Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 241 Brutal Barbarians
Zhuge Liang retreated and refused to fight, but the barbarians became more and more confident.

That day, King Mulu went to Meng Huo and said, "Those Han people are cowardly. If we send a large army to attack them, I'm afraid Zhuge Liang will never dare to fight. It's better to let me kill them first and win for a while."

Meng Huo naturally agreed readily.

So the next day, King Mulu led the soldiers of his cave and the wild beasts out to attack the enemy alone.

When Zhuge Liang heard the news, he decided not to retreat.

But he ordered Zhao Yun and Liao Hua to lead the troops to fight.

Xing Daorong naturally subconsciously wanted to use fire attack, but was directly persuaded by Zhuge Liang.

But he said: "Zi Yu...when you are going to go to war, you must win the battle in one go and defeat the barbarians."

"Now, to test the military strength, you naturally cannot go on the expedition."

Having said this, he gave a few words to Zhao Yun and the other two, and sent them off to fight.

Zhao Yun and Liao Hua then deployed their generals and horses into battle array and marched out to meet the enemy.

The two generals stood side by side in front of the formation and saw that the barbarians' flags and weapons were all different and did not look like soldiers who had received regular training.

Many of the people were not wearing any clothes or armor, they were all naked and had ugly faces.

He carries four sharp knives. In the army, there are no drums or horns, but the use of sifting gold as a signal.

King Mulu came out from under a big flag, with two precious swords hanging from his waist and a bell in his hand and riding a white elephant.

When Zhao Yun saw this, he said to Liao Hua, "We have been on the battlefield all our lives, but we have never seen such a man."

Liao Hua nodded slightly and responded: "If the military advisor hadn't warned me earlier, I would have been scared by this weirdo."

Zhao Yun said: "Let's see what he can do..."

As the two were pondering, they saw King Mulu muttering some barbaric language and shaking a bell in his hand.

Suddenly, a horn sounded, and the soldiers under his command rushed forward with a roar.

These unarmored barbarians were not to be taken seriously, but the roars of various ferocious beasts in the crowd were frightening.

Zhao Yun looked up and saw tigers, leopards, jackals, poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts rushing towards him with bared fangs and claws.

Zhao Yun had never heard of or seen such a military force before, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a moment, let alone the Shu soldiers under his command.
Not knowing how to respond, I retreated.

The barbarian soldiers chased and killed King Mulu all the way for ten miles, and finally arrived in front of Zhuge Liang's camp, where they shot him with bows and crossbows, forcing King Mulu to retreat.

King Mulu was naturally very proud after returning victoriously.

Seeing Meng Huo coming to greet him, he just laughed and said, "Zhuge Liang is just so-so. If he hadn't been shot by the crossbows in their camp, I would have rushed into the camp and taken that military advisor here!"

Meng Huo had received the good news earlier and was very happy at this moment.

How can I not be happy!
This was Meng Huo's first victory since Zhuge Liang invaded Nanzhong.

He repeatedly praised King Mulu's ability to control beasts.

King Wugo, who was standing nearby, saw King Mulu's victory and felt unwilling to be outdone.

But he said: "As for bows and crossbows, my rattan armor soldiers are not afraid of them at all. Next time you go to the battle, call me!"

Meng Huo was overjoyed when he heard this, and he invited Wutugu to go out into the battle.

...

The next morning, in the midst of smoke, King Wugo led a group of soldiers in rattan armor and rushed directly to Zhuge Liang's camp.

Zhuge Liang sent Zhou Tai and Bao Long to fight the enemy.

The two sides were confronting each other in a hazy battlefield, but Wu Tu Gu was so tall that he was extremely conspicuous even in the smoke.

With a loud roar of gongs and drums, Wutugu ordered the soldiers in rattan armor to charge!

The rattan armor soldiers were wearing unique rattan armor, which looked like the tangled roots of an ancient tree wrapped around their bodies, appearing both bulky and exuding a wild power, sweeping over them.

Seeing this, Zhou Tai immediately ordered his men to shoot arrows. However, the arrows could not penetrate the rattan armor and fell to the ground!

Zhou Tai was shocked when he saw the rattan armor soldiers holding spears, with the tips of the spears flashing coldly in the mist, and they were already approaching him.

Zhou Tai rode his horse to kill them, but he chopped the leading soldier in rattan armor with his sword, only making a crisp "clang" sound.

This rattan armor soldier
It turned out that even if they were chopped by knives or stabbed by guns, they couldn't penetrate

The soldiers under his command even discovered something abnormal happening on the other side.

Ordinary armor can certainly protect soldiers, but I have never seen anything like the rattan armor that covers the entire body of the soldiers, leaving no flaws at all and not even able to react at all when hit by swords or spears!
In this way, won't it mean that I can never hurt the other person and can only be beaten?
How can we continue fighting if the war turns out to be like this?

Although Zhou Tai managed the army fairly well under the leadership of Xing Daorong, the morale of the Shu army collapsed in the face of such a "monster".

Zhou Tai had no way to fight back and could only retreat with his soldiers.

Fortunately, Bao Long came to support them from behind, and the two of them joined together and just kept running.

Fortunately, the rattan armor soldiers’ pursuit ability was really poor, and the Shu soldiers retreated too quickly, so Wutugu couldn’t catch up.

It would be helpful if we had King Mulu’s “Beast Army” at this time. The beasts are extremely fast and are very good at chasing and killing.

But at the moment, he was helpless and could only watch these Shu soldiers flee.

Zhuge Liang retreated another ten miles, and Wutugu also returned with a great victory. Meng Huo felt that the Shu army had no way out.

A grand celebration banquet was held that day to entertain King Mulu and Wutugu.

Of course.
Meng Huo also prepared the food for Wutugu's banquet on his own.

Although it was a bit fishy, ​​he endured it for the sake of victory in the war.

After three rounds of drinking, Meng Huo also greeted the two and said, "Now Zhuge Liang has retreated a hundred miles, but he is unwilling to retreat. It seems that he still wants to fight."

"We have to find a way to completely destroy their army."

After these words came out, King Mulu and Wutugu seemed to have been prepared. One of them said, "Barbarian King, we have already thought about this matter."

"The king's vine armor soldiers are invulnerable to swords and spears and can face the enemy head-on."

"And I am good at riding beasts and running, and I can chase and kill the enemy."

"With the Barbarian King's troops, we can surely defeat the enemy!"

Meng Huo nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and looked at Wutugu beside him, who was showing a cruel smile, knowing that he had the same intention.

He immediately stood up and shouted, "Alright! Next time we go out to fight, we will march together and kill him without leaving a single piece of armor. Let the corpses be scattered all over the ground, and make Liu Bei never dare to invade our territory again!"

Meng Huo was led by Zhuge Liang to prepare to gather troops and go on the expedition together, and Zhuge Liang was naturally also actively preparing.

However, Xing Daorong, the one who proposed the tactics, did not join the prepared army at this moment. He was currently attacking the enemy's mind.

As for whose heart you want to attack.
Naturally, the witness to his later title of "God of Fire" was Meng Huo's wife, Zhurong.

At this moment in their camp, Xing Daorong was sitting in front of the main desk, with Ma Yunlu sitting on his left and Zhu Rong sitting on his right, and they were talking about the previous two defeats.

"Hey"

"Since there are so many talented people in Nanzhong, why don't you join the lord earlier and contribute to supporting the Han Dynasty, which will also benefit the people in the future."

Hearing Xing Daorong's sigh, Zhu Rong cursed inwardly, thinking that this guy was mentally ill.

Why are they, the barbarians, supporting the Han Dynasty?
He just sneered disdainfully: "I heard that you lost two battles in a row, and I still want to join you? You are overestimating your own abilities!"

Xing Daorong was not moved by Zhu Rong's attitude.

But it has been said since ancient times: "Now, the only way is for the God of Fire to be reborn and burn all of your people to ashes with a big fire!"
