Nanhua, who was sensing Gan Ning’s position in the sky, inexplicably felt a chill rising from his tailbone, a feeling of impending catastrophe that made Nanhua inexplicably uneasy.
[I didn’t intervene directly, and didn’t get too involved in karma, plus I saved Gan Ning, so why do I still feel like a catastrophe is looming? This ti feels scarier than anything in the past few centuries, could it be I shouldn’t have saved him?]
Nanhua, looking depressed, calculated but couldn’t deduce the cause and effect, could only tiredly express that he was about to be very unlucky.
[Alas, once Gan Ning awakens later, I’ll return to the Central Plains. Here I always have a feeling that I could die at any mont.] Nanhua inexplicably shivered, then chased after a certain direction.
Kasani and Zhukashyapa both had extrely unpleasant expressions. If it weren’t for that arrow, they wouldn’t suspect that Gan Ning had been rescued, but with that arrow, everything beca very clear.
"What do we do?" Zhukashyapa asked Kasani with an extrely unpleasant expression.
"Report it to the Commander-in-chief." Kasani composed himself and said calmly, "Now that things have co to this point, we can’t turn back. Can the Han Dynasty and we pretend this didn’t happen?"
"That’s it then, if negotiations fail and we have to fight, we’ll say dostically that the Han Empire seized our water village and attacked our fleet." Zhukashyapa said with a face full of resignation.
It’s not that Kushan cannot yield to the Han Empire, the problem is whether yielding would have any effect on the one hand, and on the other, it’s really uncertain what the Han Empire’s caliber is. Just like Kasani said, if the Han Empire is at the previous level, it would indeed require preparing an army of a million to defeat Kushan.
So to this extent, Zhukashyapa also had to agree with Kasani’s proposal, just prepare for war, if you Han Empire have the capability, co and fight , it’s just a matter of cutting down one of your fleets. If you’re not strong enough, do you believe that I will not only cut down one of your fleets, but I will also cut you?
"However, I don’t think we need to be the first to clarify to the Han Empire." Kasani turned to Zhukashyapa and said, and after a mont of silence, Zhukashyapa said, "Kasani, you haven’t been in touch with those relevant things, so you don’t know how strong the Han Empire is."
Kasani’s face turned dark. Coming from the lower class, climbing to this level through talent and hard work, he hated the most those people high up looking down on him, and Zhukashyapa’s words hurt Kasani’s self-esteem.
"Uh, I didn’t an it that way." Zhukashyapa also realized he misspoke, acknowledging the mistake because of the other party’s strength and ability, and then quickly explained to Kasani what they knew about the Empire.
"So you’re saying we’re basically at the bottom among the four empires?" Kasani asked in return, "The Han Empire is the strongest? I don’t think so."
"It’s unknown who is stronger between the Han Empire and the Roman Empire unless they fight it out, but we are definitely at the bottom. Of course, if His Majesty can maintain the current montum, defeating Parthia shouldn’t be a problem." Zhukashyapa said helplessly, "So avoid provoking the Han Empire as much as possible."
Kasani silently looked at Zhukashyapa, sowhat unable to accept this ranking, "But I still disagree with clarifying, if they haven’t notified us, and we go to clarify, wouldn’t that show we’re guilty? Moreover, we don’t know if that was the Han Empire’s marines."
Zhukashyapa hesitated for a mont, said nothing more, then the two turned back to the Strait of Malacca, fully informing Commander-in-chief Qiu Lique of the whole incident, and after much deliberation, Qiu Lique chose Kasani’s suggestion.
Zhukashyapa couldn’t help feeling a bit worried, so he ordered the marines returning to Kushan to send a ssage to the holand, but also had so doubts in his heart, perhaps the Han Empire had indeed weakened, no longer having the might to suppress an empire with just a few thousand n as before.
On the other side, rescued by the Great Kun, Gan Ning was finally awake after being spat onto the Southern Peninsula by the Great Kun to sunbathe for half a day.
Seeing the surroundings, Gan Ning roughly knew where he was. His body was incredibly weak, and he struggled to stand, seeing the Great Kun not far away. In an instant, he rembered this was once in Qingzhou, and also rembered the scene of being swallowed when he fell into the water.
Although he had many doubts about the Great Kun that saved him, Gan Ning had no way to ask, so he could only wave to it in gratitude, and after the Great Kun spurted out a massive fountain, it left.
