Chapter 1091: Chapter 283: The Beginning of Turbulence_4

"Yes!" All the generals stood up in unison, promptly saluting.

"Perhaps all the high priests of the Expeditionary Sacrificial Group could join the vanguard’s operations tomorrow, to see how our Imperial Guard fights!" Kahn addressed Liu Zhenhan politely, nodding, "Honorable Richard, with your air cavalry numbering more than four hundred, could you possibly allocate some to support our aerial combat?"

"No problem! After hearing about those oil lamp-wielding Vulture People, I’ve been itching to get involved!" Liu Zhenhan chuckled.

"Your Majesty, there’s a minor issue I’d like to ask your help for!" Kahn looked at the Shaman of Divine Songs very seriously, "Half of our expeditionary army’s supplies are still en route. The Cambridge brigade tasked with escorting them is a considerable distance from the main force and is estimated to arrive at the oasis the day after tomorrow. If tomorrow’s battle goes well, the whole corps will move out, but the Yale Oasis’s current supplies will need protection until the Cambridge brigade arrives, completing the oasis’s defense capabilities. I wonder... if Your Majesty would temporarily take on this responsibility..."

"Oh? Your Highness means to appoint me as the supply guard?" Liu Zhenhan couldn’t help but laugh helplessly. More than a hundred li north of Yale Oasis lies the Transverse Mountain Range in the middle of Taklamakan Desert, which, though having a weathered gap stretching tens of li, can only be traversed by Beamon’s whole army to reach the desert’s hinterland. Where the great army has passed, what small fry could infiltrate Yale Oasis?

Not so long ago, they had pushed me to the forefront as cannon fodder, and now they pull me to the back? Liu Zhenhan felt he didn’t quite understand the prince’s intentions.

"The safety of the supply base affects the life of the whole Expeditionary Army! In military strategy, the most ruthless tactic is to cut off supplies! Better safe than sorry, although the possibility of enemy penetration isn’t high, I cannot be too cautious. After all, we have many prisoners here, and we know nothing about the enemy’s air force numbers. I plan to have Lord Mourinho’s three children stay behind to assist Your Majesty!" Kahn, sensing the Shaman of Divine Songs’s confusion, spoke very earnestly, "Once the Cambridge brigade arrives at Yale Oasis and Your Majesty hands over the duties, given your mobility, you can easily catch up with the main force for later battles; thus I think no one is better suited for this critical task."

Indeed, a seasoned and composed great general, one must admit, beneath Kahn’s seemingly rough exterior, he had contemplated everything, even such details. All the officers admired him silently.

"It is my honor." Liu Zhenhan nodded firmly.

Guarding the supplies was indeed crucial. As a child, Liu Zhenhan listened to tales of the Three Kingdoms, where every grain escort was a leading brave general. Kahn assigning him this role truly showed his significance! Being able to cooperate with Gortani under the guise of official duty, Liu Zhenhan naturally wouldn’t refuse.

However, he immediately tensed up. The Cambridge brigade’s supply guard arriving the day after tomorrow? Wasn’t that the exact deadline of the six-day pregnancy prophecy made by the nun Joan of Arc?

By that day, the main army of the entire oasis would have already moved out, and there might indeed be an opportunity to fulfill the promise. Thinking about this, Liu Zhenhan smiled like a hyena.

The entire tent of people got the chills from his laugh.
