Chapter 549: Escorted Back to the CapitalChapter 942: Mysterious Weapon
Huangji Tian thought Li Chen must have gone crazy.
But Li Chen told him: "Even you think it's impossible, Yelu Shenxuan wouldn't even dream that facing his 600,000 army, this palace isn't thinking about how to barely survive, but rather about turning the tables and devouring him."
"The soldier is a master of deception."
"Faced with an enemy whose strength is clearly superior, the only way to win is to achieve victory through ingenuity and cleverness."
Li Chen said solemnly, “Don’t you want to take this enormous credit for yourself”
Huangjitian's breathing indeed grew rapid.
I have to admit, the credit is very tempting.
Alluring enough to secure him a place apart from his many brothers.
"What does Your Highness intend to do" Huangji Tian asked.
Outside the Moonlit Pass lay a vast prairie, the natural homeland of Liao cavalry. To defeat them there was nearly impossible. The only way to conquer them was to lure them in.
Li Chen said, "Open the Moonlit Gate and let them enter the territory of Qin. Then close the gate and beat the dogs."
The supreme emperor, Huangji Tian, said solemnly to the prince, “Your Highness, what if this plan goes awry You might be inviting the wolves into the fold.”
“If there was a safe way, this palace wouldn't want to take risks. But when the risk and reward are proportional, it's something to consider.”
Li Chen now acted like a crazy gambler, saying: "Whether it's the Qin Dynasty or your Jin Kingdom, the Khitan Empire has been arrogant for too long. As long as we devour their 600,000 troops, the Liao Kingdom will have no power to invade our two countries for at least five years. What's more, the current Khan of the Liao Kingdom is old and in poor health. At that time, they will be embroiled in chaos within their own country, where do they have the energy to bother with us"
"And we, as long as we pursue victory and annihilate his country, what difficulty would there be"
Huangji Tianyan swallowed hard, and said with a bitter smile: "Your Highness, your eloquence is indeed excellent. Anyone would be moved by your words."
"No matter how eloquent you are, if you lack substance, it's not enough. No amount of flowery language will convince people unless you back it up with tangible results."
Huangji Tian exclaimed in surprise, "Your Highness was prepared"
Li Chen let out a hearty laugh and instructed Wan Jiaojiao, "Go, call Song Yingxing over here."
Huangji Tian and his two attendants exchanged glances. From their intelligence, they had never heard of Song Yingxing from the Qin court. He must have been cultivated privately by Li Chen.
To this, they remained unhurried, patiently waiting to see what Li Chen could produce to impress them.
Soon, Song Yingxing arrived, and he brought a small box with him.
Huangji Tian looked at Song Yingxing, finding him to be just an ordinary man of average height and unremarkable appearance.
"I, Song Yingxing, a humble minister, pay my respects to Your Highness, the Crown Prince."
After entering Xizheng Hall, Song Yingxing immediately knelt down and paid his respects to Li Chen.
"Never mind."
Li Chen waved his hand and said to Song Yingxing, "Take out what you've been researching this period of time."
Song Yingxing nodded and then carefully placed the box on his lap.
The thing should be inside this box.
Huangji Tian's heart moved, he found it a little funny. What could be in the box Li Chen actually had the confidence to convince him to agree to such a crazy plan.
Only to see Song Yingxing open the box, Huangji Tian stretched his neck to look, but what he saw was a large mass of soft cotton batting, in the middle of which there was a cylindrical object wrapped in three layers of soft brocade.our subordinate.""Cooperation"Yelü Shenxuan burst into laughter and said, "Only two people who are equal have the right to cooperate with each other. In the past, you had a unique influence on the pol...
