104 The price of having an affair (1/2)

It had taken more time than the generals promised the King it would, but the soldiers they sent out finally came back after two days.

And along with them, they brought back two pieces of bad news.

One, they couldn't enter the capital city due to which none of their spies could come out either.

Two, the Bai Kingdom's army was already on the move.

Indeed, due to being ready and excited to take down the Zhu Kingdom, the soldiers were all very excited and finished all the preparations faster than usual.

Thus, in less than twelve hours after Bai Long sent the word, Cao Ning had the army ready and sent them off along with the Yin Puppet Generals Sun Hai, and Cao Hai leading them.

After that, she and Linxin surprisingly didn't leave the Bai Kingdom to go near Bai Long, and instead stayed back.

It ass because the other Kingdoms despite being further away, could use this opportunity to attack them.

Therefore, Bai Long told them to stay back and hold down the fort, since they knew where the traps were laid out, and how to activate them.

As for the upcoming war, Bai Long would take care of it all.

....

Hearing the news which the soldiers who were sent to bring the spies back brought with them, Zhu Zemin hit the throne so hard that an impression of his fist formed on it.

Other than this, the unease and regret he was feeling also increased.

Why did he have to listen to those headstrong idiots and say that he would go to war?

Fuck!

Should he just take the treasure and escape?

As Zhu Zemin was having such thoughts, one of his generals stood up and said, ”Your Majesty, even if our spies haven't come back I'm still sure that we can win this war.”

”Continue.”

Nodding his head, the general continued to hastily explain.

”According to what the soldiers who came back told me, the army which has left the Bai Kingdom has around 250,000 soldiers. And in them, less than 50,000 are Martial Soldiers.”

”In comparison to them, our army has 400,000 soldiers and 80,000 Martial Soldiers.”

”No matter how many tricks and traps they use, I'm sure that we can still completely crush them, your Majesty. ”

”As for the chances of every one of their soldiers possessing those special and weird combat techniques like the one who escaped from us did, I highly doubt that.”

Nodding his head and realizing that maybe he was worried too much for nothing, Zhu Zemin said, ”Given the time their army set out, where are they right now.”

”Since so many soldiers need to march, carry all the necessary items, rest during the night so they don't get tired, they must be around three days of walk away from reaching us here.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Once again nodding his head, Zhu Zemin started making some quick calculations and guessed that even if his army lost, he'd have enough time to take the treasure and escape.

After that, as long as he'd be able to figure out how that mysterious treasure works, Zhu Zemin was confident in rising back up and taking revenge.
