Is it no longer necessary?
Thirteen and Hongli were both stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood.
Knowing this made Thirteen even more uneasy. He asked Fourth Brother, "Brother, do you mean they've already decided on the location and time for the hostage exchange?"
“That’s right, exactly,” Fourth Master replied.
It turns out they had already agreed on the location and time!
However, if that happens... there's a high chance the other party will tamper with things, and Hongli and Thirteen immediately showed expressions of disapproval.
The Fourth Prince pretended not to see the disapproving looks on the two men's faces and ordered the soldiers outside, "Bring that man here."
"I have met the emperor of the Qing Dynasty."
The Fourth Prince handed the handwritten letter to his soldiers, who then passed it on to the foreign soldiers below.
“This is a letter in my own handwriting. Give it to your master, and he will understand.”
A foreign soldier took away the Fourth Master's handwritten letter.
"Fourth Brother, it's too dangerous for you to agree so rashly. If the other party does something underhanded at the location they designated, we won't have time to react."
Fourth Master reached out and rubbed his temples, then asked everyone with an air of dominance: "Whether it's a conspiracy or a scheme, as long as we can guess what they want to do and what they will do next, then it's not a conspiracy."
Even so, everyone was still very worried.
Generals such as Niman were also in the tent.
Niman asked, "My lord, how can we guess correctly what they will do next?" Niman was a brave and skilled warrior, but he was not good at strategy.
Looking up, Fourth Master stood up from the main seat and then walked down.
He asked the crowd, "Since they agreed on a location, and it's at the border where the two sides are facing off, it seems fair."
"However, the area is surrounded by rocky jungles, where outsiders excel at hiding, making it advantageous for them. But they seem to have forgotten something."
Fourth Master opened the parchment map and gestured for everyone to come over. When everyone saw the place Fourth Master pointed out, they were all surprised.
On the other side, Hiroshi and Giru were talking in their own tent.
Hongshi said, "We can launch another attack during the hostage exchange. Our army is skilled at concealment, making them the perfect fit."
First, set up an ambush at the hostage exchange location!
As expected, the foreigners wanted to ambush the group at the place they had agreed upon with Fourth Master and the others.
“That’s right, we can catch them off guard,” Giroud nodded in response.
He and Hongshi had already discussed the specific plan for the ambush. At this point, Jiru made up his mind to follow Hongshi's advice and ambush the Qing people at the agreed location!
So Giroud began to arrange the personnel for the ambush.
Meanwhile, the Fourth Prince and his generals discussed the issue of exchanging hostages.
Hongli said, "Let me go this time!"
Fourth Master, fearing a trap, shook his head and said, "You lack experience; I'm afraid you can't complete it."
“Then let me go, and have General Shen lead his men to ambush,” Thirteen replied.
"Alright, Thirteen, this mission is no small matter. You must act according to your abilities. Are you sure you can do it?" Fourth Master asked Thirteen.
At this moment, Thirteen nodded solemnly, "I can definitely do it."
When Hongli heard this, he was anxious, both on the surface and in his heart! Couldn't he help?
The Fourth Prince then turned to Hongli and said, "Then it's decided. This is the decisive battle. Hongli, you must immediately prepare more skis and not let the enemy find out!"
