Later, Helian Shuo personally arranged a carriage with thick fox fur padding inside.
In order not to attract attention, Helian Shuo did not arrange too many people to escort him. There was only a maid, a coachman, and a doctor from the Central Plains who had some knowledge of medicine, namely Qi Che.
The four of them rode in an ordinary carriage and headed towards Da Chu.
After Wu Ya left, Helian Shuo personally came to Xie Yunqi's tent to apologize to him.
"Thank you, General. Yesterday's incident was due to my poor discipline, which led to Wu Ya offending you. I hope you will forgive me."
Xie Yunqi still lowered his head over the book in front of him, his voice calm and unwavering: "Prince, you are too kind."
Helian Shuo knew he was still upset, so he added, "Don't worry, General. I have already dealt with Wu Ya. She did something shameless and violated the alliance between our two countries. I will not tolerate it."
"I have sent Wuya to Great Chu and asked her to explain the truth to the Emperor of Chu in person and expose the fake Wuya identity planted by Amur."
Xie Yunqi then slowly raised his head, his eyes sharp.
"Prince is truly willing to sacrifice his own family for the greater good. His ruthlessness is no less than that of your uncle Amur."
Helian Shuo's face turned pale, and he said in an embarrassed tone, "General, you are joking. I have no choice but to do this for the great cause of the Western Regions."
Xie Yunqi did not continue to dwell on this matter, but instead focused on the real business.
"Prince Helian, I want you to capture the Western Regions Royal Court and incorporate Sule's troops within ten days. Are you confident?"
When this matter was mentioned, Helian Shuo frowned and looked embarrassed.
"General, although Suler is seriously injured, the 13,000 elite soldiers left by Amur are still stationed at the royal court. If they learn of the news and rush to support, the situation will probably become even more difficult."
Xie Yunqi stared at him for a moment, tapping his fingers on the desk subconsciously.
Slow and rhythmic.
He knew that what Helian Shuo said was true.
After a while, he suddenly said: “I am naturally aware of these difficulties. I will send General Shen to assist you.”
Helian Shuo's eyes lit up: "Thank you, General! With General Shen's help, we will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort!"
"However..." Xie Yunqi changed the subject, "General Shen can only assist you. Whether you can succeed in the end depends on your own ability. I will not change the ten-day deadline."
"Yes, Xiao Wang understands." Helian Shuo responded quickly.
Xie Yunqi nodded slightly and said nothing more.
After Helian Shuo left, Shen Chi came in and Xie Yunqi instructed him, "Get ready and transport a few carts of food and herbs to assist Helian Shuo and the others."
Chen Chi nodded, "Brother, are you worried that if our people take action directly, it will easily give people a reason to criticize us?"
"But if that's the case, relying solely on the few thousand men Helian Shuo currently has, it would be difficult to capture the royal court within ten days..."
Xie Yunqi tapped the table lightly with his fingertips, a cold light flashing in his eyes: "Helian Shuo's thousands of men were not meant to be used to storm the royal court."
Chen Chi's expression changed: "Brother means..."
"Helian Shuo's limited force is already struggling to deal with the remnants of Sule's army. It is simply a foolish dream to think that he can shake the foundation of Amur."
What he wants is not Helian Shuo's victory. Wouldn't that be like raising a wolf cub for himself?
What he really wanted was for Helian Shuo to restrain Amur and make him unable to attack Da Chu again.
Or to be more precise, he wanted the uncle and nephew to fight each other so that he could reap the benefits.
A glimmer of understanding flashed in Chen Chi's eyes: "Brother, do you want them to fight among themselves?"
Xie Yunqi raised the corner of his mouth and smiled meaningfully.
But it's more than just an internal conflict.
He wanted everyone to think that it was Amur's tyranny that forced Helian Shuo to rebel, and he also wanted to spread rumors to force Sule's subordinates to mutiny. When both sides were defeated, the border troops of the Great Chu would enter the royal court in the name of mediating disputes in the Western Regions and suppressing the rebellion.
The teacher has a legitimate reason and no one can find any fault with him.
Chen Chi was terrified when he thought about it carefully, and he was secretly shocked.
"Brother, I will go prepare it right away and try to get the food and herbs ready to go tonight."
Chen Chi reported and was about to turn around and leave the tent.
"etc!"
Xie Yunqi called him.
"And by the way, arrange a carriage and pack your luggage."
Chen Chi was shocked: "Brother, are you leaving?"
Xie Yunqi stood up and threw a booklet in his hand to Shen Chi. Shen Chi hurriedly caught it and opened it to take a look.
It was filled with dense annotations of the troop distribution and food reserves of the various tribes in the Western Regions, and even the personalities, preferences, conflicts and disputes of the leaders of each tribe were recorded clearly.
The following pages contain strategic plans for different battle situations: if Helian Shuo and the remnants of Sule are deadlocked, how to secretly instigate them; if Amur sends his main force back to reinforce, how to mislead his judgment...
The more Shen Chi read, the more frightened he became, and his hands were shaking as he held the booklet.
"Brother! When did you prepare these?"
Xie Yunqi had already taken down a folding fan from the shelf and answered him nonchalantly, "Since I received that letter."
That letter...
Chen Chi thought about it carefully, and suddenly remembered the terrifying expression that flashed across his brother's face when he just received the letter from Prince Rui that day, and he couldn't help but feel numb.
It turned out that his elder brother had secretly investigated so much, but he, his younger brother, knew nothing about it.
Chen Chi felt a little depressed.
His elder brother is so outstanding that he can never catch up with him even if he flatters him.
Xie Yunqi saw the desolation in his eyes and said, "I'll leave the affairs of the Western Region to you. Follow the instructions in the booklet and you won't make any big mistakes."
Chen Chi raised his head, his eyes regained clarity, and his tone was firm: "Don't worry, brother."
