Chapter 350: The Arrangemen (1/2)

All the hundred-men captains nodded repeatedly and felt that Pei Rumo’s arrangement was extremely reasonable.

Of course, there will definitely be confusion among the captains. One of them asked, “What if Your First Highness fails to send a messenger pigeon? How should we make our report?”

“Impossible. I will definitely send a messenger pigeon regardless of the situation.” Pei Rumo replied quickly to reassure the captains.

“What if an emergency happens?” The captain continued to ask.

Pei Rumo wasn’t annoyed at all as the captain had served him for a long time. He knew that the captain was a prudent man and his questions all made sense. Pei Rumo was actually happy that he was able to think so far ahead.

“That is indeed possible...” Pei Rumo nodded and said, “If an emergency happens, leave the Desolate Region and never come back.”

“What does Your First Highness mean?” The hundred-men captain didn’t understand Pei Rumo’s instruction. After all, the original Pei Rumo would rather die in battle than to retreat.

“If we fail to send messenger pigeons, leave the Desolate Region. If that were to happen, it would mean that the entire vanguard team has been killed in the central region. It would also mean that fleeing is the smartest choice.”

Pei Rumo spoke calmly as though it was no big deal for him to die in the central region. The captains were frightened stiff and they turned to look at Bai Luochu with pale faces. It seemed like they were waiting for Bai Luochu to persuade the First Prince against acting recklessly.

Bai Luochu sensed the gazes from the captains and quickly mediated the situation, “Everyone doesn’t have to worry. I will be there as well. I will definitely stop His First Highness from risking his life.”

The hundred-men captains gradually relaxed after hearing Bai Luochu’s promise.

Bai Luochu glared at Pei Rumo before speaking, “I already prepared all the elixirs we might require during the trip. I will check again and ensure that we have enough medicine for the soldiers staying behind. As for the medicinal effect and the dosage to consume, I have already put the labels on the bottles. Retrieve it from my tent if you need anything. If anyone suffers from a serious illness, write a detailed report about the symptoms in your report. I might return to provide emergency treatment if the situation calls for it.”
