Not long after, several generals came looking for him and requested to see Saint Chuli.

Standing to the side, Liu Teng looked troubled and appeared quite embarrassed.

He knew that Saint Chuli always preferred quiet and that once an order was given, it could not be questioned.

Whenever any news came in, he was usually responsible for relaying and reporting it.

However, just now, after he informed those generals of the latest news, they began to make a fuss and insisted on paying their respects to Saint Chuli in person.

Just then, Saint Chuli rode over on horseback, and Liu Teng quickly bowed.

"General, I am truly sorry. I have tried my best to stop them, but they insisted on coming to see you. I really had no choice," Liu Teng explained to Sheng Chuli with a bitter expression.

Saint Chuli simply waved his hand and said calmly, "Never mind, since they are so persistent, let them come with me."

After saying this, Saint Chuli dismounted without hesitation, turned around, and strode off in a more secluded direction, far from the army camp.

Seeing this, the generals exchanged glances, gritted their teeth, and finally decided to follow in Saint Chuli's footsteps.

After the group finally arrived at their destination and settled in, the impatient and hot-tempered Li An, as the deputy general, couldn't contain himself any longer and immediately spoke loudly:

"General, the Xuan Army's willingness to send troops to help us is undoubtedly a great thing, but for some reason, you haven't let the soldiers know about it. If everyone knew about this, our morale would definitely be greatly boosted, and the soldiers would be more confident on the battlefield."

“Yes, General, King Xuancang has sent over a million troops to help us. This time, we will definitely crush those damn Ghost Continent and Void Continent. I think it’s alright to tell the soldiers this news.” Another deputy general said.

Saint Chuli frowned. "What? Without the help of the Xuan Army, we can't defeat them? Are you questioning my abilities or the strength of our soldiers?"

Saint Chuli's icy tone was like a bucket of cold water poured on the group, instantly calming them down.

Li An quickly replied, "General, that's not what we meant. Even without the Xuan Army, we will definitely win. We have our parents, wives, children, relatives, and friends behind us. We cannot possibly lose."

Then he changed the subject, his tone hesitant, "But, General, with the help of our allies, our chances of winning have increased, and our soldiers will be more confident. Why must we keep this news a secret?"

Saint Chuli glanced at the people present, but he did not blame Ang Lee for questioning his decision.

He explained, "We can't guarantee that we know 100% about each person in this hastily assembled army. If the news of Xuan Army's assistance gets known to the Ghost Continent or the Void Continent, they will definitely try to prevent us from joining forces with Xuan Army."

“So the general was worried that if too many people knew, the news would leak out. But even if we keep this information a secret, Qiong Yi will find out sooner or later, and they will still make the corresponding decisions.” One of the generals was still somewhat puzzled.

Saint Chuli patiently continued to explain, “Our army is unaware of the Xuan Army’s assistance. We are going there with the determination to die, while those two continents have already prepared their forces for battle. If the Ghost Continent and the Void Continent know that the Xuan Army is coming to help us, they will also know that we are aware of the Xuan Army’s assistance.”

Seeing that everyone still didn't understand, he continued, "The Ghost Continent and the Void Continent also know that this is a crucial battle. We are going into this battle with the determination to die, and they have probably sent about the same number of troops. But after we learn that our allies are coming to our aid, our morale will definitely increase greatly. The Ghost Continent and the Void Continent can also anticipate that our morale will increase because of this news. So, will they send more troops to deal with us? Or even arrange additional troops to prevent the Xuan Army from joining us? In that case, it will have no effect whatsoever, and will only attract more enemies to us."

"The general means that if we pretend we don't know this news, the Ghost Continent and the Void Continent won't increase their troops against us. They will only think about how to stop the Xuan Army, which is good news for us."

Another general chimed in, "Then when we get to the battlefield, we can tell the soldiers this news. Their morale will be greatly boosted, and we'll achieve twice the result with half the effort. We're sure to win this battle. The general is truly brilliant; we were short-sighted and didn't think things through. From now on, we will definitely follow the general's orders."

After saying this, the general immediately knelt down and admitted his mistake.

Junshan obeyed the order. The general's order had already been issued, but they did not follow it and even questioned the general's decision, which is a major taboo on the battlefield.

The surrounding generals also quickly knelt down, bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes, and were completely convinced of their wrongdoing.

Li An even knelt down dramatically, his face flushed, and said, "General, please forgive us. We are just roughnecks who were not very bright. We only thought that if our soldiers knew this news, it would increase our morale, but we did not think it through. Please forgive us, General. We know we were wrong and will definitely obey your command in the future."

Saint Chuli looked at the few cunning old foxes in front of him, their faces full of flattery and constantly admitting their mistakes, and felt a sense of helplessness and speechlessness.

He originally planned to give them a stern warning at the end, to let them know that he was not someone to be trifled with.

However, to his surprise, these guys were so sensible that they took the initiative to admit their mistakes before he could even speak.

Hmph, even so, so what?

Saint Chuli sneered inwardly. He wasn't the emperor, so he didn't need to care about so much or consider the art of compromise. He only needed to make them obey orders.

In any case, in everyone's eyes, he is still the same playboy prince from three years ago.

Thinking of this, his sharp, hawk-like eyes suddenly turned icy cold, and a chill emanated from him, making people shiver.

"If there is a next time, I will deal with it severely according to military regulations!" Saint Chuli's voice was so cold that it seemed to freeze the air.

"If this were a real battlefield, how many innocent comrades would lose their lives because of your single act of disobeying orders? Don't you have even the slightest sense of the bigger picture?"

After saying this, Saint Chuli didn't even glance at those people again, resolutely turned around, and strode away.

Only the few who had just been kneeling and begging for mercy remained kneeling in place, looking at each other, at a loss for what to do.
