Chapter 309 No Solution
With the addition of Jiang Qi's 10,000 elite troops, the chaos caused by Situ Yidong's capture was quickly stabilized.
Both sides won and lost until the third day after Meixiang set out, when Liuzhou Prefecture welcomed Situ Yixu's army, which completely reversed the stalemate.
After Situ Yixu settled the army, he first went to Liu's house to meet the beautiful woman, and then discussed the follow-up arrangements with Chu Zeming, Feng Yizheng and others.
Although Meixiang was not there, the meetings after dinner at the Liu Mansion had never stopped, even though sometimes only two people participated. It seemed to have become a kind of after-dinner ritual at the Liu Mansion.
Today was no exception. When Situ Yixu arrived at Liu's house, the sun had already set. After the beautiful woman asked about his plans, she invited him to stay for dinner.
After hearing the result of Chu Zeming's divination, Situ Yixu felt relieved. Just like the people of Haoyue worship the four great families, the Wang, Feng, and Situ families worshipped the divination technique passed down by the Chu family, and they felt more at ease, and even relied on it for major events.
Because the Chu family has the strength.
After feeling relieved, Situ Yixu was quickly attracted by the after-dinner meeting at Liu's house. Holding tea bowls, regardless of status or size, everyone spoke freely, and many things were decided in this conversation.
If Meixiang were here, she would prefer to describe this activity with a modern term - brainstorming.
In the tent of the eldest prince of Yin State, the battle had been going on for nearly twenty days. Not only had they not yet reached the bright moon, but their own side had also suffered heavy casualties and had to wait for the arrival of Situ Yixu's army.
Morale was low, and some even began to doubt the war they had started. The eldest prince had to severely punish those who participated in the speech to barely suppress the trend.
This also served as a warning to the eldest prince and his men that if they continued like this, they would surely be defeated.
"Why did Situ Yixu come so quickly? And he brought so many soldiers with him. What should we do next?" The eldest prince was a little exasperated.
The fox chief looked at the eldest prince who had lost his composure and for the first time began to feel disappointed. Victory and defeat are common in the military, and a mature general should be more calm and composed when he is losing.
The best strategy is to do everything you can to boost morale and increase confidence, rather than losing your temper and holding your subordinates accountable.
But since we have already boarded the pirate ship, we can only grit our teeth and persevere.
Sighing secretly, the Fox Chief took over the topic, "Rat Chief, how long can our food and grass last?"
Food and fodder are essential supplies for marching and fighting, and the Rat Chief is in charge of the logistics matters this time.
The Rat Chief calculated carefully before replying: "According to the current consumption rate, it can only last for a month at most."
"No news from home yet?"
The Rat Chief shook his head. He had been feeling a little uneasy lately. Ever since the army set out, he had not received any word from home, let alone logistical supplies.
This is obviously unreasonable, but they are thousands of miles away and know exactly what happened. This is the most worrying thing.
"Your Highness, have you received the letter from the Prime Minister?" The fox chief turned to look at the eldest prince.
"No, no." He was surprised to realize that he had not received any news from the Prime Minister for a long time.
"Should we send someone back to check what's going on? Don't let anything go wrong and we won't know about it?!"
Hearing this, Chief Leopard and Chief Mouse nodded at the same time and looked towards the eldest prince who was sitting at the top.
"Then I'll trouble Chief Fox to send someone back to check."
Although I felt a little panicked, I still had to do everything I had to do.
The fox chief looked at Soma, who was sitting opposite him with his head down and silent.
The round in which Situ Yidong was captured was the most satisfying one since their confrontation with Haoyue. Now they would often recall it to motivate themselves.
But ever since he was abducted, Soma has clearly not been in good shape.
"Saint Soma, how much usable powder do you have?"
Soma sat there with his head bowed, motionless.
"Saint Soma!" The Fox Chief couldn't help but raise his voice.
The attention of the other three people was also drawn over, and they discovered that Soma was abnormal.
They didn't have much hope for this so-called saint, they just used her identity to justify their actions. However, her obviously contemptuous attitude still succeeded in causing dissatisfaction among the clan leaders.
"Ah?!" Soma, who was awakened, raised his head in confusion, "What are you talking about?"
The fox clan leader suppressed his anger and repeated the question he had just asked, adding at the end: "I am very curious, what was the saint thinking about just now?"
Hearing this, Soma glanced at the king and the three clan leaders opposite her. She reacted and realized that it would be difficult to convince the public if she didn't give a reasonable explanation.
After rolling his eyes a few times, he replied in a calm voice: "I just heard the analysis of the current situation by the clan leaders. I am also very anxious. I am thinking about how I can help everyone."
"Oh? Have you thought of any good ideas?"
Hearing this teasing question, Soma felt annoyed, but he had to suppress it temporarily and patiently explained, "I still have a dozen packets of powder in my hand. As long as you inhale it, it will make people faint in a moment. I will send someone to deliver it to the Rat Chief later."
"As for when we can use it, as long as we find the right time, we won't have to worry about defeating the enemy. Since we can capture Situ Yidong alive, we can also capture his brother, Situ Yixu, alive again. By then, we will be leaderless..."
Hearing this, the eldest prince shook off his previous lethargy and clapped his hands in praise, "Good, good, good."
The Rat Clan leader also stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Then I'll have to trouble the Saint to deliver it directly to my tent tonight."
"That's no problem, but I have a suggestion. I wonder if I can tell you?" Soma asked carefully, looking at a loss.
"If the Saint has any good ideas, please tell me." The eldest prince has now regained the heroic spirit he had when he went to war.
Soma glanced at Captain Fox who had been secretly watching her, and chose her words carefully: "I just heard everyone say that they are going to send people back to the tribe. I can go back quietly."
This successfully attracted everyone's attention. "First, my identity will not blink so easily. Second, I need to go back to the tribe to collect herbs and make more medicinal powder to send over. As for the third point..."
Soma took a breath and spoke in a deeper voice, "Third, I will bring Situ Yidong back to the tribe with me, to help restrain Haoyue and increase our bargaining chips in future negotiations with them."
Seeing that no one responded, Soma had to speak more strongly: "It's really unsafe to leave him here now. Not only could he wake up at any time, but we also have to distract ourselves to prevent the other party from coming to rescue him at any time. If he is with the clan leader, no matter how capable Ren Haoyue is, he will be helpless."
