"So collapsing at the first blow is their best outcome."
Ding Pulong said: "I donât think so, that Chen Brother seems quite capable, maybe he can withstand the enemyâs assault?"
Zhao Pusheng laughed and said: "Impossible, even if that Chen Jiusi is formidable, he canât turn rot into magic. Marching and fighting isnât just about passion; you need to understand military tactics. Does he know military tactics?"
"How do you know he doesnât?"
Ding Pulong looked at Zhao Pusheng.
Zhao Pusheng laughed heartily: "Is military tactics something any cat or dog can learn?"
"Itâs not that I look down on Chen Jiusi, he was born into a fishermanâs family, his grandfather was just a doctor, with no military family legacy. His master doesnât know tactics either, where would he learn them?"
"Military tactics arenât easy to learn; you must have a legacy from a famous general. Otherwise, you canât learn them, unlike Martial Arts, which you might pick up among civilians. But military tactics, without someone to teach you, even Wu Muâs Legacy would be useless, such is the power of military tactics."
"So to learn military tactics, you must have a legacy. Without it, even if an upper-class book was placed before you, you wouldnât understand."
"I acknowledge that Chen Jiusi is talented in Martial Arts, but claiming he knows tactics is boasting. I believe he canât withstand a strike from the Grey Wolf Army."
Zhao Pusheng confidently analyzed, after all, military tactics arenât something any cat or dog can learn.
Military tactics require guidance from someone knowledgeable in the military family, otherwise even Wu Muâs Legacy would be like reading a Heavenly Book.
In this regard, Zhao Pusheng wasnât wrong; the first time Chen Jie got the Wu Muâs Legacy, it was like reading a Heavenly Book, but Chen Jie was fortunate, with Zhao Ya by his side, a knowledgeable beauty teacher who taught him tactics.
And Chen Jie experienced the wonders of tactics in practice, thus he completely underestimated Chen Jiusi.
At this moment, Xu Shouhui watched the lively discussion and said to Zhao Pusheng and Ding Pulong: "Gentlemen, this argument is pointless, why donât we make a bet?"
Upon hearing this, Ding Pulong glanced at him and said: "Bet on what?"
"On how long Chen Jiusi can last before being defeated. Iâll bet thirty minutes."
Zhao Pusheng replied: "No need for thirty minutes, Iâll bet on 15 minutes."
Xu Shouhui looked at Ding Pulong and said: "Pulong, how long will you bet?"
Upon hearing this, Ding Pulong said: "Iâll bet he wonât be defeated."
Xu Shouhui responded: "Alright, Pulong, I think youâll surely lose."
Xu Shouhui quickly added: "Iâll use this Jade as the stake."
Zhao Pusheng unfastened the golden knife he carried.
Ding Pulong frowned at them and said: "You really donât believe in Chen Jiusi."
Zhao Pusheng and Xu Shouhui sneered, itâs not that we look down on him; he simply canât win!
Seeing this, Ding Pulong said: "Iâll wager these Buddha Beads."
Zhao Pusheng said: "Those are the Buddha Beads your master gave you."
Ding Pulong said: "Yes, Iâll wager these Buddha Beads on Chen Jiusiâs victory!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shouhui said: "Thatâs a shame, youâre probably going to lose everything."
After saying this, Ding Pulong remained silent, while the eunuch exclaimed: "Look, the Grey Wolf Army is attacking Chen Jiusi!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked in that direction.
