Chapter 1376 - 1376: The Yueming Emperor Won I t Dispatch His Troops
Time passed quickly.
The Zhanling Emperor had already sent several groups of people to demand the 10 cities from Zhan Beiye. However, they returned empty-handed.
On top of that, every minister who left Zhan Beiye’s residence either lost an arm or a leg or was beaten up so badly that they were barely recognizable.
The anger burning in the Zhanling Emperor’s heart could reduce the entire empire to ashes.
The army was ready to set off.
However, none of the generals from the Zhanling Empire dared to lead the army out. The generals appointed by the Zhanling Emperor either fell ill or became crippled the next day.
The Zhanling Emperor intended to punish these cowards, but their illnesses and disabilities were real.
There was nothing he could do. He could not accuse them of pretense because it would only make him sick from anger.
However, he had to fight this battle. Zhan Beiye had to be punished, and the 10 cities he had conquered had to belong to Zhanling Empire.
Hence, the Zhanling Emperor still sent Zhan Beixiao, who had already been taught a lesson by Zhan Beiye, and many deputy generals to assist him. Zhan Beixiao was in a miserable state. He did not want to fight Zhan Beiye head-on.
However, he had no choice. He could not learn from those generals and cripple himself, so he could only brace himself and fight.
The army would arrive at the border in half a month.
In the City Lord Residence, Zhan Beiye was telling Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue about the interesting events in Zhanling Empire.
“So Zhanling Empire’s army is about to attack?” Qian Jiyun concluded.
“Something like that.” Zhan Beiye nodded.
“So? Why are you still here?” Qian Jiyun asked.
“To accompany you. What else am I supposed to do?” Zhan Beiye asked Qian
Jiyun. “Don’t tell me you think I’m afraid of that spineless Zhan Beixiao?”
It would have been fine if someone else had led the troops; he did not care about Zhan Beixiao. That guy would be especially afraid of whoever beat him Perhaps once he arrived with the army, Zhan Beiye would end up recruiting a large number of troops under his command.
“Yueming Empire must have received the news too, right?” Qian Jiyun reminded him.
Zhan Beiye’s expression turned serious.
“I expected this long ago, but the Yueming Emperor won’t dispatch his troops,” he said with certainty.
“As long as you can be sure.”
Qian Jiyun fought on the battlefields frequently. He knew it would not be easy for an emperor to dispatch troops.
Yueming Empire had just suffered a defeat. They had lost 10 cities and most of their morale. It would be impossible for the Yueming Emperor to send troops or form an alliance with Zhanling Empire now.
However, he could not guarantee that the Yueming Emperor would not grit his teeth and do it.
“This bottle of Cloud-Breaking Pills is for you. Make good use of it.” He gave the Cloud-Breaking Pills, which he had never used, to Zhan Beiye to help him.
“Cloud-Breaking Pills? You have something so good?”
Zhan Beiye’s eyes lit up when he heard the words “Cloud-Breaking Pill”. He glanced at An Jiuyue, who was refining pills nearby, and then at the porcelain bottle in his hand..
