The God of the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 334 - The Man Behind the Gunpowder
Theoretically, it is possible to capture an entire army by capturing the commander-in-chief, but in reality, there are such soldiers that are built entirely around the commander-in-chief, such as Gao Shun's trapping battalion.
As long as you do it right, if you succeed in capturing Gao Shun, you'll be able to capture an entire trapped battalion!
In practice, however, the chances of such a move are minimal.
In practice, the core of the army is the commander-in-chief, who is often very protective of his commander-in-chief, and the commander-in-chief is often not incompetent.
So if you want to capture the commander-in-chief alive in the middle of such an army, it is not much harder than defeating him head-on.
But when you have the power to defeat them head-on, why do you need to do something that is completely unnecessary? Wouldn't it be better to crush them with a dignified and overbearing posture?
But reality is sometimes so magical that an operation that was almost impossible to accomplish in reality was successfully realized by Wu Qi and others!
It's no secret that Whiteface Guan Yu's strength is weak, so in previous wars, Whiteface Guan Yu's position would usually be in the extremely safe rear, after all, who made him lucky to have such a strong brother?
But luck runs out after all.
The white-masked Guan Yu and the fake Zhang Fei's lord successfully led his army through the Eight Trigrams Formation that enveloped the whole of Longzhong, and finally came to the second round, relying on a large number of generals to die in the first round.
Therefore, the white-faced Guan Yu had to accompany his second brother to the battlefield.
Fortunately, the second brother was still the same second brother who loved his big brother so much.
As soon as he entered the arena, his second brother, Fake Zhang Fei, forced his big brother to sit on the throne as commander-in-chief and left seventy percent of his soldiers with him in Midtown, and to prevent anyone from disobeying his big brother's command, Fake Zhang Fei also replaced all the ranking generals of the seventy thousand troops with the brothers' trusted advisors, so that even if someone did arrive here in his absence, it would be impossible for anyone to break through the city his cowardly big brother was stationed in!
Unfortunately, the fake Zhang Fei thought of everything but didn't think he would lose so easily and quickly, nor did he think that his cowardly elder brother had forgotten the basics of defending a city under his great protection.
Seventy thousand pawns is a lot to say, but it also looks like a lot, so much so that even one sword per man could cause a heavy loss to Wu Qi's city-stealing squad!
But when all the generals in an army are of one man's faction, when something happens at the top, the troops below become defenseless!
So when the two long swords were placed on the neck of the white-faced Guan Yu, the trusted generals surrounding them subconsciously threw away their weapons, and the pawns on the other side saw that even the generals had surrendered, so what could they do?
Wu Qi and the others held the white-faced Guan Yu above the city gates, while the sounds of swords and spears falling to the ground, a general kneeling on the ground, followed by countless soldiers dropping their weapons and surrendering were heard around them.
When Zhao Yun arrived at the bottom of the city with his troops, he was incredulous: "Is the surrender skill of the military counselor so powerful? Just one skill can take down a city, so it seems that I have a lot to learn."
Zhao Yun didn't know that although Wu Qi did succeed in unleashing his skills, they couldn't have achieved such magnificent results without the assistance of fake Zhang Fei and white-faced Guan Yu.
When they saw what kind of goods the defending general was, a group of people laughed uncontrollably, and the player, who could have been declared eliminated, was so ashamed that he didn't even have time to take back the 100,000 troops in the ring and flee from this humiliating event!
There were originally only ten players and ten cities in one arena, but the three who were at an absolute disadvantage and were forced to hold on to their positions suddenly transformed themselves into absolute rulers over the four cities!
Even for some strange reason they actually had an army of about 170,000 soldiers!
170,000 troops, damn, the entire ring in the most troops of the city is only 100,000 troops, this suddenly appeared such a huge thing, how do other people still fight?
The few players outside the ring all sighed, they have seen clearly, now in the ring in the city of God's hero is no longer their spicy martial arts chicken pawns can stop.
After all, everyone's pawns are the same hot chickens, but they can't withstand three foul-ranked generals on the other side! An army led by such a high commanding and intelligent general would have no chance of winning, even if they had high walls and thick walls!
While the players outside the ring were thinking about how many soldiers and generals they were going to lose this time, Wu Qi and the others in the ring suddenly received a message from outside the ring.
"Find a city and try to surround it, but remember, don't attack without my order!"
When Wu Qi heard the order, he just frowned, he did not say anything, and did not even think about how his lord had sent the letter to them and why he had given him such an order, he just simply analyzed the information that Qian Fu and Ji Ying had given him and then picked a city and surrounded it with troops.
"Lord Lin, what does this mean?"
The first time I saw him was when he was in the middle of the ring, so the people outside the ring actually heard him, but at that time they only found it funny, but when Wu Qi really took people to surround a city, the players outside were shocked, and then the lord of the city was unable to calmly speak.
The player's name was Shu Qi, and although his name had the exact same sound as the name of a certain actress, he was an actual male player.
Lin Xiaodie didn't answer Shu Qi's question first, he first took a glance at the few players across from him, they had a variety of expressions, from anger to helplessness, but most of all, confusion.
The first time I saw such a reaction, Lin Xiaodao nodded his head in satisfaction and said to Shu Qi with his mouth full of white teeth.
"I know someone has created gunpowder in the game, and I have seen their power in the game, so I want to ask you a question now, who is the person who created the gunpowder?"
