Chapter 507: Giving MedicineChapter 1847: Taking the Initiative to Volunteer

Li Chen frowned.

He had previously stated that, regarding military command strategies, he would completely leave it to Wu Qingsang to handle. For non-important and difficult issues, he would not require any additional authorization or consent from him.

In this situation, the battle report from Luofengpo still reached him, meaning that the situation at Luofengpo was already very dire, and Wu Qingscang must have encountered a difficult and thorny problem.

"As for the specifics of the battle, the Liao army's arson attack on the mountain was already within the pre-planned scenarios. There should be a countermeasure in place." Li Chen did not give a direct order, but asked instead.

The reporting general wryly said: "The battle situation is extremely brutal...and it's one-sided brutality. Now our army has lost over 10,000 men at Luofengpo, and even the newly appointed general was killed in the chaos..."

Even the general leading the first army went into battle himself to kill the enemy, but he was killed.

This means that the previous reports were still conservative. This is not just a disastrous battlefield situation, but the entire war situation has basically collapsed.

Li Chen's face tightened, and he asked, "What did Wu Shuai say"

"Now, we need to immediately appoint a new commander to lead the reinforcements to support the troops at Luofengpo." the man said cautiously.

Li Chen raised an eyebrow.

Things that even Wu Qingcang would find embarrassing are likely to happen with the selection of the new commander.

"No suitable people" Li Chen asked.

The general wryly smiled and said, “There are suitable candidates, but they may not necessarily achieve better results. This is what Marshal Wu said. The most important thing is that one person volunteered and made a military oath, claiming that with only 20,000 reinforcements, they would hold the Lǒufèngpo for three days, making Marshal Wu feel difficult to handle. This person is… the leader of the Guzha tribe, Guzhaiyilo.”

Upon hearing this, Li Chen immediately understood why Wu Qingcang dared not act on his own.

If it were anyone else, Wu Qingcang might have agreed or refused, but since it was Gu Zaiyelo, Wu Qingcang dared not refuse nor agree.

Because this is no longer a purely military issue, but a political one.

Guzai Yilo was originally a surrendered general. Allowing a surrendered general to lead troops and command such an important position is tantamount to handing over the entire Qin army's southwest security to Guzai Yilo. If something were to happen here, it would very likely directly affect the entire battlefield.

Just as Li Chen was thinking, suddenly someone from his personal guard unit in the distance let out a low growl, “Stop! No one is allowed to approach without His Highness's order, violators will be executed!”

Meanwhile, countless arrows and weapons were secretly aimed at the group of people. Although they all knew their identities, now Li Chen's safety was paramount. Even if his own parents came, without Li Chen's permission, they absolutely couldn't get closer than half a step.

From within the crowd, Guzailo's crisp and distinctive voice rang out, "Guza tribe member Guzailo requests an audience with His Royal Highness. Please relay this message..."

Of course this sentence was said by Li Chen.

Gulailo came alone, without any companions.

She walked straight to Li Chen's front, just about to salute and speak when Li Chen waved his hand to indicate that she didn't need to.

"Are you going to Luofengpo" Li Chen got straight to the point.

Guzailo's face hardened with resolve. "Yes, your Highness," he said. "Please grant me your permission."

Looking at Gu Zai's resolute face, Li Chen smiled and said: "Actually, you have always been a smart person, so I will explain some things to you clearly. You should know that using you carries a lot of risks and concerns, and the reasons for those risks and concerns, you should be clear about."o Kingdom at this time. If the Liao Kingdom's 600,000 army marches south, it will be a massacre."“Therefore, your servant humbly petitions on behalf of the world!”"Your Highness, please consider coope...
