The Perfect Destiny

Handsome Broken Legged Little Military Advisor [3]

At this time that Chen Liguo had come to this world, the Yan Country Army was going through a very embarrassing period.

At this time, there was not much rations and fodder in the army, but the offensive power of the barbarians has not reduced. If the Yan army continues on in this snow and ice, the soldiers who have nothing to eat might commit mutiny out of despair.

The officers at the top all knew this, so the atmosphere within the general’s tent was very heavy.

Chen Liguo was pushed into the tent by Yan Jingyi.

“Your Highnesses, Lord Ji, this way please.” General Chen arranged a seat for the newcomers and once again discussed the matter at hand. The matter which they were discussing was nothing else but how they could make the Eastern army barbarians attack on their own accord rather than wasting so much time with them.

Chen Liguo and Yan Jingyi, contrary to what one might expect, had a strong tactical understanding, and the two men just listened and didn’t interrupt the discussion by giving their own opinions.

The atmosphere of discussion became more and more heated and Chen Liguo who sat in the midst of this heated atmosphere felt a little sleepy. He lifted the cup on the table in front of him and took a slight sip. As a result, Chen Liguo almost spurt out the drink in his mouth. He had thought that this was tea, but it was actually wine!

The entire face becoming red, Chen Liguo covered his mouth, his body unable to resist trembling, Yan Jingyi who sat next to him and had never spoken caressed Chen Liguo’s back as though with good intentions and asked, "Lord Ji, what’s wrong?"

Chen Liguo shook his head.

Yan Jingyi said, "Could it be that Lord Ji has never drunk wine?"

Chen Liguo managed to stop coughing with great difficulty and glared at Yan Jingyi. How could he not discern in Yan Jingyi’s tone that he was taking delight in other people’s misfortune.

Yan Jingyi was glared at by Chen Liguo, but the smile in his eyes became even worse. He said, “I never realized before that Lord Ji is so interesting.”

At this time, Chen Liguo’s original pale face, because of a series of violent coughs, became red. Coupled with his angry appearance, it gave Yan Jingyi an amorous feeling he had never encountered before.

"Don’t know what sort of idea Lord Ji wants to add?" As the two were interacting, a voice came from the side. Chen Liguo looked and found that it was a junior general under Yan Jingyi’s command who was looking at him with a bad look.

Chen Liguo calmly shook his head: “Don’t have.”

It was unknown whether the young general had been given instructions or if he simply found Chen Liguo unleashing to the eye, but he laughed ironically and said, "It is said that Lord Ji is so wise he is like a monster, today I find that is not quite so......"

Chen Liguo’s expression remained unchanged, his tone indifferent: “Oh.”

Young General: “...”

Yan Jingyi also didn’t expect that Chen Liguo unexpectedly wouldn’t eat this set of aggressive tactics. He gave a low smile, “Lord Ji, please don’t lower yourself to my subordinate’s level. If you have any method, you should speak out sooner, these are the lives of countless officers and soldiers and you mustn’t play around.”

Chen Liguo looked at Yan Jingyi with a profound look and said, “Since Third Prince already has a solution, why bother coming to make things difficult for Ji Shang?"

Yan Jingyi had no laughter in his eyes: “What does Lord Ji mean?”

Chen Liguo said, "Third Prince has already caught the spies, but I’m afraid that the matter is not as simple as cleaning out the military, right?"

Yan Jingyi narrowed his eyes.

Chen Liguo said, “In addition, in the past few days I noticed that the soldiers in the army are in high spirits, not at all like how the army would be without and rations and fodder.”

Yan Jingyi was still silent.

Chen Liguo said: “If I guessed it is right, rations and fodder will come to the camp in a few days, right?”

Yan Jingyi clapped his hands and laughed: “Lord Ji is indeed wise.”

Chen Liguo covered his mouth with his hand and coughed heavily. He said, “Now that the matter has been settled, Ji Mou^[1] is not feeling well and will ask to be excused first.”

Unexpectedly, Yan Jingyi no longer made things difficult for Chen Liguo and said, "Someone come, send Lord Ji back."

Chen Liguo said, “Slow down... Your Highness, where is my servant, Le Qi currently? Call him to come and see me back.”

Yan Jingyi said, “Alright,”

A moment later, a crying Le Qi came in from outside and pushed Chen Liguo out slowly from behind.

Yan Jingyi didn’t have the intent to send Chen Liguo back either and simply looked at Chen Liguo’s expression, even more interested.

Chen Liguo said, “Where have you been?”

Le Qi felt wronged and said, “This, this group of people are simply unreasonable, absolutely insisting that I must cook porridge for them.”

Chen Liguo said, “Did you cook it?”

Le Qi said, "Naturally I cooked it."

Chen Liguo asked, "What sort of rice grain did you use?"

Le Qi was puzzled, "What does Lord Ji ask this for? The rice used was good polished rice^[2]——"

Chen Liguo nodded faintly and sighed, “Sure enough.”

Le Qi asked with a blank expression, “What does Lord mean?”

Chen Liguo laughed and said, “It’s nothing. In the next few days make sure to rest properly. I’m afraid we’re going to have a war with the barbarians in two days.”

Le Qi obediently sounded an ’oh’ and wondered, “But isn’t it that they don’t want to fight us? Why is there going to be a war?"

Chen Liguo said lightly, “There is not much food in the army.” The third prince deliberately made the appearance of requesting for grain and fodder to force the barbarians to rob the grain. Deliberately killing of so many spies before this was probably part of Yan Jingyi’s plan.

Le Qi scratched his head, but still did not seem to understand, his appearance foolish, but utterly adorable.

Chen Liguo looked at the boy’s lovely appearance and sighed in his heart, “Such a cute child, why exactly is he a spy on Third Prince’s side......”

Yes, Le Qi is a spy, even more, a spy under Yan Jingyi’s control. Who knew when he bought over Le Qi, but according to Chen Liguo’s observation of the original world, he believes that it must have been during this period of stay in the army that Yan Jingyi incited Le Qi to rebel.

However, the spies don’t matter, Chen Liguo doesn’t have anything to be ashamed of anyway.

Arriving at the tent, Chen Liguo ate the food and medicine prepared by Le Qi and began to cough lowly again.

Le Qi anxiously said, "Milord is sick again...."

Chen Liguo said in a dull tone: “No problem, you go and do your own thing, don’t worry about me.”

Le Qi was still a little worried, but when he saw that Chen Liguo seemed a little sleepy, he put Chen Liguo on the bed and covered him with a heavy quilt, and then turned to go out of the tent.

Chen Liguo’s body was really not good. Although he did not stay up very long, once he lay in bed, he soon fell asleep.

In the next few days, the atmosphere in the army changed from the previous period of repression mood and became more active.

Not only did the soldiers stop eating porridge, but they also ate meat which they hadn’t eaten for a long time. It was almost like the Spring Festival.

Le Qi also helped Chen Liguo bring fresh meat, but Chen Liguo didn’t want to eat it. He said, “You eat it instead, I don’t have an appetite.”

Le Qi said, “But Milord, you haven’t eaten meat for a long time”. The military environment is arduous and there are not many things that the sick could eat.

Chen Liguo still shook his head and sighed a long sigh.

Le Qi said, "Why does Milord sigh?"

Looking up at the snow-covered mountains, he said quietly, “I don’t know if I will ever see the land of Yan Country stretching over the four countries in my lifetime.”

With tears in his eyes, Le Qi said, “Milord must see it.”

Chen Liguo withdrew his gaze and in his heart gave himself a full score for the pressure he had put out.

He not only knows what Yan Jingyi wants to do but also knows all the next developments, so he knew very well that the next battle was going to be a victory.

After the big loss for the eastern army, Yan Country did not give the eastern army any chance to breathe and used six years to destroy the country of the eastern army directly.

Chen Liguo half-closed his eyes, seemingly sleeping but also seemingly thinking.

Le Qi stood at his side, but no longer had the naivety look that he had ordinarily, and looked at Liguo’s eyes with an ashamed but firm look.

Ten days later, the Eastern army sent troops to intercept the Yan Country’s rations and fodder.

Unsurprisingly, the so-called rations and fodder was a trap set by Yan Jingyi, and the troops sent by the eastern country were completely overthrown.

On the 12th, Yan Jingyi, taking advantage of the victory, led a solitary army of iron horsemen deep into the rear of the eastern army battalion and raided the eastern army battalion under the cover of night. The eastern army was caught unprepared and their army camp was directly destroyed.

Yan Jingyi beheaded the general of the enemy army and then retreated.

On the evening of the 13th, the Yan Country troops arrived and annihilated all the remaining troops of the eastern army.

Thus the great war ended.

Chen Liguo met Yan Jingyi on the morning of the 14th.

He and other similarly ranked people waited for Yan Jingyi’s arrival in the snow. The morning sun had just risen and the snow reflected a radiant orange.

A thread of black appeared on the horizon. The black was getting closer and closer, it was indeed a rider.

Yan Jingyi was wearing black armor, holding a long spear, and his face was still covered with coagulated blood. Although he was smiling, there was a hint of fierceness within it. He said, “I have returned.”

Everyone said, “Respectfully welcoming Your Highness back.”

Yan Jingyi laughed loudly and said, “Great victory!”

The crowd cheered.

Chen Liguo also smiled faintly, his eyes swept over Yan Jingyi and met Yan Jingyi’s eyes.

"Lord Ji."Yan Jingyi walked slowly to Chen Liguo’s face and suddenly bent down slightly. There was a faint smell of blood on his body but Chen Liguo was not averse to the smell.

“Lord Ji, good birds choose trees to live in.” Yan Jingyi’s voice was low as he whispered in Chen Liguo’s ear, “My second brother is not a good master. If you want to come to me, I will welcome you at any time.”

Chen Liguo blushed unreservedly. He said nothing and pushed his wheelchair around and left

When Yan Jingyi saw Chen Liguo’s actions, his smile faded. He apparently regarded Chen Liguo’s blush as anger and Chen Liguo’s turn as rejection.

Yan Jingyi’s eyes became exceedingly cold, then became exceedingly fervent. He seemed like a hunter who found his favorite prey and couldn’t wait to put it into his bag in the next second. But he enjoyed the process of hunting very much. He was confident that this person who has rejected him will become his person sooner or later.
