At this time, Wang Boyan, Wang Yuan and others had already realized that they had lost their composure, but no one spoke again.

Yue Fei is your old subordinate. You know his abilities and he is the most obedient to you. Zhang Rong is also a talent. I hope you can use them well.

We don't require field battles, large battles, or random battles, but it would be great if we can preserve our strength to wait for a response in the future."

"I would rather die than refuse!" Ma Kuo seemed to be in a dream.

"That's all." Zhao Jiu finished speaking in one breath, and then he was relieved. "If there is anything left out, we can discuss it later. As for the rest of the troops, prepare them properly. As soon as Jin Wushu leaves, we will set off immediately and go to Nanyang!"

Everyone bowed their heads.

"Oh," Emperor Zhao put on his futou again, and suddenly thought of something. "Let Xu Jingheng and Zhang Que come back... They have worked hard these days."
