Chapter 965 Are you short of generals?

Lu Xingwan nodded, she understood.

Unlike Pei Chuyan and the others, who made their judgement only after some investigation, Lu Xingwan knew clearly in his heart that even if there was no war in the world, this evil cultivator would provoke a war.

It is too easy for those who practice Taoism to control people's minds.

While they were talking, Wanwan had already walked around the table and came to the seat where Pei Chuyan had sat before.

At this time, her eyes were fixed on the marching map, and she was not distracted by the two of them.

If it were in the past, she would have known nothing about this military map, but she had gone to the western camp with her mother after all.

Moreover, the war with Yuefeng Kingdom lasted for several months.

Lu Xingwan followed her mother and naturally learned a lot about marching and fighting.

She was still thinking at that time that if there was a chaos in the world of immortal cultivation one day, maybe she could become a female general and lead her fellow disciples to fight.

But she didn't expect that the chaos in the world of immortal cultivation would come so quickly.

What he said actually came true. The world of immortal cultivation is now in chaos.

It was just a mess, but the so-called "war" that I expected did not happen.

It's just a few people fighting alone.

But Wanwan also felt a little uneasy in her heart. She knew that next, this evil cultivator would definitely try his best to stir up some chaos in this mortal world.

So now, it is also crucial to stop this war.

Thinking of this, Wanwan looked up at Pei Chuyan in front of her and said, "Why don't you consider peace talks?"

Pei Chuyan shook his head, perhaps peace talks would be easy for him.

But now, these three small countries may not necessarily negotiate peace with the Dali Kingdom. What they want is Dali Kingdom's request for peace.

Once the Dali Kingdom asked for peace, it would be his compromise.

Let’s not talk about whether he can gain a firm foothold in the Dali Kingdom in the future.

Even if he leaves the Dali Kingdom in the future, I am afraid that the surrounding small countries will be ready to make a move.

So what he wants is to solve the current problem once and for all.

"If we want to solve this problem once and for all, we must let them know that the Dali Kingdom is not easy to control."

Just like before, the Dali Kingdom sent troops to aid the Yuefeng Kingdom, but was defeated by Song Qingyan's men.

Pei Chuyan could probably guess that Wanwan was probably worried that this war would bring some trouble to the people.

He smiled slightly and said to Wanwan: "Don't worry, Princess. In this battle, we must do our best to hit the target with one strike and never delay."

If this war drags on for a long time, it will cause unbearable suffering to both the people and the army.

Lu Xingwan didn't say much. She still had some confidence in Pei Chuyan.

I think if he wasn't absolutely sure, he wouldn't say such a thing.

She continued to look at the marching map in front of her. After a moment's scrutiny, she raised her head again and looked in Xia Ning's direction: "So you are still missing a general now?"

After hearing Wanwan's words, Pei Chuyan's face showed a hint of surprise.

He knew that Wanwan had been with the Imperial Concubine for a long time and might be able to read the military map, but he didn't expect that she could detect the problem so quickly.

"indeed."

Now that the princess has joined in, he doesn't need to avoid her anymore.

He then told Lu Xingwan about the current situation.

"There are three small countries around Dali, attacking Dali from different directions."

"Their purpose is very clear, which is to divide the Dali Kingdom. Now the Dali Kingdom is absolutely unable to borrow troops from the Great Chu Kingdom or Yong'an County, so it can only rely on itself."

For these small countries, they simply felt that Dali had previously had a direct conflict with Dachu, so it was impossible for Dachu to lend troops to Dali.

From Pei Chuyan's perspective, if he wanted to establish his prestige in front of the ministers of the Dali Kingdom, he had to rely on his own strength.

Having said this, he paused slightly, as if thinking about something.

"These small countries simply feel that Dali is in turmoil, so they want to take advantage of the situation."

"I've thought about it. I will lead the troops to the south, and Fu Yao will go to the east. But as for the west..." When he said this, he sighed deeply.

Just as Lu Xingwan said, the West really could not find suitable generals.

Pei Chuyan even thought that he might as well ask Marquis Dingguo to help. The western part was close to Yong'an County, so it would not be impossible for Marquis Yong'an to attack from the north.

Now the Dali Kingdom really has no generals available.

Previously, Li Cheng was worried that his throne would be threatened, so he killed all the officials who had supported the eldest prince or had objections to him.

Especially generals.

As for some high-ranking officials whom he could not take action against, he would find ways to destroy them.

Just like General Fu today, he is Fu Yao's father.

His leg is injured now and he is afraid it will never heal, so he can only recuperate at home.

Most of the other generals were in the same situation, so now Pei Chuyan had no choice but to let Fu Yao fight.

Pei Chuyan chatted casually about what was about to happen on the battlefield as if he was an old friend, but his conversation with Lu Xingwan shocked Xia Ning who was standing beside him.

He knew that the princess always had some plans, and he also knew that the princess was an extremely powerful girl.

Moreover, even if she just followed Song Qingyan, she could learn a lot.

But he never expected that the princess could see the problem on the military map at a glance.

In the past, he only thought that Lu Xingwan was a child prodigy, but now he felt that the word "child prodigy" was no longer enough to describe the princess.

What shocked him, of course, was Pei Chuyan's attitude towards Lu Xingwan.

He used to think that Pei Chuyan just wanted to take better care of Lu Xingwan because of the care the Imperial Concubine had given him.

Now it seems that he actually treats Lu Xingwan more like his friend.

If I were to look at it from my own perspective and stand on Pei Chuyan's side, he might just treat Lu Xingwan like a little baby and not take her seriously.

After all, Lu Xingwan is really just a little kid.

Moreover, there are very few women in this world who can get involved in military affairs.

The emergence of a Song Qingyan and a Fu Yao is already impressive.

But now, I can't believe that the princess, who is only a few years old, is so powerful.

Lu Xingwan frowned slightly and began to think about the current situation of Dali Kingdom.

She actually didn't know the true situation of other generals of Dali Kingdom, but she just thought that Li Cheng was cruel and killed them all.

Thinking of this, Lu Xingwan shook his head helplessly, and in his heart he felt quite emotional: "This Li Cheng is really a cruel man. For his own ambition, he actually attacked the important officials in the court."
