Chapter 518 Envoy from Western Xia



"Multiply the effect".

The square seal that Wang Han threw out rapidly grew larger in the sky, eventually becoming as huge as a distant mountain, and crashed directly onto the mountain.

"Boom...!" A few seconds later, the loud noise continued, and even the ground shook and trembled, making it difficult for people to stand.

With a wave of his hand, Wang Han caused the seal to shrink rapidly and fly back into his hand, where it was then put away with another flick of his wrist.

"This...!" Cold sweat poured down everyone's foreheads as they watched the distant mountain shatter into pieces. Even Zhong Shidao, who had witnessed Wang Han's Susanoo before, was dumbfounded. Who could have imagined that Wang Han possessed such a powerful treasure?

"Do you think the capital of Liao, or any city in Liao, is more fortified than this mountain and can withstand the smashing of my Heaven-Turning Seal (the imperial seal from the Three Kingdoms period)?" Wang Han asked with a cold smile, looking at the terrified Western Xia envoy.

"Thump!" Looking at the shattered mountain in the distance, and feeling the almost unsteady tremors beneath their feet, the Western Xia envoys couldn't help but swallow hard. Let alone the Liao Kingdom, there was absolutely no city in the world that could withstand such a slam.

"The imperial edict from Emperor Huizong summoning me to war has already been issued and just arrived today. If you want to avoid war, you'll have to get a ceasefire edict from Emperor Huizong and deliver it to me first," Wang Han said with a sneer. "I have no intention of disobeying the imperial edict."

"General Shenwei, this matter is still negotiable," the envoy quickly said upon hearing this. He cursed inwardly, thinking, "You keep mentioning Emperor Huizong, what are you afraid of disobeying the imperial decree? You clearly want war!" Unfortunately, given Wang Han's actions just now, even if he had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare utter a single word of threat! Because he simply couldn't withstand this General Shenwei. Right now, the general was waiting for war!

"No matter how much we discuss it, I can't disobey the imperial decree!" Wang Han said with a cold laugh. "We have to achieve some results."

"General, could you please postpone your departure by a month, just one month?" the Western Xia envoy pleaded. If this guy went to Western Xia, no one could stop him; then Western Xia would likely lose every single intact tile.

“A month? That’s a long time. You’d have to make one and a half round trips by then. Do you think that’s possible?” Wang Han said with a sneer.

"Twenty-five days," the Western Xia envoy pleaded.

Upon hearing this, Wang Han did not utter a word, but simply stared at the Western Xia envoy.

"Twenty-two days, General, just twenty-two days, I beg you!" Seeing that Wang Han was still not satisfied, the Western Xia envoy knelt directly in front of Wang Han.

"What's the difference between twenty-two days and a month?" Wang Han remained unmoved as he looked at the kneeling Western Xia envoy.

"Twenty days, just twenty days."

"Nineteen days, eighteen days, fifteen days."

Seeing that Wang Han remained silent, only coldly observing him, the envoy lowered the time limit again and again, his heart growing colder and colder. Fifteen days—this was already the fastest speed possible, almost non-stop day and night.

"How many days do you think it will take for my army to reach your first city?" Wang Han asked.

"Ten days." The Western Xia envoy was stunned for a moment, then pleaded, "General, please give me a few more days! Ten days is far too little; it's only enough for me to reach the capital of the Song Dynasty! Five more days, just five more days."

“Not a day more. I already told the army today that we’re setting off today. I won’t go back on my word unless you can get an imperial edict today.” Wang Han said with a sneer, “As for how many days it will take me to reach the first city of Western Xia, that depends on how many days you can hold me off.”

"How do we stall?" Upon hearing this, the almost desperate Western Xia envoy paused for a moment and quickly asked. He knew that Wang Han's idea of ​​stalling was definitely not to use soldiers to hold them off. Against the Divine Might General, no matter how many soldiers there were, it would be useless.

"I just announced the new system of rewards and punishments for military merits today, and my soldiers are already sharpening their swords for military achievements. I can't go back on my word and disappoint them, can I? However, there is one condition: if they can rescue the Han people captured by your Western Xia, that will also count as military merit for them," Wang Han said to the Western Xia envoy. "Of course, capturing the enemy also counts as military merit."

Upon hearing this, the Western Xia envoy immediately understood Wang Han's meaning. Wang Han wanted them to return the Han people who had been abducted by Western Xia to the Song Dynasty!

"General, I am willing to immediately send someone to notify the first city to send all the Han people back," the Western Xia envoy hurriedly said. Under no circumstances could they allow the Divine Might General to lead the expedition against Western Xia, otherwise Western Xia would be finished.

“Sending it back, can that still be considered a military achievement?” Wang Han said with a sneer.

"The General's military achievements will be considerable, and it's no problem for the General to go on an expedition to rescue the Han people in Western Xia," the Western Xia princess suddenly said.

"Your Highness, what are you saying?!" Humutu exclaimed anxiously upon hearing this. He then quickly said to Wang Han, "General Shenwei, Your Highness's words are not to be taken seriously."

The other envoys quickly echoed this sentiment, for everyone knew what it would mean if the Divine Might General went on campaign. Even if they could obtain the imperial decree in time and rush back to catch up with the Divine Might General, it would take at least twenty or thirty days. In those twenty or thirty days, most of Western Xia would likely have perished.

“I took it seriously,” Wang Han said with a smile, then said to the Western Xia princess, “Interesting Western Xia princess, you’re quite bold. Continue, I think you must have some requests.”

"Yes." Upon hearing this, the Western Xia princess said, "General, can you promise me that you will not go to the next place until you have rescued the Han people in one place and captured all the prisoners?"

“Sure.” Upon hearing this, Wang Han said with a smile, “Then it depends on how many Han people in Western Xia need to be rescued. If not enough, or if people die or the city disappears, then don’t blame me.”
