General Shang snorted. "We covered a wide area. The valley is the fastest route to go deeper into our territory, so I will be heading there to intercept if there's anyone who want to take the shortcut."

"Will they take such obvious trap?" General Jue was not convinced.

"Who would miss out on such a clear route?" General Shang was too lazy to argue with this annoying new general. He had more experience when it came to big battle, so General Shang knew that it would be impossible for them not to use this route.

Were they planning on using the hard route and make trouble for themselves?

It would be better to use two routes at the same time and take the opportunity to step forward as much as possible.

"Then I…"

"You can roam around in the forest." General Shang snorted. "I'm leaving Commander Bin on the headquarter. He can defend it and take note if there are any army going closer to any of us."

General Jue thought of Commander Bin, who was one of the few famous archers in Zhang Xu Kingdom. With him guarding the headquarter, they would be feel saver as he could protect it even from a distance.

As for the problem of close distance?

There were also other commanders who could take that role.

"Got it."

General Shang looked at General Jue. "Don't mess up or you will not be able to handle the consequences."

General Jue snorted and turned around.

The two of them were both arrogant and if not for this sudden battle, they would not be arranged together. But now that Zhang Xu Kingdom was facing attack from 2 directions coupled with the internal problem, they have to make use of all the available manpower.

No matter how much they didn't like this arrangement, they could only stay silent.

…

The battle against Prime Minister Lei had been going on stalemate for some time. Aside from a few clashes and a lot of soldiers' death, there hadn't been much progress. However, Great General Wei was very patient.

He knew that there was no need to rush.

When it was time, they could win the battle as long as they were patience enough.

"General Wei, His Majesty had arrived."

General Wei paused in his movement and turned around. He nodded at the messenger and walked out. This was one of the few variables that he himself didn't expect, but he will follow the arrangement.

"General Wei greets His Majesty, the Emperor. Long life Your Majesty." General Wei knelt on the ground the moment Emperor Yang Zhou arrived.

"Rise. You don't have to welcome me so grandly." Emperor Yang Zhou purposely didn't mention the matters of his arrival so grandly. What he wanted was to observe the battle with his own eyes and watched the battle that had been going on for a long period of time unfolded right in front of his eyes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." General Wei stood up but he still lowered his head. He didn't dare to look in Emperor Yang Zhou's direction directly.

"I hope that my arrival will not disturb your plan."

"Your Majesty, your arrival will not disturb my plan." General Wei instead had thought of several other plans that could make use of Emperor Yang Zhou's presence. But he didn't say those words out loud because he still had to review these plans one by one to find out whether they were feasible or not.

No matter what, he couldn't afford to put the Emperor in danger.

"Good." Emperor Yang Zhou looked out of the window at the battle. He was not a person who had never seen war. Because of many matters, he had already participated in various battles in person.

Tempered by the harsh battle and steel blades, he was not just a small canary raised in the cage.

"Your Majesty, will you assume the command?" General Wei asked in a low voice carefully.

"Not for now." Emperor Yang Zhou didn't want to foolishly took control of the things before seeing how things unfolded here.

He was not such a stupid person to think that he was invincible. Years of fighting at the court where his life hover between life and death had taught him not to underestimate anyone.

Without understanding the situation, he would not make any reckless move.

"Proceed as how you would be without my presence." Emperor Yang Zhou's eyes narrowed. "I will watch for the time being."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

General Wei cupped his fist and excused himself before walking out of the room. He looked at the direction of Zhang Xu Kingdom as his eyes narrowed. With the presence of Emperor Yang Zhou, the soldiers' morale will definitely rise.

They were fighting alongside the Emperor, who would think that such an honor would fall to them?

But it was not the time to announce this yet.

Prime Minister Lei is a very cunning person.

If he showed his card without preparation, it was estimated that Prime Minister Lei would instead take this chance to assassinate Emperor Yang Zhou.

'It's a dangerous bet for him to come here.' General Wei walked along the corridor, his steps were light.

But he liked this kind of dangerous bet.

The higher the stake, the more interesting things would be.

It didn't take long for General Wei to return to his own residence while assigning a few people for some important tasks. The security was one of the highest importance as the Emperor is here.

Nothing wrong should happen.

Knock! Knock!

"General Wei, First Young Commander Wei and Second Young Commander Wei are here."

"Let them in." General Wei raised his head and saw his first son, Wei Mu Bai and first daughter, Wei Mu Ya.

"Father," the two of them greeted hurriedly.

"What brings you two here, Mu Bai, Mu Ya?" General Wei asked, his tone was as indifferent as ever.
