From refugee NPC to mythical general

Chapter 151 Guerrilla Warfare

Zhuge Liang had no intention of leaving right away. Since he was already here, how could he leave without saying goodbye?

The experience points gained this time were indeed too little, so he took Wang Da and other 500 cavalrymen to infiltrate the enemy's territory. In this way, he encountered two waves of patrol troops in succession and killed fifty and eighty people respectively.

This time Zhuge Liang gained another 6500 experience points, which really satisfied him. In addition, he also gained 650 skill points.

As a result, Zhuge Liang's total experience value reached 9950 when he came to the northern border this time, which was one-third of the full amount of .

As long as this one third is completed, he can be promoted to a fourth-rate general immediately. Once promoted to a fourth-rate general, Zhuge Liang's martial power will be no less than that of a third-rate general. At that time, the Dameng Dynasty, which has two third-rate generals in Zhang Liao and Zhuge Liang, can launch an active invasion towards the Wu Dynasty!

At the same time, Zhuge Liang's skill points had reached 1204 points. Zhuge Liang was not stingy and immediately spent 404 points to raise the proficiency of the four weapons to the level of a first-class general. As for the remaining skill points, Zhuge Liang planned to add them to Pofengma and Chimang respectively after returning to see what these two guys would become.

After all four weapons have reached first-class level, Zhuge Liang will get a certain force value bonus when using these four weapons. He is now a fifth-rate general, and his force value has reached 72 points of a fourth-rate general. After the enhanced weapon proficiency, the force value can be increased to 75 points!
Wu Chao had chosen to endure it, but he never expected that the other side would go too far and kill more than 200 of their patrolling soldiers.

Wu Dynasty's lord Wu Yingxiong was furious. Seeing the other party's unscrupulous provocation, if he did not fight back, he would only feel incompetent.

However, Zhuge Jin still persuaded Wu Yingxiong. In Zhuge Jin's opinion, the other party was deliberately provoking the Wu Dynasty and taking the initiative to provoke a war. As long as the Wu Dynasty fought back, the Dameng Dynasty could immediately start a confrontation between the two armies... If the other party did not have absolute certainty, how could they dare to test the Wu Dynasty again and again?
This further proved Zhuge Jin's guess that the Dameng Dynasty wanted to provoke a war between the two sides.

They did not want to attack the city because it would cause them to suffer heavy casualties in the process. After all, everyone who had experienced previous wars knew the difficulty of sieges.

Whoever takes the initiative to attack the city will be at a disadvantage.

Therefore, this series of actions by the Dameng Dynasty was undoubtedly intended to provoke a head-on charge on the plains between the two sides. The more they did so, the more Zhuge Jin must not let his lord be fooled!
Zhuge Jin was smart and thought he had seen through the tricks of the Dameng Dynasty, but Zhuge Liang did not play according to the rules at all.

Before coming, Jiang Wei and his men had actually decided to attack the enemy in equal measure. They would kill as many enemies as the number of their own people attacked them. After all, Jiang Wei had no idea. If the other side really wanted to start a war in anger, then the Dameng Dynasty would have to consider whether they could cope with the attack.

So before Zhuge Liang came, Jiang Wei reminded Zhuge Liang not to go too far and not to force the other party into desperate situations.

But Zhuge Liang had already forgotten all these words. In Zhuge Liang's view, the two sides would have to attack each other sooner or later, and nothing was more important than improving his own strength.

That's why Zhuge Liang acted on his own initiative. However, he also considered that the more arrogant he was, the more cautious the other party would be. It would be fine if the other party did not have a counselor, but unfortunately, the other party had a counselor, and a very high-level counselor at that.

These counselors always think they have everything planned out. The more exaggerated you act, the more afraid they will be. They may even think that Daming Town is really going to go to war with the other side, and don't think Zhuge Liang is just bluffing.

……

The meeting hall of the Dameng Dynasty.

When Jiang Wei heard that Zhuge Liang had killed more than 200 enemy soldiers, he was immediately frightened and his face turned pale.

This is tantamount to bullying too much. It is impossible for the other party to do nothing.

If it was just a reciprocal retaliation, the other party might choose to forbear, but how could they forbear now? If they continued to forbear like this, how could they explain to the people in their territory, how could they explain to the soldiers under their command? Zhuge Liang... was too impulsive!

When Zhuge Liang returned to Dameng Town, Jiang Wei approached Zhuge Liang with great concern and asked, "General Zhuge, why, why... why do you continue to slaughter the enemy's army?"

"Didn't we agree on this? Just equal retaliation. If you are so arrogant this time, the other party will definitely not tolerate it. Who knows, they may retaliate. We don't know the other party's military strength now. Once the other party has sufficient military strength, we will suffer!"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang has filtered it out. We have General Zhang here, so what are we afraid of?"

Zhang Liao laughed loudly: "Hahaha! Great! That's great! General Zhuge is right! I'm not afraid of anything. If I go over there, I will kill at least two thousand of his men!"

"What are two hundred people? If they dare to act arrogantly, we will beat them!"

"I, Zhang Liao, have never been afraid of anyone. Let's just wait here for them to attack. You son of a bitch, let's see who dares."

Jiang Wei was speechless. These two guys were truly top-notch talents. He no longer knew how to communicate with them.

Zhuge Liang patted Jiang Wei on the shoulder and said, "Okay, Mr. Jiang, it's okay."

"We have a counselor like you, and the other side must have one too. You smart people tend to overthink things."

"If you were in the other person's shoes, what would you think of my attack?"

Jiang Wei blurted out: "I just think you are deliberately trying to lure us into a war, otherwise you wouldn't be so high-profile. This is enough to show that you have enough troops... Uh!"

Jiang Wei suddenly reacted at this moment and stared at Zhuge Liang blankly. He was taking advantage of the other party's mind, deliberately consuming the other party's military strength, and making the other party dare not send troops at will!

After thinking about this, Jiang Wei couldn't help but be extremely surprised, then he cupped his hands and said: "I understand! General Zhuge, you... are amazing! You are more thorough than I thought!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "It's not that I think too much, it's that you guys are calculating too much and making things too complicated."

"You see, General Zhang thinks things are very simple. If the enemy dares to come, we will fight. If they don't dare to come, we will continue to sneak attack them and consume their military strength!"

Jiang Wei smiled and said to Zhuge Liang, "General, this is a brilliant move...haha, not bad, not bad! That's it!"

"It seems that the general will have to visit the northern border more often in the future."

Zhang Liao's eyes lit up and he said, "I can go for a walk too!"

Just as Zhuge Liang was about to speak, Zhang Liao put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Brother, you won't leave me with you, will you?"
