318 The Bai (1/2)
The plan Jun Hua proposed could only be categorized as crazy. The commanders in the tent were all looking at Jun Hua like she could no longer think straight. Even Yan couldn't believe that Jun Hua would propose such an outrageous plan.
”I cannot agree at such a plan where your safety would be put into risk,” one of the generals said in a grave tone. If something were to happen to her during the time Soujin was unconscious, that general would surely butcher them.
”There is no need to worry. Princess Hua will be safe under our watch,” Yabei said solemnly. Inside his mind, he was sure that Jun Hua would be alright since she could protect herself.
”But….”
”Although this plan might sound courageous, this is the best I can come up with,” if her deduction was correct, even Prince Ye Jiu didn't know that she was Jun Min. That one ignorance was enough to give her a chance in beating him down. Of course, if he knew that she was Jun Min, this plan would be more difficult to succeed, but the chance was still there.
”Can't you think a more moderate plan?”
”We will do with this plan,” Ming Hui interrupted, ”Going conservatively would only end in our loss. That is except you want to repeat the last few days lost again with greater damage.”
The commanders looked at each other. No matter how unwilling they were, they knew that this was the best option they could have. If they didn't, they would just sacrifice the life of numerous soldiers they have.
”We understand.”
After the commanders dispersed, Yan stood up and look towards Jun Hua, ”Are you sure that you want to use yourself as the bait?”
Jun Hua glanced back, ”Why not?”
”Are you sure that you can do this?” putting herself into danger, despite being protected, the risk would not just disappear like that.
”Don't worry. You just have to do your part well, Prince Yan. Don't make the same mistake as before,” Jun Hua stood up and walked out. Outside the tent, Ming Hui nodded towards her with a knowing smile. He believed that she would be able to do this work perfectly. If not because of that, what was the use of the famous name she had as the general?
”Take care of yourself.”
”You too,” Jun Hua answered. Returning back to her room, she looked towards the armor she put on the side. When was the last time she wore it? Touching it for a moment, she sighed. The time has come for her to participate in the battle once again.
The next day, the soldiers were all eager to fight. Their commander only told them their role today, but didn't say anything about the bigger picture of the fight. Because of that, they didn't know the big plan their strategist planned for them.
”Commander, why are you spacing out?”
Fan Lanying was startled, but she shook her head quickly. When Jun Hua finished her explanation about the plan for today, she was shocked senseless. The plan to use Jun Hua as the bait to force Ye Jiu to change his plan was really outrageous. However, if they succeed, the battle will be theirs.
Taking a deep breath, Fan Lanying looked towards her comrade, ”Let's move on. We cannot disgrace ourselves with poor performance after all that we said yesterday, can we?”
”Yes, Commander!”
