Chapter 1196: Chapter 1190: All or Nothing

"Yes!" Liu Pinggao responded and was about to issue the order when Bai Qingyan suddenly called him back, "Wait!"

Liu Pinggao turned back.

Bai Qingyan, with a calm expression, raised a hand to cover his lips and whispered something to Liu Pinggao, who nodded solemnly, "Rest assured, Your Majesty!"

"Return immediately after delivering the order, and we will discuss how to engage the enemy next!" Bai Qingyan said.

"Yes!" Liu Pinggao leaped onto his horse and left.

Wei Zhong, following Bai Qingyan, instructed someone to bring the map of Jiangzi City.

This Jiangzi City originally belonged to the Xiliang people, so General Cui would definitely have the city layout map, meaning that this battle... if it really ensues, will be more challenging for Zhou. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Wei Zhong had someone bring in candlelight to make the place brighter.

Bai Qingyan stood in front of the construction map of Jiangzi City, studying it carefully.

Soon, all the commanders except Liu Pinggao, who had just gone to deliver the order, arrived.

Among them were familiar faces, Du Sanbao, and also Wang Jin from the Flying Bear Camp, who had once followed Bai Qingyan in Daliang to rescue Bai Jinzhi.

"Your Majesty!" Du Sanbao saluted Bai Qingyan.

The flickering candlelight in the barracks clearly illuminated the tense features of these commanders.

Bai Qingyan raised his gaze, looking towards the generals...

"This time, with Xiliang besieging the city, it’s either to capture me, the Emperor of Zhou, to restrain the Zhou army attacking Yunjing, or to lure the Zhou army to retreat and save me for an ambush in between!" Bai Qingyan walked from behind the table to the front, "But... for us in Zhou, the best option is not to have the troops heading to Yunjing retreat!"

The generals in the barracks understood from Bai Qingyan’s words that he intended to hold Jiangzi City to the death.

"But Your Majesty!" Du Sanbao, with a grave expression, knelt on one knee before Bai Qingyan, clasped hands, "We, the commanders, are not important, but you are the Emperor of Zhou, you must not be harmed! If Your Majesty thinks the troops heading to Yunjing should not retreat to save you, then... I implore to lead and fight a bloody path with all soldiers in the city to escort Your Majesty out!"
