Long Ao Ming nodded.
Sometimes, result was the most important thing on the battlefield and not the process. A capable general, if he had made a fatal mistake, could be removed from his position immediately.
No matter how capable he is, there would be many people who would magnify his mistake.
It was also because of this that those who were at the high position had to tread even more carefully. Because if they were to make a mistake, there would be many people who wanted to pounce forward and dragged them down.
Power is tempting.
Many people wanted to obtain power and for that, they could do many things that might have crossed the bottom lines of many other people.
What happened to the Shangguan Family could be said to be extremely ironic, full of blood and tears. From family drama to their subordinate problems, the Shangguan Family suffered a lot in this period of time.
Moreover, there were not many descendants of the Shangguan Family left.
“I understand,” Long Ao Ming replied.
Prime Minister Xian nodded and then proceeded to the map in front of him. “Now, this will be your assignment for the next year…”
…
Long Ao Ming stretched his hand once he got out of the side halls. Prime Minister Xian was a very good prime minister with sharp and broad ideas.
If Long Ao Ming had to say, Prime Minister Xian was one of the few people whom he genuinely respected. But at the same time, he also understood that Prime Minister Xian was someone who was specifically trained for war era.
His vision and methods, were all towards war and so on.
“Great General Long.”
Hearing this call, Long Ao Ming resisted the urge to sight and quickly cupped his fist to the person who arrived. “Prime Minister Lan.”
“Would you like to take a walk to the gate?” Prime Minister Lan asked with a smile on his aged face.
He was no longer young and after working in the Imperial Court for several years and tried his best to protect and paved way for Emperor Yang Zhou, he looked even older. More than half of his hair had turned white even though he was around the same age as Long Ao Ming.
His back was also a bit hunched, no longer showing the powerful and rigorous demeanor he once had when he was young.
“Alright,” Long Ao Ming replied.
The two of them used to work together on the frontline in the past. In fact, Prime Minister Lan became a general faster than Long Ao Ming in the past. But in the end, Prime Minister Lan retired earlier and no longer stayed on the frontline.
It could be seen that Prime Minister Lan was doing a good job on the court.
There were not many people who would not listen if Prime Minister Lan said something.
“Great General Long, I’m sure you know that the next war is already being planned,” Prime Minister Lan said slowly.
Long Ao Ming nodded.
Right now, Great General Wei was located at the north border of Fei Yang Kingdom against Fan Yi Kingdom. If there was nothing wrong, then Great General Wei would be tasked to wage a war against either Fan Yi Kingdom or Qi Xi Kingdom.
And it would be a long and brutal war.
Of course, if they could launch a decisive attack, then that would be for the best.
“Fei Yang Kingdom couldn’t stand an upheaval from another side,” Prime Minister Lan said slowly. “I hope you can deal with the problem quickly.”
Prime Minister Lan naturally knew what task was assigned to Long Ao Ming. After all, he also participated in the discussion between Prime Minister Xian and Emperor Yang Zhou. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
It was also because of this that he understood almost all personnel who could be moved in Fei Yang Kingdom were already used. If Long Ao Ming couldn’t deal with the problems in Shi Long Kingdom, it was estimated that the war against Fan Yi or Qi Xi Kingdom would be prolonged.
When this happened…
It was estimated that many lives would be lost from Fei Yang Kingdom and there would be many other complicated matters that arise.
The best way was for Long Ao Ming to thoroughly destroy the opposing voice on the East without asking for help from other generals who would be busy in other areas.
“How much time do I have?” Long Ao Ming asked.
“One year,” Prime Minister Lan replied. “Two years at most.”
Any more than that, the resources in Fei Yang Kingdom would be stretched thin and it would be hard for them to sustain the war for a longer period of time. And if they continued to suffer losses like what happened at the early war against Shi Long Kingdom…
Many officials might start to refuse starting a big war again.
Because the economic situation in Fei Yang Kingdom would not be able to support it.
“One year….” Long Ao Ming murmured.
He had seen the map and the overall situation of the place from Prime Minister Xian not long ago. In his opinion, even if these people were to make trouble, they couldn’t truly make trouble against him.
But if he had to finish it all in such a short period of time…
It wouldn’t be that easy.
Long Ao Ming took a deep breath.
A general had a lot of responsibility on their shoulder and Long Ao Ming felt it very clearly at this moment. Because whatever decision he made, it would affect countless lives who were on the frontline and also the people under him.
“I understand, I’ll do my best, Prime Minister Lan,” Long Ao Ming replied slowly. “Thank you very much, Great General Long,” Prime Minister Lan replied and then cupped his fist respectfully. “I couldn’t help much, but I wish the Heaven be with you, Great General
Long.”
Long Ao Ming smiled. “Thank you for your kind words, Prime Minister Lan.”
