Do you want to kill Xu Chu?
Has Lin Mo gone mad?
No, that's not the case!
Since absorbing Tius's soul last time, Lin Mo's personal combat power has increased by more than one level.
Even Xu Chu, who was once invincible, can now be easily defeated by Lin Mo.
Therefore, under such a huge disadvantage, he suddenly had a brilliant idea.
Is it possible to devour all the generals created by the system, such as Xu Chu, Xiang Yu, Yao Guangxiao, and Qin Liangyu?
He believed that by absorbing the souls of these famous Chinese generals, his strength could leap forward to a level comparable to that of divine servants.
At that time, with my overwhelming strength, I will crush the enemy.
It was precisely because of this idea that Lin Mo brought Xu Chu to this secluded wilderness.
At this moment, Lin Mo's expression changed, and he pushed the Dragon Slayer sword forward a little more.
Xu Chu suddenly felt a cold touch on his face, which made him involuntarily startled.
Lin Mo's gaze shocked Xu Chu; his deep and unwavering eyes seemed to see right through him.
"My lord?" Xu Chu narrowed his eyes, his voice low and powerful, revealing an indescribable doubt and question. "What are you trying to do?"
Lin Mo's gaze fell on Xu Chu's familiar face, and an indescribable pang of sorrow welled up in his heart.
The floodgates of memory seemed to open, and fragments of the past swirled in Lin Mo's mind like dust in the wind.
It is this honest and kind face that has stepped forward countless times in times of danger, shielding him from fatal attacks.
It was this simpleton who, time and again, defeated powerful enemies on the battlefield for himself.
This simpleton has made outstanding contributions in countless battles, winning victory after victory for himself.
Lin Mo took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart.
He knew that Xu Chu was not only his subordinate, but also his brother forever.
This friendship is higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea.
"Do I really want to kill him to win the war?" Lin Mo thought to himself.
Perhaps I can.
I have a system that allows me to summon Xu Chu again.
but...
At this moment, Lin Mo's body was trembling uncontrollably.
No, I can't do it.
I, Lin Mo, am not a heartless and insane person; I absolutely could not do that!
At the last moment, Lin Mo stepped back and sheathed his sword.
"Hahahaha!" Xu Chu suddenly burst into hearty laughter. "My lord, your killing intent is just right!" he said. "As a general, as a man, one should have this fighting spirit."
But my lord, please don't point your sword at Old Xu's face next time.
As Xu Chu spoke, he touched his injured cheek.
Lin Mo felt a little guilty, so he forced a smile and joked, "What, you don't make a living off your looks."
"Hehe!" Xu Chu chuckled sheepishly. "My lord, I really thought you were going to kill me just now! Your expression just now was even more convincing than Cao Cao's!"
Lin Mo gave an awkward smile, unsure of how to respond.
At this moment, Xu Chu spoke up again, "My lord, have you sent anyone to scout the upper reaches of the Min River? A large army cannot fight without water! Now our army is in the lower reaches of the Min River. What should we do if the enemy poisons the water upstream?"
“We’ve already sent people to investigate!” Lin Mo said. “To be honest, Saladin is a true gentleman; he didn’t resort to such underhanded tactics against me!”
The Saladin created by the system is exactly the same as the Saladin in Earth's history.
This person is generous, honest, and upright, and is widely praised.
In Western historiography, Saladin is hailed as a "chivalrous monarch."
Western lords considered him a generous, kind, yet resolute ruler.
Saladin's adversary, William of Tyre, once said: "Saladin is wise, brave, and incredibly generous. That is why we far-sighted nobles fear (or some say worship) him."
According to information scouting back from the outposts, Saladin and Bob Wyn's allied forces have detected Lin Mo's arrival.
Therefore, Emperor Ameng of Qiuzi once proposed to control the Min River water source and use poison to force the Great Xia army to retreat without a fight.
However, this suggestion was rejected by Saladin and Bob Wyn.
Saladin acted out of gentlemanly conduct, while Bob Win likely acted out of confidence and a sense of honor.
The doctrine of the Knights Templar forbids them from resorting to such despicable means.
Of course, there is another possibility.
Saladin and Bob Wyn both wanted to annihilate Lin Mo's army in one fell swoop.
Instead of forcing them to retreat!
Gazing at the ever-flowing Min River, Lin Mo fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide. "Holy crap, can I play like this?"
"What's wrong, my lord? Have you come up with a good plan to defeat the enemy?"
"More or less!" Lin Mo said. "I just don't know if the conditions are right!"
Xu Chu looked completely bewildered. "My lord, could you be more specific?"
"I can't explain it!" Lin Mo said. "Hey Xu Chu, you go back to camp first. I'll stay here and have some peace and quiet!"
"That won't do," Xu Chu shook his head. "My lord, I need to protect you personally!"
Lin Mo smiled, a genuine smile. He walked up to Xu Chu and patted him on the shoulder. "My Fan Kuai, thank you for your unwavering loyalty," he said. "But now, I no longer need your protection!"
Xu Chu suddenly remembered the battle just now. "That's right, my lord, you were able to defeat me!" he said. "Then I'll take my leave."
Lin Mo nodded. "Go back and get a good night's sleep. A fierce battle is coming!"
Xu Chu mounted his horse and said, "Yes, sir!"
After Xu Chu walked away, Lin Mo quickly opened the system and browsed the points mall.
"Holy crap, it really exists!" Lin Mo shouted excitedly after seeing the item he wanted.
"System, how exactly is this drinking water sold?" he asked loudly.
[Exchange one point of faith for a 15-liter bottle of water!]
[Note: Wahaha is a trustworthy brand!]
"Wow!" Lin Mo was overjoyed. "So cheap?"
Moreover, it's an old brand, definitely a domestic product!
"So, can we get a discount if we buy in bulk?" Lin Mo asked again.
Buy 100 get 50 free!
"Hahaha!" Upon hearing this news, Lin Mo danced with joy like a child. "Damn it, the key to victory is this 'Baby Haha' bottled water!"
Saladin, right?
Bob Wynne, right?
Templar Knights, right?
So what?
You will eventually become stepping stones on my road to success.
You will all be defeated by me, Lin Mo, in the end.
You are all such elegant gentlemen.
Your knightly honor.
You're so arrogant, you think you're guaranteed to win!
Therefore, I, Lin Mo, would never resort to underhanded tactics like poisoning.
I will not kill my loyal subordinates to defeat you.
Water will be the key to my, Lin Mo's, comeback!
