"That's good!"
In the front hall of the relay station, Li Junxian nodded in agreement. "Army Attaché Fang and the majority of his subordinates will be responsible for the security of Taiyuan City. Governor Wang and the bailiffs of Taiyuan City will be responsible for the security of the city. Until His Highness is rescued, the gates of Taiyuan City will remain closed!
While the gates are closed, the lives of the common people will be somewhat affected, but given the rations stored in Taiyuan City, their food and drink shouldn't be affected. In the next few days, everyone must ensure that the city does not fall into chaos! If there is a shortage of supplies in the city, you can send someone out to purchase supplies and transport them back to the city to provide for the daily needs of the common people! "
"This lowly official (this general) will go!"
Wang Liaoyuan and Fang Gongteng bowed and accepted the order.
One of them was in charge of Taiyuan City's government affairs while the other was in charge of its military affairs. Now that the situation was urgent, they could finally work together!
Seeing that Wang Liaoyuan and Fang Gongteng had their own missions, Dugu Feiying eagerly looked at Li Junxian, clearly hoping that Li Junxian would quickly assign him a mission.
Li Junxian did not disappoint him, turning to Wang Chong.
"Feiying, the Imperial Army's primary mission for the next few days is to protect the students and teachers of Yanhuang College. Although the Turkic spies have kidnapped His Highness, there's a high chance that they've come for the students and teachers of Yanhuang College. The construction of the telegraph relay station in Taiyuan City is bad news for the Turks, so they'll definitely do everything they can to obstruct, destroy, and even kidnap the students and teachers of the college! We have to be on guard against this. We can't let the Turkic spies take any more hostages! "
"… Okay … but, is that all?"
Dugu Feiying nodded, but when Li Junxian seemed to have nothing else to say, he couldn't help but say in dissatisfaction, "General Li, the Turkic spies almost took my big brother's life. I must participate in this operation to rescue King Wei!"
Li Junxian thought about it, but in the end, he did not refuse Dugu Feiying's request. He nodded and said, "Fine! But no mistakes can be allowed in the process of rescuing His Highness. You must obey orders and not act impulsively or emotionally! Understand? "
Dugu Feiying was overjoyed when he heard that. How could he not agree? He nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice and said, "Of course! Of course! Don't worry, General Li. I know my priorities! "
Somewhat reassured, Li Junxian continued, "Then once we're done with the assignment, this general and you will select a few experts from the one hundred cavalry and the Imperial Army to head to the vicinity of Tongfu Inn. We'll first investigate the situation there, and then we can discuss how to rescue King Wei!"
Dugu Feiying's spirit was roused. He cupped his fists and said, "This general obeys!"
A hint of hesitation appeared on Iron Egg's face. He naturally wanted to participate in this rescue mission for Li Tai more than anyone else, but Li Tai had said just now that only experts would be sent to Tongfu Inn. This was clearly for the sake of secrecy. After all, experts were not easy to discover!
And he was only a Qi Transformation realm martial artist. He was also worried that his participation would increase the chances of the Turkic spies discovering them. For a moment, Iron Egg was very conflicted!
Li Junxian's eyes were like torches, and he naturally saw the expression on Iron Egg's face. He turned to Iron Egg, Han Lizheng, and Wang Yu.
"Master Han, Iron Egg, and Wang Chengwu of the Wang Clan also need to participate in this rescue mission! The Turkic spies are holding His Highness hostage, so we cannot use our army to attack them directly. We can only use a small number of experts to attack them from the shadows. It would be best if we could sneak into the place where His Highness is being held, but if we can't, we can only slowly wait for the enemy to reveal a flaw. We can't be too hasty and make them desperate enough to threaten His Highness's life! "
It was clear that Li Junxian was well aware that this rescue mission for Li Tai was not a guarantee of success just because they had tens of thousands of soldiers. The enemy had Li Tai as a hostage, and they could take Li Tai's life at any time. In these circumstances, they could not use their army to surround and attack. Their only chance was to use a few martial arts experts to sneak in or find an opportunity!
Although Han Lizheng had an internal injury on his leg, he was still as strong as a grandmaster. Iron Egg was a little weaker, but he was younger, smaller, and more agile. Moreover, he was not easy to discover. As for Wang Chengwu, he was even stronger than Li Junxian! Thus, the three of them naturally had the right to participate in this rescue mission!
Han Lizheng and Iron Egg were invigorated and hastily clasped their fists.
"This one will go!"
Wang Yu excitedly clasped his hands and said, "Everyone in the Wang Clan will follow General Li's orders. In a little while, Chengwu will come to receive General Li's orders!"
For Wang Yu, it would be best if the Wang Clan could play a part in this rescue mission for Li Tai. Let alone Wang Chengwu, even if Li Junxian wanted to mobilize all the Wang Clan's shadow guards, he wouldn't even bat an eye. He would even be more than happy to do so. After all, the Wang Clan needed to use action to 'atone' for its crimes', to show its' loyalty 'to Li Er!
Li Junxian nodded and sternly said, "Okay! Since you all know your mission, let's begin! "
"Yes!"
