Zhao Qinglan are at odds and have poured all their thoughts into themselves. It seems that the palace intrigue attribute has also begun to awaken.What was said just now seemed perfectly fine, but it...Chapter 1827: Strategy to Damage the Enemy

A moment later, a corner of the central army camp.

Surrounded by soldiers in a hurry, they rush to their destinations under the orders of their superiors. Some head to the front lines, some provide flank support, some handle logistics, and others conduct reconnaissance. The majority are there for protection.

After all, the central army is the most important. Although it is unlikely that the Liao army will be able to break through the encirclement and defense on both wings and directly approach, there is no guarantee that there won't be a surprise attack by elite troops.

The art of war is deception.

Wu Qingcang would not be so careless about such details as to suffer a heavy loss.

The front lines were abuzz with booming explosions and muffled cries of battle, making Wulong Mountain a hive of activity even in the darkness.

Li Chen didn't hide anything and told Huangji Tian everything that had happened in his fiefdom.

"Based on the current situation, what he said is highly likely to be true."

Li Chen frowned and looked at Huangji Tian. He thought he would see a similarly solemn face, but instead, Huangji Tian's expression was more gloating than serious and cautious.

"What's with that expression" Li Chen asked.

Huángjí Tiānhá háhá laughed: "First time seeing you stumble, that's fresh."

Li Chen understood and said with displeasure, "I'm human, not a god. How could I possibly be perfect To tell you the truth, I overestimated the person I arranged to go there. He's incompetent."

"If it was truly the Duke of Ning's plan devised before his death, even if you went there yourself, the ending would be the same. Besides, you are not someone who cares about gains and losses. The most troublesome thing now should be how to handle the aftermath, right" asked Huangji Tian.

Shaking his head, Li Chen said frankly, "There's no way to make amends."

Huangji Tian was taken aback and said, "Even if it's damage control afterward, it's better late than never. You just let it go Although you may have stumbled once, it's normal for people to make mistakes... "

"No."

Li Chen sighed, "It's not that I'm being stubborn, but the worst possible outcome has already happened. Instead of wasting energy trying to reverse or change it, it's better to find ways to deal with the series of consequences this bad result brings."

Huangji Tian immediately understood Li Chen's meaning and asked in a deep voice, "Are you talking about the Liao army"

"It's the Liao army."

Li Chen said in a deep voice, “Dealing with the Liao army is the root of solving all problems. Everything we have done before was out of helplessness due to the disparity in strength between our forces and theirs. Although these tactics didn’t benefit us directly, as long as they could inflict damage on the enemy, it meant narrowing this gap. If both sides were evenly matched, we wouldn't have to put in so much effort. Killing King Ning was a decision I made after much deliberation.”

"The fundamental basis for this decision is my judgment that if King Ning were alive, with the impending decisive battle, he would have a high probability of defecting to the Liao army. Rather than waiting for the moment when he might betray us, it's better to proactively eliminate the threat. Though painful, it's preferable to being caught off guard."

"The bomb is gone now, but the pain it caused was worse than I anticipated. This led to a boost in Liao's army before the war, diminishing the effect of my carefully laid plans for inflicting heavy casualties."

But regardless, the Liao army came. The decisive battle had reached Wulong Mountain. Yelü Shenxuan came with a victory assured, ready to overthrow me at my doorstep. I could retreat no further, nor did I need to. This battle, we fight it to the end.

At this, Li Chen looked at Huangji Tian, whose expression was gradually becoming serious, and said: "Your 300,000 army has finally reached the place where it can truly be put to use." carrying a few simple gifts.Zhao Rui smiled seductively and said softly, "It's not necessary. I'm just going back to visit my parents, not doing anything important. A few gifts wouldn't be appropriat...
