"What are everyone's thoughts on this joint attack on Bei Li?" Xiao Yanchu asked.
“There’s no problem with the Great Chu. Wen Zhou and I will lead 60,000 border troops from Mohan and Zhenyi Pass to launch a pincer attack on the southeast,” Su Yunfeng said.
Lu Hong nodded. "Bei Li once invaded and occupied Xiaoyue Liuzhou, using mutants to harm the people of Xiaoyue. Xiaoyue will definitely avenge this. This time, His Majesty has ordered the old ministers to fully cooperate with the Regent. We, Xiaoyue, will send 30,000 troops to advance from the west."
Xing Qin had no reason to hesitate. Before coming, Emperor Yunqi had already received a secret letter from Xiao Yanchu, which briefly explained the matter.
Yunqi was also a victim of the Northern Li Demon King's poison. Given this opportunity, Emperor Yunqi would certainly not let Northern Li off the hook.
"I will personally lead 40,000 Yunqi soldiers to attack Beili from the north."
Now that everyone has agreed, all that's left is to discuss tactics.
By the time they finished their discussion, it was already dawn.
Lu Hong and Xing Qin left Da Chu immediately without taking a break, as it would take some time to mobilize troops back in their respective countries.
When Xiao Yanchu returned from court, Su Ruojin immediately noticed the dark circles under his eyes. She knew he hadn't slept all night because he hadn't returned to his room last night.
Su Ruojin quickly told Xiao Yanchu to go and rest.
Xiao Yanchu teased his daughter on the bed, saying, "It's okay, I'm not sleepy. I used to be able to go for several nights without sleep when I was on the march or fighting."
Su Ruojin still pulled him to the bedside, "The past is the past, the present is the present. You have time to catch up on sleep now, so go to sleep for a while."
Xiao Yanchu held Su Ruojin's hand, his face showing some guilt. "Ajin, Da Chu, Xiao Yue, and Yun Qi are about to set off to attack Bei Li together. My father-in-law and I will be going to war with the army, so we won't be able to stay home with you."
Su Ruojin smiled gently, "Don't worry, Nian'er and I will wait for you at home."
From the moment Xiao Yanchu said he wanted to take down Bei Li, Su Ruojin knew he would go to the battlefield in person.
Xiao Yanchu then briefly explained the tactics he had discussed with Yun Qi and Xiao Yue to Su Ruojin.
Su Ruojin knew that Xiao Yanchu wanted to put her mind at ease.
"Yanchu, I believe you can come back safely."
Actually, Su Ruojin wasn't really worried about taking down Bei Li this time.
With Xiao Yanchu, his father, and his third brother leading the army, plus the cooperation of Xiaoyue and Yunqi, taking down Beili should not be difficult for Da Chu.
"Okay, you and Nian'er wait for us to come back." Xiao Yanchu gently kissed Su Ruojin's forehead.
Although it's called a campaign, it's not something you can just do on a whim; there are many things that need to be prepared.

On the eighth day of the third month, Princess Anle married the heir of the Marquis of Anguo.
The capital was bustling with activity once again, as almost all the officials in the capital were invited to the Marquis of Anguo's residence to attend the wedding.
Last night, Madam Su and Su Muyao had many intimate conversations and discussed some intimate matters, which made Su Muyao both nervous and shy, and she barely slept all night.
As dawn approached, she finally felt sleepy and was about to fall asleep when Hongxiao dragged her out of bed and began to tidy her up.
After Su Muyao changed into her wedding dress, Madam Su came over to comb her hair.
Picking up the sandalwood comb, Madam Su gently began to comb Su Muyao's hair.
"I will comb my daughter from head to toe, and wish her happiness until she grows old."
"After combing the second comb to the end, I wish my daughters and grandchildren would be running all over the place."
"Combing three times to the end, I wish my daughter and her husband a loving and long-lasting marriage."
