Vol 6 Chapter 28 (2/2)

“Yuan Shu took the initiative and accepted the call to arms, why is that?”

“Probably as repentance for what she did before. Declaring herself Emperor in Wan city incurred the ire of the ma.s.ses and now that she has rejoined the Imperial Court, she is probably planning to repay it through service.”

Of course, I don’t think Yuan Shu is doing this of her own accord, and Yuan Shao probably pushed her to do so. She probably plans to install another ally in Yuan Shu in Court to help her in her future battles against me in Court.

“Yuan Shu is young and lacks capability. It was clear in her battle against Sun Ce in Wan city that her ability to command is lacking. Should we really be depending on her in the upcoming battle?” Cao Ren said as she lay down lazily on the horse’s mane. How could she feel comfortable even with such a steep angle?

“Yuan Shu’s capabilities may be lacking, but those 2 who serve her are more than capable enough.”

Like that Yan Xiang girl for instance, she has quite a bit of foresight when approaching problems. Ben Chu has also loaned out Tian Feng and Ju Shou to Yuan Shu for this expedition. If I haven’t guessed wrongly, then Tian Feng and Ju Shou must have been the ones who got Yuan Shu to take the long route around.

Never mind, let’s leave the other side for now…

“Ren, do you know where Feng Xiao is?”

Ren turned to me while still lying on the horse and shook her head, “Lord Guo Jia is pus.h.i.+ng herself too much. She shouldn’t have come.”

“Perhaps she feels that this battle is too important and wants to witness it for herself.”

I understand how Feng Xiao feels but it is because I understand that I wish she didn’t came. Right now, Feng Xiao is somewhere in the main body and secretly directing the troop movements through Jia Xu, which is why there have been no problems so far which have reached my ears.

Feng Xiao, don’t you dare collapse from this.

Die!!!!

Just then, intense bays for blood came from the side and I immediately put my guard up as I looked to the left.

“Big sis! The Wuhuan cavalry are charging over from a safe route in the marshlands!”

What! The enemy knows a safe route in the marshes? d.a.m.n it, they now have the geographical advantage!

“Prepare for battle!” Yuan Rang’s anxious order could be heard from the main body.
