Boom!
A bolt of lightning flashed, and the spear pierced through Yuan Shao's chest, taking away his last bit of life.
Yuan Shao knelt on the ground, coughing up black clots of blood.
"I regret not listening to Tian Feng and Ju Shou!"
After the last line, Yuan Shao fell.
The commander-in-chief, the governor of Ji Province, who was in charge of the affairs of Ji, Qing, You, and other provinces, Yuan Shao, the first duke of the late Han Dynasty, was dead!
Cao Xiong (Richard) got off his horse and cut off Yuan Shao's head. He was in a good mood and said with a smile, "The merit of killing Yuan Shao is enough to make me the first successor, right?"
Alberta, the head of the intelligence agency beside him, smiled and said, "Congratulations."
It should be noted that the conversation between the two was in English, but it would be automatically translated into the ancient Hua Xia and Three Kingdoms era language.
The rules of the Spirit Realm would try to help the Awakened so that they would not be suspected by the people of the Spirit Realm because of language, special effects, and so on.
Of course, if the natives of the Spirit Realm really saw through it, the rules of the Spirit Realm would not forcefully change their minds.
"What should we do with Yuan Shang?" Richard asked.
Alberta said, "Wait, there's one more." His lips moved, and he told Richard in a secret way.
Richard narrowed his eyes and suddenly threw the lightning spear at a corner of the col. Then, as if he was one with the spear, he instantly crossed a distance of hundreds of meters.
On the other side of the col, a group of defeated soldiers was running away, but Richard immediately locked onto one of them and threw the spear with all his strength.
Unexpectedly, the seemingly ordinary soldier suddenly jumped up and ran dozens of steps into the air, and then ran with the wind at an incredible speed! Richard's lightning spear had used up all the lightning energy, and it was not powerful enough. It only killed an unlucky soldier, but it could not catch up with the figure.
"Hey, if you run again, I'll let Yuan Shang go!"
Richard shouted loudly.
The figure ran even faster.
Richard snorted as he looked at the extremely fast and slender figure. His eyes revealed a trace of seriousness.
Alberta came to his side and said, "Is it the subordinate of that 'Yuan Xi'?"
Richard nodded and said, "I think so."
"This person is very strong. I'm afraid this speed is the limit of an awakened one, "Alberta said." Which powerful force does he belong to? "
"I'm not sure."
Richard frowned. "However, I don't intend to capture Yuan Shang alive. I want to give him a chance to escape. Do you understand my intentions?"
"You want to cause trouble for 'Yuan Xi' … But why did you tell this subordinate of 'Yuan Xi' that you're going to let Yuan Shang go? She will definitely try to assassinate Yuan Shang, "Alberta said.
Richard shook his head and said, "I want her to do it. As long as she doesn't do it well, the spies we've placed in Yuan Shao's camp will take action and cause her reputation to skyrocket! At that time, even if 'Yuan Xi' can sacrifice the pawn to protect the general, they will lose a powerful helper for no reason. "
"Alright, what the class monitor said makes sense." Alberta shrugged and said, "It's time to test our acting skills again. Don't worry, we are professionals when it comes to acting. "
…
Sizhou, Xinzheng.
Bai Xiaowen's 20,000-man army had passed through Yangdi and Changge cities consecutively, but they were blocked by the defending generals. These two generals were just ordinary leaders. How could they resist the elites of the Youzhou army and the winged cavalry?
It was purely a free gift. It was just delaying Bai Xiaowen for some time.
After entering Sizhou, Xinzheng was also considered a strong city. Although it was much weaker than Xu Du, Bai Xiaowen didn't want to waste time. He originally wanted to go around the city, but he didn't expect that the defending general of Xinzheng, Yan Hao, wouldn't let him go and led the defending army to block him.
With the previous experience, when two armies faced each other, they had to shout a few words.
"Yan Hao, the emperor's imperial carriage is here. How dare you block it?" Bai Xiaowen's line was very smooth.
Yan Hao said loudly, "Bandits kidnapped the emperor's officials. Their crimes are unforgivable. If I let you go, who will let me go? "
Bai Xiaowen patted his Wrath Claw and took two steps forward. "Since you all want to stop me, then let's fight!" As he spoke, the flying horse … no, flying wolf charged forward.
When Yan Hao saw the Wrath Claw's' divine steed ', he felt a little guilty. Furthermore, Bai Xiaowen had killed Zhang Jiao. With his reputation, he didn't dare to go against him. He immediately shouted, "You're just a kid. You're not worthy of me. Don't talk nonsense. Men, take down this bandit! "
Bai Xiaowen received a notification.
"Enemy general Yan Hao refuses to fight. Yan Hao's troops' morale -3. "
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes and smiled.
Fighting generals was a special feature of the Three Kingdoms. The side that initiated the battle would not have a change in morale. If the opponent agreed, there would be no change in morale either.
If the opponent rejected the battle, the morale would drop by a maximum of 5 points.
If the general lost, the morale would drop even more. The winning side's morale + 10, while the losing side's morale -10!
Morale sounded very vague, but in reality, it referred to the spirit of an army.
An army with high morale would increase its hit rate, movement speed, and other important combat indicators according to the morale value.
When morale reached a certain level, it would even form an army buff effect.
On the other hand, low morale would affect the combat ability of the soldiers. When morale fell to a certain level, it would also trigger a negative effect. If morale was too low, it would be easy for the army to collapse.
There were many factors that affected morale. Other than the commanding ability of the general and the quality of the soldiers, fighting generals, marching, rations, and so on were all important factors. Of course, the most important factor was the outcome of the battle.
If they won a battle, as long as it wasn't a pyrrhic victory, it would increase morale.
Casualties would lower morale. If they suffered a crushing defeat, it would greatly reduce morale … Of course, the degree of reduction was also related to the leadership ability of the general. Some generals were defeated but didn't panic. They were defeated in a good way. They kept on fighting despite repeated defeats.
Some of the information regarding morale was accumulated by Bai Xiaowen through the previous battles. The rest was the answer he obtained from the Spiritual Realm's laws.
Seeing that Yan Hao didn't dare to fight, Bai Xiaowen smiled and immediately gave the order to beat the drums.
The winged cavalry charged under the lead of the death knights! The twenty thousand Youzhou soldiers followed behind to pick up the scraps.
This kind of small-scale or even medium-scale battle was most suitable for Bai Xiaowen to display his deterrence.
The moment the two sides were about to clash, Bai Xiaowen activated his deterrence, turning the three thousand soldiers led by Yan Hao into clay statues.
After Bai Xiaowen killed Yan Hao, the Youzhou soldiers followed the winged cavalry and charged for a while.
When the mental force field was withdrawn, the formation of the Xinzheng soldiers was completely messed up and they were fleeing in all directions.
Bai Xiaowen didn't want to waste time chasing them down. He just wanted to defeat them. He ordered the Youzhou army to regroup and then used Mengde Shu's' Speed is a Crucial Asset in War 'to rush north.
If Bai Xiaowen wanted to take over the city, it would be as easy as flipping his hand. However, he didn't do so. Taking over Xinzheng was meaningless to the Youzhou soldiers who were eager to return home. It was also good that they could return to their own territory earlier.
