After listening to the advice, I rebelled and became an emperor of all ages

The rebels' temporary camp was surrounded by deathly silence.

At this time, Lin Zhongyun was leaning over a spread-out map, his brows furrowed, a hint of melancholy in his expression.

His eyes were focused and deep, as if he was looking for the spark of hope in every corner of the map.

His finger moved slowly across the map, trying to find a flaw in Hailanhak's defense.

However, Hailanhake's defense was like an insurmountable barrier, making it difficult for him to find a breakthrough for a while.

The entire camp was shrouded in a depressing and dull atmosphere, with tension and uneasiness in the air. The soldiers talked in low voices with solemn expressions, as if an invisible storm was about to come.

The low-pitched discussions were carried into the tent through the air and kept lingering in his ears.

This made him extremely upset. If he allowed this emotion to continue to spread, there was a high possibility of a mutiny within the rebel army before the Northern Barbarians launched an attack.

After this breakout, his previously accumulated prestige has reached its peak. Now, although the people around him are all loyal to him, they have been with him since the uprising.

He understood that these people might not attack him, but faced with endless despair and the threat of death, there was a great possibility that they would flee.

Time is passing quietly, and along with it the patience of his subordinates.

Moreover, he has not been in contact with the rebel army outside for such a long time. No one can guarantee that the tens of thousands of troops under his command will not abandon him and go away.

And if their offensive against Hailanhak weakened, then Hailanhak would most likely withdraw his forces and join forces with Chagan Uli to deal with him.

Although they heard the news that Hailanhaq and Chagan Uli were not on good terms last time, no one could guarantee that Hailanhaq would really abandon the future of Beiman for his own ambitions.

What's more, he is the one regarded as the number one enemy by the Northern Barbarians.

Therefore, at this moment, the only one he can rely on is himself, and even time is his enemy.

Just then, the sound of hurried horse hooves came from afar, breaking the silence of the camp.

He slowly raised his head and saw Yuan Jingxin leading a team of cavalry galloping towards him, with a northern barbarian captive tied to the horse's back.

Before Yuan Jingxin even arrived at the camp, he couldn't wait to shout, "Your Highness! Your Highness! Things have taken a turn for the better!"

His voice was filled with excitement that was hard to conceal and his face was filled with the joy of victory.

Hearing this, Lin Zhongyun stood up with a hint of expectation in his eyes. He knew that this unexpected gain might bring them new hope.

"Why? What are you so excited about?" Lin Zhongyun asked calmly, even though his heart was already beginning to stir.

Yuan Jingxin tightened the reins and quickly jumped off the horse. He bowed respectfully to His Highness and began to report impatiently: "Your Highness, we unexpectedly discovered a Northern Barbarian scout while on patrol."

After our careful questioning, we got a shocking piece of news. I am sure that His Royal Highness will be very happy once he learns of this news. "

Lin Zhongyun narrowed his eyes slightly and motioned Yuan Jingxin to continue.

His heart was filled with anticipation, but at the same time he felt a little uneasy, worried that the news might be just an unfounded rumor.

Yuan Jingxin took a deep breath, lowered his voice, and said carefully: "We learned that General Li Zhongwu was not dead, he was just captured by the Northern Barbarians.

The Northern Barbarians did not kill him, but planned to escort him to Hailanhak."

This news was like a sudden bolt of lightning, instantly striking Lin Zhongyun's heart.

This news was like a sudden lightning, instantly striking Lin Zhongyun's heart. His eyes widened, and a huge wave of emotion was set off in his heart.

He observed Yuan Jingxin carefully and found that the other party's expression did not seem to be joking. He took a deep breath and asked solemnly: "Is what you said true? Will the Northern Barbarians really release General Zhongwu?"

It’s not that he didn’t believe Yuan Jingxin, but the news was too shocking and surprising for him.

In the past few days, he had been tossing and turning because of Li Zhongwu's matter, unable to fall asleep. Until now, Li Zhongwu's resolute scene was still deeply imprinted in his mind and could not be erased.

Now, hearing the news that Li Zhongwu was still alive, the light of hope was rekindled in his heart.

If the information he obtained this time was indeed true, he would try every possible means to rescue Li Zhongwu from the Northern Barbarians.

Yuan Jingxin was also very excited at the moment, and continued, "Your Highness, rest assured, this news is absolutely true. It turns out that Chagan Wuli wanted to escort General Li Zhongwu to the front line to deal with our outsiders and completely crush our morale, so he didn't kill General Li immediately."

"Ok!"

Lin Zhongyun nodded thoughtfully after hearing this. This was exactly what Chagan Wuli would do.

This move was indeed a good one, because if it were him, he would also maximize Li Zhongwu's role.

However, doing so also provided him with an opportunity, a chance to make a comeback.

Besides, a great idea came into his mind.

"Jingxin, very good, you did a good job!"

He looked at Yuan Jingxin with admiration, with a hint of excitement in his voice.

Yuan Jingxin asked excitedly, "Your Highness, should we immediately prepare for the operation to rescue General Li?"

He seemed very anxious, as if he couldn't wait to rescue Li Zhongwu from the predicament.

However, Lin Zhongyun's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations. His eyes became deep, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He slowly said, "No hurry, we still need to wait for the right time."

This answer surprised Yuan Jingxin very much, "Your Highness, this..."

Before Yuan Jingxin could finish his words, Lin Zhongyun asked, "Do you still remember the intelligence we got last time?"

"What was the intelligence you got last time?"

Yuan Jingxin tilted his head and tried to recall, "Your Highness, are you referring to the information about the rift between Hailanhak and Chagan Uli?"

Although he understood that Chagan Uli and Hailanhak were not of the same mind, he could not understand how this had any direct connection with saving Li Zhongwu.

Lin Zhongyun nodded with satisfaction, a glimmer of approval flashed in his eyes. Then he continued to ask, "How many people did the Northern Barbarians send to convey this information this time?" Normally, one or two people would be enough for an ordinary military report, but for an emergency military report like this, several people would usually be sent to deliver the information in different directions.

This is done to ensure that military intelligence can be transmitted in a timely and accurate manner to the greatest extent possible, but it also increases the chances of the enemy being able to detect their intelligence.

Yuan Jingxin had already asked about this question in advance, so he answered confidently: "Your Highness, according to this spy, there are six people responsible for delivering this information."

Hearing this answer, Lin Zhongyun's expression became even sharper.

He pondered for a moment, then immediately turned to Yuan Jingxin and ordered in a firm tone: "Pass my order immediately. At all costs, we must intercept these six people before they pass the information to Hailanhak."

Although Yuan Jingxin didn't quite understand Lin Zhongyun's intention, he immediately responded: "Okay, I'll tell someone to do it right away."

Although this task is very difficult for him as he is currently short of manpower, fortunately they are still some time away from Hailanhak's camp, so they still have a chance.

"Saving Zhongwu requires long-term planning."

He nodded. Although he knew in his heart that this was most likely a trap set by the Northern Barbarians, it was also an opportunity for him to turn the situation around.

He knew very well that although the road ahead was full of unknowns and dangers, if he succeeded, he would not only be able to rescue the trapped Zhongwu, but would also likely bring a turning point to the entire war situation.

Therefore, even though he knew it was most likely a trap, he would still jump in. He was willing to take risks because he knew that only in adversity could he find a chance to break through.

"Also, immediately find a few people who look similar to the Northern Barbarians and are fluent in the barbarian language." He continued to order.

He understood that the success of the plan depended largely on finding the right people to play key roles.

"Find a few people who can speak the barbarian language?" Yuan Jingxin frowned, feeling extremely confused.

He didn't understand why such a person was needed, but seeing Lin Zhongyun's determined eyes, he knew that he had to trust him unconditionally and execute his orders.

Lin Zhongyun looked into the distance, as if he was thinking about a more far-reaching plan.

He knew that this was not just a simple rescue operation, but an opportunity that could change the entire war situation. He already had a grand blueprint in his mind, and all of this was based on the successful rescue of Zhongwu.

"That's right!" Lin Zhongyun said seriously, even his voice became extremely low, "This operation is crucial.

We must not only rescue Li Zhongwu, but also use this opportunity to create greater chaos within the Northern Barbarians." His words revealed his unquestionable determination.

"We need to find a few people to pretend to be envoys of the Northern Barbarians and go to Hailanhak's camp to sow discord between him and Chagan Uli. It would be best if we could arouse the suspicion of the Northern Barbarians." Lin Zhongyun continued to explain his plan, and every detail was carefully considered.

Yuan Jingxin suddenly realized, and a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes. He understood Lin Zhongyun's foresight. Lin Zhongyun was not just planning a simple rescue, he was also planning a bigger strategic game.

Lin Zhongyun continued, "Didn't Hailanhak apologize to Chagan Wuli before?
We said Chagan Uli would not forgive Hailanhak." His words revealed a deep insight into human nature.

In this way, Hailanhak will definitely attack Chagan Uli if he is forced into a corner, and there will inevitably be gaps in his defense.

Lin Zhongyun's plan is closely linked, and each link is designed to create maximum chaos and opportunity.

Lin Zhongyun's words made Yuan Jingxin's eyes light up immediately. He continued to think along the lines of Lin Zhongyun, swallowed his saliva, and exclaimed: "In that case, we can definitely break through the siege and join the army after rescuing General Li Zhongwu!"

He finally fully understood Lin Zhongyun's plan and saw the hope of success.

"Not bad!" Lin Zhongyun nodded in affirmation. His plan was recognized and supported by Yuan Jingxin. In this case, the success rate of his plan would be greater.

Lin Zhongyun put his hands behind his back and his eyes became more determined. "Since the Northern Barbarians are determined to kill me, I might as well give him a big one this time." His voice was full of challenge and indomitable spirit.

Yuan Jingxin nodded solemnly: "I understand, and I will live up to your trust."

His words were full of loyalty and determination, and he was ready to do his best to complete the task.

Lin Zhongyun looked at Yuan Jing's departing back with satisfaction. He knew that every next step would determine the fate of the rebel army.

This is not only a rescue operation, but also a game concerning the future of the entire grassland.

At this moment, he felt relieved. In addition to finding a way out of the situation, the news that Li Zhongwu was alive also made him excited.

He slowly walked out of the tent, looked at the people with low morale, and couldn't help but want to tell the whole army the news.

He stood on a high place and announced in a loud voice: "Soldiers, I have an important news to tell you. We just got accurate information that General Li Zhongwu is still alive!"

This news was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up huge waves. The entire camp was suddenly in an uproar.

When everyone heard the news, they stood up, their eyes filled with disbelief and ecstasy.

Some people hugged each other, and some were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes. This shows the prestige of Li Zhongwu in the army.

"General Lee is still alive!"

"I knew General Lee wouldn't fall so easily!"

"We must rescue General Li!"

The soldiers shouted indignantly, their eyes full of fighting spirit. The eyes that had become depressed due to the consecutive days of defeat now rekindled the flame of hope.

Lin Zhongyun looked at the scene before him, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He continued, "The northern barbarians tried to use General Li to threaten us, but they were wrong! Not only will we not surrender, we will make them pay the price!
We must rescue General Li and let the Northern Barbarians know that the brotherhood of our righteous army is something they can never defeat! "

"Rescue General Li!"

"Defeat the Northern Barbarians!"

"Bring glory to the righteous army!"

The morale of the entire army was boosted again, and the camp was filled with thunderous shouts. The haze that had once shrouded the soldiers' hearts was swept away, replaced by a firm belief and determination to win.

Lin Zhongyun watched this scene with satisfaction. He knew that morale was crucial to an army. Now, they not only found hope, but also found a reason to fight. (End of this chapter)
