Chapter 1062 - Anticipating and Preparing (1/2)

“Kong Yao is really careful when using troops and sneak attacked many times. She never leaves one a chance to attack her. I am useless and to crush her in a month and a half is impossible.”

Feiyin was dejected. During these few days, he was anxious. Unlike before when he looked down on Kong Yao.

During these few dozen days, this girl whom he saw as an average general had given him a huge beating.

“However, she needs a good ruler to show off her capabilities. Like how a good sword needs to be in the hands of a top swordsman to show off its absolute sharpness! If it falls into the hands of a normal person, it would only be slightly sharper than common iron. This Kong Yao is serving a preposterous and unruly ruler.”

Everyone frowned, they were all confused and didn’t know what Feiyin meant.

Feiyin continued, “Kong Yao led millions of troops and had a tough battle with us north of Min River. While this Zong Shou was in the Jiuchi Palace thousands of miles away out having fun, having feasts every day and snatching tribal teens to satisfy his urges. I really feel bad for this Kong Yao. She really lowered her own value, marrying to such a ruler…”

Everyone shook their heads, what was the use in saying all of this? Since he had a top commander like Kong Yao, Zong Shou could have fun at the back without worries. That was something everyone envied.

In the end, it was Yinyu who messed up, sending this future pillar of Great Shang over to become Zong Shou’s concubine.

Looking at it now, it was like sticking a fresh flower onto a pile of shit.

Looking at the impatient expression on Yinyu’s face, he stopped his words and went to the main topic, “We actually didn’t need to forcefully attack and just required to wait for a few months. That Great Gan Ruler would have been in chaos all on its own because of what their ruler is doing. Because Zong Shou snatched the girls of the south barbarian tribes, they would’ve gotten mad sooner or later. Our Great Shang could have won without fighting. However, Your Majesty is wise, you wouldn’t be able to see them suffer, not wanting war on people of the Great Shang is why we have to end it quick. Thinking about it, the only way is to capture the king!”

“Capture the king?”

Yinyu’s face turned into a smile. He could hear the respect in his tone. The words he said was exactly what he wanted.

They truly didn’t want to drag on for too long. Those barbarian people had nothing to do with him, but if they continued being here, they would have to add taxes. He had to be really careful with this whole matter.

When he heard those words, he was tempted.

“You want to toss aside everything and sneak attack the palace?!”

The moment he said this, the eyes of everyone in the room lit up. Especially those generals who were deep in thought.

“Your Majesty is wise, I do have such intentions!”

Feiyin smiled, his expression becoming more and more respectful. “The Common People’s Path’s Seven Swords and Great Gan as a country depend solely on Zong Shou. If he dies, then everything will be solved! I also know that there are large amounts of grain near Jiuchi Palace. If we obtain it, it can feed our Great Shang for two months! At that point, all dangers will be solved easily.”

Yinyu suddenly stood up, he was already really tempted. However, he still had some doubts that weren’t solved.

“Min River is at least two thousand and seven hundred kilometers away from Jiuchi Palace.”

The person who spoke was a Taoist, although his aura was innate, no different from normal people, he was actually a Saint Realm Venerable.

“Since Kong Yao is careful, a long-distance siege is impossible. How can we directly attack them? At just ten miles away, they will be able to notice us.”

“The Blood Sword Monster Lord isn’t a dead person. His sword techniques are strong and his movements are quick too! If he sees that the situation is not good, wouldn’t he just flee?”

Yinyu looked towards Feiyin, waiting for him to reply. What these few people said didn’t erase the doubts in his heart.

“How is that even hard? The Taoist Faction has the Thousand Mile Movement Armor Technique, while the Demon Sect has the Demon Space Hidden God Technique. We can teleport the troops two thousand and eight hundred miles!”

With those words, the experts’ faces all changed. Although the Thousand Mile Movement Armor Technique had such an ability, because it consumed large amounts of resources, the Taoist Faction wouldn’t easily use it.

Moreover, Zong Shou had the World Burning Blood Eyes and the World Burning Blood which could lock down space. If they wanted to achieve a proper result, they would need dozens of Saint Realms to join hands and even harm their own souls.

Feiyin continued confidently, “As for how to prevent Zong Shou from escaping is really simple. With the power of the three factions, one space sealing formation isn’t tough. If you are all willing to sacrifice something to succeed then even if he has the Lu Family World Burning Blood, you can still trap and kill him!”

“That is too optimistic! Even if my Taoist Faction has the Thousand Mile Movement Armor Technique, the Common People’s Path has the Space Crossing Technique that could teleport a hundred thousand troops instantly.”

“Zong Shou is a fox and has always been cunning. If Jiuchi Palace is indeed a trap—I am saying what if… then what should we do?”

“Then we should at least teleport eight hundred thousand elites! All of the Dao Soldiers have to go all-out!”

Feiyin’s expression grew increasingly brighter as he became more and more confident.

“The problem we are facing is that we can’t face Kong Yao head on! With these eight hundred thousand troops, no matter whether or not Kong Yao could teleport her elites over. No matter if this palace is a trap or not, our eight hundred thousand troops will be able to smash it!”

Yinyu was completely enlightened, a look of praise appeared on his face. This plan could work and it was the only way to break through the entire situation.

It was okay if they didn’t use the Common People’s Path’s Space Crossing Technique, if they did, then forcing Kong Yao to fight to the death at Jiuchi Palace was a good decision too.

However, at this moment, he didn’t say a word, he simply sat back down and waited.

To teleport a hundred thousand troops in a thousand miles, the Great Shang would be able to use the resources to provide for a Saint Realm Venerable for fifty years.
