Chapter 1089

~5 min read 866 words

This King Wu of Nanyue, who lived to be one hundred and four years old in history.

Is not as simple as he appears on the surface.

Zhao Tuo is only in his early thirties right now.

There is still a very long stretch of years to go before he reaches one hundred.

If such a person cannot be kept under control, then one cannot entrust too much power to him.

The generals exchanged glances.

For the time being, they could not think of any better solution.

As long as Zhao Tuo's method is applied properly, the success rate is still quite high.

Han Xin reached out and put away the map on the tabletop.

"Your Highness, leave this matter to me."

"I will certainly handle it beautifully."

"Just wait for my good news."

Han Xin said, rolling up the map and tucking it into his sleeve.

The surrounding deputy generals frowned deeply.

They wanted to do this task too.

But they had been beaten to it by Han Xin.

This couldn't help but give them a feeling of wanting to beat their chests and stamp their feet.

He had already put the map away.

They couldn't very well fight to do it at this point, could they?

If they had to blame anyone, they should blame themselves for not being sharp enough.

"Go."

Ying Ying Zi Ye glanced at Han Xin and didn't say much else.

"Understood!"

Han Xin walked out of the camp tent with a smile.

It was evident that he was in a good mood at this moment.

The others could only grit their teeth.

"Your Highness, is there anything else you need us to do?"

"There is plenty we can do, please give your orders, Your Highness."

"What needs to be done next?"

"Are we just going to keep camping here?"

The other generals also wanted to find something to do.

"There will be plenty of things for you to do later."

"What you need to do now is get some good rest."

"Keep a close watch on Hu Hai and the others, and maintain vigilance."

"This is the middle of nowhere, so don't let yourselves be attacked by wild beasts."

Ying Ying Zi Ye yawned; he was truly quite sleepy after these past few days.

"Do you have anything else?"

"If not, then disperse."

Seeing the Prince speak thus, Meng Tian and the others.

What else could they do?

They could only disperse.

They didn't have anything to do for the moment anyway.

It was time to leave and not disturb the Prince's rest.

"Your Highness, we take our leave."

Meng Tian and the others saluted.

Then they turned and left.

Ying Ying Zi Ye collapsed directly onto the simple cot.

His whole body became languid.

Midnight.

In the great mountains.

Three figures were lying prone on a mountain rock.

There were bushes in front that provided excellent cover for their forms.

By the light of the stars scattered from the sky, one could clearly see the faces of the three.

Two of them were young men, and the other figure was particularly young.

He was about sixteen or seventeen years old.

And not far in front of them were many campfires.

The three lay there quietly.

Like poisonous snakes in the darkness.

Waiting only for a suitable opportunity.

They would not move until the time was right, and when they did, it would be shocking.

"Sha Nu, can we make a move yet?"

"We've been lying here for half an hour already."

"If we lie here any longer, we're going to go numb."

At this moment—

A faint voice sounded from the side.

Sha Nu, lying in the middle, frowned slightly upon hearing this.

"Just consider it a rest."

"It wasn't easy getting here."

"I will call you when it's time to act."

"Now is not the best time; we must wait until at least the hour of the Ox."

"That is when they will be at their sleepiest."

Sha Nu's voice was very low, for fear of being heard by others.

They had been here for some time now.

Seeing the campfires in front told them they hadn't gone in the wrong direction.

Originally, Han Xin had not intended to give this mission to Sha Nu.

After all, this mission carried a certain amount of risk.

He was afraid that Hu Hai and the others wouldn't play by the rules.

In that case, Sha Nu would be in danger.

But Sha Nu had accepted this mission without hesitation.

He was also perfectly clear about the content of the mission.

If he could rescue Shangqing Meng Yi, that would be best.

Once the person was taken away, he just needed to drop the map he was carrying.

But if he failed to rescue the person, he would have no choice but to be captured.

Whether they could survive would depend on their own wits.

But Han Xin had also clearly told them.

If they were caught, they should not resist.

This was the only way to save their lives.

If they resisted, they might be killed.

When Sha Nu received this mission.

He selected two soldiers to help him.
