Yuan Shidao was still alright, after all, as a veteran martial arts expert at the half-step immortal realm, he had a noble bearing. Facing such a spectacular scene, he could still hold his ground.

But Xiao Tiannan next to him was excited.

He suddenly regretted it a little.

With such a strong and mighty army, why would he still be looking for friends in the capital

If Li Chen really died here, would the friend in Beijing hold a grudge against me, or even directly expose my secrets to Yelu Shenxuan...

Xiao Tiannan felt a little hesitant and uncertain.

"Lord Xiao, are you concerned about something"

The sound startled Xiao Tiannan, and he looked up to see Yelu Shenxuan staring at him. He immediately said, "Your Highness, the minister was merely commenting on the strength of our army. I reckoned that Li Chen would inevitably become ensnared in his own schemes and die in Gansu."

With a sneer, Yelü Shenxuan said, "Killing Li Chen is just the first step. Next, we'll conquer Gansu and Shaanxi, and use it as our base to hold out until next spring. The Wolf Den will send another large army then, and that's when we'll compete for the Central Plains and drink horses in the Yellow River."

Thinking that the centuries-long love and hate between Liao and Da Qin would finally come to an end under his own hands, Yelü Shenxuan was so excited that he couldn't contain himself.

He looked up at the gloomy sky and said, “From the moment I was born, I possessed sanctity. Everyone on the grassland sang my praises, and they all recognized me as the next lord of the grasslands. But I want more. I want to sit on the Golden Throne in the capital city and rule over the Central Plains!”

"By subduing Qin, I will create the largest and most powerful empire in history!"

Yelü Shenxuan's words made Xiao Tiannan and Yuan Shidao secretly startled.

Both were awestruck by Yelü Shenxuan's powerful presence.

Xiao Tiannan ... regretted it even more.

Now he was even beginning to pray in his heart, praying that Li Chen had other means. If it were only the abilities he showed right now, it would be impossible to stop the hundreds of thousands of Liao soldiers who were driven to desperation.

The Liao army had no way out, and it was precisely because of this that they had the courage to fight a desperate battle. The soldiers' morale and combat effectiveness soared, which could be seen from their current marching speed. On the main battlefield, the Qin army's defense was as fragile as thin paper and was completely unable to withstand the Liao army's attack.

"Prince."

Xiao Tiannan composed himself and looked at Yelu Shenxuan, asking: "Ahead is Suiyang County. It controls the transportation hub of the entire Gansu-Shaanxi region. Once we capture it, we can detour to Yulin Prefecture. It's one of the resettlement points arranged by the Da Qin court, and there must be many people, food, and supplies. How does the prince plan to handle this"

Ye Lu Shen Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Xiao Da Ren, what is your opinion"

Xiao Tiannan pondered for a moment and said, "In my humble opinion, we could split our forces into two groups. One group would launch a full-scale assault on Suiyang County, while the other would bypass Suiyang and head straight for Yulin Prefecture."

This way, not only time is saved, but also accidents are prevented, for example, the transfer of Yulin Prefecture beginning

Xiao Tiannan's suggestion was reasonable and highly executable, but Yelü Shenxuan rejected it.

He said, "Once the troops are divided, it will take at least 100,000 soldiers to capture Yulin Prefecture in a short time. It would still take four or five days of heavy assault, even under the best circumstances. Once we fall into a siege war, it would be very detrimental to our army. My intention is...to concentrate all forces first to capture Suiyang County, and then see the situation."

With a grave tone, Yelü Shenxuan said, "Our supplies... are running low."to hire the best chefs from several top restaurants in the capital city, bringing them along with their cooking utensils. This left the restaurant owners fuming, but after being bribed by a few ingots...
