Chapter 1771 The Crown (1)

Time stood still, and everything froze in place within the world of black and white.

Yun Lintian had no idea what was happening outside. Currently, he found himself standing inside a military camp. Several tents were scattered around the area, and soldiers in armor could be seen briskly walking back and forth. Clearly, they were in the midst of a campaign.

He carefully observed his surroundings and noticed a war flag with the word "Yun" etched onto it.

Yun Lintian often saw this kind of scene in movies like "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Back to the Past."

He also discovered that no one could see him. They simply walked past him as if he were a ghost.

After gaining a rough understanding of the situation, Yun Linitian attempted to circulate his divine energy but was unsuccessful. He was no different from an ordinary person at this moment. More precisely, he was just a residual soul.

"Hurry up! We will leave in two hours." At that moment, a robust soldier shouted loudly, and the others started to organize the camp.

Yun Lintian looked at the sturdy soldier, who appeared to be a platoon leader, as he walked into the largest tent. Without hesitation, Yun Lintian quickly followed him.

Inside the tent, three people were gathered around a sand table, contemplating the map.

The platoon leader walked into the tent and silently stood to the side, careful not to disturb the three people.

When Yun Lintian entered the tent, he was immediately stunned by the scene. It was because the man wearing a general's mantle was none other than Yun Yi!

What on earth is happening here? Yun Lintian was confused.

At that moment, Yun Yi suddenly raised his head to look at the entrance. He frowned slightly, clearly sensing that someone had been watching him earlier.

Yun Lintian was taken aback by Yun Yi's actions, but he soon calmed down. Obviously, Yun Yi couldn't see him.

However, it was a bit strange that Yun Yi could sense his gaze.

Yun Yi didn't dwell on it and redirected his focus to the map.

"General, I believe we need to change the route." A young man on Yun Yi's right side pointed at the map and said. "There are two mountains on either side here. If I were them, I would definitely set up a trap here."

This person was a rising star in the army, Zhao Long.

On the side, an old man in his sixties stroked his long beard and said. "The Chu and Liang armies have enough manpower to set up traps in every direction we choose. If we want to break through, we must be willing to make significant sacrifices."

The old man, Zhu Ning, looked at Yun Yi and said. "I have no opinion. You can decide it yourself, general."

His eyes were serene, knowing fully well that he wouldn't be able to return home.

Yun Yi had a solemn expression on his face. The burden on his shoulders was too heavy.

The Yun army he led this time was the vanguard, and he had to break through the blockade of the Chu and Liang armies at all costs. Otherwise, the Yun Dynasty would have no way to survive.

In the past years, the Chu and Liang Kingdoms had surrounded the Yun Dynasty from all directions and continuously destroyed fertile lands.

When food production declined, people suffered from famine and were forced to be displaced. Many of them had no choice but to cross the border and seek refuge in other kingdoms in order to survive.

Coupled with the corruption of various governors and internal strife, the Yun Dynasty was now on the verge of collapse.

lightsnοvεl Zhao Long sighed and said. "The heavens want to punish our Yun Dynasty. This situation would never have happened if His Majesty were still alive."

The former Yun Emperor fell ill suddenly and passed away five years ago. The Crown Prince, Yun Xing, ascended to the throne, but he showed little concern for the country's welfare and indulged in pleasure every day.

Zhu Ning looked at Zhao Long and said. "Watch your mouth."

Zhao Long shrugged his shoulders. "Did I say anything wrong? In fact, I don't understand why His Majesty chose the eldest prince instead of the second prince. Our Yun Dynasty does not have a tradition of having the eldest son as the heir at all."

Zhu Ning immediately fell silent. Compared to Yun Xing, the second prince was like heaven. He was a genius through and through, whether in martial arts or management. It could be said that the prosperity of the Yun Dynasty in the past was greatly influenced by the second prince.

However, when the previous Yun Emperor passed away, Yun Xing began to assert his authority and openly suppress the second prince. Right now, the second prince was imprisoned in his own residence and could not leave without permission from Yun Xing.

Whether it was Yun Yi, Zhu Ning, or Zhao Long, everyone here supported the second prince. Because of this, they were sent to the front line with the most dangerous mission.

To put it simply, they were sent to die.

Yun Yi frowned deeply. "Stop talking about it. Let's make a decision."

He pointed at a large river called the Black River and said. "Zhao Long, take our elite troops and station them along this route, awaiting my command."

Zhao Long glanced at the map and furrowed his brow. "General..."

"Are you questioning my decision?" Yun Yi's face turned cold.

Zhao Long quickly straightened his back and responded loudly. "No, sir!"

"Good. Go." Yun Yi nodded and gestured for Zhao Long to leave.

Thud!

Zhao Long fell to his knees and kowtowed three times. "Zhao Long has everything today because of His Highness the Second Prince and the general. If there is a next life, I am willing to become your servant again… Take care!"

Zhao Long got up resolutely and left the tent.

Yun Lintian, who stood at the entrance, could see Zhao Long struggling to hold back tears but failing miserably. Zhao Long's face was already drenched in tears as he walked out.

Zhu Ning glanced at the platoon leader, and the latter quickly left.

He looked at Yun Yi and said gently. "You are too kind, general."

Obviously, Yun Yi wanted Zhao Long and the elite soldiers to survive by sending them to the river where they could escape at any moment...
