Chapter 386: Li Rubing’s Worries

When Deng Sheng's edict was passed to the Jiyang Camp, Yue Fei ordered the cessation of the northward advance, and Deng State stopped at Chenliu County. Deng State's northern expedition came to an end.

At the same time, those who are far away in Wancheng also received rewards from the system after the war ended.

"Ding! The Battle of Northern Expedition ends, and this battle is divided into five parts.

1. The Battle of Changping, Deng Jun won, and rewarded 100 points for the battle

2. Battle of Chencheng, Deng Jun won, reward 50 points for the battle

3. The battle of bitter county, Deng Jun won, rewarded 100 points for the battle point

4. Battle of Fugou, Deng Jun won, rewarded 100 points for the battle point

Five, Battle of Jiyang, Deng Jun wins, rewards 150 points for the battle point

Complete the system task to expand territory, occupy Chenliu County, Chen County, and Liang County, and reward 300 points of the battle point

The current master has 2350 points in the Battle Point!"

He got a large number of hegemony points, which made Deng Sheng very happy. After all, Deng State has faced Zhao State in full and will never stop until death, so it is imperative to use hegemony points to enhance its strength. After the war, Deng Sheng had decided to set up two new guards, and at the same time, he also had the position of prefect of the three counties that had newly obtained the position of prefect, and all of this required talents.

Although Deng State has many local talents and its abilities are quite good, if it is normal, a person with more than 80 points in politics is enough to serve as the prefect of a county or even a governor, Deng Sheng was not satisfied at all because he believed that with a systematic existence, all aspects of Deng State should be equipped with the highest configuration, and even the position of a prefect of a county should be of great talent in the world.

However, all this will not be implemented until the war is completely over. After all, although the war on Deng State has ended, the two allies, Qin State and Chu State, are still fighting, especially Qin State, Shangjun, and Shangdang State. Maybe when Deng State will go north to support the Qin army, so the expansion of the army will be put on hold for the time being, but this will not affect Deng Sheng's good mood. That night, he had a banquet for the ministers in Jingtai Palace.

On the third day of the fifth month of the Qianyuan year, Li Rubing, who was in Gaonu City, Shangjun, was also informed that Zhang Chuan's defeat in Jiyang, which made Li Rubing very happy. Because Zhang Chuan was defeated, the position of the general was unstable. This was a god-given opportunity.

"General, Zhang Chuan's defeat in Jiyang made the king angry and the whole country shocked. I believe that after the war ended, the position of the general would be the general's possession!" Kou Fei said to Li Rubing excitedly. Kou Fei was the best among the younger generation of Zhao and the most loyal follower of Li Rubing. Over the past year, he repeatedly held dissatisfaction for Li Rubing, believing that Li Rubing was the most talented commander after Zhao Xin in Zhao. It was really aggrieved to be under Zhang Chuan, but the overall situation was settled. Even if Kou Fei and others were dissatisfied, they could only choose to accept Zhang Chuan, a new general. However, Kou Fei and the others were still unwilling to give up. They were waiting for Zhang Chuan to make a mistake. As long as Zhang Chuan made a mistake, they could take back the throne of General Li Rubing from Zhang Chuan.

However, what they did not expect was that such an opportunity came so quickly. Zhang Chuan fell into a big fall in Jiyang just one year after becoming a general, which directly made the entire Zhao State question him and provided conditions for Li Rubing to obtain the position of general. It can be said that as long as Li Rubing can successfully block the Qin army in Shangjun, the position of the general can only be Li Rubing. As for another famous general of Zhao State, Sima Chong, he had not been able to compete with Zhang Chuan at the beginning, and it is even more impossible to be Li Rubing's opponent now, so it is not worth worrying.

But Li Rubing was not happy at all. Although Zhang Chuan's failure was of great help to special pursuit of the position of general, Li Rubing did not want Zhang Shuan to be even stalemate. After fighting Bai Qi for so long, Li Rubing was even inferior to Bai Qi. The reason why he could defend was due to the limited strength of Qin and could not defend himself. However, now that Deng's army defeated Zhang Chuan in Jiyang, he was determined in the battle situation in the Central Plains. This means that Deng's army, which ended the conquest of the Central Plains, could free up hands to support the Qin army at any time, which made Li Rubing very unfavorable to the next battle situation.

Li Rubing knew very well that he was just a very likely chance to replace Zhang Chuan as general. The final result still depends on whether he could block the Qin army led by Bai Qi. If he couldn't stop it, then there was no need to think about the position of the general, so Li Rubing now can be said to be very worried.

"Zhang Chuan's defeat is of course of great benefit to me, but if the Deng army goes north to support the Qin army, even if the Deng army cannot reach Shangjun, it can still support the Meng Zhan of Shangdang. If Yue Fei and Meng Zhan join forces to defeat Sima Chong, then I, Zhao, will be in danger. What is the point of becoming this general?" Li Rubing sighed and said, if the Deng army goes north to support the Qin army, even if it helps Meng Zhan break through Sima Chong's defense, it will lead to the collapse of Zhao State. Even the Deng Qin coalition may even march straight into and attack Jinyang City. At that time, no matter who sits in the position of the general, he will bear huge pressure and need a peerless talent to turn the tide.

Although Li Rubing was arrogant, he did not think that he had the ability to turn the tide. By that time, unless Zhao Xin was resurrected, the State of Zhao would be really over. Although it would not have destroyed the country, it was the death knives that sounded. In this case, why would Li Rubing fight for? Everything was meaningless.

When everyone heard Li Rubing's words, they were silent. Yes, Zhang Chuan lost, but it was not lost to Li Rubing. Moreover, Zhang Chuan's failure was also the failure of the entire Zhao State? Although Zhang Chuan's failure highlighted Li Rubing's excellence to a certain extent, the one who really achieved Yue Fei, Deng State, not Li Rubing. What is the significance of the general obtained in this way?

"Then general, what should we do now?" Another general of Zhao army, Le Ting, asked. Zhang Chuan's defeat was not good news for them now. On the contrary, they may face failure at any time now.

Li Rubing said: "You don't have to worry so much. The situation has not yet been corrupted to such an extent. According to the news from Jinyang, the Deng army has stopped and stopped in Chenliu County. For the time being, the Central Plains have stabilized, and Jinyang has dispatched 30,000 elite troops to support us. In addition, our original troops, although we cannot be confident that we can defeat Bai Qi, it is still possible to make it difficult for him to advance. As for whether the Deng army goes north, this is not a question we can care about. However, Shangdang has more than 200,000 troops. Even if Deng and Qin join forces, as long as Sima Chong cannot defend it, there will be no major problems?"

Li Rubing originally had nearly 50,000 troops under his command, and with the 30,000 reinforcements from Jinyang, Jieshi had nearly 80,000 troops. Although it was not guaranteed to defeat Bai Qi's 100,000 Qin troops, it was still possible to defend it, so Li Rubing did not seem too worried.

At the same time, Bai Qi, who was confronting Li Rubing, also received the news that Yue Fei had defeated Zhang Chuan. This was a happy news. After all, Deng and Qin were allies, and the success of their allies was also great news for the Qin army, which means that as long as the Qin army was not supported, they could ask Deng army for help.

However, Bai Qi was not happy because this battle was led by Qin. But until now, the Qin army was still blocked by Zhao army in Gaonu City, which made Bai Qi very angry. At this time, Yue Fei's victory made Bai Qi even more depressed. Is Zhang Chuan weak? Although he had never fought with Zhang Chuan, the person who could be appointed as the general of Zhao by the legendary general Zhao Xin must have good abilities. However, such a hero was defeated when facing Yue Fei, but he was blocked by a young man named Li Rubing, which made Bai Qi feel a sense of frustration.

Bai Qi refused whether to ask for help from Deng’s army. On the one hand, the original alliance stated that although Deng Qin was an ally, he did not govern each other and did not interfere with each other. How much land could be captured depends on his ability, so Deng’s army might not necessarily support him. On the other hand, once he took the initiative to ask for help from Deng’s army, wouldn’t this mean that Bai Qi was not as good as Yue Fei?
