Having never experienced decades of being relentlessly beaten, one cannot truly understand the excitement that comes with such a fundamental shift in strategic position.

Li Chen wasn't considering Wu Ban Shan's feelings right now. He was thinking about how to safely and effectively wipe out the Liao army completely.

After a moment of contemplation, Li Chen turned his gaze to...the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun.

"This palace needs the Eighteen Riders of Yan Yun to march out and delay the Liao army for at least four hours."

As soon as these words were uttered, the three high-ranking generals of the Yan Yun Sixteen Riders changed color.

Among them was also Wu Yong, the commander of the current Iron Pagoda.

Their faces were grim, but they didn't immediately voice their opposition. Instead, they glanced at the Prince of Ning.

As expected, King Ning's face was even darker than theirs.

The King of Ning gave a knowing glance.

Wu Yong received the hint and understood. This was King Ning's way of wanting them to take the initiative in opposing, but... Wu Yong pretended not to understand.

Instinctively, he knew he couldn't make a move right now.

So he subtly winked at a general standing beside him.

That general's name was Chen Bai.

Seeing the look in King Ning's eyes, he couldn't help but want to speak up, but unfortunately, Wu Yong's status was higher than his, and he couldn't steal the limelight from Wu Yong.

Now that Wu Yong had let him speak first, Chen Bao was naturally pleased.

With a look of disdain for Wu Yong's cowardice, Chen Bao stepped forward and addressed Li Chen in a loud voice: "I'm afraid the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun...cannot accept Your Highness's mission."

Chen Bai seemed to completely ignore Li Chen's emotionless expression, and arrogantly said: "The Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun had an agreement with Your Highness long ago. The Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun can send troops for Your Highness, but they will never appear on the front battlefield, let alone act as the main force. Your Highness also agreed, but now Your Highness goes back on your word, which is disgraceful."

Li Chen's face was as cold as ice, and he said indifferently: "When did this palace make any agreements with your Yan Yun Sixteen Riders"

Then, before Chen Bai could respond, Li Chen raised his voice and reprimanded, "The Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun are nothing more than a troop under the imperial court's command. According to your rank, your commander is only a third-rank military officer. Where do you have the qualifications to negotiate with this palace!"

The Yan Yun Sixteen Riders held a special status. The position of commander was always vacant because the king personally handled all military affairs.

But in terms of military organization of the Qin Empire, the nominal highest commander of the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry, that is to say, the Commander-in-Chief, was indeed only a Third Rank official.

So, what Li Chen said was reasonable and justified both emotionally and logically.

Chen Bai was choked speechless. He completely lost his arrogance from before and said with some lack of confidence: "But, but the Prince just told us that."

This statement is utterly devoid of political acumen.

Even a greenhorn knows this is a big problem.

Not only did he expose his incompetence, but he also put King Ning in a precarious position.

As expected, King Ning's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Li Chen didn't give King Ning a chance to react. He sneered at Chen Bai and said, "When did it become your Yan Yun Sixteen Riders' business to interfere in matters between me and King Ning"

Chen Bai himself realized at this moment that he had spoken wrongly. Feeling flustered and ashamed, he blurted out: "In short, the Eighteen Riders of Yan Yun will definitely not take on Your Highness's task. Your Highness can take back the order."

As soon as these words were spoken, the King Ning's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. He thought to himself that things were about to go awry.

"Indeed, Li Chen roared angrily, "How dare you!"

"The Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun command this palace to rescind the imperial decree. Is this the attitude of the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun toward the Great Qin Empire's Crown Prince! If this palace does not withdraw the decree, will you Sixteen Riders mutiny against this palace!"
