Chapter 746 - 746 256 Come Again (2 in 1)_2

Chapter 746: Chapter 256: Come Again (2 in 1)_2 Chapter 746: Chapter 256: Come Again (2 in 1)_2 But the result… it turned out to be so fantastical!

Fate really is capricious and full of surprises… it’s hard to predict.

“We should not act rashly for now,”

Bai Yihwen frowned and said, “The current timing is too sensitive. All the top-level doctors in Yuezhou City, currently swept by unprecedented gratitude and joy from their treatments, are in a state of anxious anticipation… Attacking the miraculous doctor now, would leave little room for maneuver, and could easily backfire.”

Miao Sensen said coldly, “So we just watch him keep expanding?”

Bai Yihwen shook his head, a troubled expression on his face. “In fact, the last time was already a golden opportunity. Yuezhou had lost its walls, and by simply deploying a large number of troops, Yuezhou would have had no defenses, and we could have easily taken it, forcing the Great Qin entrenched near Yuezhou to retreat back behind the Hundred War Pass!”

“Then we would have just sealed off the city, torched the mountains, and moved the people to Yan State. By the time the harsh winter would have passed, not just Great Qin, but the whole world would have realised that Yuezhou no longer exists on the peaceful continent…”

“Beyond the Hundred War Pass, there would have been only the battlefield, with no city, no buffer zone! It’s a pity that once such a golden opportunity was missed, it may never come again!”

Bai Yihwen pounded his fist on the table, teeth clenched. “It’s a shame no one listened to my advice.”

Miao Sensen rolled his eyes. “I think you’re still talking nonsense. How could we have mobilized our troops at that time? With the surge of Demon Beasts causing havoc in Yuezhou, even the Purple Emperor was defending the city. Were we supposed to attack right after that?…”

“Or seize the opportunity to attack the city right after the Demon Beast wave had just receded?”

Miao Sensen continued: “For us, Yan State, to slap the face of the Purple Emperor? As soon as it was heard that the Great Yan’s Purple Emperor was helping Yuezhou defend the city, even the Qi Army immediately retreated a thousand miles, fearing the misunderstanding of the Purple Emperor and inviting unnecessary trouble…How could we attack under such circumstances?”

“At that time, it was appropriate for all nations to unite and resist the Demon Tribe’s onslaught. You were suggesting attacking Yuezhou then? Have you gone insane or have I?”

“But the Purple Emperor is a strong figure of the Cloud Top category, from a military and political perspective. He can be said to be the Purple Emperor of the world, not just of Great Yan! It can be justified in any way!”

Bai Yihwen said.

“You’d better shut up now, I’m scared I might not be able to resist and end up killing you.”

Miao Sensen was quite upset, “The Purple Emperor is the Purple Emperor of the Great Yan! There is no world’s Emperor, neither the Emperor of the realms!”

Bai Yihwen’s face was full of deflation.

Yes, the whole country is saying so, what good is it if I am the only one who is sober?

The Purple Emperor must have been framed…he is stuck in a quagmire and trapped there, how is he going to protect the cities of the human race?

Even though some of the court officials understood, they were unwilling to slap the Purple Emperor in the face at that time and risk his angry backlash: Me defending the city with one foot, and you attacking the city with the other?

So… they could only watch as the golden opportunity was lost, Yuezhou City built taller, stronger, and thicker walls than before, and the military and civilians united to weather the difficult times.

And then the sever winter snowstorm hit!

Bai Yihwen, who had intentions to act, was left powerless!

This outcome left him unspeakably disheartened. At no other time had he ever craved power so much.

If the power to mobilize troops had been in his hands… at that time, Yuezhou would have already been Great Yan’s territory!

How hateful, how infuriating!

“Bai Yihwen, do you think you’re the only one who knows what’s going on? Do you know that Great Qi even sent a letter of state, ostensibly concerned about the Purple Emperor’s injuries after the battle, and even sent spirit medicinal herbs. But the real purpose is clear to everyone. They were obviously inquiring: why did your Purple Emperor go to defend Yuezhou City?”

“What could the civilians and court officials do? For the sake of saving face, they had to grit their teeth and reply that the Purple Emperor was doing so for the sake of the world’s people…”

Miao Sensen sighed, “This led Qi Country to retreat its troops out of concern… but once Qi retreated, we were even less able to advance. At that time, winter was about to set in, and once the weather turned cold, we risked the entire force being annihilated by the Qin army!”

Bai Yihwen rubbed his temples in a headache: “But having lost that opportunity, how can we successfully attack Yuezhou head-on?”

Miao Sensen was indifferent, “Why do you worry about things that aren’t your business? We are the Black Feathers, not the Yan Army, and you are the Black Feather military advisor, not the Yan military advisor, why do you worry so much?”

These words, though seemingly brash,

Bai Yihwen understood in his heart.

His superior was clearly dissatisfied with him.

Even though his family background was powerful and he had a strong backing, Miao Sensen was ultimately his immediate superior. After dealing with recent events, Miao Sensen had taken a lot of blame for him, truly exerting the true nature of a good superior.

As Miao Sensen often said: Focus on your duties and don’t worry about the emperor’s worries, it’s meaningless.

The words were rough but made sense, Bai Yihwen also knew he had overstepped his bounds.

But watching Great Yan lose a golden opportunity, it was truly unbearable, as if his heart was dripping blood.

“Boss, you didn’t see. Now in the southern region of Great Qin, there’s Wu Tiejun, Fei Xinyu, Ma Qiange, Huo Zongnan…”

Bai Yihwen tried to persuade his boss earnestly: “Huo Zongnan, an old military commander, has an average prestige in the military, but this Ghost General Fei Xinyu, the Invincible Commander Wu Tiejun, and the universally recognized Tiger of the World Ma Qiange, form a super luxurious assembly of the young generation from the peaceful continent.”
