939 Executing Plan B (1/2)

Chapter 939 – Executing Plan B

Everyone knew what it meant if Shu Han sent troops to assist Swordsman City.

No one expected one of the huge members of the Yanhuang Alliance to give up so easily and choose to rely on a NPC power, becoming its 'slave'.

This time, Swordsman City was totally 'famous throughout the land'.

However, this was not fame but notoriety, which made Di Chen and the others feel ashamed. All of a sudden, various mocking words flooded toward Swordsman City, and it looked like it would swallow them up.

”Swordsman City gives up without fighting, such heroes.”

”New playstyle in the wilderness, once you get smacked, you look for a new father!”

”Giving his body up to Liu Bei, Feng Qingyang has such a unique taste.”

Apart from mocking Swordsman City, the players did not forget to leave out the Yanhuang Alliance.

”Colluding with America's Jack on the outside, working with the thief internally, the Yanhuang Alliance has no bottom line!”

Facing such words, Swordsman City was totally silent.

Since he had already gone through with it, these words would not have any actual physical impact on him. Likewise, the players in the Qingyang Sword Sect did not leave despite feeling humiliated.

Everything concerned personal interests, so a little face did not matter much.

...

Jingdu Province, Handan City.

”Preposterous!”

Di Chen was furious. Feng Qingyang's unexpected action had caused the reputation of the Yanhuang Alliance to collapse.

”Once this battle ends, immediately chase Swordsman City out of the alliance.” Di Chen was very decisive. He definitely would not allow a puppet state to remain in the alliance.

Juedai Fenghua was more open than Di Chen, and she smiled, ”This is great, Shu Han sending troops means that Great Xia will take revenge on them. That's great for us.”

Di Chen shook his head and sighed, ”That's only a short term benefit. I'm afraid that this would affect Plan Z.”

”It would not have much of an effect.” Juedai Fenghua was really calm, ”Swordsman City is so cut off from the world, and they only have two prefectures of land. It would not have much of an effect on our arrangement.”

”Let's hope so.”

It was not that Di Chen worried too much. However, this plan affected too much, and they could not afford to make any mistakes.

Shanhai City, Xia Palace.

Weirdly, as the person who planned this whole war, Ouyang Shuo had remained deep inside the palace since the start. He had not gone to the frontlines to get a better view nor had he posted any words to the media.

Such silence made one feel even more fearful.

People like Xiong Ba were even feeling down and anxious because of it.

In his eyes, Ouyang Shuo was so low profile because he was standing at a new height; he was not on the same level as everyone else.

”He's already looking down on us!”

Such a mental impact was fatal.

In the quiet Imperial Reading Room, the biggest change from before was the huge map of China that covered the entirety of the west wall.

On the map, there were many different markings.

Someone was in charge of marking every action on the map, which passes were taken down, which city was occupied, which army had reached where, and the like.

This masterpiece showed the communication efficiency of Great Xia.

As a result, Ouyang Shuo did not need to go out and could watch the whole war from here. Military Affairs Minister Du Ruhui, Jia Xu, Cheng Gong, and the like were all on standby as they awaited his questions.

Outsiders all thought that the Consonance City headquarters where Baiqi was located was the core of Great Xia. No one knew that this reading room was the true brain of the operation.

Since Ouyang Shuo ascended to the position of king, his chances of personally leading an expedition became less and less. Only by using such a method could he control the situation.

Within the reading room, Ouyang Shuo was not looking at the map but focusing on a memorial.

The Shu Han Dynasty sending troops to help Swordsman City did not surprise Ouyang Shuo. The Shu Lands had Baiqi commanding the troops, so it was okay. Ouyang Shuo was here to focus on the big picture.

The memorial was from the Shanhai Guards, and it talked about the unusual occurrences at Dali.

With a previous experience, Ouyang Shuo obviously would not allow the four remaining territories in Dali Prefecture to do as they wished. They had been investigated and monitored by the Shanhai Guards.

These four suddenly merging into one naturally raised the suspicions of Ouyang Shuo.

Thinking about the current war, this definitely was not a coincidence. At this time, if the aristocratic families did not try something funny, something would be up. It seemed like Di Chen was going to act on Dali Prefecture.
