2286. Chapter 2286 Son kills father, father kills son 8
Gao Huan immediately knelt down: "Your Majesty, you must not do it, you must not do it... I am not the only one who leads such a large army. How can we convince the public? Besides, it is common for military strategists. War cannot solve problems overnight. Ours
Logistics and supplies haven’t caught up yet, so if we rush into a decisive battle with the Northern Army, it will definitely be disastrous..."
At this time, the third prince suddenly stood up, with a humble attitude and a sincere tone: "Your Majesty, Generalissimo, Xiao Wang has something to say. No one knows the situation in the North better than Xiao Wang. After the showdown between the imperial court and the temple,
The temple was washed with blood, public resentment boiled, and Pingcheng suffered another fire. Now is the time when people are panicking. We should make a decision immediately and catch them off guard before they can catch their breath. Otherwise, we will wait for Pingcheng.
Once the order is stabilized and the economy has been restored, the Northern Emperor will be free to deal with us. The war in the North should be fought sooner rather than later, faster rather than slower... Please take a look, this is a topographic map hand-drawn by Xiao Wang...

All the generals also whispered.
However, Gao Huan still felt something was wrong. Just as he was about to say something, Emperor Qi had already spoken first: "Since the third prince is ready, that's it."
"No... Your Majesty, no... an army of 100,000..."
"Since the Generalissimo feels that an army of one hundred thousand is too much, he will give fifty thousand. Everyone obeys, I announce that I will appoint the third prince as the vanguard of the expedition and lead fifty thousand soldiers and horses as the vanguard to attack Qi."
The emperor has issued an imperial edict, what else dare others say?
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. Xiao Wang will definitely fulfill his mission."
Although Gao Huan reduced the number of troops by 50,000 with just one sentence, the third prince was already extremely excited. This was much higher than his original expectations.
Gao Huan knelt on the ground and casually observed the handsome, humble and cautious face of the third prince. Only then did he really take a liking to this guy.
