Faced with Chen Feng’s direct rebuke, Qin Tian was stunned, feeling his face burning slightly.

He spoke up for justice, simply for the good of the City Guard Army, but unexpectedly, Chen Feng didn’t listen at all.

He felt despair, and at the same time, another desire to grasp power emerged in his heart.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Qin Tian nodded, ”This subordinate takes his leave.”

After speaking, Qin Tian left the military meeting tent with Zhao Lanjin.

”You see, this is the consequence of speaking up. They’re all powerholders, selfish, and won’t consider such matters. However, don’t be too upset; at least we can see things clearly and prepare in advance.”

Outside the tent, Zhao Lanjin comforted Qin Tian.

Qin Tian gave a bitter smile, ”I’ve seen through them now, these people, for their tiny interests, are so short-sighted, utterly lacking in vision. Heh, if they seek death, we have no reason to stop them. I won’t be so foolish in the future.”

As he spoke, Qin Tian looked up at the sky, his gaze sharp, and solemnly said, ”In the future, I will hold power in my own hands!”

...

According to Chen Feng’s instructions, their fifty thousand men indeed stayed put.

At this time, the situation in Yang City was even worse than they imagined.

On the Dragon Clan’s side, Long Tianwu dispatched her close confidant, the sister flower, Long Xuanji, into battle.

This Long Xuanji, in this East State River battlefield, made a dazzling display and was a somewhat frightening name within the East State Army.

When Long Tianwu returned to the Dragon Clan to handle domestic affairs, it was this Long Xuanji who led the Dragon Clan army and swept across, declaring the east bank of the East State River occupied.

This time, perhaps the Dragon Clan also realized the importance of Yang City, and Long Xuanji came with reinforcements as the actual commander of the three armies, bringing the Dragon Clan army to a strength of fifty thousand!

Fifty thousand against the City Guard Army’s eighty thousand still seemed like a disparity, but at this moment, it was Zhang Qicheng and his City Guard Army who were worried, which was quite ironic.

”General, I apologize for my recklessness and for contradicting you that day.”

On this day, Qin Tian went to Chen Feng’s military tent specifically to apologize.

Chen Feng was a bit surprised, but he laughed heartily, ”Qin Tian, you are one of the outstanding figures of the young generation in our City Guard Army. It’s great that you can think clearly and see the bigger picture, and finally come to apologize actively.”

”That matter was trivial, and we discussed it on a factual basis without personal attacks. It doesn’t matter; just lead your troops well in the future, and I will still value you.”

Chen Feng spoke arrogantly, and Qin Tian echoed him in various ways, but in his heart, he was sneering.

”General, regarding the current situation, I have a plan. I wonder if it should be executed?”

Qin Tian sneered inwardly but wore a kind smile, seeking the opportunity to state his purpose.

”General, you are hesitating now because you’re worried about going back with a loss of troops and face, and also concerned that if we don’t participate in defending Yang City, all the credit will go to Zhang Qicheng and Zhao Long. Am I not right?” At this moment, Qin Tian was already a scheming Qin Tian.

”Hehe... just say it; what plan do you have?”

Chen Feng didn’t directly respond to Qin Tian’s words but didn’t deny them either, which tacitly affirmed Qin Tian’s guess.

”Since the general has these two concerns, why don’t we send a unit to reinforce temporarily, while the main force follows slowly?”

”In this way, General Zhang Qicheng cannot blame you for not reinforcing, and the force can timely reinforce Yang City without significantly depleting our overall strength. Of course, once Yang City is defended, General Zhang can’t say we didn’t participate, right? What do you think, General...”

Qin Tian’s words led Chen Feng into deep thought, and he frowned, ”I’ve also considered this, but once we split our forces, if the two thousand Dragon Clan soldiers from Sanhe City attack from behind...”

”General, you send out ten thousand men, Sanhe City has only twenty thousand Dragon Clan soldiers. Would they dare to attack us from a hundred plus kilometers away with twenty thousand against our forty thousand? I think not... Moreover, the main force of the Dragon Clan Army is near Yang City, and I suspect they dare not act rashly. Even if they come, we can easily annihilate them with our forty thousand, taking advantage of the situation isn’t impossible.”

Qin Tian anticipated Chen Feng’s concern and further analyzed it.

Chen Feng was swayed by Qin Tian’s words; it was indeed a strategy with multiple benefits. He said, ”This strategy of yours is feasible; our main force isn’t idle either, just moving slowly toward Yang City. If the Sanhe City troop pursues us, they dare not make a long-distance raid...”

”The general is right.”

”Hehe, Qin Tian, by making this suggestion to me, are you intending to volunteer for the reinforcement to Yang City?”

Chen Feng chuckled, watching Qin Tian closely.

Feigning sincerity, Qin Tian flattered, ”The general has sharp insight, nothing can be hidden from you. I wish to be the vanguard for the general, reinforce Yang City first without moving too fast, and after they are worn down, I can lead a group behind the Dragon Clan Army and coordinate with Yang City’s forces to attack from both sides. At that time, when Yang City is defended, we will also take the first credit.”

”I wish to earn merit for the general; please grant my request.”

Qin Tian said, bowing deeply to Chen Feng.

”Hahaha, so young yet so insightful, very good!”

Chen Feng laughed, helped Qin Tian up, ”Alright, I will give you a chance; do not disappoint me!”

”I will dedicate my life to serve, repay the general’s trust!”

Seeing Chen Feng nod in agreement, Qin Tian was overjoyed, not expecting Chen Feng to agree so easily. He hadn’t had to use his prepared plans or tricks.

Chen Feng immediately issued an order for Qin Tian to lead his troops as the vanguard, to reinforce Yang City ahead of time and break the siege.

Qin Tian laughed, took the military order, and laughed with Zhao Lanjin.

”Boss, are we really going to take extreme risks to rescue Yang City?”

Back at their camp, Xiaozhuang asked in confusion, ”Based on what you told me, even if we try to support Yang City, it will be difficult to enter as the Dragon Clan will surely intercept us.”

”Yes, the Dragon Clan Army is in the northeast of Yang City, and we’re in the southwest, but when they realize we are only ten thousand, they will definitely send a force to stop us,” Lin Yu added.

Qin Tian and Zhao Lanjin exchanged glances, then laughed heartily and said:

”Second, third, my request to be the vanguard isn’t to actually return to Yang City, but... our fifty thousand troops are about to become trapped, Chen Feng is doomed, and I don’t want to go down with him. I intend to slip away early!”
