King Ning stared at Li Chen, his anger surging once more.

If he could, he truly wished to dismember his nephew before him into a thousand pieces.

This was the first time he had been so popular.

"What if I said no" Ning Wang asked coldly.

Li Chen said calmly, “You can't get out of the barracks.”

"Hey!"

King Ning laughed, "When I was charging into battle, you were still in your cradle. Now you dare threaten me with life and death"

"Do you think I'd fall for that"

"Whether you eat or not is your business."

"I'm only responsible for doing it."

Li Chen said coldly, "You don't need to talk about age. Just because someone is older doesn't mean they are useful. Why not have the court bring all the people over eighty years old in the country here and let the Liao army kneel and beg for mercy There's no need to fight and die for so many years."

But will the Liao army

Some people live their whole lives without a clear purpose, drifting through it blindly. Others, even at a young age, can shake the very foundations of the world.

King Ning roared angrily, "Are you calling me a fool!"

"Uncle Wang."

Li Chen frowned and said indifferently, "Now that the Liao army has crossed the border, it won't be long before they reach here. While you have time to dawdle with me, I don't have time to waste on you."

"If Uncle Wang is determined to go against me to the end, then I might as well bury him here. First, I'll deal with Uncle Wang. Even if I lose in the end, I can still find a way back to the capital and use the strength of the whole nation to drive back the Liao army. At worst, I'll just lose half my territory. That's better than compromising and handing over the entire empire."

“Of course, Uncle Wang could superficially agree and use this as an excuse to return to the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry camp and immediately attack the Liao army from both sides. Then I would surely lose. But let me reiterate, Uncle Wang must guarantee that my nephew will stay here forever. Otherwise, as long as my nephew can return to the capital, then with the entire country's resources, the first target wouldn't be Liao, but Uncle Wang, this traitorous person!”

Li Chen's eyes sparkled like stars, deep as an abyss. He looked at King Ning calmly and said in a soft voice, "Father Emperor, are you not yet dead"

Ning Wang's expression changed drastically.

He could feel the determination in Li Chen's words.

Also confident, Li Chen is truly capable of delivering on his words.

If one chooses to stand against Li Chen, he will definitely go all out to deal with them first.

Even the Eighteen Cavalry of Yan and Cloud, as powerful as they were, couldn't compare to the might of the entire nation behind the imperial court. Moreover, the Liao army was watching with hungry eyes.

Do not say anything about cooperating with the Liao army. The two sides cannot reach a cooperation agreement in a short period of time, unless King Ning is willing to suffer huge losses and surrender, but once he does so, he will truly become a sinner of the Qin Empire.

The King of Ning wanted the throne, not to be a criminal.

To fight against Liao was almost tantamount to forfeiting all his chances of ascending to the throne.

The common people and intellectuals would never agree to this.

Slowly clenching his fist, King Ning's expression was extremely expressive.

After a moment of change, King Ning's face returned to calm, and then he loosened his fist.

Two hours.

Prince Ning said coldly, “This is my bottom line. Once casualties exceed 30%, the Yan Yun Sixteen Riders will immediately retreat.”

With a slight narrowing of his eyes, Li Chen said, "40 percent."

"You!"

King Ning was furious, but seeing Li Chen's impassive face, he suddenly smiled.

"Like father, like son. Li Chen, you have the bearing of your father."m the blue. Each question sent shivers down the spines of the already anxious officials.Without hesitation, the officials all shouted in unison: "From Gansu to Shaanxi, officials and people are united...
