Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 1299 Use

Zhou Huailing was about to speak when he heard the anxious words. He turned more serious and stopped what he was about to say. He glanced at Junyi, who nodded. Zhou Huailing looked at the approaching man and asked, “What happened?”

Junyi arranged those messengers. He had been expanding his network from when he started to work as his strategist, until this moment, when the capital was filled with his messengers. In other places in the Saint Divine Land, there were people working for him as well.

They were back from the border, but they had many messengers settled at the border too.

They would be the first person that received the news from the border, just like how the news from the court could come to them first.

!!

Zhou Huailing had thought that this was just a waste of time and energy, but when the network was fully settled and he received the news first, he was very satisfied.

With a teacup in his hands, he looked at the person calmly.

The messenger replied. “Crown Prince, the news from the border says that the situation is not very optimistic. After Feng County was lost, Ning County was lost too. Duke North can’t hold the forces and has retreated to Xinzhou. Duke North is badly injured and is receiving medical treatment in the clinic. The news will reach the King tonight, so in the morning session the next day, the King might need to find a new chief to lead the army.”

Having said this, the messenger stood still.

Those messengers were all intelligent people, who were very effective in collecting all kinds of information and making predictions. For example, they were able to tell what would happen the next day through the news from the border.

Therefore, Zhou Huailing could get everything prepared for the next day without making mistakes.

Zhou Huailing nodded.

He understood what was happening, so he told the messenger to retire.

He had predicted that the border would keep on losing to the enemies. He was not shocked and he believed that it should happen like this.

Jiayu Pass was lost when General Liu was in charge. He was kind of responsible too. He lost Feng County, and he was responsible, so if Duke North held Ning County, then he as the Crown Prince would be humiliated.

So it was only reasonable that Ning County was lost.

Junyi had predicted that as long as Jiayu Pass was lost, the towns around it would be lost too. What they needed was to keep the capital as well as the Phoenix Girl safe.

So he was very confident.

He looked calm, sipped the tea and looked at Junyi. “What do you think we should do next?”

“Ning County has been lost, and the army retreated to Xinzhou, which is better than Ning County, in terms of goods and houses. We even have some troops stationed at Xinzhou as well, but compared to Ning County, Xinzhou is not as strong, so Xinzhou will be lost very soon too.”

“…”

“If that is the case, we should take good advantage of North Qi!”

“How?” Zhou Huailing asked seriously.
