"Honorable envoy, who is this kid? Does he have a say here?"
Zhu Chong and the two others looked coldly at Jiang Xiaobai. All three were seasoned battlefield generals with countless campaigns under their belts. They hardly needed a young boy to tell them how to deploy their troops.
Hei Gu said, "Three generals, you best listen to him. We're here to help you tonight, not to harm you."
Feng Chao said, "We can't yet confirm the truth of what you say. I'll send scouts to check it out."
With that, Feng Chao called in a few men from outside and instructed them. They took their orders and left.
Jiang Xiaobai exchanged pained looks with Hei Gu. These fellows were as arrogant as Prince Zhen Nan; only a bloody defeat would wake them up.
"Are you certain you won't follow my advice?" Jiang Xiaobai said. "Putting a few cannons on the hill, does it cost you anything?"
Cui Huai chuckled, "Setting off cannons in the middle of the night might mess up the troops' morale."
