Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 2098 Wei Qing VS Tuoba Tao (Part 1)

Chapter 2096: Wei Qing VS Tuoba Tao (Part 1)

"There are only 400 people left in the 5,000 vanguard army now. Tian Yu, Tian Yu, why don't you die on the battlefield with Li Gan..."

In the camp, Hu Luguang grabbed Tian Yu's collar and roared at him. He was really angry this time.

Among the troops under Wei Qing's command, only Li Gan's 5,000 vanguard army was equipped with the most sophisticated new equipment, and these equipments were shamelessly requested by Hu Luguang from Bai Qi. Ben pointed at this elite army to shine, But he didn't expect to be beaten so quickly that the whole army was almost wiped out. Hu Luguang felt that his hard work had been a waste of time.

Seeing that Tian Yu was choked by Hu Luguang, Xue Dingshan and Li Ling hurriedly stepped forward to plead for mercy.

After listening to Xue Dingshan and Li Ling's explanations, Hu Luguang also knew that the defeat was not to blame Tian Yu, but to Li Gan, so he took a sip and let go of Tian Yu.

“Humph, this defeat is indeed Li Gan’s responsibility, but as the deputy vanguard, Tian Yu is also responsible for his poor supervision even if the big fault lies with Li Gan.”

With that said, Hu Luguang looked at the superior Wei Qing and asked: "General, Tian Yu's supervision of Li Gan was unfavorable, resulting in the nearly total destruction of the five thousand vanguard army. The general believes that he should be severely punished as a warning to others."

Hu Luguang had no personal enmity with Tian Yu. The reason why he asked for a heavy punishment was just to set an example and did not involve any other interests.

Wei Qing, who had kept his eyes closed, immediately opened his eyes after hearing Hu Luguang's words, but did not speak.

After a moment of silence, Wei Qing said: "The vanguard army was completely wiped out. The fault was not with Tian Yu, but with the general."

Hu Luguang's expression suddenly changed. He thought it was his aggressiveness that forced Wei Qing to take the initiative to take the blame for his subordinates, so he quickly said: "General, this is not what I mean."

Although Hu Luguang didn't have much contact with Wei Qing, he was deeply impressed by him through this period of communication. He didn't want to get grudges with Wei Qing because of this.

After hearing this, Tian Yu quickly knelt down and said resolutely: "General, one person is responsible for each person's work. The defeat in this battle is the fault of the general and has nothing to do with the general. The general is willing to accept any punishment."

Wei Qing said: "Okay Tian Yu, this battle will be defeated, and it has nothing to do with you. It is because I appointed the wrong person and overestimated Li Gan, which led to this defeat. Now that Li Gan is dead, I The general should bear the main responsibility.”

"But…"

"It's nothing, no matter how bad I, Wei Qing, am, I won't let my subordinates take the blame."

At this point, Wei Qing gave Tian Yu a warning look, telling him to shut up, and he continued: "I will take the initiative to write a letter to the lord to apologize, but until the lord punishes me, I will still be the commander-in-chief. , no one can disobey the general’s orders.”

 “This is natural.”

Hu Luguang said quickly that his intention was actually good, but he didn't expect that Wei Qing would react so violently while protecting his calf.

 Speaking of which, what is the relationship between Tian Yu and Wei Qing?

Hu Luguang glanced at Tian Yu suspiciously. He had the impression that Tian Yu and Wei Qing had nothing to do with each other. Why would Wei Qing rather take the blame than protect him?

Hu Luguang actually thought too much. The reason why Wei Qing defended Tian Yu was not only that Tian Yu was a junior he admired, but also because he really believed that the responsibility for the defeat lay with him using the wrong Li Gan instead. Tian Yu didn't see Li Gan being a good supervisor.

“General, what should we do next?” Li Ling asked.

Wei Qing glanced at Xue Dingshan, who looked slightly pale and looked embarrassed. After thinking for a moment, he said: "We have sent a Confucian general like Tuoba Tao who is both wise and brave, and a strong general like Guan Deli who can defeat ten thousand enemies. Tuoba Gui This is to use the second village to stop our army."

After saying that, Wei Qing asked Xue Dingshan: "Xue Sima, is that stickiness that has never appeared in the intelligence report really as strong as you said?"

Xue Dingshan smiled bitterly. He knew that not only Wei Qing, but others also thought that he had exaggerated Nian Deli's strength. After all, if Nian Deli was really that strong, how could Xue Dingshan take away his mount?

Xue Dingshan didn't know how to explain this, so he had to say truthfully: "General, I don't dare to lie. Guan Deli's strength is far greater than that of his subordinates. I only lasted fifteen rounds with all my strength. This time It’s really just a luck that I survived.”

Seeing Xue Dingshan's frustrated expression, Wei Qing knew that he was not lying, and at the same time, he secretly thought that it was bad. Xue Dingshan is among the generals. Although he is young, he is the strongest under Wei Qing. Even he can't stop Gu Deli for fifteen rounds. I'm afraid all the generals will still be no match if they join forces.

“Even Xue Sima is not a strong opponent. I’m afraid no one in our army can stop him.”

"This is not the worst news. The vanguard army was completely wiped out, and the Qing army's morale greatly increased. Once the previous decline has been reversed, our army's overwhelming momentum may be difficult to maintain."

"Pity…"

The generals discussed the situation one after another, but most of what they said was pessimistic, obviously affected by the defeat of the vanguard army.

 “That’s enough, everyone, shut up.”

Wei Qing said coldly, and the generals immediately did not dare to say anything, but Wei Qing said: "One person who is too clingy will not affect the overall situation. I have asked for support from the rear, and someone will come to deal with him when the time comes. The really difficult one is The opponent is actually Tuoba Tao, so I will personally command the army to attack the stronghold. "

Hearing this, Hu Luguang and other generals were all happy, and they all said in unison: "General, if you go out personally, you will definitely succeed."

Wei Qing's troops fought all the way, but no camp under Wei Qing's personal command could hold out for more than three days. This is why Hu Luguang was impressed by Wei Qing, so everyone was full of confidence in Wei Qing.

 After appeasing the defeated army that had fled back, Wei Qing ordered the army to move out that day without any rest, and continued to attack the second battalion, and arrived at the camp half a day later.

During the march of the Qin army, the Qing army neither ambushed nor attacked, nor set any traps to delay the march of the Qin army. This made all the Qin army generals very puzzled, except Wei Qing, who looked solemn. .

"This Tuoba Tao is really smart. He knew that the success of setting up an ambush before was only due to Li Gan's underestimation of the enemy. But now that the general has personally led the army, if he dares to repeat the same trick, not only will he not succeed, but he will also Being plotted by this general," Wei Qing explained.

“Then why didn’t Tuoba Tao leave any traps?” Xue Dingshan asked in confusion.

“It’s not that Tuoba Tao doesn’t want to stay, it’s just that he doesn’t have enough time to set a trap.”

Xue Dingshan suddenly showed a look of surprise. If the Qing army wanted to set a trap that could delay the Qin army, it would take at least half a day to prepare. However, the Qin army came back too fast this time. The Qing army probably had only just finished cleaning the battlefield. Soon, there was not enough time to set up a trap, so he simply returned to the camp and defended it.

“General, do you want to attack the city immediately?” Li Ling asked.

Wei Qing looked up at the camp, shook his head and said: "Wait for the equipment at the rear, otherwise this battle will be difficult to fight.

Although Tuoba Tao is not very old, it can be seen from this camp alone that his military skills have become one of the famous generals.

 Without enough equipment, it is absolutely impossible to defeat it with just a heart of blood. "

Li Ling nodded in agreement. He also saw the mystery hidden in this camp, and then asked: "General, after the equipment is delivered, what standard will be used for the intensity of our army's attack on the camp?"

Wei Qing thought for a moment and then replied: "No casualties are considered."
