<Fei Yang Kingdom''s side, General Wei and Emperor Yang Zhou''s location, the long north border between Fei Yang Kingdom and Zhang Xu Kingdom>


    Gong!


    As the war drum sounded, the soldiers began to retreat to their respective side. It was already night time and the battle had been prolonged for a long period of time. Even if the two sides didn''t want it, they had to rest when it was night time.


    General Wei walked to the city wall and stopped in front of a door. The guards there quickly announced his arrival.


    "General Wei is here, Your Majesty."


    "Let hime in."


    The guards beckoned for him to enter and General Wei pushed the door open. The room was rtively simple and totally not like the room in the grand pce. At this time, Emperor Yang Zhou was sitting while writing something on the bamboo scroll in front of him.


    "Your Majesty, this subject is here to report on the war today."


    "Good work. Did Prime Minister Lei used the special strange soldiers?" Emperor Yang Zhou asked and turned around. He looked at General Wei calmly.


    "Yes, Your Majesty. In ordance to the methods that General Xing had told in secret, we don''t have much trouble in dealing with them. However, the loss of soldiers is almost certain when dealing with them."


    "Their number is not unlimited and Prime Minister Lei should pull them back when he found out that we figured a way to deal with them." Emperor Yang Zhou tapped his thigh while thinking. "Until that time, try your best to eliminate them."


    "Yes, Your Majesty. Are you going to make an appearance again tomorrow, Your Majesty?"


    "Why not?" Emperor Yang Zhouughed lightly yet there was no mirth in his eyes. "It would be fun to have me as the bait again, wouldn''t it?"


    "This subject wouldn''t dare."


    "You may leave."


    "Yes, Your Majesty."


    General Wei cupped his fist and turned around to leave. After interacting with Emperor Yang Zhou for the past two weeks, General Wei had already understood some of Emperor Yang Zhou''s behavior.


    One thing for certain…


    This Emperor truly understood the art of war and not onlye here to y but to help with the war. With the appearance of the Emperor, General Wei had already shaken Prime Minister Lei a few times.


    And being led by the Emperor himself caused the soldiers'' morale to skyrocket.


    The identity of an Emperor is very high in the heart of the people.


    They all knew that normally, they wouldn''t be able to see the Emperor if not for this special circumstance where the Emperor personally led them on the battlefield.


    As for being used as a bait….


    That was one of the few tactics that General Wei thought. However, he still had to ensure Emperor Yang Zhou''s safety, so he didn''t dare to be so reckless in his action. He couldn''t possibly loss the Emperor just for one petty battle.


    After General Wei returned to his room, a soldier came to him while running and then knelt down.


    "General Wei, there''s reporting from the north. It''s about General Yu."


    "General Yu?"


    General Wei took the bamboo scroll and read the content. Even though Fei Yang Kingdom had achieved an agreement with Yu Jin, they still couldn''t fully trust her. In the end, they arranged for some people to keep watch for Yu Jin.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>


    So far, she hadn''t done anything.


    But looking at this piece of news on the bamboo scroll, General Wei could only shake his head.


    It seemed that Yu Jin was quite impatient.


    He hoped that this move of Yu Jin would not cause disturbance in the overall surface of the power of Fei Yang Kingdom.

    *Yawn*


    Fang Sheng Lin leaned on the ground while hugging hisrge ive. He was bored because the battle was not as fun as he thought it would be. Prime Minister Lei had so many arrangements that he felt annoyed just listening to it.


    For him, it would be better to charge forward without caring for anything else and fight to the bitter end.


    Oh well, he didn''t want to die yet.


    So not to the bitter end yet and only have a hearty battle.


    "Get up, Prime Minister Lei is looking for you." General Cong, the new general who was assigned to Prime Minister Lei looked at Fang Sheng Lin with annoyance.


    His performance had been bad and Prime Minister Lei seemed to have a lot of opinions on him.


    This would make it difficult for him to keep his status as a general.


    "Huh? Oh." Fang Sheng Lin stood up and walked in the direction of the tent. He saw Prime Minister Lei was looking at the report in his hand with solemn expression while there was an annoying strategist who was sleeping at the side.


    Prime Minister Lei raised his head and felt a bit of headache. Everyone around him seemed to have strange personality and among them, Fang Sheng Lin was the hardest to deal with because this man only wanted to fight.


    Following arrangement?


    That rarely happened and if the instruction was a bit moreplicated, Fang Sheng Lin would end up straightaway ignoring it.


    He was truly annoyed.


    "You will lead the special group of soldiers tomorrow. Try to breakthrough General Wei''s defense."


    "Ah?" Fang Sheng Lin arched his eyebrows and then asked, "Then, I can fight against General Wei."


    "…Up to you."


    "Got it."


    Seeing Fang Sheng Lin posture, Prime Minister Lei actually wanted to say a few more words about the arrangement, but the other party had already left. He sighed deeply and turned to look at Strategist Mang.


    "Stop pretending to sleep."


    Strategist Mang turned his head to look at Prime Minister Lei. "What do you want me to do? Would you like for me to start standing at the limelight?"
