Due to the previous mistake, Xuanyuan Di no longer trusted Zhou Ye. As a result, in the following days, Zhou Ye was constantly confined within Yan's Mansion by Xuanyuan Di, and Xuanyuan Di also ordered the guards to keep a close watch on Zhou Ye.
During the days trapped in Yan's Mansion, Zhou Ye pondered strategies every day. But the most important thing at the moment was how to escape from Yan's Mansion. For this reason, Zhou Ye spent each day hiding in the room, contemplating a plan.
On the other hand, because Zhou Ye was confined by Xuanyuan Di, the people around Xuanyuan Di were mostly ignorant of military formations, being either rough and tough or weak scholars with no strength.
Facing the current dilemma, everyone in the rebel camp was at a loss. Xuanyuan Di glanced at the generals and saw their dejected expressions, which made him furious. In a fit of anger, he threw his sword to the ground and scolded them, "We've only lost a couple of battles, and you're all acting so defeated? Useless! You're all a bunch of useless people! Are you planning to switch sides to the court after losing a couple more battles?" Seeing Xuanyuan Di so angry, the generals knelt in silence. Seeing their silence, Xuanyuan Di became even angrier and sarcastically asked, "So, have you all already decided when to surrender? Are you planning to offer me to my royal brother?" Hearing this, the kneeling generals dared not speak. After a while, one of them slowly spoke up, "Your Highness, please forgive us. We have never intended to surrender to the court. From the beginning to the end, we have always been loyal to you, Your Highness."
Xuanyuan Di Upon hearing this, I looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young junior officer. I walked over to him, helped him up, and kindly asked, "General, may I ask what your name is?" The junior officer stood up and replied calmly, "Your Highness, my name is Wei Wan, with the courtesy name Bo'an."
Xuanyuan Di solemnly placed his hand on Wei Wan's shoulder and said to the generals, "With General Wei, our great cause can be accomplished!"
He immediately said to Wei Wan, "General Wei, with your bravery, I have an important task to entrust to you now. I wonder if you dare to accept it?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Wan knelt before Xuanyuan Di and loudly said, "I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Highness, and I will not hesitate to die! Please give the order, Your Highness!"
Xuanyuan Di picked up an order arrow and held it in front of Wei Wan, saying lightly, "Good! I now promote you to the position of General of the Ferocious Might, with an increase in troops to six thousand. Immediately, lead your troops to intercept the enemy." After speaking, he handed the order arrow to Wei Wan.
Wei Wan solemnly accepted the order arrow from Xuanyuan Di and made a military oath: if he couldn't stop the imperial army, he would present his head. With these words, he left with long strides.
Xuanyuan Di stared closely at Wei Wan's back until he gradually disappeared from Xuanyuan Di's sight, then Xuanyuan Di withdrew his gaze. He murmured, "My son, you must bless General Wei to succeed. If we lose this battle again, morale will be destroyed!"
Xuanyuan Di kept staring in the direction where Wei Wan disappeared, not even noticing the arrival of the general by his side. It wasn't until the general called out "Your Highness, Xuanyuan Di finally came back to his senses.
Turning his head to the general, Xuanyuan Di asked, "What's the matter? Do you have something to report?"
Upon hearing this, the general cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, Yan State's king, what are the arrangements for the next steps?"
Xuanyuan Di fell into contemplation. At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind, and that figure was none other than Zhou Ye. Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Di turned to his general and asked, "Has that Zhou Ye been acting strangely recently?"
The general was taken aback for a moment, then replied, "Nothing strange for now. Just the usual eating, drinking, and other daily activities."
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Di furrowed his brow and a cold smile appeared on his lips as he said, "Seems like he's quite skilled. It's a pity that his abilities have little use here. This is a battlefield, not a place for scholars' jokes."
Then he ordered his subordinates, "Make sure to keep a close eye on that kid, don't let him escape. But remember, do not harm him. After all, his family is a family that cannot be easily offended."
The subordinate nodded and then slowly withdrew.
Two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty. Due to the continuous victories on the front lines, Shentu Yang made a decisive decision and ordered all units to quicken their pace and capture the surrounding states and counties as soon as possible. He also wrote a letter to the Ministry of Revenue to inquire about the arrival time of the logistical supplies.
After two days of fast riding, Shentu Yang's messenger finally returned to Luo Capital. He looked at the towering city walls of Luo Capital and almost fainted from excitement. However, he quickly dismounted and ran towards the direction of the Board of Revenue because he remembered that his mission was not yet complete.
At the same time, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Gu Yun, was chatting with the Left Privy Councilor of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhao Zhen. They were discussing how long the war could last. Their conversation was interrupted by a staff member who reported that a strangely dressed person had fainted outside the yamen and kept muttering about finding the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
Gu Yun and Zhao Zhen quickly stepped out to check the situation upon hearing the news. When they arrived at the yamen, they saw a young man in armor lying unconscious on the ground, clutching a letter in his hand and repeatedly muttering "Is the Ministry of Revenue Shangshu here?"
Upon seeing this, Gu Yun ordered the young man to be taken inside first, and then sent someone to find an doctor to examine him.
After careful treatment by the doctor, the young man finally woke up. Gu Yun sat by the bedside and gently asked the young man, "Who are you? What brings you to see me?"
Dīngníng struggled to get up and was about to bow to Gu Yun. Gu Yun waved his hand, indicating that Dīngníng need not be too polite. Dīngníng weakly said to Gu Yun, "Lord Gu, forgive me, I cannot bow. I came to deliver a letter from General Shentu to you." As he spoke, he took out Shentu Yang's letter and handed it to Gu Yun.
General Shentu? What could he want with me? Gu Yun wondered as he took the letter from Dīngníng.
Gu Yun Slowly opens the letter. Shentu Yang The message is very brief, just inquiring about the grain situation.
Gu Yun quickly finishes reading and then says to Dīngníng, "How should I address this general?"
Dīngníng hoarsely replies, "I am General Shentu's messenger - Dīngníng, Ding Fengyuan. It's fine to call me Dīngníng."
Gu Yun nodded politely, "Alright, Ding Xiaoyou. You rest well here first. I will write down the situation, and when you have rested, you can leave with my letter."
Dīngníng nodded excitedly, murmuring to himself, "Great, General will be so happy when he knows about this."
