“Keep running, sometimes having more people is a good thing, it can tell people where we are!” Ye Lang said with a smile.

“Huh?? It’s considered good for people to know where we are?” Everyone was confused, no matter how you looked at the issue, it should be a bad thing.

“They only know where we are, they don’t know what our next step will be, there will be opportunities to shake them all off!” Ye Lang smiled and said.

Ye Lang’s words perked up some of the people present. These people were well-versed in military maneuvers and warfare and came from prestigious military families. As long as they were given an impetus, they could all produce stratagems to implement it.

“Then what do you plan on doing?” Ye Chengtian started smiling, but his smile was different from Ye Lang’s. His was a smile of gratification.

“I don’t know!” Ye Lang very bluntly said.

“You don’t know? What does that mean?” Ye Chengtian froze, his gratified smile also disappeared.

“It doesn’t mean anything, I just don’t know! These matters were best left to you guys from the start. I’m not familiar with the Empire’s troop deployments so I have no way to develop countermeasures!” Ye Lang bit into one of Zhen Xiaoyan’s pastries and replied irresponsibly.

“…..” The onlookers immediately went silent.

Truly, it was hard to describe this brat, even at this time he was still messing around. He was perfectly fine without knowing anything, but his suggestions were still interesting and were outside of everyone’s expectations.

And in truth, Ye Lang really didn’t know, he wasn’t familiar with these things. He didn’t even know the route they were taking, yet he was being asked what to do. On the other hand, the other people were practically all important figures in the Empire who knew the entirety of the Empire like the back of their hand.

Know yourself, know your enemy, and you need not fear the result of a hundred battles, I’m sure everyone understands this!

(TL: Quoting Sun Tzu I think)

“In truth, right now is when we should be stepping up. With so many of us here, are we really all relying on Ye Lang by himself?” Ye Yi looked at his sons and grandsons. He did not wish for a single genius. He wished for each of his descendants to have excellent abilities.

And right now was the time to bring out their hidden potential. Even if a price had to be paid, it was fine. As long as they grew from the experience, it would be worth it!

“Thirteenth just reminded me, I thought of a stratagem, as long as it’s used correctly we can smoothly escape this predicament!” The Ye family’s Third young master spoke up.

This Third young master of the Ye family was a terrifying genius in the arts of war who was well known for his excellent stratagems. He was also a general who commanded a large army in the Soaring Sky Empire and he turned 33 this year.

“Speak!” Ye Yi clearly and simply said.

“Let’s first…..” The Ye family’s Third young master started to explain his stratagem. Afterwards, Ye Lang felt even more strongly that his decision had been correct. If it was him, even if he thought until his head hurt, he wouldn’t be able to come up with a stratagem like this.

And to think of this clever stratagem in a short time, he definitely was a genius.

The various parts of the stratagem were closely linked and used some special circumstances of the Empire, even using the Empire’s troops to help them!

No matter how fast the news traveled, there would always be a time lag, as well as moments of uncertainty. Thus, when certain objectives were completed, they could be used to lead towards a secondary hidden goal!
