As soon as Qi Zihao spoke these words, all the commanders present chid in agreent.
"That’s right, facing an army of ten thousand with just two thousand requires a one-to-five fight, but as far as I know, although our Great Han’s Imperial Guard is formidable, the soldiers of Mo’Er are battle-hardened in their native land of Nanjiang.
General Dugu and Divine Hunter Ji only took two thousand Imperial Guards, claiming they could defeat them; such bold words, I’m afraid even the War God in person wouldn’t dare claim such a thing!"
Once these words were spoken, many people nodded along, expressing that they shared the sa thoughts.
For a mont, the assembly hall was in an uproar.
They kept talking but couldn’t co to any conclusion.
The Emperor’s face was bloodless, yet he showed signs of joy. He waved his hand vigorously, indicating to everyone to stop speaking.
He looked at the National Master and asked, "What does the National Master think of this matter?"
The National Master looked up at the sky outside and asked His Majesty.
"Did you notice, Your Majesty, that the night before last, there was lightning and thunder for more than half an hour?"
Upon hearing this, the Emperor’s eyes suddenly widened.
"Does the National Master believe this battle report is true?"
"There is a ninety percent chance it is true!"
The Emperor’s face lit up with joy, and he couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
"Hahaha! This is wonderful, my beloved daughter truly is the little Lucky Star of our Great Han!
She actually won this tough battle."
The war was won, and the Emperor was happy, which everyone understood.
But why was the credit for this success attributed to the Princess? This they couldn’t comprehend!
Soone ca in from outside to report.
"Your Majesty, the eldest son of the Ji Family has arrived."
"Ji Youyuan has arrived, quickly, let him in!"
Accompanying Ji Youyuan were Huo Xing’Er and Zhu Xiuxiu.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"We’re family, no need for formalities!"
The Emperor hurriedly instructed those beside him, "Quickly! Arrange seats!"
The people in the assembly hall widened their eyes, watching as the newly arrived man and two won naturally sat below the Emperor.
Everyone carried a puzzled questioning look in their minds.
"Your Majesty! Is there any news from Yunhang?"
As soon as Ji Youyuan sat down, he quickly inquired about news from Yunhang.
The Emperor smiled at his words, and imdiately handed over the battle report he had just received to Ji Youyuan!
"The battle report has arrived; Youzhi and the others achieved a great victory, Mo’Er has been captured, of the ten thousand from Nanjiang, one thousand are dead, seven thousand five hundred are wounded, and besides nearly one thousand who escaped, all who lived have surrendered."
This result left Ji Youyuan, Zhu Xiuxiu, and Huo Xing’Er all greatly surprised.
"That’s impossible!
Our army had three thousand n, over one thousand were escorting civilians, so those who could fight on the frontline were just over two thousand.
With two thousand against ten thousand, such a huge disparity, how did they win?"
Zhu Xiuxiu, seeing such a battle report, simply couldn’t believe it was true!
"The battle report states the battle occurred the night before last, and it was in the latter half of the night!"
Ji Youyuan furrowed his brow and remarked.
Huo Xing’Er suddenly had a realization.
"Could it be Suisui?"
The Emperor nodded and said, "The National Master just ntioned that the night before last, there was lightning and thunder!"
"The night before last, there indeed was an unusual Celestial Phenonon in the direction of Yunhang! If at that ti, Seventh Brother and the others were truly confronting Mo’Er, then this battle was undoubtedly won."
With these words from Huo Xing’Er, those who understood understood, but for those who didn’t understand, they remained clueless!
"I see, then what should we do next?
The conflict in Yunhang has been settled, and there’s no need for us to dispatch troops for defense in various places. Can I go to Yunhang to fetch Suisui now?"
