Chapter 188: Let’s Take Action Tonight

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘Need someone to be bait?’

Shen Hezhi frowned. His expression turned grim as he thought of something. He asked, “Yunxi, do you plan to use yourself as bait?”

Yu Yunxi quickly nodded. “That’s right. I plan to use myself as bait. Nan Xun is determined to attack Xinan; he wants to conquer Xinan. Not only that, but he also wants revenge. In all of Xinan, the person he hates most is me.”

She took a deep breath before she continued to say, “If I personally lead the troops to fight, he’ll definitely chase after me at all costs.”

Li Song and the others looked at each other solemnly. Although her words made sense, they were not willing to let her take such risks.

Shen Hezhi and Shen Si wanted to refuse her, but at this moment, Feng Yili stood next to her and said firmly, “I’ll accompany you.”

Yu Yunxi’s expression changed a little when she heard these words. She was moved. She took a deep breath to calm down before she said to Shen Si, “Godfather, I have to lead the troops to fight Nanyue no matter what. This is no different from before. It’s just that the situation is a little different this time, and I’ll be bringing fewer men with me. In order to trick Nan Xun, we can only do this…”

Shen Si shook his head and sighed as he listened to Yu Yunxi’s analysis. Finally, he said in a complicated tone, “It’s been hard on you, and it’s going to get harder…

In fact, in Shen Si’s opinion, Yu Yunxi did not have to shoulder so much.

“Godfather, Xinan is my home. I’m happy to protect my home. Let’s discuss how to carry out this plan,” Yu Yunxi said to Shen Si before she began to point at the map and analyze the situation.

“Look, this is Bright Moon Mountain. The mountain path is narrow so it’s a perfect place to attack. As long as we can occupy the mountain in advance, our chances of winning are very high. Here, from the mountain pass, we’ll split into two groups. The group on the left will go up the mountain, and the group on the right won’t.”

“It’s easy to set up an ambush on the left path. General Li and I will lead the people from Nanyue there. I’ll go up from the left and lead them to the top while the people lying in wait can take action…”

“As for General Li, he’ll go down the right path. General Zhu will meet him there. This way, even if Nanyue chases them there, their chances of winning are also relatively high.”

Yu Yunxi analyzed the situation patiently.

Li Song said. “Countv Princess. what vou mean is that vou’ll go uD the

mountain while I go around the mountain, right? Not only that, but I’ll also be taking most of the men with me?”

“That’s right. I can’t bring too many people. With this, Nan Xun won’t be so suspicious and will chase after me, thinking I’m at my wit’s end. The traps on the mountain will be very useful at that time. Nan Xun will definitely bring his trusted aides with him. Our goal is very simple. There’s no need for us to kill a lot of soldiers from Nanyue. What we want is to kill their generals.” Without a leader, the others would be without directions, giving Xinan a chance to defeat Nanyue.

Zhu Sheng shook his head and said worriedly, “However, Nanyue’s troops are watching us so closely now. How can we set up traps on the mountain?”

Yu Yunxi asked, “Do you remember before I left the capital, I used to leave the city to climb the mountain?”

Everyone was stunned for a moment before they nodded.

“Of course, I remember. Because you left the city so often, Junjin thought something bad had happened,” Shen Hezhi said helplessly.

A sheepish expression briefly appeared on Yu Yunxi’s face before she said softly, “At that time, I went to the mountain to set up traps. Those traps are probably still there and still can be used by us…”

Everyone looked at Yu Yunxi in shock when they learned that she had set up traps in advance.

Shen Si asked, “Yunxi, did you already foresee that Nanyue would do this?”

“Not really. The traps were not targeted at Nanyue. Xinan’s location is special so many people covet it. I didn’t know how long I’d be in the capital at that time so I just wanted to do more for Xinan,” Yu Yunxi explained.

Realization dawned on everyone, and their feelings were complicated when they thought about how much Yu Yunxi had done for Xinan.

Feng Yili’s gaze darkened slightly as he looked at the determined expression on Yu Yunxi’s face. He understood even more now why she had hated him for stopping her from returning to Xinan. In her heart, Xinan was like her life.

Yu Yunxi nodded at everyone before she pointed at the map again.

“Let me tell you where I set those traps…”

There were 30 traps in total in various places.

“No matter how powerful he is, it’ll be difficult for him to escape once he enters this place,” Yu Yunxi said.

“Brilliant!”

Li Song could not help but clap his hands after listening to Yu Yunxi. The ingenuity of setting up these traps in advance was something that even he, an old general who had fought for many years, failed to think of. With these traps, Xinan had a very high chance of winning.

“We have hope!” Zhu Sheng nodded.

“I plan to take action tonight. With the dark cover of the sky, it’ll be even more difficult for the people from Nanyue to notice the traps. Whether this plan will work or not will depend on the cooperation between the two generals,” Yu Yunxi said, looking at Li Song and Zhu Sheng.

“Just give us your orders, County Princess! It’s fine even if we have to risk our lives!” Li Song said excitedly as his blood boiled.

“I want to help as well!” Han Na said.

“No. General Han, you’re still injured,” Yu Yunxi said, shaking her head.

Li Song chimed in, “That’s right, General Han. I know that you can’t wait to kill those from Nanyue. However, your health is more important. Tonight, we’ll make the first move and avenge you!”

“But, I…” Han Na frowned, intending to protest.

“General Han, if you really want to help us, you can guard the city gate,” Yu Yunxi said.

Now that he was also assigned a mission, Han Na felt relieved.

“Alright, County Princess. I’ll complete my mission!”

“Yunxi, I’ll accompany you and become bait as well,” Shen Si said seriously.

“No,” Shen Hezhi said without hesitation, “Father, you’re the lord of the city. Your safety is of utmost importance, and you can’t take such a risk. I’ll go with

Yunxi.”

“Brother…” Yu Yunxi called out. Initially, she wanted to stop Shen Hezhi, but she recalled that he said he would rather die on the battlefield than die in bed. Her heart was heavy and in pain when she thought about this. She clenched her hands tightly as she said, “Okay, Brother.. Let’s work together to defeat Nanyue again!”
