Page 593Chapter 593-Recruiting Huo Qubing

Naturally, Huo Qubing was waiting for Ouyang Shuo and his army.
Under the night sky, the Divine Martial Guards were like a tornado, as they charged into the messy camp. When Ouyang Shuo threw out the head of the Tuqi King of the Left, the entire camp bustled with excitement.
"General, I've fortunately completed the task!"
Ouyang Shuo walked to the front of Huo Qubing and reported the battle results.
"Well done!"
Huo Qubing was a person of little words. However, his eyes contained an undeniable happiness and even a slight amount of shock.
After coming into contact with the Xiongnu people for an extended period of time, Huo Qubing had grown extremely clear about the incredible escape speed of the Tuqi King of the Left. Even Huo Qubing lacked the confidence to catch that fellow.
As such, he had never expected to see the Tuqi King’s head taken down in less than four hours.
Just as Ouyang Shuo was thinking about how to approach Huo Qubing, a battle notification sounded out.
"Battle Notification: Congratulations player I’m Called Big Bad Wolf for locating the lost Li Guang and his men and successfully recruiting them. The Battle of Mobei Li Guang questline is officially over."
……
"Battle Notification: General Wei Qing successfully led his troops to attack Zhaoxin City. Xiongnu Chan Yu escaped; no one managed to kill him. Wei Qing recruitment quest failed, Battle of Mobei Wei Qing questline is officially over."
……
"Battle Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for helping General Huo Qubing kill the Tuqi King of the Left. As the Huo Qubing questline only has Qiyue Wuyi remaining, he has completed the mission and successfully recruited god rank general Huo Qubing. Battle of Mobei Huo Qubing questline is officially over."
……
The three consecutive battle notifications dazzled all the Lords that remained in the battle map.
Three days ago, Wei Qing had already taken down Zhaoxin City.
Out of the eighteen Lords, there were only eight Lords left at the time of taking down Zhaoxin City. This included the likes of Feng Qiuhuang, Chun Shenjun, and Xiong Ba.
However, no matter how much they searched the grasslands, they could not find the Xiongnu Chan Yu.
They received no news for a few consecutive days.
Not to mention the Lords, even the Xiongnu people could not find their own Chan Yu. As the Chan Yu had lost contact with his troops during the battle, some people thought that he had died. As such, they crowned the Right Guli King as the new Chan Yu.
As for the Lord I’m Called Big Bad Bolf that found Li Guang, it was not pure luck. Like his name, this person owned a spirit beast wolf.
Just relying on this spirit beast, he had located Li Guang extremely early on and smoothly recruited him.
Gaia had not reported the matter to wait for the Huo Qubing questline. Before which, the Mission was to reach the Khentii Mountains first.
As such, Gaia cleanly judged that the questline was over.
Since Zhang Liao's forces had given up and Ouyang Shuo's troops had contributed greatly, he was naturally deemed as the victor of the questline.
The moment this questline ended, Gaia also ended the Wei Qing questline.
This decision crushed the last hopes of the Lords.
Ouyang Shuo had previously held some slight ambitions regarding this matter. Originally, he had planned to convince Huo Qubing to lead his troops to assist Wei Qing. With the abilities of Little White, he would definitely find Chan Yu.
Who knew that Gaia would act so spontaneously.
The Battle of Mobei neared its end.
Along with the battle notification, the roles of Ouyang Shuo and Huo Qubing were immediately reversed.
In the main troop tent, Huo Qubing went to greet Ouyang Shuo.
"General Huo Qubing greets the Lord!" Huo Qubing bowed solemnly.
"General, please rise; I've admired you for so long!"
Ouyang Shuo smiled as spoke. Then, he eagerly checked out Huo Qubing's stats.
Name: Huo Qubing (God Rank)
Title: Top 10 Olden Chinese Generals
Dynasty: West Han
Identity: Shanhai City General
Occupation: Special General
Loyalty: 75
Command: 95
Force: 85
Intelligence: 88
Politics: 42
Specialty: Cavalry Battle (30% increase in cavalry morale, 50% increase in cavalry movement speed, 35% increase in killing strength of cavalry, 40% increase in stamina of cavalry)
Cultivation Method: Broken Capture Sword Code
Equipment: Eight-sided Han Sword
Evaluation: Huo Qubing used the Xiongnu people against their own country, making the Xiongnu tribes live in terror. During his ten years in battle, he attacked Wang Ting, climbed up the Khentii Mountains, and shocked the Xiongnu.
This was not surprising. After all, he had done little in the imperial court.
In comparison, Wei Qing's politics stat would be more than 80 points; he was an able minister.
However, the part that caught Ouyang Shuo’s interest was his specialty.
As expected from the cavalry genius. Under the buff of his specialty, the combat strength of a cavalry basically doubled.
This trip was worth it since he had managed to recruit such a god general.
It was already late into the night, so Ouyang Shuo led his troops to take a rest.
The next morning, another battle notification sounded out.
"Battle Notification: The Battle of Mobei officially ends. Now, it is time to tabulate the contribution scores based on player contributions."
As all the Lords belonged to the same camp, there was no winner or loser camp. As such, the process directly entered the final battle tabulations.
A system notification sounded out by Ouyang Shuo's ear.
"System Notification: Player Qiyue Wuyi killed many enemies along the way, fighting the sandstorm, killing the desert bandits, making the Xiongnu surrender, and killing the Tuqi King of the Left. Awarded an extra forty thousand battle contribution points."
Compared to the previous battle map, the rewards for this one paled in comparison. The standout point of this battle would be the fight for the three historical generals.
Even so, Ouyang Shuo had still earned a sizeable amount of battle contribution points.
After tabulating all the extra battle contribution points, the final rankings were confirmed.
Position-Name-Battle contribution points
1st: Qiyue Wuyi- 300000 points
2nd: Chun Shenjun- 200000 points
3rd: Feng Qiuhuang- 180000 points
4th: Bai Hua- 150000 points
5th: Zhan Lang- 125000 points
6th: Di Chen- 120000 points
7th: Xiong Ba- 115000 points
8th: I’m Called Big Bad Wolf- 100000 points
9th: Xunlong Dianxue- 85000 points
10th: Sha Pojun- 80000 points
Looking at the rankings, all the battle contribution points of the Lords had greatly shrunk. Even Ouyang Shuo, who had fought over ten battles during this battle map, had only obtained half of the points he gained during the Battle of Julu.
This battle definitely would not leave that great of an influence on the classes of the Lords.
During the Battle of Mobei, I’m Called Big Bad Wolf was the biggest winner.
For every battle to birth a dark horse was truly an interesting matter.
Of course, even though he had shone brightly, he still could not compare to Ouyang Shuo. Even without taking into account other reasons, Ouyang Shuo had obtained first place in five consecutive battle maps.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Ouyang Shuo ruled the battle contribution points rankings.
Needless to say, after Huo Qubing officially moved into Shanhai City, who knows how many Lords' hearts were broken.
From the start of the battle, Ouyang Shuo had obtained an extra 15% of battle contribution points. Hence, his final count reached 345 thousand.
By the time the battle ended, a total of five hundred Divine Martial Guards had died.
Based on the battle map settings, to revive one dead soldier would cost 20 points; this was two times the points obtained from killing a normal soldier.
Gaia was truly black hearted, doubling the amount in a blink.
Hence, to revive the Divine Martial Guards, Ouyang Shuo used up ten thousand points.
In the end, based on the 10:1 exchange rate, Ouyang Shuo had obtained 33.4 thousand merit points. As for the commerce city, there was nothing that caught his interest.
Along with the ten thousand merit points he was given at the start, Ouyang Shuo had earned 43.4 thousand merit points during the Battle of Mobei.
With that, Ouyang Shuo checked his merit points total. It had reached a nice figure of 420 thousand. He was around halfway till the duke rank.
With such a rate, who knows how long it would take. It seemed he could only rely on world wars to quickly obtain merit points.
After the tabulation of the battle contribution points, the players also swept the commerce city clean.
At this point, the battle map had truly ended, and the Lords teleported back to the main map.
Ouyang Shuo, who had taken the crown of the battle map for the fifth time, stayed back once more.
Who knows what kind of special reward he would obtain for being the champion this time? With the generosity of the Wu King of Han, it should not be a small item.
Seeing that there was still some time, Huo Qubing invited someone to meet Ouyang Shuo.
He was Zhao Ponu.
As someone loyal to Huo Qubing, Zhao Ponu naturally wanted to come along.
When Ouyang Shuo heard that request, he laughed.
He did not expect that when recruiting generals, there was actually a two for one deal.
Of course, Zhao Ponu was not considered a prominent general. Even though he was graded as a king rank general, he was still one of the relatively weaker ones.
