Chapter 159 Luo Zai Dissatisfied
A breeze blew across the sky, rolling up a few white clouds. Luo Zai stood in the camp, looking at the rows of soldiers ready to go.
Faintly, there seemed to be a smell of blood in the wind, and the shouts of countless people also reached his ears.
Some time ago, a letter came from Zhaocheng saying that King Yu's Nine Cauldrons had been shaking.
In the ancestral temple where King Yu's Nine Cauldrons were placed, all the flowers, plants and trees withered overnight.
When one leaf falls, we know autumn is coming.
But such strange things happening during the heyday is definitely not a good sign.
Luo Zai looked up at the sky with an unyielding look on his face.
The descendants of the Luo family have never been puppets in Ji Zhao's hands, nor have they ever been tools created by Ji Zhao in order to prolong his life for three thousand years and eventually become a god.
They have joys and sorrows, anger and happiness, their own thoughts, their personalities are different, and they are actually all mortals, not omniscient and omnipotent.
Some family heads want to successfully escape the shackles of Bang Zhou's destiny, even if it is by an inappropriate method.
Some family heads hesitated, not wanting the Luo people to suffer too many casualties, but they didn't know how to do it, so they could only avoid fighting.
Most of the Luo family heads have many concerns, and the ancestor has been in a deep sleep, so they really don’t know what is the best way to do it.
Until Luo Zai was born, he didn't think too much about it. The Luo people would never surrender so easily, so it would be better to fight and die heroically.
This is Luo Zai, who possesses an indomitable and indestructible will. This firm will is his strongest talent.
As for the shackles of destiny, even if he couldn't break free, Luo Zai would splash his own blood on them.
No one except King Su can change his beliefs.
Of course he understood the current situation. It would be best for the Luo family to stay in Zhaocheng and watch Bang Zhou perish step by step. Then the royal family of Luo would perish, leaving one or two people to escape with the women and children.
This makes sense and is the best arrangement.
But Luo Zai didn't want to do this. The Luo family was born different. The Su King was like a god in the sky. He had been in charge of the destiny of the Zhou Dynasty for a thousand years, and would continue to shine in the next tens of millions of years.
Is Luo's exit so dull?
Praying to God in a cowardly way, Luo accepted his fate.
Even a wild beast will struggle before dying. Luo Shi cannot be worse than a wild beast and just accept his fate so calmly.
What made Luo Zai feel lucky was that his father Luo Hong supported his reckless behavior and set about cleaning up the mess for him.
Of course, Luo Zai didn't know that because of his actions, the Luo family's foundation became deeper, and a unique earth-level item fell into Ji Zhao's hands.
You can only hold one item above the Xuan level at a time. If you want to get another one, you have to use it up. However, items marked as unique will never appear again.
…
Luo Zai's orders spread from the camp to all directions. By now, Luo Zai had understood that this was an asymmetric war.
Although Bai Qi was close to mastering military strategy, the man he faced was Luo Zai, a top general in terms of military situation and a master of the yin and yang of the army.
Luo Zai also has the world's elite troops such as the Luo State Brave Warriors and the Luo State Sharp Warriors.
Coupled with a think tank that is comparable to Bai Qi's military strategy, this almost eliminates Bai Qi's strongest point.
The only thing Bai Qi could do was to defeat Luo Zai on the front battlefield with a command that was superior to Luo Zai's.
But with Luo Zai's command attribute of over ninety, he had no problem commanding an army of one hundred thousand.
As a fierce general who charged into the enemy line, the number of troops directly commanded by Luo Zai would not even exceed 30,000, and his number was completely exceeded.
“The master of military strategy is invincible.
But Bai Qi was more inclined towards military strategy and scheming, which was not the true path. He was more like a counselor who could lead large troops in battle.
A person who is truly proficient in military strategy should be able to perfectly command an army of hundreds of thousands.
On the front battlefield, he can defeat all opponents as easily as if he were his own arm.
Facing an invincible commander of the army, the commander of the army can't find any flaws at all, let alone win the battle."
The premise is that he is a pure military situationist. Facing a military yin and yang person like Luo who can easily cause wind and snow, all four forces of the military are empty.
Bai Qi was already an extremely perfect field commander at the god-of-war level, but just that tiny flaw caused him to have a fatal flaw.
…
Qin army camp.
Bai Qi sat motionless in front of the geomancy map. In the camp, sat the high-ranking generals of the entire Qin State. No matter they were the princes of Qin State or the old nobles and aristocratic families of Qin State, they all looked up at the man in front of them.
He defeated Han and Wei, thwarted Zhao's plan to seize cities, captured Chu's capital Ying, and was invincible in every battle. He was a general who made great contributions to Qin's expansion and prosperity.
Gongzi Ti showed a hint of satisfaction on his face, "General, is Prince Luo seeking a decisive battle with our army?
He must have heard about what happened in Chu State, so he hopes to defeat our army before Chu State withdraws its troops."
Although the unrest in Chu was instigated by Qin, even Qin did not expect it to go so smoothly. The conflicts between the nobles in Chu were too great.
Bai Qi pondered. He still believed in Qin's means of sowing discord. After all, they had used it many times over the years. "Sir, I wonder how chaotic the Chu State is?"
Gongzi Ti laughed happily and said, “The three major royal families of the Chu State have been involved.
Most of the nobles in the entire Chu State who could speak to the King of Chu were caught up in the struggle.
In my opinion, the three major clans of Qu Jingzhao will even recall the army to Chu to suppress the nobles who support the reform. "
Bai Qi felt that he seemed to understand something, but when he thought about it carefully, he was confused again.
No matter how hard he tried to think, he could not imagine that the army he had swallowed was deliberately disposed of by Luo Zai through him.
Bai Qi stood up and walked to the feng shui map, saying loudly: “It seems that it is time for a decisive battle. As long as the Chu army shows a flaw, it will retreat directly.
Our army's right side can quickly defeat the coalition's left wing, then go around the foot of the mountain and station ourselves.
This is the largest food route for the coalition forces. As long as they hold on here, they will have to divide their forces and break out to other exits.
Although Luoyi is well connected, there are only so many passes and gates that can allow a large army to pass through.
Our army can use its superior forces to stop the coalition forces that have to split up."
Bai Qi kept drawing on the geomancy map.
Gongzi Ti nodded first, then asked with some doubt: "General, isn't the prince going to send a large army to surround and kill him?"
Bai Qi shook his head and said solemnly: "There are too many gaps around Luoyi, it is not a truly closed terrain.
The trapped army wants to break out, but it is difficult for the besieging party to defend them all, so it is not suitable for an annihilation war.
We can only force the other side to divide their forces and then nibble away at them.
The most taboo thing about the cannibalization strategy is to fight a small-scale battle with an unparalleled brave general like Prince Zai. Not only will you fail to achieve your goal, but you will also be cannibalized."
Whether it is political struggle or secret weapons, the simpler it is, the more useful it is. Overly complicated plans are basically the opposite.
Bai Qi and Luo Zai arranged a series of plans, but the core points all revolved around the Chu army. Whoever could achieve their goals against the Chu army would have a huge advantage.
Bai Qi personally led the army to block Luo Zai at the front. Both sides were dividing their troops, but there was a strategy for dividing their troops. If there were too few troops, they would be easily eaten away, and if there were too many troops, the front battlefield would be difficult. If the front battlefield was completely defeated, then everything would be over.
Luo Zai did not attack directly this time, but conserved his strength and stayed in the central army. The central army he led accounted for almost 60% of the elite soldiers, all of whom were brave men who could wear heavy armor.
The sunlight from the sky could not penetrate the dark clouds on the battlefield, nor could it dispel the coldness and darkness in everyone's heart.
"Drum roll, cheer, three drums, attack!"
As the dense drumbeats pierced the tense atmosphere on the battlefield, the front army attacked, and according to the rules of training, they fired dense rain of arrows at each other.
The Qin State has the help of Qin Mo, and is very strong in terms of military equipment. Although it is not as sharp as Korean weapons, the difference is not much.
The key is that there are so many of them, and those crossbow arrows are thrown over as if they are free.
After many days, a brutal war broke out again, and both Bai Qi and Luo Zai had elite troops in their hands.
Bai Qi waved his flag, and the Qin army launched attacks from all directions.
Under Bai Qi's command, the Qin troops cooperated with each other very well.
Whether it was the connection during the attack or the smoothness during the rotation, it fully demonstrated Bai Qi's control over the Qin army.
This is the demeanor that a commander of a large army should have. Although command and dispatch skills can be learned, talent is the most important.
As both were born as relatives of the emperor, Wei Qing could easily command tens of thousands of combat soldiers and countless auxiliary troops, while Li Guangli, who had been the commander-in-chief of the Han army for twenty years, was still a mediocre general.
Luo Zai kept a close eye on the situation on the battlefield, and Bai Qi continued to put pressure on the coalition forces through his superb command level.
Luo Zai was not as good as Bai Qi in command and dispatch, and he was also commanding the coalition forces, so the scene was naturally a bit chaotic.
"Qiaocheng, take a team of sharp soldiers and attack the left wing. The South Korean army is too weak. Go and help them."
The coalition forces gradually retreated, and the Qin army gained the upper hand, but Bai Qi did not show any joy, "Prince Zai has not yet attacked, what is he waiting for?
Does he have reinforcements?
Zhao?"
The only reinforcement Bai Qi could think of was Zhao.
The distance between Qi and Yan was too far, so it was impossible for them to complete the military assembly and enter the battlefield in such a short period of time without leaking any news.
Gongzi Ti shook his head and said, “It’s impossible for Zhao. Qin occupies the high ground to the west of Zhao. This key territory overlooks Zhao to the south.
There is no news at the moment, which means Zhao has not mobilized its troops."
Bai Qi was not relieved. On the contrary, the gloom in his heart became even heavier. He now concluded that Prince Zai must be waiting for reinforcements.
Then, it delivered a fatal blow like a sharp blade.
"Where exactly is it?"
Thoughts kept running through Bai Qi's mind, but he had no clue.
But he soon didn't have to think about it because the truth was revealed.
Luo is just more wise, not a philosopher king.
