Old Man Tian Kui died with great reluctance. In the final moments of his life, he was filled with regret. He could have lived a good life, but because of a mistake in intelligence, and because he was too confident in himself, he ended up losing his life.
As a matter of fact, Old Man Tian Kui didn't know that he would die sooner or later after joining the war. The arrival of Jiang Chen, Jiu Wangye and Yang Bufan indicated that a life-and-death battle was about to begin. Not only would Old Man Tian Kui die, but Yun Tianshuang and the three eccentrics would also die.
This was the purpose of Jiang Chen's visit. If he couldn't get rid of all the enemies, then it would be meaningless for him to take action this time.
The fact that Yang Bufan killed Old Man Tian Kui with his own hands and the fierce battle between him and Old Man Tian Kui was witnessed by everyone below. This had thoroughly established Yang Bufan's prestige and status. In the hearts of countless soldiers, Yang Bufan was the next monarch of Great Qian Empire. Other than Yang Bufan, they wouldn't be convinced if it was any other prince.
"All hail King Fan. Should we continue to advance and recover our lost territory? The death of Old Man Tian Kui will surely have a great impact on the morale of Great Cloud Empire and Heavenly Jade Dynasty."
Liu Lang said.
Yang Bufan and Jiu Wangye nodded in agreement, but their eyes still fell on Jiang Chen. After all, it was up to Jiang Chen to make the decision.
"As long as Yun Tianshuang is alive, the morale of Great Cloud Empire will never be extinguished. It can be reignited at any time. Old Man Tian Kui is nothing, but the death of Old Man Tian Kui has opened the curtains for the final battle. We don't need to continue. It's just a waste of time and energy."
Jiang Chen waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to continue.
"Little Chenzi, what's your plan?"
Yang Bufan asked. He knew that although he was King Fan and had never flinched in a battle, there was still a gap between him and Jiang Chen in terms of wisdom. Jiang Chen had always been meticulous and insightful. At the critical moment, it was still necessary to rely on Jiang Chen. This was also the reason why the Emperor appointed Jiang Chen as the commander instead of Yang Bufan.
Liu Lang and the other generals turned to look at Jiang Chen. They didn't understand why Jiang Chen made such a decision. In their opinion, the best way to achieve the best effect was to strike the enemy's morale and raise their own morale to the peak. Old Man Tian Kui had just been killed, but Jiang Chen gave up at this critical moment. They wanted to know what was in Jiang Chen's mind.
"The reason is very simple. Our army's morale has been fully restored after we have recovered ten cities in a row. There's no need to rely on this method to recover our lost territories anymore. Next, it's time to show the dignity of our soldiers and commander. Yun Tianshuang will soon know about the death of Old Man Tian Kui. I'm afraid that Yun Tianshuang has already arrived even if we attack another city. The ultimate battle is coming soon. We don't need to recover the lost territories one by one. As long as we kill Yun Tianshuang and those three eccentrics, all the lost territories will automatically return to us."
Jiang Chen spoke. With the death of Old Man Tian Kui, the moment of the ultimate battle had arrived. The goal of boosting morale had been achieved and King Fan's status had been established. What they needed to do now was to kill Yun Tianshuang. If they couldn't kill Yun Tianshuang, it would be useless no matter how many lost territories were recovered.
Jiang Chen never liked to take detours or do useless things. He always used the simplest and most direct way to achieve his goal. Now that the morale and King Fan's goal had been achieved, the next target would be Yun Tianshuang.
After listening to Jiang Chen's words, all the soldiers fell silent. They weren't fools. They knew that Jiang Chen's words were right. No matter what the outcome of this battle was, they would have to fight Yun Tianshuang in the end.
"Alright. Are we going to attack Crane Hawk City?"
Asked Yang Bufan.
"No. It's not suitable for a large-scale battle to take place outside the city. Crane Hawk City is, after all, the territory of Great Qian Empire. The people living in it are also the people of Great Qian Empire. We have to consider their safety."
Jiang Chen said, then turned to Liu Lang. "Liu Lang, is there a deserted place around here?"
"Commander, there's Black Wind Ridge three thousand miles away from here. It's desolate and there's a black wind blowing."
Said Liu Lang.
"Alright. King Fan, draft a letter of challenge in your name and send it to Yun Tianshuang. He will definitely come for the life-and-death battle in Black Wind Ridge tomorrow."
Jiang Chen said. They had to be the ones to issue the letter of challenge. This would make Great Qian Empire look more imposing and not put Yun Tianshuang in their eyes. This was also a way to show the dignity of the empire.
"Alright."
Yang Bufan smiled. With a flick of his arm, a golden light emerged and condensed into an illusory piece of paper. Yang Bufan's finger slid back and forth on it. Immediately, a letter of challenge was formed.
Then, with a flick of his finger, the letter of challenge turned into a golden light and vanished into the void, heading towards Crane Hawk City.
"We'll stay in this city for today. Tomorrow, we'll fight Yun Tianshuang in Black Wind Ridge."
Jiang Chen said.
"Commander, Yun Tianshuang's cultivation base is very strong. What's more terrifying are the three eccentrics around him. Given our current strength, I'm afraid that we won't be able to win."
Liu Lang said worriedly. Not only him, but everyone else had the same thought. Although Yang Bufan and Jiu Wangye had won many battles since they arrived, they were still afraid of fighting Yun Tianshuang. After all, even General Lu Sheng was killed by the three eccentrics. On their side, they only had two experts, King Fan and Jiu Wangye.
As for Jiang Chen, apart from hearing about Jiang Chen's fame, they had never seen this young commander in action. Moreover, because they were in the border area, they had only heard about the earth-shattering things that Jiang Chen had done.
"General Liu, this is an order, not a discussion. All you have to do is to obey."
