Chapter 1326: How Can This Be Any Milder?
....Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He wondered if this person was treating their lives as mere child’s play.
“Stop talking. What’s the use of saying more?”
The other deputy general looked equally grim, if not paler.
During the battle, Zhan Beiye’s deputy general stabbed him in the back and nearly killed him. He had to consume many medicinal pills to be able to stand here and discuss matters with everyone.
If Ming Fucheng had been present, he would have slapped him.
He had never seen a commander so indifferent to this situation; not only did he disappear, but none of them knew where he had gone.
“We must report this defeat as soon as possible. How about this? Let’s report the news that His Highness is not in the military camp.” They refused to take the blame for Ming Fucheng.
“Is that okay?” The other deputy generals looked at him.
The commander’s absence during the war was a serious offense. Even if he were a prince, he would still be punished.
But Ming Fucheng was the most favored son of the Yueming Emperor. If they reported this, the Emperor might not publicly blame Ming Fucheng. Instead, their families might be implicated.
The deputy general asked, “Why not?”
Ming Fucheng was not in the camp and was untraceable. Was this reasonable?
“If you’re afraid, report it a bit more mildly,” he said.
“How can this be any milder?” one of the deputy generals asked.
How could this complaint be even cla.s.sified as mild? In any case, it would hold Prince Ming Fucheng responsible for the failure of this battle.
“We’ll say that His Highness has disappeared. There’s no news of his whereabouts. We don’t know if Zhanling Empire has captured him, and that’s why we lost the battle,” the deputy general suggested.
It was true that they lost a city because of Ming Fucheng’s absence.
The other deputy generals were speechless.
They did not believe that Zhanling Empire had captured Ming Fucheng. If that were true, why would Zhan Beiye have to resort to such drastic measures to attack the city? He could have easily used Ming Fucheng as a bargaining chip.
He could have used him in the same way he used Yue Suiyu. Yue Suiyu died mysteriously because of her bad luck with the cold -blooded and ruthless Ming Fucheng.
However _ it was different this time
In any case, Ming Fucheng would never be in Zhan Beiye’s hands.
“Are you sure the Emperor won’t hold us accountable for failing to protect His Highness if we report this?” another deputy general asked.
“He won’t.” The deputy general shook his head.
He continued, ‘We’ll say that His Highness’s shadow guards went missing with him, and we suspect that the leader of the shadow guards has some inexplicable connection with Zhanling Empire. That way, we won’t be implicated.”
He had to teach Ming Fucheng a lesson. This matter must not be brushed aside so easily. They had lost a city, and it was a border city.
Someone had to bear the responsibility for such a significant matter.
He did not want to be responsible for this, and he believed the other deputy generals would not want to either. Hence, Ming Fucheng had to bear the responsibility.
“You don’t want to bear the responsibility of losing the city, right?”
The other deputy generals lowered their heads. No one wanted to bear such a huge responsibility. It was not like they were unafraid of facing the chopping block.
They did not want to take on the blame, so they naturally blamed this on Ming
Fucheng..
