C154 Requesting to Make a Move
"However, even if Zhao Hu is trapped, there is still a Third Stage warrior in Qifeng Country. The rest of us won't be able to fight him. According to our initial plan... We want to use a few Second Stage warriors to stall him, and then use the strength of our soldiers to decide the outcome of the battle. "
Yang Xuan nodded, agreeing in his heart.
This was indeed a relatively better method. If the highest combat strength was removed, the Chiang Country might be able to fight it.
Speaking up to this point, he also understood Emperor Chiang's plan. Obviously, he wanted him to fight the Early Third Stage from the Qifeng Country.
Yang Xuan lowered his head and thought carefully, and his eyes sparkled.
If he agreed to Emperor Chiang's request, it would mean that he would become the enemy of the Qifeng Country. He might have to face a lot of trouble in the future.
"Mr Yang, this matter was decided after a strict discussion. There is basically no possibility of miscalculation. So, you don't have to worry about anything else. As long as you..."
"King Chiang."
Yang Xuan raised his hand and stopped Emperor Chiang from continuing.
"I have yet to agree. This matter will have a huge impact on me. You should know that if I attack, it doesn't matter whether I can defeat the opponent or not. I will lose something. In short, I will definitely become a great enemy of Qifeng Country in the future. "
He wasn't a fool. This battle wasn't as simple as dragging one person into it. If he won, he would have to help the Chiang Country clean up the Second Stage warriors. Otherwise, even if the Chiang Country won, it would still be a miserable victory.
Under such circumstances, it was equivalent to offending the Qifeng Country to death. If he were to stay here for a long time, there would be endless troubles.
Most importantly, Emperor Chiang had said that he could only trap that Mid Third Stage warrior. Once the war was over, if they held a grudge against him and found him, the consequences would be even more severe.
He didn't want to be hunted down by a Mid Third Stage warrior.
Emperor Chiang was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Yang Xuan to be so direct and thorough in his analysis.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Mr Yang, I won't let you fight in vain. Regardless of whether you succeed or not, I will give you a satisfactory reward."
"Although our Chiang Country is only a small country, the capital is located in a strange vein of the heaven and earth. There are still a few rare spiritual herbs. If Mr Yang is willing to participate in this battle, we can discuss the matter of the grade three spiritual herbs."
"Grade three spiritual herbs?"
Yang Xuan raised his eyebrows and hesitated for a moment.
"King Chiang, this matter is of great importance. Please give me two days to think about it. How about it?"
"This... Mr Yang, if you have any requests, you can tell me. This matter is extremely important to Chiang Country. As long as you can help, the reward will not be small."
Emperor Chiang said with a serious expression.
Yang Xuan nodded and stood up. He cupped his fist and bowed. After that, he slowly left the side hall.
...
The next day, in the main hall of Chiang Country.
The war with Qifeng Country was imminent. All the officials were discussing the war with serious expressions. Emperor Chiang sat alone at the head of the hall, deep in thought.
The officials were having a heated discussion, but he had no intention of discussing it. After saying a few words, he ended the morning assembly and went to another main hall.
"These guys are all stupid! There are actually people who want to reconcile. "
Emperor Chiang went into the main hall and coldly harrumphed, his expression turning ugly.
He didn't inform the minister of his own plan. Thus, in their eyes, this war could be said to be a defeat without a doubt.
Apart from a few people who were discussing their chances of winning, the rest were mostly thinking about how to reconcile.
To them, an intermediate Third Stage was like an insurmountable mountain.
Emperor Chiang's face showed some irritation as he paced back and forth in the hall. After a while, he suddenly turned around and shouted, "Someone, go and invite Elder Zhuang and Old Li. Tell them that I have something to discuss with them."
"Yes."
A father-in-law answered in a low voice, then quickly ran out.
Not long after, the two Third Stage High Officials arrived in the main hall.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
The two old men bowed slightly to show their respect.
"There is no need to be so polite, reverends."
Emperor Chiang did not mind. He nodded and walked down to stand in front of the two.
"All of you, get out."
He glanced around and waved his hand with a solemn expression.
The soldiers and eunuch standing guard at both sides of the hall bowed and left.
After confirming that there were only three of them left in the hall, Emperor Chiang looked at the two of them and said with a solemn expression, "Officials, how are the preparations for that matter?"
"Replying to Your Majesty, it will take another day."
Elder Zhuang replied, while Elder Li was still wrapped in a black robe and did not say a word.
"One more day?" Emperor Chiang muttered and nodded. "It's good that you can catch up. When the time comes, are the two of you confident? This matter is very important, and we can't afford to be careless."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I have already checked several times. As long as we can lure that Zhao Hu out, we will definitely be able to trap him for two days."
"Besides, once he breaks free, his level of cultivation will drop drastically, and he won't be able to participate in the battle for a short period of time. Hehe."
Elder Li's gloomy voice sounded and added.
Emperor Chiang's face was filled with joy. "Good! If that's really the case, it would naturally be for the best. At that time, as long as we force Qifeng Country to surrender, our Chiang Country won't need to worry for a short period of time."
The pressure of the war had squeezed the entire Chiang Country out of breath. Now that there was hope of turning the tables, it was difficult for him to suppress his joy.
"But... Your Majesty, Fellow Daoist Yang..."
Elder Zhuang asked worriedly.
Even though they had trapped Zhao Hu, there was still a Third Stage warrior in Qifeng Country. If they followed the original plan and used a Second Stage warrior to fill in the gap, not only would they suffer a great loss, but their chances of winning would also be low.
"This... Mr Yang said that he still needed some time to think about it."
Emperor Chiang smiled bitterly and looked outside the hall. "Although he is young, he has an excellent temperament and deep thoughts. With just a few words, he has thoroughly analyzed this matter."
"If he refuses to help, we..."
"Don't worry. Zhen has already made up his mind. If it really doesn't work, even if I have to sacrifice some spiritual herbs, I will still need to ask him to help."
A trace of confidence appeared on Emperor Chiang's face.
The capital of Chiang Country was where the four mountains and rivers were gathered. The reason why the Spiritual Force was not visible in the country was because it was gathered underground.
