Chapter 812 - 809: Opportunity
Which one will make him renowned in all nations?
Which one can truly be considered as avenging the Fourth Prince?!
This is self-evident.
Cao Renyi was eager for merit, but he also knew he could not be careless when facing the Princess of Zhen. His gaze swept through the camp as his mind raced, trying to find a way to break the current weak position.
In just a few breaths, Cao Renyi came up with a plan. He tightly gripped the hand of his trusted subordinate beside him, and calmly said, "Immediately, take the crossbowmen... No matter what, you must kill your way behind the Jin army’s commander tent. Soon, I will shout for our soldiers to take the head of the Princess of Zhen! The Jin army will surely protect the Princess and retreat! You must get the Princess’s head, or... after this battle, we will have no chance of turning things around in the Liang Kingdom!"
The Liang commander glanced at the only tent with lights on amid the thundering sounds of battle, clasped his fists, and shouted to Cao Renyi, "I will charge into the tent and fetch the Princess of Zhen’s head!"
"No!" Cao Renyi grabbed his subordinate, urgently saying, "All the lights in the Jin army are extinguished, only one tent is lit. Could the Princess of Zhen be a fool—waiting for you to come and kill her? There must be a trap in that tent! Go... sneak around to the rear! Quickly!"
Cao Renyi did not doubt that Bai Qingyan might not be in the camp at all. But he noticed messengers coming and going from the tent, so even if Bai Qingyan was not in the tent, it would be a major general from the Jin Kingdom, perhaps Zhao Sheng or Yang Wuce.
No matter who it was, as long as they could take the commander’s head... the Jin army would be in chaos!
