he raised his whip and pointed, "Go, it's time for you to put on a show, go and clean up Zang Ba's house for me." β
Mulan's figure was shocked, and her eyes couldn't help but look at the general, and when she saw the person's appearance clearly, she couldn't help but be shocked.
The person entrusted by the potter to fight with Zang Ba was not as she imagined, but an old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face like tree bark, who looked to be at least over sixty years old.
The potter actually sent an old man in his sixties to fight Zangba!?
"Childe, just an old pawn, how can he be Zangba's opponent?" Hua Mulan blurted out in surprise, looking at the potter's gaze, all stunned.
The soldiers on the left and right were all shocked and shocked, and they all looked at the potters in surprise, obviously puzzled that their lord would make such an unexpected move.
The old pawn was as rotten as a dead wood, as if a small wind blew and could blow him into the sky, such a bad old man, let alone Zang Ba, was afraid that any pawn in the army would pull him out and put him to the ground in minutes.
Is the lord crazy?
Including Mulan, almost all the soldiers had the same idea in their minds.
The potter didn't think so at all, he was still calm and confident, and there was even a smile on his young face, as if he ignored the doubts of all the soldiers.
"Ahem, the last general will go to war." The old soldier coughed a few times, and with a battle axe in his hand, he slowly set his horse out of battle.
He was old and weak, coughing lightly as he went, gasping a few times from time to time, and the heavy battle axe trembled slightly in his hand, as if he could not hold it and fall off his horse at any moment.
The soldiers in front of the battle made a way, and everyone watched, with a pair of surprised and blank eyes, watching this old soldier who was in his old age step out of the formation and slowly walked towards Zang Ba.
"The lord actually sent an old pawn to fight Zang Ba, and he couldn't be slaughtered with a knife."
"It's over, we're going to lose this battle."
"The lord used to be very wise, why is he suddenly confused."
β¦β¦
The soldiers of the Tao army talked a lot, and one by one they did not have half confidence in the veterans who went to war, and the originally high morale fell rapidly.
Between the two armies, the arrogant Zang Ba saw an old soldier in the Tao army come out of battle, he was stunned at first, and then laughed and said: "Tao Shang, are you no one in the army, it's okay to send that little slut from the previous time to fight, and even sent an old dog to fight, it's really funny." β
"Haha-" The Taishan Kou on the opposite side also followed Zang Ba, laughing loudly and ridiculing wantonly.
At this time, the old man reined in his horse, shook the battle axe in his hand, and sneered hoarsely: "Young man, don't be complacent too early, don't underestimate the old man, otherwise you will suffer a big loss." β
This old pawn even dared to speak sarcastically.
Zang Ba's laughter stopped suddenly, the big gun pointed at him, and shouted angrily: "Old dog, I don't kill the unknown people under the gun of Zang Ba, report your name!" β
