Chapter 2643 Azure Dragon's Clever Move Blocks White Robe, Female Warrior Slays Two Generals
It must be said that Chen Qingzhi, the white-robed ghost general, possesses incredibly powerful skills, which can even be considered a replica of Han Xin's military genius skills.
However, it's just a replica of the other extreme.
Han Xin's skills can only be maximized when his side has an absolute advantage in troop strength over the enemy, thus achieving numerical crushing.
Chen Qingzhi, on the other hand, only unleashes his full potential when the enemy forces have an absolute advantage over his own.
When the White-Robed Ghost General is developed to its fullest potential, it can even bring Chen Qingzhi a six-point increase in leadership.
If this effect could be fully activated, coupled with his peak Heavenly level foundation, Chen Qingzhi's command at that time might even surpass many God-level commanders.
Moreover, it's not just about increasing the commander's strength; if this skill is pushed to its limit, it can also provide the entire army with a four-point increase in attack power, and even a valuable part of the army's immunity effect.
This is also one of the strongest skills currently available; very few skills can achieve such a powerful amplification effect.
Either the conditions for activation are as demanding as those for the White-Robed Ghost General, or there are side effects that prevent it from being easily unleashed.
However, if Chen Qingzhi really wants to develop this skill to its fullest potential, the pressure he will face will be beyond imagination.
Our forces numbered a pitiful less than 10,000, while the enemy forces outnumbered ours by more than 20 times.
The sheer difference in troop strength alone would be enough to drive an ordinary commander to despair, let alone the prospect of fighting and winning.
If this were a few generals with poor mental fortitude, the sheer disparity in troop strength alone would have been enough to make them flee, or even lead them to consider surrendering.
Fighting outnumbered might feel good in the short term, but it's a recipe for disaster in the long run. Let alone activating this skill at full power, even activating just a little bit more would likely be playing with Chen Qingzhi's own life.
Skilled warriors do not boast of glorious achievements. Even the most outstanding generals or commanders mostly prefer to overwhelm their opponents head-on with a righteous and honorable army, rather than engaging in extreme situations where the outnumbered are outnumbered and there is absolutely no room for error.
"Ding! Chen Qingzhi's White-Robed Ghost General skill effect has been activated. When commanding less than 10,000 troops, his Command +3, Intelligence +3, base Command 99, base Intelligence 95, current Command increased to 102, current Intelligence increased to 98."
"Ding! Chen Qingzhi's White-Robed Ghost General skill effect two has been activated. When commanding fewer than 10,000 troops, the entire army's attack power increases by 1, and the morale of the entire army is greatly enhanced..."
"set off!"
With Chen Qingzhi's loud shout, the white-robed army surged forward like a vast white cloud towards Xingbei Road.
…………
Chen Qingzhi truly lived up to his reputation as a renowned general during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. His White Robe Army moved like the wind, and within just a few days, Xue Rengui had already witnessed their formidable strength.
In just a few days, three cities fell to enemy cavalry raids.
Prefect Yuan An and Commandant Han Qiong had attempted to mobilize the city's defensive forces for street fighting, hoping to compensate for the disparity in troop strength and soldiers, while also holding their ground and awaiting reinforcements. However, Chen Qingzhi acted swiftly and decisively. Upon discovering that someone had begun organizing the city's defenses, he had no intention of engaging them further and left without hesitation.
On the contrary, in order to mobilize forces to fight against Chen Qingzhi, Prefect Yuan An and Commandant Han Qiong not only temporarily gathered a large number of able-bodied men, but also released all prisoners, regardless of their crimes, from the jail.
As a result, after their failed attack, it caused some chaos in the city. Chen Qingzhi seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and both men were killed by the White Robe Army.
Even their supply lines were constantly under Chen Qingzhi's threat; in fact, it could be said that Chen Qingzhi had already begun harassing their supply lines.
On that occasion, Deng Jiugong and his daughter happened to be accompanying the army to transport grain, and they were also on the troop transport vehicle carrying the grain.
Faced with Chen Qingzhi's sudden attack, Deng Jiugong and his daughter ordered the Han soldiers transporting grain to use troop transport vehicles as cover to defend against the enemy.
In particular, Deng Chanyu used a feigned defeat when she fought against General Ying Kao Shu on the battlefield. As the enemy pursued her, she suddenly and unexpectedly threw two Five-Colored Flying Stones, both of which hit Ying Kao Shu's eye sockets.
Suddenly, Ying Kao Shu's vision went black; he was in so much pain that he couldn't see anything.
On the other hand, Deng Chanyu seized the opportunity, immediately turned around, mounted her horse, and with one stroke, cut Ying Kao Shu down from his horse.
In shock, Ying Kao Shu's friend Xia Shu Ying drew his knife to avenge his good brother, but Deng Chan Yu used the same trick on him again.
However, this time Deng Chanyu's flying stones were not aimed at him, but at his warhorse. She still aimed for his eyes. The warhorse was so surprised that it threw Xia Shuying off the horse. Before he could get up, Deng Chanyu threw out a rope, caught him, and dragged him to his death in front of everyone.
"Ding! Deng Chanyu, with a base strength of 101, has killed Ying Kao Shu, whose base strength is 103, in a one-on-one duel. Her base strength has been permanently increased by 1, and her current base strength has been permanently increased to 102."
While Xia Shuying's abilities may be questionable in the Spring and Autumn Annals, Ying Kao Shu is definitely one of the most formidable generals.
He was a high-ranking official of the State of Zheng, known for his bravery and strength. When Duke Zhuang of Zheng was about to attack the State of Xu, he convened the army to select a vanguard officer. To become a vanguard officer, one had to be able to walk normally while holding a large flag that was 33 feet long.
Because the flagpole was very heavy, the soldiers knew their place and dared not step forward to raise the flag. However, the physician Xia Shuying, who was brave and strong, took the lead, pulled out the flagpole, took three steps forward and three steps back, and then put it back. The entire army cheered when they saw this.
Ying Kao Shu then stepped forward and pulled out the flagpole, but instead of walking around with it, he swung it left and right as if wielding a spear.
When it came time to attack the State of Xu, they found it difficult to capture the city. Ying Kao Shu saw this, tucked a large banner under his arm, and leaped with all his might onto the city wall. This was a meritorious act of being the first to scale the wall, but Gongsun Zidu, jealous of Ying Kao Shu, secretly shot and killed him with an arrow from behind.
The deaths of Ying Kao Shu and Xia Shu Ying had a limited impact on the morale of the White Robe Army, but greatly boosted the morale of the Han army.
Chen Qingzhi considered that the Han army was using troop transport vehicles as cover to form a defensive formation, which would be difficult to break through in a short time. Moreover, if the delay was too long, the surrounding Han army might be able to find their weaknesses. Therefore, he made the decision to retreat immediately.
Even so, Chen Qingzhi burned one-fifth of this batch of grain.
Chen Qingzhi's troops, through their sabotage in the rear, have truly impacted Xue Rengui, who is about to engage in a decisive battle.
