Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 1328: Chapter 307: Zhao Pusheng: H-How Is This Possible

Finally disappearing into nothingness, after a moment, Peng Yingyu said: ”We are all on the same side, let’s not damage the harmony.”

With these words, Ni Wenjun and Zhao Pusheng stopped their hands, secretly thinking, although they are very strong, the gap between them and the people on the Heavenly List is still enormous.

There’s a whole Great Realm difference.

Even though the two stopped fighting, Zhao Pusheng still turned his head to Peng Yingyu and said: ”Master, what do you think about today’s arrangement, should our Right Wing Army take the lead, or should their Left Army lead the charge.”

Peng Yingyu hesitated for a moment and was about to speak, when Xu Shouhui beside him said: ”State Preceptor!”

Peng Yingyu looked at Xu Shouhui, and Xu Shouhui said: ”State Preceptor, I have something I am not sure if I should say or not.”

Peng Yingyu said: ”Your Majesty, please speak without hesitation.”

Xu Shouhui said: ”This is a national war and must not be taken lightly; everything should be for the greater good. Although the Left Army is an important military force of our Empire, securing the rear is of utmost importance. If we encounter danger and our retreat path is cut off, the elite of our Tianyuan Empire are all here.”

”It would become a war of annihilation in an instant, so I ask the State Preceptor to be cautious.”

Peng Yingyu fell silent upon hearing this, pondered for a while, then looked at Ni Wenjun and said: ”Old Ni, I’m afraid you’ll have to endure the grievance and let the Left Army lead the charge.”

Hearing this, Ni Wenjun looked at Peng Yingyu and said: ”Old Peng, do you also think that my Left Army should be the cannon fodder?”

Peng Yingyu said: ”For the greater good, I can only trouble the brothers of the Left Army.”

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun pondered for a long time and said: ”Fine, fine, I didn’t expect you, Old Peng, to also think of our Left Army as cannon fodder.”

”Old Ni.”

Peng Yingyu spoke, looking serious. Ni Wenjun said: ”Old Peng, no need to say more, I won’t make things difficult for you. Fine, since everyone looks down on my Left Army, then our Left Army will be the vanguard, leading the charge!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Shouhui immediately smiled and said: ”Good, it is the Left General who sees the bigger picture. Then I, on behalf of the Empire, thank the Left General for your noble spirit.”

Zhao Pusheng also laughed and said: ”Ni Wenjun, your choice is wise, I thought you would resist to the end, but I underestimated you.”

Ni Wenjun said: ”I will go inform Jiu Si, excuse me.”

After saying this, Ni Wenjun strode out, and watching Ni Wenjun leave, Zhao Pusheng and Xu Shouhui exchanged a victorious smile.

After leaving the tent, Ni Wenjun heard someone whispering inside.

”Heh, it’s really amusing, an army made up of peasants, if not cannon fodder, then what are they? Should we let our elites be cannon fodder? I really don’t know what the State Preceptor is thinking, being so hesitant over such a decision.”

”Exactly, exactly, the useless should be cannon fodder, otherwise should we have our elites be cannon fodder instead!”

”Alright, alright, say less, be careful not to let that Ni hear you.”

”So what if he hears? Can’t call a useless army useless anymore? If he has the guts to take it seriously, let him prove they’re not useless.”

”Yeah, yeah, can’t call junk junk anymore!”

...

A group of soldiers was whispering there, and hearing these whispers, Ni Wenjun clenched his fists fiercely, his face livid, feeling waves of powerlessness at this humiliation.

Yet there was nothing he could do; he could only come to the Left Army’s camp filled with anger.

At this time, Chen Jie was in the center commanding; this journey, Chen Jie did not idle either. Although marching, Chen Jie strictly trained in military formations according to the ”Wu Mu’s Legacy,” training while marching.

These days, Chen Jie felt his expertise in the art of war had improved drastically, not just by a single level compared to when Zhao Ya was just talking about it.

Chen Jie drew a conclusion, which is that the art of war is not empty talk; it requires practical application.

While commanding the Left Army these days, Chen Jie gained unprecedented understanding in the art of war, not just paper talk, but a significant improvement in actual command capability. More importantly, the Left Army developed a deep rapport in cooperating with Chen Jie.

Chen Jie could already command this army as if it were an arm.

Chen Jie felt very satisfied with this; with this skill, he might become a future famous general!

Chen Jie was earnestly commanding the army, feeling the feedback from various commanders, and with this feedback, Chen Jie grew rapidly, and these commanders also matured quickly.

At this moment, Chen Jie was studying the ”Wu Mu’s Legacy” when he saw Ni Wenjun storming in angrily.

His face was full of rage. Seeing this, Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun in surprise and said: ”What’s wrong, Brother Ni, why do you look so upset?”

Hearing this, Ni Wenjun looked up and said: ”It’s infuriating, our Left Army is like the leftover; we do all the dirty work.”

Hearing this, Chen Jie looked at Ni Wenjun and said: ”Brother Ni, why so resentful?”

Ni Wenjun said: ”Jiu Si, you don’t know how infuriating it is today, it really drives me mad!”

Chen Jie said: ”What happened?”

After Ni Wenjun explained the situation, Chen Jie frowned, indeed, the vanguard is the most dangerous, as it can easily fall into the enemy’s encirclement and become cannon fodder.

So being the vanguard is a very dangerous job, which is why Ni Wenjun is so upset.

”Jiu Si, don’t you think they’re bullying us? Just because we’re new soldiers, they call us useless and cannon fodder. I’m not convinced; those seasoned soldiers are not much better than us, why call us useless!”
