e made a move. They have already begun their pre-war preparations."Li Chen nodded and said, "The day of the final battle is just around the corner."At this moment, someone has come to report."Your Hig...Chapter 1032: Xiao Tiannan

Yelü Shenxuan's face was expressionless as he stared straight at Xiao Tiannan and said, "Be specific."

Under normal circumstances, unless he initiated the question himself, Yelu Shenxuan did not allow anyone under his command to speak their mind without permission.

Furthermore, it involves a major issue such as troop withdrawal.

Even though Xiao Tiannan joined them halfway, he wouldn't be unaware of this rule.

It was precisely because of this that Xiao Tiannan's initiative to propose this idea had stirred a hint of curiosity in Yelü Shenxuan's heart.

As for whether these little thoughts are satisfactory or not, it depends on Xiao Tiannan's next 'specific actions', whether they can satisfy him.

Xiao Tiannan knew all too well that he was teetering on the edge of self-destruction, but orders from that gregarious someone named He compelled him to press on, gritting his teeth.

"Your Highness, the current situation at court is extraordinary. Although your position remains stable for now, Your humble servant dares to speak out of turn. If the King ascends the throne, there would be no issue with Your Highness succeeding him. However, the question lies in whether Your Highness could command respect after taking the throne. Would those princes and tribal leaders be willing to follow Your Highness's orders"

Xiao Tiannan's words were extremely over the line, but they also made sense.

Yelü Shenxuan did not become angry, he merely looked at Xiao Tiannan with indifference, gesturing with his eyes for him to continue.

To say these things is nothing, it's an obvious fact. It doesn't demonstrate Xiao Tiannan's abilities, nor can it make Yelu Shenxuan determined to withdraw his troops.

The crown prince needs military merit, the king also needs the crown prince to obtain military merit, but only those princes, tribal leaders, and even other princes in the royal court do not want the crown prince to get this military merit.

“If the Crown Prince were to withdraw his troops at this time, it would certainly be a safe option for the Liao Kingdom. But they have always sought wealth and honor amidst danger. This wealth and honor, for the Liao Kingdom, is the foundation upon which they will conquer and annex the Qin Dynasty, and for the Crown Prince, it is the prerequisite for stabilizing his control over the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, it is of paramount importance.”

“From the king's point of view, ordering the prince to withdraw his army is because he cannot guarantee a foolproof victory and benefits. It’s better to give up the potential gains than to take this gamble. The king wants a smooth succession to the throne, and whether the prince can rule steadily afterward is something the king can no longer see or control. However, the prince must consider this more carefully.”

“Therefore, for the Crown Prince, once he retreats, the once-in-a-millennium opportunity will be lost. During his last trip to the capital of Qin, the Crown Prince already witnessed the capabilities of the Qin prince. This man is no ordinary person. His skills, scheming, and strategy are all above average. If this man ascends the throne, he will inevitably become a major threat to our Liao Kingdom.”

"While the prince returned to face the upheaval of imperial power, the tribulations of tribal leaders and other princes, it was a situation of rising and falling. The prince had no chance to lead another army south before resolving the domestic conflicts within ten years."

"Now, within the borders of the Qin Dynasty, the crown prince and Zhao Xuanji have already broken ties. Regardless of the outcome, their元氣 will be greatly injured, which is an excellent opportunity for our Liao Kingdom to invade. Even at the Moonlit Pass, no matter what unforeseen circumstances may cause the plan to change, if the Qin Dynasty's interior is divided, the morale of the troops at the Moonlit Pass will inevitably be shaken."

“With my 600,000 cavalry, it would be best if we could deceive the defenders of Yueya Pass and open the city gates. But if that fails, we can take advantage of the internal divisions within Qin and forcibly break through the pass. The difficulty would be significantly reduced. As long as we get past Yueya Pass, my Liao cavalry can drink horses in the Yellow River! Such a magnificent military achievement, who in the Liao Kingdom would dare to question the crown prince”ho would question me"Xiao Tiannan let out a cold snort and said, "Get to the point. I can't stay here for too long, or else I might be discovered."Xiao Tiannan's eyes widened.He was unaware of Li Chen...
