Chapter 74: 73: The Commander in Chief

"more than!"

Gui Bi snapped his fingers fiercely: "The battlefield is now an information war, which emphasizes technological suppression and wealth suppression, and emphasizes firepower coverage. Basically, there is no war where the few can defeat the many.

From our perspective, we can say that outside the Five Permanent Members, everyone else is an ant.”

"But in ancient wars, there were countless battles where a smaller force defeated a larger one, such as the Battle of Julu, the Battle of Pengcheng, the Battle of Kunyang, the Battle of Taizhou, and so on."

Gui Bi paused, and after realizing that he had become the focus of everyone's attention, he cleared his throat and said the essence: "The Art of War."

"art of war?"

"art of war!"

When the players present heard Gui Bi say this, their expressions varied. Some players touched their chins and nodded repeatedly to agree with Gui Bi's statement, while some players scratched their heads, as if thinking about what military tactics to use to conquer the dungeon.

“Hey, think about it, everyone. We are now in Yancheng. Except for Su Mu who just escaped here, the other NPCs are all soldiers and military strategists.”

"Although the official announced a new profession, the Confucian Gongyang School, the most complete job transfer system is still the four schools of the military school."

“This is enough to explain so many problems!”

Gui Bi grinned and said his guess: "I guess the official is currently encouraging us to switch to military strategists. First, use military strategists to convert our thinking. When we are completely immersed in the game... No, we can't use the word 'play', we should use '."

Gui Bi paused, he didn't know what words to use to describe it: "Anyway, it's probably that we think we have really traveled to this world, not just playing a game.

Once we can switch to this kind of thinking, we can then switch to other schools of thought, and that will be "The Hundred Schools of Thought". "

"And now, as military strategists, the first thing that comes to our mind regarding the new dungeon is definitely the art of war!"

Gui Bi stood up and dusted off his buttocks: "Brothers, we are disciples of the four schools of military science. We must use the magical powers and tactics of the four schools of military science to defeat the enemy."

"Why do I feel that the military tactics you mentioned are not very useful? What if there is a character like Xiang Yu among the barbarians who directly ignores the military tactics, acts recklessly, and sweeps everything away? What should we do?"

A new player asked this question, and the other players present immediately looked at this player with contempt.

"Brother, do you understand what is meant by unique throughout the ages? If there is a character like Xiang Yu in a small copy, do you think Yancheng will still exist?"

The players laughed. After a brief discussion on the city wall, they came up with a preliminary strategy for the Iltsk Oasis dungeon.

"These players are so quick-witted!"

Next to the resurrection pool, Chu Zhongxing, who upgraded the Tongtian Divine Tree to level 4 and strengthened the soldier explosion once again, couldn't help but give a thumbs up to praise this group of players after peeping at the communication between the players.

If we attack Iltsk Oasis head-on, these players will just be giving away their heads, weapons and horses.

Only by attacking from other aspects will there be a chance to break through the Iltsk Oasis.

"If a disciple of a military strategist cannot use military tactics, can he still be called a disciple of a military strategist?"

"I'm asking you to change your profession to military strategists, but that doesn't mean you should just rush into anything. Even if you're a skilled military strategist, you're still a disciple of the military strategist first, and you're reading the Six Strategies!"

Soldiers who, deception also.

Chu Zhongxing thought for a while, then walked to the general's mansion and beckoned to Guo Xiaoding who was communicating with Su Mu.

"Lao Guo!"

"General Chu, is there anything I can do for you?"

After working with Chu Zhongxing for more than 20 days, Guo Xiaoding had some understanding of Chu Zhongxing. As soon as he saw Chu Zhongxing like this, he knew that Chu Zhongxing must have something to do.

"I want to lead my troops to conquer the Iltsk Oasis." "Well?"

"what?"

Guo Xiaoding looked at Chu Zhongxing with a slightly suspicious look, wondering why he was going to the Iltsk Oasis in person. Su Mu, who was reciting the Spring and Autumn Annals, was shocked: "General Chu, you can't do that. You absolutely can't go to the barbarians in person!"

"?"

A question mark slowly emerged on Chu Zhongxing's forehead. He didn't quite understand why Su Mu, an "outsider", would strongly prevent him from personally leading an expedition to the Iltsk Oasis.

Didn’t you see that Guo Xiaoding, the real commander of the Zhenbei Army, didn’t refuse?

"The commander-in-chief is the soul of Yancheng. If something goes wrong during his expedition to Iltsk Oasis, what will the other people in Yancheng do?"

Just yesterday, I swore an oath by the Luo River that I would lead the Zhenbei Army back to Di Shang to assist the emperor.

Why are you going to personally lead an expedition to Iltsk Oasis today?
You don’t have the magical power of [immortal soul and indestructible body], so why are you joining in on the fun!
Su Mu's only hope of returning to Di Shang lies in Chu Zhongxing, so he naturally doesn't want Chu Zhongxing to take risks.

"It doesn't matter, I'm just going through the motions!"

Seeing that Su Mu was still frowning, Chu Zhongxing had to explain briefly: "The soldiers under my command are a little bit stubborn. Although some of them have become military strategists, they only memorize the Six Strategies in their minds and cannot use them flexibly."

"I led the troops to conquer Iltsk Oasis to show them what a true military strategist is."

"I am personally going to the Iltsk Oasis this time. I am not seeking to capture the city or kill anyone. I just want to demonstrate the art of war to my soldiers."

Chu Zhongxing patted his chest and said, "It just so happens that I have gained some insights from reading the Six Secret Teachings these days, and I have mastered a new magical power. I will take this opportunity to try it out."

"Oh? Master Chu has mastered a new magical power?"

Guo Xiaoding glanced at Su Mu, stood up and solemnly assured Su Mu: "Angel, rest assured, with me, Guo, here, this expedition will not put General Chu in any danger!"

"Since General Guo has promised, it would be unreasonable for Su to dissuade him."

"I wish General Chu a successful start and a triumphant return!"

Seeing Su Mu bow, Chu Zhongxing returned the greeting slightly, then glanced at Guo Xiaoding and gave an order: "General Guo, dispatch fifty cavalry, fifty infantry, and one chariot to follow me to the Iltsk Oasis."

"Let the remaining soldiers close the city gates and defend Yancheng."

"promise!"

[Scouts reported that the Xianyun tribe in the Iltsk Oasis cut off the heads of the invading Yancheng soldiers and made them into urinals for use at night. They also hung the headless bodies of the Yancheng soldiers upside down at the city gates as a deterrent.

The soldiers suffered such a great humiliation while fighting in the Iltsk Oasis, which really damaged the reputation of the Zhenbei Army.

When Commander Chu learned about this, he was furious. He decided to lead his army to attack Iltsk Oasis in person and let all the soldiers watch the battle!
All soldiers, please assemble at the Yancheng Martial Arts Arena immediately. No one will be waited for later. 】

The players on the city wall had not yet finished their discussion when a system message appeared in front of everyone.

The fifteen players present all looked at each other when they saw this message.

A few seconds later, players jumped down from the city wall one by one and headed straight for the martial arts arena.

"Fuck, the commander-in-chief is personally leading the expedition. Is this triggering some plot?"

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, you stupid barbarian, you actually used my head as a urinal, fuck him!"

"The teaching is coming, the teaching is coming, brothers, hurry up and gather at the martial arts arena!"
