Ch 1301 - 1305

C1301 Invasion War Against Zhang Xu Kingdom (4)

General Shang snorted. "We covered a wide area. The valley is the fastest route to go deeper into our territory, so I will be heading there to intercept if there's anyone who want to take the shortcut."

"Will they take such obvious trap?" General Jue was not convinced.

"Who would miss out on such a clear route?" General Shang was too lazy to argue with this annoying new general. He had more experience when it came to big battle, so General Shang knew that it would be impossible for them not to use this route.

Were they planning on using the hard route and make trouble for themselves?

It would be better to use two routes at the same time and take the opportunity to step forward as much as possible.

"Then I..."

"You can roam around in the forest." General Shang snorted. "I'm leaving Commander Bin on the headquarter. He can defend it and take note if there are any army going closer to any of us."

General Jue thought of Commander Bin, who was one of the few famous archers in Zhang Xu Kingdom. With him guarding the headquarter, they would be feel saver as he could protect it even from a distance.

As for the problem of close distance?

There were also other commanders who could take that role.

"Got it."

General Shang looked at General Jue. "Don't mess up or you will not be able to handle the consequences."

General Jue snorted and turned around.

The two of them were both arrogant and if not for this sudden battle, they would not be arranged together. But now that Zhang Xu Kingdom was facing attack from 2 directions coupled with the internal problem, they have to make use of all the available manpower.

No matter how much they didn't like this arrangement, they could only stay silent.

The battle against Prime Minister Lei had been going on stalemate for some time. Aside from a few clashes and a lot of soldiers' death, there hadn't been much progress. However, Great General Wei was very patient.

He knew that there was no need to rush.

When it was time, they could win the battle as long as they were patience enough.

"General Wei, His Majesty had arrived."

General Wei paused in his movement and turned around. He nodded at the messenger and walked out. This was one of the few variables that he himself didn't expect, but he will follow the arrangement.

"General Wei greets His Majesty, the Emperor. Long life Your Majesty." General Wei knelt on the ground the moment Emperor Yang Zhou arrived.

"Rise. You don't have to welcome me so grandly." Emperor Yang Zhou purposely didn't mention the matters of his arrival so grandly. What he wanted was to observe the battle with his own eyes and watched the battle that had been going on for a long period of time unfolded right in front of his eyes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." General Wei stood up but he still lowered his head. He didn't dare to look in Emperor Yang Zhou's direction directly.

"I hope that my arrival will not disturb your plan."

"Your Majesty, your arrival will not disturb my plan." General Wei instead had thought of several other plans that could make use of Emperor Yang Zhou's presence. But he didn't say those words out loud because he still had to review these plans one by one to find out whether they were feasible or not.
