Chapter 310: Da Qian Envoy (Happy May Day, Brothers!)

You should know that the leader of the several hundred thousand Night Fiend Army that arrived with great might is the Night King Ye Wuchen.

He is now a bona fide Saint Rank Commander-in-Chief.

Under his command, the several hundred thousand Night Fiend Army is completely under his control, like an extension of his arm.

The threat to the Da Qian dynasty is in no way inferior to the several hundred thousand Elite Yellow Turban Army led by Meng Zhang in southern Qianzhou.

This is even due to the centuries of accumulation of the Night Fiend Army.

The strength of these several hundred thousand Night Fiend Army is definitely greater than that of the several hundred thousand Elite Yellow Turban Army under Meng Zhang's command.

Even considering only the Commander-in-Chief, Ye Wuchen is still no match for Meng Zhang.

But relying on the various War God fierce generals and scholar-strategists gathered under the Night King's Manor.

Even in a direct confrontation, the Night Fiend Army led by Ye Wuchen,

It will absolutely not be inferior to the Elite Yellow Turban Army under the 104 Commander-in-Chief Meng Zhang.

What achievement could be more spectacular than turning the tide and blocking the several hundred thousand Night Fiend Army marching south?

Xun Yu pondered for a moment, then nodded and said.

At the same time, we can also use the net to feed false intelligence to the Night King, making him mistakenly think our reinforcements have not yet arrived, thus lowering his guard.

This is simple.

He was about to lead the Night Fiend Army straight into Qianzhou, where the Qian capital of the Da Qian dynasty is located.

Besides, I was still worried about how to let Wei Qing quickly make a name for himself and be entrusted with an important task.

Indeed.

We can let Wei Qing lead the new army under the guise of a caravan to the border of the Da Qian dynasty, and strike when the opportunity arises.

Indeed, we cannot spare any more troops.

After all, Wei Qing is still a newcomer, but we also need to find a suitable excuse to get past this.

Therefore, only Su Ye can take the position here.

Therefore, given that the Da Qian dynasty can no longer spare another Saint Rank Commander-in-Chief...

Xun You also joined in, adding to the upcoming plan.

Without needing to deploy our own troops, we can also train Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

After Cangzhou had conquered Qi Zhou, it now also needs to support the Nine Heavens Army in Wenzhou.

Moreover, the main force is not our own troops, but the remaining elite of the Da Qian dynasty.

Guo Jia also nodded in agreement.

Furthermore, we also need to consider how to respond to the Night King's inquiry.

Simply perfect!

Since the lord trusts Wei Qing so much, we naturally have no objections. However, this matter still needs to be handled carefully.

Gao Ying then reminded.

If there were no other Saint Rank Commander-in-Chief to take the post, the Night King would likely have already been promoted to Saint Rank Commander-in-Chief.

We can say that Wei Qing is a secret reserve prepared by the Da Qian dynasty.

Even if the Night King suspects, there is no way to verify it.

Su Ye smiled faintly and was not worried.

Besides himself, no one knows how heaven-defying Wei Qing's complete form truly is.

By then, the confident Ye Wuchen will lead the several hundred thousand Night Fiend Army southward.

When the result is that an obscure Wei Qing blocks them...

I imagine his expression will be quite something at that time.

In the distant Qian capital city, upon hearing the news that the Night King was about to rise in rebellion against Qian, it also fell into panic and chaos.

Above the splendid golden hall, the atmosphere is now solemn.

Qian Emperor Si Xiao Fei sat high on the dragon throne, brows furrowed, his eyes revealing deep worry.

Below the court, officials discussed heatedly; the news of the Night King's impending rebellion against Qian was like a massive stone, stirring up thousand-layered waves.

Your Majesties, the Night King is about to rise in arms; our Qian dynasty is in imminent peril.

I seek a good plan to safeguard the realm and the altars of soil and grain; what suggestions do you have?

The Qian Emperor's voice echoed in the hall, carrying a sense of urgency and anticipation.

For a moment, the hall fell silent; officials looked at each other, none daring to speak lightly.

The Northern Border Night King has generation after generation resisted the northern border's alien tribes, possessing formidable combat power.

The reputation and strength of the Night Fiend Army have long been thunderous in the Da Qian dynasty, causing many to feel fear.

Finally, an elderly official trembled as he rose; he is one of the oldest officials in the court, having witnessed the rise and fall, glory and disgrace of the Qian dynasty through several dynasties.

Your Majesty, I believe that our Da Qian dynasty now faces war alarms on all sides, our forces are severely insufficient, and the urgent priority is to seek external aid.

Our dynasty has a marriage alliance with Cangzhou; now is the perfect opportunity to strengthen the alliance and jointly resist the Night King.

He took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

As soon as he spoke, the hall immediately buzzed with whispers.

Qian Emperor Si Xiao Fei raised his brows slightly, signaling the elder to continue.

Your Majesty, Cangzhou, after being managed for a long time by the heir of the Yun King, now possesses strong military forces and also has a marriage alliance with our dynasty.

If we send envoys to seek aid, perhaps we can persuade Cangzhou to send troops to assist.

The elder continued speaking.

Sir, your words are mistaken! Although Cangzhou possesses strong forces, after all it has old ties with the Night King, so its loyalties must differ.

How can we easily trust them?

"What if they take advantage of the fire to loot and strike back? Wouldn't we be inviting wolves into our house?"

Another young and hot-tempered general, upon hearing this, immediately stood up to refute.

The court once again fell into a heated debate.

Some supported the elder minister's proposal, believing they should seek aid quickly; others backed the young general's view, urging vigilance toward Cangzhou.

Qian Huang Si Xiao Fei listened quietly to the ministers' arguments, but was secretly pondering.

He knew this debate was not merely about trust in Cangzhou, but also a divergence in the court's view of the future direction.

Finally, he raised his hand, signaling the ministers to be quiet.

The court fell silent at once; everyone looked to Qian Huang Si Xiao Fei, awaiting his decision.

"I believe the elder minister's proposal is feasible."

"Now our dynasty faces peril; we must unite all forces we can."

Qian Huang glanced over the ministers below, then spoke slowly.

"Of course, we cannot fully trust Cangzhou."

"Therefore, while seeking aid, we must also make thorough preparations."

"I have decided to send envoys to Cangzhou for aid, and simultaneously strengthen the capital's defenses."

He paused, then continued.

Whispers rose again in the court.

"Your Majesty is wise. However, I have a humble suggestion."

"Although we seek help from Cangzhou, we must not rely on them completely."

"After all, the Cangzhou Army also has its own interests. I suggest that when seeking aid, we negotiate with Cangzhou to have their reinforcements act as vanguard, helping us hold off hundreds of thousands of the Night King's night fiend troops for a time."

"This would both utilize their combat strength and ensure our safety."

At that moment, another minister stood up, after a moment's thought he said.

"Your words are indeed correct, beloved minister; we must indeed act cautiously when seeking aid."

"Then let us follow your advice and discuss this with the Cangzhou envoys."

Qian Huang pondered, thinking that since we are not of the same cloth with Cangzhou, the reinforcements they send will likely not be many, and he nodded in agreement.

As the court's discussion gradually subsided, Qian Huang Si Xiao Fei made his final decision.

After court, Qian Huang immediately dispatched envoys to Cangzhou for aid.

The envoys, spurring their horses, soon reached Cangzhou.

Now glossary: list all names that appear in these lines.

We have:

Also, 'Qian Huang' might be a title; actually 'Qian Huang' could be an emperor's title. 'Si Xiao Fei' is likely a name, and the full 'Qian Huang Si Xiao Fei' could be the emperor's name, which we treat as Qian Huang Si Xiao Fei.

Also 'Cangzhou' and 'Cangzhou Army'. Also, 'capital' (meaning capital city) is a place but generic? It's a capital city, but not a proper name; exclude.
