Chapter 860: Deliberation

However, originally, with Chang Siyuan and Hong Yu, there were only twenty-seven people in total, and in the rescue process, Hong Yu's role was not counted, and now three more people failed to come back as agreed, and at present, they only have twenty-three high-level martial cultivators available. There were enough people to rescue the prince, but they didn't have the spare manpower to save the imprisoned ministers.

If the crown prince is only rescued, Shangguan Hong is very likely to use the imprisoned ministers to blackmail Emperor Yang, and then Emperor Yang will choose to give in, they can't complete the deal with Lin Xuanzhong, and naturally continue to be the sinners of Yangguo, and the worst case is that Shangguan Hong may also arrest them in the name of holding the prince hostage, so that their actions will inevitably end in failure. Therefore, in order to ensure that their plan can be successfully implemented at one time, Shi Jiangchuan and others extended the meeting time indefinitely.

"Marshal, General Chen, they haven't come back to join up until now, shouldn't something happen?" After encountering difficulties in discussing the matter of rescuing the prince and those ministers, as he spoke, one of the generals mentioned their three companions who had not yet returned. All three of them infiltrated their respective families on the pretext that they had escaped from their injuries during the war, and had returned to Yang after recuperating from their injuries, and then asked their people for information while pleading guilty.

However, there were other people who used the same method to inquire about the news, and those who had all returned to join them after pleading guilty to their respective clansmen and being forced to explain the reasons for their true return, although they also brought back some people who were spying on them, but it seems that those who knew about the situation did not intend to reveal the whereabouts of the others.

The three who had not returned were likely to have some problems with the three who had already returned, and the biggest concern now was whether their whereabouts would be revealed. Since they could no longer send people to understand the situation, Shi Jiangchuan and the others realized that they had to act as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night, and this time to help Emperor Yang get out of trouble was their last chance, and no one wanted to lose this opportunity.

"Maybe General Chen and the others are detained by their respective clansmen, but their clansmen will definitely not be upheld, so there is no need to worry about our whereabouts being exposed for the time being, but we must discuss the plan to rescue the prince and those ministers as soon as possible, time is running out," After thinking about it for a while, Shi Jiangchuan felt that although General Chen and the three of them sneaked back to their respective families as deserters, according to the current situation in the city, those three families would definitely not make the situation of General Chen and the three fleeing back public. In that case, it is a matter of time that they should be worried. Considering the current situation of the Night Army, Shi Jiangchuan felt that they had to act as soon as possible.

"Marshal, the last general thinks that he still has to find a way to rescue those imprisoned ministers, only then can he really help the king get out!"

"What General Han said is exactly, it's just that we are short of manpower, how can we save those ministers?" I thought that their twenty or so high-level martial cultivators would be enough to help Emperor Yang get out of trouble, but now it seems that the manpower is far from enough, and we need external help to rescue those ministers.

"This matter has to bother General Han, you go back to your respective families, if you want to carry out a rescue operation, we need more manpower, you go back and persuade the clansmen to join forces with us, but you must remember not to reveal to the clansmen that this is a deal between us and the night army, let alone the existence of Ben Shuai, because in their cognition, Ben Shuai and some generals are still locked up by the night army, if they know that Ben Shuai is in the city, it will definitely cause a lot of suspicion, which is not conducive to our actions," Glancing at the two generals who had just spoken, and then at several other generals from Meteorite City, Shi Jiangchuan understood that they could only pass through these generals if they wanted to use external forces.

"Then what should we say?" The general surnamed Han understood what Shi Jiangchuan meant, raised his eyebrows, and immediately asked out loud.

"It is only said that the 100,000 night troops transferred from the mainland by the night army are about to arrive, if the prince and those ministers are not rescued as soon as possible, let the night country and the Yang country have a grudge again, once the Yang country and the night country start a full-scale war, the Yang country will be destroyed in the hands of the Qingyuan power," At the critical moment, Shi Jiangchuan's considerations were all based on being able to achieve the goal as quickly as possible.

"What if they don't believe that the king is controlled by Shangguan Hong?"

When a general raised this crucial question, Shi Jiangchuan and some generals looked embarrassed, although they had made clear the situation of Emperor Yang, it was still not easy for others to understand Emperor Yang's situation.

"I don't know what you think?" After not making up his mind for a while, Shi Jiangchuan looked directly at all the generals present.

"The Admiral thinks we can tell them everything we've found," one general said directly after a moment's thought.

"That alone may not convince them unless they verify it themselves, but it's uncertain how long it will take," another general said.

"What does General Song think?"

"The prince must know something about the fact that the prince has not met with Emperor Yang for many days, and in my opinion, after those ministers are imprisoned, they will definitely not be able to visit the prison, Shangguan Hong and those powerful ministers must be trying their best to block the news, only when the night army led by General Lin is eliminated, they will openly ask those ministers for their crimes," the general surnamed Song's thoughts were racing quickly, and he quickly put forward some practical points.

"General Song's analysis is very reasonable, according to Ben Shuai's opinion, this can indeed make them believe General Han and the others as soon as possible, but how long it will take is still uncertain," Shi Jiangchuan agreed with General Song's point of view, but it was still not enough to just follow General Song's proposal, unless it could also make those people realize that the current problem was important and must be solved as soon as possible.

"The situation in the night army can't be delayed any longer, once something happens to the night army, you Yang will have an inextricable hatred with the night country, and even if you can help Emperor Yang get out of trouble, it will be useless," Seeing that Shi Jiangchuan and the others were encountering problems, Chang Siyuan, who had been listening to the meeting for so long and had been integrated into the meeting, had some thoughts at the moment. Although such a straightforward statement may cause dissatisfaction among some generals, the situation is urgent, and with such an opinion, Chang Siyuan can't hold back and not say it.

"What does General Chang mean?" While many generals understood Chang Siyuan's threatening words with unkind faces, Shi Jiangchuan looked at Chang Siyuan with a calm face.

"I think I can use this to convince those people to help Emperor Yang get out of trouble as soon as possible, even if you have to go to war with the Night Army later, it has nothing to do with the transaction, and that's what our general means," Chang Siyuan didn't hide or avoid in the face of so many high-level martial cultivators. Although he can't talk to everyone with a smile like Lin Xuanzhong, he can communicate with them normally.

"What General Chang means is that we don't need to explain the deal with the Night Army, just say that it will be good for us to control the fate of Yangguo by letting the monarch get rid of Shangguan Hong's control as soon as possible. In addition, if you can't help Jun Shang get out as soon as possible, after General Lin's army has an accident, those ministers who are locked up will be in danger, and then the forces of various families will be suppressed," Because of Chang Siyuan's conclusion from an objective point of view, Shi Jiangchuan had a feeling that the reason they could use to persuade those families already existed, but they couldn't find it at first.

Shi Jiangchuan's analysis was the greatest recognition of Chang Siyuan, and when the other generals understood what Chang Siyuan wanted to express based on this, a complete plan gradually appeared in their minds.

"What the marshal said is that, according to the general's opinion, the first step is to let them confirm Emperor Yang's situation, the second step is to let them decide to rescue Emperor Yang as soon as possible, and the third step is to let them join forces with us. We can take care of the rescue of the prince, and they will be responsible for the rescue of those ministers, and if the plan goes well, we will go our separate ways tomorrow night. ”

"We only have one chance to succeed in one fell swoop, and if we fail, you know very well what kind of situation we will face, if there is no objection, you will rest early tonight," the meeting was long, but it went well. During the discussion of everyone, Hong Yu has been guarding outside to help everyone keep an eye on them to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. Of course, this is just a safeguard measure, if someone really eavesdrops, with the ability of Shi Jiangchuan and the others, it is easy to find out if there is someone outside according to the breath.

After the meeting, Chang Siyuan and several generals left, and in a blink of an eye, only Shi Jiangchuan and the other three main generals were left in the room.

"Marshal, do we really have to rush to save Emperor Yang. If we had a little more time, wouldn't it be more likely that we would have helped the king get out?" The Lord who spoke did not express any opinion when everyone was discussing just now, but now that Chang Siyuan has left, this person has something to say. According to this person's understanding, it is not too late for them to rescue Emperor Yang after they have exhausted all the 80,000 night troops.

"General Deng, didn't you hear what General Chang said just now? If that night army is wiped out by the Yang Kingdom, then our Yang Kingdom will have a life and death grudge with their Night Country, and on the other side will make an enmity with the Qingyuan Great Power, do you say that such a result is good or bad for our Yang Kingdom?" Taking a step back, if we had saved the king first, the king would have been grateful for our merits, and no matter how the king dealt with the affairs related to the night army, he would have remembered our merits, and the purpose of our trip would have been achieved. ”

"General Song is right, this is a matter of chronology. Since we all know the situation of the night army, the general also feels that we should help the king get out as soon as possible," Immediately afterward, the other main army also refuted the opinion of the main general just now.
