Chapter 262

Simply rotten to the core!

His chess skill is limited to knowing how to capture and how to win!

He knows nothing about ko fights, side territories, corner territories, or ko threats!

Technique and strategy are all a pile of dog shit!

He doesn't know what a great dragon is, nor what a ladder capture is.

Yet, with such terrible chess skill, Wang Jian dares not win against him!

Why?

Because he is the Emperor!

Not only must he not win, he must not even refuse to play!

What, do you think my chess is too bad and don't want to play with me?

He can't even let too obviously!

Why?

Because even though Facing Ying Su's chess is bad, he still understands a tiny bit!

For instance, when he was executing a ladder capture, he slightly showed a flaw, and Facing Ying Su pointed directly at that ladder capture and said:

"Why won't you capture my ladder?"

"I..."

That one sentence made Wang Jian want to curse!

But... he could only respectfully bow and say, "This old minister's eyes are dim; I failed to notice!"

Facing Ying Su shook his head and said, "This won't do. Playing chess requires seriousness; you must accompany me properly!"

After saying this, Facing Ying Su turned to watch the beauties dance, and then, naturally, pulled a beauty into his arms!

Then, naturally opening his mouth, that beauty, under Facing Ying Su's training, was also sensible!

She directly drank the wine, then leaned close to Facing Ying Su and fed him with her fragrant tongue!

The key is... after feeding him, she even extended her fragrant snake to tease Facing Ying Su!

Damn it!

Up front, soldiers are fighting in a bloodbath!

You, as the Emperor, indulge in pleasure like this?

This is truly a tyrant!

If any other emperor did this, Wang Jian might not dare to curse aloud, but he would have cursed in his heart long ago!

But this is Facing Ying Su; he dares not curse aloud, nor will he curse in his heart!

There are two reasons for this!

First, Facing Ying Su has invested too much in this army; as the Emperor, he has already done everything, so there is no need to do anything else to prove himself!

The invested Qian Liang, supplies, cannons, talents, and fierce generals!

All of this has already proven Facing Ying Su's importance to this army!

With this importance, there is absolutely no need to put on a show like other emperors, playing the game of unity between ruler and minister!

Because... whether general or soldier, whatever they want, Facing Ying Su has already given them!

With huge Qian Liang support, plus high official titles and ranks, what soldier or general would not be loyal?

Second is... this battle will surely be won!

Not only a sure victory, but a great victory!

This battle can even annihilate the entire enemy army!

Facing Ying Su will never doubt this from start to finish!

At first, Wang Jian was a little worried, after all, the enemy had two hundred thousand men with an absolute numerical advantage!

But... when Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu's army recklessly charged into the swamp, Wang Jian was not worried at all!

Nor would he doubt whether this battle could be won!

Are you kidding?

Who is the one commanding the army in battle?

Han Xin!

He has already experienced Han Xin's abilities!

If this battle were fought on flat ground, Wang Jian might have considered Gu Ji regarding the enemy's two hundred thousand troops!

But where is this?

It's the swamp!

In a place like the swamp, even fierce men like Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao dare not tread lightly.

Would two hundred thousand troops dare to enter?

Seeking death!

This is purely coming to die!

Fighting in such a place, with the swamp already occupied in advance.

The enemy, let alone two hundred thousand, even if two million came, a hundred thousand troops could still fight them!

This is no joke!

And besides this terrain advantage, there are cannons!

What kind of divine weapon are cannons?

The Great Qin's longest-range weapons are only heavy crossbows and trebuchets!

But even heavy crossbows and stone-throwing carts can only fire out about two li!

But what about cannons?

Ten li away, they can blast people to bits!

And one blast can kill a dozen or even several dozen men!

The key is that kind of shrapnel shell!

When that explodes, even if the fragments don't kill, they can wound!

The flying shrapnel can hack a man's arm clean off!

How exaggerated is that!

Warfare depends on the right timing, the right terrain, and the right morale of the troops!

Hold one of those, and you already have a thirty percent chance of winning!

And Han Xin has seized all three—timing, terrain, and morale.

Then it's at least a ninety percent chance of victory!

On top of that, there's the absolute advantage in weaponry.

With such a huge advantage, if the enemy's casualties don't reach half, it would mean Han Xin simply doesn't know how to fight a war!

Even wiping them out completely wouldn't be the slightest exaggeration!

So what's there to worry about, damn it!

There's no need to worry at all.

As for Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu and Fan Zeng's side, they have no choice either!

Put it this way—charging into the swamp to fight Han Xin, they'd still have a ten percent chance of winning!

But if they wait for Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao to recover, and then add Han Xin's command on top of that, the Xiongnu side probably wouldn't even have a half-percent chance of winning!

No way around it!

They're just that fierce!

What is there to worry about?

No need!

Absolutely no need!

Just stay here now and wait for Han Xin to come report the results of the battle.

It's just… what Wang Jian can't figure out is that he himself isn't worried, isn't anxious—that's fine, after all, he's been leading troops into battle for years.

He knows military matters too well!

It's perfectly normal that he isn't worried!

But why the hell isn't Facing Ying Su worried!
