Bai Qi (also known as Gongsun Qi), Lord Wu'an of Qin
Command: 115, Strength: 101, Intelligence: 95, Politics: 49, Charisma: 74
Personality: 1. Butcher (Highly rare personality. For every 100,000 people slaughtered, the overall abilities of the user's troops and the morale of the enemy are reduced by 1%, up to a maximum of 50%)
2. Morale 3. Dedication 4. Drill 5. Rapid advance 6. Guerrilla warfare 7. Military strategy 8. Insight
9. Breaking Army (Immune to enemy defensive tactics and defensive traits; morale decline is unaffected by the enemy)
"Young master, you flatter me. If you wish, I would gladly slay any villain in the world for you!"
Zhao Hao nodded slightly. After summoning Bai Qi, he used the last of his accumulated luck points to customize Bai Qi with exclusive martial arts skills, techniques, and equipment.
That's all for what he just said!
"General, the world has changed. There are probably more than just tens of thousands of people in this world! As your first battle after leaving the mountains, let us entrust this campaign against Tanhan Mountain to you to command the three armies and show your prowess!"
Snap!
After saying this, Zhao Hao tossed the Longquan sword that Wang Meng had handed over to Bai Qi.
Wang Meng already had his own sword, and in recent days he had proven his abilities and made many great contributions, so he no longer needed to prove his abilities and loyalty to Zhao Hao.
On the contrary, the many people from the pre-Qin period that Zhao Hao brought together need a respectable achievement!
"Young master, besides the Meng family's generals, who else can I command...?"
"I said it, that's all! Everyone except me is at your command!"
It wasn't that Zhao Hao was unwilling to obey Bai Qi's orders; if he were to participate, Bai Qi's credit would be diminished.
"In that case, I thank you, young master. Please wait in the camp with General Yuwen Chengdu and three thousand personal guards. I will be right back!"
Zhao Hao simply nodded and said no more.
Between men, there is the bond between ruler and subject.
A few words are enough!
"Young master... I also want to go into battle and fight the enemy."
Yuwen Chengdu is itching to go; he's been waiting for this opportunity to go on an expedition for a long time.
"What, you just like beating up the old, weak, sick, and disabled?"
"Uh...no, surely there isn't a single one in the entire Tanhan Mountain who can fight?"
Zhao Hao smiled helplessly. Others could say that without any problem, but Yuwen Chengdu was overestimating the Xianbei tribe at this time.
"Don't worry, I'll find you a few people to practice with soon. But in the northern desert, I'm afraid only General Meng Tian and General Bai Qi are worthy of your training."
Not to mention these Xianbei people who break through to martial arts levels solely through cultivating their qi and blood; they don't even have martial arts skills, so what do they have to fight you with?"
Yuwen Chengdu scratched his head awkwardly and laughed. Only then did he remember that he had a famous teacher to guide him, and Zhao Hao had helped him complete his cultivation technique and bestowed upon him divine weapons, armor and a fine horse.
In the entire desert, it would be difficult to find even one person who could withstand a single move from Yuwen Chengdu.
"Report!"
"Reporting, General! Gongsun Zan, a general under Liu Youzhou, has led cavalry to reinforce us and requests an audience with you!"
Zhao Hao was taken aback. Did Gongsun Zan arrive so quickly?
It was originally thought that Gongsun Zan would only start to consider whether or not to come after reaching Tanhan Mountain.
It seems that Zhao Hao's two previous battles have made his reputation far exceed his expectations.
"Gongsun Zan, the valiant colonel of Youzhou, has arrived with his 5,000 elite cavalry to pay homage to Zhao Zhenbei!"
Gongsun Zan, courtesy name Bogui, was 34 years old.
Command: 88 Martial: 92 Intelligence: 67 Politics: 63 Charisma: 77
Personality traits: 1. Prestige 2. Recruitment 3. Training 4. Sweeping 5. Hero 6. Prestige 7. Morale 8. Roughness
A unique character panel with one gold, six blue, and one red panel is already a rare find among the heroes of the late Han Dynasty.
Gongsun Zan's reputation for intimidating the Xianbei was earned through sheer force of battle. Had he not later killed Liu Yu, which tarnished his own reputation and caused his relationship with the gentry and Han imperial relatives to plummet, the outcome of his struggle for supremacy with Yuan Shao would have been uncertain.
Currently, Liu Yu still maintains control over Gongsun Zan. Before their relationship sours, could he perhaps reverse the course of history?
"Hehe, General Gongsun is a few years older than me, there's no need for that. General Gongsun, this is my veteran general, General Bai. General Gongsun, please follow his orders. If you can achieve great merit at Tanhan Mountain this time, I will personally write the battle report for you to claim credit!"
Gongsun Zan readily agreed, showing no trace of his former unruly demeanor.
This is reasonable. Gongsun Zan fought against foreign tribes for many years, while Zhao Hao was able to fight against more than 200,000 barbarians without being at a disadvantage, and he is still an idol of many border soldiers.
This admiration would naturally transfer to the officers under Zhao Hao's command. Therefore, although Gongsun Zan regretted not being able to have a few more words with Zhao Hao at this time, the fact that he was given the opportunity to make contributions as soon as they met was already a great appreciation.
Upon receiving Zhao Hao's order, Gongsun Zan hurriedly followed Bai Qi, who had not yet left, to the military camp to prepare for the deployment of troops.
That night, Zhao Hao's entire army rose up, crossed Juyong Pass, and launched a surprise attack on Tanhan Mountain.
In less than five days, the entire force of Tanhanshan was wiped out, and the survivors fled to the tribes in the northeast.
In just one battle, Bai Qi's army besieged Danhan Mountain, and a great fire burned to death no less than 200,000 herders!
The remaining Xianbei warriors who died in battle numbered over 40,000, and the number of those captured was countless, roughly estimated at 400,000!
Just as Gongsun Zan received news that Zhao Hao intended to massacre prisoners, and thought that Zhao Hao was trying to kill innocent people to claim credit, Zhao Hao said something that left him with no room for objection.
"This act is a crime in the present, but a merit for future generations! Brother Bogui, truth and dignity can only be won with the sword!"
