From refugee NPC to mythical general

Chapter 124 Both Sides Are Worried
This time, Zhuge Liang had a clear goal, which was to kill Ma Zhong.

After Ma Zhong was killed, Zhuge Liang's experience points increased by 1500, 1500/25000, and his skill points increased by 150, bringing his total skill points to 919. However, Zhuge Liang had no time to care about his experience points and skill points, and hurriedly returned to Dameng Town with Yu Jin and Gongsun Zan.

Zhang San's body has been buried. Wang Da and eight other NPCs looked very sad. They were the same group that joined the Dameng Dynasty together with Zhuge Liang. At that time, Dameng Town was just a village with only one lord.

After a long period of land reclamation, hunting, and planting, the ten NPCs have watched Dameng Town grow little by little to its current strength, with both its population and generals increasing tremendously.

Just as the Dameng Dynasty was about to be established and the entire Central Plains was about to fall into the hands of the Dameng Dynasty, Zhang San died.

Zhuge Liang was in a heavy mood, but he still came to the meeting room and summoned Ning Mengya and others.

Yu Jin and Gongsun Zan first summarized this battle to everyone.

Yu Jin said, "In this battle, more than 300 enemy soldiers were killed. The general killed the enemy general Ma Zhong... the general who killed Zhang San."

"However, the enemy's commander was extremely powerful and fled back to the north bank of the Yellow River with the remaining troops."

Zhang Zhao, Chen Qun and Guo Tu looked at Yu Jin in confusion. His martial arts ability was extremely high. How high was it? Was he even more powerful than General Zhuge?
Zhuge Liang spoke with a serious expression, "He should be a fifth-rate general."

hiss!
At this moment, the whole hall was filled with the sound of people sucking in their breaths. Guo Tu hurriedly asked, "But is it the other side's commander?"

Not only Guo Tu was concerned about this issue, but everyone else was also paying attention. If this fifth-rate general was the opponent's supreme commander, there would not be any need to worry too much, after all, Zhuge Liang had also reached the sixth-rate level.

Of course, this is not something to be too worried about, it is just an optimistic idea. In fact, even if the opponent's supreme commander is a fifth-rate general, it is still a thorny problem for Daming Town.

But if this fifth-rate general is not the opponent's supreme commander, then it will be troublesome. If the opponent has a general stronger than the fifth-rate general, Daming Town will have no chance at all.

Whether it is the command ability or the ability to command troops, the fourth-rate generals are beyond their reach. The military tactics and command ability of a fourth-rate general can almost kill anyone in Daming Town in seconds. In any major battlefield, Daming Town will not get any advantage.

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "Not sure."

This time they are just here to test our strength, but after this battle, I think the other side will not act rashly for a long time.

Zhang Zhao suddenly said, "General, the warships have been built. Twenty warships have been built."

Zhuge Liang looked at Zhang Zhao suspiciously.

Zhang Zhao smiled and said, "No matter what rank of commander he is, we can clearly see on the map that Yunliang Town, Loushuo Town, and Guiyuan Town of the Three Towns of the Yellow River are still about a hundred miles away from their main city."

"We can lead 2,000 men across the Yellow River. As long as we occupy these three towns and use them as our strongholds, we will still have the advantage."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said to Zhang Zhao, "If we take two thousand elite soldiers with us, the defense in the rear will be empty. What if the enemy attacks our main city?"

"We still don't have enough troops."

Daming Town has no more than 3,000 elite troops at most. Although each city has 200 to 500 militiamen, these are not professional militiamen. They are all recruited by villagers. Their combat power is naturally lower than that of militiamen. It is unrealistic to expect them to defend the city with all their strength.

If 2,000 of these 3,000 elite soldiers were sent out to attack the city, and the remaining troops were to encounter a surprise attack by the enemy, the main city of Daming Town might be destroyed.

At that time, it was undoubtedly a huge blow to the entire Dameng Dynasty.

Zhang Zhao said: "General, I am not suggesting that we send troops now. What I mean is that we already have the ability to fight at sea."

"Once we have enough troops, there may be a possibility of a war in the future."

"Our most urgent task should be to focus on recruiting soldiers, strengthening defenses, developing internal affairs, and preparing for future wars." Zhang Zhao did not recommend that Daming Town continue to passively defend. No matter how powerful the opponent's generals were, Daming Town would have to be defeated sooner or later. Because of the natural disadvantage of its geographical location, if Daming Town passively waited for defense, the situation in Daming Town would only get worse.

But if we can capture the opponent's three towns on the Yellow River in one fell swoop and use them as strongholds, we can fight a war of attrition with the opponent. This is the best for the future strategic planning of Daming Town!

Zhuge Liang listened to Zhang Zhao's suggestion and nodded, "Then we will implement Mr. Zhang's policy!"

The meeting adjourned.

Zhuge Liang immediately allocated his skill points. This battle with Wen Pin made him feel threatened for the first time. It was obvious that the opponent had not yet used his full strength. If he really fought against him with all his strength, he might not lose.

Zhuge Liang had a smooth journey along the way, and he did not encounter any major threats until he unified the entire south bank of the Yellow River.

But this time, he deeply felt the power of the other party!

After spending 400 points, Zhuge Liang immediately upgraded his spear skills, sword skills, Mo Dao skills, and archery skills to the fourth-rate level.

There are 519 skill points left, just enough to upgrade the Broken Wind Horse and Chi Mang.

The opponent also has a companion beast, so Zhuge Liang had to spend skill points on his own companion beast so that Chi Mang and Pofengma would not be at a disadvantage in future battles!
……

at the same time.

Wen Pin had already returned to the capital of the Yu Dynasty with less than 700 soldiers.

Wang Yu, Gan Ning, Le Jin and other generals as well as Li Su and other counselors came to welcome Wen Pin back.

Gan Ning was the first to notice something was wrong and asked hurriedly, "General Wen, where is General Ma Zhongma?"

Wen Pin was silent for a moment, then said, "He was beheaded."

Immediately, all the high-ranking officials of the Yu Dynasty changed their expressions!
It is not shocking that Ma Zhong was beheaded. After all, military generals always fail. Li Dian was of a higher level than Ma Zhong, but he was still beheaded.

But this was done with Wen Pin's support! How fierce was the other party to kill Ma Zhong under the nose of General Wen Pin?

Wang Yu hurriedly said to Wen Pin, "General Wen, are you okay?"

Wen Pin shook his head and said, "It's okay."

"What happened?"

Wen Pin said, "Go in and tell me in detail."

"it is good!"

After everyone entered the meeting room, Wen Pin spoke up, "One of the other generals has martial arts skills comparable to mine."

Everyone was shocked! As expected, the Great Dream Dynasty was able to unify the north, and there was also a fifth-rate general to support it!
"Is it the enemy commander?" Li Su asked hurriedly.

Wen Ping shook his head and said, "I don't know... Don't act rashly for now, just focus on defense!"
