Chapter 696 Qin Niu Goes into Battle!

Qin Niu had practiced martial arts in Taoism since childhood and was highly skilled. He believed that he was absolutely worthy of the title "one against ten thousand men".

Although strategic planning and commanding large armies are not his forte, he is confident that he will not lose to anyone when it comes to one-on-one combat or leading troops into battle.

Niu Mo's words struck a chord with him, making him somewhat tempted.

"General Niu's words have really stirred my blood."

"Although I, Qin Niu, am not a born general, I have practiced martial arts since childhood, and my skills are not for nothing. If I could personally take to the battlefield and compete with Wu Qi, it would be a very rewarding experience!"

Qin Niu smiled slightly, his tone revealing a hint of eagerness.

"General Qin, this is the perfect opportunity for us to make a name for ourselves!"

"You lead the troops into battle, while I remain in the rear, providing you with supplies and manpower. With our combined efforts from within and without, we will surely defeat Wu Qi and safeguard the peace of Wuzhou!"

Seeing this, Niu Mo was overjoyed, knowing that his provocation had worked, and quickly pressed his advantage.

Qin Niu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

He knew that this battle was of great importance; if they lost, the Yellow Turban Army in Wuzhou would likely never recover.

However, defeating Wu Qi would not only boost morale but also elevate his status within the Yellow Turban Army.

Moreover, with Niu Mo and Hong Hai'er in charge of things in the city, he could feel much more at ease.

"But……"

Qin Niu was still somewhat hesitant. Although he was eager to try, he also understood that war was not child's play and he could not rush into battle based on mere enthusiasm.

"But what 'but'?!"

"Brother Qin, as you and I both know, morale is paramount in war. Your personal command this time will not only boost our army's morale but also show the enemy your might, which might even frighten them into retreating!"

Upon seeing this, Niu Mo immediately interrupted Qin Niu, fearing that he might change his mind.

Seeing Niu Mo's impassioned words, as if Qin Niu's participation in the battle could immediately change the course of the war and turn the tide.

Upon hearing this, Qin Niu's mind began to shift.

He knew that although he was not good at commanding large armies, he was unmatched in charging into battle.

Perhaps, I really can become the key figure who changes the course of the battle.

"Fine!"

"This time, I will personally lead the charge and confront Wu Qi, to see just how capable he truly is!"

Qin Niu finally made up his mind, clenching his fists. Since he couldn't compete with Wu Qi in commanding troops, he could only rely on his own strength.

"Brother Qin, I knew you could do it! Go and fight with peace of mind. With Red Boy and me guarding Wuzhou City, there won't be any problems."

Niu Mo was overjoyed to see Qin Niu agree, but on the surface he pretended to be calm and patted Qin Niu on the shoulder.

Qin Niu nodded, feeling somewhat worried, but mostly filled with anticipation and fighting spirit for Wu Qi's army at the front.

He turned to look at Red Boy, only to see Red Boy smiling at him, his eyes gleaming with an inexplicable light.

Qin Niu felt a little more at ease. Although the child was still young, he was unusually mature. With him by Niu Mo's side, he could keep this wild bull in check, which made Qin Niu feel much more at ease.

"Red Boy, you and your father must guard Wuzhou City well, and await my triumphant return!"

Qin Niu spoke solemnly, as if he were entrusting something extremely important.

Red Boy smiled slightly and nodded, a smile that seemed to conceal some deeper meaning.

"General Qin, rest assured, my father and I will definitely guard this place well."

Although his voice was young, his tone was mature, as if he were encouraging Qin Niu.

Qin Niu said no more, turned around and strode out of the council hall to begin preparations for the expedition.

He personally selected an elite force from the tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers and hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban civilians in Wuzhou City. These soldiers were all highly skilled and brave warriors from the Yellow Turban army. Although the number of soldiers was small, each one of them was personally selected by Qin Niu and had extremely strong combat power.

After a brief oath-taking ceremony, Qin Niu didn't waste any more words and set off with his elite troops.

...

Meanwhile, dozens of miles away in the vanguard camp of Wu Qi's army, Wu Qi was standing in front of a map, deep in thought.

On the map, the topography of Wuzhou was clearly marked, and every river and mountain seemed to come alive in his mind.

On the map, even the cities of Wuzhou and the deployment of both sides' armies were marked in detail with various markers.

Wu Qi's fingers lightly traced the map, pausing at each key point to ponder deeply.

He had already considered the entirety of the war in his mind, and even foresaw the possible reactions of his opponents.

The Yellow Turban Army in Wuzhou would not sit idly by and wait for their doom; they would definitely send troops to fight. What he had to do was to guide the war toward his desired outcome in an almost artistic way.

He wanted to make this battle in Wuzhou a personal showcase for Wu Qi!

Let the world know that he, Wu Qi, is absolutely no less capable than the various commanders-in-chief under Su Ye's command!

Let the world know that he, Wu Qi, is absolutely no less capable than the various commanders-in-chief under Su Ye's command!

He already knew that the Yellow Turban Army of Wuzhou would send troops to fight, and even the specifics of who would lead the troops, the size of the force, and the tactics used—information that required further observation and judgment—were directly delivered to him by Luo Wang.

Although Wu Qi himself was full of confidence in himself, no matter who his opponent was.

He believed in his military strategy, his army, and even more so in his own judgment.

In his view, the outcome of this war was already predetermined—victory was destined to belong to him, Wu Qi, and his Hengzhou army.

However, since there was an easier way, and it was a pity that he couldn't fully demonstrate his skills, Wu Qi wasn't the kind of person who was inflexible.

After marveling at his lord's terrifying plan, he began to devise a strategy to target Qin Niu, the only remaining war god of the Yellow Turban Army in Wuzhou, based on the intelligence from Luo Wang and Meng Zhang of Luzhou.

"Report—"

A messenger hurried into the tent, clutching a secret letter tightly in his hand, his face covered in dust and grime.

Wu Qi took the secret letter, opened it, and couldn't help but smile faintly.

The intelligence from the Luo Wang organization under his lord was always so timely and accurate that he was fully aware of every subtle change on the battlefield.

"Yes, as expected, the Yellow Turban Army in Wuzhou couldn't hold back any longer and is preparing to send troops."

"Look, Qin Niu is personally leading the troops. It seems they want to have a head-on confrontation with me."

Wu Qi muttered to himself, then handed the secret letter to Xue Gang beside him.

"Haha, this Qin Niu is exceptionally brave, yet he's not well-known. Naturally, he's holding back his ambition. He's personally leading the battle this time, probably hoping to use us as stepping stones to make a name for himself..."

Xue Gang took the secret letter, quickly glanced through it, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

"It doesn't matter, isn't this even better? They may be as brave as tigers, but that might also make them fall into my trap."

Wu Qi also smiled slightly, waved his hand, and interrupted Xue Gang.
