Situ Ba looked at the agitated Zhan Fei, but his expression did not change much. He stood in front of the sand table and looked at the geography of the Plain of Corpses, his expression grim.

“General Situ, don’t you think there’s something fishy about this situation?” As Zhan Fei looked at Situ Ba strolling about idly, he could not help but feel rather agitated. Now that Blaze Army had taken Ji Fengyan under its wing, and Yang Shun meant to protect her, he momentarily could not get at Ji Fengyan.

Worse, with the support of Blaze Army, it would be difficult to target Ji Fengyan and the Wolf Smoke Regiment on the battlefield in the future.

Situ Ba lifted his eyes and glanced at Zhan Fei. The pointer in his hand tapped lightly on the sand table. “Something fishy? What’s fishy about it?”

“Ji Fengyan and Yang Shun definitely mean to form an alliance. Now, your Green Nightmare Army is standing in isolation against them. Who knows what they mean to do.” Zhan Fei spoke gloomily.

Situ Ba was not worried.

“Yang Shun and I have fought covertly for many years. If he was really talented, Blaze Army would not be unable to hold up its head against my Green Nightmare Army. Be it the Wolf Smoke Regiment or Ji Fengyan, they are just a bunch of rookies. When they really enter the battlefield, they won’t have much fighting ability. Also…” Situ Ba placed the pointer on the sand table and looked at Zhan Fei calmly.

“Do you think an alliance between their two armies will be of any use? Wolf Smoke Regiment only has ten thousand over men. Does it count for anything?” Situ Ba’s arrogance showed in his words.

It could be said that he had always looked down on Ji Fengyan. He intended to fulfill the Eldest Princess’s request without much difficulty. In Situ Ba’s eyes, only Yang Shun counted as an opponent.

“Yang Shun is already thirty-four. For a terminator, that is already near the age limit. Why do I need to worry about a person who is about to die and a little brat?”

Zhan Fei was momentarily taken aback. Although he had been commanded to cooperate with Situ Ba, based on his status, he did not dare to argue with Situ Ba forcefully.

“Rather than spending your time here worrying, why don’t you just wait for a couple of days. That young arrogant brat will hand you an opportunity without you needing to make any effort.” Situ Ba gathered his breath and spoke slowly.

Zhan Fei’s eyes suddenly brightened. He knew what Situ Ba was referring to.

“General Situ is wise. I had almost forgotten about that. Ji Fengyan has remained in the army camp for the past few days without going out, and she has sent no one out for an inspection.” A trace of malice flashed across Zhan Fei’s eyes. Situ Ba had reminded him of a crucial point.

A crucial point that could trip Ji Fengyan up badly.

The military pledge.

Situ Ba saw that Zhan Fei had grasped his meaning and nodded slightly.

“The appointed time is within the next few days. Then, you can bring out the military pledge. Even if Yang Shun supports her, what can she do? Now, you just let her have a few carefree days. Also, why don’t you speed up the departure of the Ping City residents from the army camp. I believe that with Ji Fengyan’s personality, she will take the hands-on approach and she won’t be able to attend to all these miscellaneous matters.”

The corners of Situ Ba’s mouth curled in the trace of a cold smile.

“Hasn’t Ji Fengyan always been concerned about the citizens? Then let her make the appropriate arrangements for them.”

“General Situ, thank you for your guidance. I will make the preparations.” Zhan Fei hurriedly thanked Situ Ba and hastily left the tent to prepare his plot against Ji Fengyan.
