Su Pingbei's battle plan wasn't particularly brilliant, but in war, all that mattered was victory. There was no need for fancy ideas.

However, this battle plan, which seems very sound, actually reveals a major flaw.

At once, a subordinate officer noticed this and spoke up, "General Su, I believe this is not advisable."

"If we split our forces, sending out light cavalry and 10,000 elite infantry, the remaining strength of the central army would be far weaker than that of the Eastern Isles. Furthermore, with General Su leading the charge personally, if the Eastern Isles were to anticipate this and concentrate their forces for a full-scale attack on our central army, there would be grave danger. Please, General, think this through carefully."

Su Pingbei waved his hand, looking full of vigor, and said: "When marching into battle, how can one avoid risks Those who come to the battlefield are not seeking peace. If they want peace and stability, they might as well go back and sleep warmly with their wives and children at home. Why bother coming to the battlefield for fame and fortune"

"My mind is made up. If the battle plan itself has no major flaws, and it's only a matter of taking risks, there's no need for further discussion."

Moreover, these days the East Ocean has been thoroughly demoralized and broken by our forces. Where would they find the courage to engage us in a decisive battle In this battle, my confidence is over 70%!

Su Pingbei's eyes blazed, scanning every person present. He exclaimed with fervor, "Fellow comrades, the opportunity to make a name for ourselves is right here before us. Don't hesitate!"

Once we achieve a great victory and return to the capital, Your Highness will each receive rewards. However, the current domestic situation is precarious, and wars with enemies at the borders and in the north are imminent.

"We have won, we are the court's valued soldiers, and we still haven't had the opportunity to be granted wives and titles for our offspring"

"So, these people from the East Indies are the foundation upon which we build our achievements!"

"Don't hesitate!"

Su Pingbei had said it all, and the rest of them were also fired up.

"I shall wait, obeying General Su's orders!"

"I await, following General Su's orders!"

Hearing the resounding and impassioned replies, Su Pingbei was filled with vigor and laughed loudly, "Alright then, let's decide who will lead the light cavalry in a surprise attack and who will lead the main force to encircle from behind."

An hour later, generals from all sides left the central army tent with their military orders.

After Su Pingbei finished this operational meeting, he didn't idle around. He went to the wounded soldiers camp to comfort and care for the injured soldiers.

As the supreme commander of this operation, whether it was a show or genuine conviction, it was imperative to boost morale, and Su Pingbei did not slack off.

But none noticed that an unassuming soldier, after the meeting, had quietly slipped away from a deputy general's side and sprinted towards the distant edge of the camp.

......

The East Palace of Beijing.

Li Chen, who had returned from the royal hunting ground, saw Su Zhen Ting.

Su Zheting brought over a battle report, the very one Su Pingbei had specially ordered to be delivered two days prior.

Li Chen took it and glanced at it, then put down the battle report and said: "This palace doesn't understand military affairs very well, but I can see that our army was already far outnumbered by the Tohoku forces. Dividing the troops further, while bold, will also multiply the risks. Can Su Pingbei handle it"

Su ZhenTing wryly smiled and said, “This battle report was sent out three or five days ago, expedited all the way to Beijing. Now, Pingbei has probably already begun executing it. It’s too late to try and dissuade him.”

Li Chen frowned and said, "So, General Su, you don't seem to agree with this plan either"

Su Zhen'ting said sincerely: "If it were me commanding personally, I would also choose this plan. But Ping Bei, after all, is still young and inexperienced. I am also worried that he cannot handle such a big risk."Chapter 1487: Midnight
