Chapter 1828: Frame and Courage

dim, with his sharp eyesight, he immediately saw Su Pingbei's face."Good for you!!!"Yuan Shidao was both startled and enraged. With a furious shout, he sprang to his feet and dashed towards Su Pingbei...Chapter 1828: Vision and Courage

Huangji Tian gave a carefree smile and said, "All this fanfare was just for this day, wasn't it Just say what you need me to do."

Li Chen said in a deep voice: "From the beginning, my plan was to use myself as bait, luring Yelu Shenxuan all the way to the hinterland of Gansu and Shaanxi, and then set a trap on Wulong Mountain, making him attack with his whole army. Inside Wulong Mountain, a heaven and earth net had already been set up. This is where Yelu Shenxuan and hundreds of thousands of Liao soldiers will meet their end."

“Now, all the previous steps have been completed. The only thing you and General Jin need to do is to divide your troops into two groups, east and west, and set out from Wulong Mountain. March north along the Wei River and finally encircle the Liao army from behind. Once this encirclement is formed, Yelu Shenxuan will be trapped like a turtle in its shell. With Wulong Mountain blocking his front and 300,000 Jin troops encircling him from behind, he won't even be able to fly away with wings.”

After listening to Li Chen's plan, Huangji Tian frowned and said: "Your plan is correct, but there is a fundamental problem that is difficult to solve. I can divide my troops out of Wolong Mountain without a problem, and it's no problem to surround them from the north, but this process takes time, at least four days at the fastest. And during these four days, you have more than 100,000 troops in Wolong Mountain facing Yelu Shenxuan's army of over 350,000. Aren't you afraid that your forces won't hold out"

This is what gambling is.

Li Chen said in a deep voice: "I wager my life and the fortunes of the Qin Dynasty, while Yelu Shenxuan has gambled on the future of the Liao Kingdom for decades to come. And the only one who can decide this gamble is you, who has also staked your life and the very foundation of the Jin Kingdom. As long as you can complete the encirclement within three days, I will hold my ground for three days. I will personally lead the charge to boost morale. If it exceeds three days, things are beyond our control, then···the world will be in chaos."

Huangji Tian took a deep breath.

He figured Li Chen would bet everything on him in the end.

Based on Li Chen's current plan, his life and death, as well as the life and death of Qin and Liao, and even the Jin Dynasty itself, all hinge on whether he can complete the encirclement within the next three days.

Huangji Tian widened his eyes, staring at Li Chen, and blurted out: "You trust me so much"

If I had other options, I wouldn't put my life in anyone else's hands, but now I have no choice.

Li Chen's voice was low, "Qin State... has been weak for too long."

"And the Liao Kingdom, in choosing this time to attack, was too cunning."

"If I could, I would much rather cede land and pay reparations to the Liao Kingdom, making them wait three or five years before starting this war again. But the most difficult thing in the world is the word 'if'. I won't really cede land and pay reparations, and the Liao Kingdom will definitely not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Domination of the world means life and death, it's about the survival of a nation. There is nothing crueler than this."

Even with the status, experience, and cunning of a Heavenly Emperor, one couldn't help but feel a tremor in their heart at this moment.

He felt his mouth was dry, his heart pounding in his chest. The distant explosions seemed far away, and the cold wind that blew across his face was especially biting.

At this moment, looking at Li Chen's expressionless face, Huang Ji Tian suddenly realized the biggest difference between himself and Li Chen.

It's not about being cunning or manipulative, but about having a broad heart and vision, or in other words, courage.

If he were to become Li Chen, he wouldn't really be able to make such a big decision.

"What if I fail"

Even the Celestial Emperor couldn't fathom why he asked that question.
