Chapter 1730: He'll Go to Extremes
s said, if they wish to see him, let the one surnamed Dragon come himself and deliver a visiting card at the East Palace gate, following the proper procedure. As for whether or not he will be received...Chapter 1730 He Will Desperate Measures
"How dare he!"
Wu Ban Shan was almost unable to hold back. He flew into a rage, gritting his teeth and saying to Li Chen: "Your Highness, please allow me to bring some swordsmen to chop Ning Wang to pieces!"
This is just hot air.
Li Chen didn't take it to heart at all.
The problem with Prince Ning isn't just about him as an individual. If killing people could solve problems, there wouldn't be any trouble in the world.
"Only this one thing" Li Chen asked.
Wu Yong nodded and said, "That's the only thing."
With a slight narrowing of his eyes, Li Chen was deep in thought at the moment.
Wu Yong remained silent, and Wu Ban Shan also stood aside in silence. No one dared to disturb Li Chen at this time.
After a moment, Li Chen seemed to have made up his mind. He told Wu Yong, "Find a way to send a message to Yelü Shenxuan, but the content needs to be changed. You can't completely deceive him, so just say...Li Chen has set an ambush at Wulong Mountain."
It's still Mount Wolong, but Li Chen replaced the Jin army with himself.
Li Chen was certain that since King Ning had contacted Yelü Shenxuan, the previous battle plan must have been exposed. Although the final plan had just been determined, for a long period of time before that, the Qin army's operations had been paving the way for this final decisive battle, revealing the location of the ambush to Yelü Shenxuan. Yelü Shenxuan could not possibly suspect anything.
Because, it's the truth.
Tell Yelü Shouxin a truth to conceal another, that's the most stable way.
In Li Chen's view, given Yelü Shenxuan's personality, he was now in a difficult situation with no way out. He could only hope for success in this battle, swallowing the entire Gansu-Shaanxi region, and using it as a base to immediately transfer troops from within the Liao Kingdom in the spring. He would then use the nation's full might to conquer the area north of the Yellow River, achieving both factual and military control. As for the areas south of the Yellow River, they were unfavorable for Liao army operations. Li Chen believed that future actions would depend on the changing circumstances and situation, requiring constant adjustments.
This is the most realistic and profit-maximizing strategic option.
Li Chen wasn't sure if the Liao army had larger plans, but at least from Yelü Shenxuan's perspective, Li Chen believed he would definitely choose to do so.
Therefore, when Yelü Shenxuan learned that Wolong Mountain was a carefully set ambush by the Qin army, he not only wouldn't run away but would instead accelerate his charge into it.
Because the current situation and environment have deprived Yelü Shenxuan of his strategic space, the only path he can take is the one leading to Wulong Mountain. He must seize the opportunity before the Qin army has fully deployed its forces and engage in a decisive battle with the shortest possible time frame to determine the victor.
Upon hearing Li Chen's decision, Wu Yong widened his eyes.
With his wisdom and foresight, he couldn't fathom why Li Chen would deliberately reveal Qin army's final plan.
But he was self-aware, Wu Yong knew this wasn't something he should be considering. Bowing his head, Wu Yong said, "I understand."
"And you."
Li Chen looked at Wu Yong and said calmly, "After this, General Wu Ban will keep in touch with you. He will let you know how to cooperate, but he won't make things too difficult for you. At least before King Ning falls, your life and death are still in his hands. You can rest assured about that."
Wuyong was moved. From this sentence, he could feel that Lichen had no intention of getting rid of him after using him. So he trembled and said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your understanding."
Ignoring Wu Yong, Li Chen turned to Wu Ban Shan and asked, "In your opinion, what will Yelü Shenxuan do after learning this news"
Wu Ban Shan pondered for a moment, his eyes gradually brightening as he said, "He'll be desperate enough to do anything!"Chapter 1426: The Hidden Worries Brought by the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun
