Upon hearing that Zuo Yuanhao had rushed over from the West State, everyone was taken aback.
Zhou Yang's eyebrows suddenly relaxed, and he said, "Boss, in my mory, Zuo Yuanhao always cos up with brilliant strategies at critical monts. This ti, he traveled thousands of miles to find us here. Could it be that he has foreseen our current situation and ca to help us out?"
Zhou Yang's words reminded Qin Tian.
It seems that Zuo Yuanhao really does co up with brilliant strategies at every critical mont!
"Quick, let General Zuo Yuanhao co in."
Qin Tian imdiately had Zuo Yuanhao brought into the eting hall. Before Zuo Yuanhao could salute, Qin Tian waved his hand and said, "Yuanhao, no need for formalities. Sit, we're just having a eting, you can take a seat and speak."
They saw Zuo Yuanhao arrive alone from West Capital City on a flying beast, looking dusty from travel, with sweat on his forehead and a slightly haggard complexion.
"Yuanhao, what's wrong? You don't look well. Are you ill?" Qin Tian, noticing Zuo Yuanhao's state, quickly asked.
"Thank you, Marquis Qin, for your concern. I was rely in a hurry to travel, and I haven't eaten or drunk anything for three days and two nights."
Zuo Yuanhao's words left everyone stunned.
Zhou Yang quickly instructed the maid to bring food and tea to Zuo Yuanhao.
Zuo Yuanhao took just a sip of water, then gasped for breath.
Lin Yu asked, "General Zuo, why did you rush over? And alone at that. Did sothing happen in West Capital?"
Zuo Yuanhao shook his head and smiled, "West Capital is safe and sound. I was just worried about you all. So, upon learning that the Demon Clan sent envoys to the Imperial City, the Demon Clan, and the Barbarian Clan, I reported to General Ye Kun and then rushed here alone. I left West Capital City without permission; please, Marquis Qin, punish ."
Zuo Yuanhao was about to stand and plead guilty to Qin Tian, but Qin Tian waved his hand, making him sit down, and said, "You an to say that three days ago, you already knew that the Demon Clan was sending envoys to the Imperial City, the Demon Clan, and the Barbarian Clan?"
Qin Tian was shocked, and so were the others.
Three days ago... aning Zuo Yuanhao, from the far-off West Capital City, knew this information nearly two days earlier than Qin Tian and his team?
Qin Tian and his team only found out yesterday!
How could Zuo Yuanhao know this?
Everyone looked at Zuo Yuanhao in unison.
Zuo Yuanhao said, "I didn't know that the Demon Clan sent envoys, but five days ago, I learned that Yin Yue Demon Venerate entrusted the Great General Hong Qi of the Demon Clan with full authority over affairs regarding battles with our army."
"Just based on this news, you figured the Demon Clan would send envoys to the Imperial City, the Demon Clan, and the Barbarian Clan?" Xiao Zhuang was stunned, finding it incredible.
Zuo Yuanhao gave a faint smile and said, "I was rely speculating. From calculations, I figured there was an eighty to ninety percent chance Hong Qi would take this route, so I dared not delay and imdiately ca to report to Marquis Qin."
Impressive!
At this mont, Qin Tian was extrely impressed with Zuo Yuanhao!
He managed to deduce so much information from such a small detail?
"Yuanhao, you were right. A few days ago, the Demon Clan indeed sent envoys to the Imperial City, the Demon Clan, and the Barbarian Clan. We are now having this eting precisely to discuss counterasures. It's very tricky." Qin Tian said helplessly.
Lin Yu curiously stared at Zuo Yuanhao and asked, "General, can you tell how you guessed it? It's too amazing, isn't it?"
"Yes, General Zuo, please tell us. I'm curious too." Zhao Lanjin was extrely impressed by Zuo Yuanhao's deduction.
Seeing the curious gazes from everyone, Qin Tian also nodded. Zuo Yuanhao then gave a faint smile and explained, "Actually, it isn't that miraculous."
"Previously, when I was in the East Capital, I studied the influential figures of various countries and major forces. Hong Qi was among those I researched, a person with a very distinct personality and style."
"Hong Qi is a low-profile person, speaking very little, but once he acts, he is confident he can defeat his opponent. His allegiance with Yin Yue Demon Venerate in rebellion is a good proof of this."
"According to information and rumors I received, Hong Qi has his intelligence system and a team of advisors. Many years ago, his subordinates started doing business, with his sphere of influence including the Demon Clan, the Barbarian Clan, and other places. His intelligence system likely operates and transmits information through these comrcial channels."
"Having business operations with the Demon and Barbarian Clans also ans that Hong Qi might have connections with so influential figures there."
"Therefore, from the above information, I concluded that if Hong Qi was willing to personally deal with us, he must have a foolproof plan to repel or even eliminate us."
"Considering the current situation of the Demon Clan, with only two to three hundred thousand main forces, they definitely cannot be reassurance of defeating us. Therefore, Hong Qi must have other asures."
"His asures can be divided into two categories: internal and external. Internally, they might negotiate with the rebels to increase their troops or recruit soldiers and experts to fight us together."
"Externally, without a doubt, the Demon Clan can only enlist reinforcents, and the only neighbors are the Tianyuan Dynasty, the Demon Clan, and the Barbarian Clan. Considering Hong Qi's connections along the lines with the Demon and Barbarian Clans, it is certain they will seek reinforcents on three fronts, and the chances of troops being sent to help on all three fronts are very high."
In the eting hall, everyone quietly listened to Zuo Yuanhao's analysis.
As Zuo Yuanhao finished, everyone had an epiphany. They felt Zuo Yuanhao's analysis was so clear and simple, yet they hadn't thought of it before.
Even Qin Tian had only considered a small part, which Zuo Yuanhao had predicted.
"Impressive! General Zuo, I toast to you. I can understand your deduction and admire it!"
After listening, Lin Yu gave Zuo Yuanhao a thumbs up and then toasted Zuo Yuanhao with a drink.
Qin Tian and Zhou Yang exchanged glances, nodding and smiling. Zuo Yuanhao's analysis was ticulous, precise, and thorough.
Zuo Yuanhao, seeing everyone's complints, gave a humble smile and said, "Actually, the key lies in the fact that I happened to have studied Hong Qi and got familiar with him, which allowed for this analysis and deduction."
"This is all due to your usual accumulation. I heard you like to deduce destiny and analyze people's lives, haha, it seems this truly is a scholarly pursuit."
Qin Tian said, raising his glass from afar and toasting Zuo Yuanhao.
Zhou Yang, sitting nearby, asked, "Yuanhao, given that you know Hong Qi's conspiracy, and you ca so hastily, surely you already have a counterplan in mind?"
This question was the most pressing concern for everyone at the mont.
As everyone looked over, Zuo Yuanhao put down his wine glass and said, "You could say I have a counterasure, but also that I don't."
Everyone: "%￥#&*..."
