Chapter 738: Wait Until Tomorrow!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The sky began to turn lighter at dawn.

In the Liang city barracks, Crown Prince Yu and Zhen Guogong had been waiting inside the tent for updates ever since Lou Qianxue had left with the group of soldiers.

Every once in a while, Zhen Guogong would leave the tent to ask, “Have Miss Lou and the rest returned?”

Each time, he would end up disappointed.

At the third watch of the night, movements were suddenly detected in the army.

The Li Brothers, Li Wen and Li Wu, came to report. The Nandu Nation army was in a ruckus, and it seemed like Lou Qianxue and her squad had been discovered!

The Tian Zhao army momentarily fell into silence, and a commotion quickly broke out.

Soon after, all the Tian Zhao commanders rushed to Crown Prince’s tent.

Zhen Guogong and the Chu Army faction, Liu Mansheng and the Liu Army faction, the Li brothers, and the commanders of the 20,000-strong troop gathered inside the tent.

“It was supposed to be a secret mission… Since they have been discovered, they probably won’t return alive!”

“I think so, too! Our Tian Zhao army has only 700,000 soldiers, but the Nandu Nation has a million! It’s tough for our 700,000 soldiers to fight one million enemies to begin with… And how many people does Lou Qianxue’s group have? Sixteen?”

“Sigh!” Liu Mansheng hypocritically sighed. “Miss Lou may be beautiful, but she’s still young. Moreover, it’s her first time on the battlefield… She should’ve taken it slow, but because of a petty spat, she…”

Zhen Guogong’s face became as cold as ice. “Shut up! The outcome is not out yet. General Liu, it’s far too early for you to say this! If the outcome is different from what you imagine, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?”

“Ha!” Liu Mansheng snorted and turned quiet.

However, the commanders behind him could not refrain from speaking, “It’s the first time for both Crown Prince and Lou Qianxue to participate in a war, but it’s not your first time, Zhen Guogong! If you had persuaded Crown Prince in the beginning, things wouldn’t have turned out this way! Lou Qianxue’s life may be inconsequential, but each Chu Army soldier is an elite! However, their lives were lost so easily. What a waste!”

Zhen Guogong’s body shook from the rage. “It’s none of your business whether people from my Chu family die or live!”

“Ha, Zhen Guogong, is the Chu Army not part of our Tian Zhao army? Both of us are generals of Tian Zhao. I’m concerned about the lives and deaths of Tian Zhao soldiers. Is that wrong?”

“!” The tent fell into silence. This time, even Chu Pengcheng and the other Chu Army commanders looked upset.

“You!” Zhen Guogong’s face turned red. That was not what I meant at all! I was just too mad and misworded that sentence…

Crown Prince Yu’s handsome face looked a little tired. “Enough! I believe in Lou Qianxue. Let’s wait.”

The tent became quiet.

Displeasure flashed across Liu Mansheng’s eyes. “Seems like the Crown Prince refuses to acknowledge the issue unless you see the coffin! But…”

He snickered and looked at Crown Prince Yu. “Your Royal Highness, you said to wait. Then, how long should we wait? We can’t possibly keep waiting if they never come back, right?”

“That’s right! The Nandu Nation army has probably killed them already!” another commander muttered.

Swish!

Crown Prince Yu’s frosty gaze instantly fell on that commander.

The commander felt a chill run down his spine, and he immediately fell silent.

Crown Prince Yu frigidly looked at Liu Mansheng. “Wait until tomorrow. If they do not return by then, the mission to destroy the opponent’s food supplies would be considered a failure.”

Liu Mansheng snickered to himself. If the Nandu Nation army can’t capture those 16 people even after receiving the information I sent to them, they would be too stupid.

He put up a wistful expression and looked at Crown Prince Yu. “Sigh! Your Royal Highness, His Majesty appointed you as the general this time.. We want to obey you too, but Your Royal Highness is so reckless… You committed such a grave mistake in your first time here at the barracks… We truly don’t feel comfortable entrusting such a huge authority in your hands… if Lou Qianxue and her squad fail in the end, please do not blame me for stripping Your Royal Highness of your authority here.”
