Chapter 553 The Second Legendary General, Xu Chu!

The two of them conspired for a long time. They both thought that Gu Rubing would not know what they said.

But what they didn't know was that Gu Rubing's spies were everywhere in the palace. Now the content of the two people's conversation was already on the table in front of Gu Rubing.

After looking at the content above, Gu Rubing sneered.

Want to destroy me? It depends on whether you Kushans have the ability.

Gu Rubing didn't care about the affairs of the Kushan Empire. In his eyes, the so-called Kushan Empire was a small country that could be destroyed with a wave of his hand. This also left a disaster for future losses. After all, the Kushan Empire was indeed not big, but its value was not small.

The emperor's edict had been issued for several days, but there was no response from Cao Cao.

Gu Rubing remembered that after Cao Cao left Sili, he told others bad things about him everywhere in order to destroy his reputation. According to Cao Cao's temper, he would definitely scold him everywhere and say that he controlled the emperor.

But now Cao Cao has no voice at all, which means that Cao Cao may no longer be in the Thirteen States of the Han Dynasty.

The most likely one is the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions.

Gu Rubing did guess right.

Cao Cao was indeed in the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions, but Cao Cao's target was not Liangzhou.

Otherwise, under Cao Cao's leadership, when Liangzhou did not have much defensive capabilities, how could it be possible to snatch only two counties? I am afraid that by the time Ma Chao arrived, the entire Liangzhou would have been taken by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's real goal was the Kushan Empire behind the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions.

Speaking of which, the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions approached Cao Cao because of the wrong intelligence.

After the Silk Road was closed, the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions cut off a large part of their economy for a while.

In the end, they couldn't help it and formed an alliance to ask the Han Dynasty to reopen the Silk Road.

However, due to the closure of the Silk Road, the intelligence of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms was transmitted very slowly. In their intelligence, the Han Dynasty was still dominated by the Prime Minister Cao Cao, so they sent envoys to find Cao Cao.

After the envoy entered the Han Dynasty, he learned that Cao Cao was defeated and entered Yizhou. He once thought of looking for Gu Rubing, but when he thought of the order from above, he decided to go to Yizhou to find Cao Cao.

At this time, Cao Cao was struggling to pay Gu Rubing a huge amount of compensation. When he learned that an envoy from the Western Regions had found him, he hurried to meet him.

When Cao Cao learned that they wanted to ask him to open the Silk Road, he was in trouble.

It was not that he did not want to open the Silk Road, but mainly because Liangzhou was no longer in his hands.

Seeing this, Xun Yu on the side gave Cao Cao an idea.

Xun Yu had heard that behind the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, there were several large countries, and there should be a lot of resources there.

Cao Cao immediately reacted and asked the envoy. After getting a positive answer, Cao Cao immediately took Dian Wei and Xu Chu to the Western Regions. After all, if he brought too many people, it would be easy for Gu Rubing to find out. Cao Cao had to do all this in secret.

After arriving in the Western Regions, Cao Cao found that there were thirty-six countries in the alliance, but the total force was only 300,000, of which only thirty-six were first-class generals, namely these thirty-six kings.

As for the rest, they barely reached the edge of second-class generals.

However, Cao Cao got information about Kushan from the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions. The prince and king of the Kushan Empire were both famous generals, and their strength was not weak.

At the current level of Xu Chu, if he could kill these two famous generals, he would naturally become a legendary general. Maybe Dian Wei's evil points would also increase, and then he might be able to compete with Guan Yu.

It happened that Yan Gaozhen passed by the territory of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions with two thousand people, and Cao Cao directly shot and killed him.

Originally, Cao Cao wanted Xu Chu to kill Yan Gaozhen, so he didn't let Dian Wei follow him, but he didn't expect that Yan Gaozhen would run away.

"Prime Minister Cao, I just got the information that the Emperor of the Han Dynasty said that King Lie asked you to go to Sili to meet him."

"Go to Sili? Is Liu Bei crazy? Do you think I am a fool to go to see him? Just ignore him, King Jingjue, are the troops ready?"

King Jingjue nodded, left 100,000 troops and 10 kings to guard Jiuquan County, and confronted Ma Chao and Guan Yu under the leadership of General Dian Wei.

Although Prime Minister, you have not shown up, I think with General Dian Wei there, they will definitely think you are in Jiuquan County.

Cao Cao nodded and sent troops directly to the Kushan Empire.

Gu Rubing did not get a reply from Cao Cao with the help of the imperial edict issued by Liu Xie, but the news from Guan Yu made Gu Rubing sure where Cao Cao was.

Guan Yu saw Dian Wei in Jiuquan County.

If there is Dian Wei, there must be Cao Cao.

This is what Gu Rubing thought in his mind.

At the same time, Guan Yu also sent information about Guan Yu's thirty-six countries in the Western Regions.

After seeing the strength of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, Gu Rubing couldn't help laughing.

These are not thirty-six countries, they are just artifacts for gaining experience.

Gu Rubing opened Ma Chao's panel.

[Name: Ma Chao]

[Military level: Famous general (95/100)

Legendary general points: (87/100)]

[Characteristics...]

The recent wars have greatly improved Ma Chao's level. If Ma Chao kills the rulers of these thirty-six countries, doesn't that mean he will become a legendary general?

Gu Rubing has already imagined what it would be like if all the Five Tiger Generals became legendary generals.

Originally, Gu Rubing was still thinking about Jiaozhou. Now that Ma Chao's breakthrough was just around the corner, Gu Rubing had no time to care about Jiaozhou. After all, there was still a large army rushing to Jiaozhou. There was absolutely no problem in stabilizing the situation.

Finally, Gu Rubing decided to rush to Liangzhou.

When Cao Cao, Xu Chu, and 200,000 troops rushed to the Kushan Empire, the Kushan Empire first sent people to negotiate.

As a result, the envoy sent was directly killed by Cao Cao.

In just three days, Cao Cao occupied half of the territory of the Kushan Empire.

However, so far, the Kushan Empire has only produced a few first-class generals, and the famous general King has never appeared.

Cao Cao even doubted whether this famous general was real, and so far, Cao Cao had not encountered any decent resistance. The territory of the Kushan Empire was similar to that of the Han Dynasty, so why was the combat effectiveness so poor?

Just when Cao Cao was curious, a spy reported that 200,000 people from the Kushan Empire had come, and there were also ten first-class generals leading them.

Cao Cao was immediately excited when he heard that the other party had brought 200,000 people and 10 first-class generals.

But soon, Cao Cao calmed down.

Although the 36 countries gathered 300,000 people, because there had been no war for many years, the overall strength was relatively low. In this case, they might not be the opponent.

Moreover, two famous generals should be able to make Xu Chu a legendary general. If they were all given to Xu Chu, it would not be of much use. What he needed now was the number of legendary generals, not the quality.

Finally, Cao Cao decided to send people to Yizhou in addition to the confrontation, and ordered Cao Zhang to lead the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the Gold-Moving Lieutenant, the General of the Fa Qiu, and Xu Huang to rush here urgently.

The last time Xu Huang accidentally met Zhao Yun, who had become a legendary general, he successfully escaped under the cover of Dian Wei, and improved a lot of famous general points. Now he is on the verge of a famous general.

As for Cao Zhang, Cao Cao wanted Cao Zhang to take this opportunity to make Cao Zhang a legendary general.

The Kushan Empire had become Cao Cao's own experience pool at this time.

The two sides confronted each other, and Xu Chu fought ten first-class generals alone.

Under the enhancement of Xu Chu's tiger crazy characteristics, half an hour later, all attributes increased by 400%.

With the blessing of the chaotic cloak swordsmanship, three first-class generals were killed in an instant.

Cao Cao stared at the experience on the panel and found that only three points were added.

He couldn't help but shake his head. It was a pity that this was a first-class general. If it was quasi-first-class, he might become a legendary general faster.

Not long after, there were only four left of the ten first-class generals.

In the end, the four escaped, and Xu Chu did not rush to chase them, but waved his hand directly.

The 200,000 troops behind him, led by 26 kings, rushed into the camp of the Kushan Empire.

Looking at the changes on the battlefield, Cao Cao couldn't help but frowned.

The combat effectiveness of the 36-nation coalition is indeed a bit worrying.

When Xu Chu killed so many first-class generals of the other side and the morale of the army was high, the casualties could still be 1:1. If there was no Xu Chu, wouldn't he lose?

Cao Cao had no way to deal with this.

He and the rulers of the thirty-six countries were only in an alliance, and they did not recognize him as their leader, so his bonus could not be given to them at all.

Finally, after three hours, the physical strength of both sides could not hold on, so they could only stop fighting and rest, and fight again tomorrow.

Cao Cao was quite helpless at this time. With such an advantage, the loss was as high as 70,000 in one battle. If he faced Gu Rubing's army, he would probably be wiped out in less than a quarter of an hour.

"Waste."

Cao Cao muttered in a low voice.

"Lord, should we organize a night attack on the enemy camp?"

Night attacks were originally a specialty of the Central Plains War, but they were obviously not applicable now.

The coalition forces of the thirty-six countries were exhausted at this time, and the so-called night attacks were all to use the most elite troops to attack the enemy camp to achieve the effect of night attacks, but now, where are the elite troops in the thirty-six countries?

Seeing Cao Cao shaking his head, Xu Chu stopped talking and could only stand aside. After all, he could not make any effective suggestions on this strategic matter.

After Cao Zhang got the news, he immediately led his men to the battlefield of the Kushan Empire.

Gu Rubing was faster in comparison.

After arriving in Zhangye County, Gu Rubing immediately joined Ma Chao and his men.

"My Lord, you are here."

Ma Chao was very helpless at this time. No matter how he yelled and scolded, Dian Wei or the other side's defenders, no one cared about him. If he attacked by force, it would be a bit difficult, after all, there were not many people on hand.

Gu Rubing's mobile crossbow captain also had an intelligence network, but it was only spread in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, and it was still relatively weak in matters outside the domain.

After learning that the other side had only ten kings and Dian Wei, he couldn't help but frowned.

This number of people seemed not enough for Ma Chao to become a legendary general.

Finally, Gu Rubing decided to surround the point and attack the reinforcements.

Under Gu Rubing's command, Ma Chao, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun directly surrounded the entire city.

On the one hand, it was to make the city lose food and disrupt the morale of the army. On the other hand, it was also hoped that the other side would send people to support, so that Ma Chao could definitely become a legendary general.

But after a few days of siege, there was still no news from the city, and even no reinforcements were seen.

"It would be great if the prime minister was in there. The prime minister would definitely have a way."

Gu Rubing sighed helplessly, and finally had to let Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao lead the siege.

Soon, Gu Rubing discovered the weakness of the thirty-six kingdoms. The 100,000 people defending the city had not persisted for two hours before the city gate was breached, and Dian Wei disappeared in the city.

Ma Chao killed ten kings in a row, but he was still three points away from upgrading.

Gu Rubing was a little disappointed.

The most important thing is that Gu Rubing did not find any trace of Cao Cao during this siege.

According to the intelligence, Cao Cao should be in the thirty-six kingdoms.

Could he be in the rear?

At this time, Cao Zhang had already arrived in Cao Cao's camp.

After seeing Cao Zhang coming, Cao Cao was immediately excited.

With the addition of Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and Cao Zhang, Cao Cao's speed was faster.

But at this time, Cao Cao also got the intelligence.

Jiuquan County was defeated, and now Gu Rubing has taken back Jiuquan County and is about to occupy the entire Liangzhou.

Cao Cao had expected this, and he was racing against time with Gu Rubing.

Cao Cao left ten more kings and Dian Wei, who had returned, to defend Gu Rubing on the spot, while he took Cao Zhang and Xu Chu to continue attacking the Kushan Empire.

After just two days, he ran into Dian Wei again, who was stationed with 100,000 people.

This gave Gu Rubing a bad feeling.

He always felt that Dian Wei was doing this on purpose, as if he was deliberately delaying time.

But he couldn't figure out why.

As before, as soon as they fought, the coalition forces of the 36 countries showed a trend of collapse, and Gu Rubing regained the lost land with almost no losses.

However, this time the opponent fled faster, and even a first-class general failed to catch up.

Gu Rubing looked at the map in his hand, and the bad feeling became more and more serious, and the sense of crisis became clearer and clearer.

At this time, Cao Cao had already killed the capital of the Kushan Empire.

This time, the king had to come out.

Seeing the opponent's famous general come out, Cao Cao was excited.

"Xu Chu, go to the battle and kill him."

"Yes, my lord!"

Xu Chu smiled, waved the cloak knife in his hand, and rushed forward directly.

"Big man, you are bullying too much, don't blame me."

As soon as the voice fell, the king rushed out directly.

However, this king was not at the same level as Xu Chu. The two sides fought for less than half an hour before Xu Chu chopped him off his horse.

Xu Chu suddenly felt that his body lightened.

A unique aura instantly erupted from his body, and even the cloak knife in his hand seemed to have become much lighter.

Seeing this situation, Cao Cao couldn't help but shouting.

"It's done, it's finally done, my second legendary general, Xu Chu, is finally out!"
