After Grandma Gu said this, no one in the room said anything more.
Apart from General Peng and his two sons, everyone present initially knew Grandpa Gu's identity. Now that Peng Ze has married Gu Hui, he naturally knows Gu Hui's identity as well.
General Peng and his wife only figured out the Gu family's identities after being severely scolded by the Empress Dowager last time.
As Grandma Gu said, all the daughters of the Gu family are resilient. The daughters of the Ye family are royal noblewomen, and it is only in this way that they have the demeanor of royal descendants. Just like Princess Jinghe, who was able to put aside her status and enter the military camp as a woman.
After a long silence, it was Old Master Peng who broke the atmosphere first: "Aze, was your journey back safe? Did you encounter the Lang Kingdom's navy?"
Peng Ze shook his head: "No. The sea map from Liusha Kingdom to Da Zhou that Uncle Jun drew based on information from his subordinates may not be entirely accurate, but it was definitely able to avoid the sight of Langge Kingdom."
General Peng nodded: "In that case, once we have everything ready, you can set off immediately. This time, we won't depart from the Goddess Kingdom; we'll start from Linzhou."
Grandpa Gu said, "Brother Peng, now that the child is back, let him rest for a couple more days!"
Old Master Peng glared: "They're just resting on the boat anyway. Brother Gu, don't feel sorry for my brats. They shouldn't be resting. Xin'er is suffering in the west, what right do these brats have to rest?"
Peng Ze nodded repeatedly and said to Grandpa Gu, "That's right, Grandpa, I'm not tired."
Grandpa Gu sighed.
After listening for a while, Gu Ren finally couldn't help but speak up: "Can't we just blow up Langer Kingdom and go there to bring Third Sister back? Second Sister has made a whole box of firepower. Langer Kingdom is such a small thing, it'll be easy to deal with!"
As the original author, Gu Ren portrayed the Langge Kingdom as truly pathetic. Although the fact that the Langge King was the Qu King was beyond his control, he still believed in his heart that the Langge Kingdom was very weak.
Zhang chimed in, "That's right! Langge is such a small place. Even if we don't blow it up, the combined forces of our Great Zhou will definitely outnumber those of Langge!"
Grandma Gu glanced at the mother and son: "Then why hasn't the Peng family, who have guarded Kuncheng for so many years, directly dealt with the Langge Kingdom?"
Gu Ren really wanted to say, "They didn't solve it because I left it for the male lead, to show how awesome he is!"
Because the words were spoken by Zhang Shi and Gu Ren, Madam Peng explained the situation: "The terrain of Langge is easy to defend and difficult to attack, unlike the former Southern Frontier, which was surrounded by the Great Zhou on three sides and faced the sea on one side. Nor is it like Chuyun and Shashen, which, although bordering our Great Zhou on one side, had nowhere to retreat. With Langge's terrain, even if we attack, they will have a way to retreat. In the past, because it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, the other armies had to guard their respective borders. But now we know that they are allied with the west. Even if we use Nian Nian's firepower to blow up their territory, they can retreat without any losses. If we pursue them into the desert, we will be no match for them. We do not know the strength of the Yunhai tribe left in Langge. Therefore, if we attack rashly, even if we win, it will be a narrow and pyrrhic victory. Unless absolutely necessary, we cannot use the lives of our soldiers to achieve such a pyrrhic and narrow victory."
