Chapter 491: Ambitious
"Oh, it's Jiang Bo who asked you to lead the team?" Just when Zhuge Liang and others were cleaning up the battlefield with Jiang Wei, Li Que and others came over under the leadership of the welcoming soldiers.
Li Que ignored Zhuge Liang and greeted Jiang Wei.
In Li Que's thinking, Jiang Wei is definitely playing the role of a nanny this time. He can kill Fu Ward with a few young people. He is worthy of being one of the kings recognized by Xiliang.
Jiang Wei glanced at Li Que without saying a word, immersed in the melancholy of being beaten again.
Camels riding in the desert are equivalent to the Royal Guards. It is unreasonable for their combat power to crush those with single talents. Even if the soldiers under Jiang Wei have a mixture of single and double talents, it is all the same to the Royal Guards, and it is all a massacre.
This once again shattered Jiang Wei's confidence, which had finally built up.
You have to know that these camel riders have been weakened in various ways, and as a result they are still at a disadvantage in the fight.
If Zhuge Liang's psychological warfare tactics had not been successful in the end and a large number of camel riders had not been forced to surrender, the outcome of this battle would have been hard to say.
"General Zhuge is leading the team this time!" Li Bai walked back to Li Que and the others' team and whispered. "General Zhuge is indeed a man of great talent. Brother Zhiran, be careful with your words!"
Li Que was stunned, but because of his conviction in Li Bai, he did not continue to talk nonsense. However, he still had doubts about Zhuge Liang's ability.
"Greetings, generals. Otherwise, we would not have won this battle so easily!" Zhuge Liang bowed to Li Que and others.
Although they gained more, without the opportunities created by the Xiliang Cavalry, they would never have been able to intercept and kill so many camel riders.
In addition, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry headquarters led by Gao Chong and others was also the reason why Zhuge Liang had some respect for them.
"Don't be polite. We are all doing this for the country. The fact that you can arrive shows that you are qualified to win this victory!" Li Que sounded arrogant, but he still had some respect for Zhuge Liang.
Li Que and his men were real warmongers, and they were very impressed with Zhuge Liang's ability to accurately kill Fu Ward. They felt more at ease knowing that such a person would at least not be a letdown as a teammate.
By this time, Zhang Ji had already realized that the only troops under Zhuge Liang's command were his own, while the rest were just rotten fish and shrimp.
Under such circumstances, he was able to kill and capture nearly 10,000 people with less casualties than a defeat. No matter how you look at it, Zhuge Liang was definitely an outstanding talent.
Li Que didn't know what to say to Zhuge Liang, and Jiang Wei ignored him, so the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Just as Li Que was looking around, he caught a glimpse of Lu Lingqi.
"Is this Red Hare?" Li Que was a little confused. He shouldn't have made a mistake about this thing. It was Lu Bu's exclusive mount, and its combat power was enough to beat his damn Red Hare to pieces.
"Yes, it's definitely Chi Tu. The look of contempt for me is exactly the same as before!" Zhang Ji's mouth twitched as well. Chi Tu couldn't help but look back when he was stared at by the two of them. After finding that they were the two who had formed an internal energy barrier, he snorted in disdain.
"Young General Zhuge, is that from Lu Bu's family?" Li Que couldn't help but ask. He had never seen Lu Lingqi, but he had heard that Lu Bu had a daughter. This was the first time he saw her.
"Yes, that's General Lu Lingqi, also one of the generals recognized by the court!" Zhuge Liang was worried that Li Que and others would have a conflict with Lu Lingqi, so he quickly introduced them.
It’s not that I’m worried that Li Que and others will bully Lu Lingqi, but I’m worried that Lu Lingqi will beat up Li Que and others, which would not be a good scene.
There was no way. Even if Lu Lingqi was a rookie, she had internal energy outside her body. She might not be as good as Li Que and the others in leading troops in battle, but in terms of personal strength, Lu Lingqi could easily beat Li Que and the others.
Li Que and others could still try to let the internal energy leave the body normally, but could Lu Lingqi's internal energy leave the body normally?
Lu Lingqi's temper was well known to her friends at the Imperial College. If she got really mad, they couldn't stop her.
"Report, General Zhuge, after counting, our army killed more than 2,000 people in this battle, captured more than 5,000 people, and our army lost more than 600 people."
Lu Lingqi came over to report that the losses on her side and Zhuge Liang's side combined made for a pretty good harvest.
Lu Lingqi couldn't help but have more respect for Zhuge Liang. The fastest way to establish prestige on the battlefield is to win battles. The more victories one wins, the higher the recognition of the commander by the soldiers.
Li Que and others were also dumbfounded . Zhuge Liang completed the counterattack with a weak force, and the battle losses were magnificent.
"It's a pity that the enemy general escaped, otherwise this battle can be considered a complete victory." Zhuge Liang shook his head, not very satisfied with the result he had handed in this time.
"Clean up the battlefield and collect the bodies. Burn the enemy's bodies on the spot. Record the names of our fallen soldiers and send them back to the Jingling Hall!" Zhuge Liang quickly calmed down and gave the order to clean up the battlefield.
"Jingling Hall?" Zhang Ji keenly grasped the key point of Zhuge Liang's words.
"General, don't you know? The resting place of the heroes founded by the general is enshrined with the Nine Cauldrons, the national treasure!" Zhuge Liang's brief words made Li Que and others feel honored.
"Being worshipped by the Nine Cauldrons?" Zhang Ji muttered to himself. Although he had heard of this idea, he did not expect it to be of such a high standard.
"Zhiran, should we also send back the list of names of the fallen soldiers? It would be good to find a home for our brothers!" Zhang Ji was a little touched. This kind of thing was of extraordinary significance.
"Of course!" Li Que was also a little depressed. Those dead soldiers were their real comrades-in-arms.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Que and the others took their leave, as they still had to go back to clean up the mess they had made along the way.
Along the way, they took away Hu Zhen and other Xiliang cavalrymen, leaving Gao Chong alone.
"Are they the generals of the Xiliang Army? Just one who breaks the boundary?" Lu Lingqi asked behind Zhuge Liang.
"Lingqi, don't underestimate them. They are the Xiliang Iron Cavalry who are as famous as the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry under Wenhou!" Zhuge Liang smiled and shook his head, correcting the contempt in Lu Lingqi's words.
"It's true..." Lu Lingqi originally wanted to refute, but when she thought of the prestige of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and Lu Bu's previous words, she nodded in agreement.
Not everyone can be despised by Lu Bu, and she knows that Feixiong is a military soul as famous as their Bingzhou Xianzhen, and she still recognizes this point.
"Hmph, I will surpass them sooner or later!" Lu Lingqi muttered unconvinced. At this moment, she actually had some of Lu Bu's spirit.
“I have ambition!”
Zhuge Liang praised that Lu Lingqi had good conditions, but if she wanted to surpass these warmongers, she could only be said to be ambitious.
People like Li Que are real lunatics who make a living from war. It is evident from the fact that they couldn't even subdue Lu Bu.
