Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1762: Chapter 1764: Time to Use Your Head

When Ye Luo asked this question, the First Prince almost spat blood!

Everything he had planned was already ruined, and now he was being asked if there was any issue?

Wasn’t this a slap to the First Prince’s face, followed by some mocking comments?

The First Prince’s expression shifted several times, but in the end, he could only let out a faint grunt before exiting the tent.

Of course, he couldn’t show Ye Luo a pleasant demeanor, but he also didn’t dare to directly offend Ye Luo, so leaving like this was actually the best option.

Ye Luo didn’t mind, because as long as he couldn’t figure out the First Prince’s trump card, he wouldn’t dare to make a move against this guy.

However, what Ye Luo couldn’t have imagined was that the First Prince’s trump card was actually assassination?

Who could have given the First Prince the idea to try and assassinate Ye Luo?

Could he really believe that the First Prince’s power could match up to the Commerce Alliance?

However, the person sent to assassinate Ye Luo this time was somewhat special; it was actually a girl who had grown up together with the Third Prince!

However, she was noticed by a sect of the Demon Clan from the Eighth Region when she was very young and was taken there to cultivate.

She had now returned, but upon returning, her first task was to assassinate Ye Luo!

This girl, named Yin Yue, was a genius young woman from the Mad Lion Tribe!

But it makes sense, if she wasn’t from the Mad Lion Tribe, how could she attempt to assassinate Ye Luo at this time?

It’s a shame really, sending a female assassin to kill Ye Luo is destined to only serve him on a platter!

Or rather, it’s destined to be nothing more than a chance for Ye Luo to unwind.

In fact, the Mad Lion Tribe truly invested heavily this time, as this young woman held a significant position within the tribe. However, the cultivation techniques of the Mad Lion Tribe, as their name suggests, are generally quite fierce.

Only the women of the tribe would cultivate some of the softer techniques!

This girl was even more special; she had been personally guided by a famed teacher invited by the Mad Lion Tribe. Her cultivation had already reached the Seventh Rank Qi Cyclone Realm, and she practiced a mysteriously powerful cultivation technique with explosive power, combined with unmatched disguise and poisoning skills. Anyone targeted by her never escaped!

The Mad Lion Tribe invested heavily in her development!

Her appearance was quite delicate, making her the object of admiration within the Mad Lion Tribe.

But unfortunately, by now dispatching her to assassinate Ye Luo, she was likely only going to benefit Ye Luo!

Of course, the Mad Lion Tribe still had no idea about this, so the girl had already set off.

After driving away the First Prince and others, and conveniently resolving the instability of the Mad Lion Tribe, the Southern Territory became more secure.

After Ye Luo had prepared everything, he began planning how to counterattack.

The enemy’s strength was always much greater than what Ye Luo commanded. The reason the Southern Territory held until now was actually due to the advantageous terrain.

Ye Luo thought it over repeatedly, but still found that the forces of the Southern Territory were insufficient for a large-scale counterattack, even with the support of these demon beasts.

To defeat the enemy, they could only rely on strategy!

However, Ye Luo had one enormous advantage—himself!

It could be said that the Commerce Alliance loathed Ye Luo, wishing to kill him countless times!

Thus, Ye Luo himself was the greatest opportunity for their counterattack!

After three days of deliberation, Ye Luo finally devised a counterattack strategy, using himself as bait to set a trap!

At that moment, in the main tent, Ye Luo was starting to assign tasks!

”Ao Long, senior, you lead twenty thousand Wolf Clan warriors to lie in wait in this side valley. Use smoke as a signal—once you see the signal, launch a fierce attack here. Remember, unless all of you perish in battle, you must not cease your assault. You must exert maximum pressure on the enemy!”

In front of Ye Luo was a virtual projection of a terrain map.

This time, Ye Luo chose a river valley area!

Ye Luo’s main tent was established on this riverbank, with the only road to Three Stone City at the rear, surrounded by water on three sides. On the opposite bank, there were three roads that could be used to attack the riverbank. Of course, to attack Ye Luo, one must first cross the river!

”Feng Ling, you take twenty thousand men, along with one hundred thousand civilians, and construct massive fortifications on this piece of riverbank. Whether using various formations or strategic demon beasts, you must set them up to the utmost, to make the enemy immediately recognize this as our core stronghold!

However, how to specifically arrange it, I’ll give you a secret plan to follow!”

Outwardly spectacular and seemingly solid, in reality, this was a place Ye Luo could abandon at any moment. Of course, this task was entrusted only to the most trusted individuals, and the fewer people who knew, the better. In truth, only Ye Luo and Feng Ling knew the exact arrangements!

After all, Ye Luo couldn’t guarantee that there were no enemy spies in Three Stone City. If any part of his plan was uncovered, the battle could come at a huge cost!

Thus, Ye Luo would only let the enemy know what he wanted them to know!

As for what they shouldn’t know, Ye Luo would never let them know!

Afterward, Ye Luo quickly made further arrangements!

From all over the Southern Territory, new and veteran soldiers; this time, Ye Luo directly mobilized a full one hundred thousand regular soldiers!

One hundred thousand people might not seem like much elsewhere, but bear in mind, the roads in the Southern Territory are treacherous, with many strongholds and fortresses, and the garrison force is limited. Mobilizing one hundred thousand was actually the limit!

In fact, many of this one hundred thousand were elite forces drawn from various family powers or sects within the Southern Territory, given simple training, and thrust into battle!

Of course, beyond these one hundred thousand, there were seventy thousand demon beasts!

However, out of these seventy thousand demon beasts, only fifty thousand were displayed openly because twenty thousand were secretly dispatched by Ye Luo into the mountains, led by Mo Lu and Three Tailed Wolf.

They had set off long ago because they had to maneuver to the enemy’s rear before Ye Luo’s battle commenced!

On one hand, they would cut off enemy reinforcements for a time; on the other hand, they could assist in Ye Luo’s maneuvers when necessary!

Ye Luo had a habit of never letting his subordinates know his entire plan when it came to warfare. This was part of his confidentiality measures—not because Ye Luo didn’t trust them, but because Ye Luo knew that a little caution is always beneficial. If any part of the plan went wrong, the result could be the collapse of the entire campaign.
